CLOSING REMARKS
81 Hon. r. H. Amphlett Leader
Opening Program Inter-Island Athletic Meet.
Parade Ground. May .28. 1852
r. H. Amphlett Leader

deliver the address Of well
come to the visitors. /.
In presenting Administrator
.Canegata, who introduced
Governor de Castro, Nh.
Leader said that we were pri-
viledged to have with US today
a man who is supposed to be
the greatest Sport in the Vir-
gin Islands-His Excellency
Governor Morris de Castro.
For when his Administration
IS praised-he is supposed to
take it as a Sport, and when
his Administration is censured
wisely or unwisely-he is
supposed to take it as a Sport.
And now he is about to be in
troduced by another great
rt-Administra Cane,
gaia, who at one time gave St.
Croix one of its best football
club and one Of its best crick-
ct team, and was largely in
strumental in having ST. Croix
cricket mentioned in Barba-
dos, Trinidad, Jamaica, and
even in England.
, 1952-05-31

In introducing Hon. Chris
tian S. Chase, Chairman Of the
Municipal Council, Mr.. Leader
said that he was a member of
the Citizens Committee that
had managed certain sport
events in the past years; had
given his moral and financial
support to things athletic, and
was a fit and proper person to.
, 1952-05-31

Ladies and Gentlemen:
Come we now to the end of
the opening exercises of the
inter-island athletic meet.
The forerunner of the
games we are about to play
was the Olympic Games of the
Greeks. In those games only
Greeks Of pure descent could
take part. Foreigners might
watch the contests; but Wo-
men were not permitted to be
among the spectators. His
torians tell us that the civili-
cation of Greece was a bright
as the monday sun" Be that
as it may, / have oftimes
wondered what kind of people
were those Greeks who did
not allow their women folks
to see then at their games!
Were we following the Greeks
today, not even Mrs. de Cas-
tro, the first lady of the land,
could witness our games. How
far we have travelled from
the Greeks in this particular
is evidenced by the presence
of women not only among the
spectators take a look and see
how many of them are
around), but their sex is pro-
minently among the partici-
pants. Some progress, I would
say!
NOW CdIIIOI Say 10 OQT
visitors that I would like them
to take off the honors Of the
meet. / cannot say it because
II do not wish it. However. / do
wish, indeed I know, that they
will do something as impor-
tant as carrying off the honors,
and that IS they will "play the
game / wish you a pleasant
stay and an en- 10 yable
tournament.

Editorial
ALL OF SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
THE POSSIBILITIES Of the Hands Across the Sea
Scholarship Awards are almost endless. Here is a venture
which has for its principal purpose the investment in the fu-
ture Of these islands through scholarship opportunities for
the youth Of today, and frankly there can be no greater
investment from the standpoint of the community. While tall
and stately buildings will stand for a given time, and roads
will transplant vehicles, and great amusement places provide
relaxation and diversion from the monotonous cares of life,
yet the investment in young people will provide the spiritual
and intangible growth which will transcend all that is purely
material.
IT HAS NOT been long since the idea Of popular educa-
ton began making in-roads into the thinking of these islands.
Time was when an education was a luxury pure and simple,
and that meant that only a chosen few with money could ven
twe forth. The ambitious youth Of courage and intelligence
had to content himself Tor herselH with whatever was at hand.
But not any longer. And here is where the Hands Across the
Sea Awards plays its big part.
BUT THIS CORPORATION the Awards did incorpor-
ate, and wisely goes further and does more look at the list
Of members will convince the observer that this venture IS
surely bringing together groups Of persons from both sides in
a common venture which is sure to be productive Of the LOTT
est results. People in New York, Virgin Islanders and others
who are interested in education, give Of their time, energy and
money to see that youth from this way get their chance to
take a seat in some Of the great places Of learning. An exam
pie of the cross section which serves this committee is found
ii Dr.. Kingdom, former college president, educator, lecturer
and writer, who takes time out to chair the programs and
work behind the scenes. Then there are women who, in addi-
ton to their domestic duties take time out to attend meetings
and render valuable aid. On the mainland for example, is Mrs.
Poston, wife of the New York Post columnist, Ted Poston,
and 400 miles away Mrs. Ann Y Holland, Mrs. Pearl Lar
sen, Mrs. Anna Brodhurst, Mrs. William Gregory, Claude O.
Markoe, Anders Petersen, Mrs. Ozema Johnson and others.
AS TIME MOVES on it is hoped that more and more
citizens on this side Of the Atlantic will offer Of their time,

money and energy Nothing could give greater, deep down
satisfaction than the knowledge that whatever is done will
be one more step towards creating a finer and better citizen
shin for the future Of these Islands.

BORDER CHURCH NOTES

Rev. c. NJ. Sexton spoke on
very interesting subject at last
Sundays morning worship. when
he spoke on MANY Names II
was a subject that to us was I'M
usual and one to which very little
attention is paid. His scripture
reading was lisa. 9:1-7. He said, in
part, that all things have to have
names. People have from one TO
as many as five names. He spoke
of the names given everything at
the creation and that science has
ever recognized these names. He
said that everyone should have
their names engraved in the ar
chives of the church.
Most interesting was the many
names by which Jesus was called.
Isaiah, who was known as the
Gospel Prophet, long before the
birth of Jesus, called Him, won
derful", for the things He could
do. He was called Mighty
Counselor. Everlasting Father"
and THE Prince of Peace" Rever-
end Sexton pointed out what a
worthwhile mid-week service
service could mean to the church.
All visitors were made welcome.
Next Sunday, Jan. 6, the sub
ject will be "Life's Race" Scrip
ture reading, Heb. 12:ff. At the
Vesper hour. the Methodist Men
had planned on having Geo. Bar
ton as the guest-speaker of the
evening, but an unexpected bust
ness call forced him to be absent.
However, Rev. Sexton, who is al
ways equal to the occasion, spoke
in his place and brought a won
derful message, which was thor
oughly enjoyed by all, The sub
| jeCt of his talk should have been,
The Zeal of Hezekiah." The text
was Saken from 2 ChrOn. 1:20-21.
He spoke of Hezekiah organizing
the church into districts and all
the leaders preaching tithes. He
said that he, Hezekiah organized
the first church store-hOuse. He
closed by saying That today is
the hour of decision" After the
program. refreshments were ser
we'd in the recreation room. Vesper
services next Sunday, from 6 to 7.
Come out and get a spiritual up
life from these fine services.
