You can't help wondering what
would have happened il Kentucky
had been permitted to play basket,
ball in the Southeastern Conference
this season.
With the Wildcats sidelined fol-
rules infractions, the state Of Lou.
isiana presented the best, and the
state of Georgia the poorest, brand
of basketball the Sc Ceffered.
Louisiana State won the title,
which Kentucky has . habit Of
grabbing, and Tulane was runner
up. Georgia Tech and Georgia fin
ished 10th and 18th, respectively.
Kentucky repeatedly Is as strong
as ever and impatient for net sea-
son to roll around SO Coach Adolph
Rupp's Wildcats can get back into
the thick Of things.
If the Wildcats had been In ac-
ton this season, il seems probable
! that the LSU-Kentucky game would
have decided the conference cham
pionship. LSU was indicated In
SEC play, an accomplishment usll.
ally reserved for the boys from
the Bluegrass.
The picture for net season is
rosy for LSU, too. All Of the top
players who gave the Tigers their
first undisputed championship in
20 years are eligible for at least
one more year Of basketball.
The final game Of the conference
season was Saturday nights Mis-
sisSippi State Mississippi tilt.

Robert (Cob) Jarvin, who got a
points, and Ralph Ross, who got
20, Ole Miss smothered State, S.
as. Gerald Caveness was high for

LSU, which, as c onferen c Q
champ, automatically goes to the
NCAA tournament, also produced
the top average scorer In the SEC
Bob Petit, for two years an all
SEC and second team Al-Ameriea

When The Bible Does
Not Sneak

Some people think Of the Bible
as kind Of rule book Well. there
are rules in il, and some OF them
are applicable to our modern prob
lens But We have some problems
IN modern living that the Bible
says nothing about For instance:
Shall a Christian use tobaccoo is
il sin for the Christian to bear
arms These and many other ques-
tons are not dealt with in the Bible
as fatty and sharply as Thou
shalt not steal" For this reason.
many Christians think that if the
Bible does not mention some prob
lem in so many words. they are
free to do as they please about it.
BY no means. The Christian is
free from the law as curse. as a
condition Of God favor. or as
cage; but he is never free from
the law OF love. And since God IS
love, and since love Is the law Of
our life as Christians. then the
Bible always does have something
TO say about every situation. 1t has
at least this to say What does love
God kind of love suggest?

major cause of the tragic world depression
In the realm of defense and foreign re-

Crop Controls?

THERE are strong indications that quotas
for several Of the major crops are almost
inevitable for 1854 Farm state congressman
IN Washington have recently predicted that
quotas on cotton in 1854 were almost GER
tain. Others have expressed the belief that
quotas on wheat will also be necessary next
year. Other crops face the same prospect
Under present law the Secretary Of
Agriculture requests farmers to vote on the
imposition of quotas. The pressure for thc
quota system increases proportionately with
the size Of the Governments crop holdings
Under its price support program the Gov
eminent already holds some 50o,o00.0o0
bushels Of wheat. If this years wheat crop
exceeds one billion bushels, as some expect

lowing advice. which we recommend to the
young man or woman Of America in 1858:
Make no little plans; they have no
magic to stir mems blood and probably
themselves will not be realized Make big
plans ann high and hope and work, re-

Hydrogen Bombs

Deans testimony was the first confirma-
ton that the huge y t, G plant, built to pro-
duce hydrogen bomb materials, had started
operation, In addition to commenting on the
production of hydrogen bomb materials.

the wheat carry-oVer will be increased
A similar condition prevails concerning
cotton holdings Of the Government Reduc-
ed foreign buying has tended to increase
the carry-oVer of several crops. Either the
Government can reduce its price support
level and let the law Of supply and demand
control production, or it can seek to limit
production by the quota system and hold
prices At high level. In the end, the De-
partment of Agriculture may utilize both
alternatives, to a limited degree
Quotas on crops now in surplus supply
seem highly probable; the fight over high
price supports and flexible price supports

call the lneptnesS of our foreign policies

off world wide frenzy of restrictive trade
agreements, barter arrangements and uni
lateral trade pactS. Our policy also stimu-
lated the development Of the quota system,
as used by France, prior to World War II,
which strictly limited the amount of L. s.

Opportunity Abounds

ROGER II. BIough, vico-chairman Of the
Board Of the United States Steel Corpor-

Susquehanna University that this country
now offers more opportunity for youth than
At amy other time in our history. He told the
young graduates, In no other hour in the
worlds history could YOU have picked a bet
ter time to start wrestling with more really
fine opportunities or more ready dangerous
problems crying to be solved"
This is theme which ha, been over

and significant.

Freedom And The Spirit

Some Christians have made the
mistake Of thinking that if per
son is spiritual enough. he viii be
set free from all human obhCa-
tons. They have supposed that the
law of love. in the sense Of love
to ones neighbor, is on lower
plane somehow than love Of God
and that if a man once gets up in
the stratosphere Of the divine love.
then he can simply forget the
world outright. No one who takes
his New Testament seriously can
make that mistake Read in Gal.

JACK KALB is
QUARRY VICTIM

Jack Kalb, 10-year-old son or
Mr.. and Mrs. Paul Kalb, Monroe.
Mich, was drowned Thursday
evening while swimming with his
mother and younger brother, Chuc-
kie, in North Quarry Hole, near
Monroe.
Sheriff Carl Fritz of Monro e
said that Jack was swimming to-
ward an inner tube in 35-feet of
water when he was drowned. The
body was recovered by sheriff's
aides.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Kalb are for
mer members of the Port Clinton
High School class of 1884. She was
the former Miss Katherine Warden
a niece of Mrs. Earf Wilson, West
Third Street. Mr.. and Mrs. AL
Kalb, East Second Street, are the
paternal grandparents of the vic
tim.
When Jack was drowned, the
boy was wearing swimming ac-
cessory water experts termed as
death mask" A good swimmer,
Jack was drowned after executing
a dive in about 35 feet of water.
Life guard Andy Raft blamed
the underwater swimming mask
for the tragedy. He said the mask
acted as vacuum when the lad
tried to breathe through his nose.
Raft said this caused the mask to
fit tighter and tighter around the
lads face, cutting off air, and
that when Jack tried to breathe
through his mouth, he took in
water.
His body was recovered about
one hour later so feet off the
shore. Witnesses said he rose to
the surface after the dive, groped
futilly for an inner tube that was
floating nearby, and then sank
from sight.
Funeral services were held Sun
day afternoon in the Allard and
Holcomb Funeral Home, Monroe,
with burial in Port Clinton's Riv-
erview Cemetery.
