cinnati fans.
Mills pre-game act has won
high acclaim from diamond men
and although his stunts deal pri-
marily with comedy, the climax
of his zany performance is as
dramatic as a Broadway theater
production.
Several years ago Mills thought
of developing Babe Rutn's famous
called home run at Chicago. At
first he satirized the incident but
following the Bambino's death,
Billy decided to reverse the idea
and make it a sober moment in
baseball history.
His portrayal of this feat has
been highly successful. Reports
from every park he has per-
formed in indicate that his dra-
matte recreation proved to be the
high point of his act.
Mills pantomine routine con-
cludes his hilarious show in which
he includes a variety of acts
geared to keep youngsters and
adults alike fully entertained.

FRESHMEN INITIATED

Miami's seven freshmen are
now enjoying life as members of
the Hampton Institute family due
to the emancipation of initiation.
The initiation which lasted for
three weeks is one ordeal that
will long be indelibly stamped on
the memory of each.
Green caps, dog" (boys) and
"dogette" (girls) tags, along with
green ribbons, all symbols Of
freshman initiation, will probably
be placed in scrapbooks of MEM
Tors. Parents will possibly hear
more about this phase OF coIlege
life than any other. If any fresh
man were asked to make a COM
ment concerning this, more than
likely they would say: ut was
rough, but 1 enjoyed it." You
readers can be assured that next
falls freshmen will get the same
or similar treatment. It's all in
fun though.

OF sacrlflclal giving In our
hearts that dictates that no.
thing is too good or costs too
much at Christmas time for
those we love and admire.
Certainly there is no other
day in the year when so many
people feel akin, even TO the
poorest clad stranger on the
road.
On no other day do people
feel so glad to be living and
able to enjoy the warmth of
the merry Christmases" that
ring through the air.
No wonder the not too dis
corning person may see too
much "commercialism in
Christmas" We in America
are 160 million strong. We re-
quire much merchandise for
our gifts of love to families
and friends. II the stores fur
nish those needs is that not
proper and is it not their func-
ton.
We send millions of Christ
mas packages of food, clothing
and toys TO the unfortunate Of
other lands. That activity
alone requires financing, pur-
chasing, wrapping, shipping,
all of which is a part of com
merce.
Those of us who go home TO
see the folks for Christmas will
either motor, go by bus, rail-
road or plane. II takes oil, gas,
employees to get us home for
Christmas and that's part of
commerce. Surely, no one
would begrudge the money we
spend TO see our loved ones
on Christmas no matter where
they may dwell.
Life in a modern world is so
complex that unless we think
carefully we may fall into the
habit Of caviling at even the
great celebration of Christmas
as too commercial. Our modern
society has grown and pros.
pered because Of industry and
commerce. The free enterprise
system from which our pros
perity has come is based on
wise commerce.
