equally unacceptable would it be
to say that his words are without
meaning and without value. Gods
revelation of himself is inward.
No man has seen God at any time
with physical eyes. Spirit meets
with spirit and then we speak
what we greatly feel in all the
ways expression is available to
US. For the Word to be made flesh
and dwell among us must mean
that God and mankind may live in
an intimate spiritual relationship.
1t must mean that our develop
ment in spiritual experience and
resourcefulness is a matter of per-
sonal privilege and responsibility.
The meaning of Christmas is
not only that the world of long
ago may know the true and living
God through Christ, but that you
and 1 may have personal and
Transforming experience with God
through him now. How may such
a wonderful thing happen to us?
We must guard against a fanciful
and unrealistic approach to Christ
and Christmas. We are not dealing
with legendary or otherworldly
creature. One of the first heresies
the early church strenuously OPP
posed was the announced belief of
some that Christ was not a human
being. He was, they said, God
masquerading in a human body
which was not subject to actual
and normal regulations. This
group found themselves not only
in the minority, but they were re-
pudiated by the church. The lead
ers of the church who had lived
with Christ said that such an idea
about him was utterly false. He
was, they said, "the first born
among many brethren. What he
was became the purpose and goal
of their own living. Saint Paul
made the bold statement, "for me
to live is Christ" Jesus had said,
Because have overcome the
world, We too shall overcome" "All
things l have learned of my
Father 1 have made known unto
you" eye shall indeed drink of my
cup and be baptized with the bap-
tism l am baptized with" Great
er things than l have done shall
we do"
The true meaning of Christmas
is that God has come to live with
US that we might permit him to
live in US. He will not transgress
our sovereign will. We are cap
able of supreme devotion to him.
Christ chose tina supreme
devotion. He became of his
own choice and of his own great
struggle a completely God-con-
trolled and God-filled person. He
invites US into fellowship with
him in this glorious experience
"Come after me-" he said, take
up your cross, and follow me-"
If we appreciate Christ, if we
accept him as our friend, compan-
ion, and Saviour, something to
sing about will happen to US. In
the holy sanctuary on the Sabbath
Day we will join those who say:
20 fill me with thy fullness

NEW YORK, July MAN
ager Leo Durocher of the Giants
today called his brilliant bullpen
duo of Hoyt Wilhelm and MARY
Grissom the best in baseball and
i challenged anybody to refute his
statement.
SHOW me another relief
! pitcher as good as either Will
helm or Grissom," Durocher de-
manded, "let alone a pair as good
as this one. My two are the
greatest. no doubt about it"
I'll let you in on a little
secret" Leo added. "If the
Giants win the pennant this
year, it will be won in the
bullpen."
The 51,464 fans who watched
Grissom win his eighth game of
the season with a sharp four
inning relief stint against Brook
lyn Tuesday night, and the
1858 spectators who saw Will
helm subdue the Dodgers again
with a brilliant rescue job yes
terday. could have no rebuttal.
Wilhelm's performance was
one of his best of the season. He
entered the scene in the. eighth
inning with runners on first and
third and nobody out and the
Giants holding a 81 lead. AS if
the situation wasn't precarious
enough, Jackie Robinson stood
poised at the plate welding his
ever-dangerous bat. Waiting
right behind him were Gil
Hodges and Roy Campanella.
The 30-year-old knuckleball
expert stood up to the situation,
holding Robinson to short fly to
left that failed to advance the
runners and getting Hodges to
hit into a double play. The

Durocher Challenges Anyone
To Match Wilhelm, Grissom

Giants went on to pick up three
runs in their half of the eighth
to win, So. and boost their first
place lead over the Dodgers to
three games.
Wilhelm did not receive credit
for the victory. It went to
Johnny Antonelli, the young
southpaw ace who became the
second lefthander to defeat the
Dodgers this year. Ten have
tried it. Harvey Haddix of the
Cardinals is the only other left
handler with a triumph over the
Dodgers.
1t marked the 18th game this
season that Wilhelm worked in
a winning game. Since June IL
he has been in nine games and
the Giants have won them all.
Grissom, the 36-year-old screw
ball artist, who was dropped by
the Red Sox last year, has an
even better record. He has
pitched in II winning games and
owns an 3D. record compared
to Wilhelm's 60.
Last year." Durocher said,
Il had only one good relief
pitcher-Wilhelm. He did. a fine
job for me but. being human,
he needed rest now and then.
When Hoyt was unavailable, I
was pushed. This year, though,
I've got two. That enables me
to give both sufficient rest and
still get the most out of them"
Ignoring the Dodgers Jim
Hughes and Glen Labine, Du-
rocher said the only other re-
lief pitcher to compare with his
guys was Frank Smith, the side
arm Highlander of the Reds.

The Women's National Open
golf championship got under way
at Salem Country Club today
with a prediction by Louise

as the professionals.
Miss Suggs, leading money

statement on the length of the
6,393-yard, tree-lined course on
which the 72-hole three-day
medal tourney is being held. Par
is 36-36-72.
There are a lot of long-dis-
lance hitters among the anna
teurs this year like Joyce Ziske,
Mickey Wright and Pat Lesser
and that's what this course re-
quires," says Louise.
TITS long course with plenty
of sloping terrain that requires
deep, high arching drives" she
adds.
And its generally agreed that

local girl, drives the ball as hard
and far as any of the 81 profess

field.
Still, no amateur has ever won
the event in its eight-year his
tory and the five previous win
ners still hold the key to the
Open. Babe Zaharias. Miss Suggs

champion, have won twice each
