saga claims that st. Brendan was
the first missionary to carry the
Christian Faith to Iceland. Another
Irish account tells of Irish priests
going to Iceland in 795-more than

their invasion of the island.
All this happened centuries af-
ter st. Brendan's death, but mean
while a theory existed that the
Irish saint had been the first ac-

ing to the theory, St Brendan
made the discovery while on sew

or the Isles of the Blest, in the
company of group of monks es-
timated to number between 18 and

The story, written by NCWC
staffer Thomas Doyle, declared
that among indications of pre-Co-
lumbus settlements on the Ameri-
can mainland are the Celtic type

By coincidence, the excaya-

of St. Brendan. The new Gaelic
Missal published in Dublin in 1852
speaks Of him as "a great traveller
who. in his zeal for souls, sailed
away into the distance" II says
that "he and his crew are said TO

Brendan is recorded as having been
born in 484 and having died in

only approximate
The first recorded settlement on
the North American mainland was
that of Left Ericsson, the Norseman,
in the year 1000. He reached re-
gion named Vinland, or Wineland,
which has never been definitely
identified. The neighborhood of
Boston has been fixed upon by
some, and monument to Ericsson
has been erected there. Others
placed Vinland in Nova Scotia, and
as late as 1910 il was claimed TO
lie north of the st. Lawrence Riy-
er. An even more recent theory
placed Vinland on Cape Cod, near
Dennis, Mass.

that there were Irish settlers In

Board Opposed
In Move to'Replace
5 Nun Teachers

COSGROVE, Ia.-(NC)-0pposi-
ton has cropped up against an or
der issued by the Cosgroye Con-
solidated School Board to replace
five nuns of the Sisters of Humil-
ity of Mary with lay teachers this
fall in the Cosgrove public school
here.
Nuns of the community began
teaching in the school so years
ago, when it was opened as a pa
rochiaI school. In 1920 the school
was purchased by the state and be
came a part of the Cosgrove Con-
solidated District. but the nuns
continued to teach in the school,
weathing their religious garb but
removing their crucifixes before
entering the school.
Opposition to the school boards
order has come from the school dis
trict Parent Teacher association. A
special P-TA committee has asked
the County Attorney William Tuck
er to rule on the legality of the
issue and also has asked for a rul-
ing from the State Attorney Cen
erals office.
James J. Meade, school board
president, said the state Depart
ment of Public Instruction threat
ened to halt state aid payments to
the school because it was operated
illegally" by employing nuns as
teachers, and it was for this rea-
son that the board ordered the
nuns replaced. He disclosed that
in 1854 state aid to the school
amounted To $4,000 of total bud
get of $4,000. Mr.. Meade said the
board plans to hire five lay teach
ers for the school before the fall
term begins. Three of the five nuns
have taught in the school for 35
years.

ENDERLE AND
TWAREk NAMED
TEAM CAPTAINS

I Clyde Enderle and Bob
Twarek were announced this
| week by Coach Bob Green as
co-captains of the 1954-55
Port Clinton high school
basketball team, their selec-
ton made on the basis of attitude
toward team and coach, coopera-
ton, team spirit, ability and
craftsmanship.
That great basketball players
are not necessarily six-footers is
evidenced in their selection, for
neither Clyde nor Bob top the five
foot-seven inch mark in height.
What the two lacked in height,
said Coach Green, they made up
in competitive spirit, aggressive
ness, and desire to play the game
to the best of their ability.
Clyde was selected for his fine
competitive spirit and great de-
fensive work. He always drew the
assignment of guarding the op-
ponentS' top offensive stars, and
did an outstanding job in this de-
partment Clyde averaged only 3.9
points per game but in holding
down the stars of other teams he
was worth more to his teammates.
Clyde displayed the type of team
work and team spirit that every
coach looks for in boy but rare
ly finds, sand Coach Green.
Twarek was tie second highest
scorer on the ball club. He played
every quarter of the 16 games and
was the teams best driver. His
floor generalship pulled the squad
through tight ball games and kept
them in there all the way. Bob'S
best offensive performance was 26
points scored against Gibsonburg
in the 69-68 Porter victory. His
75.2 foul shooting was highest on
the squad.
Big John Bergman was the
teams highest scorer, racking up
210 points, game average of 1871,
and had the most field goals, IS.
Twarek made 85 goals percent
age of 75.2, for the team record
in this department. High games
were: Bergman, Lakeside, 80;
Twarek, Gibsonburg, 26; Bergman,
Tiffin Columbian tournament, 81;
Bergman, Willard, 20; Bergman,
Norwalk, 20. Bergman had the
best tournament average, 15.5,
followed by Papcun, IA.
Total points for Varsity players
during the season just ended by
the Porters with a record of five
wins and IL losses, were: Berg
man, 210; Twareky 205; Carter, 129;
Meek, ga; Papcun, 90; Ball Sc;
