IFS Enter Bright '55 Forecast
For Wheaton, Clenmont Area

many special events and one of
them will be the big splash party
to have the boys and girls go on
down to the YMCA for a big
swim. Everyone in the area is
invited.
I love to write about the ac-
tivities of these teen-agers that
are doing such a fine job for
their groups.
These teen-age groups that are
under the leadership of the Coun-
ty Recreation Department are
serving a dual-purpose. The
dances, the games ETC., are just
one phase of the many programs
to be planned for the coming
year 8.
During the holidays some of
the boys and girls, Jerry Powers,
Anna Myers, jeanne Weekly, AL
ice Hipsley, Mike Pfiffer, and
Mike De Simons, all attended a
full day leadership Training Pro-
gram that was held at the Glen
brook Recreation Center.
The prime purpose of the pro-
gram was to train officers of
these clubs to conduct better bust
ness meetings, teach them how
to lead discussions, plan parties
properly and interest the groups
they are to lead in all sorts of
games.
This is a tall order. Just ask
any adult that has to chair a
meeting or lead a good group
discussion and he'll be the first
to say that he wished someone
had given him a few tips on how
to keep the group in line.
Not only was it educational but
after the sessions, refreshments
were served and a good time was
had by all. 4

Despite the over shadowinJ
problem of school room for it.
ever-increasing junior population
bright New Year was foreseel
this week for the Wheaton-Glen
mont area by Robert T. Snure
County Councilman from the
area.
There was a basic assumption
behind Mr.. Snure's forecast. i
rests upon the continued and in
tensified interest of residents OF
the area in civic affairs.
Il visualize a bright future for
Wheaton, and Glenmont," Mr.
Snure said. Supporting that Wis.
ion is your active civic and com.
munity interest, your determine
ton to see proper zoning and
planning, your adherence to pa
rental responsibility, and your
keen interest in local government
participation.
"The ingredients are in your
hands. Plan and build well for
to-day and tomorrow"
1t is difficult to realize that
after so many months of prepara-
ton the holiday is ending.
How pleasant it was to be
caught up in the whirlwind of
gift-buying, parties, children,
children and more children.
Now that the music of the mer-
ry-go-round has died away,
once again see the Wheaton
Glenmont people settling down
to the normal way of life, con-
centrating on children, children
and more children.
Space is found for their new
toys and clothes. How simple it
is to be able to store the old to
make room for the new.
Storage of old children into
schoolroom closets to make way
for the newcomers, of course, is
out of the question, but housing
them properly is one of the big
issues to confront "Our Town" as
well as the county.
There is a $30,000,000 deficit at
Annapolis that has to be met.
Only a balanced budget can be
presented to the Legislature, so
the extra money must be raised
through additional taxes.
After all, Wheaton and Glen
mont will contribute their share
and the people here will be
watching the politicians closely
to see how and where the money
is spent.
AT the next meeting of the
Wheaton Citizens Association, to
be held on Wednesday,, January
20, at the Wheaton Recreation
Center, the entire question OF
public swimming pools will be
discussed.
This is but one example of the
many groups and people there
are to write about in Wheaton
and Glenmont.
Looking back it is phenomenal
that so much has been accomp.
lished either through the above
association, or the Chamber OF
Commerce, Homemakers, Health
Committees, the newly formed
Montgomery Co-u ty Citizens
Committee on School Issues, The
Citizens Committee to Unity
Montgomery County Planning
and all of the others that have
been covered.
1t just doesn't seem right to
have to meet a deadline over the
New Years weekend.

it.

Everytime l call Dick Davis,
the group leader of the Glenmont
Junior and Senior Groups, I'm
always so unhappy to learn that
I've missed one of their dances.
One of the best was the Christ
mas dance sponsored by the Jun
ior Group. Over 200 youngsters
came to dance to the music of
the Serenaders, play games and
just have a good time. 1t was a
huge success. Without the aid of
Mr.. and Mrs. Myer, Mr.. and Mrs.
Hipsley, Mr.. Ferrar, Mr.. Rice
and Mr.. and Mrs. De Simone,
Dick claims he would not have
been able to manage.
The committee who was re-
sponsible for that glorious af.
fair was Alice Hipsley, chairman;
Mike De Simone, Jackie Rice, Di-
anne Dorr, Patsy Blair, Dickie
Reed, Carol Newton and John

Church 10 Vote
On Ordination
OF Women

LOS ANGELES. May % P.-
Presbyterians vote today on pro-
posals to ordain women as min
listers and to criticize what the
Protestant group termed a pro-
gressive trend by Roman Cath
olics to exalt the Virgin Mother.
The two issues come before the
167th General Assembly of the
Presbyterian Church in the
United States of America as it
resumes business sessions con-
tinuing through Wednesday.
The lengthy statement on "the
Marian cult in relation to the
lordship of Christ and the unity
of the church" was offered by
the Presbyterians' Permanent
Commission on Interchurch Re-
lations.
$50 Delegates
The commission asked the as
sembly's $50 lay and clerical
delegates, representing 2,658,90
church members, to approve the
statement.
After noting that last years
assembly asked the commission
ito study the significance of the
Marian year in relation to
Christ's place in the Christian
religion and to the unity of the
church which he founded" the
commission reported in part:
"The festivals in honor of the
Virgin Mary which marked the
Marian year of 1854 set in bold
relief the status now accorded
to the Mother of our Lord in
Roman communion.
in the celebrations of that
year the progressive trend to
exalt the figure Of the Virgin
Mother to the Office of associate
partner in the work of redemp-
ton reached its eliminating
point. Mary of Nazareth has
become co-redemptrix with her

cur In another Christian COM
munion. Only when such de-
velopments affect the very core
of the Christian religion can
such a course be justified.
Breach Widened
1.-THE development Of the
Marian cult has widened ihe
breach between the Roman
Catholic Church and all other
Christian communions.
"In the figure Of the Virgin
the Church Of Rome has created
a semidivine female being who
becomes virtual head Of the
church, the hope Of all who are
distressed and the sovereign
overload of all that occurs in his
tory. The devotion to Mary now
equals. and even exceeds, the
devotion to Christ himself"
The committee on the ordina-
ton of women to the gospel
ministry proposed that the
church's constitution be amended
to read: Both men and women
to the gospel ministry proposed
that the church's constitution be
amended to read: Both men
and women may be called to this
Office"
The committee report notes
that women in the church are
now ordained as deacons and
ruling elders and adds in part:
There is no theological
ground for denying ordination
to women simply because they
are women"

related colleges and universities
are winning their battle for sur
vival, report today to the 4Sth
annual meeting of the American
Baptist Convention asserted.
DR. M. C. Ballenger, director of
the denominations Department
of Schools and Colleges. told the
1000 delegates and 5000 Wis
itors that 1854 marked a change
in the downward trend for sur
vival of American Baptist
church-related schools Of higher
learning.
1.-THE recent past has been a
crucial era when they (the col
leges) fought for survival against
growing costs. shrinking endow-
ment income. paucity of gift in
come, and the competition of
unsupported institutions" DR..
Ballenger's report said.
Students Increasing
Several notable factors are
heralding victory for most of
our colleges. One such factor
is the enrolment of students in
steadily increasing numbers. In
fact. reliable predictions Of dou-
bled or tripled college-age pop
ulation by 1870 reveal new prob
lens which we must anticipate,
Another factor is a compare
lively new source of income
industrial support OF private
education. rejecting a whole
some and widespread determi-
nation to maintain the balance
of public and private higher
education in America.
For many Baptist schools. a
third substantial factor is new
income from churches. In area
after area, Baptists are coming
to see the wisdom and necessity
of institutional budget support
for colleges"
Small Victories Counted
DR.. Ballenger then pointed out
that token appropriations"
from the denominations unified
budget to the colleges have
helped them ito take forward
steps where they count f1nan-
ciallly-in recruitment, in fund
raising. in services to churches,
in moves toward accredition. If
the small victories of this year
can be broadened by the stew
ardship and leadership of Amer
lean Baptists, the banner Of
Christ will be prominent in the
future triumphs of higher edu-
cation"
There are 20 colleges and uni
versities, having a student en-
rollment of 27,167, affiliated with
the American Baptist conven-
ton. They include the Uni
versity of Chicago, Bucknell
University and Bates and Colby
Colleges.
Delegates to the convention,
which opened last Wednesday
and closes tomorrow, represent
5000 American Baptist churches
having 1.6 million members. The

of Second Baptist Church. Phil

gram director of the convention.
