Last Sunday morning saw
a larger than usual crowd in
the congregation to hear one
of the advertised pulpit ora
tons by the Pastor; and they
were not disappointed. Read
ing from Isaiah A: 14-17, he
impaired new light on Truth,
turning the search light on
to those who spent many
years and much vitality in
the eradication of the desires
of the flesh, and then give
God what is left, the last few
years of their lives. Senior
choir and Lydia Kennedy's IN
termediate Choir supplied mu-
steal numbers. March 20 has
been chosen for the annual
Women's Day, and the wo-
men are rallying around Chair
man Sarah Collins for a great
showing.

Everyone was delighted TO see
the wonderful job done by our
boys and girls of the second grade.
Our PTA president, Mrs. c. NJ.

at Mt. Vernon school with Mrs.
A. w. Biggers presiding.
A panel discussion on The Pres
en- Day Report Card" was enjoyed
by all. After Mrs. Biggers opened
the discussion, she gave several
suggestions concerning the grad
ing system The teachers partlci-
pating in the discussion had ga
thered much of their information
from various literature. but more
of the information came from eX-
periences derived from many years
in the teaching profession. Some
of the points considered in the
panel discussion We're:
(A) Does the report card let
the child and the parent know how
the child stands?
(B) Should the card tell whe-
ther the child is doing his grade S
work or doing work according to
his ability?
IL Z PdlICliSbo tiAi4iAAAASA'A'
agreed that personal contact with
the parent is the best report OF all
These contacts may be made
through conferences or through

said that the Commission report,

Congress, with huge and misrepre-
Sented dollar signs. Having fail
ed on previous attempts to con-

the Hoover Commission latest
report is an attempt to do the job

Speaking for the Veterans of

report as an underhanded attempt
by anti-veteran groups to jam
down the throats of the American
people, selfish inspired program
in the guise of economy. Com
mander DuSenbury said Il pledge
every resource of the VFW. in

such, the Congress, representing

Among them are the right to hos

to those not able to pay for it, and
to a meager pension, where by rea-
son of age and disability, they are

Six Changes
In Basketball
Rules Next Year

KANSAS CITY. Mo. The
National Basketball Rules Com
mittee has announced six changes
including one that will make the
bonus free throw rule applicable
for the entire game.
In announcing the rules changes
in Kansas City. Secretary H. V.
Porter of Chicago, said:
college coaches had proposed
the application of the bonus rule
throughout the game, but we de-
layed adopting the change pend
ing experimentation. Experience
from more than 10000 high school
games and many collegiate con-
tests disclosed satisfactory re-
suits"
Porter said the revision will ap-
ply to all games - college, AAU
and YMCA. Porter added:
I'VE hope to eliminate the COM
plant that many teams stall un-
til they get into the last three
minutes"
THE RULE CHANGES
G-The bonus rule adopted
last year permitted a player an
extra shot if he made the first
one. All fouls were worth two
shots in the final three minutes
The new change eliminates this
and makes the bonus rule effect
i've for the full 40 minutes.
t2p-Apother rule widenS the
free throw lane from six to II
feet. This change. however, is re-
stricted to the college and AAU
level. High schools and YMCA
players will use the siX-foot lane
GA third revision will allow
an official to call held ball after
five seconds if player appears to
be trying to run out the clock.
N-Another change will give
team two free throws and pos
session of the ball if a technical
foul is called.
(5-The fifth change elimin-
atPs the delayed whistle for jump
pail VlOlatlOn.
(6)-Another change was made
but it only affects high school ano
YMCA players. A rubber covered
ball will be used starting with the
1956-1957 season. Porter said that
if one team demands the use of a
rubber covered ball, the other
team will have to comply.
RULE COMMENTS
Commenting on the widening OF
the lane. Porter explained that the
cnanoe should cut down the par
ade to the free throw line which
The public dislikes. Porter said
that research showed that most
fouls are made in the area around
the blackboard.
