Mass was said in Murray City, in
the old opera house, on March /,
1908. The large crowd that gather.
ed prompted Father Schwarz to
conceive the idea of building a
small church which would serve as
mission to the parish at Buch-
tel. The people heartily endorsed
the idea and it was decided that
brick structure, with facilities to
accommodate about 100 families,
would be built.
Land for the church was donated
by the New Pittsburgh Coal Com.
pany and work on the structure be-
gan. Meanwhile, Mass was being
said twice a month in the 'Old
Company Store"
The cornerstone was laid July
81, 1905, with the late Bishop
Hartley presiding. The church was
finally completed and dedicated,
November II, 1906. The approx
mate of the church was placed at
$4,000. Members Of all faiths in
the area contributed to the build.

Neri was made separate parish
and was given its own pastor. Fa-
ther Bernard P. Vogel.
Father Vogel made many neces.
sary improvements or the property
of the parish plant. Besides build
ing rectory, he reduced the debt
to S1,700. An early history of the
parish contains this tribute to Fa-
ther Vogel:
THAT his efforts were successful
both materially and spiritually, is
seen in the faith and piety of the
congregation, which is a monument
to his priestly zeal"
In July, 1919, Bishop Hartley ap-
pointed Father Stephen Yantko to
succeed Father Vogel. Other pas.
tors at st. Philip Neri included
Father Angelo Gallorini, who serv-
ed in that capacity for 29 years; Fa-
ther Peter Grabaskas and Father
Charles Jones. Father Robert Klee
is pastor at the present time.
In preparation for the jubilee
celebration, the church has been
entirely renovated inside and out.
In addition, new light oak furnish.
ings have been installed. The par
ish hall which had been closed for
ten years has been remodeled and
opened. The parish rectory has also
been renovated.
A jubilee dinner to which all
parishioners and friends of the par.
ish are invited, will be served in

outstanding. Whieldon made
his particular tobies in mot
ditioning at all. When he
wasn't fishing he was taking
long walks, running a mile
before breakfast, and even
getting in a few daily swings
of the bat with his fishing
cronies.
In those days he seldom
arrived in camp with the rest
Of the club. He usually put
in his appearance a couple of
weeks late, took, a few days
of batting practice and an
nounced he was ready.
Ready for the season ahead,
that is, but not for the druid
gerry Of those exhibition
games.
He hated them because he
felt he did not need them.
And he never took them seri-
ously.
We can remember back ten
springs ago. Williams came to
Sarasota two days before the
first exhibition game. He was.
in perfect condition. Sarasota
offered him not a thing ex-
cept the same sun he had left
behind in his Everglade Ash
ing camp.
The opening game was with
the st. Louis Cardinals. Sara
sofa was overfiowing with
tourists and they TANNED
Payne mark for the game. In
difference to the crowd, Will
liams was asked to start the
game in left field, despite his
two short days in camp. He
agreed, but with a Scowl.
1t was around the fifth
inning, as we remember
it, when Williams revealed
how deeply he detested
and disregarded these ex-
hibitiOn contests.
He was sitting in the
dugout talking with WalIy
Moses and others about
the hauIs he made in the
Everglades. He was in the
middle Of story about
some experience when it
came his turn at bat.
He grabbed a bat and
rushed to the plate. He
took three quick swings
at three bad balls and
missed all three. Then he
rushed back to the dug
out to finish his story.
We always doubted that Will
liams purpoSely struck out,
even in an exhibition game.
But we do know that his
mind was on fishing at the
moment, not on baseball.
Baseball for him started
when the season opened in
mid-April, In March he much
preferred having fun with fish
in the Everglades.
Curt Gowdy, then, was half
right when he said that Will
liams was making a mockery
of spring training by hitting
at bat.
A mockery for Williams, the
the fences his first afternoon
exception, but not for most
OF the other ball players who
find it much more difficult
getting their bodies and minds
In condition for the league
season.
So the Chambers Of Com
lnerce officials down south can
breath easy. There will be
spring training camps as long
as there is big league base
ball.
