Leo Durocher says its in the bag
again. There's no doubt that the
Giants have youth on their side,
but it's enough to scare anybody
the way they still rely on Willie
Mays. Sure, he carried a lot of
weight last year, but that was last
year and in between there have
been publicity, good times, and the
dreamed chicken circuit. There's
no telling yet how this has effect
ed the star Of last years team. At

to carry the team on his shoulders.

tions. They still have a good team,
but let's face tits an oldsters

blood to bolster the old folks, be-
cause that team from Philadelphia

of becoming part of the denomina
ton.
The case began when Bishop
Walker transferred Rev. Glover
from the Southern California an
nual conference to the Colorado
Conference and assigned him to
Phoenix, Ariz., in the largest
church of the state. in 1853.
Rev. Glover accepted the ap-
pointment and served several
weeks before walking out of the
pulpit without notifying church
authorities of his intentions. He
returned to Los Angeles and es-
tablished st. Matthews Temple
there.
At the following annual confer
ence meeting at Ward AME Chap
Ell IN Los Angeles in September,
1858, the minister appeared before
Bishop Walker and the conference
seeking admittance into the annual
conference for himself and the
hewly-founded church.
After examination of the legal
background of the new church by
counsel for the conference, ATTY.
Vince Monroe Townsend, Jr., of
Los Angeles, it was advised that
the terms of admittance as set
forth by Rev. Glover could not be
met. The conference took no fur
ther action in the matter.
Rev. Glover then appeared be-
fore the Bishops council meeting
at Waco, last week to present his
version of the situation. The sec

Miami Springs, Fla. - The stars
literally fell on Miami for Ray

South Winter Golf Open and what
some say was the first national
Negro golf tournament ever to be
held in this southern Florida re-
sort city.
The scene was the beautiful
Miami Springs Country Club home
of the $4,000 Miami open, oldest
consecutive golf tournament in the
world. Just to name a few, some
of the top celebrities seen swing
ing down the fairways were Billy
Eckstine, Arthur Prysock, singers,
while Sammy Davis, Jr., and other
top names in entertainment were
frequently seen in the galleries.
The Dodgers second base flash,
Junior Gillium, had to settle for a
gallery position, but watched with
interest his teammates Don New
combe and Jackie Robinson, who
walked away with the Organized
Baseball Players trophy. Hank
Thompson of the Giants, likewise
was a contestant.
Joe Black, Brooklyn pitcher, and
Emlen Tunnel, Giants football ace,
preferred combining their activities
to the 10th hole, while Eyre Saitch,
of basketball fame, was likewise
minus his clubs but had an arm
full of trophies for donation in be-
half of his firm, The F. and M.

in the United States, denounced
suggestions that "in order to ex-
plot the Soviets' fear to the full
we give them the impression
that we are ready to use the bomb
indiscriminately."
"We can let the Russians know"
he said, "that we are more than
ready to defend ourselves effec-
lively against their attacks
We can point out the obvious fact
that in the prosecution of a war,
officers and soldiers do not al
ways conform to orders received
from their chiefs or their govern
ment; and hence that any abuse on
the part of the enemy might have
as human consequence abuse on
the part of our fighting men. To
impress the enemy, however, with
the idea that we nourish inten-
tions as bad or even worse than
his own, would be to stimulate him
to forestall us by an attack"
Father Lumbrerss noted that
in any case. The use Of A or n
bomhs---or any destructive wea-
pons-direetIY against innocent
people or peaceful towns "is an
action absolutely forbidden by
natural law"
II might happen he continued,
"that when atomic weapons are
employed to kill directly the en-
emy fighting forces and to destroy
directly a military objective, some
innocent citizens are killed and
some nonmiiitary spot is destroy
ed. This non-intended killing and
destruction has always been justi-
fled by theologians on the princis
pie Of the double effect"
The theologian warned, however,
that this principle is liable to be
misunderstood" Without mention
ing his name, he quoted one pre-
late as saying that eff by destroy
ing 100000 persons we were to
preserve the lives and freedom of
400, 100000 or 800,000,000 others,
certainly the double effect princi-
pie would justify the dropping of
an atomic bomb in just war. "
Statements such as this are mis-
leading IF taken or reported apart
from their context Father Lum-
breras said.
The principle In question, he
went on. requires not only that
the bad effect be compensated
for by The good one: II demands
also that The good effect not be
obtained through the evil one.
We msY not do evil that good
may come from il; the end does
not Justify the means. II IL were
otherwise, eaiphss would have
rightly condemned Jesus 10
