High, leading the Interhigh
League in batting in 1871.
Since 1855 the Plumbers have
shown q gradual decline, but
1t isn't entirely the fault Of
Martz.
Il didn't relish taking this
job from Hoffman" Martz said
the other day. Managing
isn't my cup of tea. Next year
I'll stick to playing"
You can't get far without
the material. Martz, who re-
sembles Scrap Iron Courtney
of the Senators-even to the
wearing of glasses and chaw
of tobacco-has been saddled
with a club all season that had
too many weak spots.
Playing in the Industrial
League this season for the first
time, AK soon found it was
in over its head. The Plumb
ers finished the first half with
an 0-8 record.
In second-half play AK
picked I'D q little and to date
is 3-6. The overall record in
the Old Dominion League,
playing on Sundays, is ST..
= \
The improvements, although
coming too late to put AK in
the playoffs. stems partly from
several college players Martz
added to the roster when school
closed for the summer.
However. it was the steady
pitching of highlander Charley
Padgett that kept the Plumb
ers from going all the way
down the drain.
He's a hard worker and has
a fair amount of ability"
Martz said. But he needs q
good. sound club back of him
to be q consistent winner"
Padgett. who played his high
school ball at Washington-Lee,
has been working at the Ar
lington Post Once in an ef-
fort to save money for col
lege. He would like to enter
George Washington this fall.

When truck can maintain sales leadership as long
as Chevrolet has, there must be some pretty sound
reasons No one pays out hard-earned money for
truck on impulse. BY the same token, Chevrolet
trucks haven't kept ahead for the last 20 years just
on their good looks (rst in sales every production
year since 37) The fact is more truck owners invest
in Chevy trucks because they know Cheves have

Mrs. Washburn is a graduate OF
Radcliffe College, Cambridge,
Massachusetts and is an Assist
ant Professor of History at Hamp-
ton Institute in Virginia. Her
address follows:
81 will ask you for the moment
and here / am paraphraslng
H. D. F Kitto, a most sensitive
and profound Greek scholar, |
will ask you for the moment then
to accept as a reasonable state
ment c. fact, that in a part OF the
world that had for centuries been
civilized, and quite highly civil
i7ed, prof. Kitto here refers to
the Mediterranean basin), there
gradually emerged a people, not
cry numerous, not very powerful,
not very well organized, who had
a totally new concept of what hui
man life was for, and showed for
the first time what the human
mind was for.
This probably sounds like a
paradox especially to our 2O-cen-
fury American ears, where num-
hers and strength, economic,
military or otherwise, and expert
and efficient organization count
uppermost as yardsticks of sue
cess and achievement. But I will
endeavor, at least as much as |
can within our limited time, to
explain the paradox.
WI are told again and again
that Western culture owes a great
debt to Ancient Greece. We are
told that the Greeks wrote a lit
erature chat still remains both in
form and content an inspiration
and model to later literature. We
are told that they created a philo-
sophy so profound and true and
human that it became the basis
for later PHILOSOPHERS kind of
universal springboard of thought.
We are also told that their archi-
lecture and sculpture were so
great and inspired that most of
their rules hold true today.
But all this is abstract talk and
is far from proving any points.
Let us get down then to basic
facts in order to understand these
this people and their culture.
We find the Greeds, when we
try to study them, profoundly hui
name and interested in life. The
Greek mind is clear and sharp. 1t

lations of natural phenomena.
Cause and effect, practical appli-
cation of scientific knowledge.
But in all this we find a freedom
and a confidence in the power of
the human mind and its possibl-
lities that is startling. The Greeks
believe in Nina, in the dignity and
power of the human mind. The
Greek mind shows a definite i'm
patience with blurred and mysti-
cal concepts. Lets for instance
look into Greek philosophy. We
find there uppermost, Socrates,
the greatest Greek philosopher ac-
cording to the testimony of the
most reliable witnesses, thinkers
like Plato and Aristotle. But here
we already have another paradox.
We find Socrates, as I already
mentioned, the greatest Greek
philosopher, but a man who
neither wrote nor preached his
%philosophic dogma. Actually he
didn't even have a dogma. Accord
ing to his pupils he used a
method, the most common, earthly
method, to which he gave the
ironic appellation of midwifery.
What, then, did Socrates do? He
only asked simple question. And
through these simple questions,
patiently and painfully like a
midwife made his students come
to the simple conclusions. He
helped like a skilled midwife
bring about a natural birth-but
this was a birth of ideas, a gradu-
al arrival at truth. The Greek,
Socrates, had actually such con-
fdence in the human mind that
he believed that any man, any
any Athenian, at least could ar
