in six starts, showed a definite
advantage as far as experience

skins appeared to be shaking off
the effects of the recent football
season.
The Redskins, resplendent in
new white uniforms with red
numerals, were led onto the
floor by Marvin Jackson, burst
ing through a large paper hoop
to add further interest for this
opening game. Caldwell con-
tinued to display a lot of pep
throughout the game as Coach
Scott experimental with several
player combinations, each of
which responded favorably.
Caldwell scored first when Bob
DeVolld stole the ball out front
and went in for a lay-up shot,
but jim Dennis flipped in a pair
of fielders to knot the count at
"A a minute later. The Redskins
moved ahead on two buckets by
Ron Priest driving in from the
corner and never gave up the
lead after that, although the
Riders narrowed the gap fire.

Devolld picked up three per-

The Revised Organic Act of
1854, in the view of the Con-
gress, was intended to remedy
deficiencies which had be-
come apparent in the 1886 Act.
Provision was made for estab-

reorganization aimed at re-
ducing substantially the rough

Early in their existence. the
knights established chair of
American History at the Catholic
University of America and later
contributed $500, 900 to the same
institution for graduate scholar
ships. In the famous "Oregon
school case" and in similar sit
uations, the society led the fight
which resulted in Supreme Court
decisions upholding the right of
parents to educate their children
in parochial schools.
The Knights have just complet-
ed the work, begun in 1851, of
micro-filming almost 10 million
pages of manuscripts preserved
in the Vatican Library. These re-
productions are now available to
American scholars at the X. of C.
Vatican Film Library at st. Louis
University and master films of
the collection have been stored in
a place safe from war or disaster
damage.
Immediately after World War
ii, the Knights established a mil
lion-dollar scholarship fund which
is providing a complete college
education for sons and daughters
of members who were killed or
totally disabled in military serv-
ice. Recently, the provisions were
extended to cover Korean war
service.
Since 1948, the society has
spent almost SIS million advertis-
ing Catholic doctrine and prac.
tices in paid space in newspapers
and magazines. AS a result, more
than two-and-a-half million in
quiries have been received at the
X. of c. Religious Information
Bureau, in st. Louis, Mo-. and
the program has been praised by
noE.Catholic as we'll as Catholic
leaders.

field of patriotic endeavor range

Grinding poverty, plus the de-
termination to do something
about relieving its effects on fam
lily life, was the beginning from
which has come an organization
with assets of $120 million, $3.50
million insurance in force on its
members and which has paid $120
million to them and their bene-
Gciaries.
Fairly recent reports on the
acquisition by the Knights of CO.
lumbus of the Yankee Stadium
site. and other stable financial
deals, reflect only one of the
many phases of the society's
growth from its humble begin
ming.
Although the original and still
strongly maintained purpose of
K. of c., was to provide financial
aid for the widows and children
of its members, there was built
into its charter the blueprint of
more general service to church,
state and community.
Soon after its founding, its pri.
mary purpose was expanded to
include activities by local, state
and Supreme or international,
Councils in the fields of social
welfare, aid to religion, patriotic
endeavor, civic betterment. aid
to education and. similar projects.
