six battles with Boston, prob
ably will miss the Red Sox
series. He pulled a muscle in
his left leg yesterday and it's

Sievers collected 10 hits in
Is tries against the Red Sox,
including two homers, a triple
and a double, and slammed
across six runs. He'll be missed,
but Neil Chrisley could take up
the slack.
Chrisley batted three times

home runs into the rightfield

Sievers injured his leg scor-
ing from second base when the
Senators broke loose for three
runs in the fourth inning of the
nightcap. A moment earlier,
the Yankees lost the services of
First Baseman Bill Skowron for
at least two weeks when he tore
a muscle in the lower part of
his back while fielding Clint
Courtney's grounder.
Skowron made a dive for
Courtney's smash and came up
with the ball near first base.
He rolled over and touched the
bag. but then couldn't get up.
He was carried from the field
on a stretcher. He will remain
in the hospital for four days
and will have to wear a special
corset for another four days.
Skowron sustained q sacro-
lilac diSlocation last September
which shelved him for a few
weeks and kept him out Of most

a blow to the Yankees, for he

Letters To Editor
Opinion, Prejudices
Influence Life

Editor, The Herald:
The prejudiced and obstinate
man does not SO much hold
opinions, as his opinions hold
him.
We usually think OF prejudice as
huring the people against whom 1t
is directed. but. actually. prejudice
is a boomerang The person who
suffers most from a prejudice is
the one who has it,
A narrow mind leads to the mar
row life. II cheats people out Of the
pleasure Of new experiences. 1t
warps thoughts. conversations, ac-
tivities. 1t affects careers. friend
ships and opportunities.
A good many persons you will
meet and have to deal with are
stubborn, and prejudiced. They
have what psychologists call men

chologist. william James. said

thing He meant that the biggest
thing in your life and mine is

Prejudice is the conjuror OF

But II is not enough to know pre-
JUDGE when you meet it. The ques-
ton u.s. what can you yourself do
about? How can you avoid becom-
ing narrow-mindedo
Here are seven helpful rules. The
first TO strive constantly to know
thoroughly before you form
strong opinion.
The second is to have a factual
basis or good authority for the
opinion you hold.
The third is to avoid outright
acceptance Of the opinions Of
others.
The fourth is to avoid being too
consistent.
The fifth is just this: II you can't
win an argument on reason alone.
give up then re-examine your
point Of view.
The sixth is. Don't put yourself
out on a limb. When you express
an opinion you put yourself on
record. and may feel duty to de-
fend your stand.
Seventh. and last, don't let YOUR
feelings trap you. Psychologists
say prejudice often arises out Of a
feeling Of inferiority. TO conpen-
safe. We look around for somebody
to whom we think We can feel sup
perior-and thus we acquire a pre-
JUDGE.
In following these rules you start
with an open mind and progress to
sound opinions. And you need
opinions: they are what make YOU
an individual. The person with no
definite point Of view is Of small
value to the world. He seldom feels
keenly enough about an Injustice
TO fight for its correction. But be-
fore YOU can take valid stand
you must know where - and why:
Some one has wisely said: The
world is governed much more BY
opinion than BY laws. It is not the
judgement Of courts. but the moral
judgement of individuals ard
masses Of men. which is the chief
wall of defence around pfoperty
and life. With the progress Of So
clety. this power Of opinion is tax
ing the place Of arms.

Halloween Pagan Celebration

is said to have put to death eight hundred
witches in six years. In 1908, the Parlia-
ment in London enacted law against in
tercourse with witches.
All sorts of beliefs have been connected
with Halloween. In Pennsylvania it was
believed for many years that if one goes out
of the front door Backwards picks up grass
or dust and wraps it in paper and puts it
under the pillow one will dream with GER
tainty Of what the future holds. In Mary
land girls once put an egg on the stove to
fry and opened the windows. Then the man
they are to marry will come in and turn the
egg - supposedly. In the South a custom
was, for some years carried over from the
Druid sacrifices. Alcohol was put in bowl
and lighted and fortunes in the shape Of
figs, orange peel raisns almonds and
dates. wrapped in tinfol, were thrown into
the flame.

THE mystic rites and ceremonies With
which Halloween was originally OBJ
served originated among the Druids. many
centuries before the dawn Of the Christian
era. In time some Of the rites peculiar to
the Roman festival of Pomona were added.
No longer of mystic significance Halo
we'en in the United States has become a
night for Trick or Treat" This is a step
up the ladder in the progress Of the human
race, since it was formerly night for all
sorts Of delinquent chicanery.
But. back to the beginning Halloween
was the time when it was supposed that
witches and ghosts were most likely to
wander about The belief in wtchcraft, Of
course, is old, and evidences Of it are found
in the Bible. The Christian church at one
time accepted the existence Of witches and
condemned intercourse with them as a form
of traffic with the devil
By the year 1900 those who were thought
to be witches were tortured and then burn
ed, often at the stake - and this is reported
to have occurred in New England, in our
own country, not too many years ago,
The practice was, however, worst in Eu-

what would have happened if this or that

had not been followed Unfortunately, or

Of history. Events which have occurred can
be used only as guide-posts TO present and

those who have lived in this Goth century

can tell, but we may find some assistance
in deliberations by reassessing past events.
Suffice it to say that the United States
have grown in population. wealth., ease in

Since World War II the United States have
been catapulated into the position of a
world leader a position for which they

No Religious Background

Peoples minds in Galilee were
not on religion. There were no
great shrines there, no temples like
the one in Jerusalem. Priests were
few and far between. There was
no great religious tradition. Sell
ing" religion to Galileans was not
promising. Granted, the 'pious"
people around Jerusalem included a
number Of hypocrites. Still, why
not start In Jerusalem where
people were already interested, In
stead Of starting cold, In Galilee!
Once when Jesus was teaching,
never more earnestly or spiritually
Ia his life, one Of these money
minded Galileans shouted to him
from the crowd: Make my brother
divide our inheritance with me. It
is hard to get under the skin and
next to conscience of people like
that.
