You cool enough now? One
extreme to the other, last week
hotter than the hinges of you
know-where. Of course, no one
can please everyone, not even
the 'fMan upstairs" So goes the
seasons, leaves to rake in the
fall; snow to shovel in the win
ter; weeds to pull in spring anc
grass to cut in summer. To me
the spring and fall are mos
interesting. When mother nature
awakens in spring and comes
fully alive in the summer, ther
sheds the pretty green for the
multicolor browns and colds
preparatory for the long winter
sleep, these things should be
seen. Now the transition is TAX
ing place, from long hot sum-
mer days to long wintry nights
ready for it?
Also, right about now, the
numerous candidates for pollti-
cal office. are ready to make
their pitch. There is a move
ment to ignore party labels and
vote for any candidate you ma
choose, the thought is that tn
party label does not necessary
ind cate the best man who vii
serve the best interest OF thf
people rather than the party
It is for these reasons that the
Statutes provide for any who
desire, to run for public ottlcf
with or without party atfllla
ton.
There have been manV insfan
ces where independent candl'
dates have defeated the part

party candidate does not always
have the edge, and that people
sometimes vote for the man
rather than party. These in
stances have occurred from the
lowest towns to the House of
Representatives and the Senate.
However, the candidates for
president is the only difference,
I do not know of an instance
where a Candidate for the Pres
idency of the United States was
elected without a major party
label.
During the next As days the
campaigning will become more
intense, and it will be wise to
keep the eyes and ears open
as to the issues that are most
important at this time. World
events tell US how important
the issues are. Our own national
events tell us that the time is
ripe to resolve some of the most
embarrassing issues right here
in the United States. Events
have transpired here that have
denied the fidelity of America
to the rest of the world. We
are accused of preaching wha'
we fail to practice" Occurrences
in some states as reported by
our leading newspapers, maya
zines, ETC., tell us that it is true.
That it happens in a Blue
Island School District as well
as elsewhere, tells us that these
issues are very important and
and the wisdom of knowing
facts and issues will give the
voter a clearer underS' andlng
when making up his mind as
he approaches the polls as to
who receives his vote-his most
valuable gift to a candidate

When very little has been hap
pening, what does one find to
write about?
Say! how about the Cotillion
Ball, which was held Tuesday, 26
at Riverside Ball Room It was
a very beautiful affair, the girls
in their white formals, and the
boys in their tux.
This was a big event in the
lives of the Debutantes. And not
only did they enjoy themselves
at Riverside, but also at the
party Mr.. Leon Long gave after
the Ball.
The Debutantes were: Donna
Sue Ward, Mile Thomas, Err
nestine Hutchinson, Antoinette
Lister, Augusta Nelson, Beverly
Gray, Hazel Powers, Patricia
Grant, Rosa Price, Ella Hawkins,
Mary Ellen Smith, Lillian Oats,
Jackie Laster, Clarice Lane, and
Sandra Jackson.
Have you ever tried to lift
something that weighed almost
as much as you, or at least seemed
as though it did? Well, that was
just how the bowling ball felt
to the bowlers Saturday night.
The Youth Fellowship of Lucy
Phillips is still following up their
Saturday evening programs, and
the Saturday evening of bowling
was the activity for that week.
The group of bowlers was COM
posed of tWenty-one, both teen
ayers and adults. Although it
might have been bit strenuous
on the fingers, it was a big load
of fun.

It has been some seven years
since high school and college
wrestling has become a recog-
lied sport in the state of Ari-
zona One of the men who has
contributed lot to it is Phoenix
Colleges John T. Booker.
Booker lives home with his
mother and father at 1117 West

One bright morning while

tact with Booker. We ex-
changed greetings and somehow
got off on the subject as to what
Booker once did in the world
of Sport.
Weighing 127 pounds and hav-
inc solid muscular frame, he
first started wrestling for Phoe-
nix Union in 1854. During his
freshman year there, he went on
to win second place in the state
in competitive wrestling. Some
thing went wrong during his
sophomore and junior years and
he fell to third place during both
of them.
When he became a senior, he
finally won the State Champion
ship in his class. Booker admit
ted during his final match down
Tucson way that, 81 felt a little
nervous and wasn't sure that
would win. But when it was over,
l had that feeling that / would
win anyway"
Upon entering Phoenix Col
lege. Booker went out for the
sport but had to quit because
he felt he had done his share.
! He went on the old saying as;
to quit while you are ahead"
/. He is now business major at
the College and plans to continue
his education at ASU. For his
spare time recreation, he listens
to Jazz and studies its history.
After graduating from high
school, Booker went into the
Army for six months active

justice is drowned out"
o'HAiRE asked the youths
to look at history. Forty
years ago Communism was
nothing. Today it possesses
half the world. This has been
done by Goddess, destructive
men-men with an evil pur-
pose. Must we not then with
God on our side and we on
His, fulfill our vocation to con-
vert the world-'to restore all
things to Christ"
IN A CONCURRENT ses-
sion, Miss Elizabeth Reid,
member of The Grail Over
seas Institute and NCWC
United Nations representative,
addressed the young women
at the meet. Miss Reid, who
spoke to the DCCW conVen-
ton last year, will leave for
West Africa at the end of this
month to coordinate a Grail
team there.
She told of her work in the
Grail movement, her experien-
ces in China, Asia, Wet Mem.
Miss Reid urged the young
women to use the talents they
have in the work of the apos-
tolate.
SHE BEMoANED the fact
that so many Americans are
isolationists. They do not real
ize the oneness Of the Church.
The Mystical Body is not felt,
she said, because 1--WE do not
suffer with those in other
lands"
She told the story of the
priest in Wet Mem who was
teaching the Our Father to
children. Because of this the
communists pierced his ear
drums and cut out his tongue.
She pointed out that it is
the challenge of those who
can speak to voice the words
of the Church so that those
with ears may hear.

Parole Board
Delays Release
OF Smut Dealer

The Ohio Parole Board at
the last minute delayed action
on a parole request of Cliff
Tex Overmyer, Fremont
smut peddler, after discovery
of a $4,000 cache of pornog-
raphy on a farm near Carey.
Acting on a tip from Cleve-
land police, Sheriff V. D. Nc
Allister of Wyandotte Coun-
ty, raided the farm. Police are
investigating the possibility
that the farm was used as a
storage plant by Overmyer.
Overmyer is serving a one
to-seven year term in Ohio
Penitentiary on obscenity
charges. He was sentenced a
year ago after police seized
$4,000 in pornography at
Tex's Trading Post which he
operated in Fremont.
The Ohio Parole Board de-
layed its action after receiv-
ing a protest telegram from
Sandusky County Prosecutor
Robert gilbert, who cited the
Carey farm raid and its pos
sible connections. The prose-
cutor had voiced an objection
against Overmyer's release
with the board before the
farm raid. He said that for
Overmyer to serve only one
year of his sentence was I'M
warranted in view of his
crime. Police said that Over
myer had been one of the
Midwest's leading peddlers of
pornographic materials.

The DccY members, cosni-
rant of the fact that problems
of youth must be solved by
the youths themselves, urge
all youth organizations TO
adopt the council type of pro-
gram and encourage CONNER
cial interests and institutions
to work through established
youth programs.
Be it resolved that the
Council of Catholic Youth, be-

secularism on the world to-
day and the need of spiritual
depth to widen perspectives,
promote a well-organized spjr-
itual program, and urges its
members to make a closed re-

Being aware of the influ-

He continued: 1.-THE spiritu-
al life of any people suffers
when the stimulus of compe-
tition is removed. Monopoly
breeds misuse of power in
business, politics and reli-
gion. This takes place rot be-
cause bishops, cardinals and
popes are bad men, but be-
cause they are human beings
subject to the temptations
which make insidious ap.
peals to all of US, and blinded
by the temptation to believe
that il an action enhances
the power, standing and glory
of the Church, then 1t is
right"
DR.. w. EARL HoTALEN,
executive director of the
Louisiana Moral and Civic
Foundation, Baton Rouge, La,
who earlier had delivered one
of the most vehement anti
Catholic addresses of the con-
vention, mapped throughout
the Methodist bishops talk.
DR.. Hotalen accused the Cath
Ollie Church of promoting
dirty politics, ignorance,
crime and poverty in Lorllsi-
ana. He said Catholics have an
"inhuman, barbaric" medical
code and the downfall of the
United States is threatened
unless the Catholic Church is
stopped.
DR.. Hotalen was wide awake
when the final speaker adj
dressed the convention and
the meeting got back TO its
familiar track - attacking
Catholics and their Church.
The final speaker was Glenn
Archer, POAU executive di-
rector, who asserted that IF
a man stands up to defend
the Constitution, he is called
a bigot."
MR.. ARCHER VIEW o
with alarm the publication in
Look magazine of an article
by Father John A. O'Brien
Of the University of Notre
Dame. The article is entitled
"Can Catholics Separate
Church and Slater" He
strongly denounced the al
ticle although he repeated, a
la Mark Antony, over and
over: "But Father O'Brien is
an honorable man."
In his general attack on the
Catholic Church, MI. Archer's
specific targets ranged from
the Christian Brothers of CAL
ifornia c'What are they do
ing in the liquor business,
anyway?") to Frances Gen.
Charles de Gaulle, who was
accused of making a deal
with the French clergy to OBJ
tain political power.
THE PoAU EXECUTIVE di-
rector said: I'm Boston and
throughout Massachusetts you
have less than a living demo-
crazy. In the matter Of birth
control you enjoy less free
dom than benighted India"
His reference was to the
states anticontraceptive laws,
which were passed in the 10th
century by a predominantly
+. Protestant State Legislature.
Mr.. Archer cited frequent
mmunist statements
made by His Eminence Rich
ard Cardinal Cushing, Arch
bishop Of Boston. He counter
ed that Evangelical churches
have less freedom in Catholic
countries than in the Soviet
Union and declared: 1--WE will
not be ruled either from Mos
COW or Rome"
