Sunday Sales
Justices Find
Purpose Of Statutes
Is Not Religious
By MIRIAM GUTENBERG
Star Staff Writer

The Supreme Court today
upheld blue laws restricting
Sunday business activities in
Maryland, Massachusetts, and
Pennsylvania.
Chief Justice Warren, speak,
ing for the courts majority in
four separate cases, held that
the First Amendment does not
ban Federal or State regula-
tions whose reason or effect
merely happens to coincide or
harmonic with the tenets of
some or all religions"
He emphasized the opinion
that while the blue laws orig
inally had religious motivation,
they now have secular mean
ing.
Cites Maryland Case
In upholding convictions in
a series of Maryland blue law
cases, Justice Warren said that
the States statutes seem
clearly to be fashioned for the
purpose of providing a Sunday
atmosphere for recreation,
cheerfullness, repose and en-
joyment."
Justice Warren said it was
common knowledge that the
first day of the week has be-
come a rest day for people of
all religions and people with
no religion. He specifically held
that the Maryland statutes are
not laws respecting an estab-
lishment of religion.
The Chief Justice rejected
the claim that the statutory
arrangement which permits
only certain Anne Arundel
County retailers to sell mer-
chandise customarily sold at
bathing beaches and amuse-
ment parks discriminates un-
reasonably against retailers in
other Maryland counties. He
said this was a matter for leg
islative discretion and I'VE find
no invidious discrimination
here"
Douglas DiSSents
To an argument that the
argument that the Maryland
statutes are "unconStitution-
ally vague" the Chief Justice
responded that business people
OF ordinary intelligence would
know what exceptions are en-
compaSSed by the statute either
as a matter of ordinary COM
mercial knowledge of simply by
making a reasonable investiga-
tion.
Justice Dougles disSented in
the Maryland case as well as
N the Massachusetts, and the
two Pennsylvania cases. In the
Maryland case the vote was 8
TO although Justice Frank
Furter wrote a separate con-
curing opinion in which JUS
ice Harlan joined.
BY its actions, the court up
1eld the decisions of two
'-judge District Courts in
Pennsylvania, reversed a 81
udge District Court in Massa-
'husetts and affirmed a Mary
and Court of Appeals decision.
Court Splits In Case
The court split most narrowly
n one of the Pennsylvania
cases. The appeal was brought
~ members of the Orthodox
Jewish faith. They claimed
hat enforcement of the Penn
'ylvania statute would pro-
1ibit free exercises of their re-
igion because they would

latter's case it could cost the school piece
Of post-season money.
Speaking of Maryland how does one
figure the Terrapins? That 21-17 victory
over Penn State was almost as unexpected
as Maryland'S losses to North Carolina and
South Carolina, especially the latter.
=
SYRACUSE AND PENN STATE were
preseason picks to dominate the East and
wind up among the top Is, If not the first
10, in the country. Maryland beat 'em both
in the role of underdog. But as favoriteS the
Terrapins don't fare so well.
Marylands victory over Penn State,
earnedwith sophomoreq equarterback throw
ing three touchdown passes and Gary Col
lins demonstrating that he is Of All-America
caliber even with the grippe, only refo-
cuSed attention to the South Carolina upset.
The loss to North Carolina wasn't so bad
1t was played in miserable weather and the
Tar Heels not only defeated NJ c. State,
but they also made Nugent's team look good
Saturday by noSing out Tennessee.
But South Carolina had been four
time loser and last week lost 1920, to an
other four time loser, Virginia. Not only
that, but the Gamecocks were the means by
which Virginia broke its 18-game losing
streak in the Atlantic Coast Conference.
Yet, Maryland, which is the only team to
score three touchdowns on Syracuse and
then score three more on Penn State, was
held to a mere 10 points by South Carolina.
&'&
THE PITY OF 1T for area connoisseurs,
who seem to be swinging back to college
football, is that Maryland and Navy don't
meet this year. This is another team
Navy-that is an enigma.
The Middies weren't supposed to beat
Miami, but did They pitted a four-game
winning streak against Pittsburgh, which
had lost four in row, and bowed, 28-14.
The bigger Panthers rolled up 277 yards
on the ground and even the most optimistic
Navy rooters feared the worst against Notre
Dame.
"If Pitt was too big" gloomily reported
the Middle scouts, "it's going to be tough
containing Notre Dame, which not only is
as big but also is faster than Pitt And it
has a passing attack"
So Navy beat the Irish, 1910, and who
ever thought that Notre Dame, after win
ming its first three starts, would drop as
many in successive weeks?
Maryland Navy is one that would make
people wonder if the new D. c. Stadium
was made large enough. And for cherry
on the top, it would be Greg Mather versus
Gary Collins in a rare duel OF an-purpoSe
ends. Anybody recall better pair in our
backyard at the same time?

Of trying to separate the top 10, or even 20,

the Hawkeyes have lost two straight to

unsavory streak this week.
There are very few positions in life so
insecure as the No. ranking in football.

often as filly winning the Kentucky Derby.

and Colorado.

skins record of 16 losses in a

sized that he is not committing
himself on the coaching job for

MathematicaIly Eliminated

confer with McPeak after the

to null over the situation.
Today, however, Marshall ex-
planned that he simply was
seated too far away to get to
McPeak after the game. He
added that the huge score re-
flected the importance of two

As Golf Pro

Jimmy Bellizzi has been re-

Laurel Pines Country Club, ef-

learned today.
Gillie Shapiro, president of
the club, said the officers would
take some time in deciding on
a successor.
1--WE might look for a promo
tion man, or pro with a back
ground in management" Sha-
piro said. Our big need is for
promotion"
Laurel Pines is a private club
about a mile from the Laurel
Race Track. 1t has a member
ship of about 300. Shapiro's
brother, Joseph, is club man
ager.
Bellizzi went to the Laurel
club from Argyle, where he
was assistant pro. He also was
assistant for several years at
Washington Golf and Country
Club. Jimmy won the Uplands
Open the last year the tourna-
ment was held, and tied for
the Mid-Atlantic assistant pro
title two years ago.
