Who is the patron saint of
baseball?

Who is the patron saint of
baseball?
That's the question asked
by Nike Meehan of 1866 Bry-
den Rd. in a letter received
recently.
AS far as we can deter
mine, there is no certain pa
tron saint Of baseball. There
is, however, a patron saint of
sports.
His name is st. Sebastian,
who is also the patron of sol
diers. st. Sebastian was a Ro-
man martyr who was put to
death on orders from EN-
peror Diocletian in the third
century.
A Christian and a member
of the Roman Army, st. Sc
bastian rose to become COM
mander of the imperial body
guard. When it was learned
that he secretly aided Chris
tians, he was ordered put to
death.-LoU FABR0.

In 1914, when Ruth was 10

MORGANToN - October 18th
was a great day for Western North
Carolina when ground was broken
for the Carolina Power and Light
Company's new 250.0OO horsepower
steam-electric generating plant at
,Skyland. Mrs. Erwin and I were
privileged to attend the ceremony.
The drive by automobile from Nor
canton to Skyland gave me the
opportunity to see the mountains
arrayed in all of their fall splendor,
and to recall John Charles McNeils
poem on October" which space
does not permit me to quote. The
ceremony began promptly at IL a.
M. on 760-acre tract just west of
Skyland and east of the French
Broad River where the new plant
will soon rise to the height of a
16-story building. Makers outlined
the site of 300-acre lake which
will provide water for the plant. A
1000 foot dam will cross the valley
in an area Of unsurpassed beauty.
In normal operation the new plant
will produce enough electricity to
serve 100000 Western North Caro-
lima families. Recreation facilities
will provide public areas when the
project is completed.

remarks on the occasion recalled
to my mind the vast impact which
electricity has had in the twentieth
century on the homes Of this coun-
try. Perhaps this can be best illus
trated by fancying that by whim
of the Creator it was decreed one
day that all electricity would cease
to work. If this happened in a typi-
cal North Carolina home during
the evening, the television set would
flicker off, darkness would settle
over the house, and soon the occu-
pants would shiver from cold be-
cause the electrical controls of the
furnace would cease tn function.
