SPIRES OF THE SPIRIT
Muckrokes and AnueIs
BY DIR. FREDERICK BROWN HARRIS
Chaplain Of the United States senate

preacher in jail by the name
Of John Bunyan. in a book
destined to be world famous,
drew q picture Of THE Man
with q Muekrake." The
muckraker's descendants are
living today and walk the
ways Of the goth century. His
tribe was perhaps never so
mum erous as now. In this
hectic day he stands, or
rather. bends. His eyes are so
riveted on the muck and
mire, on the sticks and
stones which cover the
ground around him, that he
seems altogether oblivious to
the proximity Of a radiant
angel with q crown of gold
lowering just above his head.
The man with a muckrake
Is one who In any age had an
affinity for the unsightly, the
ugly. the filthy and the I'M
worthy. For him the world as
1t really Is stands revealed In
the unsavory mess which is
found within the radius Of
his rake. Bunyan's portrayal
Of so long ago Is an accurate
mirror Of the attitude of
many IN our day who. in
stead Of exclaiming with I'M
deceive d eyes. "All's right
with the world because it is
Gods" cry out in their dis
gusted appraisal, "All's rot
ten with the world because it
has gone to the devil"
There Is no more subtle
temptation confronting those
who are now being called to
play their part on the clut-
tered stage Of the present
than to lose q sense of pro-
portion, Of percentage, and
perspective, and in pesSimis-
tic gloom to sign up as active
members of the ''Muckrake
Club"
1t might have q salutary
effect upon any person who is
tempted to grab a muckrake,
as he goes out to face a new
day, If he could but sit down
quietly and read a significant
entry In the Book Of Books
and ponder upon 1t. 1t would
remind such a one that In
the total picture there are
angels as well as mire. We
read that Elijah with muck
rake in hand, with jaundiced
eyes. was berating his times.
He fled to q cave. There the
word Of the Lord came to
him and asked bluntly.
What are you doing here?"
Leaning on his muckrake of
despair the prophet an
swered, THE people Of Israel
have forsaken Thy covenant,
thrown down Thy affairs,
slain Thy prophets, and I am
the only one left who has not
betrayed the faith"
Now the fact was tn a t
there was a multitude in the
land who, with uncompro-
missed loyalty, had been true
to the faith Of his fathers. The
word Of the God of things as
they are came to Elijah in
the cave virtually saying,
You're not alone; get down
from the lonely pedestal of
self-righteousness. There are
1000 in Israel who have not
bowed to Baal." What an IL
lustration is this Of VIII a t
h happens when the critical
faculty so takes the saddle
that the fault finder discards
all other instruments except
the muckrake. Then the legit-
innate urge to criticize that
can be a virtue degenerates
into a vicious vice. A wise
man has said, ut is utterly
fatal to concentrate on the 5
per cent bad in a situation
and overlook the 95 per cent
which is good"

Radical Riqht'

Ever since December, 1860.
VIII en- the Communists, in
frantic concern at the re-
birth Of patriotism in Amer
lea, issued their manifesto
vilifying the radical right"
and thus coming this cliche,
the deliberate distorting and
deploring Of the right wing
has practically become an OBJ
session with every left wing
writer, commentator, news
paper and magazine in the
country.
Unfortunately, this cam
paign has been successful in
confusing many good citizens
as to who the real enemy is.
Practically every person and
organization that has done an
effec tive job against the
Com m unists has been
smeared by other Americans.
Have m e m b ers Of right
wing organizations ever taken
the Fifth Amendment" or is
this a privilege reserved for
traitors? I cannot recall a
single member Of a rightist
organization hiding behind
the Fifth Amendment, nor
has any member of a right
wing organization ever been
charged with or convicted of
treason against the U mite d
States.
Almost without exception,
however. every person con-
victed Of treason has been a
member of a left wing organ
ization none of which have,
for some mysterious reason,
either been smeared or even
referred to as radical by
most present-day informa-
ton media.
Isn't it time for many Of US
to choose sides over again2

so Years AGO

America was going golf
crazy so years ago. The Star
of November 81, 1918, esti-
mated two million persons Of
both sexes were hacking
away and paying $500 mil
lion a year for that dubious
pleasure. Studying the golf
er's budget, this paper said:
Even the most careful golf
er will use up one ball a
week, or about 40 a year.
This adds up to $40. as the
best ball costs so cents. Most
regular golfers get a new set
of clubs each year, at a cost
between $25 and $40. Rail
fare to and from the club is
a big item. Women golfers
must buy special golfing
skirts and special shoes to
prevent their slipping on the
green's. :"
1.-The Came" that is Har-
ward VS.. Yale on the gridiron,
was won by the Crimson so
years ago. The Star Of No.
vember %, 1918, reported
Harvard's great fullback,
Charlie Brickley, accounted
for all Of his teams is points
with 5 dropkicked field goals.
Yale was held to 5 points, a
field goal by Guernsey, and a
safety.

The Ocean Springs Greyhounds
closed out their 1868 season yes
terday afternoon with a 14-7
Turkey Bowl victory over the
New Orleans Academy Cadets
at Freedom Field in Ocean
Springs.
Despite an extremely muddy
field and rain the Greyhoumds
posted victory number II for
the season without "a defeat
while the Cadets finished up
with a TAI.
Halfback Roy Franklin of
Ocean Springs was named the
outstanding back in the game
while Cadet Tackle Steve Re-
bold was named as the outstand-
ing lineman.
ScOreless Period
Neither squad could score in
the first period although the
GreyhoundS threatened on three
times only to have pass inter-
ception and fumbles thwart the
attempts after they had moved
in around the Cadet 80 yard
line.
Ocean Springs finally hit pay
dirt with about four minutes
gone in the second period when
Franklin hit over right tackle
and smashed three yards. Half
back Mike Lipps moved around
right end on the conversion and
the Greyhounds led 20.
The drive started on the Grey
hound 40 and moved downfield
60 yards in seven plays. Two
passes from quarterback David
Beauges one good for eight
yards to end Frank Gale at
the Academy 40 and one good
for 40 yards to end Joe Williams
at the New Orleans Nine were
the key plays in the drive.
The Greyhounds tailed again
with eight minutes left in the
third period when Beaugez toss
ed a 80 yard pass to end Clar-
ence Blake who was all by him
self in the end zone. Beaugez
kicked the extra point and Ocean
Springs led $40. The drive
moved 54 yards in four plays.
Cadets Score
The Cadet score came in the
final period when quarterback
Ed Castaing hit end Richard
Starr in the end one with a Is
yard pass. Tackle Ted Baer
booted the extra point and the
Greyhound lead was cut 14-7.
The Cadets tried desperately
to get on the scoreboard again
throughout the final period but
a strong Ocean Springs defen-
Sive effort kept them bottled up.
Statistics saw Ocean Springs
gather five first downs to eight
for the Academy. The Grey
hounds completed nine of 10
passes for 1913 yards while the
Academy hit six out of IL passes
TOR BY yards.
The Cadets intercepted four
Greyhound aerials while Ocean
Springs failed to pick up any in
Perceptions. The Greyhounds
fumbled twice and lost them
both while New Orleans fumbled
three times and lost two. Ocean
Springs was penalized five
times for IS yards with New Or
leans picking up two penalties
for 10 yards.
The Greyhounds picked up
SIS yards rushing and New Or
leans gathered 81. The Grey
hounds punted once for q yards
with the Academy booting six
