at times damned and praised.
With the Emmy awards over and
the listing of the unlucky shows
which will not be shown next sea-
son, breathed with relief and
diSmay.
Many of our favorite shows each
season seemed to get the axe,
Could it be that Ed and | are in
the minority of viewers who like
to see documentaries. news re-
ports and good drama shows2
This years show deaths are nu-
merous and we have kept vigil
at the set to catch the last ones
available.
Monday night there are few
programs we really like. My
spouse had missed movie which
was being rebroadcast on Monday
Night at the Movies. Anything
concerning wars and the west
are sure view bait for him.
After the last man had been
rescued from the German sub
marine and Robert Mitchum had
Sulked his last line and the fade
out began, we tuned in on the local
bit Monday Night at Madison
Square Garden.
First. Art Brock tried to make
the wre stler he was interviewing
sound like a monster from the
black lagoon. The wre stler in
turn shouted about killing his
timid opponent in the next match.
He flexed his large biceps and
made like Charles Atlas or an
overstuffed Jack LaLanne.
Viewers watch the next match.
Here we're two men in wrest-
ling garb and two others in re-
feree's attire. No one could quite
figure out the referees roles.
The wrestlers tackled each other
with vigor. They leaped off the
ropes, pummeled each other and
made horrible faces. During the
melee the referees rushed back
and forth across the canvass
shouting and gesturing.
Finally one man was pinned
down, the referee slapped the
canvas and the victor flung his
arm In the air. The fans booed
or cheered and another match was
entered In the tally book.
In the meantime the sponsors
pitch was made and another In
terview was made. This time the
defeated wrestler defended his
honor and said he would beat
the big guy who had earlier cal
led him a crybaby. He was dres-
sed neatly in a shirt and didn't
seem as loud as his opponent
who had said his blood would
be running next week.
The finale began with a roar
ing crowd four men appeared.
Two dressed in white jumped in
a corner. With white ma SKIS, white
long cotton pants and white shoes,
the Mysterious Medics (move
over Ben Casey). bowed.
Two wrestlers in black pants
bowed and before the referees
could move away the action be-
gan. The Medics we're the vii
lians. The first fall was won by
them after some hair pulling and
eye gouging.
l must say the fans really got
their moneys worth. AS the cam
eras flashed through the audience
| saw young and old women
screaming with delight. The men
we're shouting and jumping up.
On one occasion one female was
motioning for the wrestler to
come out of the ring and she
would take him on.

SECOND SESSION

Ihe SecO71d Spec2QL session OF tne ATa-
zond Legis latuYe convened last Monday.
After failure to pass important abbTobTi-
alton bills for the financing Of Arizona
State University, the University of AYi-
zoma and Arizona State College, our
elected senator's and YebYeS SentdtiUes
agreed to meet again.
Although this second special session
was necessary, it is well to remember
that each special session costs the tax-
payers. Of course the regular session IS
intended as ample time for such imbor-
tant bills to be passed and both the men,
beYs of the house and senate R,leaV funds
would haze to be provided for our state
institutions Of higher learning.
AS the head executive of the state Coz.
!. Fax,,in uus compelled to call for this
second special session and through CO.
operation the tive measures he desired
we're passed.
Let us hope arizona legts lators don't
get IN the habit Of leaOtng unfinished bust
ness so they can continue special sessions
which burden the poor taxpayers purse.

compiled observations made
by great men about the
Bible. The range goes from
a noted astronomer, Sir Will
liam Herschel, through liter
airy figures to statesmen.
Here are some Of DR..
Crowley's excerpts:
"All human discoveries
seems to be made only for
the purpose of confirming
more and more strongly the
truths contained in the
sacred Scriptures. Sir Will
liam Herschel.
THE Bible is no mere
book. but a living power that
conquers all that oppose It,"
Napoleon Boneparte.
There never was found,
in any age Of the world,
either religion or law that
did so highly exalt the public
good as the Bible" - Sir
Francis Bacon.
III m anity desperately
needs today q moral and
spiritual rebirth. There is no
sure way of this supreme
goal save through adherence
to the teachings Of the
Bible. "-Cordell Hull.
The most learned, astute
and diligent student can not,
in the longest life, obtain an
entire knowledge of this one
volume-the Bible" - Sir
Walter Scott.
"In that final hour that
comes to all men this
book alone brings the work,
like a bell in the fog, Of
Him who says, I am the
resurrection and the life'."-
DR.. Frank Crane.
I'm all my perplexities and
distresses, the Bible has
never failed to give me light
and strength" - Robert E.
Lee.

Merger Progress
Noted

Progress on merger plans
Of the Evangelical United
Brethren Church and the
Methodist Church was
marked at a recent meeting
of representatives of the two
denominations in Chicago.
There, earlier this month,
the executive committees of
commissions on union Of
both churches authorized a
complete plan of union
draft. Following study and
probably changes, the draft
will then be submitted to the
governing bodies Of the two
denominations for legislative
action
Eventually the Plan Of
Union is expected to be
placed before the General
Conference of the Metho-
dist Church next April in
Pittsburgh. If approved by
two-thirds of the expected
900 delegates, it will then be
presented to the annual con-
ferenceS for ratification.
The last step will not be
taken until the General
Conference of the Evangeli-
cal U. B. Church In 1865.
If this meeting acts favor
ably, the statement will then
be submitted to that de-
nominations annual confer
ences.
Provided all hurdles by
both churches are sur
mounted, actual merger of
the Evangelical U. B. and the
Methodist Churches will take
place in 1868.
Negotiations between the
two denominations have
been under way since 1855.
There are 10,153,003 Metho-
dists in 39,050 churches in
the United States and 749,-
932 Evangelical q. B. mem.
bers In 1929 churches.

wide association interdeno-
ninational Sunday School
classes.
Twenty : two years ago
Mrs. Helen Tolbert, q local
realtor serving as chairman
Of a Baraca Philthea com
mittee to find a home for
the movement, spotted the
house.
Erected on ground once
part of George Washington's
estate, the 18th century
building was then empty and
going to ruin.
Mrs. Tolbert saw the
structures possibilities as a
headquarters. She got in
touch with Beverly Hedrick
Of Salisbury, N. c., who told
her to buy the place on faith
even though little cash was
on hand. Mr.. Hedrick, then
president of Baraca Phila-
thea, and Mrs. Tolbert then
got branches of the organi-
zation in different states to
contribute towards purchase
of the house. The North
Carolina businessman did
more; for every 1000 raised
he gave a matching amount.
Today the structure, in
good condition, is now the
center of the movement
started by Marshall Hudson
of Syracuse, N. Y, in 1890.
He began the association by
inviting young boys of a
Bible class to meet. From
this informal, unpretentious
beginning came Mr.. HudSon's
resolve to bring young boys
and men not affiliated with
Sunday School classes to
membership In q class. He
named the venture Bar
aca". meaning blessed"
Three years later his
daughter, Ann Hudson, in
augurated a similar move
for young girls. She used the
Greek word "Philathea",
meaning Lovers of Truth"
The two associations natu-
rally Joined to form the
Baraca Philathea movement,
with the motto win the
One Next to You" to join q
Bible class.
Mr.. Hudson died in 1924
and his place as leader was
taken by Miss Henrietta He
ron, a well known writer. She
moved into the Tower House
when it was bought in 1941,
staying until her death
about 1914. Today Mr.. and
Mrs. Merrill H. Reamer,
managers Of the house, re-
side there.
The Baraca Philathea as
sotation now has more than
800 classes in the United
States and about $4,000
members. -Four churches In
Alexandria and one in WASH
ington have Baraca Phila-
thea classes. While it is pri-
marily beamed towards
young people, some older
persons who joined as youths
still continue their member
ship.
Tomorrow seveal men,
bers from Alexandria and
Washington will join with
others throughout the Ma
ton in b World Wide Bara.
ca Philathea Convention at
st. Louis. Among those going
are Sam Bish of Alexandria,
first vice president of the

vention will end next Fri

Mr. Gleason said he would
protest Just as strongly If SEN

Harold j. Casio and Joseph

miles apart in political philoso-

Of the reasons Mr.. Casio, a Re

cause he was on the top line of

Democrats were.
II would say that possibly
the only reason that I'm in,

that I was on the top line" Mr..
