T PAGE 6 GEORGIA BULLETIN THURSDAY, MAY 16, 1963 IN BASEBALL Catholic Profiles BY RONDEL Forty-two year old Warren Spahn Is the greatest pitcher in the major leagues. That is the best way to describe the Milwaukee Braves ace lefthander for superlatives, no matter how lavish would be inadequate. The ageless southpaw, one of thirteen men to win better than three hundred big league games is presently embarking on his eighteenth year as an active major league pitcher. WARREN SPAHN The hawk nosed southpaw may have proved to be the games's all time wlnningest pitcher had it not been for a three year army hitch which came at the beginning of his rookie year. To date Spahn has won the amaz ing total of 330 big league tilts, in cluding no less than 12 twenty win or better seasons.

To bewildered National League hitters it seems that Spahn has been out there winning games for a hundred years. It hasn't been quite that long but Spamie has been notching wins since most of the present day NL rookies were born. IT TOOK Spahn 16 years to notch his first no-hitter but when he did, he did it big. Just three months and three starts after silencing the bats of the Philadelphia Phillies, Spahnie balnkedthe powerful San Francisco Giants 2-0 via his second no-hitter. Sphan has been around a long time. He has seen many players come and go, and yet he has weathered the storm. He has survived the annual tenseness and intense big league conditioning program that major league ballplayers go through each spring. Sphan has not loafed through the drills, as many veterans might tend to do. He has driven himself, because, like the dedicated ball player he is, he knows that in the long run the conditioning will pay off. IT IS not money that keeps Warren Spahn in baseball. It is pride. Pride in him -elf, his club and the sheer joy of playing ball. He is the highest paid pitcher in the game at $55,000, yet the money is of littl. importance. The crack portsider has worked hard to gain the prestige that he now holds. Year in and year out he leads not only the Milwaukee club, but the NL in innings pitched, and is among the top hurlers in the other vital categories. Since his entrance to the big leagues, some twenty-one years ago Sphan has led the NL pitchera in every department at least once. He has won the earned run title twice, the strikeout title, posted the most victories, had the best percentage, toiled the most innings, appeared in the most games, and won the CY Young award as the major leagues outstanding pitcher. All this from a gangling lad of 6' who tried to make the club as a first baseman, but was rejected because of his size. Still not too big at 175 lbs. Sphanie does not try to overpower the hitters, iiis good live fastball is practically gone, and Spahn, realizing this, has turned to the knuckler and screwball. HIS pickoff move to first is a sight to behold. It is perhaps the greatest in the history of the game. The Oklahoma native is a gutty pitcher who will challenge you, and match wits against you when you are up in the box. Age is no handicap, Just as a load of shrapnel in his leg has been no handicap these past twenty years. A hero both on and off the field, Spahn copped a number of distinguished service medals and a purple heart for bravery beyond tha call of duty during his ser vice hitch. IN WORLD series competition Spahn has proved to be every bit as tough as he In NLpiay. In the *38 series he won two games, one a dazzling two-hit shutout over the Yankees. He is no slouch afield or at bat either. In that same *58 series he drove in three runs and hit an astounding .333. A battler in every sense of the word, Warren Spahn is a pro's pro, a man respected not only by his teammates but by his adver saries as well. How long car. Spahn last? Who knows? He has been said to have been washed up many teams by so called experts but each time has bounced back to prove them wrong. Sphanie defies father time constantly and the perennial 20 game winner seems well set in 1963. Each year Spahn and father time are pitted against each other. So far Warren has emerged victorious on every count. He has made no plans of retiring and does not plan on doing so in the near future. This year he has won three of his first four starts, including the 56th shutout of his career, tops among southpaw whitewash men in either league DENNY Bishop of St. Plus X High School slides into third base while Marist baseman, John Newcomb, makes valiant try. 2ND PLACE ST.

Kennedy Institute here have found that children with low I.Q.'s can learn things readily If they arc taught by means of colored slides projected on the wall. The sisters refer to it as the "Naval Academy" method of teaching because they are using the same kind of projector and equipment found useful at Anna polis in teaching young naval cadets the strategies of defense. WHILE retarded children in their teens will sit still and concentrate for only four or five minutes at a time on child ren’s books, they will listen and watch attentively as long as 25 or 35 minutes at a slide lecture. Sister Joseph Mary, director of the institute — endowed by President Kennedy’s family and named for his older brother who died during World War II — said the method may revoluntionize the teaching of mentally handi capped children. Many retarded youngsters have been given only basic man ual training in the past, she said., Without some academic grounding, they fail to establish normal contacts with their fellow workers when they do get a job out in the world. "THEY simply have nothing to talk with them about,” she explained.. "So although they may have learned their trade well, they are usually the last to be hired and the first to be fired." The nuns have succeeded in teaching a class of 35 handi capped children a course in so cial science and geography. All now know where Cape Cana veral is and what is going on there. With this background, they can watch TV and kfeep up with news events of the day, something in which they'form- Cardinal Award NEW YORK (RNS) — Francis Cardinal Spellman, Archbishop of New York, has been announ ced here as the first recipient of the George E.

Bishop Ernest J. Primeau af Manchester told some 200 dele gates and their wives at the 161st convention of the Episco pal Diocese of New Hampshire that because there Is no such authority, "difficulties from the Roman (Catholic) point of view contribute to the difficulties of Christian unity at the pre sent time." THE FIRST Catholic prelate to address an Episcopal Church gathering in this state said: "Unity today for all Christian ity is the crucial problem. Di vision had had serious effects, Christian disunity is contrary’ to the will of God. "Any Christian worthy of the name must deplore disunity and do what he can to stitch the pieces together," Bishop Pri meau said. "Ecumenity can be obtained only through the grace of God and only through our own frail attempts." Episcopal Bishop Charles F. Hall of New Hampshire, who introduced Bishop Primeau (May 10) to the convention, praised the Catholic prelate for his work in this state and at the Second Vatican Council in Rome. THE HISTORIC religious event coincided with the 100th anniversary of the founding of St. Mary's Catholic church Notre Dame Gives Admiral Laetare Medal NOTRE DAME, Ind. (NC)— Adm. George W. Anderson, Jr., Chief of Naval Operations, re ceived the University of Notre Dame's Uaetare Medal for 1963 during a colorful review of 1,800 ROTC cadets and midshipmen on the camfjus. The honor was conferred Sun day on the Navy's highest rank ing officer by Father Theodore M. Hesburgh, C. S. S., Notre Dame president. It has been presented annually since 1883 to as outstanding American Ca tholic layman. here, where the first priest was the son, converted to Ca tholicism, of the then rector of Union Episcopal church in West Claremont. Bishop Primeau told the con vention the presence of non- Cathollcs at the Vaction council was "of prime importance in the ecumenical movement." He said the non-Catholic ob servers at the council "had access to every document 1 had access to—they had better seats than I—and they enjoyed social contacts we didn’t have." He called upon the convention delegates and all Protestants to pray for the leader of the ecumenical movement, His Holiness Pope John XXIII. Bis hop • Primeau said the Second Vatican Council is "not, per se, a council of reunion, but it already has done much to promote better relations be tween Christians" and is a re flection of the attitude of Pope John. "'Hie foundations of the ecu menical movement," the Ca tholic prelate said, "must be laid down by scholars. Pro fessors should be asked to cross religious lines. Unity is not a search for compromise." erly showed no interest. A Washington firm that spe cializes in producing illus trated sales lectures, has do nated equipment to the school and its artists have turned out graphic slides to assist the nuns. The institute is now aband oning the simple textbooks of the lower grades which its stud ents, aged 14 to 20, were often ashamed to read or carry home. It may also help teachers write texts that will appeal to handi capped teenagers unable to make their way in other schools. FATHER MAULISON Atlanta Marist lo Visit Home Parish, May 26 Rev.

FOR PAROCHIAL PUPILS Blanchard Agrees On Auxiliary Aid FRIIlNtPECTIOHYcAUL CE. 7-8494 Single Authority Would Further Unity Cause university park,pa. (NC) — Paul Blanshard conceded in a debate here that auxiliary services may legally be pro vided by government to children in parochial schools. The writer and lecturer known for his attacks on the Catholic Church conceded that the Federal school lunch pro gram, medical services to chil dren in parochial schools and tax-paid bus rides are constit utional "as the law now stands." BLANSHARD debated with William B. Ball, a Harrisburg attorney prominent in Church- State discussions, before an audience at Pennsylvania State University. Blanshard characterized the issue of Federal aid to church- related education as involving "nothing more than the question of whether the public is to sup port the Catholic Church." But he did acknowledge the legitimacy of Federal college scholarships which a student can use at a church-related in stitution. In the two-hour discussion, sponsored by the University De partment of Education Services, Blanshard charged Catholic sc hools are frequently of second- rate quality and create a "div isive mentality" in graduates. HE PEPPERED his remarks with allusions to "thought con trol in Catholic schools,” "hierarchial domination,” "Jesuitical legerdemanin,” and "Franco-loving teachers.” Ball, in reply said that if Blanshard’s charges are true, Catholic school graduates must be monsters who should be kept out of the area of public res- ponisbillty. He called Blan chard's caricature of the sc hools "absurd.” "K the Catholic schools are what Mr. Blanshard says they are, if the Catholic hierarchy is the frightening power bund which he says it is, if the Cat holic teachers are the Tyrants he describes them to be, then theproduct of the Catholic sc hools must be a moral and so cial monster. "BUT THE absurdity of this caricature is plainly revealed when you look to your Catholic neighbor, your Catholic asso ciate at work or Catholics whom you kenw in the service. "Thinking of the latter point, if Mr. Blanshard is right, then Catholics should be excluded from the draft and from every other area of public responsi bility," he said.
