page 8 Georgia bulletin Thursday, September 5, 1963 — —■ IN BASEBALL Dodger-Yank Clash BY RONDEL Plans are being made for the richest World Series in history as both the Yanks and their arch-rival National League coun- terpar' Dodgers have made shambles of the once tight pennant races. The ancient adage “he who lives by the sword, dies by the sword,” came to pass in modern day and was translated into a proverb which aptly describes the woe of the downtrodden San francisco Giants. The Giant condition might be described as, “He who lives by the home run shall die by the homerun. Alvin Darks charges, once very much in the NL flag scramble found themselves hopelessly mired in third place behind the pitching rich Dodgers and the surprising Cardi nals. The Bay area nine suffered defeat in five consecutive contests due to lack of adequate relief pitc hing in the late innings and were the victim of opponents timely hom ers in all five contests. The San Franciscans slump enabled the hot Dodgers to open in insurmountable gap over their nearest contenders, a gap so large that even if the Los Angeiens duplicated their el foldo fiiish of last season they'd still cop the flag. On the other hand the Yankee's aregiclnga repeat performance of the bame play that ran through the *62 season as they enjoy another cakewalk. Plagued by inquires throughout the campaign the Bombers still managed to make mincemeat of their contenders and once again turn the AL race into a race for second place among the nine- team second division members. Bad news for the Dodgers in the form of a healthy Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris. Bomber pilot Ralph Houk has saved his fear some M and M combo in order that both might be in top shape for the ensuing rendevous with the former Brooklynites. Houk is well on his way to tying a record by his predecessor for most consecutive pennants and World Championships won. Casey Stengel won five in a row and Houk is now in the process of winning his third pennant in as many years at the helm. He has won tow consecutive fall classics. The Yanks will have a number of underlying reasons for wanting to dump the Dodgers. The first is a matter of pride. Secondly, they will be out to avenge their loss to the Dodgers the last time the two squad* met in 1956. Thirdly the Yanks centerfie- lder Mickey Mantle will be out to top the all-time series mark for r otal hr's. The switcher nw trails only Babe Ruth having swatted 14 to the Babe's 15. Manle will enter the series in top physical form for the first time since 1960 when he devasted the Pirates by hitting. 400 and becoming the first man in history to switch hit hr's in the same game. Football reason is fast approaching and all eyes are on the pro-gridiron as the after-effects of the offseason scandal be gan ’to materialize. Next week Close-Up will analyze the NFL teams and offer a prediction on the NFL race. Chicago white sox third baseman Pete Ward is making a ser ious run at the Al's rookie of the year award. His hitting has kept tile Pale Hose nine in the first division while his glove has throttle J many opponents ralite. Al Downing of the Yanks is the other top . andidate for the honor and he will provide tough oppo dtion for Ward. Downing, if he continues his brilliant rookie perfom ante w ill, in the not too distant future emerge as a serius challenger to Sandy Koufax for the speed king title. Downing has posted 10 victories so far and has fanned 10 baiters or more on 7 different occasions. Koufax has performed the aine feat 49 times. Ir Downing continues to progress at this rate iie will top even Koufax in this department. See you no t week with the first of a four part series on the NFL AND AFL football races.

MEDICAL ADVANCES Birth Study Made By Vatican Daily methods so dear to neo-mal- VATICAN CITY, (NC)—The Vatican City daily in three suc cessive issues has dealt with the problems of overpopulation and regulation of births. L’Osservatore Romano led off (Aug. 29) with a review of the ups and downs of interest in the population problem since the time of Thomas Malthus a century and a half ago. “Large ly neglected for a long time, it unexpectedly has leaped into the first rank of preoccupation,” the paper said. NEW INTEREST in popula tion problems stems largely from the presence of depressed nations and the world economy, WASHINGTON (NC) —Civil rights leaders said the August 28 March on Washington proved that members of traditional Christian churches and synago gues are now “substantial al lies.” "It has been slow, like app roaching a cold bath of water, but we are in now,” said one of the 10 co-chairman of the march, Mathew Ahmann, the 32-year-old executive director of the National Catholic Confe rence for Interracial justice, Chicago. THE CHURCHES are finally on the move,” said the Rev. Jay Moore, associate director of the Commission on Religion and Race of the National Coun cil of Churches, a federation of Protestant and Orthodox ch urch bodies in the United States an article by demographer Os car Garavello asserted. "It is useless to linger over the causes which have permit ted what has come to be called demographic explosion” the ar ticle stated. “But what is useful to add is that very often such problems are treated with too much gene ralization: too often they treat as typical the conditions of some countries in which the demogra phic problem is truly drama tic, as for example such regions as Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Cey lon, etc.,*' ON THE OTHER hand the ar- memorial and was part of a delegation of leaders which called on President Kennedy and on leaders of the House and Senate. AHMANN is convinced there will be deeper Involvement of the predominantly white chur ches in the future, “I think that the feelings of churches and white people were strengthened by die March. We have devel oped a new coalition of con science that unites Negro civil liberties groups and religious bodies,” he said. tide took issue with “a hasty favorable judgement on the pos sibility of developing backward countries on the basis of a si milarity, not always valid, with the western economy’s period of expansion in the last cen tury.” In the next issue of Osser- vatore, editor Raimondo Man- zini lashea out at Italian com munist organ Unita for saying "it is true that the Church has done everythingpossible to cre ate in this field (birth regula tion) more suffering than plea sure, considering as immoral any sexual relations that are not accompanied by the desire to procreate.” MANZINI, commenting on this and on assertions in the same Unita article that sexual taboos are “retrogressions and fixations to infantile levels of thought like faith in hypotheti cal beings such as God,” ob served “but in communist doc trine the very concept of sin is repudiated, yet whoever obser ves life even in its psycholo gical aspect alone sees con flict between good and evil cry ing out in every conscience.” The final article in L’Os servatore was by Dr. Giacomo Santori, director of the Italian Center of Sexology. He locked horns with Unita for speaking of the Church's “archaic po sition” and her “defense of un controlled procreation.” HE POINTED out that from the purely medical ami biologi cal point of view “there is a substantial difference between periodic continence and the use of the various contraceptive thusianism.” He also asserted that recent medical advances have given the periodic abstinence method “security that is almost abso lute and in any event not re peat not inferior to that of the most highly rated contraceptive methods.” He asserted that this method of periodic abstinence " is be ing adopted on an increasingly broad scale even by non-Catho- lic couples or couples of no re ligion at all.” Rome Altar Society Meet The September meeting of St. Mary's Altar Society was held at the Rectory with Mrs. Robert Brierly, president presiding. Miss Janie Fahy reported that the visiting committee had been to see about fourteen new parishioners and ill members of the parish during the summer months. Mrs. Joseph DIprima report ed on die sale of Religious ar ticles. The amount of $51.95 was collected since May. The highlight of die meeting was a talk by Father John Mc Donough, pastor of St. Mary's, outlining his plan for increas ing the participation of the wo men of the parish in spiritual development projects and cor poral works of mercy. Following the meeting cake and coffee were served with Mrs. Brierly as hostess. MANY VOLUNTEERS U.S. Church Responding MARCH INDICATES Religious Groups Becoming Allies To Latin America Tasks Rabbi Joachim Prinz, presi dent of the American Jewish Congress and another co-chair man of the massive March, said he was deeply gratified” by the large turnout of religious gro ups and the spirit of inter faith cooperation he saw evid ent in die demonstration. NEARLY 250,000 persons dramatized the wants of Negroes in America b\ walking from the Washington Monu ment to the Lincoln Memor ial where they heard a two^ hour program of speeches. Washington police estimated that about 30 per cent of the crowd was white and Ahnqann said he thought this happened because of the increasing invo lvement of predominantly white churches and synagogues. HE ESTIMATED that 10,000 people marched under Catholic banners alone. “And that may be a low figure,” he added. "The Negro leadership felt that for the first time the ch urches were there in depth,” said Ahmann, who spoke at the CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 "IT APPEARS inconceivable that life on this earth can exi st in its present form if a nuclear war is involved,” he said. “It behooves us then to find a means of avoiding such a war. The Christian approach to the solution of this problem as outlined in Pope John XX- Ill's last encyclical, Pacem en Terris, should be of great val ue in the solution of this pro blem. It is quite possible, to my way of thinking, that the test to which we are being cur rently put— w hether or not man can get along with man—may determine whether or not we are to survive as a species. “Thus the university needs the Church to help the univer sity understand this relation ship between God and knowled ge,” Oliver said. “You, as le aders in the Newman apostola- te, havs the opportunity, nay the obligation, to inform yourselves and then to inform others of how direct the contact be bet ween the Church and university in your field of endeavor. Your position is extremely import ant both in the preparation you receive for your future way of life and for the information you pass on to others. THE danger of “after col lege drop-outs” was discussed by Judge Edmund Reggie of Crowley, La. “Mr. Average—He'left his questions and ideals behind at the halls of ivy,” Reggie said. "He left Christ the Spirit that feeds his soul, he is a self- made reject from theapostolate of the Church. The world be comes his King Supphodana, father of Buddha, who allowed no one to tell his son that misery and poverty existed in the world and raised him in comfort and luxury." Judge Reggie commented. “There was a time when speaking out in America about the rights and dignity of man was as natural as breathing,” he said. “The town hall. Thecon- sidered letter to the editor. The proud indignation that took a wilderness and made it into a land of milk and honey.” “Perhaps our people sweated and starved and died many times to preserve the Faith,” he con tinued. “The after college drop our must take a new look at this sad and glorious and dea dly and eternal business of mar tyrs. What can they do, what can I do? What can the Cat holic, all college completed, do? They can be Catholics. They can be free!' They can breath life into four marvelous words, *Co«r ad cor loquitur.’The cross is big enough for all men to carryu But men must want to carry the cross. Noting the August 28 March on Washington for “jobs and freed om" the delegates at Mass that day prayed for racial harmony and a peaceful solution to the race question. Pope Pleads For Lay Help CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 reason of the very fact that the layman is a Christian. “THE LAYMEN cannot be be negative element, nor can he be passive or neutral. Much le-;s can he stand up against the w ave of the Spirit which Christianity- instills in souls. “While in preceding ages the hierachy arrogated completely to Itself both the responsibility and the exercise of every minis try of sanctification and evange lization, today the hierarchy it self calls the laity to colla borate at its side in the great work of evangeliation.” POPE PAUL had arrived at Frtscati at 8 a.m., where he was received by his Secretary of State, Amleto Cardinal Ci- cognani, who is titular Bis hop Luigi Liverzani, Ordinary of Franscati. Following the Mass, after he had given his blessing to the crowd, the Pope talked to U.S. Secretary of Commerce Luther H. Hodges. The American cabi net minister, a Methodist, had attended the Mass with his family. The Pope then returned by automobile to Castelgandoifo in time to appear at the balcony overlooking his villa’s inner courtyard to speak a few words and impart his blessing to the people waiting him there.
