SOUTHERN GENTLEMAN
Hawk On A Rampage
BY RONDEL
Big Bob Pettit, pro-basketball's southern gentleman, is lead
ing the St. Louis Hawks on a rampage that might eventually net
them the National Basketball Association championship.
Pettit, a graduate of Louisiana State College, and one of the most
prolific scorers in the history of the NBA is constantly establish
ing new records. The big (6’9) forward and center has had to do a
lot of adjusting since the arrival of behemoth Wilt Chamberlin.
BEFORE CHAMBERLIN Pet
tit had the whole league to him
self. He became the first man in
history to eclipse the 2,000
point scoring plateux, when he
scored 2,105 points in 1960. At
present he is closing in on every
career scoring and rebounding
mark in the history of the NBA.
Adjusting wasn’t an easy task for Pettit. But he made the trans
ition so smoothly and quietly it was amazing. The Hawks, once
the power of the league slowly began to disintegrate. From the 1959
title playoff game they went to dead last in 1961.
THROUGH THE DESCENT Pettit continued to play consistent
ball. The grind of playing everyday, 80 games a year is no easy
task on Pettit at age 36, but dedicated Bob still manages to aver
age around 28 points per game.
Bot Pettit is a realist. He knows that he is the bread and butter
man of the Hawks. He realizes that without him in the lineup the
team is apt to lose more games than itwill win. He realizes that
when he does not play he is letting his teammates down. This is why
he pushes himself to the extreme.
PETTIT OFTEN PLAYS with sprained or twisted ankles. Many
times he dresses out and plays whenhe has a cold. He always gives
his all. A tireless competitor, Pettit is always hustling, and gentle
man that he is, you never hear him complain.
He is perhaps the finest jump shot artist to ever appear in the
National Basketball Association. He has the softest touch of any
shooter in the league, and doubles as a fierce rebounder and stur
dy defensive ace.
ONE OF THE CHIEF things that many people overlook is the
fact that Pettit always draws the other teams top scorer. Players
like Chamberlin, Russell and Bellamy. Men who are considered
tops in the league. These players handle the ball more than any
one else on their respective team and as a result Pettit must be in
action at all times.
Obviously this serves to sap his strength, but still he goes on. He
is neither a complainer nor a "bluchouse lawyer.'* He is a hard-
fighting, righteous catholic ballplayer who stands upfor what he be
lieves in.
HE IS THE PLAYER representative on the Hawks and fights
owners every step of the way. He doesn’t create a scene or make
headlines. He argues diplomatically and he usually wins.
Had he chosen to be a lawyer instead of a ballplayer, he would
undoubtedly be the finest one in the nation. He is the type of man
who has a quick smile, a winning personality, and a kind word for
everyone.
WITH THE EMERGENCE of Chamberlin and Russell, Pettitmay
never again be the league’s top scorer, nor the league’s top re-
bounder. But when it comes to balloting for the best five players in
the league you can bet Pettit will be on the squad.
Likable Bob has made the all-star squad every year he has been
in the league. He is an all-around star and ranks among the finest
hoopsters to ever don a pro-uniform.
PETTIT NOT ONLY excels in the shooting department. He Is a
fine rebounder, drives with the best in the business and is an excel
lent playmaker.
In fact, he often passes up shots to "feed” his teammates. This
is something you won’t find any of the "new generation’’ of stars
doing. He is not an individualist.
BOB PETTIT HAS A warm personality, is quick with a smile and
equally quick witted. His huge frame seems to drag or slouch when
he walks, giving the impression that he is awkward.
Nothing could be further from the truth. He has the grace of a
gazelle on the court.
BOB’S GENEROSITY is another point to expound on. He often
spends an hour or two after a practice or game signing auto
graphs for starry eyed youngsters.
He is a tireless competitor and a consistent donar to worthy
causes of every kind.
In the clutch, be it basketball or life, you can count on Bob Pet
tit, everybody’s all-star.

LAST
WEEK'S PUZZLE
Religious Liberty
Man’s Basic Right
ROME (NC)—The head of the
Church’s Christian Unity office
has called religious liberty an
"inalienable and undeniable
right of man.”
Consequently, the fact that the
Second Vatican Council is deal
ing with religious liberty is of
vital Importance for mankind
now and forever, Augustin Car
dinal Bea said.
THE PRESIDENT of the Sec
retariat for Promoting Chris
tian Unity was addressing the
convention of Italian Catholic
Jurists (Dec. 13). He spoke at
the Campidoglio—Rome’s city
hall—in the presence of Mayor
Glauco della Porta. His sub
ject was "Religious Freedom
and the Transformation of So
ciety." »
He said: "In a time when so
many forms of materialism and
of athiesm, both theoretical and
practical, are seeking with
every means to sweep all re
ligion from the face of the
earth, or even to root out the
very need of it from the hearts
of men, it is a basic duty to
proclaim loudly the inalien
able and undeniable right of
man to the freedom to honor
God privately and publicly, to
proclaim and propagate his re
ligion, according to the precept
of one’s own upright con
science.*’
CARDINAL BEA pointed out
that the indispensable founda
tion of such liberty is always
that liberty from the rule of
passions, which is known as
self-mastery. This aspect of
liberty was underlined by St.
Paul, the Cardinal said. He
called St. Paul "the herald
and hero of liberty.”
Freedom from his passions
allows man to seek truth, Car
dinal Bea said, and pointed out:
"The very first grave duty of
man is to seek to know the
whole truth, liberating himself
earnestly from Ignorance and
from error.
"Everyone must therefore
seek possibility of moral and
religious instruction.*’
SEIZED IN CHURCH
Vietnam Priest
Beaten By Band
SAIGON, Vietnam(NC)—Fa
ther John Baptist Nguyen cao
Loc of My-A parish in the Hue
archdiocese was seized by an
anti-Catholic band on Nov. 27
and badly beaten, according to
a statement issued by the vicar
general and a committee of the
archdiocese.
Father Loc is vice director
of Catholic Action and chaplain
of the local Catholic youth or
ganization as well as doing pas
toral work in My-A parish.
HE WAS KNEELING before
the altar In his church at 5
a.m. on Nov. 27 preparing for
Mass when a group of men,
mostly young, broke in. They
damaged some religious ob
jects in the church, made a
search and seized the priest.
They tied him, blindfolded him
and took him away.
According to local authori
ties, the captive priest was
brought to Vinh-Loc district
headquarters after having been
dragged and pushed a distance
of nearly five miles. Several
times along the way his captors
stopped to abuse and ill treat
him publicly.
WHEN RELEASED apparent
ly the same day, he bore cuts
and bruises on his head and
shoulders.
Later, Father Loc issued a
statement in which he said:
"I am happy to shed some
drops of my blood on this be
loved land. For God’s sake and
following Christ’s example, I
have suffered offenses against
my honor and my person. I of

the spread of the Faith in this

district. I gladly shook hands
with the man who had confes
sed himself responsible. I re
quested the authorities not to
arrest the wrongdoers when the
head of Thua Thien province
kindly visited me two days af
ter I came to Hue. His Intention
was to punish severly those who
by unlawful acts tried to create
disorder and thereby oppose the
goal of the revolution, among
them the communist hirelings
in particular. The vicar gene
ral, Msgr. Dominic Tran van
Phat and his committee re
minded Catholics of the "tra
ditional position of the Church:
give love for hatred, pardon for
injury, and concord for dissen
sion.” They added: "The Chris
tian who has been arrested and
molested should not respond by
vindictive actions. In the face
of injustice and abuses,heshould
state his position clearly to
the responsible authorities and
ask that his rights be respect
ed, but he should do that through
legal and peaceful ways. . .
Against discriminations, slan
ders and false accusations we
should respond by a high sense
of national solidarity and hu
man brotherhood.”
