* THIS WEEK’S SPORTS EDITORIAL 4- •£
School Sports • •
Weekends Only
The State Board of Education has issued a ruling ban
ning all school-sponsored sports events on all but Friday
and Saturday nights.
Griffin High is fortunate. The ruling won’t hurt its
athletic program.
Griffin High’s athletic events, except basketball,
shouldn’t feel any affect from the ruling.
Griffin football games are played on Fridays, and
sometimes Saturdays. The Eagles play baseball in the
afternoon, with the exception of a couple of games.
Changing those ought not create a problem.
Basketball will be affected more. It will mean fewer
games. That could he a wholesome thing.
Under present high school rules a team is limited to
26 games. The limit does not include tournaments.
After a team plays 26 games, then participates in
tournaments, the number of games reaches into the 30’s.
That’s too many, although avid basketball fans may
not think so.
Some people have long felt that a team that plays 26
games (sometimes three nights a week) is tired and worn
out by the time tournaments roll around.
If that’s true, then the new ruling will benefit basket
ball and not harm it.
Of course, the new ruling creates the problem of play
ing back-to-back games (coaches aren't fond of that)
and going five days without playing. (Some coaches feel
a basketball team becomes stale when not active.)
The State Board of Education made the ruling in the
interest of the students.
Overall it seems to be a good one.

Mrs. America
Spanks Children
Discipline, Mrs. America said to reporters in Chicago
the other day, is the key word in child rearing.
Mrs. America, by the way, is Mrs. Alice Buehner, a
slender, 34-year-old, blue-eyed, chestnut-haired mother
of six who lives in Salt Lake City.
“Spank a child if he needs it,” she continued. “I cer
tainly do. Permissiveness is the big reason we have so
many bad kids in this country. The children are running
the parents—it should be the other way around.”
Mrs. Buehner neither smokes nor drinks. She keeps
fit on a trampoline and by skiing and swimming. She
also paints and sings. All of which sounds as though she
covers a lot of territory.
As far as we’re concerned, however, when it comes to
child-rearing she hit the nail on the head, dead center.
We Weep Not
For Poll Tax
WAYCROSS JOURNAL HERALD
The poll tax is no more and its demise is unmourned
by most Americans.
Recently the U. S. Supreme Court outlawed the tax
in state elections.
Earlier the adoption of the 24th Amendment had bar
red the levy for voting in federal elections but Virginia,
Mississippi, Alabama and Texas had retained it for state
elections.
The High Court, ruling in a Virginia case, declared
that wealth “has no relation to voting qualifications. The
right to vote is too precious, too fundamental to be so
burdened or conditioned.”
The Court based its decision on the “equal protection
clause” of the 14th Amendment.
It is a fact of great pride to progressive Georgians that
our state abolished the poll tax a long time ago.
The poll tax was installed as a device in some states to
curb Negro voting. But it soon became clear that it was
keeping more poor White people away from the polls
than Negroes.
The late Georgia Gov. Eugene Talmadge came out
against the poll tax saying it discriminated against the
“poor man.” It was eliminated in the state long before
the 24th Amendment was adopted.
The right to vote, as the Supreme Court said, should
not be abridged because of economic status.
Now that this barrier and others have been removed
there is no longer any credible excuse for people to shirk
their responsibility as citizens on election day.

“Just as I suspected, monsieur—a long-haired wig, false

‘SECRET BEATNIK’!”
MY
ANSWER!
Good In World
You and other preachers are
always talking about sin. What
about the good in the world?
Wouldn’t it be better to emphas
ize the positive side of Christia
nity? P.Y.
The Christian faith is realistic
about this matter of sin. We
can’t escape it; there is a dark
side to human nature. Read
your newspaper. Look within
your own heart. There is a sad
expression on toe average hu
man face. The Bible says qu
ite frankly that within every
man’s heart is a sense of lost
ness. If you are going to be a
Christian you must begin to think
realistically about human na
ture. We must face up to the
negative aspects of our nature
before we can begin to think
positively. Sometime we must
say: “God be merciful to me a
sinner,” This shatters our self
satisfaction and ushers us into
the Presence of God.
Even though the Christian fai
th is realistic about sin, it is not
pessimistic. It says: “Even
though a man be dead, if he be
lieve in me, he shall live.” It
says; “As many as received
him, to them gave he the power
to become toe sons of God.”
The depth of our sin is mea
sured by the price God paid to
conquer it in our lives — the
giving of His only begotten Son.
Until you squarely face up to
your lostness, you can never tr
ust Christ for Salvation.

Thy love and be Instrumental

centered life brings life eternal.
With thankful hearts we pray in
