Braves Off
And Running
It's too early to talk pennant, but the
fact that there are 159 games left isn't
keeping Atlanta fans from thinking how
sweet it would be if their beloved Braves
could win one.
The Braves prompted the dreaming this
week when they played like pennant con
tenders against the feared San Francisco
Giants.
All the Braves did was sweep the entire
series, and they did it surprisingly easy, ex
cept for the first game. Even then the
Braves showed they could come from be
hind in the late innings, something a con
tender must be able to do.
Clete Boyer, Sonny Jackson, Felix Milan
and Orlando Cepeda played brilliant de
fense against the Giants. In addition, they
came up with timely hits, like Millan's
grand-slammer that put the second game
out of reach.
Os course, one series doesn't make a sea
son. However, if the series with the Giants
is an indication of how much the Braves
have improved, then it's fair to assume
that Atlanta may be a strong contender in
the National League.
Writers, who fol lowered the Ma jor Lea
gue team in spring training, rated the
Braves a first division club. Some went so
far as to pick them in the Western Division
of the NL.
We aren't ready to join the band-wagon
yet. But we're tempted.
Lock Your Car
Crime is booming, and one of the boomingest branches
of it is automobile theft.
One out of every 107 cars in the nation was stolen last
year, reports Michael J. Murphy, formerly New York City
police commissioner and now president of the National
Automobile Theft Bureau, an investigative network main
tained by more than 400 insurance companies.
That amounted to a total of 776,000 stolen cars, an in
crease of 18 per cent over 1967. Murphy predicts that
more than a million cars, worth more than $1 billion, may
be stolen this year.
“It is becoming more and more difficult to recover
stolen cars,” he says, “because thefts are now being per
petrated by car theft rings backed by organized crime.”
Auto theft rings often steal cars by the dozens in one
state and sell them in another, with buyers lined up before
the cars are stolen. Last year, major rings were broken up
in California, New York, Illinois and Tennessee.
One New York ring was stealing $7,000 Cadillacs in
Massachusetts, registering them in New York and selling
them there for $3,000 each. Another ring stole more than
50 $3,000 cars in New York and shipped them to South
America where they were snapped up for between SB,OOO
and $13,000 apiece.
Morotists literally hold the key to curbing car thievery
to a great extent—at least the casual, spur-of-the-moment
kind—simply by taking the time to lock their cars when
ever they park and taking the keys with them.
All 1970 U. S. model cars will be equipped with lock
ing systems which automatically lock the steering mech
anism and transmission once the ignition key is removed.
Like door locks, however, they will do no good unless
motorists use them.
A new law makes it a federal offense to sell master sets
of car keys in interstate commerce. Similar individual state
laws banning such sales are also needed.
Eight states still do not require the presentation of certi
ficate of title papers when a car is registered. Five of them
are in the Northeast, where car-theft rings are most pre
valent.

MY A
ANSWER
Conflicts
I like to reason things ont for
myself, but I am completely con
fused because of the many
contradictions in life and the
conflicting opinions in the world.
Can you help me? D.G.
God has given us minds with
which to reason. He has also gi
ven established facts, revealed
to us in many ways, and we
should make use of all of these
things. First of all, remember
that we cannot reach out into the
air and take an idea and reason
it into something which is neces
sarily true. Let your reasoning
about God, for instance, begin
with what He has revealed about
Himself. In nature you see on
every hand the evidences of
God’s creative power and His
marvelous wisdom. Take the Bi
ble and read the 19th Psalm and
you will find that nature reveals
God. Then look about you, read
your morning paper, consider
the situation in your own life,
your community and the world,
and you will know that someth
ing is radically wrong. The Bi
ble, which is God’s written re
velation to man, tells us that the
thing wrong is sin in the human
heart. And the Bible also tells us
that God is tremendously con
cerned about this sin problem.
He sent His Son into the world
to clear up this problem for all
who will accept His redeeming
act. With these simple facts, let
your reasoning be guided by
what God tells you of Himself
in His creation and in His Word.
There you will learn to love
and trust in His Son and to ap
preciate His love. This will clear
up your confusion.

Perched at the farthest
reaches of the world known
to the Greeks and Romans
was Albion, the earliest
name for Great Britain,
The World Almanac says.
Aristotle wrote of Albion in
the 300 s B.C. and poets still
use the name. It was prob
ably taken from the Gauls,
in whose Celtic language
the word would mean
"mountain land” or “white
land,” referring to the
chalky cliffs of Dover.
