AU efforts of the club are directed towards the welfare of the youth of the town, not once- accepting the fruits of Its labors for Its own e n ­joyment.

I t Is with this thought in mind that the Booster Club appeals to all men of the town to join In and make it possible for our youngsters to enjoy better conditions In the athletic sense.

A direct contact Is being made with as many organlmtions as possible In towli. with the Idea ,of selling group tickets for the ban ­quet. Each organization will have a table sot aside for ahy of Its mem­bers who are to at tend, and a p ­propriately carded. In the event tha t there has been no contact made, a n d ' t h e y doslrc to attend, a phone call to the High School will bring rapid results. -

'Are Sin, Disease and Death Real?'.' will be the subject of the Lesson-Sermon for.Sunday April 9 1950.

The Golden Text is from Provei;bs 12:28. "In the way of righteousness is l i te; and In t h e pathway thereof tfiere is no death." . ,

Selections from the Bible include the following: "For thus saith the Lord, Behold. I will bring i t ' hea l th and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abun­dance .of peace and truth." (Jer.33:4,6). . . . ,

Correlative passeges from the Christian Science texbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scrip­tures," by Mary Baker Eddy, include the following . (p.353): "The Chrlstlanly scientific real . is the sensuous unreal . Sin,'disease, w h a t ­ever seems real to mater ial sense, is unreal in divine Science. The physical senses and Science have ever been antagonistic, and ' thej* win so continue, till the testimony of the physical senses yields enr llrely to Christian Science."

East Shore Jewish Center Holds Seder

Last Sunday afternoon the East Shore Jewish Center lield a Com­munity Seder a t the Branford Grange Hall In celebration ot the Passover holiday. The Seder was well" a t tended by members of the Center and their families, number­ing over 85 people. Passover serv­ices,, were .conducted .both In He­brew arid'EngUsli by .Mr . Wallace MandeU.

Mr. MandeU, a graduate s tud­en t a t Yale, University, Is " t he ;reg~ ;ulai: teacberio£;'.the. Jewlsh;Center Sunday School. The tables, a r ­ranged in U-shape, were beautiful­ly decorated and laden with foods symbolic of, the Passover 'hol iday.

'•.Preparation' ' 'aiid' refreshments were handled by committees under tlie chairmanship iof. Mrs. N. C. Raymond and Mr. Louis Grosbaum.

The Loy'ality Group', of the Short Beach Union. Church will hold a rummage and food sale a t the church on Saturday, May 13th. Any person having articles they wish to donate .niay call .Wrs. Carl Ander­son, Mrs. Franklyn Meek or Mrs. Edward Evis and arrangements to be made to, pickk up items. ' .

When I made my Interviews this week, I didn' t get the sort ot a n ­swers I bad.expected, though I was glad to find a lot of people really do take Easter seriously. All were quite willing to give their vvlows, bu t none wished to be quoted, be­cause they felt t ha t they couldn't very well orlllclze others, when they too were guilty of doing some ot the things ,of which they dis­approved. The question was, "What do you think about Easter Parades?" . '

Here Is composite of some of the answers I received-

"I th ink Easter Parades are all right, for certainly everyone loves a parade, and It gives us a chance to see the new spring styles and ha ts , but why does it have to be done on Easter Sunday? Couldn't another day be set aside for this purpose a n d ' m a y b e call this day 'Spring Style Day'? Tliere coiild still be a parade and I'm sure everyone would get Just as much enjoyment out of the occasion. Yes, Easter is a time 'to be happy, but It seems to me we are being happy about everything but what wo should be—the anniversary of Jesus Christ 's Resurrection I" If someone were to ask you what you got new for Easter, as most general­ly Is the question at this time, wouldn't tliey bo mighty surprised •if you answered them by saying; '^Nothing material — It was • all spiri tual;"

Another one thought tha t Easter, along with Christmas, was al to­gether too commercialized. We can ' t very well have the true feeling.of spiritual happiness a t Enster time, when all around us wo see all sorts ot things to take the original feel­ing away, like chocolate bunnies, egg dyes, ba.skels, colored live baby chicks" and dozens ot other things one feels they have to buy If they want to g o ' along with the times and look heal Eastery. The very fact t ha t the trees bud and blossom out with new life a l this time of; year Is. significant enough, ot what Easter means. The trees seem to die In the fall of the year, and God resurrects them, along with many other things. Just as He did Jesus, on this day ot days. Just look around you and you will see plenty of beautiful' reminders of . w h a t Enster means, t ha t Is, of course If you can see above and around the afore-mentloned' commercial ob-Jectsl

ask the question again s o : i just •asked the next person; "What do you think about .Easier/' -Cleaving off the par t about parades.

" I think Easter should be about the liniiplest tlhifS of year for every­one. We ."ihould all take time out to stiSp and think what this day really means, and rejoice, and go to church. A lot ot people only go to church on Easter Sunday Some ot us condemn these people, bu t I say "God Bless them for going, tor every one sliould go to churcli on this day If they never go any other day. In the year I"

But In Christ, He Is the Word of Ood, made flesh, and this fleshly word of God descended from heaven, using the human vessel to demonstrate the love of God and to show humans, the express Image of His (God's) person.

Don't let any one tool you, as to what God looks like. Christ Is God, and Clirlst appeared as a man and man Is made lii tho express Image ot God. God produced himself and his outward personality. In man. Christ, showed his disciples and his Apostles what God was like, both In body and spirt. . .- To those who did not see the Bless­ed Christ In person, as did the early disciples.

TRIO OF SPORT LEADERS OF EAST HAVEN ATHLETICS

Up In Boston town a slight youth is preparing to top"off an ttthietic carper. It was nn odd one in which he dlstlnguishecl his college by his fobtbdll efforts yet never Was granted a football letter. " " It Was In the war years when the phenomena took place. Holy Cross was one of the schools which had naval students among its reglstranU, Consequently It had a football team which played o regular schedule (vnd like most of the Cross teams', it acquitted Itself with'the pwple ttrchida'of abettor than average setison.

But In' the"Bean-loWn,,the Ivlaroon and Gold colors of Bpslpn College had npt brightened the swhrd of Braves Field for an entire seoiori'. The gloom on the B.C. campus was not lessened a bit mbre livhehtho dismal .students recalled tiiat the Worchcster School had

•pasted the red iind gold by li'rpcbrd 56-12 score In otie of the groateat lili. e't.' m the history of the long rivalry, the yerir jjrevloUs. , '' The Denny Myers array was rated ns one of the strongest teams In the country In 1042 when it slepiied oh the field on the Saturday after Xhanksgivlrig but when the carnage had been sWcpt nslde, there in the afunlns of a mighty reputation was a chastened, blubbering hulk of a &nce great combination. '•\ The roar of acclaim waa tremendous when the Crusaders reached 'JVorce'ster. Truly there never was a football team which smashed tradition, and the betting circles, to smltherlness, as had that eleven.

The feats of other hallo\yed athletes, Clancy, Harvey, Ryan, Osmanlsk ere paled into insignificance as town and gown, cnmasae, trumpeted clr praises to the skies.

For weeks the papers blanoned their streamers with the upset win. Nor wai the carnage forgotten. , But next year for reasons mqntionpd; elsewhere, principally the •war, If was, decided thaf'Bdstbn would not send Its athletes to the gridiron and match Its draft depleted ranks against the swollen reserve lists of most of Its college opponcn'tB. ' Thus when the November date neared, the story.of the groat ro-versal'oncd again'was Inserted into nev/a columns. In Boston, a lad, Robert'pwcns brooded with the rest of the school, „ ' • Perhaps some way of playing the Cross could be found. ' Ab, the brashness of youthi

III due course a letter was forwarded to the Jesuits on the hilltop of 'Worcester. It pleaded for a chance to meet the purple team. The ^hallango was substantiated by numerous alumni appeals vvhlch were signed by lawyers and doctors, by famous and ordinary; ' •

Miracle of miracles, the demand was accepted but the game wpuld bo played af'Plttbn Field instead of .Braves ballRij.rk.. • Thpti catme tho mighty effort. The lame, the sick, the woory, the hasbeens, the neyer-would-bea, were routed from, the halls of Catholic learning In the Hub arid ntted to Eagle's claws., " • On the appointed ddy In 1943, four men in.strlped shirts and white knlckorbookors trotted on tho field at 1:30. A filled stand of 10,000 sat silent for a moment, watched a coin spin into the air and then rose as a yellowed'plgSkhi tumbled lazily through the ozone;to settle into the white jerseyed arms of a Hoya back. Then tliey waited for a repetition Of the massacre of a year ago.

And it looked po.'islble. That is until the second period when Boston College sent a tiny

flgurcinto the game. It was the same Robert Owens. The program in­dicated that ho was from Branford, Connecticut. Ho played quarterback.

•With no hesitation he started throwing passes. He reaJlzed that to ' stay ori the ground •Was to hand the ball to that .•Immensb Holy Cros?

forward wall. Yet, hi? knia'y/ that only possesslpn ot the leather wouid keep the scoro down. ' , f

Dbwn after down he pitched to some spindle-legged end or back and the ball unerringly found Its, mark.

•When tho defense played" too far back In an effort to snip oft the 1 wondrous hurling, his crossed them by pounding the line;, even hurling his 135 pounds Into the tltatis on'occasion. ' , ' , ' . } ; '

Holy Cross vjoh that game, i t memiJry Is correct It was three touoh-• downs" to two. But'tii'b thunderous clap, of acclaim woa'-iiot dlrbctejl

toward the poised athletes of the home school"when the;contest was ove^, InStbod It was lathered on the slight llgUrb whoi prootlcally olonji, had staved oft the powerful thrusts of a strong opponent' terlashlontng an otfbn.se of his own to rcfutb somebody's saying tha t a good offense Is the'bcst defense. . •

The praise was deserved for the lad had completed fifteen passes out of seventeen pitches. , .

Baoic home In Branford and particularly Short Beach, the residents took the news with some ]oy. A survey of the pages of sports history failed to reveal that he had ever played any football except the sandlpt variety on the stony expanse of Pardee Park.

The followers of iVio pigskin sport were thrilled. also that he could pass so unerringly. 'Sfct, sbrriehow they were not aimazed. Tot Owens *ad always had the knack of coming through In the pinches.

At Branford High, his prep 'school for college, he went out for basket-, ball In his first year. Coach' Johnny Knecht kept Wm with the second tearri although he was teihpted to drop him because of his height which

. was knee high to a mosquito. But in'the routine tryouts which he gave . all his sqund, the astute mentor realized that tho lad could do every

fundamental askoil,of him. '. , I fli.s ,'ili()ollhg!^as .excellent. His passing wjis i\ocijrttte and'his floor-

work satisfactory;.-'! V , . . > , , Biit there vifttf a psychological barrier In the lad's,way. Everytlme he

•\ 'ei\l,oii the flobr;:elther as a substitute or In pre-game; practice, tiie crowd, especlallyitho, female element, would gusli,' "Isn't he cute?". Knecht kriey^ .tligt lie wpul l sompdajf be. an oxceUent plpyer and he didn't like to Save the,lad become .cprisclpus of his jjhysjcal.doflclericy. All high school kids grow but some start later than others, wis his theory

In his .early years the lad's best games were played on \the practice court, but once.h^'dld make the live,'tbe crowd grew to rbcognize,his ability vvhIbhwSg-man-size and after the first surprise was evidenced, his Deponents know their woric was cut out for thorn.

The proof of Knccht's tlilhkirig was found In later years at a bone-fit game played fibre between the Branford servicemen and the 'West Haven Red Devlls'.wbon pwons came dawnfrpm Boston and played against the Connecticut pro champs. Naturally the beviis iwon. It was expected since the local team was drawn from t\ie earth's four corners with only a Saturday afternoon of practice but the coUegcman was just as big as tlie best yjhen he hooped In ten ppints and aet up as many or more wltli his stellar play-maklhg. V '•

i n baseball^ too, P.wen.s is pne.ofitl^c towel's better players although he seldom doris'a suit today. Besides playing a strong.irtfield ho Is, you guessed it, a pitcher,., , ... ,, .

"But the story of tlie 55 to ,12 uPSet has a,,seqi}ql. Four years ago, a powerful Branford man wanted to go to college.

He told his Irienfts that he d.ldn't'.have much money but that he ;w.as •willing to play.football to attain his eriUs] ,

Tot's ,football .ability had made a hit with Denny Myers, and .Tot, ever;on theipbkbul,tbhelp alobal boy,irraii^'ed for EpPetbla to;wltnes!. a'few spring practices and meet the B! cl coach. In a few iiotrs, Petola was set for the following a\itu,mh. '

He was a standout In the freshman games but In the varsity ranks tho wins were stIU being inked in Vhb'Holy Cross aide of the lodger.

Again in his sophomore year, the purple returned the plg^ln cfown to Its hideaway in the Worcester tiiUs.Ed did'hoi get into the game.

Early last Fall, Boston CPlle"go"fqotb5ll flouiidcrod. Week after week, a potentially fine teain was uri'able to get started, hut In his rooin In the graduate law section of B. C, D. W. Owen's boy felt that big,Ed should be first string.

A succession of breaks gave him his chance and Ed, with his loping. , high-splrltcd gait broke Into publicity's pages.

Nevertheless, Holy Cross virtth Its poorest team In history, was rated about even with the Eagles. ,•

I t was a raw, cold, gray-afternoon when tho two combines met on Braves Wold on the traditional November date. But, the chill of the day pould'not match the cold fury with whlcK Boston wiped out most of the scoring records between the two'teams—and one of-the best'vvas p a Individual scoring record established by Tot Owen's protege, Ed |

a navy veteran. A year ago tho team finished

fourth in the seven team league which was won bv WalUngford With Branford and New Haven tied for the runner-up berth.

The high school mentor expects to Improve on that record this year since he has a veteran team return­ing, one which will play together as members of East Haven High this Spring.

Nevertheless boys who will not have reached their seventeenth year prevlPus to January 1 of this year will be welcomed when try-outs statt at the close of the high school campaign.

The reason for East Haven's .strength lies in the fact that tho High School built his array with the Idea that they would ibe strong this season when he : became aa-.soclatcd with the team last summer.

Bill Blxby, a lanky center, was chosen to lead the basketball squad through next years schedule. Playl-ng first string center for 'the J-Vecs, "Cato" showed exceptional talent aronu4 the bucket. Ills hlgh-arclng sctahots and driving; typo of ball stamped him as valuable varsity material. Blxby wound up the season playing varsity ball in tine fashion, hitting the cords for 10 counters against Seymour High, East Haven's last stepping stone on their way to a C.I.A.C. tourney

' Connecticut farms are smaller ^ than the average for the Nation as a whole, but much more valuable. The average farm in this State Is 63% below the national average In number of acres, but is worth iiVc more in terms of value of land,, building, implements and machinery. Incidentally, 9B,'7% of of all Connecticut farms are on electric lines. No other state in the U. S, has as large a percentage of its farms on electric lines.

this week was the announcement from tho Harry Bartlett Post, American Legion that it would enter the junior baseball play In this district.

State • athletic officer, Roland Graves said that the team would again be managed by Frank Crlsdll, tain Don igo as the team nears Its opening game with .WalUngford on ApVU 18th.

Baseball practice entered its third week as things started to shape up In tho final East Haven oiit. There arc 30 candidates left ,,but,a final cut" of approximately nine or lo boys to get the /Ilhal .Squod down to about 20. Although the final cut Is near, many posi­tions, ore still not definite. On first base a bitter fight Is stiU raging between last year's fifst stringer, Warren Smith, and a now-ooomor from Hlllhouse, BUI Reynolds. Around tho Keystone sack throe candidates arc fighting'It out, biit Bubbe Mautte might get the nod over Micky porrllll and Decatcur Underwood because of the most power bat between ,the three of them.
