It was the first victory of the season for Helper. From the opening buzzer to he closing Helper had the Mohawks on the run. They played tremendously in the first half working the fast break and scoring well. The halftimc score was 21 t olO in favor of Helper. During the third and fourth quar ters the two teams played on equal terms, and when the game was over the Rams had won by a considerable margin. The starting five for Helper were John Bradley, Bob Taniguchi, Coy Day, Gerald Mills and Reggie Peterson. They played most of the first half. In the second half Coach Harold Cunningham cleared his bench and gave all of his players an opportunity to play. The high point man in the game was Bob Taniguchi with a total of 12 points; most of which were made in the first quarter. Gerald Mills was second with 8 points. s I'm certain that all the enjoyed the game and hope that many more will follow. East Carbon Defeats Helper One week after a Ram victory the East Carbon Mohawks turned the tables on Helper and defeated them 30 to 24 in a game played in the East Carbon Jr. It was a hard High School. fought battle from start to finish, with the Mohawks coming out on top winning their first game of the season. In the first quarter the Rams started as if they would defeat the Mohawks by a large score by scoring first and leading 8 to 2. But all at. once they lost their scoring touch and East Carbon caught up and passed them never to be behind. The halftime score was 14 to 9. The game was very exciting and interesting but to the referees it was a nightmare. Throughout the contest a total of 40 fouls were committed 25 against the Mohawks and H against the Rams. Coy Day has 6 points; Gerald Mills and John Bradley had 5 apiece; and Reggie Peterson and Bob Taniguchi scored 4 each. It was a victory for the Mohawks as they played impressively. As soon as Helper got within striking distance the Mohawks scored baskets and got back into a safe lead. All in all the game was a good one.

Seorgt S. Benion Lll.lMlll i j j j. j J i j j The researches of these women have enlarged the body of new medical information and helped solve a wide variety of health problems. Not least among these was the conquest of a virus that killed and crippled its victims in wave after wave of epidemics polio. Pioneer in Protection Dr. Isabel Morgan Mountain is one of the most famous of these women scientists. As a member of the Johns Hopkins research group some years ago, she won medical recognition for demonstrating that animals could be protected against polio by a vaccine. This was a giant step toward the development of the Salk vaccine for humans, which like Dr. Mountain's .work was done under grants financed by the March of Dimes. Dr. Mountain's parents, Dr. and Mrs. Thomas Hunt Morn gan, were both geneticists. Her father won a Nobel Prize in 1933 as the originator of the gene theory of heredity. Dr. Mountain, who is married to a prominent surgeon in New York, is included in the Polio Hall of Fame at the Georgia Warm Springs Foundation.

MMinrtIT fcSCsV EDUCATION fROSKAM Surcy, ArUiiMi LOYALTY OATH NEEDED Some universities and colleges are refusing to participate in the Federal Defense Loan program because the student receiving a loan from it must pledge allegiance to the United States of America and sign an affidavit declaring he is not a member or supporter of the Communist Party. Some of them say this requirement "represents an affront to freedom of belief and conscience." Most Americans will not agree with this viewpoint. The student loan loyalty oath is just another safeguard which our Congress has erected against the continuing growth of an evil force dedicated to our utter destruction. If a student or prospective student believes in the violent overthrow of the U. S. Government and the establishment of Khrushchev as Red Dictator of our nation, and is working as a conspirator to achieve that goal, then no university or governmental agency or college president should be covering up his true colors and financing his education. A normal young man or woman should be proud to declare loyalty to country. CoIIcpe Trained Reds The Communist world-wid- e apparatus draws most of its leadership staff from among college graduates. When the U S. Army Investigated the astounding success of Communist "brain washing" of American GI's in the North Korean prison camps, it was revealed that the Communist instructors at the camps were in many instances graduates of American colleges and universities. Their college education had helped prepare them to become highly valuable propagandists and psychologists adept at controlling the minds of The Defense Loan fund is par- ticularly generous to students who are preparing to become teachers. For these half the money borrowed (up to $5,000) becomes, in effect, an outright gift; not requiring repayment. This feature attracts many teach- -, er candidates. And teachers who are not loyal to the United States can do more damage than any other category of Communist conspirators. - long-ran- Communists ge In College Just recently a 91 year old man came to our offices seeking material with which he might alert the people in his community to the dangers of Communism. He told about his daughter who had become a Communist while a student in an American university. He said that after a number of years away from college she claimed to have divorced herself from Communism. But he said he doubted it. This woman had become a Communist through the recruitment efforts of other student Communists at the university she attended. One recent Fall school opening, a young man entered a teachers college in a Western state. He quickly became a member of the Communist Party cell on the campus. His father saw the radical change taking place in him and upon investigation found that he had become a Communist. The father went to the college president. Warping The Mind The father later testified at a legislative hearing: "I complained to him (the college president) about the activities of these young Communists and the Communist Party generally, there at the normal school and told him how they were weaning my son away from his home, and from the church and from everything decent, for that matter, and all the consolation I got out of him (the college president) was th statement: 'Mr. , someday you will be proud of your boy, he's alright.' " This college president felt the father's complaint against the Communists was "an affront to freedom of belief and -- conscience." The college president was mistaken; the father never became proud of his son. The son, alienated from family and apparently a steadfast Communist, became a teacher in one of the big Western universities. There are many similar documented cases avail-- I able showing the extensive damto inage that can be caused dividuals and to our nation by an attitude of a college head permitting Communists and Communist activities to make evil use , of the very freedom they are determined ultimately to destroy. The loyalty oath for students borrowing money from the Federal government represents one blockade to the Communists, in one of the most vital areas of their work education. It is comforting to know that many American colleges and universities accept it as an appropriate step in our national defense. I ! ( I ( Phone News Item See Us to Journa-l- First!
