thought. A leader in the

well be proud of the fact
that four of the eight

Added to this, of course
is the admirable fact that
both the winner and the
runner-up, Winston - Sa

through in grand style,
and the local team. Saint

certainly did itself proud.

Nothing said above is
meant to detract from the
honor of Winston-Saleni’s
victory. It was their first
championship, and they
earned it the hard way,
certainly. Their victory ov

Perilious Times
The apparently deliber

down of two allied planes
—one American and one
British—by Reds in East
ern Germany, came at a
most unfortunate time, if
such a happening could
be more unfortunate at
one tinq. than another.
The incidents, or at least
mm of them, were aggra
vated by an apparently
deliberate—and suceeslul
- —effort to kill some of the
hapless fliers who attemp
ted to bail out after the
plane was wrecked by gun
fire.

because there x an uncertainty
as the major aims.
A few of the more intelligent
and better educated know and
apprt ciate the threat that Coin
in mi-ul poses; wo know at
what price our great country
wa founded and preserved; we
know at,nut the clay fe- 1 Os
Communism and its pm ten
sion:,; v/c appreciate what even
our limited freedom means as
against the regimentation of
communism; we cannot take the
-ask involved in burning the
barn to get th« rats.
In other words we btkieve
that when Communism and de
mocracy nr. carried to their
logics I eom.Ti.is ions, democracy
has inherent advantages with
which Community cannot coih
piue. But a. of today the Com
munism of Stalin and Lenin
has bt-euine a world contagion,
which at present must be re
strained i-y force of arms.
Yet we know that arms and
force Cannot ultimately cope
with an ideology such as Com
munism But democracy must
be protected even by arms until
such time as its inner powers
assert themselves.
In other words, Irrespective
iif wh.it Malenkov aspires to
accomplish to perpetuate Com
munism and faciiiate its world
wide pretentions, this nation’s
safety is somehow tied up tilth
; tro n g military- preparedness
and a strom? program for the
