Win or Lose. It s Still Uur 1 earn:
r
We don't predict an unbeaten record but
we do expect the Owen High Warhorses to
provide their share of thrills for local fans
before they ring down the curtain on the
1956 season.
It is a rugged schedule which the coaches
and the players have arranged and they’ll
take some jolts between Hendersonville and
Waynesville, but they will have the 100 per
cent cooperation and best wishes of the com
munity as they try to equal or to improve
the 6-4 standing of 1955. With the consoli
dation of the county schools there are no
soft touches in the conference now'. Add to
these teams Hendersonville, second in the
state in 1955, Waynesville. Brevard, and Lee
Edwards and you have a man-sized schedule
in any league. It would be hard to pick out
any team on the list and say, with any as
surance, ‘We’ll beat this team.” The com
petition is so that it would be no great sur
prise to win or to lose to any of the Bun
combe county or Blue Ridge conference
teams.
Owen should be stronger than last year, but
so are all the other teams. We make no
promise for the season except that win or
lose they are still our team and we’re back
ing them all the way.
4-Black Mountain (NC) NEWS—Thursday, August 30, 195
News and Observer Editor Jona
than Daniels and Gov. Ilodges
crossed verbal swords at the con
vention over an editorial carried
in the N&O last week—but the
two are together in their all-out
love for Stevenson.
Nevertheless, the Raleigh morn
ing daily—which is at its best
when on a crusade—has been gent
ly, and sometimes not so gently,
chiding Gov. Hodges for his sup
port of the Pearsall Plan.
On Fridav morning. Aug. 10, the
N&O ran at the top of its editorial
page, just under the masthead,
these words:
“Just one year ago Gov. Hodges
said: ‘Abolition of the public
schools and their replacement to a
most uncertain extent by private
ones is a last-ditch and double
edged weapon. If that weapon is
ever used in North Carolina, its
result will be appalling in ignor
ance, poverty and bitterness’.”
We read it, but paid not toe
much attention to it. On Saturday
Aug. 11 the same thing came oul
again in the same space. Agair
on Sunday, Aug. 12.
And, as of last Sunday, Aug. 19
it had been running 10 days—
count ’em—without letup—like i
broken phonograph record. Unles
we miss our guess, that little iten
will be found on the editorial page
of N&O daily until voting time
on Sept. 8.
Nineteen years ago this past
July 1, Gov.' Clyde R. Hoey ap
pointed two men to the State Su
preme court. One, a native of
Halifax county, was 50 years of
age. He went on to become chief
justice. His name: M. V. Barn
hill.
The man succeeding him as chief
justice this week was the other ap- 1
pointee of July 1, 1937. He is J. *
Wallace Winborne, a native of 1
Chowan county, who began the 1
practice of law in Marion in 1907. u
Winborne is three years older than -
Barnhill, who served only two-and- d
a-half years as chief justice, Nei- e
ther has been in robust health £
during the past two years.
The average age of members of
the State Supreme court—with the j,
appointment of 67-year-old W. B. w
Rodman and the resignation of 69- a
year-old M. V. Barnhill—is now 63. j.
So, you young attorneys who p
look upon membership on the t
court as being little short of glory t
this side of paradise, remember
that the appointment—like many ■
another good thing—seldom comes
on the sunny side of 50.
It is interesting to note that As
sociate Justice E. B. Denny and
Associate Justice R. Hunt Barker
were born in 1892, while Justices
Jeff D. Johnson and W. H. Bob
bitt first saw the light of day in
1900, and Justices Carlisle Higgins
and W. B. Rodman were born in
1889. Chief Justice Winborn was
born in 1884.
New Attorney General George
Patton—who may be on his way
to the State Supreme, court—is 58
years of age. Harry McMullan
was only 53 when he became attor
ney general in 1938—five years
younger than Patton and 13 years
younger than was Rodman when
appointed.
You won’t get them to say any
thing about it for publication, bul
the State Supreme court justices
and officials of the attorney gen
eral’s staff are in desperate need
VI HOOI OlOlItV.
The attorne- general’s depart
ment, according to reports we get,
could do with a general reorgani
zation—with definite duties as
signed to the assistants—and more
assistants.
Our justices are overworked,
being forced to spend too much I
time in petty research. Informa
tion we get is that they would like t
to have six to eight young attor- 5
neys as research assistants. In
1957, it will be 20 years since we
turned the legislative microscope !

holier--n-thou people that does

less honest, and raises their chil
dren worser than a man who feeds
and clothes his family from the

And, as he became excited with
his talk, he placed one fist ovei

At this point, the chairman o
the board of deacons, sitting u

Boulos Maoushi, the patriarch of nearly a million Maronite
rhristians around the world, is a native Lebanese who spent more
than a decade of his life as a parish priest in the United States.
The tall grey-bearded prelate was appointed last year as
spiritual head of the ancient Oriental Catholic community by
Pone Pius XII. Although many Americans may not be aware
of the size of the Maronite sect in this country, the patriarch
estimates that there are 100,000 members now living in the United
^Patriarch Maoushi became well acquainted with these Amer
ican Maronites during his service as parish priest in New Bedford.
Mass., and Los Angeles. A man with a keen sense of humor and
strong moral courage, he came to this country in 1923 to study
conditions of the Maronite communities in the United States and
Mexico. „ . ...
“At the time I expected to stay on two years, he recollects,
but his tour of duty was extended to 1934. During this period,
almost all the Lebanese emigrants in America .knew young
Maoushi who devoted himself to community service. As a parish
priest in Los Angeles, he launched a fund-collecting campaign
to repay debts incurred by the local Maronite House and also
managed to build the city’s "Madonna of Lebanon’’ church.
“We had just completed oar new church and I thought at last
I could relax when I was called back to .Lebanon in 1934 to
become Bishop of Tyre,” the 61-year-old prelate recalls. He suc
ceeded Bishop Shukrallah Khouri, who died in the same year.
A man with a broad international background, the patriarch
was educated in Lebanon, Rome and Paris, and is the master of
seven languages. During his eleven years in United States, he
absorbed the values of freedom and democracy, plus the intrinsio
dignity of the individual, and today stands as a staunch supporter
of all these values.
