Community Basketball League.
The curtain rose last Saturday night on the Back Mountain Church-
Eight games were played Saturday and Monday on the three floors
—Dallas Township, Kingston Township and Lehman Township—and
in these eight games the caliber of play showed vast improvement over
last season. This means a close race for the pennant for with an
eighteen game schedule each team really has to play to stay in the
upper brackets.

Last year’s two top teams, Dal-
las Methodist and St. Paul's, are
figured high in the listings again
this season, but with plenty of
competition from St, Therese’s and
Huntsville Christian,
Shavertown Methodist and
Prince of Peace, both potentially
hot teams, are unknown quantities
as this is their first season; with
Lehman, Mt. Zion, and Trucksville
Methodist strengthened it will be
a tough grind for any team to turn
out a consistent winner.
Both Huntsville Christian and
Dallas Methodist, top rated quin-
tets, had all they could handle to
turn back Lehman and Kunkle at
Dallas Township gym Saturday
night, Bob Price with 10 points
paced Huntsville 28-22 over Leh-
man, while in Dallas Methodist’s
25-21 triumph over Kunkle, Char-
lie ‘Brobst’s 9 points were high.
St. Therese’s started in top form
and knocked off Shavertown Meth-
odist 43-31 on the Kingston Town-
ship floor, Bill Hart with 24 and
Bob Oney with 14 dominated the
scoring, After taking an 8-3 first
quarter lead, Trucksville Methodist
lost steam and was pounded to the
tune of 32-11 by St. Paul's Luther-
an. Art Kitchen with 11 and Tex
Wilson with 9 were high men. The
third game, between Mt. Zion and
Prince of Peace was a tragi-com-
edy as it turned out that after the
scores were checked Mt. Zion's ap-
parent 21-20 scoreboard victory
was questioned by both team’s
scorers, The net result was a 20-20
tie, which will probably have to be
replayed.
In the first upset of the current
season, a fighting Kunkle team
downed the favored St. Paul's five
50-45 in an overtime period, Mon-
day night at Lehman. The score
stood 45 all at the end of the reg-
ular game. Jim Knecht, Kunkle's
high-scoring center, connected for
26 points to make a season’s high
in individual scoring. Art Kitchen
with 12 and Don Boline with 11
were tops for St. Paul's, Mt. Zion
gave Lehman a healthy scare be-
fore bowing 39-36 in the second
game. Kleban and Stolarick with
17 and 16 points paced Lehman
as Paul Kunkle, lanky blond cen-
ter, hit for 11 for Mt, Zion.
Dallas Methodist scored a run-
away 67-28 victory: over Trucks-
ville Methodist in the final con-
test. Charles Brobst, Ralph Temp-
lin, Bob Moore and Steve Sedler
all hit double figures for Dallas
with Brobst high with 21, Dick
Harrison was tops for Trucksville
with 9.

diagnosis in his review of Morris
Rafael Cohen’s autobiography, “A
Dreamer’s Journey”. “For this is
the life of a thinker,” says Frank-
furter, “Barring minor excursions
into the world of affairs, Morris
Cohen analysis in this book the
influence that shaped his think-
ing, not about the problems and
penaceas of the day, but concern-
mening the ultimate inquiries how
men think about them. In short,
he was a philosopher, conceiving
philosophy as “simply stubborn
thinking about problems in _ all
fields of life’s endeavor—thinking
which refuses to accept as final
the common limitations at which
creatures of habit stop thinking”.
He identified philosophy with ‘nat-
ural curiosity or wonder about na-
ture of the world, things, life,
knowledge, art, religion and mor-
ality as perennial problems,” turn-
ing that curiosity in upon himself
and proving that the adventures
of the mind can be as exciting as
the deeds of soldiers and states-
men”.
