x Homework (continued from page 1) football coach Ted Jackson's re- quest to take the team to Johnstown the third weekend in September to play Bishop McCord High School's: AA team. McCord invited the Mountaineers to play their team and agreed to pay $1000 for transportation, to house the players and their coaches and pro- vide all but one meal, which will be paid for by the Dallas District. The Saddle ride will benefit St. Jude's Hospital St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital announced that Borrow- dale Acres Inc. in Dallas, will be conducting a Saddle-Up for St. Jude trail ride on May 18; with a rain date of May 25. Locally, Ms. Carol Mallig has volunteered to coordinate the program. St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, located in Memphis, Tennessee, was founded by enter- zainer, Danny Thomas. The insti- Wition. opened its doors to the public in 1962 to combat catastrophic diseases in children. St. Jude is non-sectarian, non-discriminatory and has provided total medical care to over 11,000 patients. At St. Jude, scientists and phy- sicians work side-by-side seeking not only better means of treat- ment, butalso the cause, cure and prevention of these terrible killers. All information gained at St. Jude is shared freely with other hospi- tals and institutions the world over. The funds raised in the Saddle- Up for St. Jude Program will help to ensure that children with can- cer and other life-threatening dis- eases will have a better chance to live. Dallas Gridiron Club will pay $275 toward the cost of the bus. The team and coaches will leave Friday morning and return home Saturday afternoon. They will spend Friday night with members of the McCord High School team. In other business, board mem- bers expressed concern about four change orders Pasonick Engineers listed for the new maintenance building. Solicitor Ben Jones ex- plained that since the changes were approved by someone in the district, it was advisable that the board approve the changes. “Re- fusal to pay for them since the work is done could become difficult and and could end in litigation,” Jones advised. The board voted 5- 2 to approve the changes. Board members James Richardson voted no on four of the change orders and board member Thomas Stitzer voted no on three of the change orders and abstained from the fourth. Richardson reported that the cafeteria loss for the month of April was $1,141.34 and a total loss of $18,296.07 for the year to date. “Despiteoperatingataloss, itis coordinator. Scouts earn Parvuli Dei Emblem The Parvuli Dei (Children of God) Emblem is given in special recognition by the Catholic Church to a Cub or Webelos Scout for advancement in religious knowledge and spiritual growth. The purpose of the program is to help young boys explore a wide range of activities in order to discover the presence of God in their daily lives as members of their family and parish, and also to develop a good positive self-image through the contributions they can make to the group or community. The presentation of the emblem is made through the authority of the Bishop, the Dioce- san Scout chaplain or his delegate. The emblem is a medal depicting the Holy Family and is sus- pended from a bar pin bearing the inscription Parvuli Dei. The Boy Scouts of America has authorized it to be worn on the Cub Scout uniforms. Any boy who has completed second grade can work for the Parvuli Dei if he is a registered Cub Scout of Catholic faith. The following boys from Packs 232, 241 and 281 who have received their emblem: Row 1, from left, Michael Senausky, B.J.
