Your gueaa la Juat aa good aa mine, For inyaelf I would auy that If the champion and Joe were to meet in the ring thla week 1 would have no hoaltancy In picking the Cinderella man to win. Hut in the aeveral weeka elapuing before the two heavies atop into the ring?well, it may apell a different atory. * Right now jiraddock la in the peak of condition for the battle. And therein Ilea the dungor that Jim facea? that of going atale before he entera the ring And from all I hear from the Hraddock camp at Grand Beach, Mich., Jim realizea it. He tella the newapuper boya that he could atep lf> rounda right now without trouble? but two weeka hence?well, the big irlahman la going to take It euay and upend the rout of the time In aharpenlng hla upend and perfecting his timing. ?

And folka, ""believe, me, there will bo aoine crowd preaent in Chicago when theae boya claah. ? ? Now, to got round to aoftball There have been aome worthwhile guinea played In the Twilight league and ulao J in the Girl'a loop uluco luat iaauunce of thla column. I That hattle between the Ksao Iloya und Hilly Owena Hedfearn Motora waa u corker and the reault la atlll up In the air. Under the rulea of regular, baaebull, the fact that the alxth Inning waa not completed would Bend the acorebaek to the end of even Innlnga and the Motora were leading (5 to 4 Hut under the aoftball rulea thore la a difference and the altuatlon ao unuaual that the bureau of recreation haa requeated an Interpretation from the national rules committee. Off hand we would register the game aa a draw. Hut that la unofficial. Those Merchant's sure put up a scrappy battle, even If they do hold undisputed possession of the cellar championship. Their battle with the Wolves luat Friday waa uii epic with the reault in doubt until the llnal putout. ? "Huck" Smith was the target for a lot of cuaaing and cheering. Cussed by the folloxvora of the Merchant's team and cheered by the adherants of the Wolves' pack. 1 he ladies, well, they are playing a much improved brand of softball. And they Hiiro kicked over our apple buggy We had a hunch that a few Charley lipases and sore muscles would cure them of the desire to play, but hot dog, you should see them out there hobbling around, but grinning happily. Those Camden gala sure can take It. No folks. Gus Ileleos Is not going to open a 11 very stable. That horse that he Is showing in the window of his store is just a dummy. Yea, 1 know you knew it. but we-had to put a plug in a swell window display. One of the business men drifted in Saturday to inform us that our soft ball boys were taking their games too seriously. You're going to see a tight out there some (lay it you don't Mill) Ibis ribbing * No sir e e e old chap No lighten r- The boys are all wrapped up In tht n sport and the rootlnn does get rathei I- personal, but It's all In the fun ol f the game. ? ? ? The "masked marvel" has been and 1 gone. He essayed the task of tamlnK S the Cubs Monday evening and lasted i Just three Innings when the Pro man agement decided the team needed a chiropractic treatment land hollered ( for Doc Kunderburk to stem the rising tide of Cub runs. And lX>c did a right smart Job. , This lud Woolen who hurls for the Cubs Is the smillngest chap 1 have ever seen work on the diamond. No matter what happens, no matter how i 1 call 'em back of the plate, Wooten 1 always pours out that liquid grin. Nice lad eh what? The McDowell team In the girl's league is going to land u plum when Mary McLeod completes her vacation. Mury, If you do not know her, is tho little town of Camden inald who while playing with tho Charlotte-Thompson championship cage team lust season, did some sensational shooting in the title game and won it single-handed. Mary modestly declares she does not play much soft ball but is willing ] to do her best. And we'll venture to say that Mury will be there with bells on after she gets on to the hang of the game. i* * They may grouch about Stanley Babin as an umpire but we want to say that If all umpires called 'em as ' good as Htanley, they would all be assured of seats in the umpires heuveh. And tho same goes for Jack Nettles. That lad, Nolan, who worked In that sizzling battle between the Wolves and Merchants is another sweet lad on ballB and strikes. I , | What u swell pitching battle that was between Blackwell and Clarke In the girl's league game TTuesday. The [Camden maiden profited by her greater experience in holding the Zemp batters to a few lonely bingles, fielded her position faultlessly and hit the ball hard. Clarkle, making her debut in the league, showed she will be a big factor in keeping the Zemp team off the cellar floor. * I can remember a few years back when Clarkle had a basketball team In a cuge league I had up in Michigan and believe It or not^ I am certain that "team could trim any team of it's size in tho IJ. S. A. And Clarkle was the stur performer I'm here to tell the gang. So, knowing this little maiden as I do. I predict she will go places in softball She hits like a major leaguer and fields her position well. Her pitching will Improve rapidly. When the Blackwell midget hits the old pill, how the eagle screams. Her long drive into deep center netted her a home run Tuesday. * Now for a wee bit of Ixjglon baseball. The gang beat up the Hermitage Mills, f> to 4, Monday.and look like title caliber. Those boys from up Bethune way have the stuff that ball players are made out of. Anytime that you can find a gang of boys who will work In the field until noon, then walk several miles to get a ride to Camden, then practice until 7:30 and hitchhike hack home?well fellows, those hoys have what it to make real ball players. YoU folks up in B<? thune ought to be mighty proud or your lads. I he Legion Junior haseballers are going to have a new diamond with new bleachers and everything in I about a week. The season opens I next week. We'll all he out to swell the chorus of rooters. * I ion i be surprised if our boys cop the title honors. The team look's great right now.

Franc In de Bales Parish, Colum bla's junior parish, of which the K??v Thomas J. Mackln is pastor, is now completing Ih? seventeenth year ol its history. It was founded In mid hummer of 1920 by the Itev. !?uii , Jacquler of the Oblato Fathers of 8t > Kraut 1m de Hales, for which reason [ the church wan so named Fathel Jacquler built the temporary church and served for three years, until 1933, I when he was succeeded by the Itev. ; Martin C. Murphy, now pastor of St. Peter's and deair of the Columbia District. Father Murphy remained an pastor until 1904, when he succeeded the late Dean Nicholas A. Murphy us pastor of Ht, Peter's. Father Murphy's successor was the Rev. Daniel M. O'Brien, who remained until mid summer of 1936, when 111 health compelled his retirement. Father I. Edmund Durke of St. Patrick's church, Charleston, acted as administrator until October 1, 1936, when Fathert.Mackln, formerly pastor of St. Paul's church, Spartanburg was named pastor. < Ht. Francis de Salos church is located in that part of Columbia known as Shandon, within the city limits, and about three miles from the center of the city, the fumed State House. The church, a rebuilt K. of C. Wartime Recreation building at ('amp Jackson, Is located at f>16 Maple street. Ht. Francis de Sales purish is in the line of growth of Columbia, and is In a section of the city which is experiencing a phenomenal growth of homes and stores. At this time within the limits of the parish fully 125 now buildings, mostly stores, are being erected; it Is probuble that the parish will witness more new homes built within its confines than any other palish In South Carolina, thus giving an assurance of its future. One of the greatest projects anticipated in Shandon is the erection of a now church, which Is covered In an urticle elsewhere in this issue Father Mackln, St. Francis de Sales parish's pastor, is one of the most able, zealous and beloved pastors in the Southeast. Horn in Cathedruj purish. Chicago, Father Mackln was educated at Mt. Carmel Parochial school, St a Vincent's Catholic high school, Wvanston academy, prep school of Northwestern university, the University of .Notre Dame and the College of Science at the Catholic university of America, Washington, I) C. At Notre Dame Father Mackln lived In the same hall with the Very Rev. John F. O'liara, C. S. C., then a student, now president, and the late famed Knute Rockne. In 1913, he entered St. Mary's Seminary, Baltimore, received all minor orders at the hands of the late Bishop Thomas Shahan, rector of the Catholic University, and was ordained to the priesthood in May, 1918, As a luy student at the Catholic University, Father Mackln became acquainted with Monslgnor William T. Russell, as a member of the Good Shepherd's League at St Patrick's, Washington, where Bishop Russell was then pastor. When Bishop Russell was appointed to Charleston, he Invited Father Mackln, who had started his studies for the priesthood, to the Charleston Diocese, and as a result Father Mackln was ordained for the Diocese or Charleston. Father Mackin came to Charleston after his ordination, was curate at the Cathedral, secretary to Bishop Russell during the war, and at the same time acted as first pastor of Our Lady of RanBom church, Georgetown, chaplain at the Marine Barracks at Parris Island, attended St. Peter's at Beaufort and St. Mary's at Yonge's Island, and was emergency chaplain at various camps throughout the Diocese. In October, 1919, Bishop Russell appointed Father Mackln the first resi-? dent pastor of the Anderson missions, with 7.000 square miles of territory. Having no house in which to live, he had a room with a Methodist family and dined with a Presbyterian family, who showed him every kindness and consideration. He established regular services for the Catholic Cndets at Clemson College, and did fine work in repairing church properties and In cleaning and planting them through his mission territory, which was almost as large as Massachusetts. Bishop Russell then insisted that Father Mackln have a house of ills own in which to live, and appointed him pastor at Orangeburg and its square miles of mission territory, including Blackville, Barnwell, Bamberg. Springfield and other cities of size, thirteen missions and stations among them Here he repeated his work at Anderson, remaining until October, 1932. when he was named pastor of Ht. Mary's of Perpetual Succour at Camden ami its missions, ineluding the venerkble old St. Peter's church. He landscaped and otherwise developed the Camden property in such a way that It became one of the most beautiful places In that beautiful resort, developing also a fine current of distinguished Catholic visitors from the north. In October. 1926, Father Mackln I was appointed pastor of St. Paul's 1 church, Spartanburg, with its missions. including Gaffney and Union, repenting here his work of beautifying In his previous parishes. Here he remained until appointed to St Fran els de Sales, where he immediately applied himself to plans for the erec , tion of the church, thus carrying ou1 1 a program Father Murphy had close to his heart as pnstor when the de presslon intervened. Father Mackin's efforts to beautify the church properties with which he has been connected is characteristic of him. for he Is ever striving to re veal the beauty of Catholic teaching liturgy, history and other phases ol the church He is credited by so dis tinguished an authority as Monsignoi Gwynn as being a liturgical special 1st; he hns depended the interest o many priests of the Diocese to the re turn to the ancient and medieval vest meats, traditionally Catholic churci ornaments, correct church music an( accurate ceremonial. In all his parishes. Father Mackli has placed emphasis on the qualitj of the ( atholicity of his congrega tlons, and has Impressed upon hii parishioners the necessity of sacrlflc* I in order to develop It * He abhori spineless ( atholics, and his -^very ef * fort Is bent toward making his parishioners proud of their faith. Father Mackin has served in every part of the Diocese of Charleston, from the coastal plain to the mountains, and it is probable that no priest in the Diocese knows the state and its people better. He has thousands of friends among Catholics and nonCatholics alike throughout the state, and his transfer to larger fields has always been a source of regret to the parishioners and friends^he left behind. Father Mat-kin's parishes have of their Catholic faith, and St. Francis de Sales parish in Shandon under his zealous direction possesses these virtues in an eminent degree. Tentative plans are being considered right now of the needed new St. Francis de Sales church, at Columbia. The parish desires to have the new church known for its perfect embodying of all that goes to make a thoroughly Catholic house of worship. Its excellence will not be most evident in its size nor in the cash outlay, but rather in its perfection of design and in the fineness of all that will comprise it* appointments. It is hoped to have it thoroughly modern in its ministration to physical comforts in the way of seating, lighting, heating and cooling. The traditional forms will be employed in architecture and the appointments and ornaments will all be in accord with the architecture. The nave will be marked off from j the choir, which in turn will be well set apart from the sanctuary. It is hoped that the time may come when the proper male liturgical choir will occupy the choir stalls, but there will i be a gallery set to one side from the . choir wherein the mixed choir will , be located; both choir spaces so lo. cated that one pipe organ will serve , both choirs. The architect to be chosen will not > be as a result of any competition al. though in all probability several ar; chitects will be asked to present their i suggestions. Already several have . sketched interior and exterior plans. No plan will be accepted until it has r had the approval of a reference board, t the members of which are teachers of , architecture in schools located var' iouHly about the country. , As far as possible the ornaments t and appointments will be made by . hand. As far as possible Southern r products will be used, and as far as . posstble Southern and especially local I labor and contractors will be favored. Two great priest builders will be - asked to serve in an advisory capaci ity, Msgr A, K. Gwynn, of Greenville, ? S. C? and Msgr. Charles Dubois Wood. now of Middletown, New York, but l until his resignation some time back f a priest of the diocese. Both of these prelates have had wide experience in 3 the building of the many churches a to their constructive credit. They # have promised their aid to the pastor - Father Mackin ?Catholic Bulletin.

J., blotted Germany's proud pioneering record in development of llghter-thun-alr craft, a record ih&t had been free of peace time dlaaater uiuce 1913. In thoHo 24 yeara, while the United States, England, France and Italy felt the blight of dirigible trugediea, Germany? Zeppelin? rode to uky conquest?, with the durable Graf Zeppelin and the Hlndeburg blazing the trail?. The Graf still is in service between Germany and South America on fortnightly, trips, after eight years of flying that covered more than 1,000,000 miles, included a round-the-world trip und 139 Trans-Atlantic voyages prior to January, 1937.1 The Hindenburg made ten round trips between Germany and Lakehurst last year and the flight that ended in catastrophe yesterday was the first of eighteen scheduled this summer. The United States' experiments with dirigibles have cost nearly 200 lives and millions of dollars. Most costly of American disasters was the wreck of the giant Akron, which plunged into the ocean off Barnegat, N. J., at midnight, April 4, 1933. Two years later, on February 12, 1935, the Akron's $5,000,000 sister ship, the Macon, was lost. Two other disasters marked the early history of American dirigibles. A storm ripped apart the $2,000,000 Shenandoah near Caldwell, Ohio, on September 4, 1925, and the Roma bought from Italy by the Navy department was wrecked by a broken rudder cable over Hampton Roads, Va., on February 22, 1932. In addition to thlB wreck, England had one of the worst of the dirigible ragodies in the loss of the R-101, then the largest craft of its kind in the .vorld, which wrecked in France while on a trial run to India. France had its disaster v December 21, 1923, in the destruction of the Dixmude off the coast of Sicily. Italy, besides building the ill-fated Roma, saw its own Italia the victim of a wreck within the Arctic circle in May, .1928.
