I The case of the Dr. Fickert, I
the medic who oh,oases not to cam- I
ply with the military requirement t
that he serve the armed forces,
betngs to mind the fact that this
great derhocracy was founded by
pilgrim fathers who came to this
country in order that they might
enjoy religious freedom.
Personally we do not ondone
draft evasion or any other deliber-
Qte act to avoid service to our
eountry in time of need. But we
€1o respect those religious devotees
who have thecourage of their
0nvicti0ns and refuse because of
these convictions to indulge the
un,Christian practice of taking
part in the deliberate destruction
f the nations of the world, and
we believe that once their sincer-
ity iS established, it should be res-
pected because this is a democ-
racy, and such are the ideals we
are seeking to maintain.
.... Far better, we would feel, to
make exceptions of the individuls
who through financial or other
connections, seek to evade their
responsibility with no ideal great-
er than that of preserving their
own skin at the cost of others.

,when the Indians came out and
started racking up the scores and

ed playing a fast bangame and
by the time the Portals five got
,to the end of the court the ln-
dians had" already made the bas-
ket, and the third quarter ended
with a score of 43-27 with the
[ndians out in the lead again.
In the fourth quarter the

team and the game ended with
a score of 45-50 to make a glor-
ious victory for the Indians with
