The WBA took away Clay's title April 28, when he refused to be inducted at Houston, Tex. The lighter faces trial in Houston June 19. Covington produced a copy of a letter from a member of the WBA executive committee which supports Clay's position. "Cassius can't find anybody to fight him so he can make any money," Covington said, adding that he blamed the WBA's action for this. Rodrigo C. Sanchez of Panama, who was unable to attend the hearing complained in a leter to WBA president M. Robert Evans that the and at least three other committee members were not consulted before action was taken against Clay. Sanchez said he was unable to find a provision in the WBA bylaws authorizing us to forfeit a title from a boxer because of a po litical, racial or religious problem."

William Smith, pastor. MY WEEKLY SERMON By REV. BLAIR T. HUNT, PASTOR, MISSISSIPPI BLVD. CHRISTIAN CHURCH MEMPHIS, TENN. For a number of years our churches have been observing Mothers bay A beautiful custom A blessing to the Mothers and their children. But isn't it time to think of "Daddy" and have a Father's Day, Too? And so we, do, Sunday. Here is a poem to the Day, Author unknown: He was a great Daddy, a real Father. But too many Fathers are too busy with other things, they have no time for their children. Don't be too busy and leave the children to your wife. Father has a responsibility too. Every Father should realize the great obligations resting upon him in the training of the immortal Soul that has been given unto his keeping. The Soul of his child is of more value than all else in this world. Man has built the pyramids, The Parthenon, man has tunneled the Alps, he has dug the Panama Canal he has built great cities. Man has played his part in making the desert to blossom as the rose; he has caused to be produced the finest cattle and swine, but what about his son? An acquaintance told of attending a fair; a large group of people were gathered about a Blue Ribboned Hog. The hog was everything and one could wish a hog to be. His hair was nicely combed. His hoofs were well manicured. "Surely he who raised that hog knew his hog-raising business," said one onlooker. Attending the hog was a dirty, hatchet face, chest sunken, barefoot lad, smoki ing a picked up cigarette butt. The father of this ragged boy and the owner of the Blue Ribbon hog was the same man. In the hog business the father was a whale of success. In the boy business he was a whale of a failure. We wonder about our boys, we worry about our boys lay the blame at Dadys feet nine cases out of ten, Daddy is to blame. The Fatherhood among men is but a reflection of the Fatherhood of God, God our Heavenly Father gives good gifts to his sons and daughters. He so loved that he spilled His life-blood and gave His all for us. Father give to your children time your influence, your money your all if it need be God will Bless you and that right early.

House Approves Bill To Remove Silver Backing from Currency The House passed and sent to the White House Monday legislation to remove silver backing from all U. S. paper, currency after a one year period. The vote was 234 to 109. The measure is designed to ease the sliver shortage by giving holders of silver certificates, a one year time period to turn in the certificates for silver, if they so desire. The treasury now is holding about 426 million ounces of silver as backing for the more than $550 million in silver certificates. Once the one year period is up the treasury will be able to add try.
