In a recent religious weekly<br />
there was a delightful story<br />
about a Sunday school class,<br />
the members <strong>of</strong> which were<br />
asked to draw pictures <strong>of</strong> Bible<br />
characters or events <strong>of</strong> Interest<br />
to them. As might be expected,<br />
one drew the ark, one the<br />
rainbow, one David and<br />
Goliath....but the teacher was<br />
puzzled by one child who<br />
worked very long and very<br />
carefully on something not<br />
immediately clear to the<br />
teacher. When she asked what<br />
he was drawing, the child<br />
replied that it was a picture <strong>of</strong><br />
God. "But Johnny," the teacher<br />
protested, "no one knows what<br />
God looks like." Tbe child<br />
immediately answered, "They<br />
will...when I am finished!"<br />

CIT Financial Services will<br />

The new award, introduced<br />
by CIT to recognize playing<br />

started with the cooperation <strong>of</strong><br />
Coach Ed Woolley. The coach<br />
or the winner's teammates will<br />

will receive a specially cast<br />
commemorative belt buckle<br />

holy lite certainly has as one <strong>of</strong><br />
its aims that <strong>of</strong> showing others<br />
what God to like. Ibis was one<br />
reason why Jesus <strong>of</strong> Nazareth<br />
made such an impression on<br />
His contemporaries: they<br />
seemed to see in Him what God<br />
was like. Should not our own<br />
lives each be like this?<br />
Perhaps, indeed, another story<br />
wlllhdp. It isone which I beard<br />
many years ago, but which I<br />
love.<br />
There wasonce a monk<strong>of</strong> the<br />
order <strong>of</strong> the little Brothers,<br />
who felt strongly that it was his<br />
vocation to go preach<br />
Christianity to the Arabs. So<br />
much did he Insist that finally<br />
the superior <strong>of</strong> the order bade<br />
him Godspeed and aent him-<strong>of</strong>f<br />
to do that work.<br />
Many years went by and<br />
nothing was heard from the<br />
little Brother. The superior<br />
determlnedt<strong>of</strong>lndout what had<br />
become <strong>of</strong> him, and went to the<br />
large city in the Near East<br />
where he was to have taken up<br />
his residence. Surprisingly,<br />
everyone in the bazaar knew <strong>of</strong><br />
the aging monk. The superior<br />
was impressed, and asked<br />
whether the Little Brother had<br />
instructed them from the New<br />
Testament They replied that,<br />
instead, he had instructed them<br />
from the Koran, which they<br />
appreciated since it was a book<br />
that they all knew and un-<br />
derstood. "But," said the<br />
superior, "are any <strong>of</strong> you then<br />
Christians?" "We are aU<br />
Christians," came the reply.<br />
"PYom the Koran?" inquired<br />
the confused superior.<br />
"We could not find your<br />
Christ in your Bible," replied<br />
one <strong>of</strong> the converts, "but we<br />
found Christ In the Little<br />
Brother 1"<br />

Prime Tittie<br />
Enriching Our Lives By Shunning Retirement<br />
by Cy Brickfield<br />
While I have been living in<br />
Washington since the. early.<br />
1950s, I grew<br />
up in (and am<br />
still a . devoted<br />
reader <strong>of</strong> the<br />
newspapers <strong>of</strong>)<br />
New York<br />
where, even if<br />
you don't read the Daily News<br />
regularly, you frequently find<br />
yourself leafing through its pages<br />
in search <strong>of</strong> one <strong>of</strong> the city's<br />
most enduring and beloved in-<br />
stitutions—the "Inquiring Foto-<br />
grapher" column.<br />
A fascinating sounding board<br />
for the voices <strong>of</strong> people who<br />
would probably not otherwise<br />
express their opinions in public,<br />
the column epitomizes the "man<br />
in the street" interview at its<br />
basic best.<br />
Each day's column poses a<br />
question—sometimes relating to<br />
a current news event, but more<br />
<strong>of</strong>ten stemming from an in-<br />
satiable curiosity about human<br />
nature. Then comes the answers<br />
and thumbnail photos <strong>of</strong> at least<br />
a half dozen people in all walks<br />
<strong>of</strong> life who are stopped and<br />
questioned as they go about the<br />
city on their usual pursuits.<br />
During years <strong>of</strong> perusing the<br />
interview. I gave little thought to<br />
the person behind the questions<br />
until I read in The New York<br />
Tiinex this summer that the origi-<br />
nal "Inquiring Folographer" had<br />
just died at age 85.<br />
His name was Jimmy Jemail<br />
and, according to his obituary,<br />
he started the column in 1921<br />
and "by the time he retired in<br />
1473, he had interviewed and<br />
photographed presidents [among<br />
them Harry S. Truman and John<br />
F. Kennedy, a longtime fan <strong>of</strong><br />
the column], prime ministers<br />
and royalty as well as many in<br />
more ordinary walks <strong>of</strong> life."<br />
That's the point at which I<br />
stopped reading and started cal-<br />
culating. If he was 85 when he<br />
died, and had retired in 1973—<br />
which was five years ago—he<br />
must have been 80 when he re-<br />
tired.<br />
Fantastic! My day was im-<br />
mediately made by the thought<br />
<strong>of</strong> this marvelously inquisitive<br />
man hanging in there long after<br />
most have slipped or been<br />
pushed into retirement. Not only<br />
was his own life presumably<br />
much fuller during those years<br />
<strong>of</strong> doing the work he loved—and<br />
which he did so well—but he en-<br />
riched our lives with. 15 yean<br />
<strong>of</strong> "Inquiring Fotograpner"<br />
columns we never would have<br />
had if he had retired at 65.<br />
Jimmy Jemail isn't the only<br />
creative person who succeeded in<br />
enriching our lives by shunning<br />
retirement. For instance, there's<br />
Ansel Adams, the 76-year-old<br />
master photographer who, ac-<br />
cording to The Wall Street<br />
Journal, "is today enjoying al-<br />
most unparallelled artistic popu-<br />
larity as well as critical and<br />
financial success."<br />
So important has Adams'<br />
work become during the past ten<br />
years that The Journal recently<br />
devoted a front-page story to<br />
him—a form <strong>of</strong> recognition usu-<br />
ally reserved for financial and<br />
political luminaries. Yet, if Ansel<br />
Adams had retired at 65, it is<br />
' doubtful his work would be re-<br />
ceiving the vast appreciation it b<br />
achieving today for it was only<br />
when he was 63 that it began to<br />
sell well enough fur him to be<br />
able to give up commercial as-<br />
signments and concentrate solely<br />
on the creative nature scenes for<br />
which he is being acclaimed.<br />
Then, there's George Burns<br />
who has been performing pr<strong>of</strong>es-<br />
sionally in just about every<br />
branch <strong>of</strong> show business for<br />
more yean than I—and. Ton<br />
willing to bet, many <strong>of</strong> you—<br />
have even been alive.<br />
As a singer, George Burns is<br />
a great comedian. As a comed-<br />
ian, however, George Burns is a<br />
national treasure — and one<br />
which cultural conservationists<br />
have, fortunately, not allowed Q<br />
to go to waste, nor to be nostal-<br />
gically worshipped solely on the<br />
basis <strong>of</strong> past accomplishments.<br />
Instead, the older Burns grows,<br />
the more ageless he and his<br />
comedy seem to be becoming.<br />
Known to several generations<br />
and millions <strong>of</strong> admirers for the<br />
radio, film and television com-<br />
edies in which he starred with<br />
his wife, Gracie Allen, and for<br />
his own work as a single after<br />
her retirement and subsequent<br />
death, Burns embarked upon the<br />
newest phase <strong>of</strong> hh long, multi-<br />
faceted career only three yean<br />
ago in 1975. When his best<br />
friend. Jack Benny, died, Burns<br />
stepped into his role in the film<br />
version <strong>of</strong> Neil Simon's The Sun-<br />
shine Boys, and won an Acad-<br />
emy Award fqr his portrayal <strong>of</strong><br />
an aged, retired vaudeville star.<br />
Having followed this with the<br />
title role in Oh. Oodt. his latest<br />
film is the youth culture epic,<br />
Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts<br />
Club Band. Thus, at 82, George<br />
Bums continues to carry a<br />
heavier workload than many<br />
performers half—or even a third<br />
—his age, and has no intention<br />
<strong>of</strong> depriving us <strong>of</strong> the pleasure<br />
<strong>of</strong> his comedy.<br />
"Retire? That's ridiculous."<br />
he declares. "What does it for<br />
you is to have something to get<br />
up for in the rooming. .Now,<br />
they say. you should retire at 70.<br />
When I was 70. I still had<br />
pimple*."<br />

Oops, missed a detdUne last<br />
week and the hackers making<br />
news weren't too happy about<br />
it. Anyhow, would you believe<br />
two holes-iihone on the tame<br />
day at the ant hill?<br />
Last Wednesday in •<br />
"""Mff^frr %««+*» to th* ia>34<br />
Community Association<br />
tournament, Win Arbuckle<br />
aced the first hole <strong>of</strong> a sudden-<br />
death play-<strong>of</strong>f and took tow<br />
gross honors, ft was one <strong>of</strong> the<br />
few times than Ges BrudencO,<br />
the victim, was left speechless.<br />
Later the same day, Charles<br />
Bannon, a freshman duffer,<br />
took only one stroke with a five<br />
iron on the US-yard nth bole.<br />
His sons, Joexand Jimmy, were<br />
Impressed, but Dave Harding,<br />
fourth member <strong>of</strong> the group,<br />
still checked in with the lowest<br />
score.<br />
Earlier last week, George<br />
Doerr took a six iron and got<br />
down in one on the ISO-yard 7th<br />
hole. George Cleaver and<br />
Harry Hitter saw this one and<br />
admitted they were out <strong>of</strong> their<br />
class for the day.<br />
All Mary Leypoldt needed<br />
was a little competition as she<br />
turned in a 49 last week during<br />
the tournament play and moved<br />
into fifth place on the ladies'<br />
