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 />

Hie living <strong>of</strong> a religious and<br />

Finance company<br />

to honor players<br />

CIT Financial Services will<br />

present an outstanding player<br />

award to a member <strong>of</strong> the<br />

<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> High School football<br />

team for each game during the<br />

coming season.<br />

The new award, introduced<br />

by CIT to recognize playing<br />

skill and team spirit, haa been<br />

started with the cooperation <strong>of</strong><br />

Coach Ed Woolley. The coach<br />

or the winner's teammates will<br />

select each week's winner, who<br />

will receive a specially cast<br />

commemorative belt buckle<br />

and certificate. In addition,<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 />
