The Church..For a Fuller Life..For You..
When we become mired in the routine of life, one day is like any
other. This was just another working-day for most of the people in
Jerusalem.
Three men died on Calvary Hill. One of them was the Galilean!
Business as usual in Jerusalem. Unless we understand the whole
significance of what is happening we pay little attention . . .
Do you understand what happened that Friday? Do you realize
WHO hung on that central Cross? Do you know WHY He died? And
FOR WHOM?
There is nothing more necessary in our lives than the deep, personal
knowledge of what happened that Friday ... and the Sunday following.
Come to Church!

some concern about it to team
mate Dave Johnson after he had
taken a few cuts in the batting
cage.
“Looks like I’m swinging the
bat all right?” Aaron whispered
to Johnson.
“Yes, kid, you looked okay,”
Johnson replied.
“I look nervous?” Aaron asked.
“Yep,” Johnson replied.
Another record?
ATLANTA <A>) — When Atlan
ta Braves’ slugger Henry Aaron
cracks the all-time home run rec
ord, he might also set another
mark—the number of telegrams
he receives.
“We believe the baseball fans
of America could set an all-time
record for messages sent to an
individual,” says E. O. Harbour,
district manager of Western Un
ion in Atlanta.
According to Western Union
records, evangelist Billy Graham
received approximately 100,000
telegrams in 1962 urging him to
endorse a particular political can
didate.
Anticipating the landslide of
messages for Aaron, Western Un
ion has agreed to set a flat rate
of $2 each, with $1 going directly
to the Hank Aaron Scholarship
Fund. In turn, Aaron has pledged
that half of each dollar donated
will be diverted to the Babe Ruth
Foundation in Baltimore.
“It’s a load off my back,” said
the Atlanta Braves' slugger after
tying baseball’s most revered
record by slamming his 714th
home run in his first at-bat of
1974.
Concealing the pressure of his
long chase of Ruth’s record,
Aaron said he’ll show more
emotion when he claims the
record-breaking 715th homer.
“I’ll probably run around the
bases backward,” said the re
served superstar.
Mrs. Ruth wished Aaron “luck
and health” in his attempt to
break the mark and continue on
ward.
Asked about their playing
styles, Mrs. Ruth would not com
pare the two formidable hitters/
“Babe was a pitcher as well
as an outfielder, remember,” said
Mrs. Ruth. “He was a great all-
around player. And, really, he
never thought so much of his
home run record.”

Pitcher laments
WASHINGTON tff) — Hank
Aaron’s 714th home run was for
mally recognized in the U.S. Sen
ate Thursday with a resolution
of congratulations.
In the House, the announce
ment was greeted by a standing
ovation.
The Senate resolution was
sponsored by Sen. Hubert H.
Humphrey, Minn., who said he is
a fan “who loves baseball night
and day.”
Mrs. Ruth pleased
NEW YORK <A>>—Like many
other baseball fans, Mrs. Babe
Ruth wasn’t surprised Thursday
that Hank Aaron hit his 714th
home run.
“I’ve expected it for a long
time,” said Mrs. Ruth after the
Atlanta star tied her husband’s
famous baseball record. “It came
as no shock.”
CINCINNATI (A*)—“Tying the
record is great, but breaking it is
another thing” Hank Aaron
said Thursday after the 40-
year-old Atlanta Braves slugger
joined the immortal Babe Ruth as
baseball’s all-time home run king.
The soft-spoken Mobile, Ala.,
native talked of the initial ex
citement, but said it was dulled
considerably when the Reds stag
ed a comeback for a 7-6 victory
after trailing at one point 6-1.
“It’s just another home run
now,” Aaron said. “If we had
won, I’d probably be over there
in our clubhouse drinking cham
pagne.”
The game was halted for six
minutes as Vice President Ger
ald R. Ford and baseball Com
missioner Bowie Kuhn congratu
lated Aaron on the field to the
cheers of the overflow crowd of
52,154.
CINCINNATI <A>)_ “It was
my mistake and he hits mis
takes,” Jack Billingham said of
the historic 714th home run Hank
Aaron hammered Thursday to tie
Babe Ruth’s all-time record.
The 31year-old right-handed
ace of the Cincinnati Reds said
the Atlanta slugger ripped an
outside fast ball for his three-
run, first-inning blast in the
Riverfront Stadium opener.
“I threw the ball and it didn’t
sink. It came into him over the
outside of the plate,” said Billing
ham.
“He deserves it,” Billingham
continued. “He’s the greatest I’ve
ever seen. It’s unfortunate he
hit it against me.”
