Scots Frown On Royalty's Sunday Acts ' By DeWITT MacKENZIE AP Foreign Affairs Analyst From the sturdy land of high lands and purple heather, where folk r-r-roll their r's and r-r-re-member the Sabbath, comes word that the Scottish Association of the Lord's Day Observance Society has sent Prime Minister Attlce a telegram recording in part: "We feel constrained to ex press our profound regret that the itinerary arranged for their royal highnesses, Princess Eliza beth and the Duke of Edinburgh (Prince Philip), while on their official visit to Paris, included at tendance at racing, theatre and night club dancing during the Lord's Day." "Too strong mustard? Well whether we agree with this re buke, or feel that it's a wee bit austere, there are many people who will find it encouraging to encounter such a staunch stand for religion, especially in the face of the world-wide Communist drive to deprive humanity of a God. Of course, probably nobody claims that the charming lady, who one day likely will be queen, and her husband committed any terrible sin by their activities on Sunday. However, members of the royal family do have a mighty influence von the habits of the rank and 'file, and must expect criticism at times. For royalty isn't immune from the afflictions of ordinary man, as witness that Princess Margaret Rose, sister of the heiress presumptive to the throne, is suffering with measles. Scots Deeply Religious The Scots as a whole are in tensely religious, as I have ob served during many visits to the land of my paternal ancestors. The Sabbath is a day for worship and contemplation. Scots who be lieve in the old time religion have no place for sports or rec reation on Sunday. Why, the average Scot won't indulge in golf on Sunday, though he loves the game so much that he uses a golf club for a cane so that he always will be ready for play. Many even frown on whistling as too frivolous. I used to fish for trout in Scot land, and one of the first rules I ran up against was that there was no fishing on the Sabbath. I recall one Cambridge student who sneaked out on a Sunday and did a bit of fishing. He was ostracized by all the guides at his headquarters until he finally ploy shoes it's GOLDIE'S BOOTERIE, Roseburg's oldest exclusive shoe store. Hope we have time for a more leisurely shopping tour of the town -,next week. (Pd. Adv.) . 440 N. Jackson Third Party Candidate Joins r v fcV3 begged forgiveness and promised never to ao it again. But that religious austerity isn't confined to Scotland. You find the same things in parts of Eng land. And we don't have to go so far afield as the British Isles to find religious zeal. There's plenty of it right here in the United States throughout most of the world, for that matter1. Even those who aren't intensely re ligious believe in the Supreme Being and the hereafter. Pilot Blamed in Crash That Killed Gov. Snell WASHINGTON, May 20 UP) The Civil Aeronautics Board said today an air crash in which Gov. Earl Snell of Oregon was killed last Oct. 28 probably resulted from the pilot's inability to fly "blind." The CAB said its inquiry show ed the small plane, en route from Klamath Falls to Adel, Ore., flew into a heavy rain which limited visibility. The pilot, Clif ford W. Hoague, lacked "training and experience required to safely control the airplane without ref erence to the ground," the board said. All four persons aboard the plane were killed, including Konert s. rarreii, uregon secre tary of state, and Marshall E. Cornett, president of the state senate. The pilot had flown 5,900 hours. His record showed five previous accidents and two penalties for violating rules. Annual Baby Contest' J- ; at Clark's Studio " r Ends May 29th ;; Enter Your Baby Now! " ; .
