SUNDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1958 HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE 7 A Science, Religion Similar In Approach To Truth By LOUIS CASSTCI.S United Press International Science and religion are "re markably similar" in their ap proach to truth. That is the conclusion ot Dr. William G. Pollard, one of the few men in the world who quali fies as a professional in both fields. Pollard is a distinguished atom ic Dhvsicist who serves, on week days, as executive director of the Institute of Nuclear Studies at Oak Ridge, Tenn. Since 1954 he has also been an ordained Epis coDal minister, serving as priest in-charge of St. Francis Church Bt Norris. Tenn. His dual experience has made Pollard acutely aware of a con trast in popular altitudes toward science and religion. ' People think of science as an objective body of knowledge that can be 'demonstrated' to be true," ho said in an interview. "They think of religion as a pri vate, subjective experience that has to be 'taken on faith.' " To Pollard, this reflects the "special prejudices of our con temporary culture" rather than any inherent difference in the Expert Says Man Must A void Radiation Band Cellist Recital Said Brilliant By W. G. ROGERS Associated Press Arts Editor NEW YORK (AP) In one of the most dramatic and touching concert appearances in our time cellist Pablo Casals came to Ihc U. N. General Assembly hall Fri dav to play in celebration of United Nations Day. The world-renowned musician. who last gave a recital in the United Stales in 1928. was a fea ture of the music program held in three countries and broadcast ' simultaneously to four continents. The program here began with Charles Munch conducting the Boston Symphony in the Honeg ger Fifth Symphony, a work com posed in Paris and premiered in Boston in 1951. The distinguished U. N. audi ence of more than 2,000, with standees packed in every avail able space and an unprecedented number of ticket requests refused for lack of room, rose to greet the Catalan-born master cellist when he appeared on stage. It rose again to cheer his per formance of Bach's Sonata No. 2 in D major. It rose still again when, for an encore, he played a Catalan folksong, as poignant and touching as a prayer. The cellist, who was accom panied at the piano by Mieczyslaw Horszowski,. is 81. He produced heart-warming sounds which no one else in his day has managed to wrest from this recalcitrant instrument. fundamental characteristics" of scientific and religious truth. It is difficult to 'demonstrate' to a non-scientist even the cle- menlary principles of physics lie said. "If a person really wants to prove to himself the truth of the whole structure of physics, there is only one way to do it. He must take the long, hard, dis ciplined route of becoming a physicist. Otherwise, he is simply taking on faith the validity of the insights that are shared by those on Ihe inside of the community ot physics. "It's precisely the same way with Christianity. The only way to prove its truth is to become Christian a full Christian, deeply involved in the church, under its discipline, sharing its life. Then the truth of it breaks through." EBBING RAPIDLY Pollard knows that many peo ple who would unhesitatingly ac cept his findings as a physicist will be skeptical of his findings as a Christian. "This is part of the mind-net of our age," he said. "We have been conditioned for nearly two centuries to accept uncritically Ihe idea that science has a more reliable access to reality than re ligion." Pollard believes this prejudice against religion which has dom inated intellectual circles since the 18th Century has begun to ebb rapidly. "Everywhere I go." he said. "I run into scientists and university professors who have followed the same path I did into the Chris tian faith not because of any cataclysmic personal crisis, but simply because they have found in it the ultimate answers to man's deepest questions." CAN BE BELIEVED To further this "renascence, Pollard said, the Christian church should concentrate on proclaim ing its Gospel, not as something that modern man should believe. but as something he can believe. "There are millions of people who are ready to acknowledge that Christianity may be admira ble and helpful, but who do not believe it is true," he said. "They find it quite shocking that we Christians should claim that Almighty God, the creator of the nebulae and the galaxies, ac tually came down from heaven at a particular point in history, and for us men and our salvation was made man. "They say, Of course,' you don t really mean that. "But we do mean that not anything less. And the really astounding thing is that those who have tested this shocking claim, in the only way it can be tested, are absolutely certain that it is true. WASHINGTON (AP!-The first space man must cruise within 600 miles of the earth or zoom more than 2.000 miles up to escape a layer of deadly cosmic radiation. noted rocket scientist said to day. Dr. Ernst Stuhlinger of the Army Ballistic Missile Agency presented those estimates in a speech prepared for a convention of the Association of the U.S. Army. Above 600 miles, he said, radia tion is up to 10.000 times greater than it is nearer the earth, and this area can be penetrated only for limited periods. The G e r m a n-born scientist based his imates on radio re ports from the Army's Explorer satellites, none of which exceeded 2,000 miles in orbital height. He made no mention of this month's Air Force moon rocket. shot to a height of nearly 80.000 miles. Preliminary information from that shot indicates the radia tion may increase in intensity to a height of s.nnn or fl.ooo miles and begin to diminish about lO.ooo miles above the earth. A State University of Iowa scientist said, however, these reports were pre mature. Dr. Sluhlinger said that, based I hour or so in the area, on analyses of reports from the Among other discoveries made American satellites, the radiation by analyzing the messages from belt may peicr out at about 2,onothe Explorers, Dr. Stuhlinger miles altitude.

Now all single male high school graduates between the ages of 19 and 26',-j years, in good physical condition, can apply for pilot or navigator training." A 42-week training course is offered to all applicants who can qualify, the announcement said. During this period the cadet un dergoes a pre-flight, primary and basic training course. Upon com pleting the basic training course cadets receive an aeronautical rat ing of pilot or navigator and are commissioned as second lieuten ants in the USAF Reserve. Sgt. Looney said that heretofore many eligible high school grad uates interested in USAF careers as pilots or navigators, could not apply for cadet training due to quota limitations. Under the new program all applicants who quauly and are accepted for training can expect to be entered in a train ing class at an early date. Just how long the program will remain in effect the sergeant could not say. Young men interested in apply ing should get in touch with sgt.

Typographical Misprints Plague Editions Of Bible By TOM HKNSHAW AP Religion Writer "Printers have persecuted me without a cause," lamented King David in Psalms 119:161. He was right. "Printers" really were persecuting him in this Bible printed in 1653. The word should have been "princes." The so-called Printers Bible was neither the first nor last edition of the Scriptures to be plagued by that curse of the print shops the typographical error. Probably no edition of the Bible has been published without a mis print. Yet the Bible is one of the Ynost carefully proofread of books. "The last time I was involved in publishing a Bible," says Miss Margaret Hills, librarian ot tne American Bible society, at least four people read it all the way through. And one of them read it three or four times. 'Still it came out with errors Oh, we spelled names like Neb uchadnezzar right every time. But there were such things as 'now for 'not' and so forth." Most Biblical misprints are of no textual importance. Some, how ever, have brougnt about com plete reversals of scriptural mean ing. Picture the consternation in 17th century London when it as dis covered that the latest version of Ihe Seventh Commandment in structed: "Thou shalt commit adultery." The printers of the edition, men named Barker and Lucas, are said lo have been fined 300 pounds for the typographical misstep and that particular Bible has been dubbed Ihe "Wicked" or "Adul terous" Bible. Only a few years later, another London printer, one J. Field, flubbed St. Paul's message to the Corinthians. Asked the saint in Field's version: Know ye not that the unright eous shall inherit the kingdom of God?" (1 Corinthians 6:9) About the same time the 17(h was a bad century for Bible print ersBarker was blamed for slip ping on another typographical ba nana peel. This time the edition nan. tne Lord directing Moses to "Vex the Midianites. and smite them: hor they vex you with their wives." 'Numbers 25:18) It should, nave been "wiles." Woman's Club Notes Week MONTAGUE The first week of November has been nationally de clarcd American Art Week, and as oart of the California Feder ated Woman's Club program, the Fort Jones and Elna Woman's Club is observing the event by sponsor ing an art contest in the Scott Val ley schools. Mrs. G. A. Reynolds, Star Route. Etna, is the chairman of the committee and is in charge of handling the art contest for the Fort .lones club. Atlanta Adams is the art chairman for the Etna club. Anyone in Ihe Scott Val ley area desiring outlines and en try blanks may obtain them or further information by contacting cither of these chairmen. By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Potatoes, a staple of the Amer ican diet since colonial times, steals the food spotlight this week with prices hammered down by a swelling fall crop. Government experts look for a crop of about 176'i million hun dredweight, or roughly 12 per cent above last year and lfi per cent above the recent average. The bumper supply steepens the normal seasonal dip in prices. Americans now eat more than DA pounds of white potatoes per person every year, with nearly two-thirds of the supply from the fall crop. The yearly total js as much as all other vegetables com bined on a poundage basis. Meat .specials in the supermar kets and neighborhood grocery stores are carried this weekend. Beef cuts- ranging from chuck roast to steak appear slightly more numerous than pork as meat men await a drop in pork prices due to increased marketing ot hogs in recent weeks. Fryers are down 2 to 6 cents a pound in a few places, but other prices are relatively stable Small and medium eggs are the best bet for the housewife plan ning to wmp up an omelet be cause price margins between the smaller and larger sizes are un usually wide. Other outstanding vegetable buys this week are cabbage, cauli flower, brussels sprouts, onions spinach, swiss chard, carrots. kale, GREENHORN YREKA A program featuring dances, music, readings and talks, presented under the direction of Mrs. Laura Cawley, highlighted booster night at a recent meeting of the Greenhorn Grange. The welcoming address was giv en by Master Bryan Cannon, who also conducted the session. George Calkins, Vayne Ralston and Mrs. Cawley were introduced as past masters and charter mem bers. Work of the club, its past year's program, and an outline of future activities was described by Mrs. Florence Burgess, home economics chairman. Covering the grange insurance plan was Parks Shelley, insurance man, and Mrs. Haldis Ralston spoke briefly on the grand credit union system. In a lighter vein, entertainment included a humorous pianologue by Mrs. Edith Elliott, followed with two dance numbers by several stu dents of Karen Adele's Dance Stu dio of Yreka. 5 as a senator had the nation seen the vice president in quite such' expert political form. J The verdict of most political ob-' servers on the broadcast was that.' Nixon again was terrific. ! As a result. Rockefeller, who.. had no stomach for Nixon'i at-.; tacks on Ihe Democrats and inda-" pendents who the Republican gubernatorial candidate hopes will" help him be elected, quickly ar ranged to meet the vice president before Nixon takes off for canv--paign activities in Wisconsin to day. In this case. Nixon was credited with the kind of political victory., he scored recently over President Eisenhower and Secretary of State Dulles. When both of these lead-' crs deplored partisan discussion of loreign policy, Nixon said it was a proper subject for debate in the campaign. Eisenhower and Dulleii. bowed to his judgment in this case. In the same manner, Nixon' brought Rockefeller into lin Thursday night with a TV appear'-, ance obviously calculated to im press those likely to have some-' thing to say about the state's sup- ' port of a 1960 nominee. The political fact was that Nixon left Rockefeller no choice but to- meet with him and to endorse Nixon's campaign tactics or to. appear as a spoil-sport unworthy of regular Republican backing in 1960. On television, Nixon was Intent' on showing to the viewers in the metropolitan area that he was a man with a soft-sell, a man with f middle-of-the-road philosophy. - ' He even had some good words' for Harry S. Truman, who has had almost nothing nice to say abouL. Nixon for several years. Calling Truman a gallant war rior.
