One Nation, Under God The above phraar, taken from the pledge of alleg* lance to the rtmr of the United Stale*, wag the aubject thia year for the annual Knight a of Columbtia oratorical conteat. , ' It may be of tnlONMt to know that It wm the Knight* of Columbua who led the fight to get the phraae "Untler God" added to the pledge. Thia waa accomplished juat a few year* ago. although the pledge ha* been uaed for nearly HO year*. It ia a shame that a larger audience waa not present to hear the five young men speak on the bmad subject chosen. All five <perches were above average in content, containing much thought-provoking material. The contest |a sjonaored by the Kof and oratorical program ia open to the public. The speeches emphasized the place of religion in America, from the coming of the pilgrims in 1620. to the Maryland act of toleration which established the principle of religious freedom. Jefferson's fight for religious freedom, and the declaration of independence, with its doctrine of the natural rights of man. were mentioned. The right of the individual in Decatur to attand the church of hia choice, whether it be Bethany E.U.8.. First Christian, or St. Mary's Catholic church, was explained. The separation of church and state was explained in one of the speeches as a cardinal principle of'American Democracy. The differences between Democracy and totalitarianism, capitalism and communism, were discussed. All five voung men had done much work on the project, and the community of Decatur can be proud of them. Behind each boy was his family, and his coach, and many friends. After listening to all five speeches, and while waitin gfor the judges, from Fort Waynft to tally their results, one could not help but think . . . It isn’t the fact of winning, or losing, that makes the contest valuable. . It’s the fact that in a free country, each person has the right, and even more, the interest, to take part in such a contest. And that five young men took the challenge, and worked for more than a month, to present their views. The views presented, with their rich, historic background, and with the obvious breadth of thought expressed, were important, because they represent young I thinking America. The real “winners" of the contest are the American public. In times when the sordid, and ugly in life are often stressed, it’s refreshing to have the youth of the community shine forth with their broad-based idealism. 1 Severin Schurger, Jr., James Heimann (the first and second place winners), Michael Ehler, Gerald Gillig, and Don Baker were all five outstanding.
