MEN'S FELLOWSHIP
SPEAKER MONDAY
Tells   Congregational   Group
Of Directing Athletics
At Jackson Prison
Coach William Seitz, increased
in popularity last Monday evening
when he spoke before The Men's
Fellowship, of the First Congregational Church of Clare.
Speaking of his experiences while
serving as athletic director at Jackson State prison, Bill emphasized
the importance of religion in the
prison. He stated, that the first
thing a new prisoner does is to seek
out the man who is on his side, the
chaplain of his faith. He pointed
out that the men of the prison had
built their own chapel.
The coach spoke pleasingly in an
informal but direct manner. He described the athletic program for inmates and .emphasized the importance of games and recreation in
the rehabilitation of criminals as
well as for the prevention of crime
in "building good citizens in *the
community.
When asked how he liked our
community, the. coach smiled and
said that he thought it was a verjuice place to live. He feels that the
adults are behind their youth and
that such community support and
participation is of the utmost importance.
Questions and contributions naturally came in abundance after
such a friendly and candid talk by
the coach. Bill indicated that the
basketball team deserves a little
better following and all agreed, expressing the opinion that under his
excellent coaching the prospects
for the future could be nothing
other than bright.
The evenings program had been
arranged by vice president Stan
Parrish and he also provided coffee,
sandwiches and cake in abundance.
President Harold Hughes, just
returned from a trip into the south,
conducted the meeting and plans
were made for the men's group to
