Latin is not the only tongue in which Roman Catholic priests in the U. S. intone the solemn prayers and hymns of the Mass. In the byways of the faith, in many an obscure church, priests chant Greek, Rumanian, Arabic, Armenian. Slavonic and in many other details the rites they celebrate differ from those of Rome.

I am ignorant of the source where newshounds acquired that erroneous and misleading fact of bald-headed Ekizian's being a Turk. I am certain that Ekizian, himself an Armenian, would not have informed sport scribes that he was a Turk-an insult to any true Armenian! Majoring in journalism at school, I am quite aware of the fact that some reporters resort to "sensationalism" to ask for a raise the next morning; or perhaps they are alliteration fiends unable...
