Sacrifice Hit And The Future Of Life Lessons
Paul Dietrich spoke at a Chautauqua lecture titled The Sacrifice Hit, weaving wit with a life philosophy that the sacrifice hit in sports mirrors selfless acts in life. He urged youth to sacrifice now for the future, citing Ford, Rockefeller, and a farmer’s calf, and emphasized service, harmony, and communal good as path to lasting reward. The Goforth orchestra performed afternoon and evening, with Dvorak Humoresque featured.
