In reply to: Ara also flipped Bill Barz, a Parade AA who was set on posted by Cuchulain
He remained close friends with Ara until Ara's death. Maybe they felt Protestants needed to stick together. . . .
Ara converted to Catholicism IIRC.
I thought I read somewhere that Ara converted later in life.
I googled and can find no evidence of that.
Sorry, my bad.
Edit: Maybe I'm thinking of Rockne's conversion to Catholicism.
