investigated by the Women's Political

The address of the day yesterday

INDISCRETION is
DECLARED PROVED
All Night Session Ends in
Verdict Retaining
Clergyman

Guilty of indiscretion warrauting
severe censure. but vindicated of any
moral turpitude, was the verdict of
the board of managers of the north
ern California Baptist convention yes
terday after hearing charges against
Or. Claude Kelly. pastor of the First
Baptist church Of San Jose. The de-
oision was announced at o'clock
yesterday morning after an all night
session of the board
Doctor Kelly was accused by certain
members of his congregation of hav-
ing been familiar with Miss Florence
Clark. a 10 year old girl of Medford.
Ore. who had gone to San Jose to
study music. At the hearing of the
board in the First Baptist church at
Octavia and Waller streets Monday
detective testified to having shadowed
the Clark home; several deacons told
of having found Doctor Kelly In the
house after midnight. and Walter Da-
Wis and George Harter said they had
seen the minister and the girl in fond
embrace Also that they had heard
sounds Of kissing in the girls back
yard.
PASTORS DEFENSE
Doctor Kelly denied all these ac-
cusations. He said he had been in
terested in the Clark family merely
as minister, and that he had endeav-
ored to assist Mrs. Clark in keeping
her family together.
The board consists of 26 members,
but only 16 of them heard the testi-
mony in the Kelly case. The minister
is himself a member of the board. and
the question at issue sxas whether his
conduct had been such as to warrant
his being dropped from the list of
mana gers.
The board began taking testimony
al o'clock Monday morning. and did
not finish until nearly midnight Then
Doctor Kelly made an appeal IN his
own behalf. Soon after midnight the
board retired in executive session.
Six hours later the action of the
board was announced as follows:
CENsURE PRONOUNCED
''Resolved, that while we do not
consider that any evidence has been
educed that Indicates any criminal
immortality on the part of DR.. Claude
Kelly of san Jose, 1t is our judgment,
after hearing the evidence in the case.
that Doctor Kelly has been guilty of
indiscretion sufficiently grave to war
