duct.

her on a charge OF resisting an officer.
Mr.. Malloy asked that the information

amended. after the charge had been
dismissed, but Philip L. Garrett. coun-

application was Withdrawn by Mr.. NAL
10y and the wOman's rearrest ordered.
The case is in connection with the

TALK OF another
REVIVAL CAMPAIGN

Laymen from most Of the evangelical
churches of Wilmington gathered at
luncheon at the Hotel dupont at noon
today and discussed plans for a union
revival campaign in Wilmington along
the lines OF The Lyon campaign that
was held three years ago.
Harold c. Glase, singer and evan
gelist who is now assisting the Rev.
Carlisle l.. Hubbard in revical services
az st. Psuis NJ. Z. Church, pdrtiui-
pated In the conference today.
The sentiment voiced by the laymen
was in favor Of a great union evan
gelicsl campaign sometime within the
coming year.
Nothing definite was done. however,
and the laymen announced that there
would be a conference. with the pas
tors OF the various churches before
any definite action would be taken.
Mr.. Clase in response to questions
related some Of his experiences with
revival campaigns in this and other
cities. II is not unlikely. should Il be
decided TO erect a tabernacle and go
ahead with revival meetings, that Mr..
Clase will be invited to become one OF
the leaders in those meetings.
Today's meeting was called by George
e King. chairman OF a joint commit
tee of laymen OF churches Of several
denominations, and none but laymen
IL.
The unanimous feeling among the
laymen Of the sixteen churches repres-
ented today was that revival cam
psign should be undertaken, but because
Of the Presbyterian New Era movement
the Methodist Centenary movement
and other big church projects, the ques-
tion arose as TO when a revival cam.
paign should be launched.
That question will be discussed at a |
on Friday, February %, which |
will be attended by pastors and lay
men OF the various churches.
