New York, uring the commits
sioners to rise and give a vote
of thanks to DR.. Mackay "for
his leadership in his hour" Only
one dissent came from the $50
commissioners to the meeting.
The action came after unani-
nous rejection by the assembly
Of an overture (resolution) sub
mitted by the Presbytery of Spo-
kane asking that letters or pro-
nouncements, such as "A Letter
to Presbyterians." be regarded
as IAN expression of the council
and not an ex cathedra deliv-
erance of the General Assembly. /"
The overture expressed the view
of some members who objected
to certain statements in the
letter.
Under the denominations pol
icy the General Assembly is its
supreme governing body. with
the general council acting for
the assembly during the year.
The denomination has more
than 2.5 million members in
$3.50 churches.
Praised by Bonnell.
In an address supporting the
resolution voicing confidence in
DR.. MacKay. DR.. John Suther-
land Bonnell of New York de-
clared "the issue which this reso-
luton presents is one Of the most
important to come before our
Assembly. for it goes to the root
Of our existence as church"
DR.. Bonnell said he knew from
personal experience what DR..
MacKay had gone through since
his letter was issued.
Previously DR.. Vale. in present.
ing his resolution, said DR.. Mac
Kay had received threatening
letters and had suffered much
at the hands of people. some Of
whom claim to be Presbyterians. "
1--WE should make it perfectly
clear that there can be no breach
between the General Assembly
and those appointed to act for
U.S." DR.. Vale. also a former
moderator, declared.
Had Signed Protest.
DR.. Bonnell indicated he had
received similar treatment after
sending a telegram, of which he
was one Of three co-signers, to
President Eisenhower about a
year ago "in refutation Of a
slander made against 250.000
Protestant ministers who, con-
trary to the traditions of Amer
ican justice, were esteemed guilty
until they could find some means
of proving themselves innocent" J"
Observing that President Ell
senhower warmly commended"
the telegram, the New York min
lister drew prolonged applause
when he declared it 'was the
beginning of q process Of de-
flation of one Of the most con-
treversial figures that has trou-
bled the American Nation in
half a century. That process
is continuing and the adoption
of this resolution will give 1t a
mighty impetus"
The commissioners today will
take up the report Of its social
education and action committee.
It is expected that statements
of the church's position on inter-
national and national issues will
be set forth in the document.
The General Assembly, which
opened last Thursday, will close
tomorrow.

A rookie salesman was doing
his best to keep his job in a cloth
ing store but the boss wasn't too
happy. Finally the boss picked out
a loud purple suit with white
stripes and promised the rookie
salesman that if he could sell that
lemon, he needn't worry about
his job. The poor guy tried des-
perately for three days but GUS
toners would turn pale when he
showed them the purple suit. On
the fourth day, the rookie walked
into the boSs's office and gasped,
Give sold the suit" His own suit
was torn, his legs were bleeding
and he looked a mess. Puzzled
the boss exclaimed, ''Well, you've
won your job, but / didn't expect
you to take such a beating in do
ing it. How did you convince the
guy?" "Oh, l didn't have any
trouble with the customer, re-
piled the persistent salesman,

is a golf course for a strong
driver and a good putter. Billy
10 is both.
From late Wednesday last un-
til the 18th hole of the last
round Billy 10 was a strong
driver, a good putter and lucky.
He made hole in one that hit
smack in the cup. He birdied
the ninth hole all four times
he played it. He twice played
the front nine in 80. He did
everything right. He admitted it.
He even took his defeat better
than his rooters. "Cheer up"
he yelled to the mournful pro-
ceSsion after his seven of the last
round. Its only a game"
The day of the playoff some
body mentioned to him that most
OF the people who were out to
watch Snead and Hogan had
rooted for him the previous day.
People don't really pull for
millionaires and winners" Billy
10 told a small group. "They
were roofing for me because I'm
not millionaire and I've never
won much Of anything" he
laughed.
Not many recalled that Pat
ton had a fleeting moment of
fame in the National Open last
year at Oakmont. Denny Shute
remembered because he was a
part of it.
Patton. an 80 shooter in the
first round of the tournament
proper at Pittsburgh, was four
under par for the first six holes
OF the second round. Denny
Shute was his partner. Suddenly
a USGA official appeared on the
course and told Patton and
Shute to speed up.
Shute demanded an explana-
ton. There wasn't another play
er within two holes of them. The
answer was something to the ef-
feet that the course must be
cleared for Hogan. Patton be-
came ratified and went five over
par the rest of the way. Shute
was SO mad when he finished
the round he stormed into the
press tent and shouted for at
tention so he could report the
injustice to the young amateur,
X X X
Incidentally, we understood
our friends of the radio pulled
another skull at Augusta. Cut a
coast-to-coast hookup off the air
with Hogan addressing his 90
footer on the 18th. If the putt
had gone in and Snead had
missed, it would have been tied
again. But apparently somebody
had to give a commercial.

right down to game time yester-
day before announcing Chuck
Stobbs as his starting pitcher for
the Senators against the Yam
KEGS.
A reporter got the Washington
manager aside long before the
game, explained that his papers
next edition would hit the street
at 2::30 and that it wanted to
carry the pitchers name. Edition
time. he pointed out. was too late
to tip Bucky's hand to Casey
Stengel.
Harris was cooperative, but
wouldn't talk. He merely ficked
his left wrist slightly to indi-
cate it would be Stobbs.
Old timers were reminded of
the seventh game of the 1924
World Series when Bucky started
Curly Ogden, righthander,
against the New York Giants in
an effort to make John McGraw
juggle his lineup. Bucky's particu-
lar aim was to get First Baseman
Bill Terry out of the game. Un-
known to McGraw, George Mog-
ridge, a lefthander, warmed up
secretly under the stands.
