A subject that periodically
crops up in religious publica-
tions is the demand by congrega-
tions for young ministers. BY
young Is usually meant be-
tween IS and 40 years old, and
this leaves many top men out
in the cold.
The question is thoughtfully
approached by the Rev. Asbury
Lenox in q recent issue Of the
Christian Advocate.
What do congregations want
in a pastor. Mr.. Lenox asks.
In counseling, do they want
experience or book knowledge
In pastoral calling, do they want
the help that only seasoned ma
turity can bring or the counsel
ing of the untried?"
Mr.. Lenox then points out
that too many congregations
think only of the physical re-
quirements demanded by many
church posts. This suggests q
failure on the part of laymen
to do their job, he indicates.
With the need for ministers
far outstripping the supply, older
clergymen today have q good
chance to hit at the age barrier
being set up by many congrega-
tions. In Washington many re-
tired ministers are daily proving
age Is no deterrent to doing a
flrst-class job by taking over
fiedgling groups. Pastors in
their SOS are also confounding
those calling for young" min
listers by the vigor of their min
istry.
Mr.. Lenox proves he isn't BIZ
ased by revealing his age-28.

Religious News Editor Of The Star.
One of Washington's most
popular clergymen. DR.. Seth r.
Brooks, will celebrate his
fifteenth anniversary tomorrow
as minister of the UniverSalist

FRO baby the predominant
characteristic of DR.. Brooks
ministry is his keen interest In
people as individuals.
For example. the countless
couples he has married do not 60
out of. his life when they leave
the church door. If they remain
in Washington. he somehow
manages to keep in touch with
most of them. And he keeps q
correspondence tie with those
who leave.
His range Of personal interest
extends from young to old. Col
lege students who, have heard
him on their campuseS look up
DR.. Brooks when they come to
Washington. Older parishion-
ers needing help turn to him for
advice and guidance.
On the congregational level
DR.. Brooks has taken his church
from financial dependence on
the national body to complete
self support. During his pas
torAte the membership steadily
has increased despite the we'll
known f1uidity of Washington
congregations. In addition nu-
merous interior improvements
have been made to the attrac-
tive church on Sixteenth street.
Among the many civic activ-
tiles of DR.. Brooks are his MEM
bership on the Citizens Advisory
Board on Alcoholic Clinics and
his former membership on the

At first it was Marilyn Mon
roe. now it's Betty Hutton,
each with a separate complaint
that suggests the price a fem
me performer pays for success.
Miss Monroe wants to get
unmarried: Miss Hutton wants
to get married. Miss Monroe
wants to stay in pictures. Miss
Hutton wants to get out of pic
lures. If either of these has
been listening to Bing CroSby's
Count Your Blessings" the
evidence suggests that neither
understands the lyrics OF the
song. Both seem rather dis
contented, at this stage. You
can trust that at some future
date in their lives, both will
win a philosophy that leads to
happiness rather than head
lines.
But that is neither here nor
there as the windvane mur-
INJURED. The revealing thing is
that Betty, like many other
femme headliners, suggested
that the spotlight is not con-
ducive to romance. II want to
be a girl" said she.
Years ago, when she first
went to Hollywood, a bespec-
tacled young comic fell deeply
in love with Betty. And she
cared for him, too.
"Tell you what busted 1t up"
said the comic. ION IL sue
cessive dates with Betty, she
insisted that we go to IL diff
ferent theaters to see one Of
her pictures. It was the same
picture. Love didn't stand a
chance in that kind of setup

White House staff, because
Mr.. Shollenberger was right.
He had no other course.
AS President of the United
States, Gen. Eisenhower gets
unlimited time on radio and
television. But when he ap-
pears on a partisan political
program, as in Denver the
other night, he is bound by the
same regulations as any one
else. Specifically, a political
broadcast must end when the
paid-for time has elapsed.
For the Denver rally the
Republican National Commit
Tee bought time from CHS
television and the NBC and
Mutual radio networks. BY
agreement. CHS supervised op-
erations and Shollenberger was
dispatched to Colorado to
handle the key assignment.
Our easy-going neighbor has
made a close study of the
Presidents speaking habits.
He finds that at political rail-
lies, the Chief Executive reads
about 10 lines of printed text
per minute.
Advance Warning
Lew got a copy of the Denver
text in advance Of the broad
cast and found it ran 252 lines.
So he told White House aides
Robert Montgomery and Muir
ray Snyder that he doubted the
President would complete the
address in the time allotted. It
was decided to rearrange the
program slightly, cutting down
on some of the preliminaries
to give the President an earlier
start.
For the first four minutes,
Gen. Eisenhower proceeded at
the pace expected. Then his
audience began to warm up
and interrupted with frequent
bursts of applause. So when
he was half way through the
prepared text, he was two min
utes behind schedule. This
meant he would wind up four
minutes late, If something
weren't done quickly. Messrs.

If Betty Hutton is sincere in

Sophie Tucker. Because Sophie
had picked Betty to star in the

There Is more to "a Star is
Born" than mere size, however.
It has some superb song-and-
dance numbers to embellish the
introspective Hollywood story
which made a hit film the first
time II years ago. It is played
with sincerity and most ef-
fectively by Judy Garland and
James Mason as the rising and
falling stars. It makes excel

screen. For all its length, Di-
rector George Cukor has seen

"a Star Is Born" still lives
in q little world all it's own,
considerably removed from the

story, which undoubtedly
seems perfectly normal to all
in the film colony is based on
the tenet that attainment Of
movie stardom is the noblest
goal Of man or woman.
In the pictures physical
aspects it remains in a dream

Of Hollywood life amidst the

invites her dinner guests into

button and a large screen
slides up at one end of the
room. She presses another but

Two on on Island
Curiously, or maybe not so
curiously, the two comedy
dramas sought and found
their glittering backdrops in
fabulous Long Island estates.
Maybe some smidgeon of self
consciousness made them get
as far away from Beverly Hills
as possible while remaining
where wealth is accumulated.
Anyhow, "Sabrina" unfolds
almost entirely on Long Island
