Fiye,in VeIde Group
Confer Quietly With
Leaders Of 3 Faiths
By The As.oeia,sd Pres.


Five members Of the House
Un-American Activities Commit
tee have met quietly with q
group of Protestant. Catholic
and Jewish leaders TO receive
constructive criticisms and sug-
gestionS."
The meeting was disclosed yes
terday by Chairman velde, Re-
publican. Of Illinois. who drew
some sharp criticism last year
when he said it was entirely
possible" his committee might
search for Communists among
the Nations clergymen.
The get-together Friday night
ut q hotel here was described by
Mr.. Velde as aimed at getting
'the viewpoint Of religious lead
ers and prominent laymen re-
garding the (committee'S) work. !"
Changed Methods Suggested.
Mr.. Velde commented in his
announcement that under his
Craftsmanship "the committee
has always been happy to receive
constructive criticisms and sug-
gestions as to methods to be
used to combat subversion
throughout our country"
He said the church spokesman
made suggestions for changes In
committee investigating meth
DDS and procedures. He prom
iSed they would be given fun
consideration at an early date"
Church leaders present were
listed as the Right Rev. Henry
C. Sheriff.. presiding bishop Of
the Protestant Episcopal Church:
Rabbi Morris Kertzer of the
American Jewish Committee;
the Rev. John F. Cronin, assist
ant director of the National
Catholic Welfare Conference;
Charles c. Parlin, Protestant
layman and attorney, and Ed
ward j. Lucas. chief counsel for
the American Jewish Committee.
Committeeman present, in ad-
dition to Mr.. Velde, were Repre-
sentatives Kearney, Republican,
Of New York: Clardy, Republi-
can. of Michigan; Scherer, Re-
publican, of Ohio, and Doyle,
Democrat, of California. Mr..
Doyle told reporters Mr.. Velde
had been delegated to make any
statement and declined to en-
large on it himself.
Walters Fails to Attend.
Mr.. Velde said Representative
Walter, Democrat, of Pennsyl-
vania, who currently is up in
arms against the chairman'S
firing of Committee Investigator
Louis j. Russell, refused to at
tend" the meeting after first ac-
cepting an Invitation.
Other members not present
were Representative Jackson,
Republican, of California, who is
away from the Capital, and Rep
resentatiyes Frazier of Tennes-
see and Moulder of Missouri,
Democrats, whose absence was
attributed by Mr.. Velde to pre-
viouS engagements.
aMr. Walter in fighting the
Russell custer. said yesterday the
investigator was not responsible
for actions the Congressman
said had embarrassed the COM
mittee. For one thing, Mr..
Walter said, ''1e didn't call for
an investigation of religion"
This was a reference to the
controversy which was touched
of last March when Mr.. Velde
spoke on a radio broadcast of
the possibility of hunting for
Communists among the clergy.
Mr.. Velde later disavowed any
intention Of such a hunt, al
though he said individual clergy
men might be investigated.

Clyde Mccullough and Joe

Cavarretta says his pitching

he thinks his hurlers will come

Several new faces are still being

Mary Hardwick, one-time
British hard courts champion,
has suggested that Washington
should be the scene If the Wight
man Cup tennis matches be-
tween England and the United
States.
These matches, started in
1923. are comparable in women's
international play to the Davis
Cup contests.
Washington is a natural spot
for the Wightman Cup matches"
said the former English star,
now living in Chicago. "Women's
tennis doesn't go over in New
York or Boston. Only a small
crowd turns out. In England
and on the continent the stands
are filled when the women play.
In Washington many of the en-
bassy people who love the game
and like to watch women play
will attend the matches"

that if the cup contests were
played here at would be a social
event and draw as much as it
does at Wimbledon"
Washington tennis fans prob
ably would welcome an oppor-
tunity to watch the best women
players compete. 1t has been a
long time since the top distaff
stars have played tournament
tennis here.
Miss Hardwick, now a con-
sultant for the Wilson Sporting
Goods Co., has been in Wash
ington the last week giving ten
mis- clinics to students at George
Washington, American an d
Catholic Universities and the
Landon School. II is part of a
spring tour that will take her
through most of the South and

She insists tennis is on the up
grade rather than decreasing in
popularity, as some players
have maintained recently.
