government in legislative action.
The later. convened at st. Louis,
was the old New England town
hall meeting many times multi
piled.
The general assembly con-
sisted of 988 ministerial and
elders commissioners (dele-
gateS) chosen by presbyteries
during the year preceding the
annual gathering.
Legislative matters occupied
the major part of the week
long meeting, with addresses
and special events taking sec
ondary roles. Although the Ses-
sions were held in an audi
torium seating 5000 persons,
there was an intimacy about
Kleinhans Music Hall that
brought the debates down to
almost personal discussions.
On the other hand, the
Southern Baptists met in Kiel
Auditorium, whose wide ex-
panses accommodate more than
$4,000 persons. The emphasis
here was mainly upon reports
and speeches, singing and spe-
cial events. The business side
of the meeting was not neg
lected, for at stated periods
legislative actions were de-
bated and voted.
But in such large audi
torium the debates inevitably
took on a less intimate atmos-
phere. Here the messengers
from churches affiliated with
the convention freely used
their town hall prerogatives of
addressing the gathering.
Both types have their ad-
vantages and disadvantages.
Each is an expression Of Amer
ican democracy deciding the
laws by which it wishes to be
governed. Close contact with
them over the years reveals
how well our forefathers built
in developing both mediums.

Fire Prevention
Pointers Listed
For Christmas

A few precautions designed
to keep Christmas from be-
coming a needless tragedy, have
been offered by the Montgom-
cry County Fire Prevention
Committee.
First, choose a small Christ
mas tree and then be careful
to set it up away from radi-
ators. heaters and fireplaces.
Make sure the tree is standing
in water to retard drying out.
Next, use nothing but fire
proof decorations and electric
fixtures approved by the Under
writer's Laboratory (UH for
safety.
After the Christmas presents
have been unwrapped, gather
up the paper and ribbon and
put them an outside trash can
with the lid on.
When that tree begins to yel-
low and drop needles, it's a sign
it should go. Also, the commit
tee warns don't allow any
smoking around the tree, dec
orations or wrappings.

Accused Man
Faces Third
Mental Test

lIluSL MAKE d IIlIu VlolI W oI'
Elizabeths Hospital has fur
ther complicated one Of the
strangest insanity cases on
record here.
District Court Judge David
A. Pine has ordered Jack
Roberts back to the hospital
for a re-evaluation on his
mental competency to seek a
dismissal of his appeal of a
conviction for false pretenSeS.
The Roberts case first got
into court last year when he
was indicted for passing a.
worthless check for $172 In
payment for an adding ma
chine.
After an examination by the
Legal Psychiatric Service at
District Court, Roberts was
found mentally competent to
stand trial.
Withdrawing an earlier plea
Of not guilty, Roberts pleaded
guilty to the bad check charge
and was sentenced in Febru-
ary to a one-to-three year Jail
term.
Complications Set In
However, he later changed
his mind, asking in a somewhat
incoherent letter to be allowed
to withdraw the guilty plea and
plead not guilty.
Judge Pine turned down this
request on February "a, and
the United States Court of Ap-
peals on the same day refused
to consider the case.
However, on June 28th the
appellate court reversed itself.
But there were further compli-
cations.
After Roberts was sentenced,
authorities at District Jail be-
gan to wonder about Roberts
sanity. He was committed to
st. Elizabeths. and the hospital
reported he was mentally i'll.
Then. Roberts changed his
mind again, asking that the
appeal of his conviction should
be dismissed.
The appellate court ap-
pointed Russell Pace, a Wash
ington attorney, to represent
Roberts. Mr.. Pace then asked
the court whether it felt his
client was mentally competent
to seek a dismissal.
To Hospital Again
Last October 6th-in an ef-
fort to get an answer to this
question - the appeals court
judges sent the case back to
District Court for a determina-
ton of Roberts competency.
Acting under this ruling, Judge
Pine ordered Roberts sent to
the hospital again.
On December IS the psychia-
trists said Roberts is mentally
incompetent to understand the
proceedings pending the U. S.
Court of Appeals"
Tuesday a st. Elizabeths
psychiatrist told Judge Pine
that Roberts had refused to
cooperate with doctors at the
hospital. but expressed the
opinion that Roberts is incom-
petent to seek dismissal.
Roberts Talks
Nevertheless, the Judge asked
the psychiatrist whether he
might change his opinion if
Roberts would agree to talk to
the doctor with Mr.. Pace pres
ent. The psychiatrist said it
might change his opinion, and
Roberts agreed to talk.
Following a Commute con-
ference with Roberts, the doc
tor returned to the witness
stand, saying, in effect, that he
had changed his mind and now
believes Roberts does under
stand the legal proceedings
even though he is mentally i'll
and has been for about 10
years.
The Judge then ordered Rob-
erts sent back to the hospital
for a third time for a re-evalu-
alton by other doctors.

Joan Lori Kent, respectively.
The petition states in substance
as follows:
/. That they are residents of
Montgomery County, Maryland,
residing at $3.50 Riley Road
where they have resided for
more than two years immediate
ly preceding the filing of this
petition.
2. That Robert Herbert Kuntz

individuals and as parents OF
their infant daughters Judith

their name from Robert Herbert
Kuntz, Shirley X. KuntZ, Judith
Ellen Kuntz, and Joan Lori
Kuntz, to Robert Herbert Kent,
Shirley X. Kent, Judith Ellen

spectively, because of difficulty
in pronunciation of their present

and because petitioner Robert
Herbert Kuntz is a licensed real

ance broker in the State OF

of the use of this trade name he
has at times been known as Rob
