...mixes. While 62.4% want him to be "a popular speaker at the Chamber of Commerce and service clubs, such as Rotary," only half as many approve his making "occasional addresses at labor union meetings," and 22.3% are flatly against it.

Rabun, 39, new pastor of the McRae Baptist Church, where rabble-rousing, Governor-elect Gene Talmadge is the leading lay member. Shouted Pastor Rabun: "That is not strong enough!

It is dangerous to condemn a new work too quickly, but this seemed at first hearing to be nothing more than inferior theatrical background music which might have been used for "On the Town."
