Texas, to Atlanta every week to speak on the Bap tist hour broadcast. Five years ago. Wellborn was patrolling the forest of Italy as a ski trooper where "religion didn't seem to matter one way or the other." Now he is a theological student at the Southwestern Seminary at Form Worth, and a weekly speaker the network broadcast origi nated by the Baptists in Atlanta He flies to Atlanta each week for the program. Wellborn says that his conver sion was brought about by the death of bis best friend under machine giut fir in Italy. He recalls "Jim seemed to fcavt something I didn't have." He had previously rejected bis friend's efforts at aoul-wmning. In 1948 Wellborn returned to Baylor University, where b studying political Science. Before he had completed the course, he had decided to become a minister, and in 1947 he entered the seminary. He graduates this June. ft You walking up B " over paint store H a iChurcIiill Hints I At Possibility Of Successor LONDON. Feb. Winston Churchill has tossed out four little words n my old age" and set British voters to wondering. Wnat did he mean? Some thought the wartime prime minister, now 75, was hinting that, if bis conservative party wins the parliamentary election February 23, he plans to guide the nation for only a limited time and then turn over the leadership to a younger man. The four little words cropped up In a speech this week at Taunton. Cnurchill was disavowing that per sonal ambition caused him again to seek the leadership of the na tion. 'Even the wildest daydream of my youth has been accomplished," he said. "The only reason I am, in my old age, working and ready to work and give all the strength that I can is that I fear greatly for the state into which . our, country is getting." .., Churchill has spoken before of his advancing years. After the la bor party victory in 1945, Churchill said he might not seek office again. However, he continued to hold control of the conservative party and now is leading its campaign Lto unseat the laborites and check Britain's movement into socialism. But the phrasing of the Taunton speech would seem to indicate Churchill is ready to retire when he feels Britain's postwar crisis is licked. If Churchill does become Bri tain's next prime minister and he decides that the time has come for him to step aside, Anthony Eden probably would be next in line for the Job. Freeze Delays Free Potatoes For Schools PORTLAND. Feb. H - VP) - A breakdown in the shipping of free surplus potatoes forced Portland city schools to buy on the market the past month to fill lunch menu needs. Anne R. Brownke, coordinator for Portland city school lunch pro grams, said freezing weather in central Oregon was to blame for no deliveries during January. One carload is now en route here on an emergency basis, but subse cruent deliveries are uncertain. Miss Brownlee said managers of the school cafeterias paid com mercial prices of up to $4 a sack during .the shortage here. A new regulation governing the surplus shipments may preclude acceptance of the spuds by some schools. Except for a nominal 80 cent bookkeeping charge by the state department of education, the potatoes have been 'free and ship ping costs were paid by the gov ernment. Under the rule effective January 1, the schools will pay one cent a sack and pay transportation The new rule, combined with complaints by cafeteria managers that the spuds received recently have been low quality, may slow the .acceptance of the government potatoes. Miss Brownlee said. The department of agriculture reported it has bought only No. 2 and lower grades in the price support pur Lchase program in Oregon. .
