Texan Trades His
Skis for Sermons
ATLANTA -(INS)- From skis
to sermons is the story of Charlie
Wellborn, 23, who cuuuiiutes from
Fort Worth. 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.

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. .
