T GUIDING YOUTH PUEBLO, Colo. (UP) Robert I. Bell, itinerant preacher, has mors churches In this country than the combined buildings of any single faith. For seven years, Bell who calls him self the "sky pilot of the rails," has been conducting services among the nation's professional transients. Any box car is his chapel his congrega tion the thousands of hoboes and "drifters" who frequent "Jungles" over the country. He has lived In vacant lots and groves near railroad yards where ho boes make their temporary homes. He has brewed coffee and "mulligan" in tin cans around their open fftea. Knowing the language, habits and problems of the hobo, Bell is respect ed and has Influence among them. His mission, however, Is not ao much concerned with those hardened men who have been on the road, for years. He is interested more in the young boys who wander aimlessly over the country and who, he says, Invariably get into trouble. He tries to rehabilitate them and send them home. Being a "box car bishop" is not an easy Job, Bell pointed out. He came to Pueblo because a distraught moth er in Kansas City asked to help find her son. The system he uses is simple and effective. He has little trouble making friends with the men. One of his first questions to the hobo Is: "If you had a 10-year-old son and you knew he was down in these Jungles, what would you do?"- Invariably the answer, phrosed in strong language, is: "I'd come down hero after him In a hurry." Bell carries a portable typewriter, a Boy Scout flrst-ald kit and small leaflets of the books of the Bible. Although wandering about the ho bo Jungles has resulted many times in dangerous situations. Bell said ths men usually are cooperative and sym pathetic. 4 Million 01 ft for School CANTON. O. (UP) A $3,000,000 technical hlh school building will be erected here.
