Members of First Baptist, church believe that this is the first time such a program has been carried on by a youth choir, and point out that the musicians, of high school and college age, have faithfully rehearsed and performed each week in spite of the pressure of studies, athletic activities and work. The young people prepared an hour of music and testimony en titled "What think ye of Jesus" and the program included choir anthems, boys' quartet, girls' trio, solos, instrumental numbers and a chalk drawing. The theme, telling what Christ can mean to a young person in the world to day, was enlarged by the use of personal testimonies and well loved gospel songs. The program was enthusiastic ally received by the Jacksonville Village church, the Eagle Point Community church, First Bap tist church of Ashland, Selma Baptist church and the Grants Pass Youth for Christ, it is re ported.

Complete, illustrated Mountain Climber Wants To Aitempt K-2 Second Time Rawalpindi, Pakistan (U.R) The leader of the unsuccessful American attempt to climb Mount Godwin Austen, (K-2), world's second highest mountain, said today he wants to challenge it again. "I'm sure K-2 can be climbed," Dr. Charles Houston of Concord, Mass., said. "We hope to try again next year." The deeply sunburned doctor sat beside his wife as he told of the misadventures and death which harassed his eight mem ber expedition in the attempt to scale the unconquered peak. Gales and avalanches beat the climbers back a short distance from the top, and brought death to Arthur K. Gilkey of New York. A 10-foot stone cairn five miles up the mountain marks the spot where he died in an ava lanche. "Only bad weather defeated us this year," Houston said as he rested here preparatory to leav ing for the United States with surviving members of the expedition.

Later Pietuire irigbteiiiis; Tu Major Strikes Ended The nation's labor picture brightened today as two major strikes, involving 78,000 work ers, were settled. Fifty three thousand CIO Communications Workers began returning to their Jobs in South western Bell Telephone com pany's exchanges and installa tions in six states. Another 25,000 production employees, members of the CIO Rubber Workers, reported back to work at eight Firestone Rub ber plants. Negotiations at Cleveland produced a new con tract yesterday which granted workers an average five-cent hourly pay boost and increasing their average wage to $2.05 an hour. Long Distance Threat The Firestone rubber strike agreement affected workers in Akron, Los Angeles, Des Moines, Memphis, Fall River, Mass., Potistown, Pa., and Noblesville and Newcastle in Indiana. Meanwhile negotiators re doubled efforts to head off a threatened strike by the nation's long distance telephone opera tors, also members of the CWA, against the American Telephone and Telegraph Co. Violence abated in an Indiana telephone strike. The agreement between the communications workers and Southwestern Bell resulted from a marthon 13-hour' bargaining session at St. Louis that wound up at dawn today. Will Boost Rates A union spokesman said the agreement was "generally satis factory" to the union. Details of an agreed wage in crease were not released immed iately but a Southwestern Bell spokesman warned telephone subscribers that it would result in a boost in phone service rates. The Southwestern Bell strike started 12 days ago when work era walked out in Missouri, Tex as, Oklahoma, Kansas, Arkan sas and parts of Illinois to en force demands for a 7Vi cent hourly pay raise.
