Evangelist Continues To Attract Converts Glasglow, Scotland (U.R) A proud mother sent her answer today to skeptics asking how long those who give Billy Gra ham their "decisions, for Christ" will keep their promise. Each night of his "Tell Scot land Crusade" the American evangelist asks the faithful to come forward. Last night there were 376 converts for a total, of 9610 in nearly a month of his preaching. But letters to newspapers and critics outside the Kelvin Hall crusade meetings keep asking how long the converts will keep their promise to live by Christ and attend church. The mother wrote Graham "I give God thanks for sending you to us." The woman whose name was not reyealed was giving her thanks not for his present cru sade but for an unheralded trip he made in 1947.
