Graham Preaches on
'10 Commandments
529 'Make Decision1
New York (ffl Evangelist
Billy Graham preached the first
of a series of sermons on 'The
Ten Commandments" in Madison
Square Garden Monday night
and 529 persons responded to his
magnetic and impassioned plea
to "come forward and make a
decision for Christ." ,
From every corner of the huge
sports arena in the heart of Man
hattan they came forward from
the loges, the balconies and the
floor. The weeping, the joyful,
the very young and the very old
made their way down escalators
and crowded aisles to the front
of the' auditorium.
Waits Pensively
Graham stood grimly in the
pulpit, arms folded, hand on
chin, waiting pensively as the
"inquirers" filed down the long
aisles to take their-places in the
open space in front of the speak-

ers' platform.
Occasionally, as he has done
foc'the past 13 nights, Graham
urged in soft tones that the tim
id, ttie nearly.decided "cast off
hesitation" and come forward to
make, "the fateful decision."
His urging did not go unheed
ed. Still the "inquirers" came forward-little
ladies in black, a
youth in a wheelchair pushed by
his mother, duck-tailed kids in
leather jackets and high school
girls in frilly summer cottons, all
anxious to "accept Jesus Christ."
Total Reaches 8,242
Monday night's 529 conver
sions brought Graham's New
York Crusade total to 8,242 in
the first two weeks of the revi
val. Nearly 225,000 have heard
the 38-year-old Baptist minister's
sermons so far.
The decision-makers were join
ed by members of Graham's staff
of 500 volunteer counselors, who
led them to a conference room in
the basement of the Garden to
"give them guidance in reading
the Bible and following a Christ
ian life."

Free Drinks For
Legislators Toid
Raleigh, N. C. W) The Ra
leigh News and Observer said
today that it had uncovered a
service distributing free liquor
to legislators at a downtown
hotel.
The newspaper's first edition,
complete with pictures of the
liquor being delivered to the Sir
Walter Hotel, hit the streets just
as the Monday night legislative
session ended.
There were angry mutterings
from legislators as they gathered
in the Capitol corridors and ho
tel lobbies to read the story.
None would comment for pub
lication but one said "That's go
ing a little too far. Everybody is
entitled to a toddy now and
then."
Many of the legislators ex
pressed interest in the list of
names of the 33 persons the pa
per said had shared in the
liquor distribution. The News
and Observer said, however, it
was withholding the names pend
ing a check to determine whether
the legislators actually were liv
ing in the rooms registered in
their names.
Liquor is sold legally only in
state stores in North Carolina
and possession by an individual
of more than one gallon is prima
facie evidence of possession for
the purpose of sale.

to the veterinarians who helped
her through a serious illness.

had no objections to being
milked. The milk had a butter
fat content of .27 per cent com
pared with 3 or 4 per cent for
