    Cow Palace Jammed
For Biliy Graham's
Religious Crusade
San Francisco HP Billy
Graham had sin on the run
today.
The evangelist was frankly
astonished at the Sunday
afternoon crowd that turned
out for the opening of his
six-week crusade at the San
Francisco Cow Palace.
There were 18,000 jammed
into the cavernous building
and another 5,000 milling on
the parking lot outside. Traf
fic was jammed for six miles
around the building.
"This took us all by sur
prise," Graham said. "We
didn't expect anything like
this. I had to show my creden
tials to three different police
men to get in!"
It was the largest opening
day audience Graham has had
in 13 years of evangelism
Graham had to give two ser
mons one to those inside
and another to those outside.
The crovd, he said, "is in
dicative of the spiritual hung
er of our day." Explaining the
aims of his crusade, Graham
said sternly:
"We have not come here
to put on a show. We have
hot come here to entertain
you. We have come here to
open this book, the Holy
Bible...night after night, we
are going to open these pages
and see what the Bible says."
Search for Peace
After citing the evils of
present - day life, Graham
threw his arms aloft in a
sweeping gesture and cried:
"Is there some place I can
find peace? If you live out
here in California, and have
a home and a family, you
ought to be happy, but you're
not. You're out of ballance
that's whats' wrong.
"This thing deep down in
side you that is searching for
something is your soul. You
can't satisfy your soul by get
ting drunk. You can't satisfy
your soul by a sex experience.
"Sin that's your trouble.
That's my trouble. We are sin
ners! Every person in this
audience has broken the ten
commandments."
As his oratory warmed dur
ing the hour-long sermon,
Graham gestured violently,
often with a quivering Bible
in his left hand.

"Dishonesty, greed, cheat
ing and lust are rampant on
every side. Yoi are all sin
ners. Come forward wheth
er you understand it or not
and make your encounter
with Christ!"
During his sermon, Graham
touched on the troubles of
movie star Lana Turner.
"Something is wrong when
We see a beautiful woman
weeping because her daugh
ter killed a man," he said.
And of the wealthy resort
city of Palm Springs, Calif.,
where he acquired a deep sun
tan before arriving here, Gra
ham said he found "more
misery per square inch" there
than anywhere he has been.
After the sermon, 380 per
sons moved forward to make
a "decision for Christ." Coun
cellors took them to a side
room for interviews. As they
came forward, Graham ask
ed:
"When have we ever had
a moment like this in the Bay
Area? It may never come
again."

Medford To Host
Carpenters in 1959
Astoria (IP) The Oregon
State Council of Carpenters,
AFL-CIO, ended its 33rd an
nual convention in Astoria
Saturday after electing Swan
Nelson of Portland as presi
dent of the group.
Nelson defeated E. B. Web
er, 59 to 57. Weber had head
ed the council for 10 years.
The council, in jts closing
session, adopted a' resolution
favoring immediate activation
of federal "make work" pro
gram in Oregon designed to
spur the economy out of the
recession.
Earl Hartley, western coun
cil executive secretary of the
Lumber and Sawmill Workers
Union, urged the delegates to
support his union's fight to re
strict Japanese plywood im
ports. He complained the Jap
anese workers produce quality
plywood and get only 11 cents
per hour.
Medford was selected as
next year's convention city.
A
Gov. Knight O.K.s
Pay Adjustment
Pasadena, Calif. API
Gov Goodwin J. Knight is
sued his approval of proposed
legislation calling foe an ad
justment of salaries for fed
eral employees comparable to
pay received by workers in
private enterprise who per
form similar duties.
The governor told members
of the State Federation of
Federal employees he believ
ed such salary adjustments
would promote economy in
government "by increasing
efficiency and reducing turn
over." "The Federal government
cannot afford to lag behind
other employers in the matter
of compensating its em
ployees," he said "for this can
only result in recruitment
problems and decreased ef
ficiency of the service."
" Hollywood IP TV Produ
cer John Guedel has no per
sonnel problems in his office,
and he attributes this to the
fact that the 100 persons in
his company are all vice pres
idents, including him.
"No one is president," said
Guedel, whose radio - TV
shows have been in orbit na
tionally for up to 20 years.
"Everyone receives business
cards with his name, title of
vice president and then our
name, address and phone
number.
"You'd be surprised how
happy this makes people.
When a 19-year-old switch
board operator goes into a
department store, for exam
ple, to open a charge account
and presents her business
card, there's a little surprise,
Then someone from the store
phones and finds that she is
a vice president of John Gue
del Productions. The girl
feels good and is happy about
working for us."
Guedel, whose shows in
clude "People Are Funny" (20
years), "House Party," 14
years) and "You Bet Your
Life (12 years), said the title
applies equally to clerks,
script girls, writers, execu
tives and others.
"We tried to have an office
manager once, but no one
wanted to be known as that,"
he said.
Guedel said there's no per
sonnel turnover to speak of.
He said no one quits, and
everyone's soft with the re
sult that there's been only
one firing.
Known as Working Producer
He is known as a working
producer rather than an ex
ecutive producer whose ac
tual on-stage chores would be
handled by regular produ
cers. This means he's mighty
busy, since there are 260
House Party shows yearly,
30 People are Funny pro
grams and 39 Groucho Marx
You Bet Your Life shows.
He thinks of his shows as
a mixture of variety and au
dience participation. The kids
on House Party are never a
source of worry despite their
candidness, he said; it's what
adults say often about their
Neighbors that scares him.

originating the singing com
mercial (1937) but isn't sure
Violence Charged
To Cuban Leaders
Los Angeles (IP) Dr. Rob
ert Agramonte, who was sup
ported as a presidential can
didate by the Cuban rebels.
said that the Batista govern
ment "has kept its power in
Cuba only through the exer
tion of violence and crime."
In the text of a speech to
be delivered tonight at Lyon's
hall to a gathering of. Cuban
exiles who sympathize with
the rebel cause, the former
University of Havana sociol
ogy professor spoke out
against "press censorship,
military control of the courts
and the so-called 'emergency
law," which empowered the
Batista military forces to kill
anyone supporting the gen
eral strike."
Agramonte, who arrived
from Miami, Fla., yesterday,
will share the podium with a
former student of his, Dr.
Jose R. Navarro, in pleading
for the rebel cause.

Davis Plans Private
Plane Flight Home
John Day, Ore. 41P Bruce
Davis, 36, Fresno, Calif.,
orchestra leader, said today
a private plane would fly him
and his wife, Patricia, 35,
home as soon as she is suf
ficiently recovered. This may
be "several weeks," he said.
The Davises survived a
Diane crash in centray Ore
gon last Monday and Mrs.
Davis suffered severe frost
bite and a fractured pelvis.
She waited by the plane while
he struggled to safety through
snowdrifts. He reached a
farmhouse Thursday and she
was rescued that evening.
Davis said they were get
ting along fine in the local
hospital and it did not appear
his wife would have to have
any toes amputated despite
the severe frostbite.

now just how he feels about
what he started, is known as
the most successful producer
of "package" TV shows. One
of his precepts is that all his
shows can be simulcast that
is, on radio and TV at the
same time.
"We did once offer some
one the job of president," h
said. "I read about former
President Herbert Hoover
and his economy in govern
ment studies a couple of
years ago.. I thought we could
always save money, so I wrote
him and offered him the job.
He answered that he wouldn't
want a job unless he could
make a definite contribution
to it.
"Well, I wrote back, telling
him that we often had ele
phants on our shows, and,
after all, he as a Republican
should know about them and,
well, anyhow, he didn't an
swer that one. And that's why
we're still all vice presidents."
THE ROAD HOGS
Copenhagen iffi An ex
periment in traffic control
went out of control Saturday
when four little pigs en route
to market entered the scene.
The pigs were spilled from a
truck at a busy intersection
in the heart of the city as four
policemen sought to regulate
the crush of traffic. It took
them just 10 minutes to sort
out the jam caused while they
(tried to catch the porkers.
