Jazz at Episcopal
Church Gathering
Sets Off Debate
Norwalk, Conn.-(UPD- A real
cool Mass played by a hot
jazz combo in a Protestant
Episcopal church set off a de
bate today on whether it is
proper to mix the Bible with
the blues.
"A 20th Century Folk
Mass," composed mainly in
ragtime by an English clergy
man, was played by a progres
sive jazz ensemble made up
of a pianist, drummer, saxo
phonist and bass player Sun
day at a Communion Mass at
St. Paul's church in the heart
of this community.
For nearly 90 minutes the
rafters of the English Gothic
church rang with the strains
of foxtrots, beguines, blues
and improvised versions of
.popular tunes. A record stand
ing- room- only congregation
joined in some of the singing
and swayed and tapped to
catchy rhythms.
Vestry Divided
Priests in traditional vest
ments stood before a candle
lighted altar and sang their
regular chants with incense
wafting about them. But much
of the other ancient liturgy
had been set to a jazz beat
and the organ was silent while
the combo played, often as
accompaniment to the synco
pations of the soloist and rob
ed choir.
The Mass received a mixed
reception from the record
crowd of more than 500 per
sons who jammed a church
usually attended by half that
many. -
The 12-man vestry appear
ed to be sharply divided both
on the merits of the music
and the propriety of syncopat
ing a service. Several vestry
men indicated displeasure
over bringing jazz into the
church, and said the matter
would be discussed at their
next monthly meeting.
An usher said he thought
the Mass was marvelous.
Officials Obeservers Present
Officials of the National
Council of Churches and the
National Council of the Prot
estant Episcopal church at
tended the service as "obser
vers." They were all for jazz
in church, but they agreed
that this Mass was not up to
their idea of American jazz
standards. They thought the
music was "corny."
Pianist Jtuss Martino, lead
er of the combo, director of
the Stamford, Conn., High
school band and organist in
his own Roman Catholic
church, said he did not care
much for the music composed
by Father Geoffrey Beaumont
but that it was the only jazz
Mass available.
The Rt. Rev. Walter Henry
Gray, Protestant Episcopal
bishop of Connecticut, main
tained an official silence
about the presentation.
"I know nothing about it,'
he said at his Hartford head
quarters. "The music of a
parish is under the direction

of the rector. I have no com
ment to make."
Tunes Disguised
The Rev. Anthony P. Trea
sure, rector of the church,
used the jass Mass as the
theme for his sermon, stress
ing that religion is art of
every phase of life. He said
he also hoped to show young
people that religion is not
"fuddy-duddy" or out of date.
As the worshipers arrived,
the combo, which had finish
ed appearing at a night club
only a few hours before, play
ed a progressive jazz impro
vision of "I'll Remember
April."
"There's a Witness in God's
Mercy," was followed by
"Bernie's Tune." After the
"Agnus Dei," came "Lover
Come Back to Me," and a few
blues songs. The rector's bless
ing brought a spontaneous
rendition of "It's Almost Like
Being in Love."
The pop tunes apparently
were so well disguised they
were not recognized by most
listeners. Many voiced sur
prise when they learned what
they had heard played in the
church.
'Gloria' In Foxtrot
In the actual Mass, the "Al
lelulia" was sung in a defin
ite ragtime. The "Kyrie" and
"Agnus Dei," was in beguine
rhythms. The "Gloria" and
several hymns were in fox
trot time. A bold jazz melody
dominated the "Creed,'
"Sanctus," and "Our Fath
er."
The Lord's Prayer was play
ed in ragtime while the con
gregation knelt in prayer
Some worshippers said the
jazz made them feel less rev
erent than usual. Others felt
no difference.
Mrs. Leonard Holmes, of
Hampton, Conn., and her hus
band got up at 4:30 to drive
here to listen to the music.
"I thought it was perfectly
beautiful," she said. "You
have modern architecture in
churc.hes. If that isn'f an ana
chronism, this would not be,
either." ; -

Forty seven cars competing

dawn today at the start of
the run's second day. .
All cars in the record field
completed the first leg of the
Los Angeles to Kansas City
run Sunday by covering the
462-mile distance on schedule.
The drivers will pause at
Price, Utah, for refueling to

the annual economy test of
the nation's new model auto
mobiles which this year in

officials of the United States
Automobile Club aided by
student observers from Cal-
