The Rev. Andrew Foreman has escorted his daughter, Pamela, to the William Frantz School daily since the school was integrated by one Negro girl. When, the Rev. Mr. Fore man picked up his daughter at the school Wednesday, a National Council Of Churches Set To Elect Layman San Francisco-WPD- The Na tional Council of Churches was set today to elect a lay man as its president for the first time in history. He is J. Irwin Miller, 51, of Columbus, Ind., a multi-millionaire banker and industri alist who has served for the past three years on the Na tional Council's policy-making general board. Miller is a member of the Disciples of Christ denomina tion, which is known in some areas as the Christian Church. All previous presidents of the council have been or dained clergymen. The incum bent president is the Rev. Ed win T. Dahlberg, St. Louis Baptist pastor. The formal election of the new prcsidenfby the council's General Assembly was ex pected to take place today following action by the as sembly on a "message to the churches." I he draft message pre sented to the assembly con tained a strong plea for churches to work toward "full, visible unity" of the Christian family. At the same time, it assert ed that the National Council itself "must not become a super-church." This language was the end product of a sharp backstage battle within the 42-member message drafting committee, headed by the Rev. Dr. Henry Pitney Van Dusen, president of Union Theological Semi nary in New York. Dr. Van Dusen joined with the Rev. Dr. Truman B. Tjug- lass, a Congregationalist lead er, in seeking to include in the message several proposals for giving more "churchly ' functions to ecumenical' or ganizations such as the Na tional Council of Churches and its affiliated state and lo cal church councils. glowering man thrust his hand into the car window, poked the minister on the shoulder and snarled "We're going to get you, preacher." First Personal Threat It was the first face-to-face attempt at intimidation by a man thus far in the integra tion crisis here. Most of the insults and cat-calls before had come from the "Cheer leaders" - woman demonstra tors opposed to integration. The Rev. Mr. Foreman jumped out of the car after the man threatened him and asked police standing around a barricade to stop him, but the stranger disappeared be fore any attempt was made. Folice forced newsmen back and the minister's dis cussion with officers was in audible to reporters. One policeman, identified by badge as Stephen Borde Ion, smashed his nightstick into the camera of UPI pho tographer Frank B e a 1 1 y, breaking the camera and ruin ing the film. "I don't want my picture taken," Bordelon told Beatty. Give No Details W. W. Bromwell, the FBI agent in charge of the New Orleans office, said his office was checking into the alleged threat made to the Rev. Mr. Foreman, but declined to give any details. Veiled threats and epithets such as "nigger lover" and "low white trash" finally forced a meter reader to aban don his new home here.

TIP ON HOLLY" Kent, O. -mill - Planting a holly to achieve your own Christmas decorations of red and green hardly will be the berries unless both male nnd female specimens are on hand. Tree Export Martin L. Davey Jr. says there should be at least one male tree (slaminate) planted on the home grounds or nearby for every 10 female, berry-bearing (pistillate) ones. This will assure needed pollen for pollination. Shearing of .lolly for yuletide decoration will do no harm if done in moderation. Annual shearing will help keep them dense and attractive.
