Graham Calls lor Christians to Gird Themselves ' Chicago - I1JPII - Billy Gra ham told the biggest crowd thus far In his Chicago cru sade Friday night that Chris tians must gird themseWes with discipline to battle the "giants" of the '60s. Graham, speaking to an es timated 55,000 persons in lakefront McCormick Place, drew the theme for his ser mon from the story of David and Goliath. Faces Giants "Today we face many gi--ants, such as communism, the hydrogen bomb, racial tcn- . sions, economic pressures and moral deteriorations. The church faces giants such as indifference, unbelief, prayer lessncss, hyprocisy, lack of courage. Youth faces such 'In dividual giants as bad temper. jealousy, carelessness, coa formity, disobedience, lazi ness, selfishness, doubt, sex, vocation, marriage, tempta tion, the evangelist said. ."These are the giants that we face in our lives every day." Graham said to conquer these "giants" Christians must discipline their minds, emo tions, instincts, bodies and tongues. "To be a true, effective di sciple of Jesus Christ, we must seek to discipline our lives and endeavor to walk as he walked," Graham said. "We need a. revival of Christian example." Following Graham's mes sage, 1,357 persons made "de cisions for Christ," bringing the total for the first 10 days to more than 8,400. The night's gathering brought at tendance for the crusade, which ends June 17, to al most 330,000.

Saturday afternoon, city officials removed the blockade. See story on Page 1-A, Measures to Help Growing Urban Areas Are Drafted Salem - ftFPIt - Five proposed pieces of legislation to help urban areas out of a growing population straitjaeket have been drafted by legislative counsel by request of the Leg islative Interim committee on local government, a spokes man has announced. One of them would make the state pay for relocation of facilities acquired for high way purposes. At present, the State Highway department doesn't have to pay for such relocations if it doesn't want to. And it hasn't been doing it lately, making a i number of. local service districts sore. Wat Vetoed A similar bill passed the the U. S. Geographic Names board. Phil Brogan, Bend newspa perman, will preside. Members of the board have been invited to attend t h e Friday evening banquet ot the Oregon Newspaper Publishers association convention Rt Gearhart. 1961 Legislature but was ve toed by Gov. Mark Hatfield. He said SB-510 was uncon stitutional. The interim committee, which will make recommenda tions to the 1963 Legislature, is considering a new version of SB-150 thought to meet the constitutional objections. The five bills are in tenta tive form, all based on recom mendations to the nine mem ber committee made by execu tive secretary Richard Ken nedy, Eugene, in May. Ken nedy made 12 recommenda tions, none of which the com mittee has adopted yet, in cluding the five in bill form. Clearer Picture Some of the other 12 ideas also arc being drafted into bill form so the commission can gel a clearer picture of them before making policy decisions this summer. The other four already in bill form would: - Extend authority of coun ties to create tax supervising and conservation commissions, budget watchdog agencies. At present, only Multnomah county has one because the law applies only to areas of 300,000 or more population The committee is thinking about lowering the population requirement to perhaps 50,- 000 allowing such counties as Lane and Marion to create such commissions. - Make it easier for cities to annex. - Redefine the powers of county courts. -Provide governmental sub divisions with more latitude in intergovernmental cooperative efforts.

MAIN Ph. 773-6241 NASA Looking for New Astronauts Washington - H'PD - The I national space agency is thumbing through more than 250 applications in a search for five or 10 more astro nauts. Among the new crop may be the first American to fly to the moon. The applications came in response to the National Aero nautics and Space administra tion's announcement April 18 listing basic qualifications. The application deadline was June 1, and NASA expects to make its selection" next fall. The armed services sup plied 53 of the applications after preliminary screening of an even larger group of test pilots. More than 200 of the applications came from ci vilians. The civilian group, which included many persons pat ently unqualified, will be screened down to 15 or 20, a NASA spokesman said. He said the agency will "take a hard look" at about 70 applications, military and civilian, before paring the list down further. The applicants left after the first screening will be in terviewed and given written examinations on engineering and science next month. After that, the ones still in the running will be given rig orous physical examinations. The selections of the astro nauts who will join the origi nal seven will be made, prob ably in September or Octt ber, by Robert R. Gilruth, head of the manned space craft center at Houston. They will join the first sev en in the post Mercury Gem ini and Apollo programs, aft er undergoing intensive train ing. The Gemini program calls for astronauts to orbit the earth for up to a week in two man space craft. Apollo is the project to land men on the moon before 1970. The first Gemini flights, which will include training in coupling spacecraft and rock ets in orbit, will begin late next year.
