Youth Group Aids Missionary Work By CLAIRE COX United Preu International New York (UPt A person alized touch has been added lo missionary giving. Church members in the past often have contributed to missionary work at home and abroad without knowing ex actly where the money was going. The Assemblies of God, largest of the evangelical de nominations, has a program that its officials believe gives more meaning to giving than simply putting donr.ions in the missionary barrel. "Speed-the-light" is the program's name. It belongs to the young people of the de nomination, who call them selves Christ's Ambassadors, or C.A.'s. They give for spe cific projects to specific mis- Senale Probers Speeding Inquiry In Esies Case Washington - (UPI1 - Senate investigators, seeking to speed their own marathon inquiry, called for more testimony to day on the Agriculture De partment's investigations of Billie Sol Estes. Chairman John L. McClel lan (D-Ark.) scheduled hear ings of the Senate investiga tions subcommittee's study of Estes cotton allotments. It was the seventh week for the study, and key witnesses re main to be heard. McClcllan said he views Sept. 1 as the earliest possible date for concluding the allot ment inquiry. The subcom mittee must then decide whether it wants to look into Estes' grain storage opera tions, which are already under scrutiny by a House subcom mittee. Witnesses Called Testimony on the diligence with which Agriculture De partment units pressed their inquiries into Estes' opera tions was on tap today. Called as witnesses were Charles Cleveland, chief investigator for the Agricultural Market ing Service here; Delbert J. Harrill, director of internal audit for the Agricultural Stabilization and Conserva tion Service here; and A. F. Rounsaville, of Temple, Tex., chief of internal audit for the ASC Texas office. sionaries and thus can see from the outset the signifi cance of their participation. As its name indicates, Speed-the-Light is concerned with dissemination of the gos pel, mainly with the vehicles used to carry the missionar ies assigned to spread the word. The program began in 1945 with the contribution of an amphibious airplane for use in Liberia. The second piece of equipment was a motor boat sent to the Bahama is lands. Later gifts were a jeep for Costa Rica, printing press es, radio equipment and pub lic address systems. To date, the young people have received and filled 'ndi vidual missionary requests for 517 bicycles, 497 autos, 385 station wagons, 164 mo torcycles, 78 jeeps, 46 boats, 41 trailers, 31 motors, 27 bus es and 26 airplanes. Also pro vided have been 33 animals for use in places where mo torized conveyances cannot travel. Other items contributed have included typewriters, recorders, transmitters and duplicating machines. Requests Filled Here is how the program works: a missionary makes a request for a piece of equip ment through his field secre tary. The request is sent to Speed-the-Light, which raises the necessary funds through annual "Dollar day" services in local churches and indivi dual contributions by young people. The equipment then is pur chased and sent on its way. Speed-the-Light has several firm rules. No luxury acces sories are included on any piece of equipment. Every ef fort is made to distribute equipment evenly among the various missionaries. The necessary money must be raised before equipment is purchased. All equipment re mains the property of Speed-the-Light and, when any of ii is sold, the organization gets the money to use for new items. Thus far, more than $4 mil lion worth of equipment has been bought and distributed by Speed-the-Light since its inception in 1945. "One of the most signifi cant aspects of the program is that the young people usually have a specific project for which to work," a spokesman for the denomination said. "Each gives for a certain item, such as a jeep, or air plane, and all give to a mis sionary they know. This gives added meaning to missionary giving. It also stimulates the participation of youtti in our church."

TOM TAMS IS BARBERING AGAIN at Tarns' BarberShop TOM TAMS EMIL TAMS 141 South Central Novelty Tires Serve As Surgical Devices Los Angeles - IUPI) - Rubber tires, the small variety used for novelty ashtrays, have found a role in surgery and anesthesiology, according to Childrens hospital of Los An geles. The hospital reported doc tors there are using the six inch diameter tires as pads or cushions during operations on children.

Car Model Reflects Owner's Personality New York -Are there per sonality differences between people who own convertible cars and those who buy stand ard and compact models? Yes, says a recent issue of the Journal of Marketing, quoting Ralph Westfall, a Northwestern university pro fessor. Westfall said a re search project in Los Angeles and Chicago found converti ble owners to be "more active, more vigorous, more impul sive, more dominant and more sociable," but less stable and less reflective.
