(AP)-Those singing Southern Baptists headed home Saturday, their annual con vention chores carried out with some debate and a lot o song. The old-time hymns, both solemn and lilting, were a big part of their big, four-day con clave. At lunch counters and in the corridors, you'd hear them humming "Blessed Assurance" or singing softly: "Where He Leads Me I Will Fol low." And every session opened with what was called "fellowship in song." It was not just a formality. Those 15,000 Baptists could really shake tne ratters of the huge fair grounds Coliseum. In the last day's sessions Fri day they also had a bit of their familiar free-swinging debate before deciding to recommend a top-level conference of Negro and white Baptist leaders to seek solu tions to interracial problems. But fnday night, with many of the "messengers" leaving early, there was serene unanimity as the thinned-out meeting adopted what had been foreseen as a con troversial plan the posting of a Southern Baptist observer at the United Psations. The step was proposed by a Threat Told ByTimbermen PORTLAND (AP) - Deer and elk are a threat to the reforesta tion of the Tillamook Burn and are raising havoc on tree farms, timbermcn told a state Game Commission hearing here Friday Frank Sargcant of the Oregon stale Board of Forestry told the packed hearing a 1958 field sur vey showed an average of 18 per cent of the 38 million trees plant ed on 47.500 acres of northwest Oregon state lands were damaged by the animals. A Georgia-Pacific Corp. spokes man said an estimated 20 million board feet of lumber was lost be cause of animal damages. He said the damage was heaviest in Coos, Curry, Lincoln and Linn counties. The timber spokesmen urged an increased kill at the hearing on 1959 big game hunting regulations. The commission was scheduled late today to set tentative regula tions for the year, with final reg ulations to be announced after a June 5 hearing.

Some advance protests had been raised about the U.N. ob server plan by Baptists who thought the step might be com pared to proposals for the govern ment to send an ambassador to the Vatican. Baptists generally strongly oppose this. The peace commission said Baptists can contribute to the cause of peace by prayer, preach ing the gospel, supporting agen cies that seek peace, including the U.N., and by backing efforts for disarmament agreements. In other major actions during their four-day convention, mes sengers" of the nine-million-member denomination: 1.

Urged increased vigilance to safeguard religious liberties in the current era of overlapping func tions of church and state institu tions. 3.

Contractors Standing Pat SEATTLE (AP) Contractors apparently are standing pat on their opposition to a hiring hall clause despite an adverse ruling from the NationafLabor Relations Board.

Medics Tell Nerve Theory LOS ANGELES (UPD-A ne theory of nerve impulses was dis cussed by bio-chemists and physU ologists from nine nations gath ered at the City of Hope in Durate tor a three-day symposium. The scientists said the most widely held theory today is that impulses bridge the gap from one nerve cell to another by way of a specially secreted chemical. The older theory was that the impulses jumped from one cell to another as a spark jumps across gap. Dr. Horace W. MaGoun, UCLA physiologist, pointed out that the nervous system not only must car ry impulses to incite activity, as stimulating muscles to move or glands to function, but it has aa equally important function of In hibiting activity.
