Starting Young Cradle roll classes of candidates in the Knights of Pythias are advocated by Carl R. Mitchell, grand keeper of rec. ords and seal. Mitchell recently was a guest at Paul Revere lodge at Terre Haute, Ind., when Guy Kornblum Jr., 18, was initiated. The lad's application was entered in the lodge when he was four days old.
