CHURCH STUDY GROUP TO HEAR W. E. GARRISON

Disciples of Christ’s Annual

Commission in Closing Sessions Here.

At its closing sessions today, the annual commission of the Disciples of Christ to study church problems was to hear Dr. W. E. Garrison, University of Chicago professor of Church History, discuss “Relation of Disciples to the Oxford and Edinburgh Conferences, and the World Conference of Churches.” Dr. George W. Buckner Jr., Indianapolis, was to lead the discussion following Dr. Garrison’s talk. The Rev. Edwin -R. Errett, Cincinnati, was to report this afternoon on “Relation of Disciples to Future Union Movements,” with discussion to be led by the Rev. H. C. Armstrong of Anderson.

Ends Tonight

The closing address will be given by the Rev. Claud F. Witty tonight. His subpect is to be “Christian Unity Conferences Among Disciples,” with discussion in charge of ‘the Rev. Homer W. Carpenter of Louisville, Ky. Disciples . should ‘devise better methods to get their local churches to feel a greater responsibility to the national Church of Christ, Dr. George A. Campbell, St. Louis, Me,, told the Commission last night at the Hotel Lincoln. “The New Testament does not authorize the autonomy of the local church,” he said.

STRIP DANGER SERIOUSLY ILL

- Fight to Save Her Life After

She Shuns Operation to

Leonard, 2, a. ‘strip tteas¢ dancer who refused to undergo an operation because the scar would lessen her professional efficiency, was in a grave condition from peritonitis today. ' Her physicians had urged an operation, “I would rather die,” she said. It could not be determined at once whether she would die. Her infected appendix had ruptured. Ice packs were being used in an effort to check the spread of the infection and she was being fed intravenously. She had received two blood transfusions. Dr. Karl Meyer said he believed she had a chance to recover and that she was slightly improved.

Called “Perfect Beauty”

Miss Leonard, a brunet, has been billed along. Chicago’s rialto as “America’s Most Perfect Beauty,”

since she first appeared in burlesque during the 1933 World’s Fair. She was stricken with appendicitis 11 days ago. Dr. Myer said an operation would make a scar one and a half to two inches long. “Its visibility would depend on how close to her audience she performed,” he said. “Such a scar would be disastrous in her profession and we sympathize with her desire to avoid if if possible.” Miss Leonard’s marriage to Edward Barry, an electrical engineer, was revealed last year when she filed suit for divorce, charging that he had injured her feelings because he had not been opposed to her nude dancing. The action, taken slightly before she went to Hollywood - to have a try at the movies, later was dropped.

RECOVERING FROM SHOT

Frank Thrall, 16, of 827 W. 29th St., was reported recovering at St. Vincent's: Hospital today from an accidentally self-inflicted guhshot wound. The youth was cleaning his-.22 caliber rifie at his home and shot himself in the right shoulder.

The Fifth Annual Commission

of Christ Church continued open forum discussions on church problems and the church program at-the
