Billy Graham Still Draws Big Crowds
London (U.P.)—Billy Graham's organization said today the young evangelist has attracted so many Londoners to his evening meetings that he may add afternoon revivals next week.
A crowd standing six-deep outside Harringay arena had to be turned away last night after 12,000 persons, including 1,000 standees, filled the building.
The Liberal News-Chronicle published a long discussion about Mr. Graham last night in an eyewitness account of his crusade by two reporters—Elizabeth Frank and Frank Dehn.
Total attendance for the nine days of Mr. Graham's greater London crusade now has passed the 12,000 mark.
"Billy Graham sincerely believes in miracles and the miracle to him is that his houses are full to overflowing," Miss Frank said. "He said so and maybe he's got something there."
Mr. Dehn said that "whatever Mr. Graham's faults, I couldn't help thinking how much better it was that the teen-agers should be there rather than coshing (blackjacking) each other to bits in less savory places."
"I don't think for a moment Graham's message is really aimed at theagnostic or atheist." Miss Frank wrote. "His efforts seem to be directed toward galvanizing the faithful into active and verbal belief or the basis they would feel all the better for it."
Group to See Studio Of Parsons Jeweler
Members of Alpha Rho Gamma professional fine arts fraternity, will visit the Fieffer Jewelry company in Parsons Tuesday. Charles Curtis, a jeweler for the company, will show the group his studio where he does silversmithing for special orders.
Plans for the trip were completed at a business meeting last night. Carlyle H. Smith, associate professor of design, will accompany the students.

Kansas Day is an annual event at the school at which doctors from over the state meet with members of the school for discussions and lectures.
In addition to the presentation of honor papers, short talks were given by Kansas physicians.

Kansas - Home of Famous
The sweeping plains or rolling, wooded land of the Sunflower State seem to be a good environment for producing outstanding citizens for the benefit of the rest of the nation and the world.
In the field of journalism and literature looms the name of William Allen White, who spread the name and opinions of a country weekly, the town where he discussed the country and added a new dimension to journalistic integrity.
The hatchet-wielding Carrie Nation of Medicine Lodge would fail in this group as the most enthusiastic temperance leader of all time. There's the agrarian reformer, fighting Terry Simpson." And the fanatical Brownie, with his ill-fated Harper's Fork junket sharply divided American slavery sentiment in the days immediately preceding the Civil war.
From an historical outlook, there's native son John J. Ingalls, author and Sonate leader of the bloody 1864 Battle of Balmoral to battleainers in the post-Civil War Congress.

Edgar Lee Masters of Garnett blazed a new trail in poetry with the publication of his "Spoon River Anthology." Lawrence-born Dorothy Canfield Fisher has received critical acclaim for her sensitive works, including "The Bent Twig" and "The Deepening Stream."
In 1948 Kansas-born Georgia Neese Clark became the first woman treasurer of the United States, appointing former President Harry S. Truman.
And of course there's Kansas-claimed Dwight David Eisenhower, former Army chief-of-staff, commander-in-chief of the Allied forces in Europe during World War II, and now president of the United States.
A long list of illustrious men and women in all fields of human endeavor can be drawn from Kansas history and current events. Such a long list, in fact, that it's difficult to know it down fairly. But . . . here goes.
Damon Runyon, born in Manhattan, became a columnist and author with faith in human beings; his portraits of human life come humorously, wonderfully alive.
Alfred M. Landon, governor of Kansas for two terms, opposed Franklin D. Roosevelt as the Republican nominee in the campaign of 1936 which ended disastrously for the first Kansas presidential aspirant.
In the field of politics, half-Indian Charles Curtis, born in North Topeka, was vice-president under Herbert C. Hoover and the first Kansan to receive such a high national political post.
On the journalistic side of the ledger, again, we find Ed Howe, one-time editor of the Atchison Daily Globe and the famous "E. W. Howe's Monthly" of an earlier day. And
Contemporary figures in this field include Ben Hibbs, editor of the Saturday Evening Post; Doris Fleeson, liberal columnist; playwright William Inge, 1953 Pulitzer Prize winner for "Picnic," and Herman Wouk of Parsons, author of the best-selling "The Caine Mutiny."
there's Frank Irving Cobb, born in Shawnee county, who became the brilliant, eccentric editor of the old New York World.
An early railroad tycoon, Cyrus Kurtz Holliday, organized and later became the first president of the Brownsison, Topeka, and Santa Fe railroad.
Kansas has made its contributions to the industrial world, also. Walter Percy Chrysler rose from the small town of Wamego to head a gigantic automotive corporation. Architect William Aiken Starrett born in Lawrence, designed the towering Empire State building.
Currently, Swedish-born Sven Birger Sandzen is the dean of Kansas artists. This soft-spoken, gentle man made Lindsborg the art center of the Middle West.

Art - wise, John Stuart Curry heads the Kansas list. Curry is ranked with Thomas Hart Benton and Grant Wood as the trimmate of "American Scene" painting. His fiery midwestern scenes blaze from murals in U.S. government buildings and the capitol at Topeka.

Militarily speaking, Kansas has produced — besides Eisenhower — Frederick Funston, who commanded a Kansas regiment in the Spanish-
Kansas has had its share of adventurers, too—especially the feminine gender. Amelia Earlart of Atchison—the first woman to cross the Atlantic in an airplane—flew to an unknown fate in 1937. And Osa Johnson of Chanute stalked the Dark Continent with camera and husband Martin time after time to record the ferocious beauty of Africa.
