B the Associ 55, KANSAS CITY, Kans, April 23.— Rev. James Cornish, 52, Greet Bend. Kans., pastor, phrased a denial today to a charge he had stolen a kiss from Mrs. Pearl Thomas, 37, who asks $5,000 damages for assault and battery. Mrs. Thomas criticized his technique in court yesterday. She testified Mr. Cornish stole the kiss two years ago when she went to confer with him in the library of the First Christian Church here. of which he then was pastor. She was a choir singer and teacher. Mrs. Ray Mundis said the health of the complainant had suffered and “she was as pale as a ghost afterward.” Attorneys for Mr. purpose of blackmail and that the kiss- ing incident was fictitious. was expected to be turned over to the defense today.

N striking contrast to zecent ama- teur offejngs in Washington of old-time ys of action is the more subtle performance given last evening at the Arts Club of “Outward Bound,” which has won its place in theatrical history. A plot which deals largely with the creations of fevered minds and developments that come through dia- logue are the most difficult for actors of the most professional type. That a local organization can produce approximate results such as were shown at the Arts Club may be laid to the artistic and practical char- acter of the activities of this organ- ization, Members of the club evidently ex- pected these results, for, despite stormy weather, there was a full at- tendance in the club auditorium and generous applause was bestowed on the several members of the cast for their individual climaxes in the play.
