YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, February 15— A soft-spoken pastor here is hitching science, law, medicine and religion into a four-horse team to pull unfortunates | from the quagmire of modern per- | plexities.

To compensate for the inferiority complex thus created, the burly lad picked a fight with every boy in the neighborhood. An eye specialist was consulted, glasses purchased, and science and re- ligion linked to overcome the complex. | The boy is doing better at school now.
