MRS. BUCK LEAVES WITH NO REGRET Novelist Explains Feeling in Glving Up Missionary Post. By thg Associated Press. NEW YORK, May 3.—Pearl 3. Buck, ®he povelist, is quitting her life as a ary with nelther rancor nor re- gret, she sald today in her first ex- tended pronouncement since her resig- jpation was accepted by the Presbyterian Board of Missions. “I feel just as I did before,” sald Mrs. Buck. “Of course, I didn't know I was such a nuisance to the board before all this came up, and certainly 1 shouldn't want to continue a nuisance. One wouldn't like to stay with any organization that one was & nuisance to, would one? “You see, I never did do the evan- gelical sort of thing anyway. I was a teacher, and I haven't even been teaching for three years or so. “So I expect to go back to China and to continue my life just where I left off, only without the formal title of missionary. By my life 'I mean my writing, which takes up a great deal of my time, indeed, and my job of being @ wife and a mother, “I'm still devoted to China, and I imagine I always shall be. China is my home and I am happy there. I'm sure all this will make no difference to me or to my friends, “Nor do 1 harbor any resentment at all about the tangle or its results. You wee, I'm still a Christian. P'm a Chris- uan by conviction and shall continue one. My status as a missionary or as a lay member has nothing to do with that. “Am T still a Presbyterian? Surely— oh, well, I don't think that’s very im- portant. I don't go in for' creeds and that sort of thing so very much. I'm just a Christian.” Prettiest STUDENTS HONORED CO-ED AT ALABAMA SCHOOL. By student vote at Alabama Poly- technic Institute, Auburn, Vera Frances Pruet of Opelika, Ala., was chosen as the prettiest co-ed in the student body. —A. P. Photo.
