He attended a luncheon given in his honor at the Hotel Savoy by the Executive Committee of the Billy Sunday Association of New York and he spoke at some length to 200 min- isters in attendance on what he thinks the churches @hould do to ipck up his efforts.

When reporters told the evangelist the executive committee had planned to keep the proceedings secret, there was a fair imitation of the Black Tom explosion in the Savoy. Sunday sal if the reporters were kept out, he and “Ma” would refuse to go in. There- fore the reporters went in also. Dr.? Christian F, Reisner presided.
