mw A monthly column of names in the news. In Hollywood 14-year-old Renee (rhymes with bay) Martz this month was having her chance at big-time record making. The widely traveled child singer and evangelist was no ticed by ABC talent scouts when she appeared on the coast-to-coast Fred Jordon Soul Clinic radio and TV pro gram last spring. On this program the low-voiced Renee sang the south ern mountain hymn “ Peace In The Valley.” Within hours Renee was rushed to ABC recording studios for test records. Roy Roger’s manager made his bid for the child singer and two Broadway producers who sat in on the test record cutting promptly offered Renee the title role in Cin derella for its Broadway run. All but the record offers were turned down and late this month Renee’s records are scheduled to go on sale from coast-to-coast. The first releases will be four popular religious songs with •the ABC orchestra furnishing music. His Imperial Majesty, Haile Selassie of Ethiopia, stopped off in Chicago on his recent American trip long enough to receive a full-length color film from Moody Bible Institute. Dr. S. Maxwell Coder, dean of education at Moody, presented the film, “Prior Claim,” to his majesty “ as an expres sion of our interest in the Christian emphasis the Emperor is putting on education in Ethiopia.” On the West coast the Seventh-Day Adventists stole the show from other Christian groups when they entertained the Emperor at their Glendale headquarters. Billy Graham's five-month long Euro pean tour was marred in its closing days when the young evangelist was stricken with a kidney ailment in Germany. After a short period of hos pitalization Graham was allowed to continue his speaking engagements. The 88-year-old China Inland Mission has just named a new general direc tor. He is J. Oswald Sanders, 51-year- old Australian. For 20 years dean of Auckland (N.Z.) Bible Institute, San ders is also well known as a Bible teacher and author. In Berkeley, Calif. Dr. Gerrit Verkuyl is busy working with a staff of He brew scholars in producing an evan gelical version of the Old Testament. His Berkeley New Testament has been widely acclaimed by evangeli cals and it is expected that the forth coming Old Testament will have tre mendous reception.
