New Pastor Captivates Bath Rotary With Life Journey
Rev. Joseph O. Purdue, new Winter Street church pastor, spoke at Bath Rotary Club noon meeting in Hotel Phoenix. He described childhood in England, years in Norway, return to England, then life in America including Ohio and Boston University.

The club reported Morse football ticket sales of 265 at $1 each and a remaining equipment-related deficit for the Morse team. State Agriculture officials, cautious on Maine farm strikes, said no signs of unrest or revolt among Maine farmers. Commissioner Washburn was unavailable for comment.
