narrated by Cornelius, Roman
commander of the Antonia Fort
ress in Jeruselam; by Judah, the
man of Koriot, a pupil of the Naz
arene; and by Jochanan, pupil of
Rabbi Nicodemon of Jerusalem.
At 3 p.m. Easter afternoon, fol
lowing “The Greatest Story,” will
be the weekly “Fellowship Hour”

al Association.

The House also passed an Enge
breth bill which would allow,
school districts to enact a tw6%
sales iix. The Vote was 17-7. The
bill is 'designed' to^fit the pattern
of' the Afichorage area where a
city sales tax is held undesirable
because so much 'of the munici
pality is outside the city limits
but inside the Stifcbol district.
