Kilgore
Banquet
Thursday
By MALCOLM NASH
Worship rites on Sunday morn
ing of Oct. 13 Is likely to draw
to Friendship Baptist Church,
131st St. near Seventh Ave., the
kind of crowd that turns out on
Easter Sundays.
It will be a large crowd, but
not a happy one.
Hearts will be heavy, eyes will
be moist and the tone of the
occasion very likely will be som
ber if not dour.
As usual, the Rev. Thomas Kil
gore will preach, but his sermon
will be a sort of farewell ad
dress, touching on the memor-
! able moments of his pastorate
and thanking the church’s 1,055
I members for helping to make
I his years there fruitful and mo
mentous.

and conducting services In the
camps
er,
Community Church of
Brownsville, mi^ht have be
come a doctof oi a lawyer.
But certain influences in
his life, in particular his
wartime experiences at
he Third Army’s Omaha
^each-head in France, left
in him a,strong desire to
serve God in the ministry.
So after being graduated from
Morehouse College in Atlanta,
Ga., where his school mate was
the Rev. Martin Luther King,
Jr., he entered Gammon Theolo
gical Seminary In I960.
In addition to his wartime ex
perience, the example of his ac
tive Christian parents inclined
lim towards the ministry. For,
back in Miami, Fla., where he
was born April 12, 1921, his father
was a well-known Sunday school
teacher and his mother a very
staunch devout Episcopalian.
While at Gammon seminary he
became a clerical assistant at
Radcliffe Pfthyterian
in
Atlanta. Ordained in 1953, he was
to fiave become a chaplain in
Korea, but that war ended.
He served in Jacksonville for
two years before coming to the
Bronx in 1959 and to Browns
ville in January 1962. The latter,
he said, was becoming predom
inantly Negro and Puerto Rican
as whites moved out.
One result of this exodus is
general neglect by city depart
ments and absentee landlords.
On the other hand, the minority
group members often showed
apathy and lethargy about their
conditions
Thus as a minister, he encour
ages his members to take ac
tive part in every community
group doing good. In particular
he is stressing the necessity for
the people to register and vote.
“Brownsville’’, Rev. Miller
said, "will only become respect
ed and listened to in proportion
to the exercise of the right to
vote.” He is cooperating with the
Brooklyn ministers’ vote regis
tration drive
And his church was one of the
four Brooklyn centers where the
ministers conducted job regis
tration following the Downstate
Medical Center demonstrations.
He took part in them and was
one of the ministers arrested

The new schedules, which went

schedule and for terminating
West End trains at 57th Street.
The Saturday schedule change
results from the Transit Author

Both the Brighton and the West

minutes, the West End every 12.
The two lines run over the same

On this section of common

trains ranging from one minute

ONE POLICY
protects you, your wife and
your children
Yes, it is true—you can now
have Life insurance for all the
eligible membersofyour family
in one single policy!
It doesn't make any differ
ence how many children are
insured,either. You receive this
protection for all for the same
low premium.
Not only does this remark
able new policy provide an easy
means of greatly strengthening
your insurance program, but it
also offers very low-cost means
of adding to such insurance as
you may already have on other
members of your family.
Have your Metropolitan
Representative give you the full
details about thi^ remarkable
policy; you will find it an easy
way to further build up your
own and your family's insur
ance program.
