TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN Greetings

We wish to state that the radio debate scheduled between J. L. Hines, Dallas, and J. Frank Norris, Ft. Worth, to begin on November 5; 1944 is not the debate for which J. Frank Norris challenged the churches of Christ in Ft. Worth. The debate he asked for was accepted by the Polytechnic and Castleberry churches of Christ with the endorsement of the following Ft. Worth congregations: Riverside, Calmont Ave., North Side, Central, Arlington Heights, White Settlement, Samuels Ave., Highland Park, Handley, Birdville, Washington Heights, Lake Worth, and Rosin Heights. These endorsements for a debate to be held between Foy E. Wallace, Jr. and J. Frank Norris did not thin, and neither do they now constitute an endorsement of a radio debate between J. L. Hines and J. Frank Norris.
