Aided Law Students A law student decided he'd have to drop out of school because his wife was ex pecting a baby. Instead, Miss Fazenda took up the bills. Money wasn't the begin ning of the comedienne philanthropy, "She used to go out to UCLA Medical Center, where she'd feed the young children, rock them and sing them to sleep," a friend said. "More than once a doc tor left the instruction: 'Let the child spend some time with Louise Fazenda'." One who knew of Miss Fa zenda's charities was Mrs Irving Asher, known by movie far. of another era as Laura La Plante.

Found Home for Poor "She helped wherever she could," said Mrs. Asher, "wherever she was Hong Kong, London, anywhere she always found the homes for the poor or for the children." "About a year ago," she said, "there was a little boy who wouldnt eat. The doc tors were really worried about him. But Louise would run back and forth to her home, trying out differ ent dishes, different flavors, and then coax him. He recovered." Not all of "her" children recovered.

She spent hours with terminal leukemia pa tients, Mrs. Asher said. Friday, some of Holly wood's great names came to the services at Grace Chapel, directed by Groman Mortuary. Among them were Zasu Pitts, Joan Blondell, Hal Roach, William Demarest, Edward G. Robinson, Harry Warner, Harry Brand and V.

But Friday, Miss Fazenda, wife of producer Hal Wal- lis since 1927, was buried in Inglewood Park Cemetery. And no longer could she fend off the testimonials to her philanthropy which she shunned as long as she lived.

He was taken to the Olendale Sanitarium where his physician reports that he will be discharged in about a week, if there are no complications. ButJoriajTiinister to be incapacitated during Holy Week is in Itself a minor tragedy. Dr. Alger Geary of the Baptist City Mission Society will preach 8:30 and a.m. sermons there on Easter Sunday, and that will be a help.

Mr. Johnson came to the church about a year ago. A collection of crosses from around the world is on display at the San Marino Community Church. Owned by Dr. and Mrs.

Leon OetUnger of San Marino, it includes a Chinese cross, old Zuni sun god cross, an early California cross made of 2j-cent gold pieces, a Coptic cross from Ethiopia and an old Russian cross. Further on John H. Glenn's 1 i i Dr. James Fifield Jr. of First Congregational received a letter from the astronaut written before he made his earth orbital flight.

In it, he said in part: "I have received many questions about my religious feelings and how they affect my outlook and most of them seem to push the idea that my religion should be something that' I suddenly call upon in an over the hump. "This is certainly not the way I have tried to live my life. I am afraid I have little patience with those whose religion is of the 'fire engine' type, used only in an emergency and then put away out of sight until the next emergency arises. "My religion is more of a daily type thing and would be the same whether I was an astronaut or in any other line of work." Karl Barth's visit to Chicago and Princeton has created a stir the ripples of which have been plainly felt in Southern California. Recommended reading this week: Newsweek's and Time's summaries of his life and thought, both in the current issues.

Dr. Louis Erich, whose parents live in Sunland. recently took a medical licensing examination in Korea, where he is director of the Seventh-day Ad-ventist Hospital at Pusan. Only trouble was he doesnt know Korean, the language used for about half of the questioning. "I prayed and guessed my way through the examination," he wrote.

And passed. The reason he passed no doubt was his fluency in Chinese, through his time spent in that country where his parents were missionaries for 22 years. Dr. Wilbert Little reported his experience as "tremendous" at the Man-zini, Swaziland, hospital where he did two months volunteer work at his own expense recently. It is run by the Church of the Naz-arene, of which Dr.

Little is a member. He reported briefly on his trip last Sunday at the First Church here. Not only was it a rewarding spiritual experience, he thinks, but it was medically interesting, too. Such caoes as a man bitten by a mamba (medical help came too late); another man stabbed In the heart during a beer bust (he lived to get to the hospital which was and a little boy herder who almost died of starvation (but he's coming along fine now), all made the trip interesting. i 'Requiem' Scheduled The Pomona College choir and symphony orchestra will present Brahms' "A German Requiem" in Bridges Hall of Music at Claremont at 8:15 Calsvay to the Palm Springs Sahon Sea Play GABAZQH ices in the Southland include one at the Rose Bowl of Pasadena and another at Green Hills Memorial Park, 27501 Western San Pedro.

Parker, Pearblossom Community Please Turn to Fg. 11, Col. 1 lis 'Y; i. V'V But the custom has been revived in Southern California and now there are hun dreds, if not thousands, of sunrise services scheduled for the dawn hours of Sunday. In America the custom of dawn worship on Easier morning probably begun with the Moravians, whose famous trombone aggrega tions in the 18th century began morning rites on Easter, sometimes as early as 4 a.m.

That was- in Salem, N.C., and later at Bethlehem, Pa. Early Southland Rites But the custom did not catch on among other sects until this century, and prob ably was resurrected first at Riverside where, on Mt. Hu- bidoux just outside the city, a cross has been erected and Sunday for the 51st time, a sunrise service will be con ducted there. Usually from 5,000 to 000 turn out for that event. Largest sunrise service in Southern and among the largest in the nation, is that at Hollywood Bowl where the 42nd annual observance will be conduct ed starting at 5 a.m.

Sunday. 20,000 Expected This event occasionally draws 20,000 or more worshipers. Some habitually arrive long before dawn. Others reach the damp, chill bowl at 3, 4 or even o'clock. For those who get up late.

or who cannot face the chill of the dawn, KTTV (11) will televise the service live, starting at 4:45 a.m. A taped reolav of the services will be shown from 9 to 10:45 a.m. as well as on master day. Bill Welsh, KTTV direc tor of special events, will be commentator. Bishop to Preach Methodist Bishop Glenn Randall Phillips from Denver will deliver the Holly wood Bowl sermon.

He is a former Los Angeles pastor. Two noted musical groups will take part, according to Postmaster Olesen, general chairman. They are the Salvation Army International Staff band, now in its 71st year, flying here from London for the service, and the 66-voice a cappella choir of Waldorf College, Forest City, la. In addition the youth chorus, including 20U voices of young people aged 12 to 10, will sing the traditional "Christ the Lord Is Risen Today." They are directed by Joseph E. Gaudio of bt Matthew Lutheran Church, North Hollywood.

Their appearance is a tra dltlonal highlight of the service. Notables to Take Part Others taking part include actor Charlton Heston, who will read a poem, "The Mas ter Is Mary Pick- ford, who will read the Salu tation of the Dawn, and sing er Lucille Norman.
