SPECIAL SERVICE FOR SPORTS
CANON JAMES AND REV. D. C. HERRON • (By Telegraph—Special to "The Mail") AUCKLAND, This Day. An invitation to comment on the reply of Canon Percival James to criticism of the proposal to introduce at St. Paul's pro-Cathedral, Wellington, an extra early service for the benefit of sportsmen who would be permitted to attend in sporting attire, was declined yesterday by the Rev. D. C. Herron, minister of St. David's Presbyterian Church, Auckland. "Some of Canon James's remarks are very, very unfair, but he is an angry man and I am not going to continue to squabble with him," said Mr Herron. The Rev. W. Lawson Marsh, convener of the Auckland Presbytery Public Questions 'Committee, however, published a lengthy reply in criticism of Canon James's retorts. Both Canon James and the Rev. Mr Herron are on the air for Sunday night sermons
