The 41-year-old evangelist pep
; pers his rapid fire sermons with
such contemporary jargon as
“sock it to me,” “hang-up,”
, “turned on,” “tuned out," and
so on.
He’ll have to switch to straight
English when he goes to Europe
this fall for a campaign. He’ll be
speaking in Russia and some ot
her iron curtain courtries. He
believes he’ll have to slow h 1 s
pace to allow translators to cat
ch up.
In his autobiography “The
. Chaplain of Bourbon Street,” he
lists his ”10 most wanted men.”
Hugh Hefner, publisher of
Playboy magazine and founder
of Playboy clubs, is on the list.
“I want to see him convert
ed and change his magazine
from Playboy to Prayboy,” the
Rev. Harrington said .
A major Hollywood studio is
considering making a picture
based on the story of Harring
ton’s Bourbon street ministry.
He said he would play the part
of himself, if the movie is done.
The minister joked about it at
the Exchange Club yesterday.
He would take Elizabeth Tay
lor as his leading lady but h 1 s
wife overruled in favor of Phyl
lis Diller, he chuckled.
Harrington spends about two
thirds of his time on the crusade
trail conducting revivals such
as the one being held at the Gr
iffin High stadium this week.
The rest of the time he devotes
to Bourbon street where he min
isters to strippers, hippies, pros
titutes and drunks.
He preached in the Domino
Lounge during a recent visit to
Atlanta.
He said a woman working
there was converted as a result
of his visit. She quit the lounge
and now lives in Marietta. She
was at the Griffin High stadium
the other night to attend a ser
vice.
“That’s why I preach in plac
es like that,” the Rev. Harring
ton said.
“I’d go to hell to preach if I
could go in the name of the Lord
and get out.”

sign is really a litterbag reminder to “Keep America
Beautiful.” When not being used as a distress signal, the
white plastic bag is hung inside the car to hold trash
that might otherwise become litter. Keep America
Beautiful Inc., the national antilitter organization that
supplied the container, reports U.S. taxpayers shell out
some §SOO million a year to pick up litter from streets,
highways, parks, beaches and other public places.
