Secular Use of Church Causes Row at Harvard By JOHN H. FENTON Courier- York Times Service CAMBRIDGE, April 18 -A controversy within Harvard University over the use of the Memorial Church for other than Christian services boiled into the open today.

In the first concrete move in a situation that has been developing in the last three weeks, a group of faculty members yesterday presented a "tempered" petition to Dr. Nathan M. Pusey, president of Harvard. The exact nature of the text and the complete list of signers was not disclosed. It was understood that the essence of it was based on secularism in the university.

In "tempered" terms, the petition was believed to have asked Dr. Pusey to relax a traditional policy of permitting only Christian services in the church. Until yesterday, the controversy had been largely fed by stories, editorials and letters in the Harvard Crimson, undergraduate daily newspaper. These had engendered wide discussion in faculty circles. A side issue was a specific instance of a Jewish couple's unsuccessful attempt to be married in the church by a rabbi in 1955.

A university spokesman said subsequently that the couple was not "denied" the use of the church. Rather, the couple was "encouraged" to have the marriage performed by a Protestant minister with a rabbi present. The spokesman said the marriage was performed in that manner. The secular status of the Memorial Church is new. In 1925, a Board of Overseers' Committee of Visitors to Appleton Chapel studied the proposition of building a memorial church to Harvard war dead.

Under Harvard procedure, visiting or standing committees are appointed annually in various academic areas by the overseers. Their duties, are to study the needs the areas and to make recommendations concerning them. The committee reported that funds for the church should be solicited with the understanding Road Death Investigated Courier -Express Dunkirk Bureau FREDONIA, April 18 The of an 81-year-old farm worker who was struck by an auto here tonight is being investigated to determine the cause.
