The Southern Baptist minister said the definite scheduling of the campaign--expected to last 12 weeks--depends on the availability of Earls Court Stadium, which seats 25,000 persons. Mr. Graham said he had been invited to preach in England by a group of 70 laymen who are expected to underwrite the $500,000 crusade. Expressing fears that the country’s moral standards were in danger, the evangelist said he was shocked by crime and immorality statistics in Britain and that England needed a “moral and spiritual awakening.” Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (U-3D-64-NAB)
