5 Years Of Research Gablelite Bases Book On Christ, His Teachings

by JOHN SHAPIRO The gap between architect and author may sound formidable to some, but not to Dr. Upton Clary Ewing, 362 Minorca Ave. Dr. Ewing, a member of The American Institute of Architects and designer of many buildings here including the Fuller and Parsons Buildings, is the author of a new religious book "The Essene Christ". The book, which is the result of over five years of intense research into the historical background of early Christianity, deals with the relationship between Christ and His teachings and the ancient Essene sect from Judea. Four Parts The work is divided into four parts, or books and contains recent discoveries from the Dead Sea Scrolls. Dr. Ewing considers "The Essene Christ" to be must reading for every Christian. Interviewed at the Ewing Gallery, in Coral Gables, the doctor confided that he alternates his house slippers between feet because it allows the heels to wear down more evenly. Paintings, Sculpture The Ewing Gallery, which is built around a secluded patio and pond, features paintings and sculpture by the doctor and a large organ that his wife, Loris, plays for concerts. This year the Ewings plan to have Christmas entertainment at the Gallery. Dr. Ewing is also a Metaphysician associated with the International New Thought Alliance and an ordained minister whose religion teaches that all men are sons of God and members of a great universal brotherhood. "The Essene Christ" will soon be available at local book stores.

The Association recently requested bus service to the downtown area and had been asked to furnish information on their request. Transportation Director Chester Smith reported to the Commission that he had no additional equipment to service the area. The Commission, however, indicated that it will seek to provide the transportation somehow is some need can be shown.
