we have had similar threads like this a few times.
2 names i have listed elsewhere--but no one has commented on them.
Both in the UK--in the 60's and 70's.
Graham Carmichael--a cheerful Scotsman who was partial to a drink or 10
Oliver Mc Donald--English with a very odd personality.
Does anyone else remember them ? (or was it all a bad dream ? )
was this ever a requirement?.

I was the magazines / territory servant for a couple of years.
quit the cult in 1971.

Reading this thread i keep seeing the name Alan Scott--i'm pretty sure he was the young overseer / special pio at the first cong i attended as a child---Hockley in Birmingham UK--about 1960.
He and another--Peter Hemming--went as missionary to north africa i think.
