LEMASS $iiae Minister of Ireland Vriilen for UPI Dublin, Ireland -(UPD-1 am very happy to send greetings for St. Patrick's Day to our kith tnd kin abroad and to the many friends of Ireland who trs to be found in every o land. 5or our scattered race, the greit festival is a day of re union in spirit which brings all of us together in love of Ireland and affectionate re tard for one another. The w rldwide celebration in honor of St. Patrick is proof, if groof were needed, of the funlamental national unity of fht Irish pe pie and of Ire- ln. OMjemtitee Well Known ST A national objectives Mick we are seeking to at tfift r well known to all our friends beyond the seas.

St. Patrick May Have Been First Irish Archeologist Washington (Science Serv-ice)-St. Patrick, patron saint of the Irish, may have been Ireland's first archeologist. Legend has it that the saint once came upon a huge grave 120 feet long and had it op ened. He then was reported to have done something every archeologist no doubt yearns to do-brought the dead man entombed there back to life for a brief interview. St. Patrick learned that the dead man's name was Cass, and that he was a king's swineherd who had been kill ed by soldiers 100 years ear lier. Concern of Missionary Leg end notwithstanding, what St. Patrick actually op ened was probably one of Ire' land's Long Barrows mounds of earth that pre- historic people were accustomed to heap over graves, v In the tale, St. Patrick's concern with the mound's oc cupant was that of a mission ary, bent on baptizing any pagan. But, because he did take an interest in the Long Barrow and its age he did have a hand in Ireland's arch eological past. Modern archeologists are learning about the builders of these ancient mounds by ard uous, painstaking examination of the composition and con tents. The builders probably migrated to the British Isles about 3500 B. C, bringing a Stone Age culture. o 9 I sW" . jams a I "J 1 5; eoTTLro by the a. c.
