Men and GirlsTown Run in Italy Rome - (Uril - Boys Town, the self-governing home of wayward and homeless chil dren, has become a symbol of courage and help for the youngsters of this country. But few people know there also is a Girls Town, develop ed by the same Catholic priest who started and still runs Boys Town. The bustling Irish priest, Msgr. John Patrick Carroll Abbing, said that during his tours to raise funds for Boys Town, the question that both ered him the most was: "What about the girls?" lie had worked 13 years to build the boys' institution not far from Rome. When he decided to found Girls Town, Msgr. Carroll Abbing asked Mother Mary Dominic Ramaccioli, an Amer ican nun, to help him with the job. The well-tailored woman with gray hair - nicknamed "the nun in tweeds" - began tile project with him in 1955. They chose for the site a tiny hamlet called Borgata Ottavia. near Rome. They built a dorniitory-schoolhouse and later added a modern chapel. In the autumn of 1957 the first group of girls-16 of them -were welcomed from insti tutions nil over Italy. These girls and the others who will follow thorn-stay at the institution for five years. They arc trained to support themselves, to become gov ernesses, social workers, chil dren's counselors and for other jobs. Mother Mary works an 18 hour day to help her "chil dren." The worst part of her work, she said, is going around to all the luncheons, teas and receptions in Rome to raise funds to keep things going.
