Rome I realise and ap
preciate that I am seeing
in Rome such stuff a school
children will study in history
books for centuries, the year
1962 of the Ecumenical cong
ress, the year that Pope John
(Giovanni) XXIII called to
gether the greatest gathering
of Catholics in two thousand
years, the first congress
where East and West Cath
olics have met together since
the great Schism in 1318 and
the Nicene creed. (The date
I remember along with 1066,
1402 and 1789 as I can't re
member dales today.)
Along with some say
50,000, some 200,000 inter
ested persons, I watched the
procession on Thursday last.
It was four and a half hours
long and was of such glit
tering, awesome splendor as
to be breathtaking, like some
pageant of the middle ages,
tied to the prcicnt.
Bifhops, cardinals, poten
tates and theologians filed
along Into St. Peters. The
cardinals in their white robes

their heads; the Eastern bish
ops, distinguishable by their
beards and headgear which
resembled crowns.
Eight Bearers
The Pope (II
Papa) was
brought from the Vatican
through the bronze doors, on
the shoulders of eight bear
ers in scarlet uniforms. The
colorful Swiss Guard- in their
blue and yellow uniforms,
(said to have been designed
by Michelangelo) walked be-
lde the throne with the
cream colored canopy.
Behind the Pope were the
King's guards wearnig the
helmets with the long horse
tails and the colorful gen
darmes wearing the Napol
eanic hats and black and red
suits,
In the evening, when we
again returned with the same
crowd of the day, the beauty
of everything was again al
most overwhelming. All the
statues, and there must be 200
of them anyway, were light
ed from underneath with the
soft orange light that is used
all over Rome for their treas-
urcs; the fountains in the
square were a blaze of bril
Iiance; the pope's apartment
contrasted by being cinnamon
shade, and St. Peter's itself
was floodlighted pure white.
Strips of Fire
Processions of pilgrims
carrying flares, coming from
all directions so many of
them, gave the effect of strips
of fire. The Pope blessed the
crowd, and ended with some
thing most unusual which
caured a ripple of laughter,
and great applause. He said,
cheerfully and simply,
"Thank you and good day."
Evidently Popes do not say
such homely things often.
Today, Sunday, as last Sun
day, when we stumbled into
a socialist parade, (unawares)
going in one direction and
churchmen going the opposite
way, again we were caught
in a gust of people. I was
herding my little group of
children from the Pantheon
to Piazza Navonna along a
comparatively quiet street.
Suddenly we heard clap
ping, saw people running in
all directions, so again we
scurried along and around a
corner. There in front of us,
going up the steps of (not one
of the biggest or most impor
tant ones.) a church was, the
Pope with his entourage. It
was all so simple and un
heralded, with no fanfare and
no tremendous crowds thai
we filed in, and unbelievably,
stood within 15 feet of the
most talked of man in the
world this week.
The church was all glider
ing with candlelight and tele
vision was in action.
Cheerlul
The papers have been full
of how tired (he Pope looked,
but he certainly did not today.
His voice was strong, and he
seemed a cheerful, kindly,
homely man, not too benign,
nor on the other hand, not too
stern.
This morning at the Epis
copal church, one of the
Protestant observers, the Rev.
Frederick Grant gave the
talk. I am sending a copy of
it as he made many Interest
ing comments. After the
service during the coffee
hour, I met him and asked for
a copy. As he did not have one
he gave me his notes, A young
man wan standing beside mr
and he said that he had
wished to have it too. As he
is a reporter for the Chicago
Herald Tribune and had In
have his copy to wire it, 1
gave it to him.
How wonderful to he real
correspondent, important
enough to lend ituff by wire:
