U. $. Supreme Court
 Justices Invited
Members of Cabinet Diplomatic Corps to Attend "Red Mass" at National Shrine, Sunday, January IS

Father White will be celebrant of the Mass. The sermon will be de- livered by Bishop Corrigan. The Rev. John P. Maher, O. s. A. and the Rev. Ralph V. Shuhler, o. s. A., of the Augustinian College, will serve as deacon and sub-deacon re- spectively. The master of ceremon- ies will be the Rev. William J. Lal- lou, associate professor of sacred n- turgy of the Schol of Theology, as- sisted by the Rev. Walter J. Schmitz, s. S., professor of liturgy, of the University's Theological College. The music of the Mass will be sung by a choir composed of seminarians from the Augustinian College and the Sulpician Seminary.
 The celebration of the Red Mass" as an annual custom at Catholic University was inaugurated by the University's School of Law in 1889 in connection with the Golden Ju- bilee of the American Pontifical in- stitution. A special faculty commit tee from the law school serves with Dean White in handling the prepar- at!ons for the ceremony, Richard A. Buddeke is chairman of the com- mitter, assisted by Vincent L. Toom- ey, M. Quinn Shaughnessy, James A. Condrick, Louis w. McKernan and J. Edward Collins.
 For centuries, it has been the custom in France for judges and legislators to participate in the Red Mass" Dean White said. 'The tra- dition was initiated by the judges who, conscious of their human limi- tations, met in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass to invoke the aid of the divine source of Wisdom and Justice in their deliberations. The term Red Mass was adopted because the particular petition of the Mass sought the aid of the Holy Spirit, symbolized by the flaming fire of Divine Love and Wisdom. The vest ments of the priests were red and the robes of the justices who attend ed, were scarlet.
 Solemn Ceremony
 "The deep appreciation of the French Court for the solemn sig nificance of this votive Mass is evil denced by the erection of the famous La Sainte Chappelle in Paris during the reign of Louis TX, St. Louis of France, who ruled from 1926 to 127O, as a proper setting for this beauti- full ceremony. The chapel was used only once each year, for this cere- mony.
 "T'he custom was adopted later in England where, for several centur- ies, members of the judiciary and the bar had joined in the Red Mass celebrated at the time of the open- ing of the courts. In the United States the tradition was inaugurated in New York. Today the annual ob- servance takes place also in Illinois, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Califor- mia, Massachusetts and the District of Columbia"

ADvICES
 4S-HOUR WEEK
Brass Workers Pledge Full Cooperation in Vic-
 tory Effort

Full cooperation of the Waterbury Brass Workers union in the pro- duction-for-victory effort was to be pledged this afternoon at a confer ence of a union committee with company officials.
 John J. Driscoll, executive secre- tary of the union, said that the Ia. bor organization, which has sole bargaining rights with the company, would suggest the establishment of a swing-shift system for seven-day, 24-hour-a-day production. Adopt tion of the plan, he said, would mean an increase of about l6 per cent in the number of workers em- ployed by the concern.
 Union sentiment, according to the secretary, favors a six-day, 48-hour work week rather than a seven. day, 42-hour week.
 John E. Mirfield was to head the union delegation at the conference. Other labor representatives sched- uled to attend were Stanley Soulds, William Fitzgerald, Timothy Flaher- ty, Angelo Fruscone, Elmer Hes and Milton Cunningham.

SAFETY CAMP AICN
 BRINGS RESULTS
269o Reduction Reported in Pedestrian Deaths in
 Conn. During Dec.

Connecticut will be well launched on its attack against the wastage of traffic accidents during 1922 if it continues the reduction in pedes- >trian deaths recorded in December of last year, Robrt I. Catlin, chair man of the pedestrian committee of the Connecticut highway safety commission and vice-president of the Aetna Casualty and Surety company, stated today.
 MT. Catlin, reviewing the results of the commissions special pedes- trian campaign last month, pointed out that a twenty-six percent re- duction in pedestrian deaths is noted for December 1941 compared with December of 1940. For the first eleven months of last year pedes- trian deaths had shown an increase of nineteen percent over the same eleven months period of 1940. Sev- enteen pedestrians were killed in December 1940.
 This achievement is due wholly to the fine cooperation of motorists

BY BOB BRUMBY

International News service sports Writer
NEW YORK. July g. - Joe
Louis next opponent in the ring
may be one of the greatest fight
ing men our war-bogged world
has ever seen.
There is a possibility that Louis.
due to army duties. may not be
allowed to defend his heavyweight
title until after the war. If such
is the case, we learned today. his
next foe may be a man of whom
we've heard little or nothing.
His name is Nicolai Korolev
and he is the heavyweight cham-
pion of Soviet Russia. Like Louis,
now a corporal in Uncle Sans
growing legions, Korolev is a
slugger.
At present Nicolai is engaged in
an important task for the United
Nations. He is one of those heroic
guerrillas behind the Nazi lines on
the central front in Russia.
WANTS TO FIGHT JOE
When he punches now il is for
keeps, but Nicolai is looking for
ward to the day when he may
engage the great Louis in a sports
manlike bout for the heavyweight
championship.
"Nicolai is big, strong like
bear" Alex Prohkoriv told us
at the Soviet consulate. 81 have
watched NicoIai fight most Of
his bouts"
Prohkoriv spoke with the aid Of
an interpreter, his friend. Alex
ander Fromin, who is attached to
the consulate.
"Nicolai Is n son of a peas
ant" Prohkoriv explained with
great pride in his voice. He
comes from the Tula region I'm
Russia. He weighs 2O4 pounds.

"All his life, Nicolai has liked
to fight. He has been a guer-
rilla since the beginning Of the
war between our country and
