Hosts received by nearly 1000 U.
S. soldiers kneeling bare-headed
under the sky before Cardinal
Spellman's altar.
1t was almost midday when the
Marine helicopter bearing the
Cardinal and General James A.
Van Fleet came whirring across
the mountain ridges, already part
ly veiled by snow. Three thousand
men formed an open-air congrega-
ton. Many came straight down
from the mountainside bunkers
and foxholes that form the front
line. They wore rumpled, stained
battle dress. They were cold and
red-eyed. But they came eagerly
to Mass and to meet Cardinal Spell
man.
The front line was only 5000
yards ahead. The dull roar of ar
tillery sounded intermittently. Be-
hind the altar, covered and shield
ed by tenting, a gaunt gray ridge
lowered over the improvised Sane
tuary. 1t was Heartbreak Ridge.
Today it became Heart-Lift
Ridge. This Christmas Mass, the
Sacraments, the Cardinals coming
and his words would lift up hearts
of men who by late afternoon
would be back on the mountain
line.
Father (Capt.) Kenny Lynch, G.

Requiem Sung
Saturday For
FIR. Reuter-, 95

One of the oldest priests in the
u. S., the Rev. Frederick A. Reut-
er, died at st. Anthony Hospital,
Columbus, Jan. 3. He was 95.
Pontifical Requiem Mass was
celebrated for his soul by Bishop
Ready in st. Joseph Cathedral Jan.
5. Burial was in st. Joseph
Cemetery, Columbus.
Father Reuter- came to the Co
lumbns Diocese in 1924, residing
at Good Samaritan Hospital, Zanes-
vile, and assisting with parish du-
ties at st. Nicholas Parish there.
Born in New York Dec. %, 1856,
he was educated at st. Vincent
College, Latrobe, Pa, and at the
University of Notre Dame.
He was ordained a priest at
Notre Dame July 16, 1891, and
celebrated his first Mass at St.
Michael's Church, Elizabeth, N. j.,
July 26.
His first assignments were 10
colleges operated by the Congre-
CATION of the Holy Cross in Cincin-
natl, New Orleans, and Portland,
Ore, where he taught music and
literature.
He also served in parishes in
Ohio and in New Jersey before
coming to GAINESVILLE.
In the early part of the century
he made an extensive European
tour and enjoyed a private aud
ience with Pope Plus x, who was
beatified last year.
Father Reuter- was widely known
among priests for his devotional
books and pamphlets, many of
them written in verse.
One widely circulated leaflet he
authored was my Mothers
Hands," which he dedicated "to
the Christian Mothers of our coun-
try, also remembering our Christ
ian Fathers who chose the Mothers
for u.s."

L. L. Lennitzer, all of whom had
attended the Mass, were guests of
Col. Noel M. Cox, of Arlington, Va,

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 10-Arch-
bishop John F. O'Hara, CSC, told
his faithful that he had mo pro
gram to announce, no theme to
preach but the love Of God" as
he spoke to them following his
installation here.
In taking over the Philadelphia
archdiocese Archbishop O'Hara,
the former Bishop Of Buffalo, for
the second time in his 12-year
career as a Bishop tool over a see
previously held by the late Den

Dougherty was Bishop of Buffalo
from December 1915 until May
1918 when he was transferred to
Philadelphia. Bishop O'Hara head
ed the Buffalo diocese from May
1945 until his enthronement here.
Recognizing my utter unworth-
mess to follow in the footsteps of
such magnificent leaders as Car
dinal Dougherty and his eminent
predecessors" Archbishop O'Hara
told his new flock, Il only ask
leave to second and encourage
your efforts. If you will kindly tell
me your needs, shall do my best
to meet them"
The Archbishop also took the
occasion to score "those VIII o
would impugn the loyalty and re-
classify the citizenship of Ameri-
can Catholics" because Catholics
want for their school children
whatever health and welfare as
sistanee is granted to other child

O'Hara told the people of this

Homes Asked
For 200 Young
Orphan DPS

An appeal went out this week
for homes for 200 homeless Europ-
can orphans stranded by the mill
tary and political upheavals of
World War II.
The Catholic Committee for Re-
fugees reported that the young
sters, most of them between 13 and
10, represent an immediate and
urgent problem.
Msgr. Emil N. Komora, executive
director of the Committee, last
week asked Diocesan Charities di-
rectors throughout the U. S. to
''use every resourse at your COM
mand to make known the plight
of these, the most unfortunate vic
Tins of the war"
In letter to the Rev. William
E. Kappes, Diocesan Director of
Charities and Hospitals, Msgr.
Komora pointed out that "there
must be many fine Catholic par
ents who have seen their own
children grow into stable maturity;
perhaps these parents would want
to do an act of charity in gratitude
to Christ by accepting one of these
older European orphans into their
homes and hearts"
Names of some of the 200 child
rem have been listed by the Com
mittee, and additional information
concerning individual children can
be obtained from the Catholic Com
mittee for Refugees.
The Rev. Lawrence Corcoran, AS
Sistant Director of Charities (MAin
589D, will handle any local appIi-
cations received for adoption of
the homeless children.
Pictured below is typical

is a DIP camp, and whose hope is
that she will be adopted into a

their names from the registers of
the Lutheran State Church. At
the same time they will be exempt
from a part of the church tax.
But adherence to the State Lu-
theran Church is still obligatory
for the King, the Minister for
Church Affairs, judges, and other
officials. In practice, teachers in
public schools cannot be Catholics
because teachers are by law re-
quired to give instructions in the
Lutheran religion.
The official registry of all births
and marriages also remains in the
hands of the Lutheran clergymen
under the new law. AS a result
Catholic marriages and births must
be registered with q Lutheran
minister.

News Of Music
By Alice Eversmon

The Danish National Orchestra
Of the State Radio, now on its
first tour of the United States. won
friends and admirers in the Ma
tion's Capital with the program
given last night in Constitution
Hall. Not in some time has such
spontaneous playing. warm-heart-
ed and spirited, been heard from
a symphonic group. The Danish
artists. directed last night by two
conductors, Thomas Jensen and
Erik Tuxen, are exceptionally dis
ciplined. With an ensemble tone
of pronounced beauty. the out
standing feature of their art is
flexibility and clarity in dynam-
les that sets forth the music pris-
matically.
Makes Local Debut.
Mr.. Jensen and Mr.. Tuxen have
different aims and different styles
in conducting. The former, MAX
ing his local debut, was the first
to take the podium. He led the
musicians in the playing Of the
two national anthems and, after
this pledge Of friendship, launched
them into a fiery performance of
Dvorak's "Canaval Overture. ="
Taken at a rapid tempo, it demon
Strated the temperamental elan Of
which the musicians are capable
and the richness of the combined
tone.
The most thrilling portion Of
the program was the performance
Of Carl Nielsen's symphony No.
4" known as THE Extinguishable. "
1t was appropriate that Mr.. Jen-
sen conduct this work for he was
a protege of the composer. Here
is music Of such strong sincereity
that one is forced to seek its
meaning. It is not possible to cold
ly appraise the form and style for
the humanities incorporated in
the music are too compelling. It
is magnificent work that speaks
Of the stress and the upheaval of
war, Of mans bewilderment and
searching. And the way to peace
is pointed out constantly in the
recurring pastorale themes and
the noble development of a
chorale.
The four movements are played
without pause. 1t moves swiftly,
with energy, and with superb con-
structive skill. Contrasts are
dramatic, the lovely melody of
the second movement followed by
a striking passage where the
timpani violently answer each
other in an awesome dialogue.
The symphony places great
technical demands on the musi-
clans and the playing was bril-
liant. Mr.. Jensen seeks massive
effects without too great a regard
for nuance and the orchestra
> responds in kind.
Different Quality. :-.-
The impression made by Mr..
Tuxen when he appeared last
year as guest conductor Of the
National Symphony. was con-
flrmed. He is an artist of discern
ment and refinement, we'll versed
in the potentialities of the ORCH
estral palette. He drew an
entirely different quality from
his men, putting them through
all the artistic PAGES possible in

Soprano Gives Song Recital
At Phillips Gallery
By EIeno de Soyn

Patricia Connor. soprano. who
had the benefit of a Fulbright
scholarship for operate study in
italy. gave q song recital in the
Phillips Gallery yesterday after
noon. She was assisted by Regalado
Jose, pianist, on the faculty of the
University of the Philippines in
Manila, and Marian Manwiller,
clarinetist,
Her singing abroad in opera and
concert has given her poise and
experience of q professional cali
her, audible more in the manner
of presentation than in finish.
Endowed with a healthy voice OF
ample volume and with possibili-
ties of further development in the
higher and lower registers, the
singer has already something to
offer interpretatively and mu-
sically whenever she keeps within
the confines Of her present at
tainment.
Technique Lacks Perfection.
Not all selections on the pro-
gram showed Miss Connor to ad-
vantage and those sung in Ger
man least of all. Since her tech
nique has not reached as yet that
perfection of tone production
which sets a singer free and
lends color to her song, the "Sex-
tus aria" from Mozart's Titus;
Schubert's Der Hirt auf dem
Felsen" and Cornelius "Brautlie-
der" all dealing with human emo
tions, left one unmoved. Only one
number in the Cornelius Senti-
mental cycle, "Das Erwachen,
sung mezza-voce, came nearer
to the ideal of the German bel
canto.
It was not until Miss Connor
reached the fourth section of her
program, the Eight Epitaphs" by
Chandler. that she showed feel
ing. Her voice acquired steadiness,
greater ease of emission and be-
came more expressive. Musically
and \interpretatively these songs
sounded better than those form
ing the greater part Of her pro-
gram.
Fine SeIoist. :
Mr.. Jose proved himself a much
finer soloist than 'accompanist.
Although perfectly competent. his
type of execution lacked the SYM
pathy which is expected of a
pianist of his talent and quail
fications. It is as much of an art
to weave around the vocal line.
as it is for one hand to COM
plement the other, as he did when
playing his soil. His tone and bril-
liant delivery were best suited to
the selections he chose to play
alone: Debussy's "Jardins sous la
|pluie"; Respighi's "Notturno" and
Poulenc's ''Toccata." His strong,
hammer-like fingers delivered cas-
cades of sound with utmost clarity
and control and responded in
Respighi's "Notturno'' to the
poetic infections demanded by
the piece.
Mr.. Manwiller, heard in two
obligatos by Mozart and Schubert,
acquitted himself ably.
