on Palm Sunday, Mar. 20, at $50
p. m. The play will be given in
Ryan Hall, Columbus, located at
Summit st. and First Ave.
Playmakers presented this play
as their first offering TO Columbus
Audiences four years ago. but they
feel that it bears repeating be-
cause it is a masterpiece in its
field. Although simple play, it is
one of the most beautiful and mov-
inl of all the dramas depicting the
suffering and death of Christ
Based on the Scriptursl account of
Ghrist's passion, with its deep litur-
gicaI flavor, it is most fitting
spiritual preparation for Holy
Week.
The Playmakers are working
hard to bring out the great dra-
matte scenes and the spiritual val
ues contained in the play. One who
sees the play cannot help having
a deeper appreciation not only of
the merits of Christ's passion and
death, but also OF the ceremonies
Of Holy Week

NeO-Nazis In
Austria Upset
At The Polls
Independents Lose Seats;
Socialists Gain; Catholic
Premier Slated To STAY

VIENNA RadiO, NC)-The big
surprise in the Austrian elections
was the defeat of the neo-nazi I'm
ion of Independents.
Prediction predictions had eSti-
mated that they would increase
their strength by ut least so per
cent. In fact, they lost two Of
their 16 seats in the baiioting.
The final results show that B5
per cent of the electorate rejected
both communism and nazi pan
Germanism. The anti-communis
vote is significant because the
country's hemmed in on three
sides by communist regimes
Czechosloyakia, Hungary and Yu-
goslavia-and third of the coun-
try is still under Soviet occupa-
tion.
The only gains over the previous
election were made by the Social
ist Party which picked up six seats
for a total Of 70 in the new cham
ber of deputies. Despite a loss of
three seats, the Christian-oriented
Austrian Peoples Party retains a
slim plurality with "a seats in the
new chamber.
The communists will have four
seats in the new parliament, loss
of one; the Union of Independents
will have IA.
The considerable Socialist gains
are explained by their effective
propaganda among youth and
dissatisfaction among liberals who
had previously voted for the indie
pendentS.
Leading Catholics have express
ed the hope that the Peoples Party
has learned a lesson from the cleo
tion and will increase its efforts
to protect the interests of all class
es of the Catholic population.
The election results do not fore
shadow any notable changes in the
present government. Chancellor
Leopold Figl, a Catholic who has
headed the Austrian government
since 1945. is slated to remain at
the helm of a coalition Peoples
Party-Socialist regime.

medical student.
The Munich memorial services
were attended by Auxiliary Bishop
John Neuhaeusler of Munich.
President Theodor Heuss of the
West German Republic sent mes
sage saying that the action of the
Scholls and the other resistance
fighters was like an outcry of the
German soul which will resound
through history"
The rector of the West Berlin
Free University said at the serv-
ices there that the Scholls had been
prompted by conscience which for
them was Gods voice.
