Mission Pigrimages Planned During Lent
Students To Visit.
Diocesan Mission
Areas In March

Students of three diocesan
schools in Columbus are planning
mission pilgrimages early in March
as part of their penitential season
programs.
Thirty members of the Mission
Crusade Unit at st. Mary of the
Springs College will visit the mis-
sions of Morrow County, Sunday,

The students will first attend
Mass at st. Joseph, Cardington and
then travel to Mt. Gilead, the
county seat, where st. Matthew's
Chapel occupies the first floor of
the rectory. Father Joach m

st. Matthew's and st. Joseph. His
mission territory covers some 500

percentage compares with similar
situdlIohS e4lSIlng IN Japan and
India.
The mission unit will donate
carload of books to the library
they are sponsoring at Mt. Gilead.
The missions of Morrow county
have been adopted by the Springs
group as the object of special
study and assistance.

Appeal Made
For Cause Of
Bishop Stensen

OSNABRUECK, Germany --(NC)
An official appeal has been made
here for taking the first steps to-
ward the eventual Identification of
Bishop Niels Stensen. 18th century
Danish-born convert priest-seientist
and one-time Vicar Apostolic of
North Germany and Scandinavia.
The appeal for opening the so
called diocesan process was filed
by the German Niels Stensen Com
mittee at meeting attended by
Archbishop Wilhelm Berning of
0snabrueck and three other Bish-
ops. Messages in support of the ap,
peal came from Bishop Johannes
Suhr of Copenhagen Denmark,
Bishop Stensen's birthplace, and
the Niels Stensen committee in
Florence Qtaly), where he is bur
led.
Niels Stensen, born in 1858 of a
Lutheran family in Copenhagen,
was one of the foremost scientists
of his time, having many discov-
cries in the fields of mathematics,
anatomy, geology and paleontology
to his credit. Travelling all over
Europe, he became a Catholic in
Florence. Twelve years after his
conversion he became a priest and,
in 1877, was named a Bishop. In
keeping with a vow, he walked to
his See in Hanover. He died at
Schwerin, Germany, in 1886. At
the request of the Medici family
his remains were taken to Flor
ence to be entombed in San Loren
20.

According to an Indian spokes-

AL Chinese, or per cent of
the 14,704.

That adds up to 500, or about 28
per cent of the total who came
from UN. Command prison camps
as anti-communists.
Eighty-six refused TO go back
under communism but refused also
TO 90 TO South Korea or Formosa.
Some of these asked to go to the
US, which the Neutral Nations
Commission ruled out, as a bel
ligerent Others asked to 60 to vari-
Gus neutral countries, one of
which, repeatedly, was Vatican City.

BY the Associated Press

WIMBLEDON, England, June
2S.-Jaroslas Drobny, the self
exiled Czech, scored the greatest
upset of the 68th Wimbledon
tennis championships today when
he defeated second-seeded Lewis
Hoad, AuStralia'S leading player
in straight sets to reach the semi
finals. The scores were Ga,
6-3, 6-3. a =
The elimination of Hoad made
the prospects look easier for top
seeded Tony Trabert of Cincin-
natl, who earlier trounced fifth
seeded Mervyn Rose Of Australia,
60, 60, IS, before a crowd
Of $4,000 on the famed center
court.
Third-seeded Ken Rosewall OF
Australia followed Trabert into
the semifinals with a drawn-out
6-3, 3-6, 3-6, 6-3, 81 VIC
tory over another Australian,
eighth seeded Rex Hartwig.
Only an Hour for Trabert.
It took Trabert just an hour
to pulvertze the left handed Rose,
He won the first two sets with
almost contemptuouS ease as
Rose never was able to pull his
game into shape against Tony's
devastating speed and superior
court game.
In the third set Trabert, who
suffered a badly-bliStered rae
quet hand Saturday. survived q
minor crisis. For the first time
in the match Rose broke the
Americans service, then held his
own to pull up from SIS to SIS
Trabert quickly Subdued this
threat by pounding away at
Roses backhand and rushing the
net at every opportunity to win
the next two games. Rose had
the edge on Trabert overhead and
most OF his points came from
smaSheS. But Tony smothered
these by rushing the net.
HOad Never A Threat.
The 33-year-old Drobny, who
fled his Communist homeland in
1949, now makes his home in
Egypt. He was eleventh on the
list Of IL seeded players for the
mems singles. A great favorite
of British tennis fans. Drobny
has been runnerup at Wimble-
don twice-in 1919 and 1852.
Never in the match did the
19-year-old Hoad come up with
any sort of an adequate defense
against Drobny's steady forcing
attack. Hoad STAYED of three
match points by passing Drobny
twice and making the Stocky
Czech net once. But on the
fourth chance Drobny drew the
youngster to the side and vol
leyed behind him.
Trabert's victory came imme-
