COULDN'T SPLIT A HOT DOG


I've heard folks say they had too much business
but never had one convinced until last week.
stopped at nearby village and talked with
merchant about advertising

Of, said the gentleman If hadn't felt so good this
morning I'd never have opened the store . Rather
be fishing When open up folks bother about
getting stuff credit Amt worth it,
Guess the nice old man had a point If he ever
gets energy enough, he'll probably retire.

Bishop Helps
Launch School
Fund Drive

Parishioners of st. Francis de

Churches in Newark opened the
general phase of fund drive for
a new Catholic high school Sunday.
Spurred by an address by Bishop
Ready, who asked Gods blessings
for the success of the drive, the
solicitors began a house-to-house
canvas, following a meeting at st.
Francis de Sales Church.
The two parishes seek TO raise
S400, ,0of for a new central high
school, 10 be built on a 20-aere
site at w. Church and Twenty
Third Sis.
The new brick, concrete and
stone building will accommodate
450 students and will answer an
acute need for additional school
facilities in Newark. st. Francis de
sales High School, in operation for
more than 30 years, has become too
small to handle the rapidly-increas-
ing enrolment.
Previously, Father Edward Nc
Ginty and Father Richard Crosser,
respective pastors of st. Francis
and Blessed Sacrament parishes,
had announced that the memorial
phase of the campaign has raised
S219,3 in subscriptions. They
expressed confidence that the cam
paign goal would be exceeded.

cred from the throat operation he
underwent last year.
This was the word brought here

garian refugees to reach here.
He said he believes Cardinal
Mindszenty is still under close
guard in a newly-developed rural
area at Hortobagyi Puszta, near
Debrecen, where ''he certainly was
last August" and is visited by his
aged mother twice year,
Mr.. Tarlo, grandson of the Cardl-

tried and sentenced as an Amer

uncle was arrested on December
&c. 1948, but was released in 1858.
He said he was threatened with
re-arrest last year, but escaped to
Yugoslavia, and finally crossed the
Austrian border on July 4, togeth-
er with 80 other Hungarians.

St. Vincent de Paul Shop Helps Poor
Needy People Find
Charity, Bargains
AT Unusual Store

There's a store on E. Rich
st. where it's cheaper to buy
a new pair of trousers than
send your old, worn out ones
to the dry cleaners.
Although the small shop poses
little threat to huge retail stores
(or the dry cleaners), it gives inn
measurable assistance to the peo-
pie who are poor,
The shop, of course, is oper-
ated by the ST. Vincent de Paul
society-an organization of ap-
proximateIy 500 Catholic men in
fhe diocese banded together to
help the people for whom the
depression of the thirties has
never ended.
To those who must make every
nickel count, the shop sells such
items as ladies dresses (25 cents),
water glasses (35 for SD, and
mems trousers (25 cents. And to
those who are pennies, the store
dispenses such articles as cloth
ing, furniture, and dishes without
asking cent.
In charge of this phase of the
Society's widespread charity is Den
mis- Mcdaniel, kind and congen-
ial man who gauges the success of
the "business" by the amount of
goods he gives away.
Everything in fhe shop Is for

Local Missionary Revealed
AS Benefactor by Ex-P.O.Ws
Father Agnol's Tireless Efforts Behalf
OF C.I's Revealed at NY. Convention

''Let me die peacefully and quiet
ly. | do not want publicity on such
stuff. 1t was nothing. It was my
duty"
The telephone clicked and your
reporter returned the receiver to
the hook in the Catholic Times
office.
Although he--Who happens to be
Father Mario Dali Agnol, has man.
aged to keep many things about
his life quiet, as he wishes, one
phase of this busy little white
bearded priests life came out in
the open last week in New York
City when the American Ex-Prison-
ers of War held their eighth an
nual convention and Father Agnol
was the center of all activities.
The New York Times stated:
Zone of the most feted persons in
New York yesterday was Fa-
ther Agnol."
The story appeared under the
heading: italian Cleric RiSked Ar
rest to Help Interned GI.'s-At-
tends Convention Here"
But Father Agnol, a member of
the Missionary Institute of SITS. Pc
ter and Paul, had not even seen
the New York Times story. He
wished no publicity - no pictures.
Now residing at the SITS. Peter
and Paul Mission House, 324 E.
North Broadway, the 63-year-old
priest has been visiting former
war prisoners ever since he came
to America in 1949. He has visited
with seventy of his former charg-
es during his travels over the Unit
ed States.
None of his former "proteges"
lives in Columbus or Central Ohio,
Father Agnol stated.
One of the purposes of the an
nual convention of the American
Ex-Prisoners of War is the setting
up of a research program by the
Wainwright Memorial Res arc h
Foundation.
Purpose of this foundation is to
spur a study of the diseases re-
sulting from malnutrition and 9TH
er rigors of prisoner-of-war life. A
campaign is now under way to
raise funds for this foundation.
