Skywatchers See Giant Meteor In
 Southern States

NEW ORLEANS, R - A giant meteor, visible over southwestern and southeastern parts of the na- tion, blazed through the skies Friday night.
 There were reports fragments had reached the earth in Texas, Louisiana and Alabama. None of the reports was confirmed.
 Airline pilots, radio operators, astronomers and others from west ern Texas to Florida and as far north as Missouri reported the fiery object shortly after II p. m.
 Some said it flashed briefly through the starry moonlit. sky, giving off a daytime brilliance, and then disappeared. In some places, it left flaming trails visible for about 20 seconds.
 Oscar Monnig, an amateur as- tronomer at Fort Worth, Tex, said bearings taken on the object in dicate it probably plummeted into the Gulf of Mexico southwest of New Orleans.

Student Dies
In River Here

WORTHINGT0N - Police au-
thorities were still dragging the
swollen Olentangy River here at
press time tuesday for the body
of Joseph Roessner, second
year student from the Pontifical
College Josephinum.
Roessner attempted to swim
the -0Ientangy River, lost his
strength, and was carried under
by the current. according to 9th
er students who were at the
scene.
The 19-year-old Fort Recovery
youths death was the latest in a
series of tragic accidents which
have plagued the Roessner fam
lily.
Since 1941 four members of the
Josephinium students immedi-
ate family have been killed in
accidents.
A brother, Harold. was killed
in a traffic accident in 1941 on
his way back to the Josephinium.
Another brother, 1t. jg) Eu-
gene r.. was killed in May, 1855,
as his Navy plane crashed on his
way back to his home base in
Virginia, after participating in the
Armed Forces Day program at
Port Columbus.
Two months later his father
and stepmother, Mr.. and Mrs.
Fred Roessner were fatally in
jured in an automobile accident.
A sister, Esther. suffered in.
iuries in the latter crash and only
recently returned to her duties
as housekeeper at Our Lady of
Victory parish.
Surviving besides his sister are
two other sisters, Mrs. Irma
Wuebler and Mrs. Helen Heit-
camp and four brothers. Linus,

The night preceding the Resur-
rection was such a time, he said.
The Shepherd had been struck
and the flock dispersed Christ's
enemies we're convinced that
they had buried the ''seducer of
the people" !" His lifeless remains
lay in the tomb, His lips silent.
His power TO command the ele-
ments,. perform miracles and
raise the dead was stilled.
All these facts, the Pope point
ed out, seemed to say: "All is
finished"
"A short distance away" he
continued. amid the silence of
a tiny dwelling, there burns a
flame of faith which was never
extinguished: with confidence un-
shaken, Mary awaits Jesus.
And beholdl the earth trem-
bles. The angel deScends from
heaven and rolls away the heavy
stone which sealed the tomb and
takes his place upon it AT
long last, the dawn"
The Pope said that the hopes

past two years pursuing dirty
films all over the state with

The implication, of course, is
that there have been no such

better. Movie industry leaders
themselves have denounced the
showing of sex films in Ohio
since film censorship was nulli-
fled. So have the editors of movie
