Her beauty and poise were striking. After ascending by elevator, Msr. Kennedy and the Ameri can prelates passed along the Raphael-designed loggia to the Clementine Hall of the Vati can Palace. Her entrance into the hall was saluted by a squad of six Swiss Guards. In the hall, Mrs. Kennedy was received by Msgr. Mario Nasalli Rocca di Corneliano, master of chambers, and digni taries of the papal household. Her passage through the se ries of rooms leading to the Pope’s study was saluted by units of the Palatine and No ble Guards. At precisely 11 a. m., Arch bishop O’Connor and Msgr. Nasalli Rocca escorted Mrs. Kennedy to the Pope’s study. On entering, she genuflected, kissed the Pope’s ring and sat down in a chair beside his desk. Mrs. Kennedy later said that she was immediately put at ease by the Pope’s manner. During the 30-minute audi ence, she said, she and the Pope talked about her family. She recalled that when she told the Pope that her daugh ter’s name is Caroline, he said: “Ah, after the saintly Charles Borromeo.” The Pope called to her at tention that he, her husband and her son all have the same name—John. In an exchange of gifts at the end of the audience, Pope Joh;i gave Mrs. Kennedy rosa ries and medals for members of her family. She presented the Pope with a volume of the President’s speeches. “To Turn the Tide.” Toward the end of the audi ence, Archbishop O’Connor, Msgr. Thomas Ryan of the Sec retariat of State, Msgr. Benin casa, Msgr. Marcinkus and Fa ther Cronin rejoined Mrs. Kennedy and the Pope. Pope John escorted Mrs. Kennedy out of his study and through a series of .adjoining rooms, an honor considered rare since he normally bids goodby to his guests at the threshold of his study. Immediately after leaving the Pope, Mrs. Kennedy went to the apartment of Amleto Cardinal Cicognani, Papal Sec retary of State and former Apostolic Delegate to the U. S., where she visited for 20 min utes. The Cardinal gave her a prayerbook in English for Ca roline’s First Communion and a doll dressed in the uniform of a Swiss Guard. While Mrs. Kennedy was visiting Cardinal Cicognani, Pope John received in special audience a group of more than 30 U. S. newsmen who are fol lowing Mrs. Kennedy in her travels. The Pope greeted each journalist individually and chatted generally as he passed from one to the other. Mrs. Kennedy, Archbishop O’Connor, U. S. embassy offi cials and newsmen left the Vatican shortly before noon.
