HUGE CROWD »TTB#$ MASS
CELEBRATED FOR OLYMPICS
MELBOURNE, Australia, —
More than 400 Catholic partici
pants in the Olympic games join
ed 100,000 Australians in attend
ing a Pontifical High Mass ceie-'
brated in Como Park here to
mark the XVI Olympiad.
The Mass attracted one of the
largest gatherings during the
most memorable week of Mel-
borne’s history.
The Pontificial Mass was cele
brated by Coadjutor Archbishop
Justin D. Simonds of Melborne,
in the presence of His Eminence
Norman Thomas Cardinal Gilroy,
Archbishop of Sydney, and Arch
bishop Romolo Carboni, Apostolic
Delegate to Australia.
Also present were Archbishop
Daniel Mannix of Melborne and
nine other members of the Au
stralian hierarchy.
A special section of the stadium
was reserved for the Olympic
athletes.
They presented a colorful spec
tacle in their white blazers and
the colorful berets worn" by the
women team-members.
Many recent immigrants to
Australia wore their bright na
tional costumes.
In a place of honor before the
altar were massed the Olympic,
Papal, and Australian flags, while
above the officials’ box fluttered
the Union Jack.
Hundreds of priests, nuns, and
Brothers occupied reserved sec
tions on either side of the altar.
The altar was draped with
pure white, while the canopy
over it was white lined with
blue. A great bronz crucifix hung
in front of the reredos behind the
altar.
The choir was made up of
groups from the Melbourne ca
thedral, Children of Mary, and
seminarians. They sang before the
altar from a special shell set up
for the event.
On the canopy over the altar
were inscribed the words: “Pax
Domini sit semper vobiscum.”
After the Gospel of the Mass,
Cardinal Gilroy read a letter from
His Holiness Pope Puis XII to the
Olympic athletes. The Pope cal
led on the athletes to show' by
their actions that sport should be
directed to the moral and intel
lectual achievement of the soul.
The Pope said:
“It was the custom in ancient
Greece to preface the games in
the stadium with a function of
public cult. If then in other times
athletes began the Olympic fes
tival with an act of worship, it
is still more fitting today at the
opening of our international
games that you turri to the one
and true God to render homage
to Him with your youthful en
ergies and to acknovdedge His
inscrutable rights over your
bodies and lives.”
The* Holy Father noted that
the XVII Olympiad will be held
in Rome four years hence, and
said it was with that happy pro
spect in mind that he was ad
dressing participants in the con
tests in Australia.
“May this message be a new
proof of the interests that we
have in a wholesome practice of
sports,” he said, “especially for
those peaceful international com
petitions, which, in a world which
is prey to so many divisions, fos
ter mutual understanding among
peoples in a spirit of fraternal
rivalry.”
In his sermon to the crowd
Archbishop Guilford Young of
Hobart reminded them that hu
man nature was wonderfully
dignified when “the Son of God
took Himself a human body,”
He recalled that because of
their p 1 a ce in the Mysterical
Body of Christ, the many nations
participating in the Olympics
have a unity in Faith.
Archbishop Young reminded
the athletes that while they were
participating in the various
events of the games, they were
watched by a crowd of spectators
in the stadium “from above by
the risen Christ, Who bears in
His Body the beautiful scars of
His Divine victory. By His side
stands Our Lady, gloriously as
sumed into Heaven, beckoning us
on to win for our bodies that
glorification which is already
hers.”
(A recording of the music sung
at the Mass and of Archbishop
Young’s sermon was rebroadcast
in the Netherlands by KRO,
Catholic broadcasting organization
there. The Dutch announced early
in November that they could not
participate in this year’s Olympics
because of the slaughter in Hung
ary, saying they would donate
funds to aid Hungarian Refugees.)
The official party at the Mass
included the Governor of Victoria,
Sir Dallas Brooks, and Lady
Brooks; Prince Jean and Princess
Josephine of Luxembourg; Pre
mier Bolte of Victoria and Mrs.
Bolte; and the Lord Mayor of
Melborne, Sir Frank Selleck, and
Lady Selleck.
Also in the official box was the
president of the International
Olympic Games Committee, Ave
ry Brundage,
