ment on the site.
The 67-year-old Pontiff went to the Papal Villa at Castel Gandolfo on July 19 with doctors' orders to rest and spend more time outdoors. As a result, the Pope cancelled audiences for two weeks at that time and Vatican sources said that he had "over-exerted himself." He was placed on a strict regime of "more outdoor life" with a nap every afternoon, by the Papal physician Mario Fontana.
GAINING WEIGHT
The Vatican spokesman said that Pope Paul had been gaining weight since his arrival at his summer home and that he has been getting sunshiny and fresh air, as his new suntan shows. A relaxed Pope spent the feast day of the Assumption—one of Italy's most festive holidays— among the people of Castel Gandolfo. He wound up his day watching native dances and listening to native songs sung by seminar ians of Rome's mission-territory college at their own summer villa at Castel Gandolf o. He applauded performances vigorously and smiled broadly throughout. Especially at this song and dance feast, the Pope s eemed for the first time in weeks to shed his Preoccupations and relax.

MOSCOW RADIO QUOTES POPE
BONN: RADIO Moscow broadcast an appeal to "all men of goodwill" to heed Pope Paul's remarks on the 20th anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing,
Anyone interested in this apostolic work should see the Director of Catholic Education. Monsignor J. Bourke at All Saints' Memorial Centre, who will be able to supply further infe,rmation.
In an appearance on the balcony of his summer home early this month, the Pope pleaded for the outlawing of atomic weapons. and prayed that "the world may never again see a day of misfortune like that of Hiroshima." Radio Moscow said the Pope's mP.zsage was a "noble call." and urged that it be taken to heart
by "all who have charge of mankind's future." Radio Moscow asked if the Pope's message was to be interpreted as a recommendation that Catholics begin dialogue with "people of different ideas" to help save the freedom of all men.
