Double Birthday ROME, July 10-(NC).-Two anniversary celebrations of Italian Catholic Action are expected to bring about half a million young people from Italy and foreign countries to the Eternal City during the course of September. During celebrations His Holiness Pope Pius XII. will address a message to the youth of the
world. The first observance, representing the 30th. anniversary of the feminine section of Catholic youth groups, will be held from September 4 to 6. It is expected to bring about 250,000 Catholic young women to the city. The second observance will be the 80th. anniversary of the masculine section of Italian Catholic youth, which will be held from September 10 to 12, and is expected to bring a quarter million of young men to Rome. Fifty-four nations have been invited to participate, and it is expected that representatives from the United States and many other nations will attend. The programme will include athletic, cultural and religious activities. Highlights of the celebrations will be midnight Mass and general Communion.
