Pope Will Continue To Work For the second time in his reign, His Holiness Pope John has gone to his summer residence at the mountain village of Castelgandolfo, where the mayor led the citizens in a rousing welcome. Immediately after his arrival the Pope appeared at window of his summer quarters to bless people gathered in the square to greet him. Over the door of the main entrance those in the square could read a Latin inscription summarisisng the reasons for the Pope's coming: "For restoration of spirit and body during a brief sojourn with the healthful and beautiful sun and sky." But the summer sojourn was not expected to be all rest for the Pope. He had already declared his intention of granting two public audiences weekly. He would also continue his vital role in the administration of the Church, and Church leaders would call on him for their
regularly scheduled conferences.
There was reason to ex pect also that Pope John
would continue the practice he instituted last year of making visits to nearby places. Last year he left the summer residence seven times to attend religious functions 'in neighbouring villages. The Pope told the crowds who had gathered that he hoped to get a little rest, but that he still considered himself bound to his duty of being useful to men. He said he must still speak of the Lord and concern himself with the need of the Universal Church. He revealed his intention of celebrating Mass in the Church of St. Thomas of Villanueva in the village of Castelgandolfo "on one of the coming feast days." This year there would be an added attraction at Castelgandolfo. Rowing competitions of the Olympic Games were 'scheduled to take place on Lake Albano, just below the summer resi-
dence. From his apartment windows overlooking the lake, Pope John would have a ringside seat.
