FOUS PROCESSIN HONORS ST_JOAN High Catholic Clergy Join, V/ith French Civic and Army 2 Authorities in Rites. nwaonvas By the Assoctated Press. -ROUEN, France, May 30.—In honor St. Joan of Arc, the girl in her teens who libsrated fifteenth century France, and who was burntd at the stake | heresy, the high clergy of the Catholic| Church and the Jeading civic and m.l.- tary authorities of France today united 19 'a pious procession of atonement. For thes first time in a quarter of a egntury, sincs the separation of church and state in this country, 60 ranking prelates, each accompanied by two ‘gnons, trod their solemn way through e streets of Rouen in full ecclesiastical lia, before crowds of m*n who bared m heads and women who made the sign of the cross. 2 Cardinals Lead March. -After them came the represcntatives o} the central government, the munici- pelity, the “constituted corps” such as the magistrates, gencrals, admirals, mayors of nearby townships and patri- otic societies. Six cardinals, in “cappa magna" or oceremonial capes, led the line of march. France was represent-d by their emi- nences of Paris.and Lille, Verdier and Idenart. Belgium was there in the per- 80n of Cardinal Van Roey, Archbishop of Malin<s, successor to the late Cardi- 1 Mercier. Then came princes of the church_from two former enemy coun- trles—Cardinals Seredi, primate of Hun- géry, and Archbishop Piffl of Vienna, primate of Austria. 7As a crowning touch came the P&Re's swn legate, Cardinal Bourne, Archbi og of Westminster and primate of Britis] Catholicism. Flowers Thrown Into River. _After speeches by the mayor of Rouen and other dignitaries the procession wended its way to the Boieldieu Bridge the side of the Seine. Great bouquets the May flowers of Normandy were reverently thrown into the river—the yrlve of the martyred maid—to atone for the scattering of her ashes by the egecutioners in 1431. At twilight the “sacred flame” below Joan’s monument will be rekindled by, the Rousn school children. In the course of the evening the municipality will convey to the French naval cadets a commemorative plaqu® to be affixed to the cruiser Jeanne D'Arc. A torchlight arade, in which heralds in doublet and ose of Joan's century will trumpet forth the tidings of Sunday’s reconstitu- tion of King Charlss VII's entry into Rouen, will terminate the day's celc- bration. _CURTISS WILL FILED MIAMI, Fla., May 30 (#).—Personal holdings, exclusive of real estate or life ifsurance, of the lat> Glenn H.

GALVESTON, Tex., (#).—When_the $500.000 Outpatient Clinic of John Sealy Hospital recently was completed and opened without £o much as a cere- mony. another chapter was written in the history of one of America’s wealth- jest yet least publicized medical insti- tutions.
