(IB — Samuel Michael Berman, 54, a South Bend, Ind., fuel dealer who was active in St. Joseph County Democratic politics, drowned Thursday while fishing with two companions on Huron Bay in Lake Superior near here. Berman was in a 16-foot boat with St. Joseph County Prosecutor Patrick Brennan, 41, and former South Bend policeman Richard Stickley, 45, when a wave hit the boat and it capsized. Brennan told authorities he and Berman were trapped underneath the overturned boat and Stickley was thrown clear. He said he swam to the surface from under the boat and Stickley grabbed Berman by the hand to aid him. But Berman panicked and slipped from Stickley’s grasp back under the boat. Brennan and Stickley towed the craft to a nearby sandbar and pulled Berman from underneath. Stickley applied artificial respiration for more than an hour in a futile attempt to revive Berman. The two then walked several miles through dense woods to seek aid. Berman was a candidate for St. Joseph County Democratic chairman two weeks ago. He was defeated by John Montgomery.

Misiones and Sant Cruz—presently afe on maneuvers in Golfo Gulf. “On May 21, when the destroyers were on routine runs practicing with underwater listening devices northwest of the small port of Puerto Cracker, they heard a submarine navigating submerged. “As usual in these cases within our territorial waters, the ,destroyers successfully made four antisubmarinc attacks with depth charges. “During this operation, a periscope was seen, and, after the attacks, there were oil slicks on the surface of the sea such as occur when a submarine is damaged. “Searches were made continually until Thursday afternoon without avail. Two conclusions can be deduced from this: Either the damaged submarine eluded the attackers or else it Was sunk." Frondizi added that a full investigation now is under way and its findings will be published as soon as

Celebrate Major Religious Holiday Christians, Jews < Observe Holidays By LOUIS CASSELS United Press Staff Correspondent Christians and Jews throughout the world will celebrate major religions holidays this week end. The Christian holiday, which falls on Sunday, is called Pentecost or Whitsunday. The Jewish holiday, which begins at sunset Saturday, is called Shavuos. Although Pentecost has held an honored place on the Christian calendar for several centuries longer than Christmas, and Shavuos was an ancient festival before the first Chanukah, both of the older holidays have fallen into neglect in modern times. Today there are many Christians who do riot know what Pentecost is all about, and many Jews who have only a vague idea of the meaning of Shavuos. Actually, Shavuos has religious significance for Christians as well as Jews. It commemorates the giving of the Ten Commandments.

Date Fixed According to Jewish tradition, Moses rpcieved the Ten Commandments on Mount Sinai seven weeks after the children of Isael began their exodus from captivity in Egypt Hence the date of Shavuos always falls exactly seven weeks after Passover. In some Jewish temples, Shavuos is now a popular occasion for confirmation services. Boys and girls who have completed their elementary religious education take public vows to uphold the ideals of Judaism, and receive formal blessings from their rabbis. Pentecost, celebrated seven weeks after Easter, is often referred to as “the birthday of the Christian Church.” It commemorates the gift of the Holy Spirit to the first Christian apostles. The new testament records tha Jesus promised his disciples, a the end of his post-resurrection appearances to them, that they would receive power from God to carry out their assigned mission of speading the Gospel “unto the uttemost part of the earth.” There were only about 120 Christian believers then, and they were hiding from the authorities in Jerusalem. The idea that they would go out and preach to the whole world must have seamed very far-fetched to them. Apostles Gathered Tradition says that the first Pentecost found the leaders of the .litfle Christian 12 ( apostles - gathered in an upper room in Jerusalem. The second chapter of Acts is not that specific; it simply says they were “all with one accord in one place.’’ “And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting And thee appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. “And they were all filled with - 'the- .'Hoiy i '--Gh<»t,'->-'and--“‘beg'a«»'-‘’ to speak with other tongues ...” Many modern biblical scholars believe that this vivid account was intended to be symbolic. They say the apostles underwent a spiritual experience so movihg that they afterwards used the most graphic metaphors to describe it. Fundamentalists take the passage as a literal description of what happened in the upper room.

Truman Calls For Democrat Victory Opens Congressional Campaign Thursday CHICAGO (W — Former President Truman Thursday night opened the Democrats’ congressional campaign with a freewheeling attack on the Republicans for “alienating our allies, stripping our national defense and puncturing world prosperity.” The 74-year-old ex-President, although in a fighting mood, appeared to lack some of his customary zip in his address before 2.600 party faithful,at a SIOO-a-plate fundraising dinner. He called for the overwhelming election of a Democratic congress to “save the country’’ from an administration that “is dedicated to doing nothing at all—or only half enough.” Truman charged the Eisenhower administration is running the nation's foreign affairs like an "overbearing banker with a glasseye.” On the home front, he said, the GOP has achieved both recession and inflation at the same time. Truman and his wife planned to leave Chicago for New York by train Friday afternoon.. The Trufcians have reservations to sail from New York next Monday on a Mediterranean cruise aboard the liner S.
