inmates lost their lives, according to the prosecution. But Bednarek did more, the charges said. The prosecution said Bednarek beat one inmate to death, helped kill eight others and, on one bitterl? cold winter day, doused some prisoners with coid water and then forced them to stand naked outdoors until they froze. The allegations also said that when the Russian army approached Auschwitz in 1944, Bednarek helped kill 10 screaming Jewisn women in the, drive to shove them into the gas chambers. He allegedly killed one prisoner with a shovel. Deserted to Germans A member of the Polish army at the start of World War 11. Eednarek deserted to the Germans.

POPE PAUL (Continued from Page One) was born, grew up, died, and was resurrected. He held the first religious summit talks with an Eastern patriarch in 910 v A .-, ing with Athenagoras that their encounter “may be the sign and prelude of things to come.” Appeal for Peace In a farewell statement at Amman Airport, the pont ts used the words of his namesake, St. Paul, in what appeared to be an appeal for peace in the bitter Israeli-Arab dispute. “Forever in our heart we shall bear the consoling memories of this humble visit to the holy places, and of the warm welcome extended to us by the inhabitants of this sacred land,” he said. “May God reward them, may he wipe away their tears, and grant them peace; prosperity, and happiness,, “In the words which the apostle used to the Christiana of Ephesus, in bidding them farewell, we also ‘commend you to God and to the word of his grace., who is able to bull 4 , up. add to give the inheritance among all the sanctified,’ ” he added. “And, as he wrote to the same Ephesians. we exhort you: ‘Let all bitterness, and wrath, and indignation, and ..clamor, and reviling, be removed from you along with aft malice.. On the contrary, be kind to one another, and merciful, forgiving one another, as God in Christ has generously forgiven you.’ ” The pontiff was up before dawn on the final day of his pilgrimage. He drove to Bethlehem, the town of Jesus’ birth, to pray and to appeal for Christian unity — _______ Issues Peace Messages He . als? Issued peace messages to .224 world leaders. Jordan Radio reported, appealing to the heads of governments and of organizations to work with all their power so “Lnat peace shall prevail in the world.” He knelt together in prayer with the 77-year-old patriarch in an emotional meeting emphasizing the things the longdivided branches of the church have in common. “Both sides acknowledged the great significance of this even and have given thanks to almighty God,” a Vatican communique said. Further talks were planned in the attempt to bridge the nine-century gap between the Roman and Constantiople churches. The Pope, first to visit the ; Holy Land, toured the sites ‘ which tradition says are those ‘ of the birth of Jesus, of the miracles of the loaves and fishes, the transfiguration, the annunciation, the crucifixion, ] and the resurrection. He crossed between Israeli , and Jordanian territory but ‘ steered clear of their political j disputes except for his farewell peace statement.

March of Dimes Lends a Hand, To Silence Childs Tormentors

' When Lori Nelson blew out the candles on her fourthbirthday cake recently, it seemed that every youngster her age in Rosalie, Neb,, turned out for her party. Only a few months before, the remarkably pretty child had been the butt of taunts and giggles from these same chilren. Lori was born with a rare birthmark—a thick, unsightly covering of hair extending from her right shoulder to mid-fore-arm. Instead of finding playmates among the other boys and girls, all she ever encountered were finger-pointers and name-callers. Lori found these gibes, when scarcely out of infancy and the crib, more than any sensitive child could endure. So did her parents, Marlene and Chester Nelson, an attractive farming couple, who for almost three years searched unsuccessfully for a medical answer to the problem. Brother Also Heartsick Also heartsick was David, 6, Lori’s brother, who more than once came home with a black eye because he fought all the heartless kids in town who poked fun at his “hairy” sister. “Chester and I were almost out of our minds with this terrible affliction,” the mother explained. “Lori, a frightened and confused little girl, withdrew into a shell. The present picture was painful enough, but my husband and I looked with dread into the future when our pretty child, like any young woman, would want to go to dances and have dates and fun and, in time, a husband and family. “No one gave us any reason for hope. Then I read someplace that the March of Dimes was planning a birth defects eenter in Omaha. We were waiting at the door when itjopened a y ear and a half ago.” The center, supported by March of Dimes contributions from chapters throughout Nebraska, is at Children’s Memorial Hospital and is directed by Dr. Theodore R. Pfundt, chairman of the pediatrics department of Creighton University School of Medicine. It is one of 48 such centers across the nation. « Dr. Pfundt consulted with Dr.

But later on by high-speed planing and tattooing, the arm will be normal in appearance —and by the time she is in high school Lori will have difficulty remembering which arm exhibited this perverse quirk of nature.” Mrs. Nelson was selected as the Nebraska March of Dimes Mother for 1963.
