Synopsis:
The usual collection of continuing serials, informative features and gag strips that entertained and edified Catholic school students in 1964.
Notes:
The cover features a photograph of Michelangelo's Pieta. The inside cover notes that the statue of Mary holding the dead body of Jesus is currently on display at the 1964 New York World's Fair.
Synopsis: An eight-page beautifully illustrated biography of Michelangelo with an emphasis on his creating the Pieta and the statue of David.
Notes: This story was perhaps inspired by the popularity of THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY, Irving Stone's fictionalized biography of Michelangelo that was made into a movie in 1965 starring Charlton Heston and Rex Harrison.
Synopsis: A near-crash averted, the Pettigrew plane arrives in Philadelphia for the National Convention. Very informative on the procedures and backroom dealings that occur leading up to a presidential election.
Notes: A six-page chapter in the continuing saga looking ahead to the bicentenniel 1976 presidential race and the story of Governor Pettigrew's bid for the nation's top office.
