He was at a loss to describe adequately the scene which took place on Friday night during the Eucharistic Holy Hour, held in Varsity Stadium. The staff announcer for CBG confessed inabil- ity to picture the scene that he was beholding to his .air audience, se magnificent and awe inspiring it was to him. and entirely without precedent in the city of Toronto or in Iris ex- perience. as a broadcaster. Perhaps the most colorful . feature of • the whole evening, was the effect created when the Holy Name men and boys, just before chorusing their Holy Name pledge, lighted wax tapers and held them aloft. The glittering flame appearing almost simultaneously in every seat and corner of the huge stadium, was a sight never to be for- gotten by anyone who had the rare privilege of witnessing' it. It was estimated that more than 16,000 jam - ed the stadium for this feature. About three hundred war veterans formed a guard of honor for the Blessed Sacrament and a small army of De La Salle cadets stood at .attention while their bugle corps sotmded a salute during the Benediction. His Excellency The Most Rev. Joseph Ryan, Bishop of Hamilton, preached. the sermon on this occasion, which was broadcast over a national hook- up. Saturday night the Royal York hotel, was the centre of Holy Name activities, when more than twelve hundred guests, including, high dig- nitaries of Church anci state, sat down to a banquet tendered to His Excellency the Apostolic Delegate, Hilderbrande Antoniutti. Premier Mitchell F. Hepburn, due to an un- fortunate illness, was unable to be present, but he sent a warm message of welcome to the Apostolic Delegate, and pledged the support of his Gov- ernment to the lofty aims and ideals of the Holy .
