THAT aJI.INIi MOMENTThat blind moment that oc­

curs after a car with dazzling headlights has passed Is easily explainable. It Is owing to the fact that the pupil of the eye, dilated by the darkness of night has contracted enormously as a result of exposure, to the bright ray of the other car's light The contraction, which occui at 60 times the speed of dila lion, 'is such as to result in tern ponny blindness.

Rome's church singers were fi organized into choral groups un­ der Pope Sylvester I.

Under the direction of Rt, Rev. Msgr. Licinlo Refice, one of the world's fotvmost conduc tor-composers of .liturgical mu sic, the choir--composed of 60 selected voices- will offer a pro­ gram of the shcred music of thi Catholic as well as the Jewish and English speaking churches.

Of the 60 voices in the choir, 24 are boys ranging in ages from 8 to 15, while the rest at« adults. They were brought to­ gether from all over Italy, hav­ ing been selected for the- excel­ lent quality of their voices.

The choir is made up of voices that sing regularly in the lour major basilicas In the Va­ tican City: St. Peter, St. John

an, Santa Maria Muggiore and the Slstinc Chapel.

The members of the choir aiv colonnl group, appearing on

stage in the surplices and cas identical to those they orn in Vatican choir lofta

"voce bianche," or trebcl i'c, is as old as the Roinaj
