On Sunday, Sept. 22, the nation's churchgoers joined in memorial services for four Negro girls who died when a bomb blasted a Negro Baptist church in Birmingham. here, at St. Dominic's Roman Catholic church, the more than 2,500 attending services overflowed the building. They fell to their knees on the sidewalk during a Mass offered for the dead children. The priest wore vestments in the "red of martyrdom" instead of the black of mourning.
