Title: Dr. King wins Nobel Peace Prize.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-31714 DR. KING WINS NOBEL PEACE PRIZE ATLANTA, Ga. -- Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., who has led the non-violent movement for civil rights in America for some ten years, was named to receive the 1964 Nobel Peace Prize. The noted Baptist minister received the news from his wife by phone while at St. Joseph’s Infirmary, a Catholic hospital in Atlanta, where he had gone for a physical check-up. He said that “every penny” of the award money -- expected to be more than $54,000 -- would go for the civil rights movement. Dr. King is founder and president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, dedicated to promoting equal rights for all Negroes. He is the second American Negro and the youngest person -- at 35 -- to win the Nobel Peace Prize. In September, Dr. King was received by Pope Paul VI in private audience at the Vatican.

Title: Industrial chaplain.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: INDUSTRIAL CHAPLAIN #3619 TOCCOA, Ga. -- When his application to become a Navy chaplain was rejected shortly after Pearl Harbor, the Rev. Elliott N. Lindblad decided to become an “Industrial Chaplain,” counseling and serving the “soldiers of the production line.” Late in 1941 he became chaplain at the LeTourneau Company here. Photo shows him (right) discussing a problem with one of the LeTourneau employees. His work during the war was so effecting in curbing absenteeism and improving the morale of the workers that the company has carried his program over into the reconversion period. He conducts daily chapel services at the plant and visits the employees’ homes when they are sick. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (BW-AT-JOUR-MES-5D-6-W-D)

Title: Chaplain serves training school inmates.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-31415 CHAPLAIN SERVES TRAINING SCHOOL INMATES ATLANTA, Ga. -- Stuffed animals and dolls made by inmates at the Georgia Training School for Girls at Atlanta, Ga., are admired by Chaplain Joe E. Caldwell, director of counseling for the Georgia Association for Pastoral Care. In addition to his ministry to the young women, the chaplain instructs area seminary students planning to enter the counseling field. While the seminarians' questions are "not so basic" as those of the training school inmates, he says, all of the young people express deep concern over "right and wrong courses in life." Chaplain Caldwell, a Methodist clergyman, formerly was chaplain and supervisor of clinical pastoral training at the Topeka, Kan., Boys' Industrial School.
