Title: Czech Catholics give thanks to Virgin Mary.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: #1017 CZECH CATHOLICS GIVE THANKS TO VIRGIN MARY PRAGUE -- Catholics in Prague held a week of thanksgiving to the Virgin Mary for the protection of the Czechoslovakian people during the war. Festivities centered around the Palladium, a bronze and jeweled medal of the Virgin and Child worn by St. Wenceslas, protector of Czechoslovakia, but lost for 200 years after his martyrdom in 929. Shown speaking at outdoor services is Prior Jerolimek [sic. Jarolimek] of the Premonstratensian monastery of Strahov, who is expected by many to be named the Archbishopric of Prague, vacant since 1941. Second from the left is a Jesuit priest, Father Kolacek, who was imprisoned by the Germans in Dachau concentration camp. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (EZ-LM-11-15-5)
