Description: Text transcribed from caption: ATOMIC ENERGY HARNESSED #3643 Under direction of the War Department, the combined efforts of science, industry, and labor have culminated in the production of the atomic bomb, the most potent weapon in military history. Research and manufacture of the bomb was a closely guarded secret. Three plants, located in isolated areas of Tennessee, New Mexico, and Washington were so compartmentalized that workers had no knowledge of the finished product. On August 5th the first bomb was dropped on Japan and the secret revealed to the world. At Oak Ridge, Tennessee, a government-owned and operated city was established to accommodate construction workers, plant operators, and their immediate families, the city containing all religious, recreational, educational and all other facilities of a modern small city. Here is a view of a section of the town, a chapel in the foreground, business section and dormitories in the rear. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO

Title: "Irish Travelers" return to Memphis.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: ‘IRISH TRAVELERS’ RETURN TO MEMPHIS #c-3443 MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- For 75 years bands of roving horse traders traveled through the South, descendants of Irish who had emigrated from County Mayo in the early 1800s. Although they were commonly referred to as gypsies, the more enlightened Southerners called them “Irish Travelers.” Each year they came to Memphis for one day to hold their weddings and funerals. Although the advent of the automobile saw many of them leave the road, they still follow the business of horse trading throughout many towns of the South -- and gather in Memphis once a year. Here five couples kneel before the altar of St. Thomas church in a quintuple wedding. The five couples are (left to right): John J. Riley and Ann Theresa Carroll; James Carroll and Ann Theresa Riley; John Costello and Marie Costello (no relation); John Costello, a first cousin of the previous John Costello, and Mary Marie Carroll; Thomas Nelson and Betty Riley. Youngest attendant at the wedding was eight-month-old “Red” Nelson. The oldest was his great-grandfather, 87-year-old “Red” Nelson, a son of one of the original immigrants.

Located in the village of Carroll Hollow, near here, it was until recently a roadside grist mill where the neighboring farmers brought their wheat and corn to be ground. But they thought it more important to have a church. So a small, white cross replaced a business sign over the doorway and the hut was immediately converted to the service of God.

Title: Project Concern.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-46285 PROJECT CONCERN CLARKRANGE, Tenn. -- Dr. James Turpin, a former ministerial student, has become a major personality in the field of health care. A native of Ashland, Ky., Dr. Turpin attended Emory University’s Candler School of Theology, a United Methodist institution, planning to enter the minister. But he found this was not where he should be. Still wanting to find a place of ministry to the needs of mankind, the entered Emory’s School of Medicine and earned an M.D. He soon found his place. While practicing in California, Dr. Turpin became aware of the medical needs of the people living in Tijuana, Mexico’s, slums, so on weekends began giving assistance at a small charity clinic there. His interest in providing medical care for the disadvantaged grew and in 1961 he founded Project Concern. A year later the first Project Concern out-patient clinic was established in a disease-infested ghetto of Kowloon, Hong Kong, where more than 20,000 populated a six-square-block area. That beginning sparked what is today one of the leading private-sector health-care organizations in the world. Project Concern treats more than 500,000 persons annually, providing a full range of medical and dental services to impoverished people in the U.S. and abroad.

Title: Project Concern.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-46285 PROJECT CONCERN CLARKRANGE, Tenn. -- Dr. James Turpin, a former ministerial student, has become a major personality in the field of health care. A native of Ashland, Ky., Dr. Turpin attended Emory University’s Candler School of Theology, a United Methodist institution, planning to enter the minister. But he found this was not where he should be. Still wanting to find a place of ministry to the needs of mankind, the entered Emory’s School of Medicine and earned an M.D. He soon found his place. While practicing in California, Dr. Turpin became aware of the medical needs of the people living in Tijuana, Mexico’s, slums, so on weekends began giving assistance at a small charity clinic there. His interest in providing medical care for the disadvantaged grew and in 1961 he founded Project Concern. A year later the first Project Concern out-patient clinic was established in a disease-infested ghetto of Kowloon, Hong Kong, where more than 20,000 populated a six-square-block area. That beginning sparked what is today one of the leading private-sector health-care organizations in the world. Project Concern treats more than 500,000 persons annually, providing a full range of medical and dental services to impoverished people in the U.S. and abroad.

Title: Brings greetings from 'Philadelphia 11.'
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-46625 BRINGS GREETINGS FROM ‘PHILADELPHIA 11’ NASHVILLE -- Suzanne Hiatt, one of the 11 Episcopal women whose ordinations to the priesthood in Philadelphia last July were ruled invalid by the Episcopal hierarchy, brings greetings from the 11 women to the National Consultation of Ordained Women in the United Methodist Church, held at Scarritt College in Nashville. Ms. Hiatt asked for financial support to help meet expenses incurred in attempts to win recognition of the Philadelphia orders. She also urged the women to “work to get district superintendents and bishops elected in the United Methodist Church from among your own number.” Between 150 and 200 of the United Methodist women ministers attending the meeting called on their denomination, and especially the bishops, to recognize and support the Episcopal women. In a petition circulated at the consultation, bishops were urged to invite the 11 women to become full ministers in the United Methodist Church. The Nashville meeting brought together 300 of the 500 ordained women in the 10-million-member denomination. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (C-NAS-1C-75-DS)
