Song of the Dove. On the anniversary last week, Bishop Théas celebrated Mass on the steps of the old basilica, before Pierre Cardinal Gerlier, Archbishop of Lyons, 17 visiting bishops (two from the U.S.†), and a sprinkling of politicians, including Italy's former Premier Amintore Fanfani. Bishop Théas read the gradual for the day: "The flowers have appeared in our land, the time of pruning is come; the song of the dove is heard in our land. Arise, my love, my beautiful one, and come, my dove in the clefts of the rock...

Among Martine's previewers was a church group who reported to Pierre Cardinal Gerlier, archbishop of Lyon. Wrote the cardinal in his religious weekly: "The lowly and licentious film entitled Un Caprice de Caroline Chérie . . . is a scandalous display of vice." On church doors throughout France Caroline Chérie got a five rating on the Index of forbidden films: to be seen neither by adults nor children. Said Martine: "I'm flabbergasted! And what do they think about Mary Magdalene?" Author Cecil Saint-Laurent accused the church of yielding to Anglo-Saxon standards of prudery...
