SALVADOR, Brazil (AP) -
Pope John Paul II had to take
refuge in a bus today when
thousands of barefooted slum
dwellers mobbed around him in
this northeastern Brazilian city. ■
Vatican and local prelates
formed a quick protective
cordon around John Paul after
security arrangements in this
foul-smelling shantytown of
130,000 people broke down.
Only one little girl actually
managed to grab the pope - for
an instant — and the pontiff’s
white cassock was spattered
with mud as he moved to escape
the surging throng. The pope
ducked into a bus reserved for
the papal party.
The pope had gone to a small
church in Salvador’s Alagados
slum, a collection of miserable
shanties on stilts above a
stinking bay and one of the most
wretched spots in the entire
Western Hemisphere.
The slum dwellers chanted;
“John Paul is our voice,” as the
pope began the eighth day of his
exhaustive 12-day pilgrimage to
die world’s biggest Catholic
country.
The local sound system failed
to work, however, and disap-
pointed slum residents who
could not hear the pope’s words

attempt to get closer to him.
In view of the precarious
security, the pope skipped a
prepared speech. He said just a
few words and then descended
the church stairs and headed
for the safety of the bus. *
Meanwhile, followers of
candomble, northeast Brazil’s
popular spiritist cult, are upset
because the pope is ignoring
them during his visit to this
center of their form of
Christianity.
“The Catholic Church
benefited from candomble,”
said Eduardo Mangabeira Jr.,
whose father runs one of the
cult’s marfy temples in Brazil’s
first colonial capital and still
speaks the Yoruba tongue of his
Nigerian slave forebears. “Now
it turns its back on us, although
we consider ourselves
Christians.”
The candomblists are upset
because the pope is not making
the climb up the steps of Our
Lord of Bonfim, Salvador’s
most popular Catholic church,
which thousands of Brazilians
make in repayment for prayers
answered or for elimination of
the "evil eye.”
Instead “the mountain is
coming to Mohammed,” said
Mangabeira. The statue of
Bonfim was to be presented to
the pope during an open-air
Mass today and a woman in folk
costume was to carry fruit to
the altar during the offertory to
the sound of drums used during
candomble ceremonies.
Candomble was brought to
Brazil by West African slaves
and practiced in tandem with
Christianity when the Por-
tuguese colonialists forced the
Africans to convert to Roman
Catholicism.
While the Vatican considers
Brazil the largest Catholic
country in the world and counts
104 million of the 123 million
Brazilians as Catholics, the
national bishops’ conference
admits that as many as 80
percent of the total population
revere “private saints” not
recognized by the church.
Near the lush tropical beach
or in the wretched swamp
slums of Salvador, hundreds of
drums thump out the can-
domble beat every night,
calling down the “orixas” or
spirits identified with Roman
Catholic saints.
When they were forced to
convert to Catholicism, the
slaves coupled each of the
spirits they had looked to with a
Roman Catholic saint. Ogum,
god of iron and of war, became
St. Anthony. Oxossi, god of the
hunters, became St. George, the
dragon slayer. Oba, goddess of
the rivers, became St. Joan of
Arc.
Cleaned and checked
Ray Griffin, member of a Texas Power & Light Company test
crew, cleans up a meter before re-installing it. The crews have
been in the area for almost three weeks doing a complete check
of all utility meters and wittbe here until the check is completed.
A supervisor with the crew said that most meters are found to be
accurate with only one in several hundred found to be defective
— and those are usually running too slow. J.P. Shull, TP&L
district manager, said the members of the crews all wear TP&L
uniforms and hard hats with the company logo and will have
identification cards with a color picture of the bearer. Shull said
that if any residents have questions about a crew member, they
may call the local TP&L office at 885-3107 for verification or
answers about the procedures. The meter test crews are ex-
pected to be in the area until about the first of September.

Gas lines launch
oil Pearl Harbor
NEW YORK (AP) - Last
summer’s gasoline lines were
“the Pearl Harbor of energy,”
and Americans responded with
a conservation drive that has
produced “very substantial
progress” toward independence
from foreign oil, says Energy
Secretary Charles W. Duncan.
During an optimistic
evaluation Sunday of the
nation’s energy situation,
Duncan said on ABC-TV’s
“Issues and Answers” program
that crude oil imports dropped
25 percent in the four weeks
ending June 30.
American consumption of
foreign oil during the first five
months of the year was down 8.1
percent compared to the same
period last year, Duncan said.
He said that was due to an in-
crea^dt. awareness of the
general public to

Three accidents mar
area holiday scene
Three persons escaped
serious injury in Fourth of July
weekend accidents in Hopkins
County.
The first accident of the
holiday weekend was reported
at 7:38 p.m. Saturday at the
intersection of two county roads
located east of FM-269.
Holly Neal, 27, was taken by
private vehicle to Memorial
Hospital where Emergency
Room officials reported that he
was treated and released.
DPS Trooper Roger Maynard
investigated the accident.
Sunday at 12:30 a.m., A 1979
pickup driven by Bernard
Vaughn, 24, of 300 Front St.
went out of control in the 600
block of College Street and
struck a utility pole, according
to SSPD Patrolman Mark
Young.
Young said that Vaughn
reported that he had tried to
avoid a car that pulled out in
front of him, causing the ac-
cident.
Vaughn was taken by private
vehicle to Memorial Hospital
where he was treated and
released.
Just a short time later, DPS
Trooper Joel McKinney was
called to an accident scene on
SH-11.
The accident reportedly
occurred about 3:43 a.m. about
5.4 miles west of Sulphur
Springs, near Gafford’s Chapel.
Ben Chapel of Oklahoma was
taken to Memorial Hospital and
then transferred to L.P.
McQuistion Regional Medical
Center in Paris.
Paris hospital officials said
that Chapel was later treated
and released.

problem.
“The gasoline lines we ex-
perienced in May and June of
1979 might be called the Pearl
Harbor of energy because
people began to say that we
really have a problem,” he
said. “The average American
thinks today that we have to
move with conservation.”
He said rising prices were a
factor in the conservation drive,
but he added that home in-
sulation and more efficient cars
were also influential.
The effectiveness of the
conservation drive has made
the national economy less
vulnerable to an Arab oil em-
bargo, Duncan said.
He added that these in-
dicators give him hope that the
nation’s daily oil imports for
this year would average 7
million barrels a day, down

year. •
