* * * * * The Patron Saint of Television [1] A friend of ours was in town from Mexico City and as a gift she gave Spring [2] and I figurines of St. Clare of Assisi [3], the Patron Saint of Television. She was made such on February 17, 1958 by Pope Pius XII [4]. Spring promptly put the figurines on both television sets in use in the house.
