MAin '4-6200 Chicago, Oct. 6 (VP) The soul of George Cardinal Mundelein, five times absolved, was entrusted to his God today In one of the most majestic ceremonies of the Catholic Church. A hundred bishops prayed that he might rest In peace. The solemn pontifical requiem mass at Holy Name Cathedral for the third Archbishop of Chicago, who died In his sleep last Monday morning, drew many leading American Catholic churchmen and laymen. Only about 2,000 could be crowded Into the Cathedral, but thousands of the faithful gathered outside and along the streets which formed the route of the funeral entourage.

The attire of four bishops charged with giving absolution was black and gold vestments never before worn. They were brought from Rome by Cardinal Mundelein after the election of Pope Pius XII and committed to the care of the cathe dral rector for use on extraordinary occasions. Archbishop Amleto ClcognanL Papal delegate to the United States, was the celebrant of the mass, and Archbishop John J. Cantwell of Los Angeles the preacher. The Cardinal's last resting place was a crypt In the chapel of St.

Mary's of the Lake Seminary at Mundelein, 111. A huge block of black marble to seal the entrance to the crypt bore the Latin epitaph, "I shall await God my Savior." Girl in Lifeboat For Three Nights Tells of Hardships A tale of severe hardships suffered by 20 survivors of the Nor wegian freighter Ronda during two days and three nights In a tiny, overcrowded boat, was told by Joy Allan Duncan, 19, of Richmond, when she arrived at Hoboken today aboard the Holland-America liner Pennland. Miss Duncan was on deck when the Ronda struck a mine off the Holland coast on Sept. 13 and it sank In two minutes, she said, literally going down under her feet. She was almost drawn down by the whirling suction, but managed to keep her head above water and swim clear despite wreckage which constantly banged against her.

She and two 6eamen were taken into the ship's painter, which was built for six and already carried 12 survivors, and after 36 hours they took in five more men who had been clinging to a raft but could not withstand the cold any longer. They had no food or fresh water, were drenched by cold rains at night and burned by a hot sun during the day, until they were rescued by the Italian vessel Providenza. Also among the 591 passengers on the Pennland were Dr. Emil P. Kloeckner of 1144 Bergen a German professor at St.

John's University, with his wife, his son Alfred, 13, and his sister-in-law, Miss Frances Feurser. Ernest Marciano Ernest Marciano, a barber who was in business at 405 Church Ave. for 32 years, died yesterday in the Kings County Hospital, where he underwent an operation last Sun day. He was born in Italy 61 years ago, and lived in this country for more than 50 years. He was one of the original members of the West Flatbush Civic League, which held its early meetings in his store.

Surviving are his widow, Maria, and three sons, Alfred, William and Ern est Marciano Jr. The funeral will be held from the home with a solemn requiem mass at 11 a.m. tomorrow in the Immaculate Heart of Mary R. C. Church.

Burial will be In St. John's Cemetery. Albert II. Tolkamp Special to the Brooklyn Eagle Freeport, Oct. 6 Albert H.

Bergdoll's Prison Term 'Terribly Long' to Son Philadelphia, Oct.

6 if) Two little gills In blond pigtails and their 12-year-old brother are woebegone and slightly puzzled by Orover Cleveland Bergdoll's conviction as a military desetter. They are the eldest of the World War draft dodger's five children, and the decision of a court martial in New York yesterday means that "Daddy" won't be with them for at least seven years.

Cosmas Shaughnessy, re-, treat director of the Bishop Molloy Retreat House, who told the more i than 200 delegates from many parts of the nation that the conference would concern itself with spiritual affairs and not with the materialistic controversies raging over the world. Following the services, the delegation returned to headquarters at the St. George Hotel where at 1 o'clock Peter P. Prunty, national president, called the convention to order. Guert speaker was Secretary of State Michael F.

Walsh, who spoke on "The Necessity and Advantages of a Central Organization for Closed Retreats." Mr. Walsh In urging a greater retreat movement in the United States, stipulated as a goal for the league "a closed retreat house for men in every diocese and a retreat for men from every parish and Catholic organization and with a strength born of unity to work toward that goal." He recalled that the first Catholic retreat house was opened in the United States in 1911 and that 86 others have been opened since then. Mrs. Martin Larsen Special to the Brooklyn Eagle Merrick.
