2.30 Let Me Speak: Jesuit Novices
Young people face Malcolm Muggeridge in a discussion on their beliefs.

'I will take a vow of Poverty, to renounce all ownership and to use things just as they are given me. I'll take a vow of Chastity, a pledge to love God totally which will forgo any joy of married life, and I will take a vow of Obedience - a total giving of self to God and a doing of his will as it is shown to me through the mouth of a human and fallible Superior'.
(First transmission on July 25)
