Zealous Religious Leaders Inspire Students After serving the Tucson diocese for nearly forty years, Archbishop Daniel Cercke re- tired from active duty two years ago. He received the title of archbishop from Pope Iohn XXIII in I960. Bishop Green has a weighty assign nient, for he has complete supervi- sion over the Diocese of Tucson, consisting of 300,000 Catholics in an area of 52,369 square miles. Bishop Francis J.
