Paul VI, Pope
On October 4, 1965, Paul VI made the first papal visit to the Western Hemisphere when he visited the United Nations Headquarters in New York. In chapter two of St. Fidgeta, Bellairs compiles a series of "notes," susposedly "found in the desk of a New York advertising executive" speculating ways to promote subsequent papal visits, noting on the first visit "he acted like something you'd carry through the streets in an Italian village festival. Uncooked pizza has more expression" [St. Fidgeta & Other Parodies, 29].

The son of I.H, Samsonite claims "the Pope endorsed the UN by his visit" [St. Fidgeta & Other Parodies, 49].


Reigned as the 262th pope.
