Restor-a'tidh of Exeter's civic pride a sprawling grey Stone cathedral built in the 12th century and damaged "by a German bomb in i9'42 is proceeding rapidly under 'guidance, of experts, financed by donations from local churchfblk and people dutslde the church. To these who have spent their lives among the wooded hills and valleys of Devonshire's capital city, bombing of the cathedral -was a major crime. Said a young Exeter soldier writing home from a training camp: "We'll et even with them for that!" Now the city alms to raise C75.C0O ($300,003) from donations and benefit concerts and each week Exeter's daily newspapev publishes a full colum of new sutecrSSers. Striking St. James' Chapel on the south side of the cathedral, the bomb not only destroyed two .flying buttresses and the chapel but ''blasted into, fragments a great deal of, medieval oak carving. As the stability of the building was threatened, the dean . V 1 '. arm encpter were granted a ypecial 'licence for immediate repair work. Evsn so it was some time bsfore one of the buttresses could be reconnected to the main wall. The other will b2 back in position soon. Some ingenuity, is being used in restoring woodwork which, to an untrained eye, seems beyond repair. From tons of shattered ".tone and broken wood which fell Into the choir, Herbert Read, benevolent grey-haired sculptor, is picking out wooden fragments, however minute, discarding broken chairlegs and other valueless modern deibris and classifying what is ancient and bf arMstlc value. Go far about 12,000 pieces have been collected and stored in wObden cases in readiness for the day when they can be restored. Mr. Read's assistants are three trained carvers who, like himself, are specialists not concerned with ordinary house building. Restoration of the nth-century organ case now is completed. So is that of the choir stalls, comparatively modern Work designed by Gilbert Scott in the 19th century. The organ Itself and seme early 14th-century misericord seats had, like the bishop's throne, been removed berore the .bomibing. Mo..t difficult task is reconstructing some 15th-centuryoak screens. Four were destroyed and of one of them in the entrance to St. James' Chapel not a single splinter was found.
