Priest, Scholastics Sail Soon More Australian Jesuits for India, Catholic Weekly, Sydney, 16 October 1952, p 2, http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article147086730:
Eight more Australian Jesuits will leave soon to join 15 Australian confreres already working on their newly-established mission in India.
The eight Jesuits—one priest and seven scholastics—will sail from Melbourne on the Mooltan on December 6.
The group will be the third contingent of Australian Jesuits to sail for the Indian mission in less than two years.
The first—a group of six—left Australia about Christmas, 1950, and the second band of nine sailed for India last Christmas.
The eight Jesuits chosen to leave on December 6 this year are the Rev. Father Michael Brady, S.J., and the Revs. Peter Coleman, S.J., Philip Crotty, S.J., Hans Hendricks, S.J., Brian O'Connell, S.J., Gavin O'Sullivan, S.J. Oswald Summerton, S.J., and James Thwaites, S.J.
The Revs. James Thwaites and Gavin O'Sullivan will begin their studies in Theology on arrival in India.
After preliminary studies in the Hindi language, the Revs. Oswald Summerton and Brian O'Connell are to do their teaching in the mission college.
The last three, the Revs. Peter Coleman, Philip Crotty and Hans Hendricks will first complete their studies in the Hindi language and then begin their course in philosophy.[...]
