This is the Franciscan Calendar -- I believe some of the Beati have since (1975, when the book was copyright) been canonized, but I'm not sure which ones (except St Maximilian Kolbe (14-Aug), so I "upgraded" him). When no indicator is present, the celebration is an optional memorial. Thomas McGinnis (tfm+Catholic@CMU.EDU)
