1962 Missal Question

For the liturgy, "through which the work of our redemption is accomplished," (1) most of all in the divine sacrifice of the Eucharist, is the outstanding means whereby the faithful may express in their lives, and manifest to others, the mystery of Christ and the real nature of the true Church.

Ruben, here is your answer.
That just means that there is no proper Saint for those days. If that is the case, then the Mass would come from the current week in the season, ie for this year, the 22nd, 23rd, and 24th would be within the Octave after the Ascension.

Usually if there isn't a proper Saint, the Mass will come from the previous Sunday or the priest may choose to do one of the many votive Masses that are available in the Extraordinary Form.
I knew Chris, Roman Sacristan, would have the answer :)
