of support for unity at services in various churches last week.

The feeling, of coi:lfidence is !;lased on an ex­ cellent laity response at services conducted in several communities within the. confines of the Fall River Diocese.

Some have observed that the 'grass root' en­ thusiasm is running as high, if not higher, as any section in the entire nation.

Congregations taxed the capacity of several churches of differing denominations from Mans­ field in the northern part of the diocese to Den­ nis on Cape Cod. Most Rev. James L. Connolly, Bishop of Fall River, a leader in the ecumenical movement, will bring the octave, of prayer for unity to a close tonight when he speaks to a congregation at the Episcopal Church of Our Saviour in Somerset.

WASHINGTON (NC) - The , U. S. Navy chief of chaplains, Rear Adm. James W. Kelly, a Baptist, believes there is "a deep religious concern" on the part of U. S. military-personnel in Vietnam.

"In all of my 26 years in the miUtary community," Adm. Kelly has observed. "I have never before seen this concern so mature and expressed with such depth. There is a definite search for, and expression of, a dynamic and' vital faith in God. "It is evident," the; Navy chaplain chief continued, "from church attendance and counsel­ ing interviews, in courage, brav­ ery, good will,' loyalty, and through people relating to peo-

Kelly said that in the Vietnam theater of operations "more people are going to c~urch on a Sunday-to-Sunday basis than back home." The chaplain chief estimated that of the U. S, military personnel in Vietnam, nearly 90 per cent (about 400,000) belong to the 18-25 age group.

Out of this numb'er, he said, about 18 per cent attend reli­ gious services on Sundays and 'holy days.

"Back home," he added, "the percentage is smaller-about 14

The Admiral expressed his gratitude to the churches of America for providing military chaplains of high caliber and he commended the chaplains them­ selves lEor "giving a fine minis­ try to the young men and wom­ en of the armed services overseas." ' There are in Vietnam today 110 chaplains attached to Navy and Marine Corps units ashore.

This is the heaviest concentra­ tion of Navy chaplains ever commited to shore combat in a single geographical area, the Naval Personnel Bureau's eccle­ siastical public affairs section has announced.

The council's Yearbook quoted the 1967' edition of the Official Catholic Directory, and stated. that the new total reflects aq increase over 1965 of 6]8,735 or 1.3 per cent and just 0.2 percent more that the general popu)a­ tion increase.

The latest information com­ piled by the National Council of Churches reveals' that churoh membership in the U.S. is up just under' one per cent over' figures reported a year ago. 'The total given is 125,778,656 coni-, pared to 124,682,422 recorded' last year.

The Yearbook qualifies mem­ bership and other church statis-, tics by pointing out that ·they , "are not all current but are the latest available." It warns the 'reader not' to consider them , more than "a general indication" , of 'church membership.

If You're Victim of Virus, Don't Share Your Germs

By Mary Tinley Daly

This German blessing, meaning. "soundness" or iIi our Irish household after every sneeze.

The proverbial "thief in the night" is no more sudden, unexpected and unwelcome than the bug,' by whatever name it goes this early 1968. diately respond, called up his "Why; you have Asian flu," reserves: the M.D. and the R.N. promptly diagnosed the Head iIi our familYL who coolly took of the house, who has been over. So, from folklore medi­ ~ealth," resounds

'T h e go-to-bed bit was perfect.

Indeed, there is no alternative when you ache in every bone, are shivery and at. the same time feverish, have a don't-care Dumbness permeating every sense. , But meals? The very thought was repulsive. There was a BOundless hope he'd forget ~ll about meals, even the tea-andtoast variety. As to the "medicine" he was preparing downo lltairs, it didn't really matter.

Sure enough, shortly therelifter it appeared, rock-n-rye:_ the old-fashioned rock sugar' candy my grandmother used to keep on hand at all times and that now, can be procured only In the gourmet sections' of elite grocery stores, with rje whig­ key and hot water pOured over it.,

One of the ~eatments worked, or a combination of the two.

"Well, at least Asian flu is over!" I rejoiced, prematurely.

"Mom, that's not flu," Markie, our nurse,' laughed. ''They've analyzed this virus and find it's not flu at 'all. Asian flu will be due in about a month!"

Ugh, 80 this is just the fore­ runner of real Asian flu-like the alewives, those fish' which precede the arrival of the: shad each Spring? Whatever this virus is, it's nothing 10 court, rather a pklgue to be dodged; Stay Bome!

According to reports, this virus is taking its' toll &very­ where: scl:Jools half empty, office forces reduced. As a sign in one Jarge office wisely advi~s, "When the bug bites you, stay home! We'd rather take on your work than take on your germs!"

Same advice might well sp­ ply to Mass attendance. The ,precept of the Church requiring '''attending MaSs 'on all Swidays and holy days of, obligation'! should not be' ,carried beyond the limits of coJDJDOn sense and humanitarianism.

We're all familiar, I'm with the holier-than-thou pro­ nouncement, "I wouldn't miss Mass on Sundays even H I had to crawl!"

And this is INPposed .10 b,e the utmost in a plu-perfect Catholic? The crawling Part is O.K. but if the crawler is re­ duced to a weak .pulp of sneez­ ing, coughing, spraying a .whole congregation-fore, aft and side- ­ ways-with unwelcomeconta­ ginn, there is surely no virtue bu t a lot of vice in such pseudo-' sanctimoniousness. ­ One such, at .each parish Mass, can quickly reduce the congr~ gation on the following Sunday a~d cause, in between, it lot of DUsery.

The smoothing ,warmt1;l was .rood, very good. , "Now what would you like 10 eat?" The Head Nurse, stauilch­ l;y faithful to a' belief in "stuff-,' Jng a cold," ran down the menu: "Ha.Ql and eggs?"

When this favorite dish was ,refused with a faint headshake, he trotted out further proposals: "A bowl of soup and a ham­ burger-maybe a cheeseburger?"

The very thought was anath­ ema. '.

Well, if this be Asian' flu, we thought', taking the impromptu diagnosis at face value, let's get on with it, adopting the adage of an old doctor we knew: "If you can ~eep -the patient alive long­ er than the bug, you've won!"

LYNN (NC) - A Lutherd clergy leader in this area rec­ ommended combining social sel'­ vices (jf Catholic and Protestant churches and also ul"ged redue­ ing the number of Protestanfl churches by as much as 65 per cent.

The Rev. Eugene A. Brodeen­ pastor of the First ~utheran church here and dean of the Eastern Massachusetts District of the Lutheran Church JD: America, made the recommen­ dations in a report.

Catholic reaction to the PF&­ posal has not yet been voiced but Lynn Protestant clergymen hope to meet soon with Catholie clergy to discuss the merger proposal, it was stated.

Churches should devote mo~ time to the spiritual needs oI! their members, rather thaD: competing against themselves, said the Rev. Mr. Brodeen. This can only be done by having fewer but stronger churches, be contended.

He noted in Lynn theJ1!

D Methodist churches and eight Baptist churches. Some of the churches have fewer than 100 members, some no more than 300 and unless a parish has at least 300 members it cannot ex­ ist, he contended. There are iii all 50 Protestant churches here and he would reduce the num­ ber to Hi or 20.

Spling collection with the' new midi or mid-calf hemline. Truly reminiscent of the thirties, these first designs'left me'a bit cold but then so did the mini skirts .when they first came out so I'm not an accurate, barometer.

What I would like to see is more and more women making up their own minds and not fol­ lowing "(like a bunch of robots) the beatiful people or the jet' set or the go-go gang or which­ ever group is in vogue at the time. These people I have the money, inclination and time to follow all that is new and "in".

However, the average Amer':' ican woman, may have the in­ clination but certainly not the time or the money that these darlings of the press can spend. on their yearly wardrobes. What many of these women spend on a single item we don't spend on a yearly family clothing aliow­ allCe. Therefore it is up to us as individuals to buy and wear what looks good on us and not what looks good on Baby Jane 01' Jackie.

WASHINGTON (NC) - Rep. William Fitts Ryan of New York has introduced legislation to re­ peal restrictions on welfare aid imposed by the new Social Security bill which became law less than two weeks ~efore.

Ryan's proposal, introduced on the day the 90th Congress convened its second session, would eliminate the freeze on 'Aid to Dependent Children, the compulsory work training pro­ gram, and income limitations on federal contributions to state medicaid programs.

All were part of the Social Security bill passed at the end of the first session and signed

by President Johnson on Jan. 2.

Ryan conceded that current welfare costs are high, but said "it is no solution to take out our failure on impoverished fami­ lies, dependent children and people who cannot afford ade­ quate medical care."

President Johnson has named a commission to study the pos­ sibility of revamping the na­ tion's system of welfare laws.

Priest Asserts Poverty Great .

Scando' of A~erican Society MILWAUKEE (NC)-An .ex~ pert on .urban problems 'said here the· great scandal of Arney.. ican society. is the fact that "we tolerate in our midst millions of people living in poverty, segregation and without hope."

Father Geno Baroni said the poverty problem' represents an increasing "culture gap" between the affluent, growing middle class and the poor. This gap reflects the cultural, edu~ cationaI, economic and spiritual segregation in American society, he stated.

Father Baroni, executive di~ l' e c tor of the Washington Archdiocesan Office of Urban Affairs, addressed more than 100 priests' at a conference on 'Poverty at St. Francis Seminary here. The conference was sponsored by the priestly formation committee of the Milwaukee 'archdiocesan Priests' Senate in cooperation with the Council on Urban Life. , Spiritual Missing "Here we have a nation which ill the richest and most powerful in the. world," Father Baroni Isaid. "We have the money, tech~ nology and brainpower. to put . woman an d c h'ld every man, I 'on JUs feet. But, if we get all thellC material goods, then isn't something spiritual missing?'" De asked. ., , , , I .

New Bedford Nurses Enjoy Meetings

A group (}If New Bedford area nurses congregated 8it Our Lady's Haven Saturday.

But the sick didn't suffer as a result. Occasion was the second annual day of recolleoion of the Oatholic Nurses Guild of Greater New Bedford-held at the Fairhaven home for elderly resid~nts that now serves as a monthly meeting place for the Guild. What hap­ pened to area patients while the nurses were "recollect-' . "? M' M C H II mg. ISS 'ary . a oran, president (}If the Guild, laugh­

This will ensure the successful implementation of our combat plans."

These are the instructions is­ sued to Viet Cong units con­ cerning the cease-fire periods at Christmas, New Year and the lunar new year known as "Tet" in Vietnam.

The information came from n

document captured in the Fourth Corps Tactical Zone by a Viet­ namese Marine unit. The doc­ ument is dated Dec. 16, 1967, and was issued in English trans­ lation by the United States Mis­ sion in Vietnam (Jan. 8). , Issued by the Military Affairs Committee of F3, the communi­ que is addressed to the three types of Viet Cong troops, main' furce, local force and guerrillas at provincial level and "various brancl;les and agencies."

The communique details the time periods for the cease-fire.

Two have already passed. The lunar new year period, according to the direc·tive, begins at 0001 hours Jan. 27, 1968, and ends at 0001 hours on Feb. 3 1968. "Tet"

"Our members," she said, '''are not necessarily employed. Some are doctors' wives, some have small children and don't work.

Others were not on dutY-110 there was no great drain on any institution."

The £irst such day of recol­ lection was held at the Haven. last year.'

It replaced 'retreats formerly conducted at Cathedral Camp that "didn't draw as many peo­ as we might have hoped,", Miss Halloran said.

Sisters Belong Last year, more than 30 of the Guild's 80-odd members attend­ ed t he Day of Recollection.

"They liked it so much, we de­ cided to repeat it," Miss Hallo­ ran recalled. .~ Last year, she served as chair­ man of the Recollection Day. This year, Miss Anna Donovan was chairman. ' In addition to lay nurses, nursing nuns from Our Lady's Haven and Sacred Heart Home also are members of the Guild.

"They helped make it a suc­ cess because they were so glad to be on hand."

Moderator of the Guild, Rev. Albert F. 'Shovelton of St. Mary's Home, serves as "retreat • master" for the Days of Recol­ lection. "He's such a good speaker, we always get ;1 great deal out of the day. . "The nuns' choir' from the home sings fur Benediction and ' you can't ask for better music," Miss Halloran says.

She feels meeting there also is "a good way to acquaint nurses with the institution."

THE ANCHORThurs., Jan. 25, 1968

.A.bout Clergy SAN ANTONIO (NC)-Arch­ bishop Robert E, Lucey of SaD Antonio told a meeting of Cath­ olic, Protestant and Orthodox leaders here that it is a "tired old myth that clergymen belong m the sanctuary and in the syna­ gogue and not in the slums, the hovels of the poor, the hall of a 'labor union, nor in the fields where human beings, made to the image and likeness of God, labor under the burning sun for starvation wages."

"That aged and tottering myth," Archbishop Lucey de­ clared, "has been exploded al'ld condemned by ministers and priests 'many times in recent years.

"But," he added, "certain nice people in our Church today are shocked that Christ in the per­ son of a clergyman should as­ associate with the' little people the exploited, the poverty­ stricken, diseased and the illiter­ ate."

The archbishop spoke at OU]?

Lady of the Pillar Retreat House here at a banquet honoring Or­ thodox and Protestimts willo spoke at weekend retreats con­ ducted at Catholic retreat houses in the archdiocese in the past year.

Educators Favor Plan to Change Constitution WASHINGTON (NC) A conference of Catholic educators has approved. a proposed new constitution for the National Catholic Ed­ ucational Association which would establish new structures and broadened goals for the 64­ year-old organization.

Participating in the three­ ,day conference were more than 30 delegates representing each of the present seven association departments. Founded in 19M, the association is the nation's oldest and largest Catholic ed­ ucational organization. It has some 16,000 institutional and in­ dividual members.

The constitution approved by the conference now goes to the organization execu,tive board which will meet in Washington, Feb. 13. If approved by the board, the constitution will be submitted to the association's membership at its convention in San Francisco, April 15 to 18.

Principle Points Major points in the new con­ stitution include: The association is restruc­ tured along functional lines.

This is in contrast with the present department structure which corresponds to different levels of education.

Two major divisions are es­ tablished-a division of higher' education and a division of fundamental education.

A bureau of services is estab­ lished to coordinate research ef­ forts and service functions.

Two executive committees will be established for the di­ vision of higher education and the division of fundamental ed­ ucation.

The board of directors, chief policy making body, will, for the first time, be open to repre­ sentatives from the field of ed­ ucation at large. The new board will have 18 members, as against the present 29, three elected of­ ficers from the association, three elected members from the di:' vision of higher education, six from the division of fundamental education and six delegates at large.

Four Objectives The constitution sets four major objectives for the Nation­ al Catholic Educational Associ­ ation: "To promote and encourage the principles and ideals of Christian education and forma­ tion."

"To encourage and provide means whereby Catholic educa­ tors and their institutions can work cooperatively and effec­ tively for professional growth."

"To promote and interpret the Catholic educational en­ deavor in its contribution to the total naUonal educational en­ terprise and to the general wel­ fare of the' nation."

"To seek and foster cOGpera­ tion nationally and internation­ ally between Catholic education­ al endeavors and those of other educational institutions and agencies which promote the gen­ eral welfare of society."

Presidlent of So.,th Vietnam Clarifies State, Religion loyalty , SAIGON (NC) - President Nguyen Van T>hieu, a Catholic, said here that as President he should put the highest interests of the state above everything. . He was asked by a Vietnamese newspaperman how he would choose if divergence arose be­ tween your point of view and that of the Bishops' Council."

According to the semi-official Vietnam Press News Service, the

President replied in the follow­ ing sense: "As President of the Republic charged with conducting the af­ fairs of the state the President believes that he would not con­ sider himself as an individual belonging to a political party or to any' particular religion and that he should put the highest interests of the state above everything." /

The Furniture Wonderland

The actual words of the Pre!l­ ident were reportedly: "When I am President of the Republic I should forget that I am a Cath­ olic." This was apparently an off-the-cuff reply to a news­ man questioning him This journalist's paper and an­ other allied to it printed the statement with the headline in quotation marks: "I no longer consider myself a faithful Cath-

(

olic." The President's press of­ ficer promptly issued a clarifica-­ tion ag above.

By Msgr. George G. Higgins Religious News Service (RNS) reported' in a recent ,dispatch from Albany, N.Y. that Bishop Fulton, Sheen of Rochester spoke briefly to both houses of the New York SVate Legislature, using the same quip: "I'm ndt going to pray for you.

Continued from Page One Our Lady of Fatima Church, Swansea.

Heretofore, the religious lead­ ers have almost single-handedly participated in the unity octave sessions whereas an aroused laity joined to make this year's program the most successful ever conducted in this section of New England.

Rev. Howard L. Love, Ph.D., pastor of the Memorial Method­ ist Church, Taunton spoke to more than 500 people of all faiths at services in St. Mary's Church, Taunton Ion Sunday night.

In his sermon entitled "Dying to Live", Dr. Love explained that an inmportant way to reach ecumenism is through resurrec," tion" the most miraculous power in our personal lives".

"Fears, desires, and hatreds keep us from living the lives we ought to live," Dr. Love added. "We must die before' we can live."

"We must die to the things which divide us," Dr. Love con­ cluded, "and rise up to the cre­ ation and gift of God." In Fall River, a capacity con­ gregation in the Union Method­ ist Church heard Rev. Edward J. Mitchell, assistant at the Holy Name Parish, note that the key to understanding Christian unity was in the resurrection of Christ, for in that moment when the dead' Christ stood alive in the midst of His apos­ tles, a new type of religious community flashed into being.

This association of men in God was so inseparable from the resurrection. that St. Paul can call it Christ's Body.

Liturgy, has called on the 7,000­ member Liturgical Conference to come up with concrete pro­ posals for liturgical reform in the United States.

The archbishop's appeal, made in a statement to NC News Service, came in response to 8 Liturgical Conference letter cir­ cularized among the nation's bishops and criticizing them for their lack of leadership in lit­ urgical renewal.

Mailed to the bishops at the beginning of January and made public on Jan. 8, the Liturgical Conference statement empha­ sized "serious - distress at the continuing absence of signifi­ cantly open, creative, and vigor­ ous leadership in matters litur­ gical on the part of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops."

1IJIlcreased lDiisregarll1l Especially criticizing the dis­ cussions of the liturgy carried­ on at the bishops' meeting in Washington, D. C., last Novem­ ber, the statement then warned of the possibility of liturgical disobedience. With obvious ref-. erence to "underground Masses" and "agapes" being celebrated around the nation, the state­ ment's authors predicted: "There will continue to be an increase in the disregard in which the liturgical authority of the bishops is being met throughout the nation by sin­ cere and dedicated people, both clergy and lay."

Archbishop Hallinan's reply, while confirming the Liturgical Conference's complaint, criti­ cized the conference for con­ centrating blame 0111 the bishops.

"By speaking of the absence of leadership and creativity in the liturgy, the Liturgical Con­ ference has put its finger on a genuine problem. But it has merely aggravated the problem by criticizing the bishops alone.

Share Responsibility "The fact is," the archbishop pointed out, "that no one of us­ bishops, priests, laity, the Litur­ gical Conference- itself has done as much as we could and should have done in matters liturgical. The responsibility is a shared one.

"Last October," Archbishop Hallinan continued, "the Litur­ gical Conference called for 'a sense -of collaboration and a willingness to consult in an open dialogue of bishops and priests and the whole body of Jay men and women; and a gene/rous spirit which will show appre­ ciation for any effort at li turgi­ cal renewal. . .'

"In that spirit I invite the Liturgical Conference to pre­ pare and propose to the bishops concrete programs of liturgical reform While continuing to seek its avowed goals in the fields of liturgical catechumenate and participation."

National Seminar

On Church in India

NEW DELHI (NC)-Plans to hold a national seminar on "The Church in India Today in the Light of' the Decrees of the Vatican Council" were an­ nounced here by the steering committee of the Indian Bish­ ops' Conference.

Father Patrick D'Souza, com­ mittee secretary, said the si:I:­ day seminar will attempt to re­ define the Church's mission in India, especially in view of the need for its cultural and social Integration into the countrY'D .life.

tackle the language of Ceasar' and Cicero with tape recordings, filmstrips and programmed workbooks.

Among the first sentences they hear on tape (in a smooth male voice ,of movie-star' calibre) are "Vestes virum reddit" and Man­ us manum lavat" "Clothes make the man" and "One hand washes the other," surely uni­ versally applicable comments on the social scene.

The workshop instructs stu­ dents when to listen, when to repeat after the taped voice and when to study on their own.

They proceed at their own speed and, it's not uncommon for a girl to cover from 50 to 100 pro­ gram steps during a 40-minute Latin period.

'11'0 1IJnderstand !Latin Purpose of the program is to teach students "to read Latin with understanding," said Sis­ ter Francis Sebastian. Instead of word-for-word renderings of the language, they're encouraged to give "idea translations," more

accurately .rendering the Latin

sense. .

Distributed by Encyclopedia -Britannica, the program .is based on a linguistics approaeh de­

veloped by Dr. Waldo E. Sweet.

Sister Francis Sebastian first be­ came famiiiar with his methods at Boston College, therefore was eager to try his course. As a pilot teacher, she will relay comments and suggestions on the program to Encyclopedia Britan­ nica, which will take them int() consideration in making revi­ sions.

An acid test for the course came soon after school began this year, when Sister Fr:mcis Sebastian was involved in an automobile accident and was out of the classroom for three weeks.

Her substitute wasn't familiar with the program, but the girls assured her that they knew what to do. "They ran the class almost by themselves," said Sister, "and when I returned they had lost no time."

She says her girls pull down consistently higher grades than traditionally taught students.­ "They -aren't competing against each other, only against them­ selves," she noted "and there's less tendency to chat because they:d only cheat themselves."

The girls will finish the year,

she said, with a Latin vocabulary of some 700 words, as opposed to between three and five hundred

under traditional teaching meth­ ods.

More Students The program also seems to

have revived interest in Latin

at SHA, said Sister' Francis Se­

bastian. Her 50 students form an overwhelming majority o.f tlbe freshman class of 68.
