CHICAGO (NC) - Catholics must continue to carry the. heavy burden of operating their schools because to close them now would create chaos in public schools, the superintendent of the Chicago archdiocese's school ,system said here. Msgr. William E. McManus, head of the nation's' largest private school system, enrolling 358,000 pupils, said lawmakers must "face up to the realities of our day" and provide public aid for education in parochial and other private schools. ' Msgr. McManus told 1,000 Catholic laymen that some public schools in Chicago and its' suburbs ,would be forced to put on double and triple shifts, with 60 or more pupils per class, if they had to accommodate the pupils now attending Catholic schools in the area. "No matter how heavy the burden," he said, "Catholics must continue their schools.
