Father John Russell, CCD di­ rect-or in the diocese of Syracuse, N.Y., was elected chairman pro­ tem of the directors committee.

·CHICAGO. (NC)-A Catholic youth expert cited materialism, new forms of service, and a "phony" picture' of seminary life as among the reasons why young men do not enter the priesthood. Father Robert' Carson, O. Praem., told the' priests and Brothers representing 53 reli­ gious communities at the Mid­ west Religious Vocation Direc­ tors Association conference here that a recent survey of Catqolic seminaries in. the Midwest showed that admissions have de­ creased 30 per cent in recent years. ' .The NorlJertine Father, a high school teacher, asserted that present-day ,vocational recruit­ ing tactics are 'unreal to ideal­ istic young men, and that new courses ·of action must be found to reverse the decline in voca­ tions. The young man leaning toward the priesthood "is much more interested in how he can serve God and his fellow man as' a priest than he' is in recreation in the seminary and the splen­ dors of the liturgy," he said, Father Carson went on to re­ mark thjlt the young man of to­ day must be, told of the active apostolate of. the priesthood, "for talking' about happy times in the seminary is as ineffective as it is phony," ,Among, the factors accounting for this 'distraction from the pri,esthood,. accQrdin: to FatheJr

Carson, are "the many exciting new forms of service which, un­ like the priesthood or religious state, do nQt· require lifetime commitment." "Young people look with great. interest at such movements as the Peace Corps, Papal Volun­ teers, and civil rights move­ ments. Youths want to go where the action is, and tqey see much more of it· in these movements than they do in the parish rec­ tory," he said. Turn to Page Twelve
