Leader Praises Council Work NEW YORK (NC) - The president of the Ameri,can Jewish Committee has wel­ comed Pope Paul VI's promulgation of the Ecumeni­ cal Councii's declaration on the Jews as "a turning point in 1,900 years of Jewish Christian his­ tory."

Morris B. Abram has expressed the hope that the Jewish decla­ ration, part of a longer Council document on non-Christian re­ ligions, would help "purify the climate of relations between Christians and Jews throughout the world."

Abram particularly praised Augustin Cardinal Bea, S.J., head of the Vatican Secretariat for Promoting Christian Unity, and the U. S. bishops for their efforts on behalf of the decla~ tion.

the meeting.

Suggestions on new Francis­ can constitutions, coming from priests, Brothers and clerics throughout the world, have to be forwarded to Rome by April of next yl;Lar, Father Ecklehamp said.

Much discussion among Fran­ ciscans involves decentralization of administrative .procedures, Father Becker said: Increased autonomy to permit friars of dif­ ferent nations to make cultural adaptations suggested by their environment is being widely studied.

Lay Boards The meeting at st. Leonard's was described as an occasion for ~'a fraternal interchange of ideas" on such subjects as voca­ tions, seminary educati?n, Third Order programs, FranCIscan his­ tory, literature and research, liturgical progress, Mar ian studies and publishing projects.

Father Becker said discussions included study of the function. of lay advisory boards on the provincial ~evel.

Such a board exists in the Cincinnati province to advise on administrative matters, he noted.

"Theoretically you can project lay boards .in a province's fu­ ture," added Father Ecklekamp.

"However, concrete experience often is at variance with theory.

This is one reason why tbese· interprovincial meetings are useful."

Charge Mi~u~e of: Mass Media, Harms Youths' Moral Standards, . DAYTON (NC)-Two author­ ities on juvenile problems have warned that the "misuse" of mass media is harming the moral standards of children and young adults. .

Ma ryknoller Says .Council Coverage Now Much Better

Irish Sociologist Que~tions Us·e Of 'Explosion'

: SCRANTON (NC)'- A f{)rmer president of .the Catholic Pre s s Association says the press, radio and TV eoverage of the Second Vatican' Council now has become "pro­ fessional" .

Rev. Albert Nevins, M.M., ed­ itor of Maryknoll Magazines, keynoted a journalism seminar for 110 high school students at Maryknoll Junior Seminary here. , He expressed the opinion that coverage of the Council by Cath­ olic and secular reporters was "colored" at first and in some cases poorly written. As the sessions progressed, the coverage and the type of writing im:­ proved" Father Nevins added.

The Catholic press has provided good' and bad coverage, he said.

Proffers Advice "A majority of the Catholic papers give extended coverage to all sessions while others have bogged down and provided too little," he added.

Father Nevins advised today's young journalists, who are studying to be the experts of the future, to be aware constantly of the problems facing the world.

"This includes foreign aid and other major areas of impor­ tance" he said. He noted that the young editor must equip himself "intellectually and technically" to better understand the obliga­ tions a journalist has in giving his readers sound, wholesome and attractive reading.

He advocated more community action and personal involvement in the global campaign against poverty} "Demographers reckon that a two or three per cent population increase is explosive. Yet those persons who hav.e a vested in­ terest in the propagation of ar­ tificial birth control contend that 1.8 per cent is explosive," the sociologist declared. ,In his call for leaders in the global war against poverty, Roseingrave said: "Ireland is not a rich country and cannot vie with the affluent nations of the world.

Reaction in United Nations General Assembly

UNITED NATIONS (NC) ­ The profound impression made

by Pope .Paul VI's address at the United Nations was reflected in one speech after another as the U.N. General Assembly con­ tinued its annual general debate.

The historic significance of the Pope's appearance before the assembly, the deeply spiritual inspiration of his message, and above all his own compelling humility received repeated com­ ment.

Dato' Ismail bin Dato' of Ma­ laysia summed up what seemed the universal reaction of U.N. delegates and secretariat mem­ bers alike when he said: ''This rostrum became hallowed ground for a brief 30 minutes.

It is impossible not to feel the impact of the great call to peace that His Holiness Pope Paul VI made to the entire world of humanity through the represent­ atives of the 117 nations gather­ ed here. I can only hope that in the months and years ahead we shall prove worthy of the message he entrusted to us."

The universality of the Pope's appeal was singled out by Nuhu Bamali of Nigeria, who said: "The impart of His Holiness Pope Paul's message on us had nothing to do with whether we were Roman Catholics, or Pro­ testant Christians,' or Moslems, or people of no religion at all.

I nearly said 'people of no faith at all,' but that '\vould not be correct, for we all share one faith with the great Pontiff: namely, faith in humanity ...

"We believe in the kind of world that he wishes us aU to join in creating: a world in' which we can live together in peace, regardless of differencea Gt race, creed and ideolog)'."

Says. Catholics Out of Touch With Negroes WICHITA (NC) - White Catholics "really don't know what is going on" in the Negro community, and as a result are not prepared for the changes Negroes want, a layman involved in the fight for racial justice said here in Kansas.

Mathew Ahmann, executive secretary of the National Catho­ lic Conference for Interracial Justice, Chicago, said the Chris­ tion community "has yet to awaken to the plight of the Negro community. The Christian has yet to comprehend what Pope John put so ably in his en­ eyclicals: We must awaken to the plight of the Negro community that he might grasp the rights that are already his."

Southnluch Freer Ahmann told the midwest chapter of the Catholic Clergy Conference for the Interracial Apostolate that racial problems "are far more severe in the North" than in the South.

"The South is in a sense much freer today, in spite of the many issues at stake. In the North, however, the serious inequality is not only continuing but it continues to thrive."

He added: "We have our gross scandals in the North which we try to keep rather quiet. I think giving publicity will ..ef£ect a much-needed conciliation be­ tween the North and the South."

Catholic leaders, he said, have failed to take the initiative in the fight for racial justice. "We are still far too reserved. Our leadership is too remote from the reality of the Negro commu­ nity. As a result, we really don't know what is going on."

Train Leaders .

Instead of moving into the fields of civil rights and social justice, he said, "we decided the way to reform is to make the liturgy more meaningful. We in­ vested many men to train our leadership and train priests, and 80 on."

He suggested that part of the. time and money used for this be used "to train leaders in the civil rights field. This, above all, would certainly help make Christian living more meaning­ ful. I do not think that there is anything more basic than this.

"We must contribute to the Negro community. We must feel its frustrations and its bitterness.

This is really crucial.

"On this, I think, we and the Catholic community stand."

Nun Christens Ship Named for Brother BAY CITY (NC)-8ister Rose Marie drew her arm back, swung mightily and shattered the bot­ tle' of champagne against the bow of the U.S.S. O'Callahan, thereby becoming the first nun to christen a warship of the American Navy.

The O'Callahan is named after Sister Rose Marie's brother, Father Joseph T. O'Callahan, S.J., the only chaplain to receive the Medal of Honor, the nation's highest award for heroism.

Father O'Callahan won the award for his actions aboard the burning U.S.S. Franklin off the coast of Japan in 1944. He died last year.

Sister Rose Marie, a Mary­ knoll missionary in the Philip­ pines, was a prisoner of the Japanese in World War II.

Brother Celestine Sails Today for Station In .Guadeloupe, French Antilles Toq.ay a boat sets sail from New York harbor for the warm French Antilles. Aboard her will be Brother M. Celestine of the Brothers of Christian Schools, a native of Bles­ sed Sacrament parish, Fall River. A veteran of 45 years in religion, Brother Celestine has served four years in Hong Kong and 24 years in Burma in boys' schools and orphan­ ages. He left Burma in Sep­ tember and at first expected to return to his community's Canadian headquarters "but Canada is so cold after all those years in Burma." So as­ signments were changed, and· Brother's new duty will be at an orphanage in Guadeloupe.

"I do not know what I will be doing, but I know I will be working," he said. "I cannot be idle." Thus far, his religious life has been anything but idle. At the large boys' school in Burma· where he was most recently sta­ tioned he cared for the sacristy, bookshop and candy store, in ad­ dition to 130 rabbits, 44 pigs, and a number of ducks and geese.

"I like very much the ani­ mals," he said, in English influ­ enced by years in French Can­ ada, where he went as a young boy to live with an uncle.

Large Family The missioner is one of a fam­ ily of 16 children, of whom four in addition to himself entered religion. A. brother, Brother Alban, is also a member of the Brothers of the Christian Schools, and is stationed in Burma at an orphanage. A sister, Sister Marie Gabriel, is a Little Sister of the Poor in Troy, N. Y., and another Sister, Sister Marie Hervey, is a Grey Nun at Sacred Heart Home in New Bedford.

Another Grey Nun, Sister St. Philibert, is deceased.

Additionally, Brother Celes­ tine has two married sisters and a brother, all of St. Anne's par­ ish, Fall River. .

In Burma, the missioner had a pet project, he said,. Our Lady of the Star Rosary Club. Some 30 boys were members, and each learned to make rosaries, which were distributed to missionaries.

Parrish Program Is Finding Jobs For Unem~lo1'ed CHICAGO (NC) ~ A par­ ish project aimed at finding jobs for the unemployed has been lauched with apparent success in this city's Lawndale district, scene of a two-day riot last August.

Lawndale for Better Jobs, o.p­ erated by Our Lady of Lourdes parish, has found jobs for 60 per­ sons so far, and 59 of them still have the jobs. ~ The program began as a pilot project in June, then became part of Chicago's war on poverty on Oct. 1 when it received a grant of $25,000 to pay salaries of seven fulltime employees for the first six months.

Canvass Neighborhood Lawdale for Better Jobs em­ ploys two job counsellors, who process applications, find jobs and recommend training when necessary; three community rep­ resentatives, who canvass the neighborhood for employable men and women; and two secre­ taries, who staff the office.

Prime mover of the center is Father Michael Dempsey, who was assigned as pastor of the parish last January when plans ·were still being discussed. He also serves as chairman of the advisory council, which is made up entirely of area residents.

The center caine about after a four-month survey of the area's needs by couples in the Christian Family Movement. The survey showed 15 per cent un­ employme,nt and 44 per cent of the people in low-paying, un­ skilled jobs.

Many Needs "Our community has a great many needs," Father Dempsey said. "But unemployment seems to be at the heart of so many other problems-housing, proper nutrition, education, attitude­ that we decided we would have to begin with this problem."

Since the area is highly indus­ ·trialized, the' center does not have to go far to find the jobs.

"We've pledged ourselves "to find 500 jobs in the next year, and we'd like as many of those to be in the Lawndale vicinty as possible;" Father Dempsey said.

A man employed in his own community develops a greater community and civic pride, he added, and rarely moves away from his work. Along with this, "an influx of new wages would give Lawndale part of the boo~ it has to have," he said.

Now Total 254 NEW YORK (NC)-There are now 254 V. S. Catholic college­ and junior colleges.

When Paul Asks For Prayer In audiences given this week, Pope Piml· has called special attention to his exhortation asking for· prayers that Catholics and others will take up the work and aims of the Vatican Council when this final· session concludes.

He knows very well, and sO said, that his words received little· attention because editors and news commentators are looking for the dramatic and the unusual. And-face it-when the Pope asks for prayers, that is neither dra­

matic nor unusual. .

·And yet, the Pope does not want anyone to lose sight of the fact that prayer is the essence of the life of man, his highest response to His Creator; Prayer is the power­ house that motivates all great and dramatic movements.

Prayer cannot be said to play an insignificant part in the life of men and the world. .

The Vatican Council, from. its early planning stages, was called in order to make men holy. In July, 1960, Pope John said: "To put it 'briefly but completely, it is the aim of the Council that the clergy should aquire a new brilliance of sanctity, that the people be instructed effi­ caciously in the truths of the Faith and Christian morals, that the new generation, who are growing like a hope of better times, should be-educated properly; that atten­ tion be given to the social apostolate, and that Chris­ tians should have a missionary heart, that is, brotherly and friendly toward all and with all."

With all the" wonderful work of the Council to date, with its newly-stressed emphasis on worship, on the lay apostolate, on the role of the bishop, on the Christian in the modern world, there has never been the slightest de-emphasis of the original Council aim of Pope John. The eall was then and is now for internal renewal, for holi':' ness of life. And prayer ·is of the essence here.

So the Pope may not be making a dramatic move when he calls for prayer. But prayer is the method that has been responsible from man's creation for wonders and dramatic changes within him and his world. Com­ monplace as it may seem, undramatic as it may appear, unspectacular as its course is-it remains a paramount means of holiness and of achieving the Council goals.

When Pope Paul asks for. prayers, then, he is not merely mouthing a pious platitude or doing the expected.

He is pleading for men to do the one thing that will guarantee Council success.

DECADE OF PROGRESS

poisett. On Sunday, November 28th, the seventy-fifth Parish Board will be canonically estab­ lished at Saint John of God Parish in Somerset.

The number of Parish Boards operating in a Diocese is a real measure of the effectiveness of CCD. Each establishment indi­ cates that another Parish CCD unit has been staffed with lay- : men and women who are wiliing to give their time,. energy ·and prayer to. the promotion of the work 'of CCD in 81'l organizecl way.

The progress made in the FaD Rivet Diocese has resulted from the work of hundreds ofreli­ gious and laity and it is difficult to pinpoint outstanding contrib­ utors. Certairily, the late Father' Edward Gorman; first Diocesan CCD Director, was a pioneer in the program. While pastor at Saint· Patrick's, Somerset, and D i 0 c e san Superintendent of .Schools, he still managed to provide for the foundations of CCD in the Diocese.

Among the first parishes to es­ tablish Executive Boards in the Diocese were St. James, New Bedford, Immaculate Concep­ tion, North Easton, St. Patrick's in Wareham, and St. Joseph's, Taunton. Mt. Carmel and St. Mary's, New Bedford, share the honor of being the first parishes to activate the Parent-Educator Units.

The Most Rev. James L. Con­ nolly, Bishop of Fall River, has provided a continuing impetus to CCD activities in the Diocese.

Ir. 1957, he appointed the present Diocesan CCD Director, Rev. Joseph L. Powers. In September.

1960, the Most Reverend Bishop convened a Clergy Institute on CCD at Bishop Stang High School, North Dartmouth. At those sessions, he indicated that every· parish in the· Diocese should begin the process of. ell­ Uoblishing CeD units. In May, 1963, Bishop Connolly approved the formation of the Diocesan CCD Executive Board.

The Ordinary of the Diocese has continued his very active support of the CCD program iR frequent pastoral letters and by his participation in Lay Training Institutes and the New England .) CCD Congresses.

All this has been essential to the growth of the CCD Apostol­ atp in the Diocese. Now, under the direction of Father Powers and an alert Diocesan Board composed of committed laity, the Fall River CCD Program has come to the point where it con­ ducts religions instruction for sixty per cent of the Catholie students who reside in the Dio­ cese. In other words, the burden to provide formal religious edu­ cation for the majority of our children falls on CCD. Thia trend will continue as the num­ ber of children reaching school age increases.

WASHINGTON (NC) The nation's Catholic school superintendents have urged here that local and diocesan school boards become a standard part of U. S. Catholic education.

A resolution adopted at the annual meeting of the Depart­ ment of School Superintendents of the National Catholic Educa­ tional Association recommends that such boards be "broadly representative of the Catholic community."

The action is the latest in what is a fast-paced development of support for school boards. In the past few years, the number of boards on the parish and dioc­ esan level has grown from a handful to nearly 800. Concen­ trated in the Mid-west they are found now in about 75 per cent of the dioceses.

Move to Offset Red Effort NEW ORLEANS (NC)-NBC newsman Wilson Hall told the story here of a young priest­ Padre Milo-near Recife, Brazil,

who led a successful move to

offset efforts of an avowed cOm­

munist leader.

T he communist, Francisco Juliao, whose greatest hero is

Cuba's Fidel Castro, formed what he called "peasant leagues," and preached that the only way' the downtrodden would get land and economic advances was to get guns and shoot the limdown­

ers.

There were some deaths.

Padre Milo formed his own leagues, holding meetings in churches. He proposed non­ violent action, through such things as strikes.

The young priest-whose ef­ forts ,were approved by his bishop-also met with landown­ ers, telling them bluntly they would have to give up something

Starage of Dahlias, Begonias

..J

.THE ANCHORThurs., Nov. 11, 1965

'.

Serrans To Hold Ladies Night

By Joseph and Marilyn Roderick My dahlias and begonias are now comfortably set­ tled in a peach basket, ready to be stored for ·the Winter.

They have been uprooted, set in the sun for three days and defoliated. Of course they have not been labeled. Every year I vow that I will label them before storing, but my only place that involves candy at this time, for one of the most good intentions fade when imaginative wreaths rve seen the cold air starts to nip at was of lollipops and peanuts.

•

my fingers and a football game beckons on lelevision.

I have learned from experi­ ence, however, that I can usual­ ly tell the color of both begonias and dahlias in the Spring when I start them in the cellar. The first tender shoots which emerge from the tubers are dark red for the reds, purples, lavenders and the other dark tones, while those plants which will produce light-colored . flowers have a light cast. .

The first year I planted dah­ nas I lost them over the Winter because I allowed them to dry out and wither. Storing, I learn­ ed, is a simple matter If one lteeps two general rules in mind: (1) do not allow the tubers' to dry and (2) do not allow them to become overheated. The first rule is quite easily followed if the tubers are packed in damp peat moss and then left alone.

The peat moss retains moisture very well, yet will not promote fungus unless it is excessively wet. From time to time the tu­ bers can be checked to ensure that they are not withering but I have found that only' one or two light sprinklings are needed for' the Winter. . The fubers should· be stored where· they· are not allowed to· freeze but where they are sM·;; ficiently cool to keep them dor­ mant until Spring. My cellar is' anheated and as a result affords a perfect place for storage of the tubers. Enougb heat is given ~ by the furnace' and piping 110 that the temperature ·.remains In the fifties, which' is ' a1D).ost perfect for the tubers.·· In addition .to peat moss. It might be wise' to add a powder­ ed fungicide to· the dahlias If they are stored .in a damp or wet cellar. This would ensure that there would be no chance tor fungus to start. Nothing is so disheartening as the discOv­ ery that those tubers and bulbs which we thought were safely stored for the Winter'" are a mass of fungus in the Spring.

Vowing this year to get an early start on my holiday pre­ parations, I have spent the past week shopping for ingredients for Christmas fruitcakes and candies. These are two items of holiday fare that can be made now when our pace is a bit more leisurely than it will. be In a few more weeks. In fact, fruitcakes improve with age and the confections take very nicely to that marvelous housewife's helper, the freezer.

Candies of all kinds seem to be part of our holiday fare, from the sugar plums that dance through youngsters' dreams to the peppermint canes that deco­ ~te our trees. The making of these sweet-tooth items could be aided by the j u v e n 11 e members of the household. as children from 6 to 60 enjoy licking that sugary fudge pan '4»r yanking on that long rope of taffy.

Your kitchen need not be the

It was made with a base of two 2" wide circles of corrugated cardboard. Each circle was 14" in outer diameter and had a 10" inner diameter. They were glued together to provide extra thick­ ness and strength.

First, a double row of peanuts . were glued around the card­ board base. When they were dry two more rows were added.

When the peanuts were firmly adhered, they were spray pahlt­ · ed with a flat white paint. Next the stems of green cellophane covered round pops were insert­ . ed into holes, made with an icepick in the outer rim of the circle. A chain attached to a brass ring was used as a hanger.

One nice thing about this type of decoration when you get tired of it you can always eat it.

If you're a fudge fan, as I am, you know that while this is a confection that is extremely popular, it is not the easiest sweet to make. Often the most careful cook finds hers too sug­ ary, too hard, or so runny. it's easier to drink than chew. The following fudge' recipe is one that my mother-in-law makes every Christmas'. It takes the. guess work out of making fudge, the 'results are always' delicious, and it makes such a goodly' amount (fi,ve'potinds) that you can share it with your friends and relatives and still never short.

BOSTON (NC)-The need for missionaries is shifting. from foreign countries to urban areas of the United States, according to Richard Cardinal Cushing of Boston. .

"Years ago we thought only of foreign missions," the' Cardinal said. "Now the importance of the work in the big cities of our' country is bec'oming more and more important."

Urging a year-round effort by Boston Catholics to support mis­ sionary work, Cardinal Cushing said, "In many of. our' big cities, including Boston, there are thou­ sands of whites and Negroes who are affiliated with no church whatever."

MISHAWAKA (NC)-A gov­ ernment oHicial lashed out here in Indiana at critics of Catholic education and said Catholic schools are of "critical value."

Relief Agency Helps Developing Nations NEW YORK (Nc)-:rhe U. S. Catholic overseas relief agency is giving increasing emphasis to self-help projects designed to foster economic independence ill developing nations.

By Most Rev. Fulton J. Sheen, DoD.

Two girls from England visited Lourdes. They did not know each other and had not even seen each other until they lay side­ by-side on stretchers before the shrine of Our Lady. As the pro­ cession of the Blessed Sacrament came near, one girl prayed: "Oh Lord, this poor girl is suffering. Heal her and let me bear my pain." The other girl made exactly the same prayer. Both were cured. '

By Rt. Rev. Msgr. John S. Kennedy .

Jerusalem is a divided city. Part of it lies within Israel, part within Jordan. Running through it is no man's land bristling with guns and guards. Passage between the two sections is severely restricted. One can enter Israel from .Jordan, or Jordan from Is­ in Israel and prepares to rael, only through the so­ stay make the crossing into Jordan. called Mandelbaum Gat e.

The friends she has made in While actual and ancient Israel are strongly against her Rttempting the crossing. These include Freddy Hamilton, con­ nected with the British consul­ ate, who, at 55, is still tied to the apron strings of his mother, a masterful and half-mad dragon of a woman who writes him long, querulous letters to which he must make long, soothing replies.

These friends warn Barbara that she will be in great danger in Jordan. She has Jewish blood, and this, despite her having one ' Christian parent and being a baptized Christian he~elf -(with certificate to prove it), will ren­ der her subject to arrest and de­ portation at pest and possibly to quiet ex.tinction. ' Assumes Disguise But she is determined to visit the Holy Places, the chief of which, of course, are in Jordan, and to see Harry Clegg. Which reason carries more weight with her? For awhile, it is hard to say, but even when she learns that Clegg has gone to Rome to try to hasten a decision concern­ ing his first marriage, Barbara. inSists on going ahead with' her plan. . She crosses into Jordan., Almost at once, howeyer, she yields to the remonstrances of Freddy and certain .Arab ac­ quaintances of his, and aSsumes a disguise. She Is to make her tt'ur of the Holy Places dressed n. Arab costume ·,and, preteuding to·be the deaf mute servant'of one Suzi Ramdez;-·a. Uvely young Arab woman engaged in. all sorts. of, i 11 ega I , money-making schemes.

Paradoxes Relpaln The cream of the jest is evi­ dently just here: that, a person, , like' Barbara, in whom are mys­ teriously met the Jewish heri­ tages and the Christian, can visit a land sacred t(j' both Jews and Christians only if she appears to belie both heritages and takes on the semblance of an adherent of still another religion alto­ gether. Such is the mad conse­ quence of religious fanaticism.

But with individual problems solved and fates determined, the paradoxes of the Holy Land re­ main: the obsessions and the antipathies 'clung to in the name of God, the flowers which de­

light the tourist as indigenous although actually not so at all,

the shrines which range all the way from the unques.tionably . authentic to the outright fake, and the gamut of reactions on the part of pilgrims.

Miss Spark has caught some­ thing of the quicksilver, cha­ meonlike quality of the place, and has devised an elaborate and ' intricate narrative, told with in­ numerable flashbacks, which 11­ lustrates the comedy and tragedy there inextricably intermingled.

l~.·

God Love You

Spark's 'Mandelbaum Gate~ Elaborate, Intricate Tal,e

gates are blocked up, the one recognized connector is no gat~ ... all, but sim­ ply a small opening in the ugly walls of division. Signi­ ficantly, Muriel Spark has cho­ sen The Man­ delbaum Gat e as the title of her new, ambi­

tious novel dealing w,i t h t 'h e divisions, complexities and contradictions which obtain in the Holy Land (Knopf, $5,95). These' can. be taken as symbolic of the divi­ sions complexities and contra­ dicti~ns not only within the human family but also within the human person. . Although she is lost sight of for rather lengthy segments of the novel, and although, like other principal figures· in the book, she never stands forth as a fully rounded, fully explored character, Barbara Vaughan is undoubtedly the key to Miss Spark's intent.

Seeks Identity Barbara is an English spinster.. of 37. She has come tQ theJrol~.

Land on pilgrimage..and in order to visit her fiance, Harry CJ~gg, an archaeologist working in Jor-, dan,. on the Qumram exca.vlltion.s.

There's always more to it than Jew, Gentile, half-Jew, half­ Gentile. There's the human soul, the individual. Not 'Jew, Gentile' as one might say 'autumn, win­ ter.' Something unique and un­ repeatable." .

One element in her quest is finding out what she and Harry Clegg are going to do. She had always assumed that she was a person free of passion and des­ tined never to marry. But then, fluddeinly, she had met Clegg, a man of lower class background, and, quite improbably," they had fallen in love and become lovers.

There was an awareness of sin or. Barbara's part,' and a keen realization that she and HarrY inight never be able. to marry: In the Church. For he was a di­ vorced man. She was' bent on' inarrying him, yet she was pain­ fully conscious "of something absolutely undisplaceable in her nature, her Catholic faith."

Harry, to please her, has ap­ plied fora declaration of nullity concerning his first marriage; the case is before the Roman Rota; but there see~s little' pros-, pect of a favorable decision. . This is how things stand;' or sprawl, as Barbara concludes her

Others Need Help

We, too, perhaps, would more quickly be eared of our anxities, fears and problems. If we prayed for others more than for ourselves. Many sufferers have been healed of their disabilities when they forgot themselves anel helped someone else. We read In the Book of Job that "the Lord turned the captivity of Job when he prayed for his friends." And how many parables In the New Testa­ ment follow out this theme, "Do nnto others 'as you would have othel'll do unto you"!

Chaplain Stresses

Patriotism Virtue

PARRIS ISLAND (NC) - A Catholic naval chaplain believes "one of the evils of our day is the tendency to discredit patri­ otism and represent it as a vice almost in place of a virtue."

Rear Admiral Henry J'. Rotrige, principal speaker at a Memorial Field Mass at the Marine· Corps Recruit Depot here, commemo­ rating the. 190th anniversary of the Marine· Corps, asserted: "Patriotism does not lal:1el it­ self.. Like true piety, it reveals itself in works not in words; in deeds not in loud 'declarations. . It has revealed. itself. in the lives and deeds of the men to whom we pay tribute 'today."

Ordained in St. Louis in 1938, Admiral Rotrige was commis­ sioned a chaplain in the U. S. Navy on March 9, 1941. Pope Paul VI elevated him to the rimk of domestic prelate with the title of Right Reverend Monsignor on Feb. 26, 1964. He was appointed Rear Admiral on July 1, 1965 and appointed Director, Chaplains Division in the Bureau of Naval Personnel in Washington.

churches must pool many activities to eliminate "duplication of effort and wasteful competition."

Daniel D. Meaney, secretary­ treasurer of the National Coun­ cil of Catholic Men, spoke at a luncheon for United Church Men of the National Council of the Churches of Christ in America.

Meaney, a Corpus Christi econ­ omist, said: "I suggest that the NCCM and the National Council of Churches . should plan on doing much to­ gether, rather than separately.

"We have already worked well together in such things as reli­ gion and race conferences, lay missionary work. and laity for­ mation conferences. Let us ex­ pand this cooperation in such projects as laity formation kits, services to youth and aging, pov­ erty programs and ecumenical efforts such as NCCM's Grass­ roots Ecumenism Kit. As a national officer of NCCM, I bring you the assurance of our deep commitment to the idea of cooperation with you," Meaney stated. I suggest the sky's the limit for our sharing together in Christian witness and service."

AUSTIN (NC) - The Catholic bishops of Texas unanimously endorsed a proposition in Tues­ day's election to amend the state constitution to permit Texas to participate in federal funding for programs to aid the aged, the blind, the disabled and dependent children.

The Texas Catholic Conference office here said the bishops re­ viewed the proposition and urged its passage as a means to help the needy of Texas.

The proposition amends the constitution to meet require­ ments of the federal 'Medicare law establishing programs for medical care for the 'blind, dis­ abled, and families with depend­ ent children. Texas has no med­ ical aid program for these at present.

Blasts Ban on Use of Stadiums Bv Church-Related Schools ROCHESTER (NC)-The head of Citizens for Educational Free­ dom has lambasted a state offi­

clal's decision that public schook eannot rent football 8t<ldiums to teams fr 0 m church-related schools.

Paul W. Brayer, president of the state CEll' federation, called the ruling by Deputy State Com­ missioner of Education Edward B. Nyquist a "frightening shock."

He said that "without reason or necessity it exposes every phase of edu~ational cooperation to the threat of discrimination because of religion."

Nyquist held that state law bars use of public school ath­ letic facilities by church-related . schools because proceeds go to "a society, association or organ­ ization of a religious sect or de­ nomination." . Brayer said that "anyone fa­ millar with the operation of a high school athletic program is aware that admissions can never meet the expenses of the pro­ grams."

Lame Excuse "How then," he asked" -eBn they contribute to support oper­ ational costs of the classroom program, when they cannot sus-

Brayer charged that the ruling tells parents: "You are not en­ titled to the same rights and privileges of use of athletic fields as public school children even if you want to pay a fair rental fee. Religion is taught in your school. Therefore, you are denied use of the public f~ci~ties which you, as citizens, WIllingly : support with your tax dollars to assure the, normal, healthy en­ joyment of athletics."

Nyquist's ruling was requested by the Niagara Falls school dis­ trict. It had rented for '$125 a night the stadium of .La Salle High School, a public school, to Bishop Duffy High School for football games. However, after two years of this arrangement, the district suddenly held it il­ legal ~d Nyquist's opinion WIUI sought.

SANTA FE (NC)-An eighth­ grade civics club has taken on: the job of erasing a $200,000 deficit facing St. Vincent's Hos­ pital here in New Mexico. .

The eighth graders of CrIsto Rey (Christ the King) School are sending letters to New Mex­ icans and other citizens asking for contributions for the hospi­ tal, operated by ihe Sisters of Charity of Cincinnati.

Among those to whom the letters have gone are promi­ nent persons in the fields of reli­ gion, politics, sports and enter­ tainment-people like President Johnson, Richard Cardinal Cush­ ing of Boston, Walt Disney, Sandy Koufax, Willie Mays and Elvis Presley.

The hospital has been in finan­ cial difficulty for several yean because, as the city's only holt­ pital, it cares for all welfare an4 indigent patients.

Reject Tax This September voters reject­ ed a bill that would have levied a property tax to help Pa.Y med­ ical expenses of the indigent and needy.

St. Vincent's receives fund8 from the state welfare depart­ ment for care of welfare patients, but says the payments do not cover expenses incurred.

The hospital has asked the county to take over operation of its emergency room, but coun~ manager Sam Garcia feels theN is no legal way that this could be done.

The Presbyterian Medical Set'­ vices' advisory board is taking the issue to the New Mexico Council of Churches, to which this diocese belongs, to seek help for St. Vincent's.

The hospital has indicated that it may be forced to curtail some lervices unless it can obtaia additional funds.

BALTIMORE (NC) - Two thousand children in seven Bal­ timore parochial schools are par­ ticipating in an archdiocesan­ sponsored program of French language instruction for elemen­ tary school pupils.

Known as the Foreign Lan­ guage in Elementary Schools

(FLES) program, it is directed by the College 'of Notre Dame of Maryland and has five lay teachers. ChIldren get 9{\ min­ utes of foreign language instruc­ tion each week.

"We don't expect enough of the American child," Sister Madeleine commented, noting

that in Europe when a child en­ ters sixth grade he begins the study of his fourth language.

The FLES program here, in effect in grades three through seven in the participating schools, is based on the "audio­ lingual" method which stresses hearing and speaking French.
