Pope Says Essential Concept Is Renewal In his very announcement of the coming Holy Year 1975, His Holiness Pope Paul' VI spoke at some length on the basic aim and goal of the Jubilee: "It is. necessary to stress what is the essential concept of this Holy Year. It is the interior renewal of man': of the man who thinks and who in his thought has lost the certainty of truth; of the man who works and who in his work has realized that he is so extroverted that he no longer fully possesses communication with himself; of the man who enjoys life and who so assumes himself and has so many excitig ways to gain pleasurable experience that he soon feels bored and disillusioned. Man must be renewed from within, This is what the Gospel calls conversion, penance and a

Rome Pilgrimage N'ext Februa ry When the Holy Father Pope Paul VI formally opens the Holy Year on Christmas eve, December 24, 1974, the thrust of the Jubilee observance of the People of God will shift from local, diocesan scenes to Rome itself, the Eternal City. The year-long time of preparation in dioceses throughout the Universal Church will then have ended. The focal point for the reconciliation and renewal of God's People 'Qvill be in the very heart of Christendom. During 1975, as the pastoral document published by the Central Commission for the Holy Year notes, the Faithful will, in great numbers, undertake "the quest for a new meeting with God in the experience of contact with the Tombs of the Apostles Peter and Paul (who sum up also the memories of the other Apostles) whose bodies rest in their Turn to Page Twelve

change of heart. It is the process of self-rebirth. It is simple, like a clear courageous act of conscience, and at the same time complex, like a long, instructive and reforming apprenticeship. It is also a moment of grace, and one usually does not obtain grace without bowing one's head. And we do not think we err in detecting in modern man profound dissatisfaction, satiety coupled with insufficiency, unhappiness produced by false formulas for 'happiness, with which he is intoxicated, and dismay at not knowing how to "enjoy the thousand and one pleasures that Turn to Page Fifteen

Cronin, Bishop of Fall River, has made special arrangements for the intimate participation of the elderly and sickly residents of a number of Diocesan facilities in the final preparation for Holy Year 1975 during the coming Advent Season. Recognizing that many of the good people residing in Diocesan homes for the elderly would. be impeded from participating in local pilgrimages to speciallydesignated churches in the various geographic regions of the Diocese, Bishop Cronin has arranged for Holy Year Servi·ces at whiCh the Gift of the Indlligence may be gained in accord with' the following schedule: First Sunday of Advent, December 1st-Our Lady's Haven, Fairhaven Second Sunday of Advent, December 8th --.: Marian Manor, Taunton Third Sunday of Advent, December 15th-Madonna Manor, North Attleboro; Rose Hawthorne Home, Fall River Turn to Page Four

Weekly devotions will be planned in each regional site.

he would meet "a great number of active lay men and women, thoroughly dedicated to Christ and His Church." "I confess that the reality is far above my expectation," Arch· bishop Jadot. said. Noting that "the involvement of the laity in the total life of the Church raises some delicate problems," he said that we <:an not expect answers to ,them "without that learning that comes from experiences." In particular, he said, "bishops, priests and lay people all have to learn how to make pastoral and parish councils work." Commenting on priestly formation in the United States, Archbishop Jadot calIed for a greater emphasis on theology .and philosophy in seminary training. "We .need priests," he said, "with a deep theological culture, acustomed to serious thinking, trained to grasp not only. the 'how' but even more the 'why' of human events in the light of revelation." "A solid ~rounding in philosophy," he added, "is required for the development of the ability to make a critical evaluation of the discoveries' in the natural and social sciences."

WASHINGTON (NC) - Praising what he called the growing concern of the American Cath. olic Church with internatio~al social justice, Archbishop Jean Jadot, apostolic delegate in the United States suggested that "the ministry of justice must also be directed to social, political and economic leaders-to those who themselves do not suffer injustice or who may be the cause of the sufferings of others." "Perhaps, he continued, "we need a special pastoral approach toward those who are privileged because of their wealth, educa.Hon, culture and influence." He made his remarks Nov. 18' at the annual general meeting of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops (NCCB).Commenting on what he has seen of the Ame:rican Church in a little more than a year here, he said that "the most encouraging impression" he has received· come from letters from "priests, Religious and laity in response to our inquiries conicerning the selection of bishops." In almost every letter, he said, "the same desin~ is expressed, but perhaps most vividly by lay people and Sisters 'We need a bishop who is a man of God.'

Indulgence 'of. Holy Year -

The following Decree, promulgated in Rome 011 September 24, 1973, by the Sacred Apostolic Penitentiary, determines the spiritual works which are necessary to gain "The Gift of the Indulgence" in the various dioceses of the Universal Church on the pccasion of the Holy Year.

The Cardinal President of the Central Committee for the Holy Year has asked this Sacred Apostolk Penitentiary to determine what spiritual works are necessary to gain "the gift of the Indulgence," which the Holy Father has promised to reinforce the spirit of reconciliation and renewal, which are the characteristics of this Holy Year. Charged by the Sovereign Pontiff, the Sacred Penitentiary grants that, from the First Sunday of Advent of this year until the day when the Holy Year is solemnly initiated in Rome, the faithful of the individual local Churches can gain: 1. The Plenary Indulgence, in the times to be decided by the Episcopal ,Conferences, if they go on a pious pilgrimage to the cathedral church, or also to other churches determined by local Ordinary, in which a solemn community function is held; 2. The Plenary Indulgence, likewise in times to be decided by the Episcopal Conferences, if gathered in groups (for example, families, school pupils, workers, employees and professional workers, pious associations), they visit the cathedral or other

churches 'designated by the Ordinary, and remain there in pious meditation for a suitable time, concluding the visit with the recitation or singing of the Lord's Prayer and the Creed and with the invocation to the Blessed Virgin. 3. The Plenary Indulgence 'if, prevented by sickness or any other serious cause, they join spiritually in Ithe pious pilgrimage, offering to God their prayers and sufferings.

Many people feel that the practice of religion is not what it was or should be. They! seek for quick answers. If they were told to do something unusual they would listen with rapt, attention. But the l, answer now is what the answer has always been. The practice of religion is based on faith-on the acceptance of God and the things of God as the beginning and the goal and the means. There is no substitute f9r sanctity. A person must be, utterly committed to the fact that his perfectionl is the purpose of his life and in the process of becoming petter he fulfills himself naturally and supernaturally and rpakes better the community in which he lives.

And this is what the Bishops called ~m Ca.tholics to show forth in their lives·-to live their Faith in an efficacious' way by becomong holy, by taking the means of holiness, by accepting the grace that God holds out, by forming with GOd'S, help the more perfect image of Christ within ~neself.

Plan to Televise Rite of Opening The Holy Door VATICAN CITY (NC) - The ceremonial opening of the Holy Door at St. Peter's Basilica on Christmas Eve by Pope Paul VI to inaugurate the worldwide Holy Year will be televised globally under the direction of famed Italian motion picture director Franco Zeff.irelli. Although the full rite of the traditional opening of the Holy Door in the main atrium of St. Peter's has not yet been fully worked out, informed Vatican sources have indicated that the inauguration will be "complete· ly modernized" to meet the time limitations and attention nee1s of the modern world. The actual rite of opening the Holy Door, one 'of the five main doors of St. Peter's and the only door which remains closed for the usual 25-year period between Holy Years, has been cut to half an hour for TV viewing. It will begin precisely at 11 :30 P.M. Rome time. The full televised ceremony of Christmas Eve, beginning with the opening of the Holy Door, will also include Solemn Mass in St. Peter's celebrated by the ·Pope on the high altar. The technical details involved in the opening ceremonies are designed to stress the Churoh's openness to the "Reconciliation and Renewal" theme of this Holy Year, probably the last of the 20th century. The Pope will symbolicar~y tap the massive marble door facing onto the atrium or front porch of St. Peter's.

HORRESDON (NC) - A return to the penitential practice' of regular fasting as a Christian response to the current world food crisis was urged on British churches at the first meeting here of the assembly of the restructured British Council of Churches (BCC). The BCC assembly added this cX:~oJrtation to a resolution call· ing on the British and Irish governments to take steps at both national and international levels to ease the situation of the developing countries. The return to fasting had been proposed by the Student CI.ristian Movement. Member churches of the BCC are urged "to utilize the Christian tradition of self·denial, such as regular fasting, in order to express in monetary and physical terms tbzir deep-rooted involvement with their brethren who are dying because of our society's selfishness." Warning the BCC that they could not afford just to make resolutions and shunt the responsibility for action on to governments when the world had only 285 days' supply of grain, the Student Christian Movement delegate said a group of Cambridge University students had begun fasting every ~riday in memory of Christ's deatb. Money they save on lunch and supper goes to a fund for the developing countries, he said.

the back of her hand presse:l up against her nose. ,she feels the sign of peace is the happiest part of the Mass. She can freely grasp someone's hand and share all the joy within her. She has such a charm, such a winning smile, that even the staunchest anti-sign-of-j:>eacers are unfrozen a bit. Love Me? Bobbie has no reservations about throwing her arms around my neck, giving me a hug that takes my breath away, and ask, ing, "Love me?" Her biggest problem with Mass is that she gets sleepy, especially if a homily runs long and dry. She starts by leaning against my arm. Her head slips down as she starts to doze. Unable to get quite comfortable, she crawls into my lap, curls her head into my shoulder and goes sound asleep. This would be okay except that she has a congenital respiratory problem. When Bobbie sleeps, she snores. . . loud enough to be heard several pews away. ,People turn around to see what the disturbance is, and generally smile with a wistful indication they wish they had her lack of inhibitions. She's still quite short, even though she's eight years old. When everyone stands at Mass, she can't see a thing. She immediately asks to be picked up. When the priest .prays, "Lift

Wanted Blessing In preparation for her First Communion, I started taking Bobbie up to the altar rail with me. It takes a long time to teach her anything, and I felt the gradual training that she belonged at the Communion rail would be valuable. A young priest who has worked with her CCD class always stops for her, lays his hand on her head and prays, "Bless this child." She mimics my receiving ... but has been content with his blessing. The other Sunday, a priest who d,idn't know her was distributing Communion. I indicated that she couldn't receive, so he simply skipped her. She ducked under the altar rail and started after him. Grabbing the tail of her coat, I hauled her back. She pulle:l away from me, and sat down in the middle of the aisle, absolutely indignant. "HE FORGOT ME!" She reluctantly returned to the pew with me', pouting over the injustice. Her sulking lasted about two minutes ... until the usher came for the collection. As he handed me the plate, she took his hand, kissed it, and whispered, "Peace." Most of us love ushers when they find a seat for us in a crowded church. How many love them when they pass the plate? From the sparkle in his eyes, I guess the only one is a little retarded angel ... with a halo slightly askew from having just crawled under the altar rail to go after her blessing.

Texias Baptists Oppose Abortion AMARILLO (NC)-The Texas Southern Baptist Convention, the largest stelte convention of the 12.2-million member Southern Baptist denomination, unanimously passed a resolution abhorring "the widespread practice of abortion, its commercializa· tion, and exploitation by irre· sponsible abortion advocates." The resolution was introduced by the Rev. Robert Holbrook, na· tional coordinator of Baptists for Life, and the Texas Christian Life Commission waS supportive of the resolution. The resolution said the Jan. 22. 1973, U.S. Supreme Court deciion overturning most state restrictions on abortion "has made difficult the legal protection of the unborn, and made their deaths possible up to the time of birth." The resolution blamed "selfish sin" for "the taking of many innocent lives simply because they are unwanted" and said the "same ethic, whoich is totally situational, today appeals for abortion as simply another birth control option and also advocates taking of other human lives in HOSPITALRECIPIENT OF SPECIAL GIFTS: Proceeds a blatant violation of the Chrisfrom annual Candlelight Ball amounting to $10,000 and the tian concept of the sanctity of proceeds of $2,000 from St. Anne's Hospital Gift Shop are life."

United States Divorce -Rate Rises Sharply WASHINGTON (NC) - The American divorce rate rose· as much in the period 1970·1974 as it did in the whole decade of the 1960's, according to a U. S. Census Bureau report. The higher divorce rate was l'vcn greater among those under 45. the report said. The report cited an estimate, by the National Center for Health Statistics that 925,000 people were divorced in the year prior to March, 1974, an increase of some 200,000 over the pre\'ious year. The report also found that more young people-those under 35-are remaining single. Partly as a result of these two trends, the percentage of house/ holds headed by "primary indi\'iduals"-persons who maintain their own homes while living alone or with non-relatives-has risen to 46 per cent, an increase of about 25 per cent since 1970. There' were about 2.3 million men and 3.6 million women who were divorced and not remarried 'in'the U. S. in 1974, aecording to the report. This represents 63 divorced persons for every 1,000 persons who were partners in intact marriages in thiJ same year. The rate was 47 per 1,000 in 1970 and 35 per 1,000 in 1960, the report said., . The ratio for' those' under' 45 was 66 per 1,000 in 1974 cam.pared to 30 per 1,000 in I 96~. 0

Heads of Households There were 49 'divorcE'd men per 1,000 married men in 1974 and 77 divorced women per 1,000 married in 1974. The rate was 58 per 1,000 for whites and 112. per "1,000 for blacks and members of other races, the report said. Eighty-one, per cent of divorced women and 61 pE'r cent of divorced men were heads of households, the report said, but four times as many women wert' heads "of households which included children or other relaUves. The percentage of persons under 35 who are single has increased sharply, while the percentage of those over 35 has decreased sharply, according to. the report. . In 1974 54.8 per cent of the men under 35 and 44.5 per cent of the women who had never been married, compared to 50.7 and 37.6 per cent, respectively, in 1960. The greatest difference was an 11.2 per cent increase of single' women aged 20-24.

Pope Paul Asks Catholics Trust In Holy Year vATICAN CITY (NC)-Pope Paul has suggested that reluctance to enter into the spirit of the Holy Year is due to an identity crisis among Catholics. "Happy are those who enjoy normal self-mastery and can. unhesitatingly. undertake the ascetic effort proposed by the Holy . Year program," the Pope told a weekly general audience. "But not all, even in the heart of the Church, are in such a favorable state. It seems that a state of uncertainty, an inner bewilderment, a lack of sureness about one's' own person, prevents an easy and trusting welcome of the Holy Year's spiritual program." The Pope called such uncertainty "a fairly common phenomenon today," and noted that it had been given the name "identity crisis." He said: "When doubt is not simply methodical and hypothetical, that is to say a method of research and a process of reasoning, but rather an internal and pessimistic battle with one's normal certainty, it can become a whirlpool undermining and engulfing the logical and moral fortress of the mind." The Pope said doubt "has become common and even fashionable today." 'Torch in Hand' He said contestation of social structures by today's youth "can perhaps stem fr-om the discovery of the logical weakness of modern lay thought and of authority usurped through false and facile dogmas." He continued: "}<or that reason we now are anxious to recall how contrary to the genius of Catholicism, to the kingdom of God, to indulge in doubt and uncertainty about the doctrine of the Faith. "Faith indeed invites us to a continual and progressive study, but starting from sure truths to arrive at other truths." He called for a restoration of confidence in the meaning of man given Catholics by their faith. With that confidence Catholics can enter the Holy Year "torch in hand, that is .with confidence in ourselves, in who we are, in whence we came and whither we are going."

Native of St. Michael's Parish, Fall River, Publishes Study of Portuguese Pioneers Miss Belmira E. Tavares, a native and lifelong resident of St. Michael's par.ish, Fall River, has written a book on the Portu· guese contribution to American life and culture. Titled "Portuguese Pioneers in tbz United States," it concentra,tes on the New Bedford and Fall River areas. without neglecting such nationally famous men and women of Portuguese descent as John Philip Sousa, "the march king," U.S. Supreme Court Justice Benjamin Cardoso, and author John Dos Passos. A feature of the 180 page book, which took Miss Tavares four years to write, is an indepth study of Portuguese churches in the Fall River diocese. for which Miss Tavares spent many I-.,ours studying parish records. After a chapter devoted· to St. John the Baptist Church, New Bedford, mother church of the Portuguese in the United States, Miss Tavares records the histories of Fall River's seven Portuguese parishe~, including ~nec dotes and biograryhical notes about m.any members of each. Longtime Educator Born in ,Fall River "just prior to the 20th century," Miss Tavares left scbool at age 14 after completing the ninth grade, to work in a cctton mill and aid in supporting her family. Nevertheless, she continued to desire further education and eventually was able to return to high school, graduating in 1919 with honors. the first girl from her parish to complete 'her secondary education. Continuing her education at Pembroke College, Harvard, Columbia University and the universities of Coimbra and Lisbon in Portugal, she earned a master's degree from Columbia and certification as a Portuguese language expert from Coimbra.

The candidates are Sister Alexandra and Sister Felicity. Sister Alexandra seems the certain choice, She is an aristocrat who speaks exquisitely of traditional values.

Government and Business' Undermine Cities Health Africa Churches Ask More Responsibility l

By REV. ANDREW M. GREELEY

where the slums came from. Take now the famous Forest Hills case in New York. Read Mario Cuomo's brilliant and sensitive book, "Forest Hills Diary." Forget the foolish foreword and the pompous afterward, which ,the editor-the ever "with it" Jason Epstein - added to the hook. Study Cuomo's agonized account of how one tries to shape a compromise when urban government makes a foolish decision from which it can't back down. The unique thing about Forest Hills was not that it was the first nei~hborhood to be threatened with destruction by a combination of liberal ideology and central planning indifference: It was rather the first Jewish neighborhood where members of the middle class responded to city hall decisions the way Catholic ethnics responded previously (and the way South Boston is responding now). Cuomo's portrait of the complexity of urban life, the charade of the democratic decision-making process, and the dangers for the man caught in the middle is enough to make anyone hestitate before entering a career in urban politics. Form of Racism? Or visit the northwest Bronx where a cluster of Catholic parishes under the leadership of Bishop Patrick Aherne are trying to stabilize what is left of their neighborhoods. One would think that the city and its financial institutions faced with the prospect of all of the Bronx hecoming a ghettoized jungle would warmly support such efforts. In fact, the financial institutions continue to redline the community, and the city government continues to pressure landlords to convert their apartments Lo welfare usc. The short-run goals of the hanks and the government become a threat to the long-run health of the city, which neither the bureaucrats nor the bankers seem very worried about. When the neighborhoods are gone, the Bronx will be gone. Then what? But isn't all of this concern about neighborhoods just a subtle form of racism? As long as liberal ideologues and their Catholic allies repeat this mindlesss question the cities will continue

racist or not, the fundamental problem still remains: keep on destroying the neighborhoods and you will destroy the city. People Are Frightened I make no case for racism; but a moral denunciation of it is no substitute for actions to save the city. In fact, there is undoubtedly some racism in the northwest Bronx (though most of the neighborhoods there are already integrated by middle-class blacks), some very ugly racism in South Boston, and some racism in Forest Hills. But most of the people in such neighborhoods are not pathological or idological racists. They arc simply frightened, and they have good reason,to be. To refuse to listen to their valid fears is a sure way to drive them into the hands of the tiny hard core of real racists in the community. This, o( course, is just what liberal suburban judges and liberal city planners who live in high rise fortresses are doing. Property value insurance, safety on the streets and in the schools, neighborhood stabllization, peace with one's neighbors, someone downtown who really listens-that's all the people in the neighborhoods want. If you could guarantee them that, there would be little resistance to integration. It's a funny thing, but that's what most blacks want, too. They want it a lot more than they want bussing or scatter-site ' public housing. 漏 1974, Universal Press Sy'd'c't

ROME (NC)-At th.e end of October's international Synod of Bishops, participants from Africa and Madagascar published an appeal for "co-responsibility between churches" to meet problems of evangelization. The African and Malagasy statement drew attention to "the aspiration of Africans to take into their own ,hands from now on their own destiny in the development of the continent." But Cardinal Maurice Otunga of Nairobi, Kenya, emphasized in presenting the declaration to the press Oct. 26: "We still need and want missionaries and mission assistance in personnel and material aid."

In its stead they adopt the theology of incarnation." (The theology of adaptation is understood as an attempt to adapt' the theology traditional in the West to other cultures. The theology of incarnation is understood as a more radical attempt to explain the basic teachings of the Catholic religion in terms of habits of. thought traditional in each culture.) "The young Churches of Africa and Madagascar cannot refuse to face up to this basic demand. They accept the fact of theological pluralism with the unity of fait:h, and constantly they must encourage, by all means, African theological research."

OFFICIAL DIOCESAN PILGRIMAGE TO ROME Under the Leadership of His Excellency

Plan Enforcement Of Anti-Smut Laws ELIZABETH (NC)-Most law enforcement officers in New Jersey apparently intend to wait ,for citizen complaints before taking action against pornography, but officials in Union County have mapped a concerted program to eliminate as much obscenity as possible. They are acting in the wake of a federal court ord~r lifting an injunction against enforcement of the New Jersey antiobscenity statutes. That' ruling' was followed by a meeting of the state's 21 prosecutors to develop a uniform approach toward enforcement. Under the plan developed here by representatives of most of the 20 municipalil!ies in Union County, warnings will firs,t be issued to store owners and theater managers believed to be in violation of 'fhe law. Where the warnings are ignored, summonses would be issued and processed by a specially designated officer in each municipal police department. This would be followed by a review by assistant prosecutor Elson Kendall, presentation to a grand jury and review by the state attorney general's office.

The bishops pointed to an insufficient integration of Christianity "into African ways, customs and tradition." They - stressed a need for' greater Africanization of the Church's structures. "Our theological thinking must remain faithful to the authentic tradition of the Church, and, at the same time, be attentive to the life of our communities and respectful of our traditions and languages, that is, of our philosophy of life. '\Following this idea of mission, the Bishops of Africa and Madagascar consider as being completely out of date the socalled theology of adaptation.

Mass are called, is now com· pletely apparent. The solemn Eucharistic Prayer of Mass is now immediately preceded by a beautiful Preface which speaks of love with which Christ has filled us with jpy. It so happens that the scriptural lessons for the Fourth Sunday of Advent for this year are profoundly influenced by the role of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the great mystery of salvation accomplished 'in the ,coming of her Divine Son. The Old Testament reading for this Mass tells of the foreshadowing of the .Incarnation in the Isaian prophecy of ". . . the virgin who will conceive and bring forth a son ..." The Gospel passage for this Sunday, taken from the ac-. count of Matth-ew, tells of the virginal conception of Jesus by Mary. The renewal of mankind and the reconciliation of men with Almighty God and with one another stems, of course, from the redemptive intervention of a loving God in. our history which came at the Incarnation. These goals of Holy Year 1975 are the fruits of the Incarnation, hopefully to be I"ichly and widely shared by the :FaitMui. The in· tercession of the Blessed Mother is most profound in obtaining

these graces, as .pope Paul specifically mentioned in a formal address which he delivered a year ago on the Feast of the Ascension. Speaking of the Holy Year, and identifying Mary as the "collaborator of reconcilia· tion," the Holy Father sought her powerful intercession for the Jubilee Year, praying that she would "... ask her Son to grant to all our brethren and sons and daughters the grace of this Holy Year, to renew and preserve them." Thus it will be that in the Diocese and throughout the Universal Church, the Advent Season will be the final stage of prep· aration for Holy Year 1975, a time t.hat will be as rich in graces and blessings for God's people as was the very season of the Incarnation itself.

ROME (NC) - The chief Vat· ican delegate; to the World Food Conference has announced he:rc that, by decision of Pope Paul VI, the Holy See will contribute $100,000 to any fund which the confer,ence may set up for tbe development of farming. During a committeee session at the United Nations-sponsore,d conference, Archbishop Age)s· tino Ferrari-Toniolo said: "I am authorized to announce that by decision of the Holy Father the Holy See has set aside $100,000 as a symbolic contribution to any action that this conference might decide on." He explained that the money would go to the conference for "whatever formula will be adopted to intensify aid, to' rural develop'ment. .. For Good Will The archbishop said he had been instructed to make the announcement at a point several days before the conference's ,close in order to "join with and stimulate all good will, ,so that' 'a concrete and substantial conclusion may be arrived at." The conference had before it a number of proposals regarding establishment of a world fund to promote agricultural develop· ment, food production and fer· tiJoizer output. The Vatican con· tribution would go toward such a fund.

Pope Says Continued from Page One civilization offers him in abundance. In other words, man needs an interior renewal ... "Now the Holy Year is ori' ented precisely to this personal and interior renewal, which under certain aspects is also ex· terior. It is an easy and at the same time extraordinary therapy which should bring spiritual well·being to every conscience and indirectly, at least to some extent, to the attitude of society. This is the general theme of t~e next Holy Year, which is also . centered upon another special theme that is oriented to practical living: reconciliation. "The term, 'reconciliation,' evokes the opposite concept of a break. What break would we have to mend in order to reach reconciliation which is the condition for the desired renewal of the Jubilee? What break? But it is not perhaps enough to use this word reconciliation, which involves a whole program, to realize that our life is disturbed by too many breaks, too much disharmony, too much disorder to be able to enjoy the gifts of personal and collective life according to their ideal finality? We need above all to reestablish a genuine, vital and happy relationship with God, to be reconciled with him in humility and love, so that from this first basic harmony the whole world of our experience may express a need and acquire a virtue of reconciliation in char.ity and justice with men, to whom we immediately give the new title of 'brothers.' Moreover, reconciliation takes place in other vast and very real areas: within the ecclesial community itself, in society, in the relations among nations, in ecumenism, in the sphere of peace and so forth. If God permits us to celebrate the Holy Year, it will have many things to tell us in this regard." Pope Paul VI announces the Holy Year, May 9, 1973

CITY OF GOD: All is in readiness at La Salette Shrine, Attleboro, for thousands of pilgrims expected to visit its annual Christmas Illuminations. Theme for this year is "A Dream Come True" and visitors will find the Christmas Crib in the midst of a "City of God" outlined in lights.

Crib Blessing at LaSalette on Sunday Children from Mt. St. Joseph School, Fall River, will present a Christmas pageant and provide music for the ceremony of the Blessing of the Crib at La Salette Shrine, Attleboro, at 4:15 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 1. The program will open the Christmas Illumination display at the shrine, which annually draws tbousands of visi·tors from all parts of New England. Lights will, however, be turned on for the first time at 8:3.0 p.m. the previous night, following evening Mass at the shrine. Theme for the 1974 display is "A Dream Come True," and Rev. Bernard Baris, M.S., assistant program director at the Attleboro shrine, said in explaining it, "All people have dreams. Some come true, and many do not. But the one dream that all men can hold

1200 Students Fast EASTON - More than 1.200 Stonehill College students fasted Thursday, Nov. 21, in a demonstration of concern for the famine-stricken populations of the world. According to student organizers. those participating in the fast contributed $1,700 to a fund for agricultural development in countries hit by starvation. "Not since the protests against the Vietnam War have the students at Stonehill shown this kind of activism," remarked George J. Hagerty, student government president and an organizer of the "Stonehill Community Fast Day." "This is the largest turnout of students for tbis type of event that I've ever seen in my four years at the college," added Hagerty. The college has an enrollment of 1,630 students. Student organizers had origi. nally thought the fast would be a success if 500 students partici· pated, Hagerty said. Less than 100 students-most of them on special diets for health reasons~had lunch in the college's dining center last Thursday. Normally more than 1,000 students purchase meals during tbe noon hour. Asked what he attributed the success of the fast to, Hagerty

said, "For the last couple of years students have been looking inward, preoccupied with their own personal concerns. I think they have begun to look outward and have become aware of the terrible problem of hunger facing millions of people. The success of the fast shows that students really w~nt to help in a tangible way." The fast began Wednesday midnight at a special liturgical service and continued for 24 hours. Concluding the fast was a two-hour vigil in the college's student center. The vigil included discussions of world hunger and what actions individuals can take to alleviate the suffering. The fast was broken when students ate bread baked by the participants. According to Thomas P. Duffy, student newspaper editor and an organizer of the fast, the $1,700 raised last Thursday will be contributed to Oxfam-America, a national organization concerned with world hunger. Oxfam-America with headquarters in Boston is the American branch of the British-based Oxford Famine Relief Committee. Money donated to OxfamAmerica will be used to augment long-term agricultural helf-help projects in Asia, South America and Africa.

to, that all men can share, is Christ." City of God Rev. Andre Patenaude, M.S.. program director, added that this year's illuminations will carry out the dream theme and added that as Catholics enter the Year of Reconciliation proclaimed by Pope Paul, "an outward proclamation of Christ's presence in this confused world is needed by all." Display highlights will include four 35-foot angels at the main shrine' entrance and a 60-foot high "City of God" in whose heart will be located the Crib, with Mary, Joseph, the Wise Men and a number of live animals. P.i1grims will en!ter the city -through a simulated stone archway bearing the words "0 City of God." Visitors will be welcomed at the shrine from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily during the Christmas minations. Lights will be turned on at 5 p.m. daily except for

In The Black ST. PAUL (NC)-The archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis has closed its books on the 1973-74 fiscal year in the black for the first time in its six-year history of public audits. The See's sixth public financial audit showed a surplus of $17,048, according to the Minneapolis accounting firm of Boulay, Huetmaker, Zibell and Co., which prepared the audi·t.

Monday, when they will remain dark due to the energy cris·is. Also due to the crisis, the illumination season bas been reduced by one week and by one hour each day, said Father Patenau·de. It will continue from Saturday through January 1, with multimedia presentations scheduled at 4:30, 6:30 and 8:30 p.m. daily, and Masses at 12:10, 5 and 7:30 p.m. Christmas concerts will be presented periodically throughout the season.

ORADELL (NC)-Bergen Cath· olic High School here has filed a complaint with the New Jersey Civil Rights Commission charging that by-laws of the Northern New Jersey Interscholastic League are discriminatory. The commission has accepted the case, which means that a formal hearing on the merits of the complaint will be held. This is believed to be the first tase involving a cOl'llplaint filed by a Catholic institution. Bergen Catholic, a regional school for boys operated by the Newark archdiocese, has applied for admission to the league on several occasions. It has always been rejected because league bylaws provide that "membership shall be restricted to public schools of North Jersey." The league, made up mostly of larger public high' schools in Bergen and Pasaaic Counties, is the oldest continuing athletic conference in the state. Its founding even predates the establi!>hment of the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association, the governing body for scholastic athletics in the state. Bergen Catholic has presented its case now because a vacancy is due to develop in the 10school league with the withdrawa1 of Garfield High School.
