from public schools in the wake of its 1962 and 1963 rulings against prayer and Bible reading in the schools.

The answer appears to be that the court has drawn a dividing line between religious exercises properly so-called~like prayer and Bible reading - and cere­ monies in which religion is pres­ ent only by way of allusion-as in the case of the flag pledge.

Brought by Freethinkers The challenge dismissed by the Supreme Court was brought before it in September by an organization' called the Free­ thinkers of America. The Free­ thinkers contended that the Con­ stitution's ban on an establish­ ment of religion was violated by having children in public schoolll say the words "under God" 811 part of the flag pledge.

The case originated.Jn 1956 in Port Richmond, N. Y. The New York Court of Appeals, highest in the state, last June unanimously upheld lower court rulings in favor of the practice.

In appealing to the Supreme Court, the Freethinkers argued that the lower court rulings were "inconsistent" with the high court's prayer decisions.

However, last month the at­ torneys general of 30 states argued the contrary in a joint amicus curiae (friend of the court) brief filed with the Su­ preme Court.

1962 Decision • They quoted a section from the Supreme Court's 1962 deci­ sion which barred recitation of a 22-word nonsectarian prayer in New York public schools.

There the court said: ''There is of course nothing in the decision reached here that is Inconsistent. with the fact that school children and others are officially encouraged to express love for our country by reciting historical documents such as the Declaration of Independence which contain references to the Deity or by singing officially es­ poused -anthems which include the composer's professions of -faith in a Supreme Being, or with the fact that there are many manifestations in our pub­ lic life of belief in God. ­ "Such patriotic or ceremonial occsasions bear no kue resem­ blance to the unquestioned reli­ gious exercises that the State of New York has sponsored in this instance (the 22-woni prayer)."

Invite! 10,000 to Baptism LEEDS (NC)-!ren thousand Catholics here in England are being invited to littend a bap­ tism in one of the city churches.

The priest will perform the sacrament in full view of the whole congregati.)n who will make all the reSpl)nSes. This is the opening move in a local drive to get Catholics to take greater inter,~st in Church affairs.

After the Baptism on the first night comes Matrimony on the second. This, as the local priests do not want to rullh people into

marriage, will be a renewal of marriage vows.

The third night will be con­ eerned with Penance and will be aimed at the lapsed.

Test of SchOol Grants Begins In Maryland ANNAPOLIS (NC)-Hear­ ings have begun in Anne Arundel Circuit Court on a 8uit that may write a definitive chapter orr the legal­ Ity of using public funds for ehurch-affiliated colleges.

The suit challenges the con­ stitutionality of 1962 and 1963 Maryland laws allocating match­ ing grants to four colleges to help finance construction of sci­ ence halls and dormitories.

Challenging the legislation as • violation of both state and Federal constitutions is the Hor­ ace Mann League, a by-invita­ tion-only association of public achools administrators.

The National Education Asso­ eilltions executive committee has pledged $15,000 over three years to' help defray the cost of the Mann League's suit. The NEA is the nation's biggest educational group.

At issue are these grants of the Maryland Legislature: $500,­ 000 for a science building and dining hall at Western Maryland College, a Methodist institution; $750.000 for a scieince building at St. Joseph's College, Catholic; $500,000 for a dormitory at Hood ColI e g e, United Church of Christ; and $750,000 for a science building at Notre Dame College, Catholic.

Each school must raise an equal amount themselves in order to get the state assistance.

The Mann League charges the grants constitute an establish­ ment of religion forbidden by the U. S. Constitution, that tax­ payers are being deprived of their properly without due proc­ ess of law and that the Mary­ land Constitution's Declaration of Rights is violated because taxpayers are being compelled, to contribute to "a place of wor- . ship."

Deduct $7.5, Billion For Contributons WASHINGTON (NC) - Reli­ gious organizations received the biggest share of the $7.5 billion listed as charitable contributions

by Federal income taxpayers who itemized deductions on their 1962 individual tax returns.

According to a report from the Internal Revenue Service $4.6 billion was listed as contribu­ tions to churches, missions and other religious organizations.

The $7.5 billion does not rep­ resent all the amounts donated by taxpayers to religious causes in 1962. It does not include con­ tributions made by nearly 36 million taxpayers who claimed the standard deduction rather than itemizing them, IRS said.

Plan Welcome Home For Holy Father ROME (NC) - Even before Pope Paul left for his trip to the Eucharistic Congress in Bombay, the Vicariate of Rome was mak­ ing elaborate plans to welcome him on his return tomorrow.

Members of parishes along his route from the airport to the Vatican are expected to be out in force to greet him. It is ex­ pected' that the Pope will pause along the way to receive the homage of parish priests and various parochial assQj::iations.

Bishop Connolly To Offer Jubilee Ma~s' In St. Stanislaus Church, Fall River , The all-day program of the 65th jubilee of St. Stanislaus Parish, Fall River, will open with a Pontifical Mass at 11 o'clock celebrated by Bishop Connolly. Following the Mass, a solemn service marking.the closing of Forty Hours Devotion will be conducted. At 6 o'clock Sunday evening, a banquet will be held and will be followed by a ball.

Rev. Felician Plichta, O.F.M. Conv., pastor of Holy Cross Par­ ish, Fall River, will serve as master of ceremonies at the banquet.

Rt. Rev. Msgr. Stanslaus Sypek of Emmanuel College,' Boston, will be the preacher at the Mass.

A Holy Hour will be con­ ducted Saturday night at 7:15 wit h Rev. Peter Smigiel, C.S,M.A., speaking in Polish and Rev. John P. Driscoll, assistant general manager of The Anchor, delivering the sermon in English.

In the' year 1895, many fam­ ilies arrived in the United States from their native Poland and Fall River soon had a Polish group. Always strong in their faith, the newly arrived families first worshipped at St. Mary's Church, Fall River, now the Cathedral.

But within three years the new parish was established and the first baptism was registered on Oct. 21, 1898, while the cor­ nerstone of the Church was laid on Feb. 26, 1899.

FATHER KASZYNSKI "fhe first two pastors were Rev. Peter Guzik and Rev. Jo­ seph Ziemba from Chicago. In the Summer of 1902, Rev. Peter Basinski ,became the, spiritual leader to the 300 families of Polish descent and remained as pastor for 8 years.

tion of St. Felix, commonly called Felician Sisters, still staff­ ing the school, lived at the start on the second floor of the school.

Their present convent on Broad­ way was provided by Father Basinski's successor, Rev. Law­ rence Malecki, who served as pastor from 1910 to 1914.

In' 1914, when Rev. John Nowicki became pastor, the parish numbered 800 families.

Following four years of service, Father Nowicki was succeeded 'by the present pastor emeritus, Rev. Hugo Dylla, who was active pastor until June, 1962.

During Father Dylla's active pastorate, additions were made to the Church and a complete renovation took place following a disastrous fire in 1951.

In 1962, Rev. Robert S. Kas­ zynski, ordained in 1960, was appointed administrator.

During the past months three major projects were completed for the jubilee celebration. New stained glass windows were in­

stalled, the exterior of the rec­

tory renovated and a, 40 foot fiberglass steeple was erected

on the tower.

VATICAN CITY (NC) Atrocities reported from the Congo are "blood-thirsty in the extreme, surpassing pre­ cedent," the Vatican City daily L'Osservatore Romano said in an editorial. It was the second consecutive day the newspaper had commented on Congo events.

"All of us * * * can deduct from the horrors of these days the vision of a social coexistence in which the natural law and progress in liberty are replaced by civil war as a solution to con­ troversies," said the editorial.

"It cannot be said these horri­ ble episodes were prompted by discordant, imponderable groups.

They have rather been promoted to become' a symbol and an in­ strument of definite political aims and ideological claims."

"The Congo is certainly an extreme case. Such bloodthirsty orgies, thank God, have not oc­ curred in many of the countries in the East where there has been internal conflict. But the fact remains there is at the root of present day crimes an illusion or pretense of placing organized violence and killing hate at the service of a political cause * • ."

This is one of the directions given in a booklet prepared in Hanoi, capital of Red-ruled North Vietnam, for the use of Viet Cong cadres in the south.

Copies of this booklet were seized when a Vietnamese army unit raided a communist propaganda base in "Zone D," some 30 miles north of Saigon, ih December, 1962.

The officer who led the raid, a Buddhist, showed the captured lit.erature to a Catholic friend.

During the so-called "religious crisis" of last year and this, the Catholic recalled what he had been shown. According to him: The booklet, marked "Highly

The conmittee says "religious leaders, educators and govern­ ment officials should join in urg­ ing film industry leaders to pro­ duce a greater number o:t family films."

-It stated that no religion offered such good opportunities for infiltration as Buddhism, be­ cause it has no real hierarchy and its doctrines are vague.

Hence, according to the booklet, the communists felt they had their greatest success in worm­ ing their way into Buddhist ranks.

Avoid Detection But the cadres were to ovel"­ look no religion. Working on Catholics called for special care.

Back in 1945-46, the booklet pointed out, the Vietnamese communists had enlisted some Catholics on their side. But these were mostly Catholics in noto­ riously bad standing, who there­ fore had little or no influence.

Father Considine Sees New Order In Latin America

Modernistic Church Collapses in Britain GARFORTH (NC)-An ultn modern Catholic church col­ lapsed unexpectedly in this Yorkshire town only 10 days before it was to be formally opened. No one was injured.

Many local residents had dis­ approved of the structure, built largely of wood and glass at a ­ cost of $122,(}(}(}. Disaster hit St. Benedict's Church when its flat roof fell in with a roar that shook neighboring houses. Only one wall was left standing.

WASHINGTON (NC) ­ -Latin America is changing 80 rapidly into a society so different that leaders of authority do not hesitate to label • a new society," Father John S. Considine, M.M., director of the Latin America Bureau, Na­ tional Catholic Welfare Confer­ ence, said here.

Father Considine, a New Bed­ ford native, spoke at the annual Pan American Mass, celebrated at St. Patrick's church by Arch­ ~ishop Egidio Vagnozzi, Apos­ tolic Delegate in the United States. Diplomats, government officials and other dignitaries attended the Thanksgiving Day Mass for Latin American repub­ lics.

Reminding his hearers that North and South America to­ gether constitute only one-eighth of the world's population, Father Considine said people and na­ tions should have greater con­ cern and respect for one another in "this new day of elbow;-to­ elbow living on our globe."

It was in Latin America that considerations of the race prob­ lem originated to give the West elear vision of Christian social teaching on race, the Maryknoll priest said. He referred to the preaching of a Spanish friar, Padre Antonio de Montesinos, who 19 years after ,the discovery of America gave European con­ sciences food for thought by de­ fending the human dignity of the American Indian.

New Social Structure Social problems are more cen­ tral than religious considerations in Latin America, Father Consi­ dine said. "In this new day we must rid ourselves of past no­ tions about the Church in Latin America. She is no longer to be identified with an exclusive landed aristocracy, with bygone political oligarchies, with an op­ pressive status quo."

As early as 1932, he said, the bishops of 'Chile urged Catholics to announce the socio-economic doctrines that stem from the Gospel. He cited the 1963 state­ ment of the Archbishop of Are­ quipa that a strong political ac­ tion by the Church is of the ut­ most urgency.

Also, in 1963, bishops of the 1'70 dioceses of Brazil called for a decisive and urgent transfor­ mation to a new social structure where the human personality will possess freedom and the means to a dignified way of life, Father Considine said.

Election Dispels Block Vote Myth NEW YORK (NC)-Election of Robert F. Kennedy as U. S. Senator from New York was seen here as "clear evidence that there is no Jewish bloc vote to be pandered to or delivered by any Jewish organization."

The American Council for Sudaism made this observation in a post-election analysis of New York City votes in the race between Kennedy and Sen. Ken­ neth B. Keating.

The organization said it was non-partisan with regard to the support of either candidate but 1Was greatly concerned with ap­ pealt; made during the campaign to so-called "Jewish" issues.

The council, a national organ­ ization of American Jews that hold that nationality and relig­ ion are separate, asserting that "pandering to the voters' Jew­ ish affiliation is a form of big­ otry in reverse." It said that al­ though Senator Keating had "made the strongest appeal in, history to Jewish voters as Jews," he had made only small gains amon, Jewisb wterv .

Scholarship Fund Needs Support

Enthusiasm

The enthusiasm that greeted the introduction of the vernacu}ar into the Mass with the first Sunday of Advent is heartening because not only young but older folks wel­ eomed the opportunity for fuller participation.

Young people would be expected to like change. But . young, and old seemed to grasp quickly that this change was not for the sake of change but for the sake of them­ 1ihat they might the more perfectly worship God in union with Christ and with the priest and with one another: With one 'another. That idea, the community idea of worship, the awareness of each Christian that he belongs ro the family of God, to a worshipping community, has not always been in the forefront of today's Catholic's thinking.

Too often the individual at Mass has made the Mass a dialogue. between himself and God to the exclusion of his neighbor. The vernacu}ar in the Mass and the opportunity ~r fuller participation now lets the individual understand that he is praying and acting as a member of a family with his older brother, Christ, with the minister of Christ, the priest, with the other sons and daughters of God, brothers and sisters of Christ, his own brothers and sisters, the other members of the congregation.

The awareness of himself as a member of the family of God is bound to carry over from the Church into daily life and should be expected to make the Catholic more aware of his apostolate to be a witness of Christ before the world, a preacher of Christ in and by his life.

The enthusiasm that greeted the use of the vernacular is enthusiasm for the whole Christian vocation.

"Dying and We Live" , The accounts coming out of The Congo, accounts of brutality 'and savagery and senseless killings, have shocked and horrified men everywhere. And a terrible aspect has been that the victims of such inhuman treatment were for the most part the most innocent and blameless individuals, missionaries and physicians and those whose s(,)le purpose for being in The Congo was to help others.

A man like Dr. Carlson, women like the good missionary nuns from Belgium, Dutch priests-these had but one reason for being in The Congo--to be of service to the natives of The Congo.

And these are the persons who were, subjected to the worst kinds of indignities and sufferings before being re­ leased to the mercy of death by slow beating or gunfire.

Perhaps the most poignant words spoken of these tragic events were those of a white planter who was rescued from Stanleyville. Said he, "We were the only ones to get out alive. We paid for our lives with money and beer but the priests and nuns had nothing to give."

Nothing but their lives.

When these same priests and nuns volunteered for the missions they proclaimed their willingness to give their lives for those whom they left their own homelands to serve.

Their pledge was redeemed in those horror-filled days and hours of their captivity and slaughter.

They gave their lives because they had nothing to give -save themselves.

As they surrendered their lives the words of the great missioner, St. Paul, could well have been theirs: "Let UEl conduct ourselves in all circumstances as God's ministers, in much patience, in tribulations, in hardships, in distresses; in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults; in labors, in sleep­ less nights, in fastings; in innocence, in knowledge, in long­ sufferings; in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in unaffected love; in the word of truth, in the power of God; with the armor of justice on the right hand and on the left; in honor and dishonor, in' evil report and good report; as deceivers and- yet truthful, as unknown and yet well known, as dying . and behold, we live, as poor yet enriching many,as having nothing yet possessing all things."

Automation caught up with Bishop Stang High School as students received new report· cards, printed with marks, cu­ mulative average, rank in class and honors, if any. Detachable stubs are signed by parents and returned to school. Advantages cited are that the new cards save paper work and give parents a better picture of students' prog­ ress.

Even automated report cards are a nervous strain in anticipa­ tion, so students relaxed after their distribution with a dance sponsored by the sOphomore student council. A mixture of live and recorded music pro­ vided entertainment.

High honors, for an average of 87 were merited by 20 Mounties and honors, for an average of 83, by 31 girls.

And at Dominican Academy highest honors went to Cather­ ine A. ImbrigliQ and Michaeline A. Leary, seniors; and to Denise T. Chouinard, ~phomore. Their averages were 95 or better.

New Bedford DI Sets Installation

By Marilyn and Joseph Roderick Aside from the universal appeal of the beauty of flow­ ers, there are many facets of gardening which attract in­ . dividuals. One such is plant propagation. Recently I stopped at the home of Mrs. Filomena Domaracki of St. Patrick's parish in Somerset, and was day, and still celebrated treated to an enlightening feast in many European countries, discussion on plant propaga­ especially those of the Northern tion. sections, and also in many Cath­ Mrs. Domaracld has a beauti­ ful garden on a difficult site. On two steep banks which front her property, she has with patience and hard work produced an eye­ catching display of perennials from April to November. She dislikes the "green thumb" label but prefers to think of her suc­ eess with flowers in terms of her love for growing things and her willingness to work to help them grow.

Mrs. Domaracki propagates many of her own plants and' de­ rives a great deal of pleasure from this aspect of gardening.

Bow To Do It On the south side of her prop­ erty she has a simple propagat­ ing bed with which she has been very successful. It is in the shape of a rectangle, approxi­ mately four feet by six feet. The soil has heeD removed to about 10 inches and replaced with about. four inches of sand. S~ has used wooden planks to shore tip the sides of the excavation and these planks extend three or four inches above soil level.

At the present time, Mrs. Domaracki, has rose and ever­ green cuttings which were taken during the Summer and which have already developed healthy root systems. She collected the evergreen cuttings in the process of shaping one of her greens.

Each is approximately five inches long and retains at least two sets of leaves. The bottom two inches of the stem should be defoliated, dipped in a rooting hormone, available in any gar­ den center, and stuck into the aand.

Mrs. Domaracki takes cuttings of rOses right after they bloom.

She cuts off a stem at least three nodes or leaves below the bloom, removes the faded bud, and dips the cutting in the hormone product just as for evergreens.

The rooting bed should be kept moist and shaded, but must be ventilated. To accomplish this" Mrs. Domaracki places wooden slats about an inch apart over the bed during the Sum­ mer. For Winter protection she places four or five inches of hay over the bed and she finds that this is sufficient to protect the plants until they are trans­ planted in the Spring. (The hay should not be packed down since this would tend to stop free circulation of air 'around the plants.)

There are any number of plants which ea!1 be propagated In like fashion if one has the patience of Mrs. Domaracki.

Serving as his own master of ceremonies, the cardilUll had the 1,200 men and women from nursing homes, homes for the elderly and private residences roaring with laughter as he told jokes arid cavorted about the lloor.

MJ: love you all," he called out over the microph9ne, "I love you more than I can say. You are an inspiration to me."

In full humorous swing on the dance floor, where he did some lively steps with several women, Cardinal Cushing told the gath­ ering: ''Take it easy * * • you'll be dead, a long time."

Swinging one elderly guest through a fast jig step Cardinal Cushing told her:" I'm sure that after this exhibition Stanley Blinstrub will sign you up."

1964 "implements" the princi­ ples of the Pope John XXIII's encyclical, "Pacem, in Terris."

This statement was made in a talk at the tenth National Con­ ference on Catholic Youth Work

by Thomas D. Hinton, executive director of the National Catholie Community Service, Washington.

Hinton said the war on pover~ ty presents a great opportunity for voluntary agencies, such as the Catholic Youth Organization, to join hands with the govern­ ment in fighting poverty.

In comparing the object:.ves of the poverty war with the declarations of Pope John, he quoted from the late pontiff's encyclical.

Asks CYO Help "It often happens that in one and the same country citizens enjoy different degrees of wealth and social advancement * * * When such is the case jus­ tice and equity demand that the government make every effort either to remove 4)r minimize the imbalance * * *" Noting the need for retraining certain segments of the popula­ tion because of unemployment brought on by automation, he stated that CYO groups, schools, educators and social workers co join in providing training oppor­ tunities.

He said CYO people could al_ be helpful by encouraging 0 ther youth to stay in school and d::op­ outs to join the proposed job corps "and skill training centers.

pathy by Pope Pius XII for the nazis are in "absolute contradic­ tion" to solid evidence.

Father Robert A. Graham, S.J., author of the volume "Vatican Diplomacy" who recently spent a year's research on the Holy See's war-time diplomacy, made his comments in America (Dec. 5), the national Catholic weekly review of which he is an associ­ ate editor.

The Jesuit noted publication in European newspapers of papers found in the nazi Foreign Ministry. These were dispatches from nazi diplomats in Rome to Berlin headqudrters saying that Pius XII was sympathetic to their cause.

Not New He said they were not new papers, having been in use dur­ ing the war crimes trials at Nuremberg in 1946. He also said they were j'self-serving dis­ patches" by German diplomats.

"If the Vatican was really pro­ nazi, it succeeded admirably in keeping solid evidence to' this' , effect out of nazi dispatches," observed Father Graham who was read the original papers in the Political Archives in Bonn, ' Germany.

Furthermore, he said, there are "convincing examples" of the Vatican's real positions. He said Pius XII had a part in a 1939 plan of the anti-nazi Ger­ man resistance to abolish Hitler.

The Pope transmitted proposals o,f the planners to the British Ambassador at the Vatican, he reported.

Catholic Doctor Aided Persecuted Jews' NEW YORK (NC)'-A Cath­ olic German woman who. helped

save countless Jews from nazi death camps in World War n said here: "When I could no longer help the persecuted I was glad. I could share their suffer~ ing."

Dr. Gertrude Luckner of Frei­ burg, Germany, in the U. S. for a month-long lecture tour, re­ ferred to the years she spent in Ravensbrueck l~oncentration camp when her se,cret network for saving Jewish victims was discovered.

Dr. Luckner started the Jew­ ish·rescue work in Germany un­ officially in 1933, successfully hiding her activities from the nazi regime. As the persecution became more intense, she was asked by the German bishops to integrate her work with Caritas.

Through the, Caritas network, she was able to get messages to persecuted all over Germany.

"Our aim. was to organize help from person to per:~on," said Dr. Luckner. "This personal help no dictatorship can crush. Tyranny

On March 24, 1943, she was arrested by the Gestapo and sent to Ravensbrueck. She was lib­ erated on May 3, 1945. Since the end of the war, Dr. Luckner has been aiding in rehabilitation and indemnification of nazi. victims, and has continued her charitable and humanitarian work for Christians and Jews.

Dr. Luckner visited Israel 10 times and was honored there as one of the "unsung heroes" who have saved Jews at the risk of her life. For 15 years, with a group of Catholics, she has been publishing the "Rundbrief of Freiburg", a journal to promote the mutual understanding, of Christians and Jews.

Pope Paul Urges Peace in C:ongo VATICAN ClTY--L'Osserva­ tore Romano has criticized the news of atrocities re)orted from Stanleyville, the Congo, as "facts which, through the viola­ tion of the common norms of humaneness, strike deeply at the ci- '1 conscience."

The front page E~itorial in the Vatican City daily"said Pope Paul VI had expressed "deep concern for the Con,golese peo­ ple" and praised and encouraged the work of Catholic Relief Ser· vices - National Catholic Wel­ fare Conference, "whose a~tivi­ ties to alleviate human miseries has become all the more neces­ sary in moments of such great preoccupation for so many inno­ cent people threatened by grave dangers."

"In the face of the sorrows of that land," the paper said, the Pope "renews his liLppeal that sentiments of peace and broth­ erly solidarity may prevail and grow stronger and that human rights may be safeguarded, par­ ticularly those of thE~ weak and defenseless.

Pointing to aid projects on the local, regional, ancil national levels, he said that all should join in working closely together . with a common sense of commit­ ment and purpose.

We now need to prepare tor the future: 1) By building humbl)o to share more of our wealth with the rest of the world. 2) lay inspiring our college youths to dedicate two years in the Missions, as do the Mormons. S) By self-criticism, asking ourselves if we axe not like rich relatives whose poor relatives envy us to a point of waiting to lay hands on our money. 4) By going out into the world since ihe world will not come' to us, reviving parish visitatiOI:tS, tightening bonds with men of good will, praying together with them..

5) By facing the sad fact that Communism is more missionary than we are, does more for the poor than we do and all for the sake of the party! Does Christ mean less to us?

Says High Court Rules Impede Smut Cases LOS ANGELES ('NC) A city prosecutor complainea here that anti-obscenity Ca6e prosecution has become in­ creasingly difficult because flIf the U. S. Supreme Court deci­ sions stressing an "ever expand­ ing" concept of freedom.

City Attorney Roger Arne­ bergh advanced the complaint when asked by the city council's police, fire and civil defense committee to give a written ex­ planation as to why he had not established an anti-pornography division. .

- The city attorney defended his office's record in anti-pornog­ raphy litigation. He said his of­ fice had always emphasized such prosecutions.

As a prosecutor Arnebergh said he was concerned about the increasing volume of pornog­ raphy, but was also bound to follow the law.

Court Standards "It is not the standards of the prosecutor, but the standards es­ tablished by the courts that must be applied."

He said the position of the U. S. Supreme Court is of over­ riding importance. While there is bewildering difference of ·opin­ ion among the justices as to what constitutes obscenity, the significant fact, he declared, is the "liberal interpretation of freedom of speech."

"What was 'obscene' yesterday is no longer obscene today; what was the law yesterday is no longer the law," he said, eJI­ plaining why it is difficult .. obtain convictions.

Jesuit Suggests, Possibility

Of Forming Chur.ch Senate

By Rt. Rev. Msgr~ John S. Kennedy It is only at, the yery end of his book Vatican II: Last of the Councils (Helicon. $4.95) that Father Rock Caporale, S.J., gets around to indicating why the work is so titled.

He suggests that hereafter the Church will set up some permanent means ~f meeting lating of experience and opinion and adapting to changing· from all quarters of the globe. conditions in the world, and There was a discovery, too, that this may well take the that ideas and aspirations had form of a senate of the Church.

'I' h us, a lcind of perennial council, repre­ sentative and - flexible, would come into ex­ istence. And the need for it seems to be .'- demonstrated by . what has hap­ . pened at,- and been said about, Vatican Coun­ cil II. It is real­ ' l y this latter , subject which Father Caporale is concerned about throughout his book. . During the sec~rid session of the present councq. he inter­ viewed 90 persons somehow connected with it.' Of these, 73 were cardinals or bishops, and 17 were observers or theologians.

The yield of his inquiries he now makes available, and it is inter­ esting to the general reader and invaluable to the student of the Church.

Fifty-five of his respondents said th~t, prior, to Pope John's announcement, the idea of, a council had never occurred to. them. Thirteen bishops had given some thought to the pos- : sibility. Four of these had looked' on a council as a means of com­ batting contemporary errors, While none saw it as a way of bringing the Church up to da,te.

Pope John's Judgment Six bishops admitted that in their view there had been no problem and no need of a coun-' eil. Most of the bishops ques­ tioned felt that change was re­ quired.

As might have been expected, there were differing estimates of Pope John, whose idea, under the Holy Spirit, the council was.

Sixty-four bishops had nothing but praise for the pontiff. Seven expressed views in some mea­ sure critical, and two evidenced an attitude which might be ealled indifferent.

Those who admired Pope John were eloquent in their tributes to him. It is significant that a number of these attributed to him an 1.musually keen sense of history and the historical move­ ment. While cognizant of his charismatic quality, his pastoral genius, his magnanity and cour­ age, they also mentioned his shrewd practical judgment.

Pius Paved Way Several pointed out that, in their judgment, Pope Pius XII had paved the way for the coUIi­ cil. As one put it, '''He prepared the world for the counci~ with his analysis and with 'his new image of the role of the Church in every field 'of human endeav­ 'or; as also with the changes he introduced, however small" such as those about the eucharistic fast and evening Masses."

Did the bishops think that the council had proved worthwhile, and if so, in what way? There was near unanimity in returnin"i a "Yes" to the first part of the question. Only five bishops ex­ pressed negative opinions.

Among those answering af­ firmatively, a typical reason was that the council had made them see the Church in a new light.

The Church became aware of itself as never before, at least in our times. There was a bring­ ing together. an exchange, a col-

been widely entertained which the several participants thought to be peculiar to themselves and perhaps a few others. To find that these were generally shared, arid merely waiting on such an assembly to come· forth as rep­ reseritative of the bishops as a Whole, was astonishing.

It was agreed. tha.t the coun­ cil had provided an education for the bishops. In effect, they went back to .school, and had their grasp on theology renewed, deepened and expanded. They perceived the relevance of the­ ology to the problems of the day.,.

This note of optimism was often sounded. "The council has changed me from a pessimistic to an optimistic frame of mind," a respondent stated. As for the future of the council and the practical effectiveness of its work, there were sturdy hopes.

Granted that some strongly doubted that the pace could be kept up, still "a large number of bishops expressed confidence that the present trend would not lose ground and that no involu­ tion or significant set-back would happen."

Personal Contaets Much is made throughout the study of .the personal contacts among the bishops as one of the chief features and benefits of the council. These occurred on both an individual and a group basis. The individual bishop could, and often did, get in touch with, and learn from, his fellows from all over the world.

One gets the impression that if, in the first session, the role of the American bishop was a disappointment to many, the former began to count for much more in the second session.

But the findings seem to be that the other hierarchies, such as those of Argentina and Brazil, did more about effective infor­ mal groups for discussion, while still others made greater use of the timesaving device of having group spokesmen on the councn floor.

Forward Movement There is a section on the work of the theological experts (pe­ riti). Forty-three bishops were gratified by the dialogue which has opened between. themselves and the experts.

"We bishops are not always good theologians," one of them remarked. "The role of the theo­ logians in the future is going to be very important." However, another cautioned, "Let us not forget that the bishop is respOn­ sible for the government of the diocese."

The Protestant' observers among the respondents were both surprised and pleased by what has taken place at the council, and looked for real, if deliberate, steps toward Chris­ tian reunion.

Is it a progressive note that the Brazilian bishops had their own comic paper concerning the council? This tidbit is one of many scattered through these pages. They brighten a study which occasionally tends to 'the stodgy. But despite the heavy style, there is excitement here, in the heaped UiJ evidence of a vigorous forward movement in the Church, resulting from an overdue self-scrutiny and a de­ termination to reform and renew the people of God

Father Gorman Requiem Tomorrow

Continued from Page One 10th, 1929 by the Rt. Rev. Thomas J. Shahan, at the Na­ tional Shrine of the Immaculate Conception.

His first pastoral assignment was to Our Lady of the Isle in Nantucket and in October of 1929 was appointed as curate at Holy Rosary, Fall River. In April, 1930 he went to St. Pat­ rick's, Fall River, serving as curate under the late Bishop James E. Cassidy, who was then Pastor of St. Patrick's. He re­ turned to Catholic University in September of 1931 for further studies.

In June of 1932 Bishop Cas­ sidy appointed him Superintend­ ent of Schools, where he served until his retirement in 1962. He had an S.T.B. Degree and a Master of Arts in Education.

When he was appointed as Su­ perintendent he was transferred to the Cathedral and was ap­ pointed Chaplain of the Rose Hawthorne Lathrop Home. He remained at the Cathedral until 1938 when he became Chaplain of the Catholic Memorial Home until his appointment as Admin­ istrator of St. Patrick's, Somerset in July of 1951.

While Superintendent of Dioc­ esan Schools he was very inter­ ested in CCD program and pub­ lished a manual for Catechists called "Teach". The establish­ ment of the N. E. Catholic Su­ perintendents Organization was due to Father Gorman and he was their Executive Secretary and became Dean of this Organ­ ization. Under his Direction the first Catholic Teachers Conven­ tion was started and the first Convention was held at St. Anne's in Fall River. He estab­ lished the War Savings Program in the Diocesan Schools during the war.

In his 30 years as superin­ tendent of Diocesan Schools, Father Gorman introduced many firsts in the educational system of the Diocese.

During 1933, the first Diocesan and Educational Exhibit was held with 800 drawings and 200 projects on display.

New Diocesan examinations were extended to all grades, a new school calendar and direc­ tory were publilshed, during Father Gorman's superintend­ ency.

Leader for many years of the Legion of Decency campaign, the school director led the drive throughout the school system for decenc;r in the movies.

In 1936, the Association of the Holy Childhood was accepted as the mission program for the ele­ mentary schools, while the Cath­ olic Students Mission Crusade was adopted for the High School students.

New standards for teachers and a revision of 'courses in the educational system highlighted 1940.

Asserts Car Pool Example Of Neighborly Cooperation

DAY

AFTER

bAY

By John J. Kane, Ph.D. "School days are here again and so are the freeloaders, those who want their children in school, scouts, sports, etc. but never make any effort to pick up or deliver children.

They do not care to~ "pool" rides or to pay. When I pick these youngsters up and note piles up in favor of an hour at a car in their drive and a the wheel. husband at home, I become In other words, the most log­ angry. Don't tell me to talk ical arrangement possible for

.

to them, I just cannot argue, neither can I pass their children by when they stand on the eorner."

The use of the family car is a rich source of intra-family disagree­ ment, but it can also arouse ten­ sion and bitter­ ness among neighbors about who drives whom, when and where.

Obviously, you have taken on the role of a neighborhood chauffeur or bus driver. If you won't speak up, and you say you won't, things are going to get worse. It may seem cruel to pass by waiting children, but you'll have to do this unless you do discuss the problem.

Orie of the changes in our so­ ciety is that children of today have to be driven almost every­ where. If the distance is really great, the children quite young or the weather miserable, driv­ ing children, five or 10 blocks is quite understandable. But when the distance is little, 10 blocks or less, the weather clear and the children old enough to take care of themselves, it seems ridiculous.

Encourage Walking S 0 m eon e has ironically pointed out that we spend money for school busses to transpo~ children, then 10 times as much money to build gyms so that they can obtain exercise. Per­ haps this oversimplifies a bit, but one way to cut down on car "pools", excessive chauffeuring and the "freeloaders" is to en­ courage children to walk to school, sports events and such when it is reasonably possible.

Of course, it is not always pos­ sible. There can be many sound reasons for driving even short distances because of inclement weather, little time for lunch or the danger of having youngsters on the streets at night. But this is exactly where the whole busi­ nes~' of being a good neighbor comes in.

Most car owners may not real­ ize it but it does cost a consid­ erable amount to own and oper­ ate even one car. Many people have two. That forgotten loaf of bread or bottle of milk which means another half mile trip to the store is costing quite a bit.

Involves Time, Money The same is true of the mother who drives her children to school and home each day. Auto­ mobiles in certain respects are uneconomical because while they will usually hold five or six persons they are frequently oc­ cupied by one, sometimes two persons. If three mot):1ers drive­ three cars to transport one or two -children each, it is costing three times as much, roughly, than if one mother drove all the youngsters in one car.

But the expense is not even 'lhe most irritating part of being a chauffeur. The time in..volved is no small part of it, plus the necessity for each woman to be "presentable" when she drives.

If the round trip is made in 15 minutes, an hour a day may be lost if the children are driven home for lunch. The hOllSework

transporting children to school and other events, aside from a bus, is some type of car "pool".

None of these work perfectly.

Schedules are often disrupted by breakdown of a car, the nec­ essity for the husband to have it that day, or just about any com­ bination of circumstances from birth to death.

Brings Families Together But perfect or not, car "pools" are a must in certain localities, and if you can't bring yourself to say as much to your slothful neighbors, then perhaps you will have to be condemned to eternal chauffeuring. If this is the case, then like any other chauffeur, I think you should be paid for it.

You can simply inform your neighbors that you are willing to transport their children but you feel it only fair that they should help you pay for gas, you want to be a bit brash.­ wear and tear on the car, and for your labor. I think the idea will get across very quickly.

But there are other reasons for proposing a car "pool" than the economic. It can be a fine example of neighborly cooper­ ation which may bring you and other families more closely to­ gether. It also affords co~mu­ nication with the neighbors and gives the children a little more in common.

Everyone 'Shares Job This is not to pretend that even a good car "pool" will make the children get along like little angels or that neighbors will not experience occasional tension. But it can be the basis of a type of cooperation that could grow into wider activities.

At any rate, one of the best things to be said about a car "pool" is that everyone shares the job of chauffeur. Instead of getting hypertension or ulcers when one drives all the young­ sters in the neighborhood, pass­ ing their parents parked cars to do so, you take turns.

Unfortunately, there are the types of "freeloaders" you de­ scribe in your letter. The father who cannot or will not drive his children anywhere on a Satur­ day afternoon because of the football TV broadcasts. The mother who prefers to return to bed, or not even get up in the morning early enough to drive children to class.

Harm to Children One does hate to be unchar­ itable and especially to the youngsters who are not to blame and look wistfully at you as you pass in the car. But perhaps it is less uncharitabk to compel such parents to realize and live up to their responsibilities. In fact, one might well question whether taking over this part of a job which some parents refuse to share I.lay not do great harm to their children. It certainly is an example of how you can evade your responsibilities, and most children (adults too for that matter) seem to require little training in this dubious art.

But now that you have written to me about the problem per­ haps you can become· a little more articulate about it. If not, clip this article and see that it reaches some of your friends. In fact, you might stop and put it under the windshield wiper of their car as you pick up th,eil' children for delivery to IIChool.

Pope Paul Gives Gift of lWheat To Indici BOMBAY {NC) - Pope PaUll VI's gift of wheat to the people of India arrived here with the opening of the 38th International Eucharistic Congress.

Port authorit::es immediately cut through a nine-day berthing delay that has tied up every cargo vessel in Bombay's over­ taxed harbor.

They brought the American freighter, the S.S. Steel Voyager, into the Alexander docks for im­ mediate unloading of the 1,600­ long tons of gra:ln.

As two big cranes lifted the 31,250 bags of wheat out of the freighter's hold, India was in the grip of a serious food crisis.

Rice Rations In Bombay itself,. thousands waited hours in seemingly end­ less lines outside food shops for rations of rice. Reports came from Madras that men were dropping from exhaustion and hunger while waiting in lines for their meagre ration.

The wheat which Pope Paul donated was bought from the U. S. government:. The shipping was paid for by Catholic Relief Services National Catholic Welfare Conference.

The wheat is being distrib­ uted by a Hindu charitable agency, Bharat Sewar Samai, and Catholic Charities of India.

Each organization will distribute half of the total.

For a time, it was thought that the wheat would be distrib­ uted by the India.n government.

But the terms of the sale by the U. S. government specified that it be distributed through non­ governmental channels.

Overlllow The Steel Voyager took on the wheat in New Orleans Oct. 22 and 23. It then steamed to New York and headed east for Bombay via the Suez Canal and Karachi.

While it was berthed in the Bombay harbor, three other bulk grain carriel's loaed with American wheat lay nearby waiting to discharge their cargo.

Farther out, were three ships, Cilicia, Anna, and the Akropolis, which were serving as floating hotels for part of the overflow of pilgrims who s'lreamed into Bombay for the Con~l'esa.

Urge New Zealand Presbyterians Seek Closer Tie With Catholics AUCKLAND (NC)-The Gen­ eral Assembly of the Presbyte­ rian Church here approved a statement encouraging Presby­ terians 'to seek out associations with Catholics as steps to Chris­ tian unity.

Unity, the statement explained, was sought not in the sense of the merging of all the churches, but as a lead to separated fellow Christians to know honestly where each stood and to culti­ vate mutual relationships in the Christian spirit. ''For ministers and laymen alike an encounter between the churches means a deep and searching theological concern in a time when there is much ig­ norance within the Church," said the report.

An encounter between sep­ arated churches means honest and courageous acceptance of

Plan Interfaith Pavilion at Fair NIAGARA FALLS (NC)-A Catholic priest has told the Canadian Council of Churches here of tentative plans for a Christian pavilion in which all churches could participate at the 1967 World Fair in MontreaL Father John Martucci of Mon­ treal, secretary of an interde­ nominational Christian pavilion planning committee, said the project has been under 'discus­ sion for two years.

He told the council, which rep­ resents about 85 per cent of the Protestants in Canada, that sev­ eral major denominations had , indicated they would participate.

The plan now under consider­ ation would not be a chapel where all groups would hold services, nor would it be a large building where each denomina­ tion would have its own space, he said.

with the dates of the (Catholic) Chair of Unity Octave, Jan. 18 to 25.

Developing the observance theme, Cardinal Ritter said that the times of the Apostle John who wrote, "Behold, I make all things new," are much like today. The Cardinal cited "the exuberant spirit of Christian optimism," and "unmistakable workings of the Paraclete in the growth of the ecumenical spirit in these days."

He called for prayer from all Christians "that the wounds of Christendom might be healed."

Genuine prayer, the Cardinal said, "must begin with an aware­ ness of personal guilt for the sin of Chistian disunity; proceed in a spirit of repentance and mu­ tual forgiveness; and conclude with a determination to pursue and extend dialogue."

Cardinal Ritter praised the unity prayer leaflets prepared by the World Council of Churches for "so meaningful a choice of Scripture selections."

He said he was convinced that the basis of dialogue is to be found in the words of Scripture.

Introduces Solemn ­ Mass in English PHILADELPHIA (NC)-An English version of a popular three-part setting of the Mass was introduced here by Arch­ bishop John J. Krol of Philadel­ phia when' he offered a solemn pontifical Mass in the Cathedral of 55. Peter and Paul.

The Mass was used by special permission of the U. S. Bishops Liturgical Commission. It was tape recorded and will be sub­ mitted to the commission for evaluation. Choir portions of sung and solemn Masses are not included in the general permis­ sion to use English.

The Mass was an adaptation

by Father William J. Sailer of St. Charles Seminary, Over­ brook, of the late Msgr. Lorenzo Perosi's famed "Mass for Three Male Voices."

for the Church.

In an interview after his re­ turn from the Vatican Council, the Bishop said his common ex­ perience has been to have lay­ men ask him, "What do you want us to do?" And he added: "So many look at the Church to find fault and to criticize. I would like something construc­ tive. Why keep telling us what ought to be done? Rather such critics should say what they would do if asked. It becomes depressing, even frustrating. We know the problems. What we want are the solutions."

First for the layman, said Bishop Rehring, it is essential that he be devoted to his role in the world and in the family, and as a Catholic to be different from others.

Law Enforcement in South Federal Government Duty

-::UPER-RIGHT QUALITY, FANCY, BONI!LESS

Rev. Andrew M. Greeley An excellent theoretical case can be made according to Catholic social teaching for leaving the problems of civil rights and integration in the hands of the states. It is not a good thing to have the federal government interfering in matters that are essentially local. The principle of sub­ c~mpar~son. between t~e. occa­ .., d·· slonal rIOts In northern cities and ~IdiarIty woul md~cate that the frequent individual crimes It .would not be deSIrable for on the one hand and chronic and the federal government to try to .enforce law and order at the local level un­ less it was ab­ solutely neces­ sary. But it is

absolutely nec­ essary.. It does

not seem to

have dawned on

large numbers

of Americans

how p 0 0 r I y

protected are

the most basic

of human rights

in certain parts of the South.

To put things in the simplest fashion: In these areas any white man can murder any Negro at will and be quite confident that he will go unpunished. A civil rights leader, all- educator re­ turning from military service, young people trying to organize voter registration - indeed any Negro-can never be sure that a white man will not at any moment torture or kill him. . Uncivilized Areas The areas of the South where such conditions exist are not merely lawless; they are uncivil­ ized, savage, barbarous. The political leaders who tolerate and in some instances actively encourage chronic disregard for elemental human rights are as guilty of the murders as the people who commit them.

The vast majority of whites who abhor' the violence but make no attempt to curtail it, or refuse to elect leaders who will protect the rights of all men, are accomplices to the crimes.

The rights of the Negroes in the South must be protected if only to protect the white South from slipping further into the degradation that brutality and barbarism bring to any tyrant people.

That the pace of degradation is accelerating in certain areas is clear from the rapid increase in membership in the Ku Klux Klan in recent months. Savagery dies hard and its death cannot . be left in the hands of people who are sympathetic to its goals if hesitant about its methods.

Fundamental Rights We are told that there is vio­ lence and crime in the North; and so there is; but there is no

Urges Larger State College Scholarship PHILADELPHIA (NC) - The head of La Salle College said here rising costs are limiting a student's choice of a college and a "greatly expanded state schol­ arship program" is needed.

Brother Daniel Bernian, F.S.C.. said a big scholarship program would "offer a real prospect of strengthening the total educa­ tional enterprise of the common­ wealth and open up further op­ portunities of developing its re­ markable dual system of private and public education."

Speaking at the Christian Brothers college's Fall honors convocation, Brother Bernian pointed to a state-supported col­ lege scholarship program in neighboring New Jersey and said, "we can no longer lag be­ hind our neighbors in this kind of aid to higher education."

systematic reduction of Negroes to a subhuman level in certain southern states.

We hear much in these days about maintaining order and safety in the city streets in the North - and this from 'people whose ordinary stance would be to oppose federal intervention of any sort.

There seems to be rat~er little concern about protectmg the fundamental rights of Negroes in the South, however. This can be left in the hands of the local government.

Smashing windows in the North is horrible and the federal government must stop it - at least in Washirigton, D. C. But murder in the South-while de­ plorable--is after all 'the prob­ lem of the local authorities.

Time Running Out Most of the South is very dif­ ferent from what we have been describing. Indeed, the really hard core of lawlessness has been reduced to only two or three states. But lawlessness breeds lawlessness and murder breeds murder.

The time in which a relatively peaceful solution can be found is running out. The present non­ violent leadership of the civil rights movements in the South may be swept away by more militant younger people. It rarely helps to fight fire with fire but this truth is not always clear to people who are fed up with oppression. .

Open revolt or more likely gue~illa warfare in parts of the South may be just around the corner. The federal government may not have much time left to try to prevent it. .

Catholic High Team Indiana Champion SOUTH BEND (NC)-8t. Jo­ seph's High School here has been designated the 1964 Indiana High School Football champion, according to the final tabulations of the United Press International Coaches' Poll and the Associated Press Sportswriters' Poll.

The first Catholic high school to win an Indiana football cham­ pionship is a Fort Wayne-South Bend diocesan institution staffed by tl:e Holy Cross Brothers and Sisters. The Indians posted a record of 9 wins, no losses and 1 tie for the season.

Coach Walter Moore's clubs have' scored 42 wins, 12 losses, 5 ties in the last six years at the 1,~0 student co-institutional school.

Germans to Conduct Advent Collection BONN (NC)-The bishops of Germany have called upon all Catholics to contribute to the annual Adveniat collection, con­ ducted in Germany during every Advent since 1961 to aid the Church in Latin America.

The bishops made the appeal in a joint pastoral letter in which they said the money would be used to help missions, train sem­ inarians, support Catholic radio stations and publications, and to establish a journalism insti­ tute in Latin America.

Pope Pal/II Visits

Rome Mo.nument ROME (NC)-Less than four hours after proclaiming Mary "Mother of the Church," Pope Paul VI visited the monument in Rome which (~ommemorates the declaration of Mary as Mother of God. Seated in the basilica of St. Mary Major, the Pope heard an address on Mary's newly sanc­ tioned title by Carlo Cardinal Confalonieri, archpriest of the basilica and secretary of the Consistorial Congregation.

"With the sweet title Mother of the Church," said the cardinal, "the wreath of the Virgin is adorned with a new gem."

The Pope originally had been scheduled to speak at the cere­ mony in St. Mary Major, and it had been given out by respon­ sible Vatican sources that he would declare Mary, Mother of the Church, at that afternoon ceremony.

Instead he solemnly bestowed this title upon her at the end of his speech that morning, winding up the third session of the second Vatican Council.

St. Mary Major commemo­ rates the fifth-centrJrY Council Ephesus which defined that in Christ there was but a single person with two natures, divine and human, and that as mother of this single person, Mary was mother of God.

Vatican Contlributes To UN Programs UNITED NATIONS (NC) ­ The Vatican has made its eighth annual donation to two UN pro­ grams for economic and social development. Token contribu­ tions of $1,000 each were made to the UN Technical Assistance Program and the UN Special Fund by Msgr. Alberto Giovan­ etti, the Holy See's permanent UN observer.

Though the gift is a "symbol­ ic" one, Msgr. Giovanetti told a pledging conference, it is matched on the practical plane by the work of thousands of priests, Sisters and laymen in the underdeveloped l.ands who are doing a technical assistance task without calling it such.

"There is also behind this con­ tribution," the Holy See's repre­ sentative continued, "'~he t1'!ach­ ing of the Church, which has ever reminded the States of the duty of international solidarity and encouraged Catholics to par­ ticipate in ·the various technical assistance programs."

All-Around Player The North Dartmouth helms­ man did another masterful job this season in building the well­ balanced combine that easily captured the State divisional and county league championships.

SCouts from opposing schools quickly learned that the classy ball-carrying star in one game turned up as the crafty, good blocker for another pigskin car­ rier in the next contest. Lynch was not going to permit an op­ posing club to bottle-up an of­ fense built around one player.

Patiently, he developed the all-around player, the one who can block as well as ·tackle, .the one who can run. interference as well as tote the pigskin. He switched, from week to week, employing his proteges in vari­ ous roles. And, by so doing, he was able to keep the Spartans on the march notwithstanding the fact that every club in the area was out to stop Stang.

Wins 34 of 38 Lynch's ability to develop teams is no better illustrated than by the record in his second year in the mentor's role at Stang. He had de'll'eloped a 'ayvee team, starting with fresh­ men and sophomores, when there were only two classes at the new diocesan school. Then, in the third year of the school, he had boys from all three classes on his club.

Even though he had only three classes at the school, he led his stang charges in a varsity sched­ ule, winning Ilix, losing one and tying one. n was this unit which formed fhe strength 01. the first Stang tour-class club which copped the Bristol County title in 1962, with eight wlna and one tie.

"He 'has brought that team along for three years. Graduation will 'kill' him and then he'll drop back." This was the com­ mon talk in many quarters.

Carlin is the son of Mr. and Mrs. James Lynch, now of Taun­ tori.. He was a student in the Somerset public schools before he entered Coyle in 1948. After graduation from the Taunton diocesan school in 1952, he en­ tered the Jesuit college in Worcester from which he was graduated with an A.B. degree in 1956.

While at Coyle, Lynch was All-Bristol for two years in football as an end and he was all-Bristol for three years as a catcher in baseball.

The astute Stang coach earned three football .letters as an end under Coach Eddie Anderson at the Cross. Anderson completed 39 years as a coach last Saturday.

He has resigned his position.

Lynch was eighth in the coun-. ~ try as a pass receiver in his Senior year which made him fourth-ranking in the East. He was voteod on the all-opponent team by Syracuse, Dayton and Marquette. Lynch was . also chosen on numerous All New England teams in his final year at the Worcester institution.

He married Frances Sqyasta of Worcester in August 1956; just prior to his acceptance of a coaching berth at Central Cath­ olic High School in Pueblo, Col­ orado. They are the parents of five children. At Pueblo, he was a line coach under Jack Parsons.

Lynch was also head baseban coach at the Arizona Catholic school.

Returns to Somerset The Parsons-Lynch combine won the Colorado state football championship in 1957. The Stang coach then returned to his na­ tive Somerset where he took over the head high school foot­ ball coaching reins.

In his first year at Somerset, Lynch piloted the Blue Raiders to an undefeated and untied season which brought them the State Class D championship.

The following year, Lynch'.

Pope at Eucharistic Congress . Continued from Page One Holy Communion" by being host of the Congress. And to second the Vice-President and the Archbishop, nearly 5000 persons received Holy Communion at the opening Mass.

On Sunday, Cardinal AgagianIan celebrated an outdoor Mass at which representatives of 40 nations brought offerings of bread and wine to the altar. In .his address, the Cardinal-Legate explained that the Congress had been called to show the beauty of the Catholic liturgy, to reveal something of the inner life of the Catholic people, to show the universality of the Catholic religion. "But before all things," he continued, "this is an occasion for the manifestation of eur faith, of our belief in the mysteries of our religion revealed to us by God, of our immediate and unquestioning acceptance of the stupendous words of Our Lord: 'This is My.Body; 'rhis is My Blood.'''

Papal Pilgrimage Because of the recent tragic trash at Fumicino Airport at Rome, the Papal trip had to undergo some changes. The length of the flight strip had been shortened and all airliners must leave with lighter loads~e half their gasoline supplies.

The Pope thus took advantage ef these restrictions which demanded a refueling on the way to India and scheduled a brief stopover at Beirut in Lebanon, the only Arab country where Christianity is a major religion.

The Pope arrived to the ringIng of all the bells of the city's ehurches and an official reception followed at the airport.

During an impressive demonstration of filial homage to the Pope, the President of the Le~anese Republic togethel" with

other Church and civic officials rendered homage to the Sovereign Pontiff.

Pope's Prayer Expressing his wish to be with the people, the Pope will visit many charitable institutions during his stay in India and is expected to make some 20 speeches-all in English. At Sunday's Angelus, the Pope told pilgrims in St. Peter's Square: "We pray first that the great event may be truly inspired by a spirit of faith and may recognize, celebrate and proclaim the Eucharist as 'the mystery of faith', the synthesis of our belief in God and our worship of Christ and God. Second, we pray to Our Lady that our journey and that of the bishops -.and faithful may be expressed and understood by the Indian people â&#x20AC;˘ â&#x20AC;˘ . as a message of brotherhood and peace, honor and esteem; and by all peoples as a gesture of universal catholic brotherhood."
