This figure was released by officials of the shrine who point out that these 54 supernatural cures are only a small part of the more than 3,000 cures which have taken place at Lourdes.

The 3,000 cures are recognized as at least beyond explanation by strictly scientific and medical knowledge. But the Church alone is qualified to declare them as works of God, and she has done so in only 54 cases so far, shrine officials noted.

Twenty cardinals and several hundred bishops have already announced their intention of at­ tending the centenary celebra­ tions to be held here next year, it was reported. .

His Eminence Pierre Cardinal Gerlier, Archbishop of Lyons, will preside· at the opening of the celebration on Feb. 11, 1958, and His Eminence Maurice Car­ dinal Feltin will close the cel­ ebrations on Feb. 11, 1959; His Eminence Angelo Cardinal RoncaIli, Patriarch of Venice, will dedicate the vast' subterra­ nean Church of St. Pius X on March 25, '1958. Cardinal Ron­ calli is a former Apostolic Nun­ cio .0 France.

Archbishop. Cicognani spoke briefly at the conclusion of the film thanking and congratulat­ ing the NCCM and NBC "in the name of the distinguished guests here present and in my own."

"What was proposed as a monu­ mental project is 110W a glor­ ious achievement," he said, "worthy of the inspired tradi­ tions of the National Council of Catholic Men and of the artistic and constructive style of the

National -Broadcasting Com- .

pany."

"We are· deeply grateful for this premiere of 'Rome Eternal.'

You have been most kind and generous in our regard. From' now on, millions of people will not only enjoy this production but will also," we hope, have a better understanding and appre­ ciation of what 'Rome. Eternal' means."

Archbishop Cicognani pointed out briefly the unique history of Rome, mysterious in her or­ igin victorious over all the world of ;ncient times, mentioned sev­ eral times in the Sacred Scrip­ tures able to give a universal lang~age, Latin, and the prin­ ciples of universal law to the world. He. then called at~ention to the supreme inheritance she received. Peter, .the Vicar of Christ, went there and fixed there the center of his exalted task.

Only God IS Eternal Only God is really eternal, the Apostolic Delegate said, and the Supreme Pontiff is the guardian of the inheritance of the Son of God - 'His doctrine, His sac­ raments; His Church. Here, he explained, we find the argu­ ments and proofs of eternity.

The Holy Father, the Com­ mon Father of all, who is suc­ cessor of St. Peter, the "Rock" of Christ's Church, the Apostolic Delegate continued, carries on and will ever carryon, in ac­ cordance with the promise of Our Divine Lord, the teaching of His eternal doctrine and the guidance of souls to eternal sal­ vation. He stressed that our pres­ ent Holy Father, Pope Pius XII, has given incessant testimony to this universal fatherhood by his most numerous audiences granted to people of all faiths, who go to Rome with this one purpose in 'mind, "to see Peter," to listen to him. In commenting on the unique flavor of the films, he expressed the hope that their message would be thoroughly and widely realized through their forthcoming national tele­ cast.

Jesuit Urges Catholics Develop Understanding of, Other People CHAMPAIGN (NC) The habit of ,"viewing with alarm" has caused, American Catholics to neglect their. relations, with their fellow Americans, accord­ ing to a leading Jesuit educator.

Jesuit Father· Wa'lter J. Ong of St. Louis University 1:(1)­ tended that the mission of Amer­ ican Catholics' does not lie in pointing out dangers. He addressing '8 meeting of the Newman 'Foundation of the Uni­ versity of Illinois.

The communication of knowl­ edge and attitudes is the key function of tha'; mission, Father Ong declared. Even though Cath­ olics have goo,d' reason to abject strenuously to some things in American culture, "viewing with alarm" must be merely a side­ line. ''The advance in commu!lica-­ tions through the years has been an \lnmistakable good in bring­ ing men closer together," he said.

"American Catholics owe it to their Church and their country to develop understanding of other people.. Up to now, we have not been too good at it. We are too prone to make our com­ munication with others a One­ way affail,"."

Everyone is public relations minded, because mankind is more in touch with' itself than ever before.

"Before the American Cath­ olic ~an realize his place in the world; he must understand weIJ this American expression of the gro~th of communications."

Father Ong' warned agaist eJitreme nationalism in commu­ nications, "which makes so many of our dealings with other na­ tions one-sided."

"This is our great weakness," he declared, "our inability to adapt ourselves to other Peo­ ~le. We specialize in converting tb~m to our way of thinking.

This attitude will seriously in­ terfere with the mission of the United States and the Ameri­ can Church 'in the coming ·de­ cades."

Hartford Diocese Announces' Plans For New St. Joseph Cathedral HARTFORD (NC) - A new St. ,Joseph Cathedral will rise here on the Farmington Avenue site of the old one, which was destruyed by fire in December, 1956.

Archbishop Henry J .. O'Brien ' of Hurtford announced that pre­ liminary,plans submitted by Eg­ gers 'and Hi{;gins, architects, of· Ne-w York City, show the new· cathedral will be of contempor­ ary cce!lign "with a flavor ot the tra,(litional form of architecture."

There will be no inflammable materials .in the new cathedral except the pews and stalls. The interior will be entirely of such permanent materials as masonry, mOHiaC, glnss. concrete and mar­ ble.

'I'he :{l'ating layout will pro­ vide fiVe aisles with un interrupt­ . eli visibility from every seat in , the nave. There will be room for 1.800 persons in the main church and an additional 1,600 in the :ower church.

The facade of the new cathe­ . dral will be 130 feet high. A cross-topped tower will rise 27~

Priests on Jet Inaugural Flight AMSTERDAM (NC) - Four American priests took part in the inaugural flight of a new jet-powered plane readied to help transport pilgrims through ~urope during the 1958 Lourdes centennial year.

The airliner inaugurated here is a turbo-prop plane. Instead of employing conventional gaso­ line engines, it uses jet propul­ sion to run turbines which turn the propellors. This is said to make for swifter, less noisy transportation. The plane left here for Rome, where it was scheduled to be christened.

The clergymen on the trip are Fathers John E. Kelly, director of the Bureau of Information of the National Catholic Welfare Conference, Washington; John Dietzen, assistant editor of the Peoria (Ill.) Register; Joseph A. Cir'rincione, pastor of St. Fran­ cis of Assisi parish, Rochester, N. Y., and Charles Borgognoni, assistant pastor of Our Lady of Pompei parish, Syracuse, N. Y.

Double Celebration for Nuns

A double anniversary celebra­ tion took place on December 26 at Sacred Heart Convent, North Attleboro, Mass.

Sister Rose Louise, S.U.S.C., entered the Congregation of the

Sisters of the Holy Union 50

years. ago in Fall River, Mass.

Sister was stationed at St. Mary's Taunton, for five years; at St. Jacques, Taunton, for 20 years; at Assumption Convent, Chelsea, Mass., for 20 years. Her last as­ signment before retiring here at Sacred Heart Convent, was at St. Anthony's Convent, Shirley, Mass.

On Sister Rose Louise's 25th anniversary, her niece, Mother Marie Gemma, answered the call to Religious Life. Mother, now Superior at this convent, is not

a stranger among the parishion­ ers since she devoted her first twelve years of apostolate here in North Attleboro, as a teacher.

She then became one of the pio­ neers at Immaculate Conception Convent in Astoria, N. Y., where she was organist, classroom, and music teacher for two years.

Mother Marie Gemma performed the same duties at St. Jean Bap­ tiste Academy, Pawtucket, R. 1., until her superiorate here in August 1955.

The program opened with cel­ ebration of Holy Mass by Rev­ erend Joseph S. LaRue, pastor,

followed by a full day of en­ joyment. Gifts were received by relatives and friends. The day closftd with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament given by Reverend Edmond L. Dickinson. director of Sacred Heart SchooL

Bahamian island and the life of a hermit is told in The Hermit of Cat Island by Peter F. Anson, published by P. J. Kenedy & Sons.

Reared in a traditional Vic­ torian atmosphere, John C. Hawes grew up with a freedom of spirit and the artist's original­ .ity which was early reflected in his decision to abandon a prom­ ising architectural career for the ministry. Uncertainty about his suitability for the Anglican per­ suasion led him to Catholicism and, after several adventurous

Assigned as a missionary in

the sprawling Australian bush country, Hawes labored for 24 years, there gained a reputation

as a church designer, dog­

He would abandon his now comforable life in Australia to hazard one of poverty and solitude as a hermi~ on a remote island' in the Bahamas, where 80 years earlier, as an Anglican cleric, he had, achieved fame as designer of Anglican c~urches.

He died in Miami Beach in July., 1956: While pursuing this dual role as hermit and missionary archi­ . teet, Fra Jerome found time to keep a diary, accounts of his perilous sea journeys from island to island, and a steady corre­ spondence with friends in which he made frequent trenchant ob­ servations on such controversial topics as animal immortality and the state of contemporary litur­ gical art.

Honor Sudents Named

Spotlighting Our Schools ST. MARY'S HIGH" TAUNTON In addition to the senior Christmas play, presented under the direction of Miss Mary Ben­ son, each class held an indi­ vidual pre-Christmas program.

The selections included group singing of Christmas carols, in­ dividual talent contributions, and re:freshments. Beginning Decem­ ber 17, the girls recited Advent antiphons appropriate for the week preceding Christmas.

The high school honor roll for the second term was posted. The seniors had the largest repre­ sentntion with twenty-three members on the list, while the juniors led high honors with ten.

HOLY FAMILY HIGH SCHOOL, NEW BEDFORD .

In the first basketball tilt of the season, Holy Family hoop;' Bters were the victors. Both first and second teams rolled up size­ able scores over their rival, Pre­ vost High' of Fall River. This was also Holy Family's "first ap­ pearance in the new Kennedy Memorial Gym and an enthusi­ astic following was on hand to support the teams.

The debating club bowed to the superior club from Mount St. Mary's Academy, Fall River. The judges, Attorneys Harrjngton and McCormick, and Mr. Ernest Flood, gave the Mount team a seven-point victory. We con­ gratulate the winners. We are proud of the two debnters from Holy Family, Joseph Dugan nnd Robert Lawlor.

",was cultivated, temperate in speech, and entirely' devoted to' the best interests (as he saw 'them) of the rest of mankind, especially when they ran parallel with his own. He was morai, or, more precisely, he approved of morality as the best dev.ice .for dealing with the' complexities !lrid difficulties of social life, and particularly useful for the lower classes. ' But he was a man 'totally de­ void of 'faith, who'cherishe~ no foolish dreams of, salvation" a, man who Geither loved God, nor his neighbor, nor himself. He was the complete modern pagan, the man of good will.

What Newman foresaw so clearly in the 1850s and Romains described in' the 1930s, has caught up with us in full force in this mid-century passage. The . Free World is governed and guided by just such men of good will.

'Shadow' of Reality But these men have no faith.

For them God' is a cypher and the natural l~w a figment. They have no real hope, for they see nothing to justify mortality. nor to question the finality of' death.

Charity, not ,as a generous senti­ ment but as the love of God' transmuting.' life and adding the dimension ~f eternal happiness.. is for them no more than a Churchillian enigma wrapped in a mystery. It is simply too good to be 'true. ' These are the men of good will who rule our world. They have annexed the phrase without for a moment probing its validity for them. They' would be vaguely distressed and pained if they were told, bluntly, that they have,no right to it, or that their good will is no more than the shadow 'of reality. They are in fact as far removed from 'genuine good,w.'ill as 'were . .those Jews of . old for whom the first Christmas was only' another day breaking over the hiils, with no glimmer of a vision and no echo of a song, " For that matter, what of our­ selves? How do we fit into the tableau of the shepherds kneel­ ing in the straw before the man­ ger? No saints they, no more our­ selves.. Their good will was that they believed, humbly and sin-' cerely; that they hoped as men who. ·trusted implicitly in the word of God, and that they loved' because God had first loved them. The measure of their good wil! is exactly tl\.e same as ours.

'Swede' Ne'son National Award to Tommy Salvo By' Jack Kineavy Somerset High School Coach

Quick thinking boqt of training and an innate sense of fair play earned for Fall River's Tommy. Salvo, Boston University's yearling center, the c~veted Nils V. "Swede" Nelson Award for Sportsmanshjp given annually by the Gridiron Club of Boston. The anhouncement of Salvo's se­ lection was made last Wed­ nesday night and the presen­

I

tation will take place. on Janu­ ary 11 at a, dinne~ at the Shera­ ion Plaza; .Boston.

Tom is the·first freshman to be

honored in the 12-year history of . the award and the second Boston University player to be singled out for distinction. Everett-Dorr, Terrier place-kicking specialist and Marine Corps hero, was the 1947 recipient., Other distin­ guished awar(~ winners, include Doak Walker, Southern Method-. ist, 1949; Bob Williams, Notre Dame, 1951, and Jim Swink, Texas Christian, 1956. Only one other lineman, . Joe Mitinger, 1952 Yale captain ani tackle, has won the' award.

The award, named in honor of "Swede" Nelson, former Harvard football player anc.. raconteur in- . comparable, is given annually "to the player who by his con­ duct on the gridiron, demon-' strates a high esteem for the football code and exemplifies sportsmanship to. an outstanding degree." The incident which re­ sulted in Salvo's nominatIon oc­ curred at Storrs, Conn., Nov. 8, in a game between the Terrier Pups and the U. Conn. Frosh. .

It was the third period. B.U., down 14-7, was in possession and driving fol!' its second score. The play was an off-tackle smash aimed inside Connecticut's left end, Charley Delbon. After car­ rying out his blocking assign­ ment on the defensive line­ backer, Tom looked up to see

Delborn writhing in pain some five yards away, his right leg bent grotesquely.

Aids Opponent Tom rushed to. the aid of the stricken player, knelt beside him shielding him from further con­ tact and holding his shoulders so that he wouldn't move. "r real­ ized he had a compound frac­ ture," said Tom recalling the situation, "and I yelled to a couple of Connecticut players to call time and get the team doctor on the. field."

The significance of Salvo's act might have escaped public atten­ tion had it not been .for Bob Ingalls, Conn-:.cticut varsity ceach, who was present at the game.. "It was one of the finest examples of sportsmanship and quick thinking I have ever seen," Ingalls related ata football luncheon Ii week later, adding that "because of Salvo, Charley Delbon will be able to play foot­ ball again." . " Is Marine Reserve Tom credits his ·"training in first aid for his' quick analysis of the injury. He's a member of the Marine Reserve' and last summer had an intensive course in first aid at the Newport Naval Base. Emphasis was pl~ced on the employment of primary measures for cl;!rtain type casual­ ties, among them fractures. This - knowledge'.,couplecr with Tom's ability to react instinctively and with good judgment saved Char­ ley Delbon from possibl" further injury. Salvo's action prompted "Swede" Nelson to remark, "Even if Tommy never makes another team or' never plays an­ other game of football, he. has already gone a lot further than some All-Americl players have."

A hand fracture suffered in practice the week before the opening of the 1957 season caused Tom to miss the first three games. It was anticipated

that he'd be out at least six weeks, but the boy worked out with the team each day and with characteristic deter­ mination came back in less than half that time.

Coach Luke Urban, looking for a Mr. Inside to complement speedsters Gordie Andrews and ROn Bridge, moved Tom to the fullback slot where he shone as a power runner. At B.U. the 5'11", 190-pounder was moved back to ·the pivot post.
