He observed that the recent incident at the U.S. embassy could be a protem aimed at informing the outside world about this campaign. The Siberian Christians who made a 2,100 mile trek from Chernogorsk to Moscow iailed in their attempt to leave the Sovie\ Union. Soviet spokesmen reported they hflve been sent back to their homes. One of the group said while at the embassy: "We were told that for our religious beliefs we would be put in prison and that our children would be taken away from us after January 1."

Cuban militia men confiscated their chalices, breviaries and Bibles before imprisoning them with some 200 other brigade members in Ha vana's Principe prison, they said. Father Macho said that Cuban women vis i tin g the prison brought altar breads concealed in scapulars and shirt sleeves, enabling the priests to distribute Communion several times to the prisoners. A small bottle of wine, which was allowed for medicinal purposes, was dispensed by a dropper so that it could be con served for celebration of Mass whenever possible. Confessions were heard regularly.

The' Capuchin priest stated that no meat or milk was served during the 20 months the priests were imprisoned. and they had eggs only four times. He said the meals generally consisted of the following: breakfast - black coffee and a small muffin; lunch - un seasoned macaroni and' either boiled pumpkin or yuca (a food similar to the. u.s. sweet pa tato); dinner-rice and Chinese beans always.

NEW YORK (NC) - U. S. 4!:atholic colleges and universi. ties continued to share in Ford Foundation grants to strengthen private higher education and the preparation of teachers in 1962. This is revealed in the annual 1'eport of the huge philanthropic assQciation w hi c h allocated $125,593,998 for education in the United States last year. Total grants for all purposes came to $255.7 million. Actual 1962 payments to U. S. Catholic institutions of higher education, as distinct from pledges, came to a total of $1,102,188, the report shows. Pledges The foundation's biggest gen eral education program contin. ued to be massive pledges for the development of selected pri vate liberal arts colleges. Last year it promised $41.6 million to 21 institutions for this purpose. The College of St. Thomas, St. Paul, Minn., and Xavier College, Chicago, each were pledged $1.5 million in Ford money. Each recipient must nise $2 for every $1 pledged by Ule foundation. St. Thomas was given $350,000 of the total last year and St. Xavier was given $285,000 of the promised gift. Notre Dame University is also • participant in this program. It was pledged $4,925,000 in 1961 and last year was paid $316,863. .In its project to strengthen the preparation of college teac.hers.

CLEVELAND (NC)-A Bishop from India disclosed here that he has an unusual weapon for fight ing social evils-a button fac tOry, supervised by nuns. o Bishop Anthony Padiyara of Ootacamund in South India, said 99.9 per cent of 38,000 Catholics in his 3,000-square mile diocese· belong to the lowest of India's castes. Without the factory, which employs 50 Christian girls, many would have to work for rich, non-Christian families who do not value chastity very highly, he said. "Before independence, British families living in the region cared for many of the low caste Harijans," the Bishop noted. "One British family might em ploy three or four Indian fam ilies. The problem was created when the British left. The Hari jans were left without homes or a place to stay." .To solve the problem, the India Governnient gave five acres of land to each landless fwnily. Bishop Padiyara got his people to pool their land and he started an Indian version of a housing project. The Bishop said that with tim ber in plentiful supply, and local . people who were able pitching in to provide free labor, decent family dwellings were built for $700.

'Whole Pattern 1$ Wrong' Sociologist Says Adults Abetting Harmful Trend Among Teenagers ST. LOUIS (NC) - Parents and teachers are encouraging a dancing-dating process among teenagers that is hindering their development i n t 0 responsible adults, according to a priest-so~ ciologist. "Reactions of parents, teachers and youth leaders range from relatively ineffective denuncia tions of steady dating to promo tion of programs unwittingly calculated to perpetuate the very problems they were designed to solve," says Father John L. Thomas, S.J. The Jesuit priest, writing in the January issue of Social Or der, monthly publication of the Institute of Social Order, says
that nobody seems to favor the
trend toward early couple-cen
tered entertainment "yet every
body is actively promoting it." "Once the ear 1 y dancing dating process gets started," Father Thomas states, "it be comes practically self-promoting. Growing youngsters look for ward to it; parents, teachers and youth leaders take it for granted; the social life of teenagers is .organized to promote it, and al ternate forms of entertainment almost cease to exist." Need Set of Values He says that the whole pattern of this process is wrong, and "the most fundamental need of adolescents is to develop an in

'Ilhis in turn calls for a longer formal education on the part of youth, and less attention to' so cial life, especially in the form of ·couple-~entered parties. But if youngsters "are not in tellectually and spiritually chal lenged by a keen sense of per soRal responsibility for their own future and that of their own country," says Father Thomas, "they can be expected to show little enthusiasm for serious study or long-range prepara tion."

Organization of a girls' board. ing school is the latest accom. plishment of Rev. ,rohn Breen, Maryknoll Missioner from Fall River who has served in various Guatemalan m iss ion stations since his ordination in 1951. "The girls enrolled could not speak Spanish," he notes in a letter to friends in Fall River. "The nuns taught them the fun. damentals and they have now started on a more formal pro gram - Spanish, reading and writing, hygiene, first aid, sew ing, weaving, rug making, care of clothes, care of babies and . children and (this will surprise you)-carpentry-each girl in the first year will make a crib, a table and chairs and a trunk in which to keep clean clothes." Busy Place The missioner reports that a clinic which he previously founded at his mission of San Pedro Soloma in Huehuetenango "continues to be a busy place. We had a very bad epidemic in the late Spring, which resulted in many deaths. The sister nurse was very busy. Thank God we had such a good supply of drugs from the States." Father Breen this Fall visited either Latin American countries gathering ideas for girls' and boys' vocational schools, and has also recently operated a three week catechetical school. . "About 100 men attended and lived on the premises. We hope the men all received the drive they need for the coming year." Another important activity took place in December when the Sisters and Father Breen vis ited surrounding villages to en. roll children for the grammar and boarding schools for the next academic year. "It is al ways hard to get the chilldren, but nothing like it was in the first years," he writes. Father Breen is a native of St. Joseph's parish, Fall River, and was brought up in Holy Name parish.

The church, which replaces for the 50 Catholics in the vil lage of Keadby. near here the barbershop where they had been attending Sunday Mass, is close to the site of the old shrine. Norbertine Fathers, formally known as the Canons Regular of Premontre, staff the church. According to a still existing papal . bUll, the Norbertines handed the original shrine over
to the Carthusians in 1399.
The. new church is part of the
Norbertines' parish of CowIe which covers 13 villages in the rural district ofAxholme, Lin colnshire.

Many people are disappointed that the Second Vatican Council hasn't yet addressed itself to the social problem and are asking, more or less impatiently, what-if anything-is likely to be said about it during the second Coune.il session. They are wondering what the Council will have to say spread that social and commun ity sense which, in the words of about the over-riding prob lem of war and peace, about Pope 'John, is "innate in true

State Acts for Family Church-Related Schools Support
Basic Principle of Constitution
NOTRE DAME (NC) ' - A, University of Notre -Dame facul ty member maintains that gov ernment support of church-re lated schools does not violate the principle of separation of Church and State "since the state acts for the family, not only for the Church, and, does not itself espouse any religious doctrine." Herbert L. Johnson, associate professor of philosophy at Notre Dame University, contends that "to refuse this help is to deny to the parents who wish it pub lic assistance in education to which they have a right as citi zens." Johnston expresses his views in ,a new book, "A Philosophy of Education." Designed for use at either the graduate or under graduate level, the book is the latest in the "Catholic Series in Education," published by Mc,:" Graw-Hill, New York. Parents' Right "Parents have the primary obligation to e d u ca t e their children and hence the' primary right to choose the means of doing so," Johnston insists. "The state, like the Church, is in the field of school education pri marily to help the family and is the educational agent of the family. Parents who wish in struction in sacred doctrine for their children should have the help of the state in this as in other forms of ed,ucation." While the f.amily is the first educating agency and while it bas educational rights that no other agency has given it or may take away, its rights are not un limited, Johnston observes. Par ents have a right to educate their children, "not to fail to do .c, and to educate them in truth and goodness, not in falsehood and vice," he writes. State Requirements '(This is why," Johnston con tinues, "the state quite reason ably imposes a minimum school leaving age, insists that certain intellectual standards be met in the schools, and, in extreme cases, takes children away from parents who are seriously neg
lecting their upbringing. This is why the Church quite reason ably insists that parents uSe every available means for their children's education in religWus doctrine and' practice, though her sanctions are of a different character from those of the state." The Notre Dame philospher claims that the state has the duty to maintain, "on the same basis on which it maintains public schools for those who wish them, religiously affiliated schools for those who wish them." He aqswers the standard 'Ob jection that church - related schools are divisive and undemo cratic. They are certainly divi sive, but sO also are existing differences in color, ethnic ori gin, in political affiliationS, in economic interests, in social standing and in a 'hundred other things," he writes.

Pope John also said he hOlies that St. Bernardino of Siena, a 15th century Franciscan apostle of that devotion, can soon be name,d a Doctor of the Church. Look:lng vigorous and full of life, the Pope spoke for almost half an hour at the audience in the Vatican's Clementine Hall and said of the New Year: "Let us hope that we can travel well through this year that is starting. It is long. It consists of 365 days. But the grace of God helps us all." :Lifetime Devotion Pope John said in his talk that he hopes to have the Name of the Saviour on his lips when he dies. Noting that the day was the feast of the Holy Name of Jesus, the Pope said.that from his ear liest da,ys he has had devotion to that name. He recalled that his grandfather's brother had told thE' future Pope on his First Communion day to have devo tion to Jesus, His Name and His Blood. He also recalled the passage' in the Acts of the Apostles ia which St. Peter commanded a sick man in the Name of Jesu to arise and walk.

PAVU
Time magazine's choice of Pope John as Man of the Year focused the attention of the United States and a goodly portion of the world on the qualities that have en deared the ,Pope to all men of good will. His human touch, his all-embracing sympathy with all men-these are quali ties that have reached out and worked a marvelous trans formation in the religious atmosphere of our times.
REV. JAMES A. CLARK Assistant, St. Mary's Church ' 'New Bedford
It is amazing to look back only a few years and to see the way religious prejudice has crumbled under his example of charity toward all men. The wonders that he . has accomplished in bringing this about almost seems like a more than natural pheno~enon.
The Missioner Has A Wife "Yes, we understand, you. work for the Church. But what about this woman r asked a small knot of men ill
And another quality that he has brought before the eyes of Christians as a precious part of their heritage is the virtue of optimism. Eminently a realist and not one to expect the unexpected, the Pope, nevertheless, touches all his talks and actions with the happy assurance that God is above all the' focus of men's lives and men of good will are happiest in accepting and working according to His Holy Will. In talking to prisoners or the sick or diplomats or non Catholics, the Pope's words reflect always a serene optimism ,and a joyful spirit that the translations from the Italian do not always indicate. Indeed, one suspects that the trans lators do not dare always translate the asides and quips that seem to spring spontaneously from his full and happy heart. And the world is badly in need of optimism.

It is fashionable in serious writing- to trot out the old ery that never in all the long history of mankind have the times been so perilous. The Holy Father, while recognizing tully the eVIls of 'the day and the difficulties of the future, is not afraid to face these with' serenity' and a calm evalu ation. And his example has warmed the hearts of others and lifted their spirits' and eyes and given them a right per spective of the times in which they are privileged to live. It is truly remarkable that, from time to time in the history of the' world, a gQod man rises up to charige the vironment in which men live. There is no'denYlng that Pope John has been one of these men-not self-consciously or as ,/ the result of a deliberate plan-but just by being himself.

He shows what one man, filled with the happiness of loving God and men, can accomplish.
Capitalistic A rare letter in the Communist newspaper Izvestia asked the paper to open its pages to a' discussion of what eould be done to provide just plain fun in the leisure hours of the Soviet worker. An earnest plea made by a mechanic named V. Larkin expressed what must be a great frustration in the heart of many a tried and true Communist. This mechanic speaks for a host of his fellows when he decries the party-line lec. tures and slogan-strewn dance floors and park paths lined with posters and production diagrams that _are offered as relaxation to the Soviet worker in his off hours. Communism, it seems, has no time for just plain

And it -may be that the tedium is beginning to pall on even the most loyal of its followers. Perhaps this is the reason behind Premier Khrush ehev's stated intention to visit Disneyland-a proposal that was denied him on the grounds of security problems, with a resultant disappointment that provoked a mood second only to his famed shoe-pounding stint at the United Nations. The poor man was only trying to bootleg a bit~f Capital istic fun. One wonders at the policy changes in Communism an unrestrained enjoyment of Disneyland could have pro duced! "So here is another chink in the Red armor. And here is another point for, the democratic system: fun is compatible with duty and morality and strength. It could be that the greatest appeal that democracy will have for those behind the Iron Curtain lies in the faces of men and women and ehild~en smiling.

The hymn for the presen tation and preparation of gifts (Offertory) has the same theme: the wise men as kings, represen tatives of all peoples, showing their subjection to the mani fested Word by means of gifts. Our singing at this point ill the Mass unites us :for the obla tion, the sacrifice, to follow, which will be offered under the poor, simple signs of our human labor (bread and wine). We sing our self-offering, the "spiritual lacrifice" of our Christian lives, and our intentions. TOMORROW - Mass 88 _ Epiphany. The last of these great congregational hymns ill the Roman liturgy is the one we sing as we approach the holy table (Communion). Now our singing is not so much of aspira tion as of confidence, acceptance, the enjoyment and relishing of the salvation Christ l)as won once for all. It is common song and a community demonstration prop erly because our sharing h~ effects a unity in love, in God builds the solidarity of the Church. This banquet, this Holy Supper, is itself an epiphany o.f the sonship and brotherhood es tablished by Jesus. ST. MARY ON SATURDAY. Today's Mass is again a Mass of Christmas, of Jesus' Birth, and of Mary's motherhood. The four hymns of the Mass are all in her honor. We share her joy in her election, her faith in' the dimly understood promise of the Lord.

divine truth is the more recent effort to I;estore to our public worship, especially the Mass, its social and communal character. Those Catholics who are still unable to realize the necessity of active participation in the Mass (by coope~ting in a com mon prayer and song) have for gotten that the Eucharist is the community's worship and that It is worship of one another (rec ognition of worth, reverence, re spect) at the same time as it • adoration of God.

The Church celebrates her great teachers not because they pOllsessed wisdom but be cause they shared it with their brothers, not because of their in sights into the meaning of Jesus Christ but because they opened their hearts and minds to their fellow travelers (if we may al low ourselves the expression), their fellow pilgrims. So the familiar Gospel of salt and light (first part) and of or thodoxy (second) and, the First Reading's . underscoring of the urgency of Jesus' Message-these are lessons in social responsibil ity. "The mouth of the saint speaks wisdom" (Gradual). ~UESDAY-St. Paul, Hermit. The Christ has come (Christmas) and has manifested himself as "our leader" (Epiphany) that we might be elevated from doubt to certainty, from isolation and es trangement to community, from hopeless wandering to purpose ful direction. This identification of ourselves with Jesus, with the Mystery of His pilgrimage through time and the world, is the great work of the liturgy. It is beautifuIJ7 summed up in the First Reading: " ... so that I may know him and the power of his resurrection anil the fellowship of his suffer ings: become like to him in death, in the hope that somehow I may attain to the resurrection from the dead."

Favors Marian Quarterly
Bishops Attain New Awareness Of Selves
BOSTON (NC) - Publication of a new magazine to convey the findings of Marian theology to a larger non-specialized and even non-Catholic public has been proposed at the 14th annual convention of the Mariological Society oi America here. Richard Cardinal CUshing, Archbishop of Boston suggested the society publish a quarterly magazine presenting Marian the.' ology in terms, appropriate for the average layman. He pro posed the title Mary Today for the magazine and advised that it, parallel the magazine the Bible Today, which presents biblical studies in popular language. "I don't want another of the thousand leaflets and booklets on novenas, litanies and devo tions to Our Blessed Lady," he said. "I want a practical presen tation of your scholarship." He described popular devo. tion to Mary today as "tremen dously inspirational" but in need of "deep,er intellectual roots." The Cardinal offered to subsi dize the expenses of publishing a new, popular magazine for the first year.
PAR I S (NC) - The Church's bishops coming to gether in the Second Vati can Council have realized in the fullness of their assembly "the solidarity and world re sponsibility of the episcopate," according to a leading French theologian. Father Yves Congar, O.P., said that through the Council~ "The episcopate found itself. It saw itself. It became aware of itself." The, Dominican priest, who served both as a consultor to the Council's preparatory theolog ical commission as a Council "expert," said that this is an "irreversible" thing in the life of the Church and has "incalcu lable importance." Father Congar said that the Council put an end to "the trivial image of the bishop in his bish opric, merely at the head of a diocese dealing with day to day problems which are sometimes paltry." One Body What the Council Fathers have already achieved is the feeling of being one body, according to the theologian. He called it the "spirit of the Council," and said it is in close harmony with that of His Holiness Pope,John XXIII. He cOQtinued: ' "This,: is 'a spirit of freed~m and liberty, free of all servility and of~ll" consideration, of,per-, ' 80nal interest. It is a spirit, of , aervice to men, freed of' any overlording attit1,lde and expec tation privilege··· It is lili evangelical and 'apostolic spirit, , a spirit of respect and love for people, and anxious to uphold their liberty and their dignity. It is even a spirit of openheart edness toward others, relieved of any spirit of theological or clerical triumph. It is moreover, an intense attentiveness to what God, Who speaks through these happenings, is asking of His Church today ••• "

SAN FRANCISCO (NC) The dean of Sacramento's Epis copal cathedral has' sent a gift "as a small token of friendship" to help rebuild St. Mary's Roman Catholic cathedral here. Dean Malcom E. McClenaghan of Trinity Episcopal cathedral sent the gift i,n a letter to Arch bishop Joseph T. McGucken of San Francisco, whose cathedral was razed in a $2.5 million ,fire last September. Dean McClenaghan wrote that the gift was "not a mere book keeping procedure through our parish treasury," but that it was " made up by smaller individual gifts of our members of this parish." "This is a way of sharing at the grass root level some of the deep urge toward unity that does exist among us," he added. The Dean said he was sending the gift in the spirit of an Eng lish Roman Catholic priest who, when he sent a check to an An glican parish whose church was destroyed during World War II by bombs, said he could do so "conscience-free" to help "tear down what was left of the old structure."

There appears to be no more of that deliberate setting of per son a g a ins t person, group against group in order to insure tight, control from the top. Subtler methods are presently used. Actually there is a minimum, if any, of the freedom which we take for granted in the United States.

Practice Debates The debating club at Holy Family High School in New Bed ford has been carrying on an active program. Last week the club participated in the Mt. St. Mary's Novice tournament with Maureen O'Grady and Kathleen Kennedy upholding the aHirma· tive and Mary Ellen Newby and Mary M~uillan supporting the negative. The same team will compete in the .University Of. New Hampshire Novice tourna. ment on Saturday, Jan. 12. The topic for both tournaments: Free Trade. Yesterday the Narragansett Debate League held its· second meeting of the school year at M1. St. Mary's Academy in Fall River.

Fall River Brother Sails Blue South Pacific As Missio,nary of Sacred Heart
CHICAGO (NC) - Pre paration of "the white com munity to accept integration peacefully" is particularly
By Patricia MeGowan,
necessary "because of the depth of white ignorance" in regard to
problems posed by segregation, the leader of an antidiscrimina tion committee said here. John Kearney, executive di rector of the United Citizens Committee for Freedom of Resi dence, told a seminar sponsored by the International Catholic Auxiliaries there are many things that can be done to pre pare white communities for in tegration. . "One of the simplest and most dramatic," he stated, is "a plan whereby a small group of white visitors is brought into the home of a Negro family for an hour's serious conversation about race relations." Change Attitudes Referring to this as the Friendship House Educational Home Meeting, Kearney added: "We have found from the thou sands of people who have parti cipated in these. visits 'over the past few years, a great many incidences of rather dramatic changes in attitudes as a direct result." Kearney, who is also national director. of Friendship House, a Catholic movement for inter racial justice, said that programs' formed for community under standing often e vol v e into human relations councils that in_ vestigate causes of discrimina tion in employment and housing.

"Man-made satellites are whirling around the earth now Ify the dozens, messages and images are being bounced from Telstar to every nation under heaven, and medicine is steadily stretching the life expectancy of mankind," he commented. "Still, Christian nations are not doing anything nearly as spectacular in advancing social justice and charity. In our own midst many devout Catholics would be more than satisfied to keep the social order exactly as it is:,with all its injustice, with . all its lack of charity and with all its offensiveness to human dignity," Bishop Tracy observed.

"The manifestation of the Holy Spirit, working through our zealous missionaries in the Far East, is most striking," Father Stone said.

Study Week The Bangkok study week in which Father' Stone took part was held to study the new cate. chetical apoatolate. Participants agreed that the apostolate in. eludes such ideas as these: It is a mission imparted by the Church to participate in Christ's proclamation of the good news of salvation to men. It aims not at knowledge as such but at a living faith, re sponding to God's call. Its message emphasizes con centration on the central theme' of God's love as manifested in Jesus Christ.

Further Debate on Birth' Control Plan
Educators Urge Religion Course In Public School
CHICAGO (NC)-A mem ber "Of the Illinois Public Aid Commission has said further debate is due on many details of the commission's new birth control program for public reliefers. Michael J. Howlett, the state auditor of public accounts, noted in a statement that "rules and regulations for making the birth control policy operational re main to be drawn by the IPAC staff and approved by the com mission." The commission voted six to four in early December to' use tax funds to supply birth control information and devices to any public reliefer "with a spouse or child" who makes a request. Howlett, an opponent of the program, said questions to be debated by the commission in elude these: . Religion Issue "What to do with a caseworker who refuses in conscience to make referrals fOJ 'family plan ning' advice? Or another case workers who suggests referrals to a recipient without waiting for a 'request'? . "Will we pay' for every kind of contraception any doctor may prescribe, or only approve cer tain prescriptions? Will the reli lion of the recipient, if any, make any difference. in the )PAC. procedures covering a Ipecific case?" Howlett's statement reiterated his belief that distribution' of birth control devices, expected to be mostly the so-called oral contraceptives, will promote adultery and promiscuity. He noted tliat the program is aimed largely at mothers of children on public relief. But he noted that in cook ·County (Chi cago) alone, 82.3 per cent of the mothers on relief are not living with a legal husband. Supplying. these women with birth control devices, he said, encourages adultery.
Birth Control Talk
Brings Reprimand
BOSTON (NC) - The execu tive responsible for a lecture Oft birth control methods, given to four public employees during working hours in a hall rented from a Catholic church, has been severely reprimanded, it has been disclosed by the Boston Re development Authority. The lecture was given in the parish hall of St. Richard's Church in nearby Roxbury, by a representative of the Planned Parenthood Federation to two men and two women who are working to relocate families dis placed by a redevelopment pro ject in the area. The parish hall is being rented by the authority as a temporary locaroffice for the Washington Park Project in Roxbury. Walter Smart, manager of the Washington Park Project, who authorized the lecture, was re primanded for setting policy without authorization and for taking action that could injure or destroy the redevelopmel)t program. A promotion and sal ary increase which had been ap proved' for him were rescinded:

Then news starts coming out about the closing of Seminaries, churches and synagogues. Hamper Orthodox The Massachusetts priest men tioned a letter which Soviet Pre mier Nikita Khrushchev publis hed in the Soviet organ Pravda back in 1954, protesting against a similar campaign which Com somol, the Soviet youth organi-/ zation, was conducting. Father Bissonnette said that Comsomol was probably chosen at that time as a "sacrifical lamb" to quiet protests. One of Khrushchev's objec tions in his 1954 letter was that some communist party members were thrown out of the party be cause of trumped-up charges of religious activity. . Father Bissonnette said that in the curren't campaign. Soviet authorities have even started clamping down on Russian Or thodox activities - usually the last denomination affected - by closing down some of their semi naries. He. said that the autho rities have had trouble with the Jehovah's Witnesses who refuse to serve in the armed forces.

Growing Church Is Facing Need Of Mo:re' Funds FRESNO (NC) - Im .proved. means of raising church funds are necessary to meet "the needs of the growing Church," according to Auxiliary ,Billhop Harry A. Clincb of Monterey-Fresno. The California prelate says the clergy "have been inclined to sell the Catholic layman shore' by shielding the laity from "the hard facts of parish and diocesan costs." Laymen. "want adequate religious and educational facilities too much
to be dismayed at paying the pro rata cost," he declared, add- . ing the approach must be "spiritual, reasonable and prac tical." Common Goal . Bishop Clinch said: "Organ ized parish and diocesan finance is a new pastoral approach to church support, one which brings spiritual and practical re sults. It is an organized effort to spread the cost over the greatest number of adherents. It is re lieving the bishop and priest of bearing the entire cross. "It gives the average Catholic :t new satisfaction by becoming an active participant in his Church's progress. It makes for greater parish cooperation and coordination. It brings priest and 'people together in a new under standing with a common goal. "Properly done it will clear away most obstacles to adequate church facilities, educational functions. ,"elfgl'c work and-a fuller practice of the Faith."

They are like 'prayer groups."
schools has been asked by tbe Caraquet Acadian Association of Education in a brief presented to the government.

Forerunner of Men With Uncommitted Minds By Most Rev. Robert J. Dwyer, D. D. Bishop of Reno
"Say not the struggle naught availeth : •." If ever alnan were remembered on the strength of a single line, or at most of a single poem, he was Arthur Hugh Clough. Contemporary and intimate of John Henry Newman, Matthew and Thomas Ar nold, Deans Stanley and as a wanderer though the mists Church, he seemed destined, of disillusion.

Rip e scholar, sensitive poet, a teacher beyond comp are, he might well have carved for him self a niche in society and in an era where hum a n values were still rec ognized as su preme. Instead, he never pulled it off. He died young, still in his forties, but loQg be~ore that he had mad~ his "great refusal". His most recent biographer, Katherine Chorley, calls him "The Uncommitted Mind", and with rare perception. He could not even commit hiin self to life. Afraid of World W hen Winston Churchill quo ted Clough's poe m s at one of the most anguished mo ments of our times he shed an instant o,f light over the poet's memory and invested him with a courage which Clough" actual ly,was far from sharing. For Clough was afraid of the world, his times, and of allmor tals save those in the select in ner circle of his friendship and affection. A man of intense reli gious feeling, he yet stemmed his religiosity, or rather dammed it up behind a wall of skeptiCism, borrowed from Strauss and his IlChool of Higher Criticism. Attracted strongly to Catholi cism, at least during the years immediately preceding New man's conversion, he neverthe less forced himself into a frame work of indifference. It may be tz'ue, as Miss Chorley suggests, tIlat his acquaintance with Wil liam George Ward, the Oxford CQnvert and stormy petrel, was too heady a brew for his blood, and that Ward's very impetuos ity drove the sensitive Clough deeper into nis shell. Mists of Disillusion At all events, where Newman left Oxford for Rome, Clough left Oxford for the bleak desert of. indifference. He could not in eonscience subscribe to the Thirty-Nine Articles, and he re eoileci. from the compromises which so many of his contempa raries;, including the future Dean Stanley, arranged within their souls. He deserves at least the honor of. his honesty. If he could not commit his mind -to belief, to faith, he was man enough not to earn his bread on the basis of pretence. Oxford lost thereby one of its finest scholars; But the pity is that having left Oxford he could find no where else a home for his spirit. The last decade or so of his life, after his resignation, was spent

BERLIN (NC) - The bishop who serves as secretary to the Polish Hierarchy declared in a sermon in Warsaw that Poland's . communist regime "harassed and oppressed" the Church even as the Polish Bishops were pro moting the nation's good at the Ecumenical Council. • Auxiliary Bishop Zygmunt Choromanski of Warsaw told a congregation of 3,000 that 1962 "was a sad year for the Church" in Poland. , Stefan Cardinal Wyszynski, Primate of Poland, presided at another service in suburban· Warsa w the same day and told his people that Pope John has a deep "understanding of the situ ation of the Polish nation and of the- Catholics of Poland." Ridiculous Charge In imparting a special papal
blessing he said that Pope
John is "deeply impressed by the devotion of Polish Catholics to the Faith." He asked the people to pray for the Pope. Bishop Choromanski in his talk said that the communist regime had closed eight Catholic educational institutions in the past year. "You can count on your fingers the poor remnants of. Catholic schools," he said.
"Hundreds of Catholic kinder gartens have been closed. Sisters are bE~ing removed from hos pitals:" In an apparent reference to the visit to Rome last Fall by Zenon Kliszko, a member of the Communist par t y politburo, Bishop Choromanski said that "a high government official talked about a concordat in Rome." But he said that "as long as there is no freedom of reli gion there can be no talk about a coneordat" between Poland and the Holy See. The Bishop said that the com. munist regime has been trying to convince people that "the Pope is for peace but the Bishops of Poland are not." He said that "this is just ridiculous."

The Amateur Athletic Union, for its part, refuses to acknowledge the jurisdiction of the N.C.A.A. and as a result both organizations h a v e threatened track and field participants who eompete in meets sanctioned by either group. At the risk of oversimplifica tion, the issue seems to revolve about which organization is to exercise complete authority in the matter of selection of the track and field squads to repre sent the U.

Kidd's major competition is expected tQ come from Pete McArdle of the N.Y.AA. whom the Toronto Flyer upset three years ago en route to the K-C MVP award. The mile even has local flavor in the person of Steve Paranya of Lexington who will wear the colors of the Quantico Marines. He'll be going against Bill D0t son of Kansas, a sub-4 minute miler, and Viv Zwalak of Vil lanova who has toured the dis tance in a very respectable 4:05 clocking. This should be another real crowd pleaser. Loeal Track On the inti!rscholastic level, the fledgling Wareham High squad turned in a splendid effort in the 47th Annual Indoor Track and Field Games at the Huntington Avenue Y.M.C.A. last Saturday. Outstanding' was Paul Barnett's 35.3 clocking for the 300 yard run, the first time the promising sophomore assayed the distance in competition. Falmouth regis tered a first in the shotput when . Goorge Kahler got the ball out 48 feet and Mike Lopes, also of Falmouth, checked in with a 8-3 effort in the high jump to tie for first in that event. Dan Fernandes of Wareham pulled up second in the two mile and teammate Tom Britto placed thir'Q in the high jump. Barnstable annexed a pair of thirds, Ed McCarthy in the 600 yard run and Bill McWilliams in the shot. Jim Harrison of New Bedford finished third in the' mile and the Crimson relay team. posted another third in the final event. These are indeed signifi cant achievements when it is con sidered that indoor track facili ties in Southeastern Mass. are not even close to comparable
with those in the Greater Boston

were Ohio State and Minnesota.
Coaches select the retreat , house because it offers their players an opportunity for rest and quiet which they cannot get in hotels where there are New Year's eve celebrations.
