Complete· Family Coverage This Year's Goal

The Anchor in Biggest Campaign Ever

- The most energetic subscription campaign in ·the Heven-year history of this diocesan news­ . paper will get un~erway next month. .

The ANCHOR anticipates a substantial cir­ I .~ fmlation increase in everyone of the 110 parishes -from Mansfield to f>rovincetown. , The ANCHOR in every home in the diocese is '" ,the aim and objective of the Most Reverend Bishop. "The ANCHOR will broaden the horizon ·of our interest and make us surer and stronger in our Faith," Bishop Connolly said. . "I am· only too ready to endorse the coming ~mpaign for new subscriptions and look and

pray for a whole-hearted, enthusiastic response," the Ordinary declared as he indicated his in­ terest in attaining -complete family coverage throughout the width and breath of the diocese.

"The more people who read The ANCHOR the less there will be areas of seeming neglect or no man's land. Everyone can and should feel that he surely belongs. And an excellent way to achieve this is to become acquainted more and more widely through the pages of The ANCHOR," Bishop Connolly emphasized.

Pope Paul VI has many times aluded to the· efficacy of the diocesan press durin~ his com-

paratively short tenure as the Supreme Pontiff of the Roman Catholic Church. His Holiness has been one of the staunchest supporters of the Catholic Press as ArGhbishop of Milan during his service in the Papal Secretariat of State.

The true value of the. Catholic press was never more forcibly demonstrated than during the two sessions of Vatican Council II. The ANCHOR, with its own writers on the scene, brought the intimate details of the working of the Council to its people in complete, condensed, concise and clear manner.

Augustinian Urges Development Of Adult-Centered Parishes

ANCHOR

ST. PAUL (NC) - Parish education efforts should be reoriented to develop adult­ centered instead of child-centered communities. This is the view of Father Dennis Geaney, O.S.A., of Fort Wayne, Ind., who has written that the major portion of' parish finances~ time and energy is too often spent on the parish school, resulting in too great an emphasis "on the. ~roup which be involved in fields like urban has the lea;st ,~nfluen~e on. re.newal and interfaith relations. the commumty.

The Bishop gave a brief talk urging the people to cooperate with Father Hiegel in restoring the full Catholic li.e of the par_ ish.

Hundreds lined up outside makeshift confessionals among the palm trees. Baptisms con­ tinued throughout most of the day, and the Bishop himself con­ firmed 2'15 persons.

This classification is given to certain films which, while not morally offensive in themselves, require caution and some anal­ ysis and explanation as a protec. tion to the uninforJDed against wrong interpretationll and false conclusions.

creasing spread of religious con­ victions in the Soviet Union, ac- ' cording to an analysis made here in Germany by the Institute for the Study of the USSR. Valery M. Albert, a Ukranian­ born journalist, made the analy_ sis for the institute, which lists itself as "a free corporation of scholars who have left the Soviet Union."

Albert says that unlike earlier drives against religion "the pres­ ent campaign has obliged the .Soviet authorities to admit that religious convictions not only are extremely widespread among all sections of the Soviet popula­ tion, including the Party and the Komsomol (Young Communist League), but that they exhibit a tendency to spread further and further."

Drawing heavily on articles in Soviet publications, Albert says there has been an increase in the Soviet Union in religious festi­ vals and in the number of fam­ ilies going to church, and that there have even been reported cases of christenings in the fam­ ilies of Communist party mem. bers.

Doctors Lecture Albert says that according tG the Soviet press the antireligious activity has increased since June.

Quoting from the antireligious journal Nauka i Religiya (Sci­ ence and Religion), he says: "In villages, schools, clubs and li­ braries, atheism corners have appeared, more lectures on sci­ .entific atheism are being given," and leading doctors and journal­ ists are geing recruited to give lectures."

"Scientific atheistic propa­ ganda and agitation are officially acknowledged to be the basic methods of combating religion in the USSR," Albert continues, and the former practice of con­ tending with religion through s u c h measures as closing churches has been judged fruit­ less.

It's pro1)able that Paul had about as much success as any man has in dis­ eussing the attempts women mouths. It's just plain cheap make to ruin their appear­ looking. Besides, they look like ance.

(Joan earth for a visit, he'd prob­ Rattner, ''Bpauty Expert George ably wonder sometimes why he ever thought a woman's hair was her "crown­ ing glory." It's probably true, too. that the things women do to, their hair tQday are child­ ishly s imp I e when compared to the farnoll!, battle scenes or plays they used to work into their "crowning glory" in the 18th Century. But Paul would see enough today to wonder what keeps this top­ heavy curio from falling over, if not from imbalance, from sheer self-consciousness.

Have Various Names Lots of people are making lots of moneY these days in discov':' ering lots of new ways of twist­ ing and torturing and trimming and tinting women's hair. Not all tills is bad, because some­ times it helps. Nobody wants to stop women from trying to keep their hairattraetive-on the con­ tr.ary.

My female-type spies tell me that these attempts have various names, most o~ which describe them pretty accurately: There's the' Pixie, for, instance, which loOks pretty good on the right ,pixie. You could say the same about the Bubble,' the Empire, the'French Roll, the Marienbad, the Duck Cut, the Italian Boy, and the Pony Tail.

Mere Man's Opinion Then there are the Bouffant and the Bee-Hive, which admit­ tedly c'luld improv.e the right person on the right occasion, but which usually make a teen­ ager look more like she's wear­ ing a hairy crash-helmet filled with water, Now one trouble with some female types is th,," generally speaking, they decorate them­ selves 'so they'll look nice to the male population, and, then when some foolhardy man tells them they~vEo goofed. he becomes a "'lnere man."

Aoove all, t.hese . types would never believe that a priest knew anything about women's hair styles; even though he has to face t.hese atrocities fairly often, and, even though he might ,get much of his informAtion from the horse's mouth, so to speak.

'Look Like Monsters' There are, moreover, some few mere men who are respected by ladies 6ld and, young, and among these are the fa~hion or beauty experts and! hair-stylists.

So; consider what one George Masters, a famous Hollywood­ New York hair stylist, has to say about some of the teenagers' bair-dos (Of course, this .guy is pretty well over the' hill, about ,25 years· old, so this may dis­ count his'testimony): "So many teen_age ,girls today look like Jnsters with their huge heads and short skirts. I don't think they realize how they look or they'd stop it" (Not bad for a.n opener, that.) "They look a mess."

And togo off into kindred fields: "And the makeup! It's arnnazing that ~arents would let their daughters out of: the house with those dirty, black-lined eyes. with the green or bright blue eye-shadow, and the white

Masters says 'Don't be a teen­ age monster!'" TBIS WEEK.) Expert Opillion Now if kindly old Father said that, it would indicate that he just didn't know. But Mr. Mas­ ters IS an eX.lert Taste is a good criterion for artificial beauty, as a matter of fact. But more than taste enters in here, too. It's a good thing to have enough vanity to see that your personal appearance is non-repulsive and even pleasant.

But when it turns into so much vanity that only personal' ap­ pearance seems to count, and when that appearance has to be not just pleasant but overwhelm_ ing, thin.gs are .getting 'way out of proportion. So, incidentally, is taste.

Time Wasted When it takes hours for a young girl to paint and plaster and upholster and glue her ap; pearance into the state she fig­ ures it should be, this is time wasted. There is a loveliness and freshness to youth which is real beauty, and whicbis "only ruined by belaboring it.

Ther~'s some parallel here with booze: the old may need a shot now and then to help them regain some of the vigor of youth, but young people need no such injectinns. With increas­ ing age, a lady may have to spend more and more time' fash­ ioning the illusion Of fewer years and more youthful beauty -but the young don't need to waste time'this way yet.

In fact, if the ancient lady be­ comes pathetic in vainly trying to recapture a lost youth, the teen-aged girl becomes tragic in attempting to anticipate old age.

For Right Purpose We live in a world, Of course, w her e external appearance seems to be everything. Not that this is uinque.. any period of history-even Christ referred to the Pharisees as "whitened sep­ ulchres."

But our age can hold its own with any 'lge in history for its materialism. Not only that, but if it is true that you can judge ..a civilization by its womanhood, you sometimes wonder about the leaning towers you see being constructed on the tops of heads these days.

Hair-dos, cosmetics, dress, or any of the, props of appearance all come under the same general principle: They are good when used for the right purpose, and useless or worse otherwise.

Absolutely everything 'we see and' hear ·and experience has but one genuine purpo$e-to get 'Us to God, either by. its use or its avoidance. ,Weare acting intelli­ gently only when we use things to get us closer to God,aFld we are naive fools when we use them to turn away from Him. God Is Beauty Natural beauty is wonderful and this is only as things Should be, because Goci is Beauty, in­ finite Beauty. We can, in 'fact, get some hazy idea of the Beauty which is God from the limited beauty we see around us.

Some people find "nature"­ the lakes, trees, lOOuntains and such-beautiful and inspiring.

And they are, But the loveliness 6f the human being throws all these other wonderful, yet shad­ owy mirrors Of God into· the background

Catholic:.. Laymen Two Worlds

VATICAN CITY (NC) - The Catholic layman must be a bl!'idge between the profane and spiritual world, Pope Paul VI said: in an address to an Italian group of university graduates.

He' addressed the university gJ!aduates as men who are pre­ paring. themselves for active professional life, who in the fu­ ture will combine' the practice and profession of their Faith with the exercise of their pro­ fessions. Pope Paul added: "The fact, so simple to state and yet so . complex to define, that men like you should call themselves and be Catholics is of very great interest to us."

Acts From W 1 ....

He went on: "YOt- know that our doctrine recognizes for the faithful layman participation in the spiritual priesthood of man and therefore his capacity-in­ deed· his responsibility-for the exercise of the apostolate * * • which arises as the mission proper to the present hour.

"We' spea}c of the consecra­ tion of the world and the sPtl-

cial prerogatives which are at­ tributed to the layman in the sphere of secular life-a sphere ripe' for the possible spreading of the light and grace of Christ ~precisely because he can act on the secular- Wllrld from with_ in * * * while the priest, who is to a large. extent separated from secular life, cannot act on it ex­ cept in an external way, through his words and through his min­ istry * * * .

"Our Catholic laymen have this function of being a bridge.

It is a function which has be­ come extraordinarily important and ina way indispensable. And this is not to insure the Church's interference as a dominating factor in the field of temporal realities and in the framework of worldly aff?irs, but to make sure that the world will not be left without the message of Christian salvation."

Accept Fact That It Is The Church

Two Facts Overshadowed The discussions coming from the two sessions of the Vatican Council and the contents of the Council's decree on the Liturgy have brought before the eyes of Catholics two facts that have been overshadowed for centuries.

Most Catholics, when they receive any of the sacra­ ments, look upon these as sources of God's favor, channels of sanctifying grace, means of making themselves holier persons. And so· they are.

But the factors that have been overlooked are these: that the sac~aments have a social, corporate and public' nature - "to build up the body of Christ" which is the Church; and that the sacraments require dedication and devotion and commitment from these who take part in them - receiving the sacraments gives worship to God. All too often the Catholic receiving anyone of the sacraments concentrates on himself, on what this will do for him, is concerned for his own welfare.' But he must also keep in mind that he is not alone an individual, making his perilous way to God with the grace and by the mercy of God, but that he is a member of a community, a worshipping group, God's holy people, the Church. His actions have consequences not alone for himself but for the whole. His concerns must be not only for himself but for others. He' carries not only a personal name but the name, "Christian" and this is a family name that unites him in Christ to others. His goodness - or lack of it - touches the whole family.

The Catholic receiving anyone of the sacraments must do so not only with the expectation of receiving a benefit from God but with the realization that he is giving some­ thing to God - his faith in God, his commitment to the pathways that lead to God, his acknowledgement that God is the Father to whom children look for spiritual food and support. Receiving the sacraments is not a barren mecha­ nical exercise - it must be done with full awareness, with deep devotion, with wholehearted commitment to use this contact with God as a springboard for a higher way of acting. The reception of a sacrament must be such an act of worship of God that it brings with it into the soul not only an outpouring of grace but a revolution in the life of the worshipper.

Vision From Christian Faith Dr. Eugene Carson Blake, the chief executive officer of the United Presbyterian Church in the United States, has voiced a gratitude that must be seconded by every Christian: "All Americans ought to be thankful that the leaders of the Negro people have caught their vision from their Christian faith."

The civil rights movement is a moral one, rooted in the inherent dignity of man because of the Fatherhood of God, and the country should be grateful that this is the motivating force behind the activities of Negro leaders.

The movement has been one in which Christian minis­ ters have taken the positions of leadersnip. For this reason, there has been an overwhelming amount of faith in God and moderation in action.

Imagine what would have happened by now if such Christianity were not so prevelant? The bitterness and extremism of the Black Muslim sect would have prevailed and the Negro struggle for equality would have erupted into warfare between the races. Or else the leftist elements in the country, so eager to infiltrate situations of unrest, would have turned America« against American and would have distorted the sincerity of the struggle.

It remains, of course, for more Christians to throw their support and the weight of their consciences behind the struggle that has come so far in so short a time under Christian leadership. ..J

By REV. ROBERT W. HOVDA, Catholic Univenrity TODAY-St. Marcellus, Pope, Martyr. "Thou are the Christ, the Son of the living God," rings out the familiar Gospel of the Mass in honor of a pope. It is this declaration of faith which the hierarchical structure of the Church exists to serve and whiclf the Church's liturgical service makes vital and life-giving for the concrete Christian commun· ity here and now.

The sacraments are all signs of faith, especially the central sac­ rament of the Mass, recalling us constantly to these familiar sim. pIe 'words, to Peter's declaration.

TOMORROW - St. Anthony, Abbot. "'Qlessed are those ser­ vants whom the master shall find watching" (Gospel). Know­ ing Christ is not like knowing a thing-once we know it we can turn our attention elsewhere. It is rather entering into a personal relationship and a personal com. mitment.

MASS OF ST. MARY ON SATURDAY. "Justified by his grace," (First Reading) we see in Mary the symbol of us all, of the whole community of salva­ tion which is the Church. Her

freedom from sin and her as­ sumption into glory are signals . of God's mercy and His grace toward mankind.

Every Mass celebrated in her honor is thus an especially vivid thanksgiving for redemption in Jesus Christ, expressed in terms of lavish praise for what God has done in her.

SECOND SUNDAY AFT E R EPIPHANY. Yesterday we be­ gall' an annual week of prayer for Christian reunion. And to­ day's Mass celebrates in both Gospel and Communion Hymn the marriage union of Cana as another sign of Christ's epiph­ any, of His manifestation as Lord of lords. Both have great relevance for this season, for· the Christ, whose coming has been our theme, is Himself the great sacrament of unity be'­ tween God and the human race.

The oneness of God is so per­ fect that three Persons possess the very same nature, the very same being. As mankind attains deeper levels of unity, it be­ comes more God-like, grace re­ deeming nature from sin's flaws.

In the Collect we pray for one­ ness, too, as we ask for peace in our time.

MONDAY - SS. Fabian and Sebastian, Martyrs. But the one· ness that we seek is no superfi­ cial sameness. It lies in the depths of 'the Mystery of Christ, and is accomplished in Baptism and the -Eucharist. To seek this unity may be to set oneself at odds with those whose ideal of oneness is more modest. .

"Blessed are you when men hate you * * * for the Son of Man's sake," says Jesus in the Gospel. And the First Reading lists the horrors endured by apostles of unity at the hands of their fellows. So we ask for courage, despite our weakness, that our quest for unity, whether it be in civil rights '.or in eeu­ menism, may be undaunted by the enemy.

TUESDAY-St. Agnes, Virgin.

Martyr. The enemy is evil, and every man who has set himself in the paths of evil is against the unity of God's covenant promise (First Reading). But the enemy is also the foolish, the improvident, the imprudent (Gospel), who futilely seek the Christ without bothering B'bout

the means.

Lazily and casually they pro­ ceed in some sense toward the good. They do not take Him seriously. They are the weak ones, not those whom the world holds weak, as today's virgin­ martyr.

WEDNESDAY - SSe Vineent and Anastasius. Martyrs. To­ day's Mass, again of martyrs. again confronts the power of evil, division, dissension * • • confonts it soberly and without fright. It may be that victories for unity, for Christ, may be for now only "sparks that break out, now here, now there, among the stubble" (First Reading). But they are unconquerable. Their deliverance is coming, the same lesson teaches, and then they will shine out. The Gospel tells us as we pray for unity: "It is by endurance that you will secure possession of your souls."

with Father Albert Shovelton GIl WBSM's "Catholic Viewpoirrt'"' In general the B i·shop pointed to the great need of patience in to­ da y' s quickly moving world of religious events. Patience is needed in awaiting trans­ lations of litur­ gical texts. Pa­ tience charac­ terised the Fathers' treatme. of the last chapter-8 discussecb concerning the Jews and free­ dom of conscience. Patience ... needed by all the Fathers in the face of the complicated schedule of the Council.

The VCTD6CuIar Introduction of the vernacu.­ lar in the liturgy is a fact. BlIt there are many who because they will not understand the carefulness and complexity at translation impatiently complain that the Church is too slow.

Back in the 16th and 17th Centuries, there were some, who because of their own thought. or tastes, disregarded the text of the Bible and translated it "to make it appear that they were preaching what was the Bible.

But it wasn't. They introduced them (their thoughts) into the Bible. And, of course, all over the centuries a lot of those thinp were a source of bitter opposi.­ tion and even scandal," COlD­ mented the Bishop. It is a matter of history.

This cannot happen in the translation of texts of the liturgy no matter how well-intentioned some impatient translator wM be. Faithfulness to the Latin ... necessary; faithfulness to the doctrinal content of the litur~ must be protected at all costs.

Therefore, the American Hie!'­ archy - like all others of the world - has organized commi" tees of bishops and experts to do this. Their work is to "get to­ gether a translation into the ver­ nacular - into English - pre­ serving certainly, carefully, the doctrinal content of the liturgy so that nothing is used casually or carelessly and nothing. could create a wrong approach toward Almighty God." This takes tim~ patience.

Jews It was unfortunate that it WM toward the end of the sessiOD. that two statements were su• denly introduced in debate: that on the Catholic's attitude bward the Jews and that on freedOJll of conscience.

There was no time for real discussion and there grew a real fea· that other peoples would certainly be slighted.

The Church's 'llis~onary field is in Mohammedan countrie..

The treatment of the non-Chris­ tians mentioned only the Jews and not the Mohammendons, the Buddhists, the Arabs, etc.

Cardinal Bea pointed out that certainly the statements were not cast aside. "It was just a matter of set tin g in right la~ ;uage and the proper aspect our relationship with the Jewish people." This too takes time; patience.

Further Sessions It does not seem that the work of the, council can be resolved in but two months' work. "That

would be wishful thinking.­

Freedom must be preserved.

Justice Goldberg Praises Work Of Fr. Weigel

Xavier University here has

banned Mississippi Gov. Ross Barnett from addressing the

Father Gustave Weigel, S.J., "de­ servedly won the friendship and respect of all men of good will of every creed."

Justice Goldberg's expression was one of dozens of messages of condolence sent to Woodstock College, the Jesuit seminary where Father Weigel taught.

Calling Father Weigel a "dis­ tinguished wise man and theolo. gian," Justice Goldberg said: "He will be sorely missed."

Will Herberg, Jewish writer and commentator ~in interfaith matters, wrote that he was "utterly heartbroken" at the death. "He is an irreplaceable loss to .the Church and to so­ ciety," he said.

Inspiration for All Louis Webster Jones, president of the National Conference of.

Christians and Jews, said: "All of us have suffered the loss of a great and wonderful friend.

But the loss to the cause of reli­ gious liberty is the greatest."

Methodist Bishop John Wesley Lord of Washington wrote that the death "has diminished the entire Christian community."

Rev. George J. Bacopulos, chancellor of the Greek Ortho­ dox archdiocese of North and South America, said: "May his work for the unity of Christian­ ity be an inspiration for us

alL"

Asks Laity Continued from Page Six making their point of view known even though it might be a bore or even if someone else has said it three times already," there are difficulties. Here too - patience!

Protestants The contribution and interest ef non-Catholic observers was wonderful. There was some con­ cern felt because when Pope Pius IX had invited observers for Vatican I, he had been treated with scorn. However, with Pope John's fatherliness to our "separated brethren" and their own dialogue among them­ selves to find an angwer to Christ's prayer for unity, a bappy result occured.

"We in the Catholic Church have been happy to live behind a fence," the Bishop com­ mented, "I do not want to make an onslaught on Catholics. I would say that this applies to others too. • •• There are many fields in which we can be to­ gether that do not involve arguing or hackling or bringing up historical differences."

Fall River Diocesans One last word to the laity. '"The lay people could very well realise that they are the Church." There is a division between laity and clergy by or­ dination. But the clergy is part of the faithful too. All together we must make an intelligent ef­ fort to spread the Gospel. "Every Christian is an apostle - every Christian - mind you, 1 say "Christian" not necessarilly Catholic. But definitely speaking to my own people, yes, every Catholic should be an Apostle of the Word," concluded the Bish­ op.

Life in Fall River is pretty tame after such experiences, ad­ mits the witch doctor. That's right, witch doctor. After he'd exhibited his ability to soothe aches and pains with such wonder drugs as aspirin, the head man of Brother Raymond's village presented him with a witch doctor's cow's tail, North­ ern Rhodesian equivalent of an M.D. license. (Sheepskin here, cow's tail there, be it noted.)

Bosy Life B rot her practices medicine (and many other things) at St. John's Training College, Malole Mission, Northern Rhodesia. His community, the Brothers of the Sacred Heart, is primarily a teaching order, and the school fits graduates to become teachers in their turn. It includes a gram­ mar school and college and pre­ sent enrollment at 210 boarders and over 300 day students. Up to grade three, the school is co­ educational, but from then on

lay teachers. At present all the Brothers are on home leave, the others in Pawtucket and Bidde­ ford, Me., respectively. They'll be returning to Afric'a at the end of the month.

Their mission is 500 miles from the closest town, says Brother Raymond. "It's like going from here to Quebec to go shopping."

Medical aid is also distant, it being 31 miles to the nearest • doctor. As a result, Brother Ray­ mond's skills are in constant de­ mand, He sees 40 to 60 patients every afternoon, after putting in a morning teaching. Around the edges he fits in care of the Brothers' sacristy, farm and maintenance work and supervi­ sion of a herd of cows.

The current serious need of the mission, however, is funds to rebuild the elementary school, . burned in a recent political in­ cident. "We have no political trouble," the Brother hastened to emphasize. "The school was an incidental casualty in a local upheaval."

The building itself and all equipment was destroyed and only the mud walls are left standing. Even as it stood, the

Brother Raymond.

"There's 90 much work to be done, what we do accomplish doesn't show." The students, however, are rewarding to their teachers.

"They even ask for homework if it .isn't assigned," noted the missioner.

Recruiting Tour Brother Raymond joined' the Sacred Heart Brothers as a re­ sult of a recruiting tour. Now he's on such a tour himself, 8peaking at schools and parishes in an effort to interest boys in the life of a Brother.

While in the Diocese, his head­ quarters are at 81. Math\eu Rec­ tory in Fall River, where his mother, Mrs. Albina Thibault, is housekeeper and his sister, Sister st. Maurice of the Sisters of St. Joseph, teaches in the parochial school.

student body. Father Patrick H. Raterman, S.J., dean of men, said the governor's position on segregation is "basically im­ moral" and therefore an invita­ tion from a student leader to the governor had been disap­ proved.

Gov. Barnett was invited by Rudolph Hasl, student council president. Hasl and a group of other Xavier students were vis­ iting Tongaloo Christian College, an integrated school near Jack. son. Miss., during the Christmas holidays.

Commitment to Ideals Hasl said he asked Gov. Bar­ nett to speak on "state's rights or some related topic." He ex­ plained that "there is much di­ versity of thought on the subject and Gov. Barnett is recognized as embodying the view of a size. able section of the American public/' Father Ratterman, however, pointed out that "Xavier Uni­ versity is a university with a publicly stated commitment - a commitment to Christian ideas and Christian ideals."

"One of these ideals," he said, Hls the equality of all men and respect for the digni ty of all men.

This ideal is, of course, Ameri­ can as well as Christian. Gov. Barnett's· position on segrega­ tion contradicts these Christian and American ideals and is, we feel, basically iinmoral."

'Freedom of Place' Father Ratterman admitted that universities have a respon­ sibility to "provide a forum for the free expression of all ideas in a democracy." He added the university "must stand as a bas­ tion of freedom in a pluralistic society."

But "freedom of speech is not the precise problem in the pres­ ent circumstances." he said.

"What might be termed 'freedom of place' is actually the point at issue."

While Gov. Barnett has the right of free speech, Father Ratterman said, the Xavier ad­ ministration has the right to de· termine whether that Christian campus is a proper' place for the Governor to express his views.

Tiny Human Becomes Bip.ed As T.J. Learns to Walk

By Mary Tinley Daly Man walks upright. Of course he does. But, when a particular "man" is just a little bit of a man - say one year old- he is ready and willing to step out, yet somehow the legs stay weak and rubbery. Standing up in the playpen, hanging onto the edge, he is lord of all he surveys. In under the dining room table, the "ceiling" to reach for the penned-in position, he with in case of imminent failure. And makes valiant efforts to Pat would crawl to the kitchen

balance the entire weight of his 25 pounds on those unobeying fat legs. He .tarts to take off, to make his way to the other eide of the play­ p"en, but at the 18 st moment finds the voyage 0 0 hazardous and keeps hang­ ing to the rail, like an unsure ew.immer in the deep end of a pool. Out in the open living room-now that's another prop­ osition.

Balance Off

Enviously watching his elders move about at will, he stands by the couch contemplating the eoffee table, a scant six inches away, puts one footforward-:­ oops! Balance off, he gets down on all fours, crawls to> the table, pulls himself up. . .' '. Frustrated. again, he seem~ 10 be say~ng to ~imself, "Every­ body else ean do it, wl1at's the matter with T.le?"

Watching the performance, one wonders not why he can't do . it; rather, one inarvels that he has come so close to' the in­ tricate feat of balance and movement in this short span of 12 and one-half months.

At our house, it has been quite ~me time since we have been personally involved in a baby taking his first steps. As the other grandchildren walked for the first time, their parents men_ tioned it to us casually, if at all, or we just saw them toddling when they came to visit.

"Why, he (or she) is walking!" we'd say as Little Bits toddled over our way.

However, for the present, our Mary and her year-{)ld son, Tim .Gorman, Jr.-"T.J."-have been staying with us witile Tim Sen­ ior is on sea duty with the Navy.

Tiny Human Thus, for the first time in many years we have witnessed the ever-recurrinp miracle of a tiny human becoming a biped, rearing up on his hind legs and walking (or a reasonable fac­ • imile thereof).

In retrospect, we recalled 80me of the amusing transition­ al stages from quadruped to' bi­ ped many of our own had passed through before they struck out 8010, the "security crutches" they relied on. Johnny couldn't walk by himself unless he had a' clothespin clu~ched in his fat fist, almost like the umbrella­ for-balance of a tightrope walk­ ei' uses. .

'He's walking!" I screamed, unconcerned with the ball game, eyes fastened on T.J. tottering uncertainly from the sofa to his mother, clutching her knees and letting out a squeal of triumph.

'Now he can walk to meet hie :Daddy," Mary whispered, her eyes somewhat misty. "He's not a little baby any more."

By the time Tim returns, only a few more days, T.J. should be well on his· way for' there iI nothing he wants to do but walk, walk, .walk.

Mrs. Hottinger, mother of two, has been active in the Winona, Minn., Diocesan Council of Cath• olic Women as well as varioWi' civic groups.

NEW YORK (NC) - A -pub­ lishing executive calculated here that "moral myopia and apathy characterize the Christian view of atomic warfare, the gravest moral problem ever to confront mankind."

Philip Scharper told the aD* nual American Pax Association meeting here American Catho­ lics share a general sense 01 helplessness before the giantism. of modern life which includes the "big bomb," big business and big government.

Scharper, a sponsor of Pax, an association of Catholics and others dedicated to promote and encourage application of Chris­ tian aims toward the question of war, said the "immense" CatJ1.. olic apathy stems from two main sources.

Love Strongest Force One is nationalism, the other a "code moranty rather than a morality of commitment," SchaJl­ per said. He added that a pel\­ sonal commitment is concerned with growing in grace and ap­ proaching the highest ethical ideal which is Christian love.

"Love is the strongest force in human affairs," he said.

"Christian love can never be overcome by violence; it doea not succumb to violence Dar conform toO its demands."

12 Catholic Observers to Attend Protestant, Orthodox Meeting

OTTAWA (NC) - Gov. Gen. Georges Vanier of Canada, ift his New Year's me~M'1e to the Canadian' people, said the late Po-~ John XXIII "worked a miracle in the hearts of men."

Referring to the impetWl. toward "spiritual unity" given'

by Pope John, he said the Pope' "dispelled the habit into which we had faHen of c<>nsidering in ouI' dealings with one another' first our differences and then our points of agreement."

"He proclaimed that above, differences, a b '0 v e divisions, , above difficulties there is love."

Vanier said.

The Governor General stressed the need for unity between Canadians of Anglo-Saxon and, French descent and expressed the hope that they would be "an example of fraternal coexis·, tE!DCe."

WASHINGTON (NC)-Twelve Catholic observers will attend a meeting next month which will propose guidelines for U. S. Protestant and Eastern Orthodox churches to follow in Church;" State matters.

The sessions in Columbus; Ohio, from Feb. 4 to 7 could, have a heavy impact on issues such' as tax exemption for churches, military chaplains and Federal aid for education in private schools and colleges.

Sp-onsor of the national study, conference is the National Coun. cil of Churches, New York, which said it will seek "an an­ swer to the question whether organized religion and govern. ment should move closer togeth­ er ,or farther apart."

The need for such a confer­ ence by denominations affiliated with the national council was described as urgent by the Rev. Dean M. Kelley, executive di­ rector of the council's depart. ment of religious liberty, in a' statement issued in New York.

The conferepce will be held against the background of a re­ cent policy statement on Church.

State matters from the council which called ""or Federal aid to public 3chools and opposed any type of assistance to pl:!rochial and other private schools.

The 12 Catholics, appointed by the Natio:lal Catholic Welfare Conference here, are among the most widely recognized spokes­ men for Catholic viewpoints on Church.State matters in the country. They are six laymen and six priests.

The lay Catholic observers are:' William B. Ball, executive director, Pennsylvania Catholic Welfare Committee, Harrisburg; Wililiam Consedine, director, 1 ega I department, National Catholic Welfare Conference; Francis Gallagher, a Baltimore attorney; John Hayes, dean, Holy Name Society Loyola University Law School, ,Plan Aids Seminary Chicago; George Reed, assistant director NC'WC legal depart­ BOSTON (NC) - Thousands ment; a~d Charles Tobin, a New of motorists in the Boston area York attorney. had their 1964 license plates af­ The priests who are observers ' fixed to their 'cars in more than are: Father Robert F.

change within the Church. I am not arguing that we should not be anxious for change. But neither should we expect that everything is going to be easy or swift.

Two Extremes There are two extremes to be avoided. One is to say that since the Holy Spirit is at .work we 'need not worry. Of course, we need .not worry about the long run survival of the Church but this does not excuse us from maximum effort in the present cause. The Holy Spirit works with human cooperation. He was at work in 1516, but the human cooperation at that time left something to be desired.

The other extreme would be to forget about. the work of the Holy Spirit and despair every time there seems to be a setback.

Sen. Pell underscored the "most significant precedents" esfablished by Pope Paul in his "remarkable pilgrimage" - the first pope to travel .by airplane, and the first pope in 500 yean to meet with an' Orthodox pat­ riarch. . .'

"To· heads of state, to citiz'ens of every country, Pope Paul from the Holy Land addressed his message imploring the grace of true brotherhood among peoples," the Senator said.

It also asked for "respectful teaching of the Bible and/or literature as an integral part of the public school curriculum" and added that Christian teachers should be enabled to teach from a Christian standpoint. ' As anothe'." outgrowth of the association's reaction to the Supreme Court decision banning school prayer, the association said some circumstances "may require the establishment of Christian day schools to safe­ guard the American Christiaa heritage."

The association, composed of about two million conservative and fundamentalist Protestants with headquarters in nearby Wheaton, made no mention of, what version of the Bible should be used in public schools.

Sees Possibility Of -Communist Rule in· Chile HUNTINGTON ( N C ) ­ The world's only f r eel y elected communist govern­ ment may come to power this

....

year in Chile, a journalist and student of Latin American af­ :£airs warns.

Father Albert J. Nevins, M.M., writing in the Jan. 19 Our Sun­ day Visitor, national Catholic newspaper published here in Indiana, says there is "a real possibility" that it communist­ controlled coalition will win the Chilean elections scheduled for Sept. 4.

Father Nevins says that if the communist-socialist Popular Ac­ tion Front (FRAP) comes to power in Chile, it will embark on a program that includes a pro-Soviet foreign policy and e x pro p ria t ion of foreign boldings. The U.S.-owned Ana­ conda and Kennecott copper companies control 90 per cent of Chile's copper ....;ning.

1,500 Organizers In his discussion of FRAP prospects in the upcoming elec­ tions, he points out that in 1958 the coalition received 350,000 votes and missed winning the presidency by only 33,500. In 1961 congressional elections the caaliton total rose to more than 400,000, and in municipal elec­ tions last April the coalition polled 689,000 votes.

The FRAP presidential candi­ date is Salvador Allende, leader of the Socialist party. Father Nevins says Allende has "visited and heaped praise on the Soviet Union, Red China and Cuba."

Raul Cardinal Silva Henriquez has stated that the communists ihave 1,500 fulltime organizers !In Chile and are spending heavi­ ly for propaganda, and that the Chilean Communist party is second only to that of Cuba in Latin America.

Catholic Dissension Father Nevins says that if the Catholic parties in Chile could unite they would be able to repulse the threat from the left.

But because of dissension be­ tween Catholics of the right and the center, "no observers see this as a possibility," he says.

Describing the Church's re­ sponse to the crisis, he notes that lin the Fall of 1961 the Chilean Bishops announced that the 13,­ ZOO acres of land belonging to the Church would be divided and 80ld to rural families-with pay­ ment spread over 20 years. The program of land distribution is proceeding "steadily," he says.

Other Catholic programs have been developed to meet such problems as poor housing, low wages, unemployment, illiteracy . and malnutrition, he reports, and a Christian trade union move­ ment is being formed to recap­ ture control of labor from the communists.

Protestant Church Site of First Mass RASTATT (NC) - A West African priest who was sup­ ported through his seminary studies in Rome by 17 Rastatt families came here to Germany to offer his first Mass - in the local Protestant church.

Father Nicolas Okioh of Da­ homey celebrated the Holy Eucharist in the Protestant church at the invitation of the Protestant pastor. The Catholic church is undergoing repairs.

The sermon at the Mass was preached by the Catholic pastor, Father Herbert Schuett, who said the occasion was an indica­ tion of true Christian brother­ hood and of improved prospect. for Christian unity

Urges Active Role Dominican Father Sees Apostolic Task

For Nuns in Modern World

CHICAGO (NC) - Nuns have an active and apostolic role to play in meeting the problems of a c han gin g urban society, speakers at a Sisters' study day . on the "urban revolution" agreed here.

"Don't consider yourself sta­ tioned in a parish like a statue," Father Gilbert J. Graham, O.P., told the nuns.

Father Graham, pastor of St. Pius V church here, said nuns must come to grips with such issues as the crises in public welfare and public education, delinquency, pro1)lems of the aged and alcoholism.

"These are today's problems.

Those we deal with every day have these problems," he said.

Mrs. Madeline Bonsignore of Olympia Fields, Ill., a member of the local Catholic School Board and a former Christian F ami 1 y Movement president, urged teaching nuns to help par­ ents develop "children who can

Counsels Students Away From Home LISBON (NC) -Archbishop .:rose Vieira Alvernaz of Goa, Patriarch of the East Indies, told Goan students studying here that although they are separated from their homes they must never become separated from Christ. The Archbishop spoke to the students at a Mass he offered for them.

Goa, long a Portuguese enclave on the west cost of India, was seized by Indian troops and incorporated into the Republic of India two years ago.

Must Serve Community Mrs. Bonsignore noted that it is often said the lay apostle must first fulfill his personal respon­ sibility as a spouse and parent before be can serve the commu­ nity. She argued, however, that the layman who does not serve the community cannot be a good mother or father either.

If a woman gives all her time and attention to the home and neglects the world outside it, she said, "you are teaching your child that a scrubbed floor is more important than the right of the Negro to move into your community, that weekly-changed sheets * * * are more important than seeing that everyone votes."

Franciscan Heads Honduras Mission MOUNT VERNON (NC) - A priest who used the harmonica and guitar to advance his mis­ sion work has been named Prel_ at Nullius of the Olancho prov­ ince in Honduras.

Father Nicholas D'Antonio, O.F.M., 48, a native of Baltimore and a veteran of 18 years in Cen­ tral American missions, in his new office has the ordinary powers of a bishop, including a vote in the Second Vatican Council, according to the Fran­ ciscan Information Service here in New York.

In 1946, when he became pas­ tor of San Francisco de la Paz, an isolated, back country parish in Honduras, Father D'Antonio used the harmonica and guitar to attract people to his mission church. One of his outstanding achievements was building a parochial school in Comayaguela, Honduras, despite a "comic op_. era campaign of threats" carried on by an irate landowner, the Franciscan service said.

Oregon Member Wins Holy Name , Vercelli Medal NEW YORK (NC) - A 75-year-old man who has held "practically every of­ fice" in the Portland, Ore., archdiocesan Holy Name Union has been named winner of the 1964 Vercelli Medal.

Herbert Michelbrook of Port­ land will receive the medal, given annually by the national headquarters of the Holy Name Society to a layman who has made "a distinguished contribu­ tion" to the society.

Michelbrook's selection was announced here by the Holy Name Society's national head­ quarters.

A native of Sublimity, Ore., Michelbrook studied for the priesthood at Mount Angel (Ore.) Seminary but had to leave because of ill health.

During World War I he served with the Army medical corps.

As a student at Oregon State College, now Oregon State Uni­ versity, he was associated in the founding of a Newman Club with Father Francis P. Leipzig, now Bishop of Baker, Ore. Shipyard VVorker Following graduation he be­ came principal of Union High School in St. Paul. Ore. He con­ tinued his studies in education at Notre Dame University and Oregon State, and for a time also taught at Mount Angel College.

During World War II, although more than 50 years old, he served as a shipyard worker.

MichelbroGk has been a Holy Name Society member for more than 30 years. He has active in the St. Vincent de Paul Society and the Legion of Mary. He has bE'~- a high school teacher with the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine and in his home parish, St. Andrew's has been "anything from laborer to usher."

Michelbrook has helped carry on a radio Rosary broadcast con­ ducted by Portland Holy Name men for more than 13 years. In 1962 he was named Holy Name Man of the Year in the Portland archdiocese.

Six Denominations Plan Merger Talks NEW YORK (NC)-Six major Protestant denominations have taken a major step toward unity by agreeing to start conversa­ tions on three key obstacles to merger: the ministry, Baptism and Holy Communion.

The decision to open conver­ sations on ministerial ordination and the sacraments was' made at a meeting of the executive com­ mittee of the Consultation on Church Union, a formal organ­ ization that grew out of a ser­ mon preached three years ago in San Francisco by the Rev. Dr. Eugene Carson Blake, chief ad­ ministrative officer of the United Presbyterian Church.

The six. denominations in­ volved are the Methodist Church, the Protestant Episcopal Church,

the United Presbyterian Church, the United Church of Christ, the Disciples of Christ (Internation­ al Convention of Christian Churches) and the Evangelical United Brethren Church. Their combined membership is in ex­ cess of 20 million.

Heads Association WASHINGHTON (NC)-Ver­ non X. Miller, dean of the Cath­ olic University of America, was chosen president-elect of the Association of American Law Schools at its annual meeting in Los Angeles. He will take office in 1965. He is former dean of the Inw schools of Loyola Uni­ ~rsity, New Orleans, and the University o.f San Francisco.

Woman Ha.s School Plan To Cut Taxes, Crowding FLORISSANT (NC) - A pro­ posal to alleviate overcrowding in public schools and, at the Same time, effect savings of tax monies was advanced before the Ferguson-Florissant School Dis­ trict board.

Mrs. Carl Weischhaus, presi­ dent of the Florissant chapter of Citizens for Educational Free­ dom, which advocates "A Fair Share for Every Child," pro­ posed to the school board a tuition voucher plan that would "extend' to all students the state

aid portion of the money now being paid by all taxpayers for each public school student."

She advocated that the board study the plan and, if it be deemed sou n d , recommend changes in the present state school laws which would en­ able the plan's operation.

Mrs. Weischhaus supported the plan with statistics. She said figures based on the school dis­ trict costs would save district taxpayers, if the plan is adopted, some $676,000 for the 1964-65

school term, in addition to the $3,101,000 tax saving annually as a result of some 7,000 children attending independent schools in the district.

She said this does not include the $6,025,000 which would be necessary for classrooms if the 7,000 independent school stu­ dents transferred to public scpools.

The CEF official said if state aid were !xtended to all pupils, it would result in some 600 chil­ dren now attending public

Unity Desire Cannot Renounce Truth BONN (NC)-Hope that Vati­ can Council II will promote Christian reurufication still has a special place in German pub­ lic discussion in the wake of the closing of the second session of the Council.

In their New Year messages, therefore, German Bishops gave their opinions on mixed mar­ riages and. the ecumenical spirit.

Bishop ·Helmut Wittler of Os­ nabrueck acknowledged there are many mixed marriages with­ in the Lord's law and the Church's order. "However it is undeniable that mixed marriages are endangering Christian faith and religious life for parents and children," he said.

The Bishop added: "However, it is unmistakable that marriage

between activE" and inactive Catholics may be a still greater and also not a justifiable danger to faith."

He added that it will continue to be a duty to the faithful to observe the Catholic marriage ceremony and give their children a Catholic education.

"We hope," he said, "that other regulations of Church law not based on divine law will be re­ vised, renewed or improved."

Cites Dangers Joseph Cardinal Frings of CoIQgne said the ecumenical movement was given new im­ pulses by .the council but that there also are dangers. He pointed out that the Catholic Church cannot renounce truth.

Cincinnati Prelate Weighs Future Catholic Schools, Fed-era I Aid CINCINNATI (NC) - A 30­ year veteran in the Catholic ed;..

ucation field said here it is im­ possible to make an "accurate prediction" abo u t Catholic schools 50 years from now.

"But I'm sure we're going to have them, though there' may not be so many, their problemS' may be different and fewer people may be able to afford the cost," said Msgr. Carl J. Ryan, superintendent of Cincinnati archdiocesan schools for the last three decades.

What happens to Catholic ele­ mentary and high schools in the coming years, Msgr. Ryan told the St. Clare Parish Parent­ Teacher Association depends partly on whether any large acale Federal aid to education

program is enacted by Congress.

Co'llege Aid Bill "If the aid is limited to pub­ lic schools only, then our Cath­ olic schools will have a very hard time competing. But if Catholic schools are included and we do 'receive reasonable aid, then we'll be able not only to keep our Catholic schools, but to expand them almost indefi­ nitely," the priest-educator said.

Another factor that will affect the future of Catholic schools, he said, is the trend toward elim­ inating all signs of religion from public schools.

He raised the question wheth­

er Protestants will "try to do.

something to bring religion back

to the public schools or begin to

set up their own schQoIs."

It must in the future struggle for Catholic schools and must say that mixed marriage is "a misfortune to be avoided."

The Church, he said, will never renounce its demand that the children of mixed marriages be educated as Catholics.

Archbishop Hermann Schaeu­ fele of Freiburg warned the faithful not to overlook the dif­ ference between Christian de­ nominations as the ecumenical . spirit could not be the same as indifference.

Bishop Franz Hengsbach of Essen also warned against mis­ guided tolerance. He said unity and reunification could not be realized other than in truth.

"Catholics must make more clear what our Church is and try to find Christ among divided Christians," he said.

schools returning to independ­ ent schools.

She also estimated that some 300 children would einroll in independent schools rather than public schools at the beginning of the next school term, if the plan were in operation.

"We do not feel this is unreas­ onable to expect inasmuch as approximately 40 per cent of the children in the school district now are attending independent schools, with no financial incen­ tive," Mrs. Weischhaus told the board.

She said the present law which requires a child to attend a state-supported school to receive the benefits of his parents' edu­ cational taxes "is a denial of one of the fundamental freedoms at our country-freedom of choice."

'Pre.'lS· e-troversy

The grand jury's recommetl­ dation was made to the five California county supervisors.

Four of them are Catholics, a fact which has led to press con­ troversy over a conflict between the supervisors' religion and their civil posts.

However, three of the four Catholic supervisors qui c k 1 y denied that their religion inter­ feres with their county duties.

The fourth was not immediately available for comment.

The first supervisor, Kent Pursell, chairman of the group a" a Protestant, gave tenta­ tive approval, saying that in view of increasing public wel­ fare costs the proposal should get thorough consideration.

Bishop Asks Lay Ideas on Sermons FORT WAYNE (NC) - Bish­ op Leo Pursley of Fort Wayne­ South Bend has asked, lay peo­ ple to send suggestions for the series of sermons to be preached in the diocese's church during Lent.

"I believe," wrote the Bishop in his regular column in the Our Sunday Visitor, newspaper of the diocese, "that there is need of dialogue, of intercommuni­ cation, within the Church as well as between the Church and those who are not'members of its visi­ ble body.

"I believe that bishops and priests need to know more of what our people are thinking," he added. ''In almost any of our many good Catholic publications that you might pick at random, I have read remarkably clear and sound statements of Catholic tea'ching by lay people. Some of the best sermons I have seen in print come from this source."

Start Serm()n Series On RGcI(d Justice PROVIDENCE (NC)-A series of sermons yedicated to the' cause of interracial j,!-stice has been inaugurated in all Catholic parishes in the Providence dio­ cese and will continue through the Sundays in February.

distinctions by color." levelling of a lovely city, by the rending in, pieces of a superb sculpture.

But we are neither shocked,

nor appalled when a filthy and tenantless shanty falls down, or when a slum is cleared away, or

when a flimsy, indecent draw­ ing is torn to shreds.

We are moved and cleansed

when we look upon Hamlet's fate, or Othello's, or Oedipus'.

But not when the Dylan Thomas of this play drops down to death: and the reason is that the char­

acter is all.flaws and no strength

Leaving the theatre, one feels that one has witnessed a virtu­

Liberal Substitution Rule

By Jut KineaV)' The NCAA Rules Committee's action liberalizing the substitution rules to the extent that it did came as a pleasant surprise to most of the nation's coaches and, I would ven­ ture to add, all of the collegiate football officials. The new rule is notably similar to that chipped in with seven straight ander which Massachusetts foul conversions to ice the At­ schoolboy footban has suc­ tleboro contest.

Coyle's stock hinges to a great cessfully operated for a num­ ber of years. It is not quite accurate to describe the new regulation as a return to the platoon sYstem, since wholesale substitu­ tions may be made only when the clock is stopp ed. otherwise, each elub is re­ stricted to two mbstitutes, re­ gardless of the number of the down. This should provide the bench with' adequate opportunity to control the situ­ ation without providing the coach with a b sol ute carte blanche.

The necessity of eontinuing to drill players in both offensive and defensive phases of the game remains 'present and, as we mg­ gested 1 ast week, this is 1ft keeping with the Rules Commit­ tee's philosophy of the game.

Such awkward situations as pre­ vailed in '63 when eoaches were, at times, unable to get injured players out, or that memorable instance when Pennsylvania Wal forced to go with 10 men on de:' fense against Dartmouth wlll . happily be corrected.

From this vantage point, the new rule, whkh Is simple 7et flexible, should prove a broad enough base to lend some de­ gree of permanence to the peren- . nial substitution problem. The rulesmakers in the last decade have made remarkable strictes in stabilizing and elarifying the regulations under whieh the col. lege games is played - the sing. ular exception being the substi­ tion rule. 'Nuff eed.

Durfee-Ooyle Schoolboy basketball has a number 01 key contests coming up tomorrow night. The Bristol County leadership is at stake when archrivals Coyle and Dur­ fee elash on the Warriors' borne court. As of this writing, both are undefeated ill league play.

Whether Friday's clash stacks up as a battle of. the unbeaten rests particularly on the outcome of the Attleboro-Co}"re set to OIl Tuesday.

The Jewelers stayed with Dur­ fee right down to the wire last week before suecumbing to the Hilltoppers' foul shooting pro­ ficienC7 in a thrilling 55-50 con­ test. Coyle, meanwhile, was taking North Attleboro over the jumps by an 87-48 margin, a sur­ prisingly notable effort in view of the Rocketeers' startling 67­ 66 victory over Bishop Stang earlier in the week.

Onceagliin, as has been the case all year, the Durfee quintet will be giving away considerable height to the talented Warriors.

Good defense and foul line ae­ curacy have proved the Hill­ toppers' forte. Their bench, young and inexperienced in var­ sity competition, cannot be dis­ cOunted. Ted Dempsey coming on in relief 01 Bob Farias
