It's State Aid, or Close Schools

Transfer of Pupils PHILADELPHIA (NC) Enrollment in the Catholic schools of the Philadelphia archdiocese has dropped by

av.

GEORGE MORIN, MS.

7,600 in one year, Msgr. Edward T. Hughes, archdicesan super intendent of schools, has told a Penna. legislative committee. The sharp decline is cited as proof that non-pub'lic schools in Pennsylvania must begin re ceiving some sort of financial support from the state or close down completely. The latter result means dras tically higher public school costs and the need for sudden capital mveStment.

W.ill'

Msg,r. Hughes, testifying be fore the Pennsylvania, House Committee on Basic Education, which is considering several means of providing the state support, noted the most sweep ing proposal calls upon the state to create a speciaf authority to purchase seculaL" education of students in non-public schools. Msgr. Hughes said Catholic schools enrollment. in city o£ Philadelphia dropped 4,000 to a new total of 152,457-36 per cent of the total school enrollment in the city.. . The city drop, he said, will cost the city $2 million in oper

Over·B~rden Taxpayers ating expenses and more than $7 million capitol outlay for new facilities. Outside the city, 3,600-pupil decline brought the total Cath olic school registration to 113, 868. Father Paul Curran, assistant Catholic school superintendent, stressed that in the five-county archdiocese the drop cost public schools about $17 million-or about two-thirds of the project ed cost of state aid to non-public schools in the entire state. "This enrollment drop," he added, "represents less than three per cent of our total sl;u.daDJ

population" and could well con tinue in the future. "In the light of these factors, one need not be a dev:otee of non-public schools to believe that their dissolution would be undesirable." Msgr. Hughes told the legisla tors that it would cost the Phil adelphia public schools $85 mil lion annually to 'educate the 152,457 pupils in the city's facili ties and that almost 6,000 new teachers would have to be found.

during Lent concerning fast and 8'bstinence:

" . 0 ,. • Following the instruc tions of the Holy See, we de clare that the obligation both to fast and abstain from meat, an obligation observed under a more strict formality by our

fathers in the faith, still binds on Ash Wednesday and Good FridaY' 0."

"In - keeping with the letter' and spirit 'of Pope Paul's Con 'stitution 'Let us do Penance', we preserve ,for our diocese' the tradition of abstinence_ from meat on each of the Fridays of Lent, confident that no Cath?lic Christian will lightly hold hlm ' ,self excused from this peniten tial practice." · For all other weekdays of Lent, we strongly recommend

participation in daily Mass and

Communion, daily visits to

recitation of the 'Rosary in church or as a Family Devo·J.on

Draft Changes Mask Dangers

WASHINGTON (NC)-Officl

G1s of two of the nation's largest Catholic universities have at tacked the recent curtailment of graduate students draft defer ments. Father Paul C. Reiner, S.J., pr~sidentof St. Louis Uni versity, Bald the policy would "set the ClOuntry back many, many years. He said 40 per cent of his uni versity's graduate students--ex oept for the medical and dental mudents exempted by the order -would be drafted within a year. This, he said ,"will mean a drop in tuition income of be tween $500,000 and $1 million. . Georgetown University aca demic vice president Father Thomas R. Fitzgerald, S.J., said, the financial consequences of the new policy "could be catastro phic." . He said 15 per cent or 20 per eent of Georgetown"s 900 first year law and graduate students could be drafted. The figure eould 'go as high as 30 per 'cent, be added, This loss of tuition in eome, he said, will not be ooupled wi·th a. corresponding drop in operating expenses. The faculty for next year has already been hired, and cannot be cut. Both priests also noted a hid den danger in the new ruling: the loss of significant numbers of graduate students will damage the undergraduate programs be cause there will be fewer gradu ate assistants available to run laboratories, grade examinations and other wise aid professors.

Minn. Priests Back Bishop's War Stand ST. PAUL (NC)-The Priests' Senate of St. Paul and Minne apolis has commended Auxiliary Bishop James P. Shannon of the :Archdiocese for his public op position to the Vietnam war. The senate thanked Bishop Shannon for his atendance at meetings of Clergy and Lay men Concerned About Vietnam In Washington, D.C. The resolution referred to the Bishop's "standing with other religious leaders of this coun try ....... ... at Arlington cemetery and Washington, D.C., giving public witness to the demands of his conscience on a crucial lIIsue of our day-the war in Vietnam."

'Stretch Our Dollars' In view of the stringent finan cial situation. in parochial schools, Bishop Elwell conclud ed, it is necessary to arrive at a policy regarding lay teachers. "This policy, it seems to me, must seek to provide the bene filts of a Catholic education to the greatest number of pupils consonant with the proper levels of excellence. "W.e mllst attempt to stretch our dollars as far as they will go. We must continue to .follow . this policy of our predecessors namely, ask all concerned, Reli~ gious and lay people alike, to help us reach the maximum number of souls with the money available." Bishop Elwell's remarks were questioned at a meeting of Cleveland diocesan Cat hoI i'c school teachers with Bishop Clarence G. Issenmann announc ed he would appoint a commit . tee to study the salary question.

Suggests Church Revise Position On Money SAN JUAN (NC) - A Puerto Rican Jesuit bishop said in a newspaper article here that "one of the atti tudes which should be revised, in a possible pastoral synod of the Chu~ch in Puerto Rico, is our position on money." Bishop Antulio Parilla, S..J.. who is awaiting confirmation of the Holy See to move to Guate mala to direct social action there, wrote in El Piloto, Cath olic weekly: "The external conduct of in~ terest, moved by a conscious 01 unconscious imbalance of values on our part - bishops, priesU and Religious -:- could easily make the Church appear rich and oriented toward the rich.

"The crisis which we face on the domestic scene, while per haps less dramatic, may prove to be every bit as serious as the crisis which the British, for ex ample, faced in the early '40s at the height of World War II," he said.

NEWARK (NC)-Seven-, 'teen proposals for housing projects are i n variouli'l . . stages of development undel"

By JRt. Rev. Msgr John S.Kennedy When the story that Alan Palmer has to tell in Nap oleon in Russia (Simon and Schuster, 630 Fifth Ave., New York, N.Y. 10020. $7.50)' begins in May of 1812, Napoleon is at the height of his powers and achievements. He is 4:~ years old, emperor of France, . conqueror of most of Europe. would ljave to leave Moscow. When the story ends at the He had been there but five clo'se of the same year, Nap- weeks. lEmpire Totters

oleon's downfall, although still not a fact, is insured. The reason for this swift change of for tune was the ut ter.failure of his attempt to de feat Russia. The try and its re sult are the subject of Mr. Palmer's 'neatly ordered and dramatic book. Napoleon had. been at war

with Russia five years earlier,

had beaten, her 'armies, and thereafter had signed a treaty of alliance with Tsar Alexander. But the alliance proved harm

ful to Russia's trade, 'and cool

ness had set in. .

. This was more than Napoleon

~uld' tolerate. 'Russia must be invaded and brought low. The Russian armies were not ready for the conflict, hence the tsar had decided on a strictly defensive strategy. He would withdraw and withdraw. He could afford to, given the enormous reaches of Russia: . Hence the invasion went unre sisted. Troubl"s Begin But Napoleon began to have troubles right away. For one thing, thc!:,e· was. the weather. In a few months, the Winter snows would be the problem, but now it was the Summer heat and the torrential rains.

Soon the smart troops that· had crossed the Niemen- were a -be draggled lot. Besides, difficulties with sup plies ·developed.' The Russians adopted a scorched ear-th policy, destroying, as they fell back, all 'that might be of any help to the :invader. : He determined to push on to Moscow. Surely that would pre cipitate a battle, for Moscow, 'the holy city., had unique sym bolic importance for the Rus sians. He met hardly more than token l"f~sistance, enough to har ry him but not to deter him, much less turn him back. By September 15;' he had arrived before the gates of Moscow. There he waited impatiently fur a delegation of officials to ,come' ollt and surrender What he did not know was that the city had been evacuated and was virtu311y empty. No high ·official was left. It was a ghost ,city that Napoleon finally. entered, in disgruntlement. ' \Vinter Approaches Soon its was a burning city.

Careful arrangements had been made to set the city ablaze once

Napoleon was in it. He had taken up resid€ . Dce in the KI'em lin, in th~ tsar's own chambers. It was difficult to convince him that a conflagration of stunning proportions had begun. Finally he left for safer quar tel's outside the city. Before' the fire .subsided, four-fifths of , Mocow had' been destroyed . What was left, his troops sacked. Besides, the Winter was Com ing on. On Oct. 13, the first : snow fell. Still there was no word from the tsar. The emper or addressed him by, special mq.,,"~n,~ers. urging a parley. They were ignored. Napoleon

As the ~mperial. armies, or what was left of them moved 'west, 'there were skirmishes which approached battIe pro PQrtions. Napoleon's force's gav,~ a good account of themselve!:, but to no purpose.The emperor complained, "I beat the Rus sians every time and never reach an end." His stature was shrinking, his empire totterIng. There were many terrors to be borne by the retreating armies. One was hunger, an·· oth~r was c;lisease. Russian guer·· rillas took a fierce toll. . But worst of all was the rigo:~ of' the Winter, now at full blast. It is impossible to sympathizt~ with Napeoleon's design, and impossibl~, too, not' to sympa.. thize ~ith hi~ men who suffered and perishedifl the' snow . and ice and bitter gales of the Rus·· !lian Winter. ' Tremendeus Losses .. He had lost almost half ;1 million men, 150,000 horses, tem: of thousands of guns. The sur·· viors of the retreat numbered ;1 pathetic 20,000.' Europe had be·· gun turn against him. Nevertheless he plan-ned an·· other campaign for the Sprin~: of 1813, taking off from Ger·· many. There was some initial. success. "A man such as I care!! little' for the life of a million men,'" he declared. By. the end of 1813, he was back in France. and soon would have to fight t~ prevent trespass on French soil, Rise of Russia

By March, 1814, 'rsar Alex

ander was in Paris, a year and

a half after Napoleon had left Moscow. In April, the emperor abdicated, and the' end of that month saw him on. h'is way to Elba. He was to return like' a lightning, flash in 1815, 'rally his' forces, and for 100 days 're vive his threat to Europe. But then came .Waterloo and his rel egation to St. Helena; where he' died six years later. This sketch gives no idea of the fullness .of Mr. Palmer's . book. His. account of the lead ing Russian' personalities, for example, is very good 'and he b{ings cut clearly th~ signifi cance of Napeoleon's course and its failure: for the first time, the power of Russia moved into Eumpe. ,He also points out par allels with the Nazi invasion of Russia in 1941 and its conse quence~1 for Europe' and the world.

Experts Stress ,Urgent Need

for Urb@[[Q Problem Solution$

NOTRE DAME (NC)-Efforts ~ far undertaken to meet the l'oousing, crime 'and governmen bll crisis of the nation's cities llilave shown little success, and the need for workable solutions b becoming more urgent, four experts in urban affairs said at G symposium on "Contemporary Ut"ban Problems of America" cponsored by the College of Business Administration of Notre Dame University "Urban goals, policies and programs-no matter how de airable and urgent-will not be realized unless we can develop better political and administra ~ive capabilities," said Prof. Donald C. Stone of the Univer aity of Pittsburgh. Stone's major recommenda aon was a metropolitan ap proach to such problems as pol mtion and transportation. But he !llOted that this will not be pos IJible in most states until their 'ronstitutions al'e changed to Jl)ermit home-rule by individual .eommunities. NatiOlnllln lPoUcy Philip Klutznick, a Ghicago businessman who has years of experience in urban housing. warned that unless a strong na-: tional policy is developed and implemented in the field of bOusing' America "will be he';ld": ~ for a type of apartheid.":" . The policy, he indicated, Ilbould include open housing l!aws, better opportunities by DOn-whites to improve their earnings, and massively funde~ public housing, rent supplements lImd. low interest rates.

Prof. Lloyd E. Ohlin of the Harvard Law School looked cautiously at the nation's rap idly rising crime rates. Many (actors, such as improved re porting procedures, he said serve to' limit the usefulness of these recent statistics. "No one can prove on the basis of available information that people today have a greater propensity to commit crime than they did for merly." he said.Open Opportullinties

"Feal' of crime is so often as sociated '-·with fear of Negro violence and competition that it is impossible to tell where one leaves off and the other begins," he noted. He added that the ur ban poor have always been over-represented in criminal cases, whether they are German, Irish. Italians or Negroes. "In the long run, th'e only hope for curtailing the various forms of individual and collec tive violence 0 0 ... is to develop a system of open opportunities which will give each citizen a chance to stake out a claim to a successful, satisfying and law abiding life." he said. Dr. Philip Hauser of the Uni versity of Chicago warned against comparing Negroes' dif ficultieswith those encountered by earlier ethnic groups which arrived poor and uneducated in the nation's cities. In contrast to the Negro, he' said, they came into the cities without the handicap of color and at a, time when there was an employment market for the uneducated and unskilled.

Cardinal Cody Annou~ces' Bus;ing Program for Catholic Schoc~s CHICAGO (NC) - John Car dinal Cody of Chicago an Illounced the archdiocesan school board is preparing' a school \'t»using program for Catholic lJcllools similar to, and in sup;. port of, the busing plan' p~ posed by James F. Redmond', Chicago public school superin:' oondent. ' The plan calls for busing Negro students from over:.. 0rowded innercity schools to J!egs crowded suburban schools m white neighborhoods. At a press briefing called by the Chicago ConferenCe on Reli !Jlon and Race, the controversial Redmond plan was given com plete support and endorsement by Cardinal Cody; Episcopalian Bishop James W. Montgomery; Dr. Edgar H. S. Chandler, ex ecutive director of the Church Federation of Greater ChicagQ; Rabbie Robert J. Marx of the Chicago Board of Rabbis; and George Jones, chairman-elect of the Chicago Conference on Re ThIgion and Race. Interest cfl All The conference is 8ft inter

The cardinal, in announcing

plans for an archdiocesan school busing program, said: "I am happy to concur in this statement of the Chicago Con ference on Religion and Race. "Yam convinced it is truly in the Interest of all our children 'in the metropolitan area. "Our own archdioce!\an school board all'eady has had a meeting and adopted the plan for the implementation oli this program. Detalls are being worked out by AuxHiary Bishop William E. McManus superintendent of archdiocesan schools, his staff, and the archdioces&n school board. "We call upon you, all of our own people, to understand the democratic basis upon which such a civic endeavor, is pro jected. We are all children of a common Father, one omnipotent Creator. All men have equal rights; all children must be given the highest quality educa tion in the best way our nation and (eligious institutions can provide it. . "Let us work together to this end," Cardinal Cpdy said!.

And What This Lent? .\ Years ago, the coming of Lent was ~ignalled by the to give up candy and movies a::ld desserts. Then p.eople began to see that other things were needed-the positive living of the Christian life, and rew lutions were added to be kinder to family and friends, to participate more often in daily Mass, to renew the fervor of prayers. And then. people gained a greater degree of eommunity-consciousness and further. resolutions were taken to give to' the poor of the world, to be more aware of the underprivileged, to further the cause of racial equl~l ity.

~making of resolutions

Another Lent is upon us. And what resolutions are

to be taken now? Since man is a' creature of not only mind and will but of feelings and emo~ions and the strong pull of the senses, discipline of the senses is needed, the mak ing of small individual and daily .sacrifices· is a must to bring the whole man under the control of the Christian man.

But Christianity is also a life to be lived, and theJt"€ should be a renewal of Christian goals and purposes (In · an individual and' a community level. Daily Mass, frequent and fervent prayer, the 'advancement of the cause of truth and justice among all men, Christ-like, actions toward all men-these are part and parcel of the Christian life arId · must be renewed efforts for Lent. During Lent the whole Church renews its, sense' of mission-that Christ be formed in the lives .of individuals and influence the whole environment in which people live.. ~ Each must make the' effort. . .

Although independent forma of the lay apostolate are multi- plying and offer many "v~ fine and generous results," thQ Pope said, they nevertheless ~ not take the, place of those law. organizations which have 0 dose relation with the hie»oo archy of the Church. · Speaking of the non-relatecll 'lay movement, Pope Paul saicll that "if the spirit of criticism oil brothers and pastors of 1Jbo Church community does not iso- late or deform or render useless these groups, they too can help the Catholic cause. With thkl trust and with this hope we t~ give them our affectionate un- derstanding and OUT blessing." Neverthelells, the Pope coD tinued, the degree of authenticity and efficiency within the lay apostolate is measured by ire relation to the hierarchy. "This hierarchy has the' pn.. mary and supreme responsibility ·for the apostolate, the primary and' supreme pastoral function,; which constitutes a brotlter a£ the guide, teacher and distribu tor of divine myst'eri'es to tlMt other brothers."

Parents in Minn. Expres;s School Voace Desire ST. PAUL (NC)-Parents' desire "for a voice in the operation" . of Catholic high schools is a· "key to many problems," according to a study \ conducted here in the St. Paul and Minneapolis Archdiocese. The survey results of the Edu cational Research and Develop ment Council of the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area, Inc., pub lished in a 42-page booklet en titled, "Factors Influencing Catholic High School Enroll ment," are based ·on 477 replies to 891 questionnnaires mailed to parents of high scho\>l stu dents in 15 parishes. Eighty-six per cent Of the re spondents said· parentS. should have a voice in the operation of Catholic schools. Average Student Concern Other findings show: "Catholics, generally, want Catholic high schools to be very similar to public high schools in many respects: teacher certifi cation. requirements, course of ferings in home economics, bus . iness education or industrial arts, supervision of teachers by the principal or department hea·d, an interschool sports pro gram and classes as small as possible." "Notwithstanding the national . tendency of· the Catholic high schools to be selective, parents in the Twin Cities do not be lieve that the high schools should' be primarily concerned with college-bound students." "Only two-thirds of the pa trons of Catholic high schools expressed belief in diocesan support of tpose schools." Primary Interest "Almost three-quarters of the patrons' of Catholic high schools believe in supporting the public schools." A "pr{me factor in the deci sion of Catholic parents to util ize the public high schools is' that of co-education." "It would appear that patrons of the public high schools. are primarily concerned with edu cation witli only 17.5 per cent being concerned with religion.· ,What is also of iriterest is' the , 'fact that only 43.7 per cent of Catholic patrons would put reli gion ahead' of the comprehen \~: ''sive program." . Pluralistic View "While over 90 per cent or'the Catholic patrons felt that the Catholic high schools are up-to date in how they teach children, only 66 per cent of the public (school)' patrons feel they were. While a majority of both pa t1'O n 5 feel that the religious training presently gi ven in Catholic high schools is up-to date with modern interpreta tions of Catholic doctrine it is interesting l' hat signifi'cantly' fewer of' the public patrons think so * * * lt must be ()b served that only 64 per cent of public patrons answered this question, however, while 93 per cent of the Catholic patrons were able to respond. "The majority of patrons of both systems feel that children should be exposed to all ki~ds of people with different reli gious and other beliefs although a significantly greater number of the public school patrons hold this view."

ATLANTA (NC) - The Archdioces'an Sen a, t e «> f " Priests here approved a pro posal calling for establish ment of the permanent diacon ate to serve in mission acreas of north Georgia. Reports of the proposal will be given to Archbishop Paul J. Hallinan, who said last July he hoped the National Conference of Catholic Bishops would ap prove the permanent dioconate, and to Bishop Ernest L. Unter koefler of Charleston, S: C" who heads a committee studying the diaconate. "North Georgia does not have enough priests to serve the a,rea and some other source of Catho lic leadership must be tapped," said Father Frank Ruff, a Glen mary priest who serves in- Cleve land, Ga., and is a member of the senate. Lacks Leadership Father Ruff said most of the al'ea is chara'cterized by low ed ucational and economic levels. The area "wants to grow, but it lacks the internal crea~ive leadership to solve its religious, cuMlUral and economic prob lems," he said. Father Ruff said deacons could unite and lead the Cath olic community in all activities except Mass and confession. "They could provide the insti tutional presence of the Catholic Church for ecumenical reasons and help develop a laity, Cath olic and Protestant, that is aware of itself. They could bring the religious dimension to the cultural and economic growth so greatly desired by the com munity," he said. Two Types He said a deacon should have above average leadership, moral and personal characteristics and would need training in Scripture, Church history, Church law, psychology and counseling, and Protest~nt history and theology. "The archdiocese would 'pay for his education with provision for repayment if he left the diaconate within five years," Father Ruff said. ' A deacon would need to live in the rural area fOl' two or three months to become ori ented to rural living before be ginning his education, he said. In the earlier proposal on the diaconate, Archbishop Hallinan said there should be two types of permanent deacons-unmar ried men from 25 to 35, and mature men over 35 who may be married.

Another student, a white from Tennessee who is a senior in history, commented: "I'm get ting a more balanced view of many things in this com'se -more balanced than most of the things I've heard in the city of Detroit which have been more racist than anything I heard in the South."

LANSING (NC)-The Lansing diocesan board of education ap proved teacher salary increases ranging from $700 to more than $1,000, but some board members said rising costs have pl'oduced a Catholic educational crisis in the 15-county Michigan diocese, "I think this is a crisis peri od," said Dr, Charles R. Donnel ly, a board member who is president of Flint Community Junior College. "We have to go out and tell the people what lhe situation is. We have to decide what we are going to do." "Can we keep all these schools?" Dr. Donnelly asked. "No matter what scale (of teach el's' pay) we approve, there are are going to be repercussions." The 86 schools in the diocese now employ more lay than Re ligious teachers, with a corre sponding increase in costs. There are 681 lay teachers to 558 Religious. In an effort to retain thc lay teachers - and to attract still more - the board has now adopted an accelerated 1968-69 salary schedule. Basic starting salary for a lay teacher with a B.A. degree will be $6,000 next year, compared to $5,300 this year and $5,000 last year. Next year's salary for a lay teacher with a B.A. degree and fi ve year's experience will be $7,200 compared to' $6,200 this year and $5,750 last-,a two-year increase of $1,450.

Students Protest Tuition Incr®ase WASHINGTON (NC) A group of students rallied on the campus of Georgetown Univer sity here in protest against tu ition raises scheduled to go into effecl in the next academ:c term. A spokesman for the students said the dissatisfaction ccntered not so much on the increllses themselves as on the "unsub stantiated, undocumented" an nouncement of them which ap peared recently on various cam pus bullp-tin boards. Falher Thomas R, Fitzgerald, S.J., academic vice-president, told a del~gation of the students after the rally he agreed to meet with a joint student committee and explain the increases. A university spokesman said the increases were dictated.by l!l "constant, inflationary spiral of opemtiflg expenses that have been with, us for the past two 01' three years." It was estimated that the num ber of students participating in the rally was less than 100.

Reforms Necessary

I Vietnam Victims Get CRS Aid I

DAVENPORT (NO) Bishop Gerald O'Keefe of Davenparl has urged Gath olioo of. Southeastern Iowa "to become more active In ef forts to rid our diocese of racism and poverty." The Mid-West See Ordinary, In a pastoral letter, warned against calling for repressive measures in the face of urban violence and urged a change of heart in the Christian observ ance of God's laws of justice and love for all men. The Davenport Bishop has en couraged Catholics "to work for local fair housing laws, to seek the legislation and policies nec essary to end the poverty of the dispossessed and alienated hard core poor in our diocese and state." Prolong~ Depriva.tion Bishop O'Keefe suggested the use of the vote in electing men and women sensitive to the problems of race and poverty, and the use of Catholic schools and religious-education classes to teach the truth "about the equality and innate dignity of all men." The Bishop designated Feb. 18 as Interracial Justice Sunday throughout the diocese and rec ommended "that p a ri she s , schools and other institutions of the diocese make some special observance of this event." Recent instances of violence cannot be condoned, Bishop O'Keefe said in the pastoral "but neither can we condone the violence that is being done to human beings 24 hours a day by racial prejudice'and discrimina-. tion and by prolonged economic deprivation. We must be inter ested in removing both kinds of violence." Lenten Penance The rural aspect of the Daven port diocese does not exempt Southeastern Iowa Catholics from the responsibility of doing something to make social justice a reality, the Bishop stressed. "Most of the children who grow up in rural families will eventually move to the city. Therefore, it is necessary that parents equip their children. with enllghtened Christian attitudes toward race and povert;y." In the coming Lenten season, "one of the best forms of pen ance we can do is to work for social justice," he said. .

In reexamining their own rel evance to the Church and mod ern society in this age of re newal during the meeting, ·a spo~esman explained, the Sul pician priests looked for new ways to deepen their personal commitment to the- mission of Christ through service to bish ops and priests. Ready to Move "They probed for better means of strengthening the diocesan character of their community while developing further the col

legial character traditionally found in Sulpician seminaries and given a new thrust by the directives of Vatican II," the spokesman said. "The conference was aware that an entirely new pattern of seminary education and for mation may spring out of today's . experiments and probing. The seminary priests plan to be ready to move in whatever di rections the Church may choose to take in this mission of educa tion,h he added. Father Purta defined the vo cation of the Sulpician as" a will to share' in the bishop's concern for the care of his clergy. at any point in his ecclesiastical career."

After an unsteady beginning, Coach O'Brien managed to guide his club on to the winnrng track at about the half-way point in the season. season. It was this late rush, as Dur fee was fading that swept the North Dartmou'th Spartans into the league-leading' deadlock in the BeL.

O'Brien and Ncbreg@ R@fre Woli'fm ~est Stang High's success can be attributed, in great measure, to the keen game insight and tutorial efforts of Coach O'Brien who produced a host of winniIlg combinations, first at Magr. Coyle High ill Taunton and later at the Greater New Bedford di ocesan secondary institution. O'Brien-a Somerset resident ..,... rounded out the competent Stang outfit with a nucleus of Greater Fall River boys-Kevin Phelan of Fall River and JiIn Mahoney and Tom Ryan, both ,of Somerset. Anyone of this high scoring, canny-eyed trio would have been. a welcome ad l1ition 'to either Durfee or 'Som erset high clubs. Nobody realizes the task con fronting stang in the tourney any better than Coach O'Brien whose 11-5 team clashes with the 15-3 host school ill the very first round. Law.rence's 'banner sea son effort makes it obvious that it knows its own court very well and it hopes to capitalize on this advantage against the North Dartmouth Spartans.

Bill Walsh, with a season's scoring average of 22.4 points per game, and Dale Chevalier, a most dependable back court man, are the only veterans on Coach Jack Nobrega's Holy Family team which hopes to re peat its divisional championship of last February. Walsh-as any area schoolboy hoop follower knows-can score equally as well from the top of the key as from under the hoop. And, his brilliance in hook s h 0 0 tin g and fading-away throws have been the cawie of woes to many defenders during the pr~sent campaign. Chevalier has provided Nobrega With 'that steady, dependable field' geJi eral who can be counted upon to arise to a tense situation. The little New Bedford Paro chial school rounded out a Hi-2 record. The sole Narry loss came at tb.e hands of Case in the wrap-up tilt. The other set back was administered by BCL Bishop Feehan High of Attle boro.

And while these two Catholic school clubs are engaged ill the Lawrence competition, two other Greater New Bedford dubs will be putting the finish Ing touches to their preparation for the up-coming Tech tourna ment. New Bedford High, display ing the ability of old, swept to

for the Class C croWn at the Tech elimination tourney. While Tom Baroa justifiably has been gaining the headlines during the New Bedford season, it should be noted that Coach Roger Lemenager has establish ed a top-flight record in,his four years at the helm of the Whal illg City hoop activities. After a 6-10 first season mark,' Lemen ager turned that record around for a 10-6 record in his second eampaign and then followed with 15-1 co-championship with Somerville last Winter. Lemen ager's 15-1 showing which copped the league 'crown' this season leaves very little - an undefeated record - for im provement.

A 21-year old track star at Northeastern University, John Wojcik is a man of many talents. Wojcik, a former Fairhaven High track star, has developed a habit of piling up points, whether on the cinders or in the class room. D~an's Lilst Stuiilent John is in his fourth year of a five year COUl'Se at Northeast ern and has been a Dean's List student since he entered college, after compiling a brilliant ath letic and' academic record at Fairhaven High! The oldest son of Mr. and Mrs. John A. Wojcik of 47 Wilding Street, Fairhaven, he is a mem ber of St. Mary's Parish in North Fairhaven. Big things are expected of Wojcik by coach Irwin Cohen of Northeastern, who noted that the 5-8, 130-pound distance run ner has turned in some excel lent performances to date and still has a season and a half re maining b his college track ca reer. RecOJrd Holder, John has turned in outstand ing efforts in the two mile run and helped the Huskies win four of their initial six meets, bowing only to eastern powers Harvard and St. John's. Wojcik is the holder of the Northeastern 3,000 steeplechase record. John is enrolled in the busi ness administration college at the university and is majoring in accounti~g. Under Northeast ern's co-op program, Wojcik is required to atten.,d classes half a ·year and work the other half, gaining on-the-job-training at a company chosen by the college. Wojcik is presently working in the accounts payable depart ment at Northeastern and will not return to formal classroom activity for another month.
