Church Revives Tradition With . Mass' Facing People The Mass as offered at an altar facing the people is Church nor is it a simple device ~ let the people in on new changes. The impression can be ..roneously had that this "new~' way of doing things is only a means to acquaint the people with changes and times that made its use "unus­ • soon as they know these ual".

With St. Pius X, the Eucharist Ihanges, we can go back to was clearly and emphatically

BOt somethiIig new for the

Ihe "old" way.

For nearly 1,000 years the al­

tar stood away from the wall in Catholic churches so that Mass said fl!-cing the congrega­ Clon. However, with the empha­ lis placed on devotion to the llelies of saints and the transfor­ aation of the altar into a shrine, lite altar was quickly placed· *Sainst the wall.

Later, with a regal emphasis _ the devotion to the Blessed 8acrament, the altar was trans­ formed into a kind of throne.

Wrue, Mass was always said there bat what popular devotion .ressed was the Eucharist as a eeerament, the divine presence.

Historical oppositions probabl7 aecessitated this but the empha­ ~ on such an observance took lIWay from the fact that the Bucharist is both sacrifice and .crament.

However, the practice of oUer­ Ibg Mass at a free-standing altar 41id not disappear. Mass was llSUally offered in this way in the Roman basilicas where the papal altars are so constructed that normally Mass is offered -racing the people".

Furthermore, the Roman Mis­ • always contained the rubrics to be used for such an occasion.

8uch as Mass was then normal ... it was the emphasis of the ~as

taugM as a sacrament-sacrifice.

Mass was not only a solemn prayer offered in the name of all. It was a sacramental-sacrifi­ cial meal in which all were nor­ mally to participate.

This saintly Pope's emphasis on Holy Communion spread throughout the world. Various schemes were tried to bring the Mass "to the people". All kinds' of architecture were formed to place the altar near or even in the middle of the people.

To promote participation, pas­ tors erected small supplementary altars near the altar rail so as to break with the needless dis­ tance between priest and people especially in churches with monastic stalls. In 1930 it was realized that the offering of Mass facing the people Wall not a papal privilege but a normal, approved mannel of offering the sacrifice.

Chartres began by regularly offering Mass in this way. Car­ dinal Verdier normally offered Mass in this way at Notre-Dame of Paris. Quickly the practice spread throughout France and Belgium. In Italy Mass had al­ ways been offered in this way in the Church's histl?rical basil­ icas.

Proposes Pontiff Mediate Conflict

Loyola Professor's Article 'Outrageously ,Superficial'

SAN JUAN (NC)-The leader of the Catholic-oriented Christ­ ian Action party here in Puerto Rico has proposed that Pope Paul VI be asked to mediate the COD­ flict in Vietnam.

CAP chairman Jose L. FeU. Pesquera advanced the propo­ sal in petitions addressed to U.s.

President Lyndon B. Johnson, Soviet Premier Alexei Kosygbl and the chiefs of state of North and South Vietnam.

By Msgr. George G. Higgins What is it about certain pacifists that makes them so absolutely, so unqualifiedly, and so patronizingly sure of themselves and so infuriatingly holier-than-thou? This is the question I keep asking myself, regretfully, after care­ fully reading and rereading the slightest fear of contr;ldic­ Dr. Gordon Zahn's sarcastic, tion-that the American bishops, not to say smart-alecky art­ with few exceptions, have never icle, "Davy Crockett and the even seen the so-caled "secret" Bishop," in the March issue of Ramparts. Dr. Zahn, who is pro­ fessor of sociol­ ogy at Loyola University, Chi­ cago, and the author of sev­

eral worthwhile books, charges, in brief, that some American bishops may be trying to block condemnation of the use of atom­ ic weapons by Vatican Council II when it re­

convenes in Rome this Fall.

Target of the U. S. Bishops' at-' tack, Professor Zahn wr~tes, is Schema 13, introduced at the last session of the Council. Schema 13, he says, would align the

Catholic Church against the use of nuclear weapons "whose ef­ fects cannot be imagined."

Bishop Dissents A dissent by Auxiliary Bishop Philip M. Hannan of Washington, D.C., Professor Zahn declares, provided the cluf'" to what is tak­ , ing place behind the scenes.

In a sharp attack on Bishop Hannan and the "innocent look­ ing loophole" argued for in a "confidential" memorandum submitted to the Council by a

number of American lay experts, Dr. Zllhn predicts· "We may noW

look forward to a concentrated effort to introduce a battery of modifications. distinctions and exclusions which will effectively negate even the modest inten­ tions of the Schema's framers and, in the process, slam shut the doors that were opened by John XXIII in Pacem in Terris."

Arrogant, Irresponsible Dr. Zahn is perfectly free to disagree with Bishop Hannan's position on the morality of cer­ tain types of nuclear warfare, but, frankly, he is being insuf­ ferably arrogant and woefully irresponsible when hE! slyly in­ sinuates that the Bishop's inter­ vention of Schema 13 is part of a concentrated and "secret" ef­ fort on the part of the American hierarchy to impose their al­ legedly militaristic views on the Council.

He is also being very naive when he suggests that"American

Catholics who would repudiate this nation's shameful record with respect to the' development and use of nuclear weapons must ' look ' to European and African bishops to state the case for them."

These and a number of other equally carel~s statements ­ generously spiced with sarcastic remarks about the American Bishop9-reveal that Dr, Zahn has neglected to do his home­ work.

Indeed his article as a whole Is so poorly researched and gos­ sipy in tone that the professor would have been compelled, I should think, to reject it out of hand if it had been submitted as a term paper by one of his undergraduate students at Loy­ ola.

Dr. Zahn says in his outra­ geously superficial article that he recently paid a visit to Rome.

Well and good, but he obviously .ftdn't stay long enough and/or didn"'t talk to the right people.

The plain fact of the matter I&-and this I can Ia7 witbout

memorandum referred to above and are certainly not carrying on a concentrated effort, either singly or collectively, to block condemnation of nuclear weap­ ons by the council.

Real Quandry The record will also show that European and African bishops are in just as much of a quandry as are the American bishops as to how to word the final version of the section of Schema 13 which deals with the morality of nuclear warfare.

My guess is that they will al­ most unanimously refuse to ac­ cept Dr. Zahn's apodictic view that all forms of nuclear weap­ ons must be unqualifiedly con­ demned.

Humphrey Notes Pontiff's Legacy To World

Says Mis·sioners.

'Rethinking' Role

NEW YORK (NC)-Vice­ President Hubert H. Hum­ phrey, said here that Pope John XXIII left the world "a public philosophy for a nuclear age" in his peace encyclical Pa­ cem in Terris.

Humphrey urged that world leaders come to understand­ as Pope- John understood-that "war today can assure the death of a nation, the decimation of a eontinent."

Under such conditions, he de­ elared, "mankind must concen­ trate on the problems that unite us rather than on those which divide us."

Humphrey spoke to an audi­ ence of 2,000 in the United Na­ tions General Assembly hall at a ceremony marking the start of an international convocation on Pacem in Terris.

The Vice-President touched on three major problems: nuclear proliferation, . aid to underde­ veloped countries and the cI)leed for building "a world community through the United Nations."

Test Ban Treaty Citing the U.S.-Soviet limited nuclear test ban treaty of Octo­ ber, 1963, and other steps since then toward easing tensions be­ tween the Americans and the Russians, he called for further step to prevent "war by discail­ Cl,dation or accident."

In this connection he noted that the Red Chinese nuclear test last year and suggested that "the next major step in controlling the nuclear arms race may re­ quire us to look beyond the nar­ row U.S.-Soviet competition of the' past." He also urged Asian, Latin American and Middle Eastern countries tG take the lead in renouncing nuclear wea­ pons.

Humphrey called the "shock­ ing inequality" between rich na­ tions and poor a "threat to peace." He said rich nations must aid the poor not only out of "compassion" but out of "self-' interest as well."

Television System To Serve Schools. ~

DETROIT (NC) - A private instructional television system to serve parochial schools in the Detroit archdiocese will be in­ augurated next Fall.

The new TV network will op­ erate over airways set aside by the Federal Communications Commission for school use.

Msgr. Vincent Horkan, archdi­ ocesan superintendent of schools, said the programs will be beamed from studios at Jesuit­ operated University of Detroit to about 280 schools.

Radio-TV Apostolate Conclave in Capital

EVANSVILLE (NC) - Mis­ sionaries in Japan are presently "rethinking their approach to. the Japanese people," a Japan­ ese priest who is a convert from Buddhism said here in Illinois.

Father John Kasuya, pastor of a parish in a section of Tokyo called "Ant-Town," said that the Eastern mind has difficulty accepting Christianity.

"Oriental people are not anti­ religious," he declared. "They believe all religions are good and equal. They cannot understand why Christians say their relig­ ion is needed for salvation."

He said priests in Japan "are now asking themselves why they are engaging in mission work, rather than how to engage in mission activities."

Polish Reds Refuse Visa for Prelate VIEWING FALL RIVER BOYS HIGH SCHOOL SITE: The sign at the President Ave. cut-off from Route 24 indicates to sightseer the area for the new Catholic High School for Boys in Fall River.

Commends Peace Efforts of Churchmen' Soviet at Papal Encyclical· Convocation NEW YORK (NC)-An editor of Pravda had kind words for the peace efforts of churchmen and also quoted approvingly from the Declaration of Inde­ pendence at an international convocation here on Pope John XXIII's encyclical Pacem in Terris.

N.N. Inozemstev spoke on the need for peaceful co-exist­ ence before an audience of 1,200 at the convocation sponsored by the Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions.

Most Rev. James L. Connolly, D.D., Bishop of Fall River, was among the 1,200 church leaders and government representatives ftom all parts of the world who attended the unusual session based on a Papal-encyclical.

Favorably Disposed Inozemstev, chief editor of Pravda and also an advisor of the Soviet Central Committee, relieved some anxieties -,- trig­ gered by the dip in U. S.-Soviet relations over the Vietnam crisis -by delivering a low-key and relatively conciliatory address.

He repeated familiar Russian criticisms of Western policy in the Congo, Vietnam and else­ where but coupled these with fresh emphasis on the need for world peace.

Inozemstev said the Sovfet people are "most favorably dis­ posed" to any initiative for peace, whether it comes from the

Support Liberations While the Soviets are admit­ tedly "striving for the victory of communism," he said through a simultaneous translator" this does not rule out peaceful co­ existence. He called co-existence a traditional Marxist tenet which has remained in force in the wake of last Fall's Soviet gov­ ernment shuffle that resulted in the ouster of Nikita Khrushchev

Inozemstev asserted the So­ viets continue to support so­ called "wars of national libera­ tion" but do not belive in "ex­ porting" such conflicts. Likewise, he added, they oppose the ex­ port of "counter-revolutions" designed to overthrow socialist regimes.

Urge Renewal in School Religion Courses

Educators Criticize Sterile Programs WASffiNGTON (NC)-A com­ m.ittee of the National Catholic Educational Association has called upon Catholic high schools to step up the pace of renewal in religious education courses.

The committee is critical of "sterile prognims" which do not impart any "real love" of Christ.

Instead, said. the committee, new catechetical techniques should be embraced. There should be a return to the teach­ ing power of the liturgy and the scientific research being made into Holy Scripture should be heeded, it added. .

Broad Review The appeal is made in a report of an advisory committee on re­

ligion of the Secondary School Department of the NCEA, na­ tional organization of teachers and administrators of Catholic s('"hools.

The department has sponsored a broad review of the course of­ ferings of Catholic hi&h schoola

in the past year. The religion report is printed in the Janu­ ary issue of the department's "Bulletin." Reports on other sub­ jects have been issued in the same publication in earlier is­ sues.

The committee holds that the Church and its members are en­ tering a new era, reflected in the work of the Second Vatican Council, and that there is in­ creasing emphasis on turning into reality the social and eco­ nomic implications of the Gospel.

Catholics, it adds, are coming out of the "ghetto" and this will have profound meaning for re­ ligious education.

Articulate Laymen The future Catholic layman,

it says, is going to be an articu­

late Catholic, "one who realizes

he has some say in running his

own parish, as well as his own

town."

"Freedom and its theological implication, now much discussed

by scholars, is going to have its impact. Authoritarian teaching is simply not going to exist.

Presentday teachers who bemoan this fact fail to realize the great glory of the free human mind and the fact that holiness freely willed and accepted has far more value than holiness which has simply been legislated," the re­ port says.

The clergy of tomorrow, it continues, will see the end of the "sealed-off rectory from' which emanate all decisions.'~

Pope Paul's Messages Encourages Pacem in Terris Convention NEW YORK (NC)-Pope Paul VI sent mesages of encourage-, ment and cordial good wishes for the ;uccess here of the Pacem in Terris" convocation, an interna­ tional study on the requirements for peace.

In a message deliveroo through New YOTk's Francis Cardinal Spellman, the Pope expressed a prayerful desire thal1: "these de­ liberations lead to positive action for world pea-ce." The Pope pl"aised the United Nations and ite; "irreplacable mission in pro­ moting mediation of disputes and restoration of peace."

In a letter to Robert M. Hutch­ ins, chairma-n of the internation­ al convocation to examine the requirements for peace, Pope Paul said a universal and peace­ ful society has as its basis the acceptance of one God as 1Jhe foundation of all justice and of all brotherhood.

"The recognition of this Di­ vine plan must then be followed by its execution through good. will among men," Pope Paul wrote.

Thanks Organizers The Pontiff thanked the orga­ nizers of the convocation for the honor paid to his predecessor, Pope' John XXIII, whose encyc­ lical Pacem in Terris was the basis for the four-day study of peace by world leaders.

In his message to Cardinal Spellman, the Pope said:

"On the occasion of the Inter­ national Convocation on Re­ quirements for peace we have addressoo our message of good wishes to Dr. Hutchins, chair­ man, and we would ask you, beloved son, to renew the ex­ pression .of our prayerful desire that these deliberations lead to positive action fOT world peace.

Particularly during the present grave international crisis it is necessary to invoke higher prin­ ciples of the moral order imd to recall the collective responsibil­ ity of all nations for the preser­ vation of friendly relationships and the avoidance of armed con­ filct which in our day would have incalculable and frightful results for all mankind.

PORTLAND (NC)-A Pres­ byterian minister, returning here to Oregon from a two-week visit to a Jesuit seminary, said Cath­ olic "practices and teachings are being reevaluated" to make them "understandable to Protes­ tants, relevant to the world" and "more clearly Biblical."

Dr. Robert H. Bonthius, pastor of Westminster Presbyterian church, visited Alma College, Los Gatos, Calif., where he fol­ lowed the seminary's 5:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. daily routine, inclu­ ding attendance at daily Mass.

Dr. Bonthius said he was "amaz­ ed at the openness of both. the students and faculty."

"The first night I was at the seminary, they asked me if I would lead them in a litany for church unity,"· he said. ''The next day, they read John Os­ born's play 'Martin Luther.'''

"The last day, a student asked me 'why are you here, and what have you found?' Another asked me for criticisms of theit theo­ logical curriculum," the minister said. . He' said he was "impressed by the amount of prayer and Bible reading that goes on." By following the reading of the Breviary, Dr. Bonthius said he found he would go through all 150 Psalms in one week, in addi­ tion to other Scripture read dur­ ing Mass, at meals and during Stations of the Cross.

At Long Last

Lent and Joy To some Catholic, a great many perhaps, the approach of Lent is rather like a dark cloud coming over the horizon and threatening the happiness-legitimate, of course-of their lives with the reminder of fast and abstinence and mortification. Lent thus appears as a gloomy interlude to be endured, got through, as quickly as possible. It is viewed like a trip to a hospital - the end result is de­ sirable but the means distaseful.

And that is too bad. It places on the Catholic who endures it a burden that should not be there. It is a point of view that quite misses the purpose of Lent.

If sin is looked upon as a refusal to love God, then Lent must be considered a time to overcome sin, to strengthen the will against temptation, to atone for past sins, to fill up in oneself those things lacking in the suffering of Christ--in short, as an opportunity to love God. Fast, abstinence, mortification, almsgiving-these are acts of sacrifice. And if it is true that the only test of the love of one person for another is in sacrifice, then the test of the love of a man for God is likewise to be found in sacrifice. The love of God for man is written in the details of Jesus' sacrifice for men. Men should make their actions of Lent deliberate and conscious and glorious acts of love of God. This alone makes Lent not just endurable but joyful.

And there is no contradiction in joyfulness and sacrifice, love and mortification.

The one is both the proof and the result of the other.

Believing this and putting it into practice can make the period of Lent a period not, only of spiritual progress but of great joy in the process.

Cutting, Short Life

By REV. ROBERT W. HOVDA, Catholic University

The Surgeon General of the United States has ex­ pressed both satisfaction in the numbers who have stopped smoking since his report on the adverse effects of ciga­ rette-smoking was published, and disappointment that the initial sharp drop has curved upwards again.

It is a frightening thing to realize that, according to a report just issued in London, the loss in life expectancy of an average smoker-20 cigarettes a day for men, 10 for women-is estimated to be 13.4 years for a man and 14.8 years for a woman. This loss amounts to 5.5 hours a day for both sexes.

These figures from the London report were projected regarding 'those now 15 years of age who take up cigarette smoking. They should cause the young adult to pause be­ fore he smokes. Even if he cannot appreciate how foolish his motive for smoking may be-insecurity and the attempt to "play adult," or aping the crowd-he should be able to understand the terrible risk he takes of shortening his life.

Witness

The elevation to the rank of Prince of the Church of Cardinals Slipyj and Beran underlines the sufferings and hardships that these two modern "living martyrs" of the Church have endured. At times younger members of the Church are impatient with their elders, feeling that these have not always caught the spirit of witness of the Gospel.

Their criticism is sometimes valid but, for the most part, is one of those libelous generalizations that feed the myth of the inherent opposition between young and old in the Church.

Here are two men, old in years but not in spirit, who have endured hardships that would cause a St. Paul to nod his head in recognition and salute. They have come liter­ ally from jail to the side of the Holy Father. And their manner is one of gentleness, of acceptance of God's Will in all circumstances, both difficult and fort1,litous.

This is witness, this is spending and being spent for Christ. Age has nothing to do with it-it is a matter of love of God and of an apostolic dedication that can only flow from the spirit of prayer and contemplation. This is what old and young in the Church are expected to have.

TODAY-Mass as on Sunday.

Christian emphasis on grace, on the utterly free gift of God's love and favor, must not deny the reality of personal responsibility. " 'The seed in good ground' are they who hear the word with nobility and goodness of heart, and retain it, and bear fruit in perseverance" (Gospel).

We are both utterly dependent on God and co-workers with Him. We accept a love which we cannot merit and yet we must strive to merit that love.

TOI\IORROW - Mass as on Sunday. All thi~ is apparent in the Mass, in our worship, where our sacrificial gift of selves is in­ extricably united to the Christ's offering of perfect humanity. To speak of the Mass only as Christ's offering of Himself to the Father is to reduce it, to de­ prive it of its full meaning as the sacrifice of the Church, of the People of God. Christ's offer­ ing becomes ours so that we may offer ourselves, a living sacrifice.

SATURDAY - st. Gab"riel of Our LadY of Sorrows, Confessor.

Simpli"city and singleness of heart find strong recommenda­ tion in both the readings of to­ day's Mass. The familiar refer­ ence to childhood and childlike­ ness, the advice to the young man seeking eternal'life, and the first reading's bluntness about the world' mortality - these present us, not with an ideology, but with an appeal for serious­ ness and wholehearted personal acceptance of thE' easy yoke.

QUINQUAGESIMA SUNDAY. "Jesus said to them, 'Now we are going up to Jerusalem, and all that was written by the prophets will be accomplished for the Son of Man" (Gospel).

So Our Lord points out what the Council's constitution on the sacred liturgy reiterates: that the Christ event can be grasped deeply and substantially only by a person who is familiar with the Old Testament as well as the New. Jesus is the center and focal point of a sacred history to which the whole Bible is the chief witness.

And for our current reform in public worship to be as meaning­ ful as it should be, we must be men and women of the Bible, familiar with sacred scripture.

That is why, in the annual Len­ ten renewal of Christian life and

faith, the first reading of the special weekday Masses is from the Old Testament-even when there are only two readings which during the rest of th~ year are generally both from the New. MONDAY - Mass as on Sun­ day. The beautiful first reading expresses in words what we should experience in every eu­ charistic celebration. The shar­ ing of the sacrament of Christ's body and blood is essentially an act of fellowship, fraternity solidarity. ' It is essentially an act of love, for Christian faith turns us out­ wards. away from preoccupation with ourselves. It turns us towards others and the world God has put in our charge. So the "greatest" and most enduring _ gift is love - tha' appreciation and valuing of the other which "covers over everything, believes everything, hopes for everything, puts up with everything."

TUESDAY-Mass as on Sun­ day. Love, too, is a part of that gift of vision, tha~ gift of sight, so often associated with Jesus in the Gospels. Lent reminds us not only that before our baptism we were blind but also that we are in constant danger of be­ , coming blind again. . We have to return to the 'Truth, to the One Who gives - sight. And the loves He com­ mands is part of, that gift: for when we learn to value and ap­ preciate God's creatures, when we learn to love them, we do , indeed see them anew.

ASH, WEDNESDAY. "Return to me with your whole heart, with fasting, and weeping, and mourning; rend your hearts, not your garments • ••" (first read­ ing). Both lessons teach the same truth: the renewal of faith, the recovery of our baptismal direc­ tion and orientation, in which we engage during these 40 days must be interior. must touch our heart and the depths of our be­ ing, must not be merely external.

And in these days of reform in the Church, the symbol of ashes is fraught with meaning and challenge. How we cling to mere custom! How unready we are to return to ashes even those habits of ours which mos~ obvi­ ously stand as impediments be­ tween Christ-working-in-us and the world in which we livw

Faces People

Continued from Page One Now this was not some strange new practice. There were no peJl­ missions to be sought from Rome. The Church's liturgical directives already provided f . it.

But there were problems. 1ft most churches, the tabernacle was on the main altar. Most of these were elaborate construc­ tions which truly hid both the priest and Mass from the people even though he might be facing the congregation. As late as 1957 it was forbidden to transfer the tabernacle to some other part of the church eJccept a special minor altar. It was also forbid­ den to celebrate Mass in this way where there was only one altar.

Norman Means However, the Vatican Council has again brought the pendulum to the center. It not only stressed that Mass facing the people was a normal means of celebration but it strongly approved it and taught it to be greatly desirable.

In the Council hall itself, an the Masses that could be so celebrated were thus offered.

The great Papal concelebrations were always offered facing the congregation.

In his Instruction' on Imple­ menting the Constitution on the Liturgy, Pope Paul surprised many by issuing clear directives on this matter where it had been , approved only in theory before.

From now on, directs the Pope, in new churches or in those to be renovated, provisions are to be made for Mass facing the con­ , gregation. ,The altar is to be free of walls and so situated that Mass may be offered from either side.

Promotes Participation Since the positIOn of the taber­ nacle was always a problem, the Pope suggested certain solu­ tions. The tabernacle may be reduced in size and Mass may be offered facing, the people even if this is the only altar in a church. It is also equally per­ mitted-not only tolerated-that the Blessed Sacrament be re­ served in another specially dec­ orated altar or even in some o the r arrangement in the church.

However, this matter is impor­ tant. It is not only a fancy or modern attraction: Mass facing the people has definite advan­ tages in promoting participation and in emphasizing the true na­ ture of the sacrificial meal. Thus, as stated in the council diree­ . tives, the Diocesan Bishopre­ mains always the authority ill liturgical matters. No major or permanent changes may be made to the physical arrangements of a church without his permission.

Mass has often been offered facing the congregation in the Diocese of Fall River. This last week, the Bishop himself offered a concelebrated ordination Mass in the cathedral. Masses illull­ _ trating changes to come are be­ ing offered facing the people thi. _ week throughout the, diocese.

More Productive As early as' 1961 it was per­ ,mitted to offer Mass regularly - facing the congregation on weekday evenings of Lent so all "to bring the people more and more into an understanding participation in the sacred rites."

Thus the real reason for such a manner of celebrating Mass comes to the fore--increased and facilitated participation. It is the congregation's Mass-priest AND people - their sacrifice, their meal. All have a direct part to play. Experience has taught that this can be more easily, more naturally and more fruitfully done where there is a direct communication est a b 1 ish ed, where the people may see and thus normally respond and share , -each in his own way-in the cdfering of their Mass.

Crippled Children Home Receives $60,000 NEW YORK (NC)"":':Tne Ox­ ford Committee for Fami,ne Re­ lief has announced plans to don­ ate $60,000 for the expansion of the John F. Kennedy Memorial Home for Crippled in Nyabondo, Kenya.The expansion is being earried out by Catholic Relief Service--National Catholic Wel­ fare Conference, the overseas aid agency of American Catholics.

Included in the grant are the entire publishing profits-$7,OOO -from the book "John F. Ken­ nedy" by Urs Schwarz.

The grant will be phased over three years and will be used by the Nyabondo Catholic Mission

operators of the home, for ad­

Praise Interfaith Laymen's Program NEW IBERIA (NC)-C1erty and laity alike praised an inter­ faith program here organized by laymen here in Louisiana. . "Operation Understanding," held on two successive Sundays, involved open houses at Catholic, Protestant and Jewish houses of 'Worship. Several hundred per­ sons, both white and Negro took part in the exchange of visits.

Plans for the program were coordinated by a committee of Jeymen. Auxiliary Bishop War­ !'en L. Boudreaux of Lafayette, La., pastor of St. Peter's church here, predicted that the program would promote religious unity and would also "strengthen our community in a spirit of charity . and friendship among aU 0Ul' citizens." .

Are we asking too many old­ sters? Too many young people?

What about children? All? Well, what's the age cut-off?

Bridesmaids?

No, said Markie:"" a decision met with a sigh of relief. Only Ginny, as maid of honor. Pretty sweet, charming as bridesmaids are, they do present a problem­ quite a few problems ail we know from experience. Getting four or five girls of various shapes and sizes· and colorings to agree is a time-consuming, patience­ consuming experience: "I could never wear a high­ waisted gown." , "1 look simply awful in that color!"

Then, the hats. the gloves, the flowers, the boy friends ••• problems multiply, and there are enough decisions to be made anyway.

And once the announcement of an engagement has been printed in a newspaper, the telephone starts and continues ringing, morning, noon and night. At our house, it is: "We do lovely bridal photographs, and our candids are considered tops"; "You'll want musie, of course, and we elm furnish every,thing from a trio to a full orchestra"; "YoW' floral decorations need riot both­ er yOU a bit if you let us handle the details for you"; "We'd like' to bring some samples of our beverages out for you to try"; and on and on and on.

Brad's telephone rings, always at odd hours, with offers of iri­ aurance "which of course you will want"; automobiles, houses -for rent or sale; apartments; and on and on and on.

To all of this we have become accustomed * * • We consult our booklet ·of names, telephone numbers, per­ sonnel serving other family wed­ dings and go on with this one·· * Next?

College President Says Stereotype Role . Unacceptable in Women's Education LINCOLN (NC) - Education for women must help them r~sist "blind acceptance of any stereo­ type role," oJ. college president said here in TIlinois. ''Today more than ever before it is clear that there will never be one pattern for women," said Sister Mary Ann Ida, president of Mundelein College in Chicago. ''There will always be individ­ ual women of varying kinds and aptitudes, and each will find ful­ fillment insofar as' she discovers herself, develops her unique powers, and determines in what way she will utilize them in her adult life," she declared in an address at the centennial convo­ cation of Lincoln College.

Modem Needs Sister Ann Ida said the "ayer cake" approach to a woman's life -with certain years set aside for sehool; others for homemaking, and others for a return to the . jo"b-"does not do justice to the aeeds of many modem young 'Women."

She noted that increasing Dumbers of women are retuming to school for further education; that their ages range from the early 20s to the mid-60s; and that their expectations cover an equally wide range, from im-

Beginners'·' Garden . Possible

For Minimum. Cost,. Effort

Rtv~-Thurs.,

Feb. 25, 1965

9

By Joseph and Marilyn Roderick For a minimum of eost, time and effort, the beginning prdener can have a productive vegetable garden in almost any type of soil. In this and the next article I should Ike to describe a garden designed for a beginner.

Begin with a small piece fast and abstinence, the kitchen fJI. land, approximately five becomes the center of many of feet by 10 feet,· which gets our sacrifices as we offer up to lit least six hours of SUD­ our Lord that extra portion or lbine a dllJ'. In March or April, Jrhen the son Is workable (not ~ggy or frozen) spade it with • spade or fork to a depth of about 10 inches, turn it over, and break any clumps of dirt by hit­ ting them with the back of the III)8de.

Sprinkle six or seven cups of iIOmmercial fertilizer on top of the soil and rake it lightly, re­ 1Il0ving any stones or foreign «lebris in the process. Fertilizer may be purchased in sman amounts in garden centers or hardware stores in five pound packages or 83 packaged rose Iood, lawn fertilizer etc., for less than a dollar.· Do not overwork the soil by trying to get every pebble out of the garden, since this does more harm than good.

Once the soll has been tumed ~er, fertilized ane raked lightly, • is ready for planting.

By the middle of April, started wgetables are for sale at nur­ • ries and stores. These have been seeded in wooden flats and -.ay be purchased at reasonable prices for transplanting; The first to appear are lettuce and onion .ts. They are so easy and cheap Jhat they are a good choice for • beginning gardener. Onion sets lIlay be planted about six inchea apart and three inches deep in the border of the garden, whlle lettuce should be planted about • foot apart and in rows. In transplanting from a flat, try to keep as much soil on the roota • possible and water thoroughly lifter planting.

After planting, both oniona and lettuce lequire no special .-re and-the Spring rains should 1M! sufficient to keep them wen ""tered. In order to help the lettuce along, It Is a good idea 10 fertilize each head, with a .ttle ring of fertilizer, about three inches from the base of the plant.

Toma~

Peppers A little later in the Spring I ~uld suggest buying small flats fJI. tomatoes al1d green peppers.

• small garden can take about l'lght tomato plants spaced about three feet apart and about six pepper plants spaced about 18 kches apart. Illettuce is planted In. rows, the tomatoes may be planted between the rows. By the time the tomatoes reach a good 1IIze, the lettuce should have Iormed big enough heads to be llemoved and eaten avoiding the problem of crowding.

The only serious problem with tomatoes and peppers is cut worm. They may be protected Irom. the worm by It paper collar, Whicp is merely a piece of wrap­ ping paper or paper bag rolled ..to 'a hollow tubt: and placed wound the stem of the plant, be­ .mnmg just above the roots and atending two or three inches 8bove· the son when the plant II transplanted.

I ,would ~est beginning "th: sets of vegetables I have IIste4 above. because they are fairly foolproof and yet give a ~ yield. A garden such as the .-e -I have described may be lItarted for approximately $3 and wtll produce enough fresh vege­ tables to more than offset tbe effort involved. After the gar­ den is planted, there is little to *» but water, mulch and weed, IIut more about this next week.

that between meal snack. How­ ever, being only human we look forward to that "one last fling" or feast before fast that is known 83 Shrovetide.

In this area, we do not cele­ brate the whole pre-Lenten.sea­ son as much 83 we celebrate Shrove Tuesday or Pancake Tuesday. In early Christian times this became the day when the housewife used up all her fats and meats that would be prohibited during the 40 days of fast. In Portuguese households, even today, this is the day wh~n the traditional Malassadas are made. These are a delicious raised doughnut, a great delicacy to those who eat them and a source of pride to those who make them. My mother-in-law, Mrs. Joseph Roderick of St. An­ thony of Padua. Parish, Fall River, makes the most mouth­ watering Malassadas I have ever tasted and the following is her recipe.

Malassaelas 1 package of yeast or one cake ¥4 cup lukewarm water 6 eggs 1 ¥4 cups water or milk (we pre­ fer the water) 0/.& cup sugar 2 teaspoons salt 2 pounds flour 3 tablespoons melted butter 2 pounds lard granulated sugar .About 5 hours before you plan to fry malassadas: 1) Dissolve the yeast in the ~ cup of lukewarm water.

Z) In a large bowl beat eggs, slightly.

3) Add to. the beaten eggs the 1 J4 cup of liquid, sugar, salt and flour. The flour Is added very gradually, mixing Well after each addition.

4) Add the melted butter and the yeast to tbis mixture.

5) Knead the dough until It Js very elastic in consistency.

I) Place in a clean bowl, COVel' and place in a warm, draft-free place. Let rise. The dough will double in size, and this procea takes about 5 hours. ") Heat lard in a large pan or skillet until it is about 375· to 400°. A candy thermometer Is • great help here. (My mother- . in~law has found that an electric skillet does not seem to reach this temperature even though the dial is set for it.) Test by drop­ ping a little dough into melted shortening until dough rises im­ mediately upon hitting the hot fat.

8) Wet hands and pick up a small handful of the dough. The size you like will have to depend upon experiInentation. Stretch this dough with your fingers until q~ thin.· (My father-in­ law said until· can see day­ Ught through it.) Quickly lay the dough on top of the bubbling fat.

It rises immediately and when brown on one side (about a min­ ute), tum and brown second side.

0) Remove from fat and eprinkle warm malassadas with granulated sugar.

10) If all the dough is not used at once it may be refriger­ ated to be used for another batch of malassadas or any other deep fat frying.

The size and consistency OIl these delicious raised doughnuts depends upon personal prefer­ ~. They ahould not be greasy (which means fM • not Me ~uCh)' douW .. bea\17.

Television Show Oasis of Peace for Mom, Tots A Saturday morning oasis of peace is offered pre-school chil­ dren and their parents by Sister .Janet Marie and Sister Rose An­ nette of Our Lady of Victory Missionary Sisters, West Har­ Wich.

Appearing from 9:30 to 10 each Saturday morning· on WTEV, New Bedford Channel 6, on a program entitled "Little ,Flock," the Sisters teach a group of Cape kindergarten tots the pri­ mary truths of religion.

At their kick-off program last Saturday, pretty Sister .Janet Marie, not much bigger than some of her pupils, explained that our Lord Is a good shepherd and taught her class, both on TV and at home, a aimple song to remind them of the fact.

She drew a shepherd and his sheep, painstakingly copied by her kindergartners on camera and, hopefully, by her home audience. For next week, ahe said, viewers should have on hand gummed tape or paste and several pictura of "'things only God can make, such as water,

animals, sun and stars."

Senel Ii In This homework done by child viewers should be sent to "Little Flock, Station WTEV, New Bed­ ford," she said. Children who complete and mail in their week­ ly "assignments" will receive certificates at the end of the re­ ligion course. "Send in the work your child has done, no matter how it looks to you," said Sister .Janet Marie in an aside to par­ ents.

"Now get your. mothers," in­ structed Sister, towards the end of her class period. Then Sister Rose Annette took over the pro­ gram, Interpreting for parents the aim of the TV Course.

"A child's first religion book Is his family." she stressed.

"P'amily atmosphere, f a m 11 y pra"er and the family relation­ ship with God are teaching him flVery day."

She listed. five requisite. for

Weak Moments-Tests of Faith-

..

View Rela·tion of Church To Contemporary World

God Love You

By Most Rev. Fulton J. Sheea, DoD. Everyone has his "weak moments" when sID eomflll flUJ'.

Esau was "tired" when he sold his splrltual birthright for a bowl of porridgoe (Gen. 25: 29). Cain had his weak moment when Jealousy took hold of him and he murdered his brother (Gen. t: 5·8. David had his weak moment when he saw Bethsabee In her penthouse, and then murdered her husband In order to Dlaft7 her (0 Kin&'s 11: 2-5: 17: 26). Peter had hfs weak moment when.

In a conversation with a younc woman, he denied his Master (Mark 14: 66-'72). Anaeas and Sapphira had their weak momentll when they boasted the,. had given an their properly to the Chura and 1IacI Dot (Actll 5: 1-10).

By Rt. Rev•. Msgr. John S. Kennedy

Two groups of laymen give their views of the Church In. its relation to the contemporary world in The Layman and the Council (Templegate. $8.95) and Objections to Roman Catholicism (Lippincott. $8.95.) The first book is

by Americans, the second by tar, with some of its laymen act­ English men and women.· ing as emissaries. Rather the They are very different in whole Church, the total people eharacter and tone, and will of God, enlivened and made rel­ be even more different in the effect they have. The American ~posium, The Layman and the Council, be­ Ian as a series • f newspaper

articles. It is in

five parts: "The

Good Old Days

Are With Us

Ye t ," "Well,

What Do Lay­

men Wan t,"

. ."'Who Is the Layman? What Is His Role," "Questions and Challenges for the Council," "'Where Do We Go From Here!"

All participants have a go at every topic.

The contributors are John eogley, Daniel Callahan, Donald I. Thorman, and Martin H. Work, with Michael Greene serving u editor. Each of these men k keen and critical, each is out­ epoken.

The one drawback to their eommon effort's present appear­ ance is that they wrote before. the third session of the council, hence, here at any rate, have aothing to say of its proceedings Md accomplishments.

Wants Theory Clarified The gentlemen are by no means agreed in all reSpects. Thus, Mr. Callahan is impatient of theoriz­ Ing. As an American, he says, he is distrustful of elaborate ra­ tionalization and even legisla­ tion. ''The mere existence of the Bill of Rights does not guarantee tbat all Americans will be free.

Mr. Work, on the other hand, Insists that clarification of theo1'7 III impertive: "I don't believe we'll hear the full-throated roar of a laity in high speed until the real nature of the Church is re­ d.efined and understood by the layman • • • The central prob­ lem of the layman -and the cen­ tral problem of the priest, the bishop, and the Church - calls tor a re-definltion of the nature of the Church in terms under­ aandable to the modem mind."

Obviously the contributors !lead one another's pieces, for they not only allude to what they ~ave seen in another's offering. but they occasionally come to grips with, and even into con­ tention 0 vel', one another'. ideas.

Layman In Worl4 For example, Mr. Cogley de­ dares that too much is being lIllid about the layman in the Church· and not enough about the larman in the world. He says, "I think t see signs of • easte-system developing· among the laity, the emergence of a kind of pseudo-hierarchy of pro­ fessional laymen whose mind-set frequentlY is dismayingly cleri­ eaI andlwhose preoccupations·are everwhelmingly ecclesiastical in the narrow sense."

He wants the layman to be truly committed to the world. By tbis he does not mean that the layman should be worldly in the bad sense, but that he should be d.eeply .concerned about, and ac­ tive in, the business of the world. . Only so, he argues, can he ''In­ amate Christianity in the social _d political order."

Lay Participation The Church should not, to his -.ind, b~ cut off from the lleCa­

evant to 111 temporal context, should be doing the work which, in Mr. Cogley'. concept is re­ stricted to but a portion of its members.

A suggestion which recurs in more than one form is for ~t­ er lay participation in the think­ ing of the Church and in its ex­ pression. Mr. Cogley believes that the Church cannot regain touch with modem life unless it brings back "popular wisdom" in the form of a consensus whiC'h is allowed to formulate and to be heard.

Mr. Callahan recalls Orestes Brownson's advocacy of the idea that the layman has a "mission of intelligence." And Mr. Cogley Instances the communications decree of the council as a glar­ ing example of deficiency squarely attributable to failure to consult and heed duly quali­ fied laymen.

Controversial Essa,.s The essays in Objections to Roman Catholicism are more scholarly, lengthier, and far more controversial. The book has no imprimatur, Michael de la Bedoyere, the editor, says, "To have attempted to produce thU book with the Catholic imprima­ tur would, of course, have been absurd. Its whole point is to break new ground in the spirit of Pope John."

It is easy enough to appeal to "the spirit of Pope John" in de­ fense of departure from Church law, but such procedure is actu­ ally a betrayal of the tnIe spirit of Pope John. For what is being discussed in much of this book is doctruie, and in some of the discussion the doctrine of the Church is ridiculed and repre­ sented as untenable by an intel­ ligent person.

Abo. Superstition This is particularly true of Magdalen Goffin's chapter ealled "Some Reflections on Supersti­ tion and Credulity." Mrs. Goffin makes some irrefutable points about superstition and cannot be faulted for her harsh treatment of accidental accretions which, for some Catholics have become the esssence of their religion.

But it is something else again when she refers to what she considers superstitions in the New Testament, when she stig­ matizes the doctrine of hell as superstition, when she holds it superstitious to require exact ob­ servance of matter and form In the administration of the sacra­ ments and so on.

Again, in G. F. Pollard's chap­ ter "Existential Reactions against Scholasticism," there are some very pertinent and telling things said about the limitations of scholastic philosophy, especially in view of genuinely scientific findings (about human nature, for example) in our day. But the author habitually resorts to overtatement and gives the im­ pression that St. Thomas was a pretty shabby sort.

In short, the frequent resort to extremism, and the unconscion­ able excess in some sections, spoil this book. There is a case to be made for aggiornamento in all respects. It ean and should be made candid17 and forcefully.

But the bounds of reasonablenea are 'violated here.

Reassign Native Of New Bedford To Philippines Very Rev. Conrad H. Blanchet, M. S., Superior General of the La Salette Fathers, has announced that Brother Leonard Melanson, M.S. of New Bedford has been reas­ signed to the Philippines.

Brother Leonard, born Nov. 8, 1925 in New Bedford is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Pierre Melanson 32 Duncan Street, New Bedford. and members of St, Joseph'.

. No chain is stronger than its weakest link. But such weak mo­ ments are tests of your faith. Paradise can be lost in Paradke; traitors are made even in daily compan­ ionship with Christ, as was Judas. And yet, St. Paul tells us that "power is made perfect in infirmity." (2 Cor. 12:9). Some­ times a tooth that is filled is stronger than It was before.

When we know we are Ignorant, we ean learn. When we know we are weak, we can do two things: 1. Call on Christ when we need strength beyond our power, as sinking Peter did.

Diocesans In Holy Cross Scholasticate

Many young men of the Fall River Diocese have found their vocation in the life of a Holy Cross Brother. Since 1962 they have not had to travel far for their academic training, for in that year Moreau Hall was opened at Stone­ hill College, North Easton. it accom­ modates Brothers from the Eostern Province of the community os they earn degrees needed to fit them for teach­ ing or other professio~1 activities. Pre­ viously the Brothers traveled to Notre Dame University or to St. Edward's University, Austin, Tex. for their aca­ demic studies, now they attend classes at Stonehill.

Brother Pacificus Halpin .. the present superior at Moreau Harl. He taught at the community's house in Rome, Italy before his present assign­ ment and previously was superior and principal at Notre Dame High School,.

West Haven, Conn.

Brother Albertus Smith, a native of Taunton and member of the first graduating class at Coyle High School in that" city, is assistant superior at Moreau.

The present group of scholastics represents many states in the Eastern Holy Cross Province and includes five men from the Fall River Diocese.

Diocesan Men They are Brother Joseph Qum and Brother Peter McGarry, Holy Family par.ish, Tounton; Brother James Nichols and Brother David Andrews, St. Jos­ eph's, Taunton; and Brother James Pontolilo, St. Mary's, Norton."

"They work and. live in beautiful IVrroundings. Moreau Hall, on. the Stonehill campus, conforms in style to the Georgian architecture of the other college buildings, which occupy the forIner' Ames" estate in North E~ton. " The Brothers' schOla'sticate .. but one of the many' Holy Cross contribu­ tions ta religious. life in ,the Fall River Diocese. The community first came to the area in 1933, when a seminary wos opened In North Dartmouth and Coyle

High School was opened

mTaunton.

1ft 1935 the seminary was moved to North Easton and in 1948 SmnehiU College was opened. Some dub it "The Notre Dame of the East," to which the favorite Stoneh ill retort is "Notre Dame is the Stonehill of the West."

The North Dartmouth site is now used os headquarters for the Holy Cross Mission House, from which priests go to preach missions and retreats.

Recollection days for priests are held at the adjoining St. Joseph's Hall, also headquarters for the Holy Cross Associ- " ate Family. a lay auxiliary group.

Scholastic life Much interest centers on the life of the Brothers of the Holy Cross Congre­ gation. At their scholasticate ift North Easton, officials explain, the young Brothers in addition to academic stud­ ies, continue their religious formation, begun In the novitiate.

In three years they become eligibte

for final profession, or they may choose te renew annual vows yearly for three years. "The scholasticate program,· say directors, "is a blend of spiritual confer~nces and monitions, directions and exercises; dasses, chores and Fee­ reatlon.·

Many vocations have been nurtUl'­ ed by Coyle High School, say the Bro­ thers. Most recent tabulations show that .u priests of the Fall River Diocese are Coyle graduate&1 12 priests are serving in other Dioceses; 19 members are mem­ ben of religious communities; and 15 a... pres'ently seminarians. Thirty-six Coyle men ha.,. become Holy ere.

Brothers.

IrotftePS' AdiYlties lit addition· to teaching, Brothers

~ay engage iRone of 11 special ac­ tivities of the congregation, including

foreign missionary work. The congre­ gation conducts 90 schools in 10 coun­ tries, including elementary schools and high schools, boys' homes and camps and a university.

Teenagers' 'New Morality'

Based on Absurd Reasoning

WASHINGTON (N C) - A spokesman for the Department of Education of the National­ Catholic WeI far e Conference told Congress that it supports President Johnson's Federal aid to education proposal, but has some questions about the details of its operation.

Msgr. Frederick G. Hochwalt, director of the department, ap­ peared before a subcommittee of the House Education and Labor Committee.

By John J. Kane. Ph. D. "1 am a 17-year-old girl and I fully agree with the advice you gave the disobedient teen ager. You see, I had a similar problem. My mother did not let me date until I was 15 but I was not allowed to go out with a boy in a car. I disobeyed, started over. When a serious marit;l going steady with a fellow quarrel erupts. the husband is and he persuaded me to do likely to remind his wife of her things that are immoral, premarital experience, and then saying nothing is a sin so long as no one is hurt. My reputation was ruined and boys who heard [. about me tried to date me for this reason. I h a v e finally overcome this and am h2l;>PY. but it was diffi- cult." Alice, I should like to com men t on your letter be- cause you have raised a point I didn't-the matter of a girl's reputation.

You have also encolintered what might be called the "new morality", i.e. nothing is wrong about premarital sex relations so long as no one is hurt. It may be new but it is not moral.

Sex Revolution A number of recent books have dwelt on the so called "sex revolution" which is reputedly sweeping campuses, college and high school. Boilen down to its basic ingredient it amounts to this. Premarital sex relations are not immoral if, first, they are limited to a couple which is in love; second, if neither party is hurt by this relationship.

But according to this reasonlng, sexual promiscuity is wrong.

The girl who engages in sex relationships with several bays or the boy who does so with several girls violates the standards of the new sex revolution.

There has, of course, been no . ehange in moral teachings about premarital relationships. They are forbidden and even if a milHon teenagers disagree. this doesn't change moral obligations.

Serious BnsJness Furthermore. the reasoning behind this "new morality" is absurd. Being in love is a rather Ilerious business. Tme lovels lIOm.ething which develops over a period of time. Love at first alght is not love at all but infatuation. That bit about "some enchanted evening you will see a stranger" is great for a song In a musical but not for realitY. True love involves sacrifice and part of this is sexual remaint. When a boy persuades or demands sexual favon from a girl prior to marriage it is ~cely true love, even if be thinks it is.

As a matter of fact, once the girl consents, she frequently finds the boy not only doesn't love her, but he doesn't even respect her anymore.

Second Aspect The second aspect of the ''new morality" that such relationships are not wrong if no one is hurt Is also ridiculous. Someone is ALWAYS hurt.

Any person reared in the Judaic-Christian tradition has been taught that this action is wrong. U nothing else. and usu­ ally there is something else, these persons suHer pangs of conscience and sometimes feel­ Ings of guilt deep enough to be ealled depression.

When the "true love" turns out to be only an infatuation for one of the parties, the association is broken off. The more deeply Involved of the two suHers rather keenly.

Even when the affair culmi­ aates in marriage. tiouble ia not

if bitter enough. go on to suggest that he was not the first boy.

Troth Gets OUt One of the ironic rationaliza­ tiODS used for premarital affairs is that a couple must know whether or not they are sexually compatible before marriage. It is amazing to uncover such argu­ ments among Catholic students. but it happens. .

There is yet another way in which someone gets hurt in these circumstances. Whether the boy tells or not, and some make a point of boasting of such con­ quests, truth frequently gets out.

In our society, which still retains the immoral double standard, the girl gets hurt badly.

The word that she is easy to get seems to travel about as fast as radio waves. Not only does the news spread but it is usually exaggerated.

She then becomes the target of all the boys who are seeking sexual gratification. She also becomes the girl other boys avoid. Even those who would or have taken advantage of such a girl date her only secretly or at a time and place where they are not likely to be seen.

The boy, however. is rarely hurt or hurt very little. Even though he may have been mainly responsible for the act, society tends to excuse him and blame her. This is patently silly, but un­ fortunately that is jUst the way things are. For some stupid rea­ son, the girl is supposed to be the custodian of morality in our society.

Sinful Relationship "The teenager enamoured ol this "new morality" might pon­ der these possibilities, if for no other reasan that they have the testimony of a teenager girl who experienced a loss of reputation this way.

Basically. there is one lOUd reason why premarital sex rela­ tiona are wrong. It is not because a girl loses her reputation. or a premarital pregnancy occurs or any of these temporal matten.

It is simply that such relation­ ships are sinful.

Even if the individual is luek7 enough to avoid loss of reputa­ tion or other consequeoees, and the chances are not high that .he will, the most important con­ sequence, Bin, is not avoided.

Furthermore, if society .. really serious about rejecting the "new morality", boys should be taught that they are not above the moral code. There is no dou­ ble standard morally ·speaking.

It is time men realized this.

Nurse Urges Support Of Friendship Fund BERKELEY (NC) - Kathleen Dahl, a nurse who worked with the Student Non-Violent Coor­ dinating Committee in Mississip­ pi last year, is now helping to establish a Mississippi FTiend­ Bhip Fund to aid this work.

She is working now -with the Berkeley Catholic Interracial Council here in California.

Miss Dahl pointed out that civil rights volunteers in Missis­ sippi and other places. in the South are cut off from employ­ ment within the community. making them dependent on liv­ in&: expenses from "&he outside.·

The President's proposal to give $1 billion to benefit public elementary and sec 0 n dar y s c ho 0 1 s enrolling poverty­ stricken children and to share the benefits with needy children in parochial and other private schools through a system of shared services and facilities was

called "a challenge which can be met."

"Saying that he and his asso­ ciates have a "continulng opti­ mism" about the proposal, Msgr.

Hochwalt added in a statement prepared ior delivery: He said that-"aware of my obligation to Catholic parents and to Catholic school children" - he would continue to make evaluations of the legislation as it moves through Congress.

The language of the bill before Congress, he said, stipulates that the benefits of the program are to -be provided "to a notable ex­ tent" to children in non-public schools.

"Will our children truly be re­ cipients of the services they need? Are these benefits sub­ stantial?" he asked.

New. Cardinals

Continued from Page One declared: "We believe that be­ cause of the representative char­ acter of the Church which has lately been assumed in a more evident manner by the College of Cardinals, and because of the functions of greater responsibil­ ity in ecclesiastical government which are entrusted to it, the number now reached should not seem excessive to anyone. It may still be increased further. We also believe that this fact will not lessen the honor but, on the contrary, will add to the prestige of the Sacred C<>llege itself."

The first reason that had led him to increase membership, Pope Paul said, was "to preserve and add to th~ excellence and the efficiency of the College of Cardinals."

Noting the growing complex­ ity of central Church adminis­ tration, the Pope declared: "Our need increases for your cooper­ ation in the Roman curia or for your support if you are outside Rome and scattered about the world in other concerns of ec­ elesiastical ministry."

In several parts of his speech the Pope stressed the consulta­ tive role of the College of Car­ dinals. Early in speech he used the descriptive phrase "this senate of ours."

Again as if answering criti­ cism, the Pope stated: "The eyes of the world may regard as a vanity our decision to increase the number and the dignity of the cardinals who will surround the pontifical throne. Instead let the eyes of every Catholic'" '" '" regard it as our concern to show the various members of which the visible body_of the ChuTch consists of our affection', our es­ teem and our veneration.

Speaking of the new cardinals from behind the Iron Curtain. the Pope said that their "partic­ ular characteristic and common glory is the suffering endured before the eyes of men for the Catholic faith and its confession. supported by a pure innocence, oppressed by unjust pain in the name of Christ."

Josef Cardinal Beran, Arch­ bishop of Pragu.:- had only been released from prison three days before the Consistory, after 17 years of being a Czechoslovak captive. He will not return to . Prague.

It has often been affirmed and taken for granted in Vatican circles that the Prague archbish­ op was among three cardinals Pope John XXIII named in "petto", in the heart-without revealing their identities-before his death. Even if this were proved so, Cardinal Beran would remain a cardinal created by Pope Paul.

Lawrence Cardinal Shehan of Baltimore said here the U. S. Church faces serious challenges, but he advised that the s'uccess of churchmen a century ago in meeting their problems is a les­ son for today's Catholics.

The cardinal's comments came Monday in a speech broadcast

by J'atican Radio after he had received the formal written notification, called a biglietto, that Pope PauJ VI had chosen l1im as a member of the College of Cardinals.

Interfaith Sermons On Rrtcial Relations LORAIN (NC) - C a th olie priests joined with Protestant, Jewish and Orthodox clergymen In preaching sermons on racial justice in churches throughout Lorain County here in Ohio.

The sermons were promoted by the Lorain County Confer­ ence on Religion and Race, mem­ bers of ~hich include clergy aud laymen from the four religious faiths

Presidential Aim Is to Outlaw Right to Work Laws WASHINGTON (NC)-Presi­ dent Johnson, in pledging to seek repeal of the Taft-Hartley Act's "right to work" provisions" touched a sensitive nerve in American Catholicism.

The President said in his State of tl).e Union Message that by aiming for removal of Taft­ Hartley's right-to-work section he hoped to "reduce conflicts that

for several years have divided Americans in various states."

Such conflicts have broken out time and again among American Catholics. .

In the past decade-and-a-half the U. S. Catholic community has produced impassioned declara­ tions on both sides of the right­ to-work issue.

Bishops Oppose Overall it appears that Cath­ olic opponents of right-to-work laws (at least among those who have won a hearing in the pub­ lic forum) outnumber support­ ers. Certainly, since 1958, they can claim the most auUlOritative direct s;inction for their views­ in the form of a joint statement issued by the Catholic bishops of Ohio on March 20 of that year .solidly opposing right-to-work.

Several individual Catholic bish­ ops in various parts of the coun­ try have also spoken out against such laws.

On Both Sides But Catholic :t;ight-to-work de­ fenders appear entrenched and adamant. It seems more than likely that, when President Johnson makes his definitive more into this area, the ensuing controversy will once again find Catholics on both sides.

Right-to-work laws, it has often been pointed out, are not exactly what their name implies.

"They give no one the right the right to work,' nor do they obtain jobs for anyone out of work," declared 'a recent statement by the Social Action Commission of the New Mexico Council of

Churches (which includes the Santa Fe archdiocese).

What these laws do instead is to outlaw so-called "union shop" arrangements between labor and management under which new employees of a business are re­ quired to ;oin a union within a certain period-usually 30 days -after being hired.

Congo Missionaries WASHINGTON (NC)-A res­ olution (H.J. Res. 284) to author­ ize the President to declare a "day of praYJr and dedication" in memory of American miJsion­ aries slain in the Congo has been introduced in the House by Rep. Melvin Price of Illinois. It was referred to the Judiciary Com­ mittee.

Lent Offers Opportunity To Show Love for God

By Rev. Joseph T. McGloin, S. J. You wish a Catholic "Happy Lent," and he knows you have to be kidding, pecause he feels instinctively that happi­ ness and Lent are contradictory terms. Nobody, but no­ body loves Lent-and yet, Lent does have quite some little eonnectton with love.

The most exciting league pennant battle was staged in the B r i s t 0 I County • I 0 0 p whch ended in a three-way tie with Attleboro High, Coyle of Taunton a n d Durfee of Fall River sharing the h 0 nor s .

Each had iden­ tical 11 - won, three-lost rec­ ords. The diocesan Taunton War­ riors put on a last week drive to knot the first place finish by defeating Attleboro and Durfee.

The Coyle victory over the Fall River combine gave Coach Jim Lanagan's boys their fourth straight conquest of the Hilltop­ pers, having swept both games last year and this season.

Off to Garden The three BCL titllsts will compete in the Tech tourney w~ch u open to all clubs that wtn 70 per cent of their regular season games. Under the Princi­ pal's Association rules no team .ma~ play more than 20 contests dunng the regular season. They do not have to play the 20, how­ ever. The 70 per cent figure gov­ ems regardless of whether a team plays the permitted max­ lmwn number.

It will be interesting to see how, the Bristol loop' trio fares i? the Boston Garden competi­ tion. ~e Attleboro Bombardiers have two of the strongest re­ bounders in the area in Jotm Shockro and Dave - Hardt. The former is recognized as one of the finest county shooters as well as for his excellence in the back court. But Hardt has made his presence known equally well in the Attleboro drive. His dom­ ~ation of the backboards, offen­ sl.vely and defensively, has been dIsheartening for many a Jew­ elry City high opponenot.

Features t'ast Break Coach Tom Karam's Durfee combine has been able generally to make the opposition play itl kind of game. Durfee has been strong on defe~ throughout the waning campaign. Coyle, as a matter of fact, has been the only, club to master the Hilltop­ pen' defense consistently. Most opponentl were held to their lowest scoring output by the Karammen. The ~chievement fa all the more striking since Dur­ f~ did not have the biggest club, heIght-wise.

Coyle f~tures the fast break.

It was this weapon which led to the season's double-conquer of Durfee. ,Jim Bradshaw of Coyle has shown he can stay with any opponent while Kevin Creed-an gives the Warriors the offensive spark. He is a scoring threat anytime he gets his hands on the ball.

Lanagan's Taunton lads were eliminated in the first round competition of the Catholic scho­ lastic tourney. They bowed to Lawrence Catholic High when the latter caged a two-pointer in the final seconds of play.

Dighton-Rehoboth Triumph The Narry League was not quite so hectic. Dighton-Reho­ both captured the title with a 15-1 record with Holy Family of New Bedford, If-I, in the nmner-up spot. These teams wiJ1 !'epl'e8eDt their leape ill tIM

Changes in Mass Ceremonies on First Sunday of Lent

On the first Sunday of Advent the introduction of English in the Mass was camed out in this coun足 try. There were no structural or rubrical changes oj any note in足 volved.

The jirst real step of this type taken by the Holy See to put into actual practice the norms and prin足 ciples called for by the Constitution were taken on September 26,1964, in the form of an Instruction for the Proper Implementation of the Constitution on Sacred Liturgy.

It is this Instruction which wiU go into effect on the First Sunday of Lent and pictoral examples as shown on this page will enable con足 gregations throughout the Diocese te follow MUll em Marck 1.
