Fall River Native To Be Ordained A Montfort seminarian from the Fall River Diocese will be among five young men ordained to the priesthood by the Most, Rev. John F. Hackett, D.D., aux­ iliary Bishop of Hartford at 9:30 a.m. Saturday in St. Anthony's Church, Litchfield, Conn.

He is Rev. Robert M. Canuel,

SMM, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Theobald J. Canuel of 299 Palm­ er St., Fall River. Born in Pittsfie1d,)Jlass., Fath­ er Canuel attended parochial schools there and in Benning­ ton, Vt. before graduating from St. Anne's parish school, Fall River in 1945. That same year he began his initial studies for the priesthood at Montfort Prep­ aratory Seminary, Bay Shore, N. Y., receiving the habit of the congregation there in 1951. The following year he pro­ nounced his first religious vows at Marybrook Nov.itiate, Hart­ ford City, Ind. Since the fall of 1952, he has been stationed at St. Louis de Montfort Semin­ ary, Litchfield, for his final six years of philosophical and theo­ logical studies. Solemn Mass Following his ordination, Fr. Canuel will remain at the Litch­ field seminary for the comple­ tion of his 4th year of theology in June. At that time he will celebrate his first solemn Mass in his home parish of St. Anne's and will spend a short vaca.tion with his family. The Montfort Fathers, one of the oldest religious congrega­ tions in the Church, were founded in France in 1705 by St. Louis de Montfort. It is a community of priests and bro­ thers whose aim and work is the spreading of the "True Devo­ tion to the Blessed Virgin Mary", as written by the founder. . Since the founding of the con­ gregation more than 250 years ago, it has expanded to 12 coun­ tries, exclusive of the many foreign territories under its care. In addition to the ,Litch-' field major seminary, the Mont:" fort Fathers have several other residences in New York and in Indiana. Very Rev. Flavius Gamache, SMM, another Fall Riverite, is, rector of the Litchfield seminary.

WEST BADEN SPRINGS, (NC There is little hope for a revival of the Russian Church under communism. ac­ cording to a five-month study made by 40 theologians at West Baden College, cond,ucted by the Jesuits here. The Russian Church was the religious power in Russia be­ fore the Reds took over in 1917. Its spiritual life and chances for a revival were frankly discussed . by' the theologians. , "Since the time of Peter the Great, the Russian Church hab been dominated by the state," Thomas E. Porter, a Jesuit schol­ astic declared. "The Russians are used to getting their religion from the state. This makes any true revival difficult." Another Jesuit scholastic; Francis McGough, said: "Hu­ manly speaking there is almost­ no hope for religion in Russia. The government and educational system are totally dedicated to to atheism."

Th ri II Movies Refuse Prints NEW YORK (NC) - Anum.:. ber of low-budget motion pic­ tures are now appearing in neighborhood theaters acros~ the country before the National Legion of Decency has been giv­ en the opportunity to review them. The pictures, "thrill movies"

:with titles like "I Was a Teen

Age Frankenstein," "Motorcycle Gang" and "Sorority Girl," are' the work of an independent producing agency which has re­ fused to give full cooperation to legion reviewers ,for advan'ce screenings. An official of the legion, which has its national headquarters here, said 'that the com­ pany, AmeriCan - International, has not provided the agency with prints of some films prior to their release, "despite re­ pea,ted requests." . The legion spokesman said the producing company claimed that no advance prints were avail­ able. However, it made this claim after several of the movies ' involved had been appearing for weeks in theaters in the Midwest, prior to their New York opening. A legion spokesmliln explained that "they kept putting us off. They say they will let ~s re­ view the films,' but then before we know it the films have come out and 'we have not had the chance to review them." ~Legion officials said that the agency gets cooperation in the matter of reviewing films from all major U. S. producing and releasing co'mpanies. Less than 10 per cent -of the companies fail to cooperate. The legion is generally pro­ vided with advance prints of first-rate \ productions several weeks in advance of their pre­ miere.

It has al'ways seemed to me a mistake to identify our national government and its administration with any group

or class of the .American people. Back in Franklin Roos~velt's day,- at least for the first two terms of his office, gov­ istering government. The mis­ ,ernment seemed to, have' take rather lies in the failure been turned over, to a great to understand that ,the art of extent, to the professor, or, government is a' distinct art with in anti-Rooseveltian parlance, to ' the "brain-trusters." Nobody to­ ,day will deny, I think, that in 1932 .American go v ern m ent needed a strong dose of theoriz­ ing, experimen­ tation and in,. ventiveness. But even the m 0 st ardent Democrats to­ day will admit that some of the theories were- pretty wild back in the thirties and that some ~kated dangerously close to State So­ . eialism. Of course, we had the Supreme Court checking and nullifying the theorists on Con­ stitutional grounds, and how' ef­ fectively the Court met its re­ .ponsibilities can be estimated ,by Mr. Rooseveit's determination to "pack" it in 1937. Practical Politicians During Mr. Truman's admin­ Istration, it was the "practica~ J)9liticians" who seemed to have taken over in many areas of gov­ ernment. Too often for comfort, the precinct-politics mentality ileemed to' have a .disproportion­ ate voice in government policy. And while I think Mr. Tru­ man wi~l be rated by future his­ torians very much above aver-, age as a President (if only for his courage, decisiveness and use­ ful employment of government servants other than the political "pros"), nevertheless his reli­ ance on the loyalty to the party pros diminished public respect for both government and the office of the President. 1'oday we are witnessing what appears to be the d'ying days of the "businessman's government" of Mr. Eisenhower. Like his . predecessors, Mr. Eisenhower turned for help in 1952 to the : people whom he respected most. In his case, it was to the business community., To Mr. Eisenhower nothing ,seemed more inexorable than' that a successful businessman : could be a successful government' official. The man who could "meet a payroll" seemed to him eminently_ qualified to admin­ ister a branch of the national lovernment: Busines's and Government But as matters have turned out, the nation is begi,nning to see, I believe, that there is no" necessary corollary between suc-' cess in business and success in government, just as, in Mr.' Roosevelt's time, there was no necessary corollary between suc­ cess in the classroom and suc­ Cess in government;' or in Mr. Truman's day, between success , in professional campaign-politics and success in government. , And while the Supreme Court had to fUl}ction as the watchdog back in the thirties, the Dixon­ Yates episode ofa few years ago and,the natural gas bill and F-CC . investigations today indicate that Congress has some watch­ dog responsibilities of its own 80 far as the "businessman's lovernment" is concerned.

PHILADELPHIA (NC) - The Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes, February 11, which this year is the 100th anniversary of the first .' apparition of the Blessed ,Virgin to St. Berna&tte, also is a red letter day in the annals of the Medical Mission Sisters whose, headquarters is located here. On that date in 1936, a special instruction was issued by the Sacred Congregation for the Propagation -of the Faith in the name of Pope Pius XI), allowing members of the Medical Mission Sisters to study and practice medicine and obstetrics in their full scope as a means of safe­ guarding the lives ·of mothers and children, especially in mis­ sion areas. Prior to that time, since the 12th century, Church regulations forbade priests and nuns practice medicine without special permission. The Medical missionary Mag-' azine recalls' that at. the time the permission was granted in some countries, notably in Af­ rica, whole tribes were decreas­ ing and destined to disappear because mothers and infants

its own objectives, chief of which is to 'promote the' com­ mon. good of the entire 'nation. Obviously, government' must have an element of theorizing and experimentation. It must also depend upon the "practical politicians" to organize and con­ duct the election campaign that will bring one or the other party into effective power. And its methods must, be as "business­ l~ke" as circumstances permit.

Church Officials Approve Merger Qf Egypt and Syria in Republic BEIRUT (NC) Church authorities in the n~w Unit~d Arab Republic comprising Egypt and Syria - look. with approval on the recent merger of these middle eastern nations. Catholics in Lebanon, however, have mixed feelings about the talk in the Arab world of united republics and federations. They are fearful that their half Christian nation will be affected by the growing Arab nationaIism. Concessions made to the Church in Egypt and Syria after communist attacks have led to the approval given the new union by Catholics. Both Syria and Egypt have maintained diplomatic relations with the Holy See and Apostolic Internuncios currently reside in these nations. Lebanon, a nation with 183,000 Christians, cannot but approach the question of Arab unity with misgivings. Here the Christian churches and Moslems have found a means of cooperating on a sectarian basis. The political system has been delicately balanced on a proportional representation plan. Achieve Unity In this nation of 1,450,000, the 560,000 Catholics-including the Latin, Maronite, Byzantine, Syrian, and Armenian Rites-the 223,000 members of the Greek, Syrian and Armenian Orthodox churches, 638,OPO Moslems of the Sunnite and Shiite sects, and the 29,000 Druzes and minority sects have achieved a unity of action that' has commanded respect throughout the Arab world.' Maronite Rite Catholics comprise the largest single religious community in Lebanon and a membet· of this Rite is always elected president by the natio'n's Parliament-currently he is Camille N. Chamoun.· In his turn, the president always appoints a Sunnite Moslem to the post of prime minister. And a Shiite Moslem is always speaker of the house. Lebanese Fears It is in this context that Lebanese Christians, although ready to support the United Arab Republic, have fears that growing pressures on their nation to join the union may upset the political balar\ce to favor the Moslems. Lebanon is ready to support the United Arab Republic because she understands the Sy­ rian aspirations for indepen­ dence, which have been menaced by communist infiltration. However, the burning question In the middle east is .wheth~r Nasser is trying to shake off eommunism and Syria' is trying

to stabilize a shaky internal problem caused by communists. To the Arab world, Nasser has proven h~elf an adroit statesman and Kuwatly is ~l­ ready looked .upon as a patriot who has suffered for his nat~on. .

Anglican Bishop Blesses Tablet­ Honoring Monks . LONDON (NC) - Archbishop Geoffrey Fisher of Canterbury, Anglican Primate of England, blessed a stone tablet here hon­ oring eighteen Carthusian monks wHo were martyrs during the persecution suffered by the Church under King Henry VIII. The first martyrs of the Tudor persecution and the largest single group of religious to be martyred, Blessed John Hough­ ton and his 17 companions were put to death in various ways for refusing to take the Oath of Supremacy, acknowledging Henry VIII as head of the Church in England. After the monastery was seized, it eventually became a hospital and school. The hospital still remains and the governors of the foundation in charge of it erected the memorial tablet on the site of the altar where Blessed John Houghton offered his last Mass.

WASHINGTON (NC) - The National Council of Catholic Men has announced a staff re­ organization, personnel addi­ tions and an expansion of act iv­ ities to meet the growing needs of the lay apostolate in the United States. Martin H. Work, NCCM ex­ ecutive director, said "the inter­ est in Catholic Action has accel­ .erated to such an extent in the past Jew years that we have felt it necessary to center our efforts on the training of future lay leaders."

.... .i

By Joseph A. Breig I have. shown that evidence taken from "Who's Who in America" is utterly. inadequate to support the statements . about "American Catholic mediocrity," made by Msgr. John Tracy Ellis and Father John J. Cavanaugh. I have disposed, I think, fact that American Catholics of· the idea that the judg­ started 'at the bottom a' genera­ ment of the secular world is tion or two. ago, as hewers 'of to be taken as in any sense wood and drawers of water, and

conclusive. Let me now examine the state­ ment that, of the seven Americans i n the Pontifical Academy of Science in 1954, "only two' were products of Catholic educa­ tion." . Members 01 the Pontifical Academy are se­ lected by the ~opeand his ad­ visors on the basis of scientific competence, not their religion. American Catholics make up about one-fifth of the American population. Two are consider'­ ably . more than one-fiftii of seven. If anything, the statistic ls evidence of Catholic supe­ riority, not inferiority. Only 10 Senators I was dumbfounded by Father· Cavanaugh's accusing remark that .only· 10' of the 96, U. S. senators are Catholics.··.,. Ea'ch state'. ·has two· senators, whether its' population' .be 10 million or a half-million. Every­ body: ··knows that Catholics are concerttrated in' the populous atates: . Many states are overwhelm­ ingly not Catholic, and would not, at present, send a Catholic to the Senate if 1l'e were the greatest statesman of all time. Senator-counting is worse than meaningless in any discussion of Catholic competence. Msgr. Ellis found that Cath­ olics in graduate schools are comparatively few. It would be hardly short of miraculous .if they weren't. CathOli«:s are com­ paratively poor; they have com­ paratively large families; ·they must contribute, out of their limited 'fundl>, to Catholic edu­ eation, Catholic charities, the missions, and so on. It . would be preposterous. to expect Catholics to compete at presep.t in sending children to graduate schools. They do well to get them through college; in many cases to get them through high' school. Catholics Not Wealth,. Father Cavanaugh tells us that , of 50 business leaders named by Forbes magazine only two are Catholics, and one of those is a convert, Henry Ford II. That is to say, Catholics are not wealthy. Should they be? One of America's leading pas­ tors once remarked to me that in his city-a great metropolis-­ there was not one Catholic mil­ tionaire. He boasted of the fact, as indicating that Catholics gen­ erally valued many things more than· money, including generos­ ity to religion and charity, and justice to competitors and em­ ployes. Father Cavanaugh says fur­ ther that somebody named ChJ~S: ley Manly undertook to na~e, for a newspaper (the Chicago Tribune?) the 40 best Amedcan colleges, arid did not mention one Catholic college. ( . "This is not the plaoe," Father Cavanaugh went on, "to evalu­ ate .the criteria or the methods used by Chesley Manly." It was either the place to evaluate them, or it was the place to refrain from quoting Chesley Manley as an authority. Must Balance Picture O'ne of the things I particu:' larly' dislike about this whole affair is the huge silence about . the facts which balance the pic­ ture: I . realize that Father Cava­ naugh and Msgr. Ellis wanted to' make a point, and as I have said, I sympathize with their objec­ tives. Nevertheless ••• In all intellectual honesty, can we ignore the big-as-a··mountain

have been working their way up against tremendous odds? Should we not focus the pic­ ture by remembering (as a dra­ matic illustration) that 65 per cent of the fathers of our Amer­ .ican bishops had only an ele­ mentary school education; and only five per cent were college graduates? My own father had two·tenus in a country grade school-which would be neither here nor there, were not that a large proportion' of Catholics could tell' a similar story. I think of one of the most erudite men i know-holder of a couple of doctorates, professor in a top. technological institute, di­ rector of a government research program, nationally sought-after as a science consultant. Ria father herded pigs in Europe as a boy. The son, by the way,' W not-repeat not-in Who's Who in America.

GENEVA (NC)-Since 1945 Catholic Relief Services - Na~ tional Catholic Welfare Confer­ ence has helped 293,809 refugees establish themselves in new homes throughout the world. James J. Norris, European di­ rector for CRS-NCWC, included these figures in his annual re­ port of resettlement activities. During the past year the organi­ zation' assisted 57,681 persons, 40,369 of whom were Hungari­ ans. In the four-year period from 1953 to 1957,45,638 persons were resettled by CRS-NCWC under the U. S. Refugee Relief Act. Another 7,618 persons were aided and' resettled in Australia and Canada under the U. S. Escapee' Program. Most of these were Yugoslavs. According. to Mr. Norris, the escapee program greatly facili­ tated 'the resettlement of unac- . compa'nied youths, and other dif- . ficult cases. 'The revolving furid set up by CRS-NCWC and the International' Committee for European Migration aided 2,025 persons, including over 500 farmers from Yugoslavia's Is­ trian peninsula who emigrated to Canada and 299 Poles who wet:e moved from England to the United States. As a result of the cooperation among CRS-NCWt, the UN High Commissioner for Refu­ '., gees, the U. S. Escapee Program . . the International' Committee fo; European Migration and other vo~,!ntary' agencies; 16,000 Hun­ garIan refugees in Yugoslavia were resettled in other nations. During . the past yea'r CRS­ NCWCalso' sent large qu~ntities of food supplies to Greece which were used' by the Ministry of Education there to provide ~aily breakfast for 600,000 pupIls In elementary schools and 50­ 000 children in summ'er camp~

Pontiff to Address Meeting by Radio BRUSSELS (NC)-A Cardinal will be appointed papal legate . for two Cathohc Days at the Brussels International Exposi­ tion of 1958 and His Holiness Pope Pius XII has promised to address the meeting by radio, it was announced. The announcements were made here by Raul Heymans, commissioner general of Civitas Dei (City of God), the Vatican's pavilion at the world's fair

American People Are Hermits At Heart NEW YORK (NC)-Two Itai­ ilIn hermit monks have. arrived bere to establish their commu­ nity's first hermitage in the U. S. The two men are Don Augus­ tine Modotti and Don Aliprando Catani. They are Camaldolese monks who plan to establish a foundation of their community lIOmewhere in the western United States. From New York they will go in a few weeks to inspect possible building sites in Nebraska, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and California. "We frankly depend upon friends in America to provide a tract of land big enough. to shut the world out," pon Augustine • said. The Camaldolese are an inde­

pendent branch of the Benedic­

tines founded about 1012 by St.

Romuald. Some members live

• cenobitical (community) life, while others live as hermits. '

A Camaldolese hermitage is

• village of detached cells. The

hermits eat, sleep, work, study

and offer Mass in their cells, but

meet in church for canonical

bours.'

Differs From Italy Explaining why the Camaldo­ lese have come to the United States, Don Augustine told re­ porters: "In Italy life is very communal. An Italian who gets on a train introduces himself to his fellow-passengers and states bis business. The others do the same. Then follows a ,geqeral discussion of each one's affairs. "But in America, what do we Bee? Each traveler minds his own business. He sits alone, free and silent, reading and contem­ plating-if not Holy Scriptures, then at least the New York Times. You are hermits at heart." The Camaldolese have already received applications to join their community from about 20 Americans. The community exists at present only'in Italy.

New Bedford Scouts Assume New Ratings The second annual Blue and Gold banquet of the Cub Scout Pack I, St. Lawrence Church, New Bedf.a.;'d, took place in the New Bedford Hotel with some 250 Cubs. and their parents at­ tending. Edward H. Cloutier, an asso­ ciate professor at the New Bed­ ford Institute of Technology and Pack Committeeman, was lauded for his 25 years with Scouting in New England. The ten boys who were gradu­ ated into Boy Scouting are Rob­ ert Forand, James McQuillan, William Tatro, Wayne Sullivan, Clifford Chapman, Arthur Crow­ ley, Robert Rogers, John Do­ herty, Arthur Oliveira and Ells­ worth Sylvaria. Cubmaster Francis W. Sheehan, Scoutmas­ ter Ernest R. LeTendre and Den Chiefs Kevin F. Tripp and David Sheehan participated as leaders. Seven boys who were also in­ ducted into the Webelos Den, the Boy Scout preparatory stage, include Christopher Tounsend, Raymond LaFrance, Kevin O'Leary, Raymond Hatte, David Smith, Charles Phelan and David Whelan. George Maciel was-,..the general chairman.

Pontiff Composes' Indulgenced Prayer for National Legislators VATICAN CITY (NC) -His, Holiness Pope Pius XII has com­ posed Ii prayer fOl;, members of national parliaments 'and con­ gresses, and for politicians. . Attached to the recitation of the prayer by members of the legislative bodies and politicians is a partial indulgence of three years, under the usual condi­ tions. The text of the prayer follows: ' "Great and eternal God, Creator and Lord of all things, supreme legislator and supreme ruler, every power emanates from You and depends upon You, and those who must make laws determine in Your name that which is just or unjust, as a reflection of Your divine wis­ dom. 0 "Therefore, we, the Catholic members of parliament (con­ gress) and politicians upon whom rests the weight of a re­ sponsibility which places us at the center of the entire nation, implore Your help in a task that we intend to accept and. fulfill for the, greatest spiritual and temporal welfare of our people. , 'Healthy Realism' "Grant that we may not omit any preparation or effort in the fulfillment of this high purpose. Grant us as well that objectivity and healthy realism which -will help us' at every moment to per... ceive clearly that which seems the best. "Grant that, we may never stray from that sound impartial­ ity through which we must be mindful of the welfare of all without unjust preference. Grant that we may never be lacking in loyalty to our own people, nor in faith to the principles which we openly profess, nor in great­ ness of spirit to keep ourselves above every possible kind of corruption and petty interest. 'Resolutions Constant' "May our deliberations be calm, marked by no other pas­ sion than that which is inspired

by the holy yearning for truth; may our resolutions be constant with Your 'principles, eVlm if the service of, Your will should im­ po,se upon us sufferings and re­ minciations. May we striv~, even; in our lowliness, to imitate that rectitude . and holiness' .with which You Yourself govern and rule for Your greater. glory and the true welfare of human so­ ciety and all Your creatures. "Hear our prayer, 0 Lord, in order that Your light may never fail our minds, that Your strength .may never be lacking to our wills and that the warmth of Your charity will always fill these our hearts which must love our people with tenderness. "Withdraw from us every hu­ man ambition and every unlaw­ ful craving for wealth. Instill in us a lively, deep and ever pres­ ent sentiment for that which ·is a wholesome social order and is· in compliance with the rules of right and' equity, and may it one day be that, as a supreme re­ ward, we may enjoy Your blessed presence for all eternity, along with all those entrusted to our care. Amen."

KC in India POONA, India (NC)-India's Catholic Inquiry Center here, operated, by the Knights of Co­ lumbus, has mailed 160,000 pam­ phlets on Catholicism during its first 30 months of existence. .

Eastern Mass. Basketball Tournament, in Spotlight By Jack Kineavy 8omerse& Hi8b Scbool Coacb

Once again it's tournament basketball time. The open­ Ing phase-the New England Catholic Tourney-has al­ ready been concluded. The three day competition at Law­ rence over the weekend drew a second 13,295 total attend­ ance. Lawrence Central, the nexed the South Shore Tourney host team,. retained its Class crown. Also entered were Som­ A title - the fifth for the erset, Narry champion, Case, school since 1951 and, defending C champion, Dart­ Sacred Heart of Worcester cap­

~~~ ~::

:o,laurels with a 51-SO decision over St. Mary', of Waltham. Dave Swan, Malden Catho­ lic, and Jack Foley, 4ssump­ tion of Worces­ ter, shared the

most valuable player award. Swan posted a record high 103 points in the three game tourney. Among' those named to the Class A AllTourney team was Dennis Lynch, Archbishop Williams' fabulous . halfback, who is reliably re­ ported to be Notre Dame bound. Champion Lawrence Central and finalist Malden Catholic are also entered in the Eastern Mass­ achusetts Tourney where once again the Lawrence contingent is Class A defending champion. Also entered in A competition are Archbishop Williams and Boston College High both of whom were eliminated in the Catholic Tourney. ClaIIS B Teams St. Mary's of Waltham, final­ 1st in B at Lawrence, is scheduled , to meet North Cambridge in the , T h C B round of ec, lass . "1 ' . opening They are the only Catholic schools in this particular classi­ . fication. Three Catholic schools will compete in Class C with Sacred Heart of Newton matched against Sacred Heart of Cam­ bridge in the preliminary round. Don Bosco of Boston is the third school in this grouping. And so the stage is set for the most colorful schoolboy ex­ travaganza of the year. Twelve area teams were ,invited in the Tourney. In Class A it was pur­ fee; Bristol County champion: New Bedford and New Bedford' Vocational. Voke, the Cinderella team of the 1957 competition, advanced to the finals last, year before succumbing to Lawrence Central. Ironically, the same two teams were paired.in the initial round ibis year. Six Teams in C The area's greatest concen-, tration of strength - from the point of view of numbers, that, is - is in Class C with six teams qualified. Leading the delegation and the established pretourney favorite is undefeated Oliver Ames of North Easton. The Muscato-coached quintet, Hockamock titlist, recently an.,

1

mouth, Mansfield, and Ware­

ha~ee Cape schools, Province­ town, Orleans, and Bourne are D qualifiers. The latter two drew byes in the i,nitial pairings and thus automatically advanced to the' quarterfinals which will be played on Friday. Province­ town had a Tuesday date with Norwell at Wareham. Tourney Sidelight Even though all four 1957 Class champions are back in competition~ none was accorded the role of favorite. Somerville . High was rated the team to beat in A; undefeated Belmont, Mid­ dlesex standard bearer, rated the nod in B, and Oliver Ames, beaten by Case in the semifinals last year was expected to' go all the way this time. In D any~ thing can happen. Scholar Athletes Evidence that athletes may also be scholars is adduced from the entry of both basketball and hockey tearns representing Bos­ ton Latin and Cam1;>ridge Latin in their respective tournaments. Among the five other schools competing on a dual' front were Archbishop Williams,. Boston College High, and Malden Cath­ olic. Since, the tourney dates are almost completely· parallel, there's bound, to be the problem of divided support as the teams advance. • New Bedford High track' star, John Silveira, Mass. State 1,000­ yard champion, came within a proverbial whisker of annexing the national title Saturday in Madison Square Garden. John seemingly had the race in hand when' Jon Dante of Union High, Union, N. J., came on with a tremendous last lap kick to edge the flying Crimson ace at the tape. Silveira's 2:17,2 clocking was the fastest 'he' has ever toured the distance and is some two seconds lower than the ' existing ''Mass: record. One' 'flilai note: "Fall River's Russ Gibson may make Sarasota much earlier than' he'd ever ex­ pected. With White and Daley holding out, only catcher Haywood Sullivan was available 'to, handle the slants of somethir­ teen pitchers due to report on! Monday. That's spreading Sully a bit thin, so it's not improbable that the Sox might summon, Gipson from the rookie camp at Ocala to stand in during the emergency. Be a real break for the youngster.

All of Lourdes is preparing to receive the many pilgrims ­ many of them siCk people who will find the weather then bet­ ter for travel-who are expected to visit the shrin~ at that time. Local hotels and boarding houses have expanded" their facilities to -care for the esti­ mated six to ten 'million people expected after tHat date. The French railway system is P!Jttinlf on an ...extra l,OOO~trains from Paris and: other supple­ mentary trains from the port of Marseilles. 1,'he Lourdes airport has com: pleted its expansion and, during' three days at the opening of the centenary, more £han 1,100 per­ Ions passed through the airport.

Seven Man Basketball Squad . Wins First Place and Bid STEUBENVILLE (NC) National honors have been piling up for the College of Steubenville basketball squad-which is composed of just seven players. And they don't have a gymnasium of their own in which to practice. The squad, which is coached by Henry (Hank) Kuzma, has been invited to Madison Square Garden in New York to partici-, pate in the post-season National Invitational Tournament a dream bid for any basketball team. The invitation came after a United Press poll· of college basketball coaches named the Steubenville squad as the No. 1 small college team in the nation. The Steubenville ~arons went. on to these honors after humb­ ling a taller and larger St. Fran­ cis College team of Loretto, Pa. The Barons dealt the Frankies a 65-45 setback. It was the 'first , defeat in 14 games suffered by the Franities on their home court, and knocked the Loretto squad out of contention as, a possible selection in the NIT. The 'Frankies had appeared in, the NIT "three times. Little',' John Cl~rkwas the Barons' star:

The victory over the LorettO s'chool gave the Barons a record of 22 straight wins. They lost one game-by one point, at that -early in December. The Steubenv~lle squad prac­ tices on various courts in three communities situated in two states. For the last eight years, Steubenville High School gym­ nasium, has been their home floor, but they seldom practice on it. ' . '

Rican Migran'ts'

Continued from Page One eidence, public healtli and welfare, unemployment and education were just a few of the areas explored during the conference. .. For instance, it ,was disclosed that New York spends $50,000,-' 000 annually on Puerto Rica~ migrants, most of it for remedial programs. 'N ". I C th l" , omma a 0 ICS '/' '" The Church's program' for, these migrants goes far .beyond' , financial considerations." Ninety per cent of the Puerto Ricans are nominally, Catholic; but a drastic shortage of priests and inadequate religious education have left them, ,prey ~o Protestant evangelism, , The New York ar.chdiocese has done much to remedy these deficiencies, but valuable time has been lost in trying, to. make eontact with new arrivals. ,Now this loophole has been plugged. F th G'ld' ~ ,er I ea Msgr. Wilson told of the work o~ F<lther Gildea, a Re,dempto- r rlst from Boston, who operates a migrant information office at the San Juan' Airport. With the help of 100 volunteers', most of whom are Legion of Mary members, ~ather Gildea man~ges to interView about 40 migrants d~ilY. He is their last contact With the Catholic Church before they embark for the mainland. Since Protestants operate a ,similar office at" the airport, it can be seen how important this work is, Msgr. Wilson declared. "One major fault of Puerto Ricans," said Msgr. Wilson,. "is their natural desire 'not to of­ fend. Depending on who is questioning them about their re­ ligious affiliation, they are as likely to answer 'Protestant' r as 'Catholic.' " ' Father Gildea and his helpers put little stock in formal polite­ ne~. Each ,migrant who ,comes to his 'office is asked to fill out, • questionnaire. He is asked his aame, age, future address, dates ef Baptism and, Confirmation, date of last Communion, school­ ing, reason for going to the main­ lend; and relationships with any person with whom he is sched­ uled to stay. There is also room tor 'observations by the· inter­ viewer on the migrant's spiritual ~ndition, personal habits and leneral attitude. Priest IDformed in addition to dir~cting the ~igrant to, places on the mai~­ land wliere he can attend Masses in Spanish, join Catholic sodal and cultural clubs and avail 'hilpself of Catholic charities, Father Gildea provides the mi­ grant with rosaries, holy pic.,. tures, and clothing. With the help of a new center, emergency shelter can be provided for as ,many as .eight families. ' .. The questionnaires are for­ warded to the dIocese in which the migrant will reside, where the information is then collated in central offices such ~s Msgr. Wilson's., The final step is to" End the information ,to the

priest in whose' p'arish the ,mi­ grant will ,live, ,where direct contact is established. Commenting on the success of the 15 young, priests from the archdiocese' who spent two months hlst summer in Puerto Rico study.ing its language and customs, Msgr. Wilson said: ' "Ever.v parish to .which they hl;ldbeen assigned now has one or Il).ore Masses in Spanish."'!' ' Msgr. Wilson noted 'that 11 000 Puerto'Rican children 'have been successfully integrated "into pa-' rochial schools in the Bronx and Manhattan, and about 3;000, in the other· boroughs of the city.' ' . He denied a commonly held ~heory that' is said to influence Catholics and ,Protestants in their' 'relations' with Puerto Ricans, the theory that Puerto Ricans can be classified' into three types: Catholic, Protestant and a vast majority of un­ churched. ' "This theory is false," he de­ elared. "Most Puerto Ricans are Catholic by tradition and cul­ ture. If they cannot be' called 'practicing', Catholics in the manner ·of the continent or of America, they are still Catholic within their OWR tradition and educational opportunities." , "Puerto Ricans accept all the essentials of our Faith" he con­ cluded, "and if Ameri~an Cath­ olics are to help them to a better practice of that Faith we mustn't look upon them as . 'unchurched pagans. There can be no doubt Jhat Puerto Ricans are our brothers in Christ."

Roman Rota

Continued from Page One finai1cial burden of the proceed- , ings. , Among legal questions consid­ ered by, the Rota last year were cases' involving 'alimony pay­ ments. " , ,.. The: Rot~· reaffirmed the right ,of· alimori~anci the duty to pro­ vide it. Th,e' tribunal ruled that the :fight of. alimony was riot, ,based on the income of the hus­ band of the estranged wife but on the marriage contract itself. . The amount of alimony, the Rota ruled, should not be deter­ mined by the financial means' of the' husband" but by the couple's standard of living. The Rota further ruled that the wife_ is entitled to' alimony from the, day the case opened and not from the day the sen­ 'tence is~ rendered. Free to Appeal Each judge of the Rota must be 'a doctor of Theology ~nd Canon ,Law. Usually three 'of the judges form a "turn" '6f the Rota in hearing a case. If a party to the case is not satisfied with the decision of the '''turn'' he is free to appeal and a ne~ bench of judges considers the appeal. ' While dealing mostly with marriage cases, the Rota also considers other types of juridical problems. It is the court which . hears .the, civil and criminal cases occurring in the jurisdic­ tion "of the sovereign state' of of Vatican City. Most of the decisions of the of Rota are not appealed.
