Richard Cardinal Cushing, Archbishop of Boston, issued on the first Sunday of Lent his annual Lenten Pastoral to his flock. The Pastoral, entitled, "Call of The Council," was distributed in all Churches of the Archdiocese. Following up his Lenten Pastoral of 1961 that dealt with "secularism" or "humanism," the Cardinal sees the need of bridging the chasm that exists if man is to survive. Realizing the hold that Communism has on so much of the world's population, the Boston Prelate states that it is "small wonder that the Vicar of Christ, gazing out upon a troubled world, calls the successors of the Apostles to his side, like the Lord Himself in the upper foom." "At a time when human exisltence sinks' toward the SUbhuman, someone must come forth to reassert the claims of the supernaturaI." The Cardinal continues, "On the pile of broken treaties and uncounted betrayals, there must be raised again for the inspiration I)f mankind the authentiC' Turn to Page Eighteen

With the opening of the II Vatican Council set for October of this year, Catholics and non-Catholics alike all over the world will be asking many questions as to the nature and purpose of ecumenical councils, how many of the there haye been_ and what tra.nspired in them. We hope in this series of articles to be able to satisfy some of these querIes. Much confusion is bound to arise in the minds of men over this great event because general councils of the Church are an extraordinary event; there have been only 20 thus far, the last one being held in 1869-1870. Since the time the twentyfirst general council was announced by Pope John XXIII, several excellent, easily - readable books have been published which are available at most libraries and book stores. Among them we may cite the fol.lowing: John L. MurphY,The General Councils of The Church (Milwaukee: Bruce, 1960). Philip Hughes, The Church in Crisis (N. Y.: Hanover House, 1961). Clement Raab, The Twen'ty Ecumenical Councils of the Catholic Church (Md.: Newman, 1959).

The reading of anyone of these books will help one to appreciate the significance of the Second Vatican Council; for the present council' can be grasped only in the light of the past. An ecumenical council is a general or universal council of the Church. It derives its name from a Greek word which means the habitable world and thus it means a council which is world-wide.

Urge T~achelrs Instruct Students How tto Evahaate Motion Pictures CINCINNATI (NC) ...:.... Cincinnati's Archbishop Karl J. Alter counseled high school teachers here to teach their students how to evaluate movies. "Perhaps no other agency' is so effective in creating attitudes as the motion picture, whether in the .theater or on the television screen," he told' the teachers. They viewed two films, "Say One for Me," starring Bing Crosby and Debbie Reynolds, and "La Strada;" an' Italian movie starring Anthony Quinn: Archbishop Alter pointed out that students' attitudes and viewpoints are shaped "surreptitiously' and unconsciously" by the films they see, and that the results are "highly significant in' their later lives.'" "Our Catholic schools have a distinct responsibility," he said, "to provide their students with the criteria by which they can .evaluate motion pictures cor';' rectly." ']Engulfed lin Art' Introducing the pro g ram, Father Herman H. Kenning, assistant superintendent of archdiocesan schools, said "our students are' virtually engulfed in every kind of insidiously persuasive visual art." "Some of the leading television dramatic shows go simultaneously into more than 22 million American homes~ And the average American goes, to the movies . more than 12 times a year," he said. ~~Helping..students make a

QUITO (NC) - A leader in the Church's fight againl:lt communism in Ecuador maintains the Reds will lose despite their influence in school, field and "actory. Father Carlos Vela, S.J., says the. "outlook is optimistic" al:though two successive governments have given the world pause to wonder just how much they depended on communist help. . According to Father Vela the people of Ecuador are alarmed by a rapid rise in communist boldness during 1960 and 196'1~ , when Jose Maria Velasc~ ,Ibar~a :,was president. They have ,r~ ,acted strongly and are deter.ri1~ned to oppose ,furtpeJ; c~~~ munist gains, the Jesuit asse.rts. Propaganda Aplenty " , ,;, The army is thoroughly anti'communist, he says, and rema(ris ,the country's strongest guarant~' 'of~solidarity with the'West. '. ' Father Vela warns that the communists are determined to -discredit and eventually destroy the army. He says the communist slogan is "Without the dis-, organization of the army, the Revolution cannot proSper." This anti-army campaign has begun with the vilification of top army officers. Ecuador has no censorship of communist propaganda, either domestic or imported, and the campaign rolls along unimpeded. Tons of material arrive regularly from Cuba and other' communist countries. Drive lIs Slowing Not a single elected official of the national government is 1!1 communist. But several of the "functional" senator~lawmak­ ers selected by professional oi' business groups such as la bor, agriculture, 'industry and commerce, and education-are communists. Communists are both active and influential in university circles, among teachers in primary and high schools, and in some factories. Recently they have spread their influence to rural areas, among the Indians. But the steam has ,been taken out of the communist campaign among the Indians. Owners of large haciendas have agreed to give Indian farmhands the land on which they and their families . are living.

CINCINNATI (NC) - Parochial schools in the Cincinnati archdiocese will be open to the general public on one -or more evenings or on a Sunday afternoon th'is month.

Dearden of Detl'Oit said here. , When Pope John in January, 1959, first announced the council would be held, Archbishop Dearden said, it aroused a significant response among many non-Catholics, "even though in some instances there was misunderstanding on the part of those outside the Church of the precisc nature and pu.rpose of the council." In his sermon at the consecration of Auxiliary Bishop Charles A. Saltaka of Grand Rapids in St. Francis' Church, Archbishop Dearden said the "solemn context of this episcopal consecration is related directly to the council." He explained that an ecumenical council' brings together all the bishops of the Universal Church from all parts of the world at the express direction of the Pope. Review Church Needs "In solemn assembly they deliberate on the matters that are proposed for consideration,"

To Attend Pa rley Of Classicists Sister F l' a n c e s Sebastian, S.U.S.C., head of the Latin department at Sac l' e d Hearts Academy, Fall River, acc~m­ panied by Sister John Ehzabeth, S.U.S.C., principal, will attend the 56th annual meeting of the New England Classical Association tom 0 l' l' 0 wand Saturday at Deerfield Academy. Speakers' at the meeting will include leaders in the field of classical studies from New Eng-:land colleges and secondary schools, among them Christopher Dawson of Yale University, whose subject will be' "The Dark Shadow of Oedipus." A panel of secondary school teachers will discuss "Old Wine in New Bottles," a presentation of tl'3ditional vel'S u s new tea chi n g methods. Sister Thercse, S.N.D. of Bridgeport will be among participants.

Archbishop Dearden said. "In its broadest context they review the needs of the Church in the setting of the times. Through their deliberate action they determine upon those statements of doctrine and of action that will intensify and strengthen the life of the Church." The Archbishop said that intervention of the Holy Spirit insure's the work of the bishops will be fruitful and effective. He added that the assemblage of bishops in closest association with the Pope "gives striking evidence of the universality of the Church and at the same time of her divinely given unity."

AU$~lraliaC1S Vote Against State As~o$ffalrM:e f~B' Chu~ch Schoo~~ SYDNEY (NC)-The Australian Labor party has won elections in New South Wales, Australia's largest state, in which government assistance to church schools was an issue. . The Labor party, which prom_ ised no direct financial relief to denominational schools, won 54 of,the 104 seats in the state's Legislative Assembly, an increase of four over its previous holdings. The Democratic Labor party, which called for a direct subsidy for parents of church school students, did not win one seat. Prior to the voting, several bishops appealed for state aid to

church schools, which enroll about 25 per cent of New South Wales' students. Although the Labor party leader, Premier Robert Heffron, pledged no direct aid to private schools, he promised to double the present state' scholarships, for which Catholic school students whose parents are within a certain income range may apply. He also called for virtually ·free bus transportation for all school children who need it. Twenty-three seats were won by the Liberal party, which also promi~ed free bus transportation and called for a "revolutionary" new scholarship system about which it gave no detail~.

Diplomat Sees Danger of A"other Red Desl'ot in Latin Am~rica WASHiNGTON (NC)-A Peruvian -diplomat said here the communist takeover in Cuba has centered more world attention on Latin America than any other event in ;he last 50 years. "Not only because of:the communist despot who is in power' in Cuba today, but benause of the fact that we Latin 'Americans are not immune to another Castro," Fernando Berckmeyer, Ambassador from Peru to the United States said. , Speaking before ,400 members of'the John Carroll Society, an organization of government officials, business mid professional men of the Catholic Faith, Berckbeyer said: "It is not the sort of attention which Latin America welcolJUYP

for we realize' only too well that there still is a tendency abroad to think of the 20 Latin American republics as a homogeneous, whole. In many foreign minds an eruption in one taints all the others." The ambassador urged greater understanding by the United States and other friendly nations of "the diversities of Latin America and its people, the nature of their problems and aspirations." The present picture of the~ nations seems to be one of confusion and uncertainties, he admitted, and the "Soviet interference in our hemisphere is the, distracting picture which Latin America presents" at the openn~w decade.

ating a medical service network second only, to the govert;lment in the number of institutions. The Church had 14 hospitals with resident physicians. 22 maternity and child-care centers and 19 dispensaries. During 1961, a total of 31,000 in-patients were treated in the 1.070-bed network. The over-all number of cases treated was 171,000, and the number of babies delivered in its hospitals and clinics was 15,000. UN Aids Perhaps typical of the Catholic'medical units is the Budini (Busoga) maternity clinic, run by an African congregation, the Little Sisters of St. Francis. Close to 1,000 babies are delivered there annually. At the end of February it received from "MEMISA", lay organization in the Netherlands devoted to medical aid for the missions, a supply of equipment ranging from syringes to oxygen apparatus. Benefactors in Germany last year gave the center a fully equipped ambulance, and the Catholic uilit is now one of the busiest and most modern in the district. With the Uganda Catholic Medical Bureau serving as coo'rdinating agency, the Catholie ' hospitals and clinics have also received aid from the TT'1 ;ted Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF).

~@M~IM~@~O@(Jt)

LOUISVILLE (NC)-An "explosion" in food production will more than take care of the population explosiol1 and will lay the foundations for a lasting peace, a priest expert on farming problems said here. America's four million farm operators are the key factor in bringing about such an increase in production, said Father Edward W. O'Rourke, executive director of the National Catholic Rural Life Conference. He addresscd a chapter meeting of Te Deum, an organization devoted to Catholic adult education on current national and internationa I affairs. "The most significant new development in this age of marvels," Father O'Rourke stated, "is the fact that-for the first" time in history - we have the ability to banish hunger from the face of the earth."

BROOKLYN (NC)-The Catholic population in the area comprising the Brooklyn and Rockville Centre dioceses has increased 123 per cent since 1941, according to "The: Tablet Blue Book" published here. The book, issued by The Tablet Publishing Company, says the area's Catholic population in 1941 was 962,063 and is now 2,146,704. The Rockville Centre diocese was established in April, 1947. The 20th anniversary edition of the blue book lists over 1,300 Catholic institutions in the Brooklyn and Rockville Centre dioceses, including 366 churches, 372 -schools and 352 convents and monasteries.

action in limiting the scope of public welfare programs which would be eligible for Federal aid. Msgr. Raymond J. Gallagher, secretary of the National Conference of Catholic Charities here, made his statement in commenting on a new version of the administration's multimillion dollar welfare bill (H.R. 10606) approved by the House Ways and Means Committee. . As presented to the committee, the original bill would have given Fe'deral aid to local public welfare programs which extended their efforts to include families "likely to become" recipients of public relief. The new version strikes out this phrase and substitutes "those who request such set'vice." New Ground Msgr. Gallagher called this a "realistic limit." In previous statements, the Monsignor had noted that voluntary welfare agencies traditionally had ,accepted the responsibility for helping families "likely to become recipients" of public relief. He said that extending public welfare operations into this area would have given them "conl1iderable new ground" and put them in competition with voluntary programs, which lack the financial resources possessed by public operations.

One Billion Mark Even in these days.. of astronomical figures and high finances, the sum of one billion dollars is impressive. It should bring a sense of pride to the heart of 'every American Catholic to learn in mid-November last year, the cumulative value of the relief supplies sent overseas by the Catholic 'Relief Services-National Catholic Welfare Conference passed the one billion dollar value mark. The program began, operating in 1943. Almost half the' supplies were shipped during the past five years. During last year, for example, a shipment of relief sup'plies for overseas left some United States port on an average of every four and one half hours. The CRS-NCWC carries out its program of charity in sixty-seven countries; emergency and disaster help is given and women and children of every race and creed and age. This program, supported by the Catholics of the United States, is the largest overseas voluntary relief agency. Last year the program fed more than twenty-eight million persons. There are full-scale assistance programs going on in sixtysE!ven countries; emergency and disaster help is given whenever and wherever the need arises; morel self-help programs are being inaugurated; and the resettlement and in:' tegration of refugees is another vital work. .. This is charity at its best. And it is accomplished through the generosity of American Catholics, giving in /" the Thanksgiving Clothing Drive and in the Annilal Laetare Sunday contributions to the Bishops' Relief Fu.nd.

Invidious Comparisons A distraught English,mother wrote to the great London newspaper, The Times, giving, the real parental objection to television. She wrote' that the real' danger was not crime or violence, however, horrible these might be and however vicious their influeI)ce on the young. The real danger, she maintains, comes from the commercials that' show' "hand-picked beautiful mothers" who are always calm and kind and efficient. These unbelievably wonderful persons show cooking skills and demonstrate horne appliances that always make the real mothers and acutal homes look shabby and shoddy and inefficient by comparison. This, states the letter-writing mother, is the r~al dan-' ger of television: the invidious c~mparisons that the com, mercials raise in the minds of children. The argument, at any rate, is a'new one, isn't it,? And it does contain much merit. . Children who sit mesmerized by the cathode tube and glued to its every flicker, accepting with uncritical minds whatever it presents in whatever way presented, run the real danger of accepting the television world and television people as reality. Their own modest lived-in homes andit must be admitted - sometimes far from cool and efficient mothers show up badly. What competition can the reaJ ,arents give these glamorous creatures of the makelotp artist? , Perhaps there is only one way to offset this danger.' The old principle of "If you' can't lick them, join them" might apply. And real live mothers in all too real homes might try imitating the calmness and poise of the' television people. It could ,be ,revolutionary.

the Resurrection directs our lenten retreat I again toward that Easter eve'nt.

TOMORROW-Friday, Second Week in Lent. Both Reading and Gospel teach of the repection of God's messengers by man. The point is that despite our rejections of His Word and His approach, He comes and comes 'again. Hi:.. love never fails. It is steadfast. And, even though His Son is announced in the Gospel parable as His final gesture, in the Church His Son continues to come to us in Word and sacrament, again and again in spite of the fact that we also reject Him freqilently. Lent is a time for sorrow for sin, for penance, but also for thanksgiving in the knowledge ',that we are as humanly power. less to lose His mercy as we are to merit it.

SATURDAY-Second Week in Lent. The prodigal son of the , Gospel and the story of Jacob . and Esau in the Reading both illustrate the gratuitousnesss of God's mercy, of His forgiving love. It ic not according to our deserts that He rewards us, but according to His good pleasure and perfect love. We pray that our penance may open our hearts to Him and find new life (Collect) .

So the great prayer of every Mass, the Eucharistic prayer or canon, even in a penitential season, begins "Sursum, corda," "Lift up your hearts."

TUESDAY - Third Week ill Lent. While more serious sins require the celebration of an auxiliary sacrament, Penance, every celebration of the liturgy includes an absolution, a proclamatio!1 of forgiveness. Our sins, far from keeping us from the worship of God, draws us to it. To the poverty of our failures and falls, God, offers the never ending supply of oil of the first Reading. And in the Gospel Jesus teaches a forgiveness that surpasses 'all natural limits and bounds. ' WEDNESDAY-Third Week in Lent.. The 'Christian must be careful lest 'he fall into a kind of formalism of sin. It is easy to follow the hypocrites condemned in the Gospel today and to identify sin with' social manners and social mores. Sin, J esu's teaches, is a matter . of the human heart and will, of , the interior of man, much more' than of merely the external act. And virtue's fidelity is to God's commandmen't (first Reading), rather than to human social pat'terns and customs and folk ways.

S&' Williams Church-Fall Rivei' What is the name of the long gold cane that the bishop carries at some ceremonies? Does it have some use, 01' did it ever have any function? The staff which the bishop carries on ceremonies is called the CROSIER or CROZIER. The name is not derived fro m cross, as many mistakenly believe, ilut' from the Latin "crocia" meaning "crook", 'referring to the hook or staff. The crosier is usually about five feet ten inches long or about the height of the average man. The pastoral staff, as it sometimes is called, is presented to the bishop at his consecration. It has no functional purpose, but is symbolic; it is the symbol of the bishop's authority.

:A pamphlet that I have men-

tions "doxology", but doesn't explain it. Would 'you explain it? DOXOLOGY means a prayer of glory. The "Gloria in Excelsis" recited during the Mass is called the greater doxology; the prayer "Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be world without end Amen" is known as the lesser doxology.

Council

Continued from Page One required to participate. In addition to diocesan Bishops, the following are members of the council: patriarchs, cardinals, even though they be not bishops, superior generals of exempt religious orders, the abbot primate and abbots general of monastic congregations and prelates who 'have jurisdiction over a district of their own. Such an imposing list of members from all over the world indicates that the councH. is universal. Holy Father Presides , But it is not just the number of, 'participants that makes a council ecumenical because ill the past numbers have varied from as few as 100 to as many as 1,000 and, in some cases, the Bishops have been only from the East. ' A council would be no less ecumenical if only 50 out of 2,000 possible members would attend, Neither is the length of time that the council lasts what constitutes it as ecumenical; some have . taken several years, while others have been completed but in a relatively few days. Neither is external solemnity or splendor ,what is important; for some, m the past, have been conducted with little spectacle. It is Holy Mother Church herself in the person of the Pope who makes it clear that a particular council is to be general and not merely local. Today there are definite laws of the Church in the Code of Canon Law governing the requirements for a general council, which tells us that no council can be held as ecumenical which is not convoked by the Holy Father and that it is the Holy Father, either personally or through a representative, who presides over all ecumenical 'council. Confirms Decrees Further, the Holy Father is to determine what matters are to be treated; it is he who is t8 transfer a council from one pl<!ce to another, if necessary, to suspend or dissolve it and to confirm its decrees. In past centuries, the law was not so clear, so many of these present technical requirements varied. Disti,.,r;t from general councils Turn to Page Seven

Joseph's parish, Fall River, will be up to date on Diocesan news If Rev. George E. Sullivan, pas·tor, has anything to say about it. A .recent issue of St. Joseph's parish bulletin offered a free Anchor subscription to any parish boy or girl in the service. To date, says Father Sullivan, some eight families have accepted the offer. Pretty soon the song may be: From the halls of Montezuma To the- shores of Tripoli, Where'er Fall River youngsters go The Anchor too you'll see.

Continued from Page Six are diocesan synods convened by the Bishop of a diocese; these are" not· really councils because the Bishop alone is the legislator. Neither are the provincial councils of bishop of a particular' ecclesiastical province or the plenary councils (e. g. three Plenary Councils of Baltimore from 18521884) involving several ecclesi'astical provinces and presided over by a papal legate the same as ecumenical councils; for they are not concerned with the Church as world-wide, but only In their own area. Similarly the annual Bishops' meeting held in Washington differs from general councils because they do not make laws in the strict sense. InfaHib!e Teaching

The purpose of the gathering of Bishops and other prelates summoned by the Holy Father in an ecumencal council is to discuss and settle questions of doctrine and discipline affecting the whole Church. These gatherings are characterized by much deliberation and discussion before decrees are issued. Many ecclesiastical scholars are called to assist the Bishops in the discussion of the agenda; these scholars have no voice in the council as such but merely serve as consultants or advisors. ' The Bishops, in their capacity as official teachers and judges, have the right to air their views on the questions to be treated; for they constitute the mind of the Church in action in the process of formulating decrees. Much time and effort is spent in .arriving at precise wording for. these decrees, which must' then be submitted for confirmation by the Pope. After papal confirmation these decrees become part'Qf the solemn infallible teaching of the Church. General councils are not strictly necessary inasmuch as, the Pope can personally make dogmatic definitions under the influence of the Holy Spirit; but the Holy Father does not define doctrines, in practice, relyi~g 'solely on himself. Even thougb the agreement of the Church is not required for the infallibility of a papal definition, the Pope, using natural prudence in addition to the influence of the Holy Spirit, always employs mean~ to obtain' the agreement of .the Church. Bishops are, consulted all over the world and the general beliefs of the faithful are explored before solemn proclamations issue forth from the Holy See. Doctrinal Matters Sometimes doctrinal questions are so complex and disputed among Catholics or errors are so pernicious that the Holy Father uses an extraordinary means to ascertain the mind of the Church. This extraordinary means is the ecumenical council, whose func. tion it 'is to carefully consider the arguments of theologians and scholars and formulate the mind of the Church in doctrinal and disciplinary matters. The ecumenical council is an extraordinary means precisely because they meet rarely and usually only in connection with some great crisis in the life of the Church.

HARTFORD (NC)' - A priest-lawyer advised here that advocates of Federal aid for nonpublic schools should be "deeply conscious" of three truths "which may well- be overlooked. in the heat of the ongoing controversy." In an' address before members of the St. Joseph Cathedral parish Holy Name Society, Father Robert F. Drinan, S.J., made these points:' 1. "All advocates of aid to nonpublic schools should have and should express confidence that the American people will be fair with regard to the claim of the' parents of nonpublie school children." 2. "Although persuasion tends to merge into pressure, there is a point beyond which any group in a democratic society may not go in insisting that its claim be recognized." 3. "The spirit of tolerance, charity and candor must always be maintained in the discussion of the Church-State problem. " Reexamine Policy Father Drinan, dean of Boston College law school, said "the-exposure which Catholic schools had last year has brought to the nation an unparalleled opportunity to reexamine the basic public policy which this nation desires to follow if the Federal .government decides to change a fundamental policy and have the tJ:nited States government enter the area of financing local schools." He said the Catholic requee't . for participation in Federal aid to education rests on three principal arguments: parental righfs, the free exercise of religion, and the pluralistic nature of U. S. society. "In all the literature and discussions of Federal aid it appears that the argument based on parental rights is the fountainhead and cornerstone of the Catholic position. It must also be said, however, that it seems to be less persuasive with non-Catholic,S than any other argument," Father Drinan -said. ,

congregation had acquired its monastery at Spring and Adams Streets, Fairhaven, through Very Rev. Hugh J. Smyth, pastor of· St. Lawrence Church, New Bedford. The trio of priests moved into the home on May 11, 1905. It is now headquarters of the Sacred Hearts Fathers in the United. States. The founding by the congregation of St. Joseph's Church in Fairhaven set the pace for the establishment of many new parishes by the Fathers in New Bedford, Fairhaven and Cape Cod.' Less than 48 hours after they arrived in Fairhaven, -the 'first three. priests w ere sayIng Masses in Phoenix Hall, Center and Main Streets. In the early days there were less than 50 people in the con'gregation. The hall was used for three Sundays but beginning 'June 11, 1905 Mass was offered at the monastery. At each Mass ,sermons were preached in Ertg1ish, French and Portuguese. The first baptism took place at the monastery June 5, 1905, and the first marriage and the first funeral took place on the sa~e day-July 1, 1905.

WASHINGTON (NC)-PreSi-. dent Kennedy said here at Q prl.!yer breakfast that religion "is the basis of the issue" separat-ingthe U. S. from its adversaries. The PresideI;lt told the men'liil ,breakfast, attended by leading government, military anddiplomatic officials, that religion kJ not an instrument of the cold war. "Rather" he said "it is t1lJe basis of the issue' ~hich separates us from those who makG themselves our adversary." The President also drew m contrast between the attitude of U. 'S. austronaut Lt. Col. John H. Glenn Jr. and that of Soviet cOl!monaut Maj. Gherman Titov. Lauds Col. Glenn The President noted that ~ Glenn stated recently that he had made his .peace with God years before his space flight. But Titov, Mr., Kennedy re.called, said his space flight made him realize the wonders of tmi communist system. "I prefer Col. Glenn's BJi)a swer," said the President, "because I thought it was so solidly based, in his 'own life, in his activities in his church, and I think reflects a quality which we like to believe, and I think we can believe, is much a part of our heritage." The President then quoted Abraham Lincoln as saying: "I believe there is a God. I see the storm coming and I believe He has a hand in it. If He has a part and place for me, I believe that I am ready." In his own words, the Pres}.. dent stated: "We see the storm coming, and we believe He has a hand in it, ;md if He has iii place and a part for us, I believe that we are ready."

for More Laity in Socia~ Justice Work

PROVIDENCE (NC) - Msgr~ George C. Higgins asked here that more Catholic lay people "awaken from slumber" and make sacrifices to better the society' around them. &sks Three Sacrifices The Monsignor suggested three "sacrifices of particular importance" that Catholic men and women can make as the beginiiirig of their effort to meet papal calls for social action. They are: -:-l!:liminate racial prejudice. "Are we, ready to demonstrate, in our casual contacts with Negroes as well as in our attitude

on public policies, that we do honestly and sincerely and unreservedly believe that the Negro is equal to the rest of us in the sight of God in every last essential?" -Defend the rights of the poor and of the workingman. "We shall be called upon to asslime the initiative in working for the fullest possible advancements of these rights." -Put aside selfish nationalism. ,,~ we prepared to open our ports and our hearts and our homes to the dispossessed and homeless families of Europe amd Asia?"

ROCKFORD (NC)-The firs~ Catholic college in the Rockford diocese, a four-year liberal arts institution for women, is being planned by the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur of Cincinnati.

Although the size of the student body has not been fully determined yet, Sister Agnes said accommodation for some 500 students probably would be provided. She said the decision to build the college here in Illinois terminated an intensive study of possible sites and ciUes and dioceses throughout the Midwest from Michigan to Arizona.

DENVER (!'fC) - Lay persons who Jive a Christian life can provide a powerful impetus for increased religious vocations,according to an article in the vocations issue of the Register. The article in the current national Catholic weekly newspaper points out that there is not only a critical shortage of priests, Brothers and Sisters but also of laity WllO live their Faith in everyday life. Entitle "Everyone Has a Vocation," the article states: Growing Concern "There is a growing concern to realize the complementary function of the laity and the Religious. The Church needs the laity to bring Christ to the office, to the factory, to the ball park, and wherever men gather. Their vocation is to radiate their Faith in the exercise of their profession." , Stating that there is "a shortage of people willing to live the vocations of a Christian life," the article adds: "Once the challenge of life is generally accepted by the laity, it will not be long before the seminaries and noviti,. ates will be filled to overflowing." ,

MIAMI (NC) -Almost 8,000 unaccompanied Cuban children fleeing their homeland have been aided in the United States by a nationwide program conducted by a Miami priest with F!,!deral government cooperation. Father Byran O. Walsh, Miami diocesan director of Catholic Charities, has' since the latter part of 1960 directed a program of care for unaccompanied refUgee children with the support of the U. S. Departments of Justice, State and Health, Education and Welfare. Father Walsh and other social workers from the Miami Catholic Welfare Bureau were 'among the first to observe the arrival of the unaccompanied children when the influx of refugees began two years ago. Majority Catholics Seeing the need for an organized program of care for the children, Fatber Walsh contacted the Dade County Welfare Planning Council and late in 1960 met with representatives' of all public and private child welfare agencies iQ Miami. ,As a result, the planning council appealed to the Federal government for funds to support a program of care for the boys and girls by the agencies of their respective faiths. Federal funds w:ere supplied. ,Since nearly 90 per cent of the children are Catholic, the main burden of the program has fallen upon the local Catholic agency and others cooperatipg with it.

In addition to the Vocation Mass in which Bishop Stang students will join students of neighboring schools at St. Anthony on March 27, assembly programs have been arranged to present and explain to the students the meaning of the Religious Vocation to the Priesthood, the Brotherhood, and the Sisterhood, not only that they may 'appreciate the possibility of a vocation themselves, but that they may' appreciate a vocation with which God may bless the families which they will establish. Speakers On Tuesday, March 13, the formal program began with a 'movie on the Diocesan Priesthood shown to the boys and an assembly for all the g,irls. Principal speaker at the assembly was Sister Vincent de Paul" S.N.D., teacher of art at Emmanuel College, Boston, and at Notre Dame Novitiate, Waltham. Accompanying her were three young religious from the Provincial House, who briefly explained the life of a Postulant, a Novice, and a Junior professed Sister. At a panel, discussion questions were welcomed from the floor. On Monday, March 19, the . Junior girls were addressed by . the Reverend John P. Driscoll, and the Sophomore and Junior boys by Rev. Richard P. Demers. The end of March will certainly find all ~ishop Stang students in tune with the mind of the Church to appreciate and pray ' "for religious vocations.

One wonders if too much a.ttention is not paid tD politics. The major portion of newscasting and the press are devotecll to what one politician and one country say of another. James lFreeman Clarke once remarked: "A politician thinks of the next election; a statesman, thinks of the next generation.;' Whether this be true or not, it Is generally assumed' that politics, In one way or another, determines the world.

Neither s h 0 r t stories nor novelIas they are mor~ like frag.... ments of legend charged with the supernatural. Each makes a point of contemporary significance but all are set in the rathe; remote past. :.Karl St~n supplies' an introduction to this volume. He points out that Miss von Ie Fort in fiction "deals-as far as one can summarize at all-with the Mystical Body, the hidden Church, and the Church in history, and the mystery of womanhood." .

the royal assent. This he will obtain through the marquise. But a complication develops. The marquise, completely unconcerned about religion, .is _concerned about effecting removal of the censure incurred because of her adulterous relationship with the king. Contemptuous of the Church, she still wants to use it to secure a semblance of respectability. She therefore cannot ~ondone clemency to heretics.. There is a confrontation, somewhat melodramatic, and a posing of issues and viewpoints, somewhat declamatory, from which proceeds the conclusion of the tale. The conclusion limps, but an important truth has been conveyed·. The sincere heretic is more to be respected than the cynical trifler with the Faith; and bad means are indefensible in defense of a good cause: The rights· of conscience have ~o be granted; to infringe upon them is to serve truth ill. ,I , 'lLess Successful Somewhat less successful is the story from which the book takes its title, "The Judgement of the Se·a."

Pick up the Old Testament and read its historical books. What does one find? Was it the Prime Mtnister of Babylon, the Secretary of the Chaldean State or the Dictator of the Assyrian Union who were the causes of wars and rumors of wars? Occa:' sions, certainly, but not causes. What determined peace to a great extent was the spiritual condition of Israel. When it obeyed the Law of God,.it was at peace; when dishonesty, the breaking up of family, civil discord and adultery arose, trouble began. Did not God say that'He would,punish them in war by making Assyria the "rod and staff of His anger"? Time and, again Israel pulled down 'the pillars' of its own, house and brought ruin upon its own head. 'True, war was the act of man, .but it was the judgment of God. A man who does not eat suffers a headache, but God does not send the headache by an explicit desire. He has simply made it the law of nature that we should eat; by disobeying, we bring discomfort upon ourselves.

The first, last Monday, c~lled the "secret consistory," was that in which the Pope formally announced the names of the 10 cardinals-designate to the elder cardinals. In the act of their being named they were created cardinals. The second preliminary consistory, held yesterday, called the "sem~-public consistory," was for the imposition of the cardinalatial red biretta on the heads of eight of the newly created cardinals. " Two of the new cardinalsGiovanni Panico, Apostolic Nun':' cio to Portugal, and Ildebrando Antoniutti, Apostolic Nuncio to Spain-received their red birettas from the heads of state of' those nations in keeping with a traditional privilege.

The Church is the new ][srael, the fellowship of those who believe in Redemption and the prolongation of Christ in nRns Mystical Body.

Could not Russia be the "rod and staff" of God's anger, just as Assyria was in the Old Testament? llf we allow ·the break-Up of family, if we refuse to discipline' OUR' children, if we are indifferent to the hungry and poor of the , world, if we will not educaie priests in Africa and Asia-in a word, if we deny aid to the nRoly Father to bring Christ to the dark places of the world~al'e we not failing to perform our ' duty and thus endangering the world?

Prelate Urges Labor, Management To Assist Emerging Nations BUFFALO (NC)-Leaders of labor and management should bury their past differences and cooperate to aid the cause of free men throughout the world, Auxiliary Bishop Leo R. Smith of Buffalo said here. The Bishop said at the graduation dinner of the Buffalo Diocesan Labor College that assistance to the peoples of emerging nations should be everybody's concern. "We should think of the greater thing and stop playing the old record of past labormanagement battles, for if we don't help these emerging peoples, the communists will," the Bishop stated. U. S. Leader He said the rest of the free world looks to the U. S. as its leader, and this country should give other free nations moral guidance based on the national law, as well as the benefit of its scientific advances. Father James J. McGinley, S.J., president of Canisius College, urged Catholics to put into practice the tenets of papal social encyclicals.

University Planning $10 Million Expansion in Next Two Years JAMAICA (NC) - St. John's University will construct within the next two years three new buildings and an athletic stadium at a cost of 10 million dollars. The program calls for building a university library, an administration building and a classroom building. In announcing the move, Father Edward J. Burke, C.M., university !1resident, said studi~s indicate that enrollment at the Long Island school is expected to increase by at least 30 per cent in the next two-and-a-half years. Second Larg~st The Vincentian school is now the largest Catholic university in the Middle Atlantic States and the second largest in the nation, with almost 11,000 students. The . University oJ Detroit is the largest, with about 13,000.

The new buildings and freeing classrooms now used for admin-. istrative offices, will give the university 75 new classrooms for 4,130 additional students. The structures will be added to the four buildings already on the Jamaica campus, built at a cost of 16 million dollars. The earlier projects, which include the liberal arts building, the science-pharmacy building, are "completely debt free," Father Burke·said. The library will have an ultimate capacity of a million volumes. It and the administration building will be alr-conditioned. The university's master plan calls for the completion of 13 buildings on the Jamaica campus by 1970, the sch~ol's 100th anniversary.

at the New York International Airport, Idlewild. The Port Authority of New York announced approval of the designs for the chapels, described . as being of "varied but related form, with stone exterior." The chapels will be located on one-acre sites along a 655-foot lagoon opposite the airport's International Arrival Building. The area will be called Chapel Plaza. The new Catholic chapel will replace the present Catholic chapel, Our Lady of the Skies, which was built in 1953. An average of 1,500 per~ons attend the five Sunday Masses offered each week at the chapel. It will remain in use until the new chapel is completed and then will be razed. Construction of the chapels is being opposed by t' ~ Freethinkers of America, New York, on the grounds that use of public property for the project violates separation of Church and State. The Port Authority has said it is renting the one-acre plots at the standard rate of $1,300 a year. The chapels will be constructed by the three faiths themselves. A Freethinkers suit against the project was dismissed by the state Supreme Court. An appeal has been entered in the Appellate-Division.

By Msgr. George G. JH[iggins Director, NCWC Social Action Department

Washington, like. the capital of every other I!ation with a democratic f<;>rm of government, is a happy hunting ground for lobbyists representing not only labor and management but a great variety of other special interest groups as, well. The exact their time on legislative work number of lobbyist~ in and in the future some of them, Washington at any given according to the Brookings retime is a matter of conjec- port, "will work .primarily on

The number of lobbyists in these three cate~ gories has increased by leaps and bounds during the past quarter of a century, and the chances are it will continue to grow at a steap.y pace for the indefiriite future. . Brookings Study This forecast, in the specific case of individual company or business representa~ives, is corroborated by a study 'entitled "The Business Representative in Washington" published recently by the Brookings Institution, an independent organization devoted to nonpartisan research, education, and publication. in economics, government, forelgn policy and the social sciences generally. This study-a' report on the round-table discussions of 19 Washington business representatives on the nature and scope of their job as they see it-says that about 130 of the country's 200 biggest manufacturing companies have already established Washington offices and predicts that many others can be expected to follow suit:: "It ic; probably," the Brookings study says, "that most large companies will have Washington offices and that many medium sized or even smaller companies will also have offices if they do 'an appreciable ,volume of work for the government. The offices themselves will probably b~ larger than those of today, perhaps averaging 10 people, not counting clerical personneL" "\Jotes Dangers involved Not all business representatives in Washington are lobbyists in the technical sense of the word, but presumably almost all of them spend at least part of

The same thing can be said about the Washington representatives of unions and trade associations, Their number is steadily increasing, and more and more of their time is being devoted to lobbying, The Brookings report takes note of the dangers involved in ' the growth of lobbying in Washington but concludes that these dangers can be effectively counteracted. The report says, that "there will be countervailing forces at work" (the force of other lobbies, for example) and that "a considerable group of politicians and others will be vocally critical of ~rresponsible conduct," Two-Way Process Furtherinore, the report points out, lobbying is more or less inevitable under our form of govARTIST WITH MISSION: Patsy Bevilacqua, spends ernment, and' it would be unbetter than 40, hours a week, in his basement studio in realistic and undesirable to try to do away with it or even to try Girard, Ohio, painting seascapes, landscapes, and statues-the latter for parish churches in the area.

for pupils of private schools will "fight to the finish" for its objective, its c~airman said. The statement was made by James P. Cox of Jefferson City, chairman of the Missouri Committee for Equal School Bus Transporta tion. · Some 60 delegates attended the organization's meeting here, and the majority of them were said to be Catholic parents. Plan Campaign The organization issued a statement saying ,its purpose is to "spend its time, efforts and jinances calling upon the General Assembly to pass legislation to give private and paro-' chial school children the same type of bus transportation given public school children," Cox said that "a fight to the finish is planned and an effort to raise money for the campaign will begin immediately," The committee adopted the slogan "Bucks for Buses." ' Cox said that a speakers' bureau will be set up and the committee will employ a lobbyist. Luth'erans Agree "We have no argument with the public school system," he said. "If we are successful, it won't cost I;I1uch more money to the state because the majority of ·the school buses are passing many of our doors now." Rev. Walter Niedner, pastor of Trinity Lutheran church here, said that Lutherans are in sympathy with the committee's cause. Atty. Gen. Thomas F. Eagleton has ruled that because of a 1953 Supreme Court decision, private school children cannot be given bus transportation by the state under Missouri's constitution. His' opinion is the same as that handed down by Gov. M'- Dalton when lie was attorney general.

Both Connec~ ticut tea m s '. looked impres{.:, sive en route to comparatively easy quarterfinal round' victories. Hartford Public, whose Eddie Griffin has been called the best schoolboy player to show in the Garden this year, downed Pittsfield High, Western Mass. titlists, 78-65, in the tourney opener. Bulkeley, playing in the feature game against Tech champion Rindge Tech, turned in an astounding 53-31 upset victory. Rindge with three starters measuring 6-5 held a tremendous height advantage over Bulkeley which is the shortest team In years to wear Connecticut spangles. The Nutmeggers, however, led by the brilliant floor generalship of Gene Reilly, put on a ball control exhibition that completely disconcerted Rindge Tech. Bulkeley's modus operandi met with the general disapproval of the partisan Greater Boston crowd, but coach Lou Bazzano summed it up tersely in a post game comment, "We play to win." It looks very much like another All-Connecticut final for Saturday night. In the event this occurs, it'll mark the fourth meeting between' Public and Bulkeley with the latter still looking for its first win. How closely matched are they? A total of seven points in the three games spelled the difference. THe first clash was a 67-65 affair, the second, 65-63. Public then won the big one, the State title by a whopping three point margin, 67-64. Should they collide again, it just may be Bulkeley's night. Since the resumption of the Tourney in 1944 after a brief one year hiatus due to war-time restrictions, Maine has annexed one title, Massachusetts, three. The rest have been all Connecticut. The last Mass. team to win the crown was the 1956 Durfee quintet which defeated Westerly, R.I., 53-43. This was the second N.E. championship for the Hilltoppers whose earlier victory came in 1948, a 41-30 decision over Hillhouse of New Haven, Conn. Defending champion this year is Hartford Public and in striving for a second successive title they'll attempt to emulate the Meriden, Conn. teams of 1935 and '36 and the Hilhouse editions of '45 and '46. Hillhouse, incidentally, has compiled a fan.

Connecticut teams from the regional competition after this year means the end of the tourney in its present format. Whether some similar post-season invitational will be established or whether states will conclude with their state 'play-oUs remains to be determined. There is some sentilll,ent for both proposals. On the local scene, the Fourth Annual CYO Diocesan Tourney is scheduled to get underway on Sunday afternoon at CYO Hall, Fall River. The competitionhli's proved a real attraction for parish teams throughout the Diocese and this year' is no exception. The p~irings for the initial round, unannounced as of this writing, are expected to be released shortly by Tourney Director Paul Borkman. ESCIT at Hand Coming up one week hence is the Eastern States' Catholic .Invitational Tournament. The field of eight entries has been completed with the acceptance of La Salle and All Hallows, both of New York. The three-day tourney will commence on Thursday, March 29 and conclude the following Saturday. Year after year this competition reflects high school ball at its very best. Going down the rosters of past All-Star teams is like reading Who's Who is the N.B.A. Many present collegians familiar to hoop fans were in action in ESCIT not long ago. Vin Ernst and John Thompson of Providence College appeared respectively with St. Aloysius of Jersey City, N. J. and Archbishop Carroll of Washington, D; C. The Tourney is once again under, the general chairmanship of the very capable F. Herman Rathkamp who has arranged an interesting agenda for the visiting teams' during their stay in the historic city of Newport. Area representation for the Tourney are Ray Ready of Somerset and Raoul Gagnon of Swansea. Congratulations are due Bob Higginbottom of Attleboro, Skippy.

field is now in his second year at Boston College, where he' has given studies full preference over athletics. Bob, a fine all-around athlete, played four years of baseball, basketball and football at Coyle. While ,he is concentrating on scholl'\stics at BC and has ,qo~ beeJ:} .able to yield to college athletics with their time-consuming practice sessions,. Bob,is still an avid, active sports enthusiast. Semi Pro Gridder , A popular youth, the Mansfield athlete stands 5-10 and weighs a solid 180 pounds. He is presently undecided whether or not to go out for the varsity baseball squad this season at Boston College, but a glance at his credentials shows he would probably make the team with little difficulty. Classy Batting Average The son of Mr. and Mrs. William Fioretti of 249 Bay Street, Bob is currently player-coach of the St. Mary Church, Mansfield, basketball squad in his area's CYO hoop league. Over the last two Summers Bob has played CYO baseball, while last Fall he again donned his football pads and played the grid sport in Boston's semi-pro Park League. A centerfielder, Bab bats and throws left-handed and has the ability to stroke the long ball with consistency. His last two years at Coyle saw him maintain a batting average around the .350 mark, which attests to his prowess at the plate. The all-around athlete enjoys playing the centerfield position and can cover a lot of ground with tremendous bursts of speed. He also possesses another essential ingredient,' a fine throwing arm. A 1960 Coyle High graduate, Bob played that Summer with Norton of the CYO Suburban League. Last year he cavorted in center for the diamond squad from his parish, St. Mary Church, in the area CYO league. Majoring in Math A halfback while with Warrior gridiron teams, Bob last Fall

played out of the same slot in the Boston semi-pro loop. He is a reliable ball carrier and with his powerful drives, is frequently called upon in "must'.' situations. Bob is majoring in math at the Jesuit-operated college in Newton. Asked what he calls his hobbies, he replied, "Studying takes up most of my time these days," but added he plays golf whenever the opportunity presents itself and enjoys most othei' sports. Math, philospohy, theology, history, English a'nd German ate Bob's subjects this semester at Boston College. While he is presently undecided on a definite career after college, the Mans." field youth said he would like to attend graduate school and might possibly teach. Commutes to Newton A co~muting stUdent, Bob makes the long haul into Newton daily. This is another factor that would make collegiate athletics difficult in his particular case. One of three boys in his family, Bob has two brothers who are now attending Coyle, William, a senior, and Paul, a freshman. . The Mansfield youth could easily call' Boston his second home, since he is in the Hub almost every day, year-round. Bob works in Boston Summers at a furniture store with his father, helping to defray the costs of his college expenses. Bob, with his keen talent and liking for sports, will be in such circles both as a player and an observer throughout his college days. And should the strong left-handed slugger take to the playing field with the BC Eaglell, look for him to play a starring role.

"Today Pope Gregory rode in solemn procession through the streets of Rome to the station church of St. Sabina. When he reached the top: of the Aventine Hill, his ARMAGH (NC) - John horse's hoof-beats were swallowed up in the echoing chant of a -thousand voices'.

John Bruere, pastor of Calvary Presbyterian Church . -just across the street from, St. Agnes Church wHere Bishop Begin was pastor-said he realized the message would not change the Pope's mind about . the appointment but he just wanted to tell him how the Protestants of Cleveland felt about the former Auxiliary Bishop of Cleveland. VVorked Together' The Rev. Mr. Bruere and .-t Bishop Begin worked together for 15 years, trying to improve condi tions in their area, a blighted neighborhood known as the Hough Area. The minister said he "did all the talking" and Bishop Begin "did all the work." Bishop Begin has appeared in the pulpit of Calvary Presbyterian Church at neighborhood mass meetings and the Rev. Mr. Bruere has spoken 'to meetings at 51. Agnes Hall. ' "Another thing," said the minIster. "I'm going to miss those Friday fish dinners at the St. Agnes rectory and I bet he's going to miss those Presbyterian church bells that play hymns every noon."

'n'ot only during Lent but also on aU.' the major feast' days. On the ,great fea'sts, 9! the ·Ch.ur~h year, 'the "stations" were at the seven 'major churches of the city, since 'these' were the only' edifices large enough to accommodate the great nurribers· of the faithful 'who attended. At present, the 'church calendar lists stational devotions, for 87 days of the year. The s e are· disttibuted among 44 churches of the Eternal City. The spirit of this ,ancient devotion is not limited to Rome alone. In Ireland, for example, each, rural pastor celebrates Mass once or twice a year in ' selected homes of his .parish. "Having the stations," as it is called, is a privilege that each parishioner receives in turn. And, indeed, in every parish of the Catholic world this Lent, whenever a person participates in daily, Mass, visits a church, attends a Lenten service - he is somehow sharing in ~n ancient Christian custom. Though far from the station churches of Rome, he has nevertheless caught their meaning of loving devotion to Christ - and is a better man for it.

"There is danger that some .may practice the F~lith from tra:' . ditional usage, following the prevailing. fashion without any deep-rooted loyalty to or clear understandin~ of, the beliefS 'which they profess."
