Vocations Mean Salvation of Souls
,Accept The Call of Our Savior By Rev~ John J~ Hayes Diocesan Director of Vocations There was a train wreck. The laborers into His' vineyard." The hfllside was a mass of twisted ever increasing number of Cath steel and mangled bodies. A olics at home and abroad means doctor working feverishly to help the suffering was kneeling over
a man badly i!ljured and was heard to say, "I could save this'
man, but I haven't got my in. -struments." As the Divine Redeemer bends dowil over fallen human. ity, He sees countless souls that could be saved if He but had His instruments. In the Divine Wisdom, not angels, but men and women are His selected instru ments. Only through the coop

at stake and the sole remedy lies in that· single word "voca tions". God has chosen no other way. It is just as simple as that. Our Saviour said to His apostles, "The fields are white for the harvest." "Pray the Lord f'R. JOHN J. HAYES et tile harveat,that'He send·
. "Just as there can be no true order in the Church without true freedom, so there can be no true freedom in the Church without order," he said. "Anyone who through dictatorship and terror destroys freedom in the Chur~h, also destroys true order and authority in the Church. And anyone who. through rebel-' lion and revolt. destroys order and' authority in the Church also destroys true freedom in the Church.' Both freedom in order and order in freedoql make up the Church of Christ."
TtJ.e first session of the Second Vatican Council has "become a manifestation of freedom in the Church observed by the whole world," Father Kung said.
"Is it an illUsion," he asked, "to hope that with this Council a new period has begun in the history of the Catholic Church: the period of a new and fruitful freedom in the Church?"
He suggested that the Catholic Church of the United States "will take an important, a lead. ing 'position in this new period of the Catholic Church." Turn to Page Four

Patron of Priests
Clear and True Lines A Catholic University rector in Ceylon told an acade
mic convocation that it is the work of the Catholic college
to draw on truths discovered by such teachers as Buddha,
St. Augustine and Einstein and bring these into unity.
This is the kind of talk that should be given in this
age. This is the kind of Catholic approach that should be
emphasized.
The Catholic Church has always''Il1aintained that truth is one. Since all truth is but the reflection of Eternal Truth it must be always welcomed with enthusiasm and from whatever discoverer it may come. But that h 9s no~ always been the image the Church has presented,to men. Whose fault is this? Perhaps men have been prejudiced against the Church and have for too long seen it as a dictatorial monolithic structure accepting nothing that it itself has not discovered. Or, and this is more likely, Catholics have served their Church poorly in not presenting her true image to the world. Catholics have simply parroted what they have learned from a catechism and have neglected to present the Church to the world clad in her scriptural garments and, as the Spouse of Christ, inviting men to taste of the freedom of the children of God. Now a fresh breeze has come into the picture. The aim of the Vatican Council - to confront the world with the image of Christ's Church - is being realized. And Catholics are surprising and delighting those not of the Catholic Faith by showing them what the Church really is - a universal Mother, the defender of truth wherever this may be found, a Mother eager to take what men bring to her and ready to ac~ept what is good and true of this. Men are frightened of an organization. No one is afraid of a mother. Men are fearful about expressing their beliefs to be examnined by a monolithic structure speaking a Medieval language. No one would hesitate to bring truth to the Guardian of Truth. Men are frightened off by a philosophic or theological language they do not know. No one is upset by the words of Scripture. This is indeed a wonderful age when the Church is being seen in such clear and true lines.

ClhnO'U.9h thE. CW££It CWith thE Chu.nch By REV. ROBERT W. HOVDA, Catholic University TODAY - Thursday, Fourth Week in Lent. Even life itself God gives and restores through human instruments. Jesus (Gos pel), Eliseus (First Reading), Baptism and the Sacrament of Penance and their human min isters today-all as life-giv~ng as the creative unton in marriage. The Christian is no less appre ciative of natural life than he is of his communion in the life of the Most Holy Trinity, though he recognizes the hierarchy of values. And even with respect to the most precious of these gifts it is a visible Church which is the channel of life-giving.
A cynical observer of the passing parade of humanity once observed that heredity deals the cards and environ- . ment plays the hand. He was saying that, to a large degree, a person is the product of his age - of his family, his training, his at mosphere,. his friends. This is not the whole picture, of course. The grace of God has made itself evident in enough cases to show many persons reaching heights of integrity and achievement th~t family and environmental background would not indicate. TOMORROW-Friday, Fourth And no one can measure such things as free will and de Week in Lent. The life theme is termination and courage and the other spiritual qualities the subject of the lessons again that are not always the expected accompaniments of a today. Lent calls to us to resist certain type of family or environment. everything tha·t belongs to death, But it is still valid to say that a person is to great every diminishment of life. And through Lent and its liturgy, degree the product of his age. offers increase of life and And it is also valid to assume that in this age: Almighty God restoration of hfe to all ho do God is just as concerned about His Church as He has been not welcome death and its world of evil. In the opening prayer , in every other age. All this ends in the conclusion that God must be of the Mass, the Collect, we ask "OIl ... * let your Church profit providing vocations' to the priesthood and to the religious from the things that are given life. There are young men and women whom He is calling to for her eternal life and not lack serve Him as priests and brothers and sisters. your help in this present life." But these young men and women are children of their SATURDAY-Fourth Week in age. And this age is one of noise and activity - the subtle call of God can be easily drowned out. It is an .age of Lent. "My Father who sent me activity - the call to be someone for God is often pushed is with me" (Gospel). Here is "a time of pardon" (First aside in the scramble to do something. It is an age of indeed Reading), a "day of salvation." things'- and God's call asks that people look beyond things The latter gives us a prophetic picture of heaven, the satisfac to Him.

death of Jesus, is the central theme. Because it is His death, because it is the submission to de'ath of one Who could not be conquered by it ("before ever Abraham came to be, I am" Gospel), it means life for us. The First RE'ading places it firmly as climax and fulfillment of a tradition of priestly offer ings, a "victim unblemished." The Preface for these two weeks contrasts the tree of the Cross with the tree of the Garden-the former a sign of life-giving as the latter was of death-dealing. Closer to the paschal and bap tismal celebration, we place in today's hymns and readings the fury of evil alongside the power of God, temporal sufferings alongside an eternal inheritance.
MpNDAY IN PASSION 'WEEK. "If any man is thirsty, let him come to me and drink" (Gospel). It is this Person who is our salvation. It is this Person to whom awareness of our sinful ness and helplessness (First Reading, Hymns) must draw us. Nothing is clearer i~ the texts of the liturgy of these important days than the personal nature of the Christian religion. Easter's significance as center of the whole Christian year of worship impresses the believer with the knowledge that no moral code, no great idea or insight, no cer Emony, but a Person is the Gos pel, the good news. T U E S DAY IN PASSION WEEK. Jesus is hated, Jesus' is Dot recognized, Jesus is rejected (Gospel). And if this is the fate of the Son, it is also the fate of the servant 'of God (Daniel, in the First Reading). Babylon is symbol as well as historY-both of the power of evil and of dark ness and of its ultimate futility. We pray today for the trust and confidence which is "Babylon's" greatest fear. WEDNESDAY IN PASSION WEE K . The First Reading teaches us again that the Law .:omes from God, that it is no abstract code but a personal com mand. And the Gospel completes the picture with its affirmation of Jesus' divinity. Not only the Law comes from God but also a 'Person-a Person who accomplishes salvation, whereas the Law could only show the need. For in Jesus Christ God answers the prayer of the Tract so familiar in the Masses of Lent: "Lord, do not treat us as our sins deserve."
History' of Church Is TV Film Story WASHINGTOI\' (NC)-A spe cial television series entitled "I ,am With You," scheduled for the "Catholic Hour" program on Sundays in May, will be dedi cated to Pope John. Martin H. Work, executive di rector of the National Council of Catholic Men, said the four-part series "is the most extensive religious-historical documentary ever filmed for television." The "Catholic Hour" program, produced by the NCCM, will be shown on the NBC-TV network on the four Sundays in May from 1:30 to 2 P.M., EDT. The series was filmed over a ten week period in 16 cities in eight countries of the Middle East and Europe.
slowly, painfully, certainly, can cer ushers in the only reliever death. Why such a terrifying suf fering? Themys tery of pain, sickness, suffer ing and death has puzzled the greatest of minds and led the finest of characters to near despair. Yet Christians value such pain. Oh, they have no attraction t8 pain, no one has, but somehow they accept it, they value it, as is taught during this Passion tide. Why? In the glorification of Baptism, . the great St. Paul often showed how the Sacrament completely changed man. What greater change will we have to experi ence than death itself? . Symbolic Death In the administration of the Sacrament by immersion, this idea is best pointed out. The change brought about in the in. dividual by Baptism is equal to that of death to the body. The candidate is immersed under the water to symbolize death, a complete break with the past. Then, he or she is raised above the waters to show the new life now in the soul-a resUrrection, a completely new beginning. Another image often used by the Apostle was that of putting off the "Old man" and putting on "the new". Again, a complete , change is meant and death is associated with the change to show the profound transforma tion that is brought about by Christ's Sacrament. Death with Christ ' But this transformation is not something we can bring about by our own self-will, strength of character, or personal deten;ni nation. Justification is brought about by God alone - although not contrary to our own will and only with our cooperation. The efficiency of the Sacraments de pends only on Christ and our weak "ok". Therefore, the great Apostle of the Gentiles does not hesitate to show that it was in pain that our salvation was brought about and in pain that we too must work it out for ourselves. The parallel is often made: if we want to glory with Christ forever, we must learn to suffer with Him now. "What is lacking of the SUfferings of Christ," adds the great Apostle, "I fill up in my flesh for' His , body which is the Church." Therefore does the Apostle iR all of his epistles urge one to work and to suffer with Christ. He lists the various persecutions launched against him, not ift sorrow but with joy that he was permitted to so associate him self with his Master. "To allow ourselves'to be crucified by suf fering with Christ is to grow iR the likeness of God.... Suffer ing passes; having suffered, never." But if our suffering is to be like Christ's, it too must be freely chosen and accepted and offered. The Why of Suffering We can therefore implement our Baptism by our offering of pain. Adam would have had no comprehensible use for pain. But after the Fall, ah, the story WlUl different. It would be his curse. However, after Christ had re stored man to Adam's first inno cence, pain remained. Now it was not because Christ was just not powerful enough or that Adam'. sin was' just too full of malice to be completely forgiven. No, Turn to Page Eleven

First 'Communion Festivities May Be Simple, Elaborate By Mary Tinley Daly Comes a letter posing a not uncommon problem: Dear Mrs. Daly: Our. oldest girl will be making her First Communion soon. Is it necessary to have a family get together afterward? It seems quite an undertaking to get the child ready and attend perhaps take pictures in her Mass and then come home to white dress and veil. a house full of company for Maybe you could invi1e them breakfast. If it is proper, to stop by in th~~ early or later what would be a sImple meal to serve or would it be better to take .L"te child out to breakfast as guest of honor? An Ardent Reader Certainly it is not necessary to have a fami ly get-together after the Mass when your daughter has received her First Commu nion. Since 'she is your oldest, I a ss urn e that there are sev eral young children, per haps babies, to be cared for while you, your husband and little girl are at Mass. This is a very happy, but busy, morning for a mother. UP to You I would say that the matter is entirely up to you. If the pro spect of coming "home to a house full of company for break fast" is going to detract one bit from your happiness and that of your daughter op. this very special day, confine the break fast to just the small family cir de, your husband and children. Or take your "guest of honor" out to breakfast as you suggest. The larger family circle will understand if you tell them tactfully that the morning rush is just too hectic for a big family to-do. They will, of course, like to see the little girl on "her day,"

it was because God had found a use for pain. It would have been just as easy for God to have restored man to that physical perfection, moral integrity,' perfectly con trolled will, effortless yet exact underst~nding, harmony and complete subjection of all to the soul and that to God. But no. In His infinite wisdom, He "pre ferred to bestir us rather to a deep and poignant awareness of our vocation as members of the crucified Christ." OUf own weak. ness in our repeated attempts at doing good will only point to the fact more clearly that it is God who is the prime mover - not little us. Our inclination' to evil only provides us with the oppor tunity of striving-and conquer ing. "The adequate explanation must be sought in the contem- plation of Christ crucified; only in the light of His suffering can we find· the real meaning of human suffering." Uses of Suffering In God's plan, suffering is ex piation and reparation for man's own faults and those of his' brothers (Remember Adam, the wandering in the desert, etc,J. But it is also a purification for'it weans us from the fleeting and hollow pleasures of sin. "A soul lifted by suffering, like Christ on Golgotha, above the things of eartp, turns to heaven and away from all that is not God." " Christ's' adoption' of sUffering' Ihows us that it is ·also merito rius'and corCdeeming. St. Paul's above quotation of 'intention to auffer inotder' to' implementtne 'suffering of Christ shows us this. Besides, "it ,was not by His words, nor by His miracles; that J'esus saved the world, but by living ~is life." The crucifix shall always be a pointed re minder of the greatness of God's love and the horror of sin. . Suffering is also sanctifying. Through it we become like unto Christ. , Passion Sunday For the next few weeks, the Church shall focus on the suf ferings of Christ, the' sufferings that brought about so much for us. We must remember that these sufferings were freely chosen by Christ to teach Us something and 1.0 give us an example to follow. Our Baptism identifies us with Christ-but not with a sugary little imitation of Christ-with the Christ crucified. Easter is such a consoling joy; there would be none if there had not been first a Good Friday. Our glory as brother and sister of Christ must also be bought in His freely poured Blood and our own sweat.

Happiness in'
Fr. Kung's Book Suggests M~thods ·to Effect· Unity
Everyone's Duty But admitting the existence of imperfections, and worse, is not
enough. Father Kung quotes a rriticfsm. voiced to him by Karl Barth: namely that Catholics, if they acknowledge what is awry in the Church, do nothing 8.1 all about it. , Action is required. Catholics
must ever be at work to renew the Church. Nor is this any novel counsel. Even rudimentary ac ~uaintance with Church history shows one that, from the early ages ·onward there always has been earnest endeavor to renew
the Church. Everyone has a duty to get on with it in the present f.ge. Sobject to Corr<ectio~ Schism IS too much taken for granted.. Su long-standing is it that it may easily be regarded as permanent, irremediable. It must be seen as deplorable and subject to correction. Its cor lection will, primarily and in comparably, be God's work, in His own way and in His own time.' Kung takes up twel questioIl8 which have given endless trou ble. One is the meaning of the 1'tatement that outside the Church there is no salvation. This he treats in the light of the Saviour's own utterances and 2ctions as presented in the Gos pels, and he pleads for an under standing of the traditional prin ciple not as "hard" and "phar isaical," but as "deeply merciful, reaching out t<. all mlm of good will." Salvation of P~a.us. The other question is that of the salvation of pagans.' When mooted centuries ago, it was not as thorny as now, since the tre mendous number of pagans was not grasped. nor was the number of millenia that people had lived on earth prior to the coming of Christ. Renewal of Liturgy Two letters are .devoted to the liturgy. The Mass is analyzed sa to its essence, and the history of
of its development is traced. I-t
is thus shown that certain ele ments now in the Mass. are rath er late and do not pertain to the .essence. But they were fixed in order to prevent abuses and ex crescences which the author do.es not hesitate to style ''monstrous.'' He contends. that as the Mass became-remote .from the people oecause, for example, of .the language, one which almost none o~ them understood), the people, all _over Europe, with drew from the Mass. One ,thinks; however, of the Irish, who did not understand Lat1n and who dId not withdraw from the .Mass.
Dedication
God Love You By Most Rev. Fulton J. Sheen. D.O. '\'then the time Clime for the Jews to pass into the Promised Land, two of the tribes refused to cross the Jordan because some struggle and warfare' would be required for its possession. So there are many of us who, during Lent, refuse to cross the Jordan the thin dividing line between the flesh-life and the Christ-life' because it requires a li-ttle bit of self-abnegation. As a result w~ live in mediocrity, in a half-baked condition that is so ne~ to inner joy and yet so far.
By Rt. Rev. Msgr. John S. Kennedy Father lIans Kung's new book, That the World May Believe (Sheed and Ward. $3) is both unlike and like the one which catapulted him to fame, The Council, Reform and Reunion.

A main concern is with those things about Catholics which dis courage, rather than encourage, the world's' conversion to Christ and a' drawing together of all Christians. .In the first letter, the author 1U'ges his correspondent to· dis cuss religion with the young woman with whom he is keeping eompany. The correspondent is a Catholic. the girl a Protestant. By all means should these two people talk about their respec tive faiths But there are certain points which the 'Catholic should bear in mind when differences are touched upon. Facts to Remember One is the fact that Protestants are also Christians. Any need to remind one of that? Yes indeed. All. too c.ommon is the ignorant assumption. that the case is otherwise. A second fact is that responsi ·-b1lity for the schism which rent Christendom in the sixteenth century is not entirely on Prot estant shoulders; Catholics liad en ample share of blame for it. A third fact is Catholics' obli-. cation to put some things right which. put Protestants and others off: that is. to correct abuses and excesses. Failings Inevitable That abuses and excesses exist must be recognized. A Catholic, says the author. does not have to defend everything about the Church and Catholics. Explana tion, rather than defense, is often ·the proper course. There is sin in the Church; every Catholic. fro~ the small child to the Holy Father himself, says the- Conflteor And since the Church, while divine,' is'. made liP of hur.lan beings, .mediocrity, teilure, wrong developments and decisions are inevitable.

BLOOMFIELD (N C) - A non-Catholic observer at the Second Vatican Council said the Council "may be one of the turning points in history." The Rev. Dr. James Hastings Nicholas, history professor at
Princeton Theological Seminary,
spoke here prior to an Interfaith panel discussion about the Coun cil at Westminster Presbyterian church. It is still "too early" to· give a positive assessment of the im pad of the Council, Dr. Nicho~ said, but "it may well be" that the Council will see a rebirth of the Christian church. . He told an overflow audience the Council's principal task was of a pastoral nature. The pre~
of non-Catholic observers, he as
serted, "very s i gnU i can tl y changed the tone of the Coun cil." He said that because of the placement of the 'observers in the Council hali, "no bishop could make a sp'eech without looking directly at the ob servers." ./ Dr. Nichols, praising the bishops, said he did not "hear olle expressIon which was cal';" culated to antagonize ob"" .servers." The observers were given the samematerlal all tile bIShops and even had translaton to help them with the' LattD. he said;· They "were more than ob servers - they were vtrtuaU7 COD.N1tants," he added.

Stalin,' ~is Mother's Son 'Hard, Unresigned, Bitter' By Most Rev. Rohert J. Dwyer. O. O.
Bishop of Reno
On May 29, 1899, a young clerical student named 10seph Djtigashvili was expelled from the Orthodox theo logical seminary of Tiflis, Georgia. on charges of insubor dination and indifference to his studies. For some time he had been suspected of revo had she not done her best lutionary tendencies, though fare, to set him on the only road to, it is doubtful' whether the success available, the preferment fa cui t y ever knew how of the Church? deeply he was involved in the activities of a Marxist study group, or cell, secretly organ ized among the semiaar tans. The au thorities had had trouble fro m t hi,s aource before, and in 1883 the IIeminary had even been closed for a tune because of student unrest. Djugashvili (he would adopt the name Stalin only some years later), aged 19, and already known as a singu larly dour and impassive young man, trudged his way back to the, cottage of his widowed mother, Catherine, in the village of Gori, some 80 kilometers from Tiflis, located in the rocky foot hills of the Caucasus. There Joseph had been born, child of a poor-spirited serf, Vis . sarion, whl. eked out a miser able existence for his wife and ~amily by repairing boots and lIS often as ;lOt drinking up whatever profit~ there were. Three other children died in infancy The boy survived as his mother's only pride and hope.
Absorbed in Marxism For it was Catherine who made Stalin. It was 'she who conceived his vocation to the priesthood and who forced the issue with his father to send him to the preparatory seminary in Gori, thougl_ it meant that she would have to take in extra washing to keep the boy in books and clothing. If he could keep abreast of his studies the tuition would be free. When Joseph :was 11 Vissarion died, apparently unregretted. For 10 years she hoped against hope while the boy, by no means an enthusiastic student, strug gled through the minor seminary and then went on to the major course in Tiflis. After an initial success with his studies there he became ab sorbed in the clandestine Marx ist readings, and little by little his grades declined. It was hard to keep up a pretense of study ing the Sacred Scripture while his real interest was Das Kapital, and his professors could not be deceive.d forever, The end was inevitable. Symbol of Ambition What Catherine had to say to her son when he walked over the threshold of the cottage, a disgraced seminarian, was not recorded. It could hardly have conveyed her understanding or her forgiveness. Likely enough, he asked for neither. For there is little evi dence of any warmth of affection between mother and 'son; it seems rather to have been a case of the boy servipg as a symbol of her voracious ambition and as an outle~ for her determina tion to conquer her little world. Vein of Iron The story is strongly reminis cent of Franz Werfel's novel, Embezzled Heaven, in which the old servant concentrates the ,whole force of her pride upon her unworthy protegee, and sees him ordained a priest only to taste the awful bitterness' of dis illusionment. " So here. His infatuation with Marxism was a closed book to her; she was tenacious of her faith, vaguely irritated by all his foolish notions Dialectic mat€ ' rialism, what was that? And as for class war-

THE ANCHOR-
~iscusses Vocations
Shortage of Priests Causing Crisis in Church
O:ocesan Director Continued from Page One He calls, the Divine Lover of souls beckons quietly, "Come follow Me." He never forces His way into any soul; the door of the heart at which He knockshas the latch on thf' inside and must be opened from within. To empty the heart of self-love and give it to Christ and His cause demands sacrifice of a high order; it is nevpr easy and youth needs generosi~y, courage and daring to meet the challenge to aay of accepting the Saviour's invitation to a life of total dedi cation. One vocatior with God's grace, can change our world. S1. Francis of Assisi, SUPP:Jrting upon his shoulders a ~ottering church; 8t: Francis Xav'_er, opening new continents for Christ; S1. Cath erine of Siena_ St. Theresa of Avila,-their g",nerous response to the invitation of Jesus un locked countless graces for the people of their <.ge. Christ today is issuing -new invitations to greatness and Catholic youth to day must weigt. the responsibil ity involved in the Saviour's call. A decision has to be made. A poet expresses it in these words: "It's up to you" "You are th" fellow who has to decide, Whether you'll do it or toss it aside, You are the fellow that makes up your mifld, Whether you'll lead or lag behind, Whether you'I! try for a goal that's afar Or just be .:ontented to stay where you 3l'e, Take it or leave it, here's something to do, Just think it over-it's -all up to you." _ Yes, if you :lave the health and the ability to do the work required; if y,-,u want Christ, He wants you! He wants you to be generous and not count the oost. Your generous response will be the key to unlock untold graces for our w,Jrld. Listen to a religious priest who once labored In our Diocese as -he speaks to youth. VOCATION I have only one life to give; I have only one heart to give; So 1 must ~hoose with the greatest care; What shall 1 l!o with a gift so rare? The eyes of Youth smile joy ously; The arms of Fame reach out for me; But these may not my path way swerve, For these be not the gods I serve. I seek the silence of His Home; 1 find it, and my God alone! "Master, Whf; here dost live for me, How can 1 chnose but live f-or Thee?" God does not dispense with human agents in the selection of !louIs called to a life of total dedication. It was Andrew who brought Simon to the feet of Christ; it was :;t Ignatius who constantly rerinr,ded St. Francis Xavier of the sublimity of a life spent for Chri<;t. But let Pope
John tell you in words that he spoke in April 1961. "But a priest does not appear just by accident; 3 vocation does not develop by ;:-self. And so we must work. All together and with good will, ;>riests first of all and· then good ;ay people, parents, each accord ing to his own "apacities and op. portunities." The most important ):(oal for both oriests and laity, stated the Holy Father is to es tablish "respect and esteem for the great dignity of the priest hood_" Priests-first of all and they above all in -the church should flssist in the recruitment of their successors in the perpetuation of the Divine Priesthood of Christ. We have here in America the glorious heritage of pioneer American bishops, who, without seminaries_ attracted youth to themselves and led them to be "Other Christs'. Every priest from the moment of ordination b a spiritual father and should be capable of begetting other spiritual sons and daughters, who when hb earthly day' is .lone will carry aloft the lamp of Faith. Then the P'irents-how im portant is their role in the en couragement of vocations? Again, Itt Pope John tell you as he told a group of-women in Italy. "We owe a great part of our priestly dnd apostolic vocation to our family-not reaily so poor as it has pleased some to describe it out rich above all in heavenly gifts. We owe th~s to the example of our good parents, father and mother, which is always im printed on our' '1earts and to the atmosphere of kindness, sim plicity and honesty which we breathed from .,arly childhood". It is with parents that a voca tion usually begins. Napoleon was once askeo when a child's education began "Twenty years before the birth of the child," he answered. So otten, that is when a vocation begins. Vocations,. it Is true, come from God, but the seed needs to be nourished in the congenial s:>H of the good Catholic home where there is the spirit of faith love, sacrifice ~ n d discipliilt:. The Priest, Brothers -and Sisters that the Church will need tomorrow are now in our homes. If only fathers and mothers would cre ate a truly Catholic atmosphere; if they would but pray and yearn for God to select a 'son or daugh ter to be His tool or instrument to the sanctifIcation of !lOuIs!
Thurs., Mar. 28, 1963
But the tragic fact is, that too often, parents have such miscon ceptions of religious life,- so great c;n ignorance of the happiness ilnd enrichment this life can bring to their children that they make a- vocation an obstacle race. Their oppositiop and critical at t;tude; their :-tdicule or their very indifferenee, can smother so quickly the flame that had commenced to -hine so brightly. 30d does not ask of parents gold or silver, but th~t they give back. to Him their own flesh and 't>lood, and for that sacrifice, willingly made they will share in the hundredfold reward guaranteed by the Saviour. Concern for vocations should extend I10t only to youth, to Bishop, to prie,t~ and religious and to parents, but every Catho 'lic should became vocation con scious. The laity have become accustomed to ~~e vocations for granted. For aU their spiritual needs they havE- found a priest available; schocls and sisters have lovingly received their children and they never thought that it might be otherwise. It is mconceivable to them that the stream of vocatIons could dry up Gr become a mf-!re trickle. Now, they might weI' ask themselves 'vhat have they ever done per ;'onally for vocations? Have they ~ncouraged thew_ at all or prayed for them. Tru~:v, vocations are the concern of all Catholics and !re everybody's business. When St. Fnncis Xavier lay :lying on San1"ian Island, ex '1austed by lab~r~ he cried' out, "Souls, 0 Lor<1. give souls to me!" His hea'"t-rending thirst for souls was but an echo of the Divine _Thirst on Calvary, when f.Nlffi the parched lips of the Saviour came t!le piercing cry, '1 thirst"; and only the salvation of souls could quench that thirst. Vocations are t}od's chosen in struments for the salvation - of souls. Pray for 'vocations! Foster the in every way you can!

Admiral AndersoR Goins laetare Med(J' WOl'lor NOTRE DAME (NC) -Chief of Naval Onerations Admiral George W. Anderson, Jr., will receive the University of Notre Dame's Laetare Medal for 1963, Father Theodore M. Hesburgb, C.S.C .. university president, announced. The Laetare Medal has be~ awarded annually since 1883 to an outstaprHnet American Catho lic layman. President Kennedy was the rer-in;"nt in 1961. Admiral Anderson, a member 01 the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Js the second Naval figure to re ceive the medal. An earlier Chief of N'l"al Operations, Ad miral William Shepherd Benson, was simil:'lrlv honored in 191'1. Father Hp<:burgh, in naming the four-star admiral for this year's awaro_ paid tribute to Anderson "for his more than 35 years of coura~eous and brilliant service to the nation."

,Church 'Status Critical 'Psychological Hour to' Help Bolivia' Says Bishop McNulty on Return
Most 'Needed Quality Integrity Based on Christian Et'hics Vital Against Today's Challenges WASHINGTON (NC) - A re t(red general told some' 1,200 men at a Communion breakfast here that the single quality most needed by men to meet today's challenges is individual integrity based on a Christian code of ethics. Lt" Gen. Arthur G. Trudeau, former director of research and development for the U. S. Army, warned a~ the annual breakfast of . the Loyola Retreat League that material comforts are dull ing spiritual values in the U. S. " 'Prior to the breakfast the men of the retreat league attended a Mass offered in St. Patrick's church "Jy Auxiliary Bishop Philip M. Halman of Washington. Geri. Trudeau asserted that

Michael Sahady, president; 31).d Arthur Bousquet, vice-pres ident. The class of. 1943 will also be honored at the event.
"we have been so blessed in this favored segment of 'the world that material comforts have be come the opiate of the people." "Growing up in an educational atmosphere where many of our people by design avoid consid eration of other moral and spir itual values so vital to our chil dren flnd' our civilization," he continued, "it is no wonder that * * * the material comforts available increasingly obscure the importance of the only phil osophy which gives r~al meaning to life itself-the code of Chris tianity. Prayer Argument, "The bulk of our people are stil.l shocked, .however, that a simple, daily tribute to God cannot be paid by our children in school without argument and legal acrobatics." Asserting that "our standard of living is not enhanced b'y gad~ gets for 'the man-or woman who has everything,''', the gen-. eral added: "I can think of no single quality more needed to day than real individual integ rity ba.sed on our Christian code of ethics in every facet of life."
PATERSON (NC)-Paterson's Bishop James A. McNulty came home convinced that now "is the critical hour in Bolivia-but it il' not desperate.", "It's the psychological hour to send help," said the prelate, just returned from a three-week trip to La Paz and Caranavi, where uriests of his diocese have sub sidized ::I parish in each commun ity. The Bishop told an interview er: "It seems to me that there is a stirring of the Spirit in Bolivia." , "I had neard of the threat of communism," he said. "I asked questions of people in authority. They agree that this is the cri ical hour in Bolivia--":"but it is not " ~sperate." "There is one anxiety when you undertake something like this," the Bishop said. "You wonder is it worth' all the effort. When 'you See the results you know it is worth all the sacri fices." The Bishop said he traveled to almost inaccessible areas of Bolivia to confirm and give First Communion. He said he was given a, warm welcome in La Paz and Caranavi. In one outlying mission area

he found that the men of the mission had cleaned and reful' bished the church - and then locked it to be sure that the U. S. Bishop would be the first to lay eyes upon the fruits of their labors. He gave candy and holy cards to the youngsters. He said he complied so often with the re. quest for "Rosario, Monsignor" that on one jeep-ride he found himself without any beads at all when he wanted to say the Rosary. Bishop McNulty said he was greatly impressed by the Indiana of the areas.

Eastern Catholic Tourney. Now Playing at 'Newport Leads Team to New Bedford eyO Title By Jack Kineavy A fitting climax to a notable tournament season is the 26th annual Eastern States Catholic Invitation basketball tourney slated to get underway today at 3 :15. P.M. when Canevan High of Pittsburgh, Pa. taps off agamst Bergen Catholic of Oradell, N.J., in highlight is the Saturday the first of a brace of after luncheon· which this year will be noon quarterfinal round con .held in the Enlist~d Men's Mess tests at Rogers High, New at the Naval Station. port, R.I. The sequel matinee brings together Trenton Catho lic, a perennial ESCIT power, and St. Mary's of Manhasset, L.I., New York. Tonight's pairIngs find DeMatha High of Hyattsville, Md. opening defense of its 1962 title against Central Catholic of AI lentown, Pa., in a 7:30 game to be followed at 9 by the quarterfinal finale f~aturing a not her long-standmg ESCIT participant, St. Peter's Prep of Jersey C~ty, N.J., an~ St. John's College HIgh of Wash~ngton, D.C. There are no seedmgs in this year's competition. The tournament once again is being conducted under the gen eral chairmanship of F .•Herman Rathkamp who with th!,! assist ance of a dedicated veteran com mittee has fashioned a tourney program which is in keeping with the finest traditions of ESCIT. A great deal of prepara tion is required in an under taking of this scope and the Tourney Committee is to be commended for its long and un tiring efforts to insure the smooth functioning of the pro gram. Proving Ground ESCIT is demonstrating high school basketball at its best. A perusal of the All-Tourney teams down through the years is replete with young men who went on to greater heights on the court in collegiate and pro fessional ranks. Tom Heinsohn and Tom Gala are included. Vin Ernst, John Tho m p son, Joe Kelley of Holy Cross and Nick Werkman, the nation's leading llCorer this past year at Seton Hall are a few of more recent vintage. John Austin, who led the Boston College Freshman to an undefeated season this win ter, was ESCIT's Most Valuable Player last year. The Tourney is a must for many of the nation's leading college coaches and among them this year is expected to be a rookie by the name of Bob Cousy who next year will take over the varsity reins at Boston College. An invitation has been extended Mr. Basketball and barring conflict with the NBA playoff schedule, we wouldn't be surprised to see him on hand. The semifinals will be played tomorrow night,the first game starting at 7:30 and the consola tion and championship finals' are set for Saturday evening, March 30. During the interim hours away from the court, the visiting players will be treated to- conducted tours of nearby Naval Installations, historic sites and buildings and Newport's famed Ocean Drive. An annual
Asserts Ecumenical Approach Unclear RECKI!'~GHAUSEN (N C ) Despite the "surprising openness toward other Christian believ ers" shown by the Fathers of the Second Vatican Council, the Catholic Church's approach to ecumenism is not 'yet clear, ac cording to a German Lutheran theologian who served as ob server-delegate of the Evangeli cal Church of Germany at the Council. Dr. Emund Schlink, professor of dogmatic theology at the Uni. versity of Heidelberg, feels final judgments on the part of non. Catholic Christian churches must be reserved until actual deci. sions are reached and formally promulgated by the Pope. .
Local Officials Ray Ready of Somerset is area representative for ESCIT and ticket reservations may be ar ranged through him or his aides, Raoul Gagnon of Swansea and Ike Robinson of Somerset. A member of the referees' staff for the tourney is Nick Cariglia of Warren, R.I., who is well known in Southeastern Mass. athletic circles, a former coach at Westport High and a veteran college and high school official. In projecting finalists in New England hockey and basketball competition last week was men tioned, not seriously, the pos sibility that each might result in an intra-state affair. This is pre cisely what hap pen e d and though Burrillville reaffirmed its superiority over Hope by a one-sided· 5-1 victory to annex hockey laurels, Stearns of Mil linocket reversed the outcome of the Maine LL tourney to edge Morse High of Bath by a 58-56 count. Cinderella Team For Stearns, only the second Maine team ever to achieve New England honors, the victory marked the culmination of an uphill tourney struggle. They gave away height to spare against both Rogers High of Newport, R.I., State champion, and Rindge Tech of Cambridge, Eastern Mass. Class A titlist. Led by senior Terry Carr, who has a style all his own, and sophomore Jon MacDonald, the Maine runnersup quickly captivated the Garden fans with their speed and aggressiveness. Uncanny accuracy from the outside discounted their height disadvantage and they appeared completely oblivious to the fact that they were playing before a crowd that was considerably larger than the total population of the It."'orthern Maine mill town which they represented. Veteran basketball observers expressed the consensus that the All-Maine final was one of the best· New England finals in many years. And what can be said that hasn't already been noted re garding the fabulous Friars of Providence Co11ege who last week captured their second N.I.T. championship in three years? Recognition of Captain Ray Flynn's tremendous perfor mance with his selection as MVP was richly merited, though as coach Joe Mullaney observed in a post game comment, the suc cess of the Providence College team was due to the fine efforts of five MVPs.
