Holy Week Services Stress Pres~nt Personal Real;ti~s Continued from Page One the saving of the human race. ,These holy jays have a greater importance than being simple holidays. They have a tremen­ dous present and future impor­ ~ce too. For the present, they contain a living reality: the occasion of joining ourselves to the work of Christ, the .grace and the obligatIon of working out our own personal salvation along with Christ. For the future therp is the consoling assurance that death is not the end-all for us but, as for Christ, there will be the resurrection and eternal life and-please God-glorifica­ tion of and 'With God. Holy Thursday The original scene of this great day was the upper room of the Cenacle. There during Christ's celebration of the Jewish Pasch, three great events shook the re­ ligious world. First, Christ insti­ tuted the Holy Eucharist; then, h~ instituted Holy Orders; fin­ ally, he illustrated His com­ manC:ment of brotherly love with the "Mandatum".

'With the new reforms in force f<ir the first time, the early li­ turgical service--the Mass of the Chrism-will clearly emphasize the Priesthood and the ministry whicl: Christ designated for it.

The special concelebrated Mass will ;Uustrate the unity of the Priesthood, showing all priests the world over as the divinely a p p (' i n ted instruments sent throughout the world to do Christ's work ir. His Name. This is illustrated in the consecration of tho;. oils to be used through the year in the adm\nistration of the Sacr:;.ments.

In the evening. the Lord's Last Suppp.r is celebrated-celebrated beca'Jse the Lord is again in the midst of us doinr the very same thin~ he did for those in the Cenacle room that night. Again, we bave the institution of the Blessed Sacrament - His Body and His 'Blood The third great event of this day is the "Mandatum" - the Lord's Commandment - the washing of the feet, Here, the eelel.'rant of the evening Mass will perform to the letter what Our Lord did for His apostles that 'light "I have given you the example, that you might do likewise." Thus, with respect and humility. ~he priest illus­ trate:; his love--Christ's love-­ for bis people by performing wha~ was for the orientals a great sign of welcome and re­ spect If' it is only humility to our eyes, then the words of Christ to Peter should be re­ membered: ''Unless you let Me do this, you can have no part with Me." .

Good Friday On this day, the Church does not offer the holy sacrifice of the Mass. She is too caught up with the immolation of Christ on thE' Cross to stop and renew mystically that very same all­ saving sacrifice.

Thp solemn service of the day is in four parts: 1. the Liturgy of the Word; 2. the Great Catho­ lic Prayers; 3. the Adoration of the Cross; 4. the Communion.

The Liturgy of the Word is made up of lessons, chants, med­ itations and prayers. Here, pas:' sages of the Old Testament point to the Passion of Christ and fin­ ally the Passion according to St. John is solemnly read.

The Great Catholic Prayers are sCllemn recommendations ad­ dressed to the crucified Christ, the one and only Mediator of the Church and all creation. All prayerfully hope that the Blood' spilled on Calvary may pour ill J'edemption to all kinds of pe0­ ple OIl the world today. ThY

year some of the prayers have been reworded so that they not only exp:oess our brotherly con­ cern for everyon~'s salvation but even in their wordmg they are expr~ssions of charity and love.

ThFl Adoration of the Cross is the heartfelt acceptance of Christ's sacrifice by us whom He saved. In this moving ven­ eration, Christ is accepted more like a King on His throne (as He il' described in the liturgy time and time again when speaking of the crucified Christ) than a condemned criminal on his scaffold.

Finally, the Communion Rite brings us to a personal contact with the crucified Christ. What would we have lovingly done if we 1-ad been standing there .in the circle atop Calvary? That we can now do, this day, in our re­ ceiving the Eucharistic Christ.

Holy Saturday This Is primarily a day of mourning just as it was for Mary. the apostles and disciples of Our Lord. However, late in the evening, the Easter celebra­ tions begin. Here, the Church remembers thE' troubled history of thp Jews, their Pasch. She, with great emotion, recalls that Christ was foretold in this great , Jewish fpast for the salvation of the Chosen People from the Egyptians is the first stage of the freeing of all people from the sJavery of sir.. But this night means more than that. It is the commemoration of our own freedom--our Baptism. It is the burst;ng joy of the triumphant Christ, triumphant over death, triumphant over sin. triumphant over any and, all plagues of human life.

The night service is in three parts: 1. the Celebration of Light; 2. the Celebration of Water; 3. the Celebration of the Eucharist.

In the Celebration of Light, we illustrate the joyous Resur­ rection. In early centuries, the Christians would bless the fire before their celebrations and meetings. After all, fire meant a great deal to them. It was fire that would be their only light, their only warmllh and the only instn'ment of edible food. was then, something fundamental basic and absolutely necessary­ just as Christ actually is.

From stone springs fire! Sud­ denly there is something active . • . alive! A candle especially decorated will "represent" the glorious and triumphant Christ.

Pure, clean and scented, the bee's wax candle shows us the glorious wocnds by which we have been saved-five decorated stones of incense. Just as it solemnly and gradually spreads its fire throughout the church, Christ has influenced and saved the en­ tire world.

With the great "Exultet" the Church invites us .allto rejoice.

We are saved! As the freed Jews passed through their Red Sea so we if' this night victory are for­ ever free and dear to Him. Him. In the Celebration of Water, the ceremony begins with certain readings taken from the Old Testament. These point to the creative and salutary power of God. -They tell us that: (1) man is created to the image and like­ ness of God; (2) just as the waters of Baptism make us adopted children of God, so we are freed of all sin's powers as the Jews were rescued from the Egyptians; (3) to be baptised means to be part of Christ's Church, a valued part of God's vine; (4) as members of Hi. Church, we are not to abuse these divine gifts. We must show ourselv~ worthy of thill vocatioll

Finally, in a moving ritual, realizing that Baptism means so much to us, we take all care and love to prepare water for the Baptisms of the next year. In a sense, the Resurrected Christ's power is let loose for the year to come.

Then, finally with one burst of joy after another, the Church offers her solemn thanksgiving with the offering of the Eucha­ rist. Now, the Resurrected Christ will even stand in our midst and buoy our spirits as He did his fearful apostles in the Cenacle.

STEUBENVILLE (NC)-The president of the World Methodist Council told 250 Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox and Jewish clergymen here that people today are taking a new look at religion. "Many people are now realizing that there is not only a lot wrong Their real enemies, he said, are with the church, but a lot secularism, !Ilaterialism and right," said Bishop Fred atheism-not each other.

Pope Paul Backs United Europe VATICAN CITY (NC)-Pope Paul VI again has given his sup­ port to the idea of a united Eu­ rope.

Declaring that nothing which could bring men closer together could be alien to him, the Pope added: "Not that the Church is competent to decide what are the best p~litic'al solutions to be adopted for the object pursued, but it is this object which inter­ ests us and which we find very happily formulated in one of the final recommendations of your consultative assembly: 'the real­ ization of a European union that would be as close as possible concerning links among the countries of Europe and as broad as possible concerning its fron­ tiers.' "

New Medal Honors Father ~ashington NEWARK (NC)-A new na­ tional award for heroism, named for a priest who gave his life for others, will be inaugurated by the Catholic War Veterans.

Called the Father John Wash­ ington Medal, it is named for a priest of the Newark archdiocese who was one of four chaplains to give up life preservers when the troopship U.S.S. Dorchester was sunk in the Atlantic, Feb. 3, 1943.

The medal will be unveiled at a memorial Mass for Father Washington, to be offered by Archbishop Thomas A. Boland at St. Rose of Lima church here in New Jersey Sunday, Feb. 7, 1966.

Corson a leader in ecumenical efforts and an ob­ server at the Second Vatican Council, said renewal of the church must take place "before any headway in ecumenicity may be made."

He said the ecumenical coun­ cil has given Protestants a new view of Catholicism and a con­ sequent new outlOOK on religious unity.

Previously, he said, "the Pro­ testant concept of the CathQlic Church has been a great mono­ lith in which its members are enveloped in a kind of lock-step.

But Vatican II showed me a considetable amount of freedom in the Catholic Church, and as a consequence I myself acquired a new concept of unity."

He had high praise for Pope John XXIII and said that, while the Pope "played it by ear" in seeking to foster ecumenism, "he never made a mistake."

"Without him, guided by the Holy Spirit, we could never have come together," the Methodist leader told his interdenomina­ tional audience.

Of Pope Paul VI, with whom he had a lengthy audience soon after his election to the papacy, Bishop Corson said, "he's going to run a tight ship And he is not going to move until he knows where he is going. But he is going."

He warned churchmen against ·continuing to fight y~sterday's battles" and sllid churches must find ways of working together.

that nothing can stop," Bishop Corson said. "There are enemies of ecumenicity in all branches of the church. But under God and by the Holy Spirit we shall one day bring to a happy £lower­ ing the seeds planted by this wonderful Pope."

New Translation

C

The translation of the New Testament now used at Mass is a new one done by scholars who have translated

from the original Greek rather than from the later Latin

translation of the Greek. As such, the tran"slation is an

advance in scholarship and is to be commended as such.

Put there are still many who, while not criticizing it

em the grounds of faithfulness and accuracy of expression­

indeed, how many are competent to do this ?-still feel that it leaves something to be desired in its English.

This reaction may be the norm·al and expected one of those who have become accustomed to the translation that has been used for abQut a decade now. Familiar phrases are hard to surrender, and, as the late Monsignor Ronald . Knox .pointed out in a little book on the subject, everyone feels at heart that he is a Bible translator.

But the feeling still persists that this new translation efJacks cla8s." The language used at times is so fresh and clown to earth that it may throw new light on old passages, but one could' wish that this had been done with a little more felicity of ~xpression, in a more than pedestrian vein.

The work of tr~mslating the Bible for the use and .nderstanding of the present age is not just a work for Scripture and semitic language scholars. It is the work also of English scholars.

Answer to Student Restlessness

Yale University has come up with a scheme that might be the answer to student restlessness on the campus and student desire to get involved' with the problems of the present age. .

The difficulty of such a desire is that a student, by definition, is an unfinished product, one who is dwelling for a while in the ivory tower that he might be prepared to become involved with his era. And yet, as Sidney Hook once observed, "Good works off the campus do not substi­ tute for good work on the campus," and a student who spends much time on extra-campus involvement suffers usually in his school work.

So Yale, with the support of the Carnegie Corporation, is selecting students willing to allow five years instead of four of their degree. These carefully chosen students will spend their third yeat in underdeveloped regions of Africa, Asia and Latin America. (Perhaps in time they might even spend the year in places of need in this country.) They will not undertake any conventional foreign study experience.

Rather they will take a furlough from academic concerns to live and work in cultures and economics strange to their own background.

Since Yale will sponsor this activity, they will still be a part of the academic community but with full opportunity to get involved without their academic work suffering.

It seems like a good way for the restless student to have his cake and eat it too.

Persecution

A little news release from Vienna has related the information that a ;wjest in Lithuania has been sentenced to two years in jail because he gave Holy Communion to ten children at the request of their parents.

From time to time readers should do more than scan quickly or skip over such an item.

True, Lithuania is far away and the whole matter does not seem to touch th<.' lives of anyone in this country. But such an incident should point up the difficulties of brother Catholics~in living their faith and the ease with which this can be done here.

Pius XI once rl;lmarked that a persecution might almost be welcomed in the Church. For then the Faith would be tested and Catholics would be brought face to face with their inner selves and would be required to stand up and be counted. The sufferings of the early martyrs, of even ancestors a few generations back, seem unreal and part of a history-book account until there is a demand here and DOW of this generation for something of the heroic.

And for aU too many, the heroic is glorious and desir­ able when the subject of day-dreaming but quite otherwise in the cold light of fact.

Deplores Police Reaction To Defense of Brutality

By Msgr. George G. Higgins _The New York Herald Tribune reports that on Sun­ day, April 4, 6,000 Catholic members of the New York Police Department wildly applauded "a defense of Selma cops" by William F. Buckley, Jr., Editor of National Review. The 6,000 police­ these questions is that Mr. Buck­ men are members of the ley sandwiched his callous re­ Department's Holy Name marks about Mrs. Liuzzo be­ Society, w hie h . numbers tween generous layers of highly 10,000, and thp.y were having their 47th annual Communion Breakfast.. The fact that they h~d just. come from Mass at St. Patrick's Cathe­ dral made it all the more iron­ ical that they sh 0 u I d have ro'cked the New Y 0 r k Hilton's Grand Ballroom wit h applause when Buckley rlietorically contrasted the al­ leged "restraint" of Sheriff Ciark's helmeted and heavily armed policemen with the alleged "defiance" of Martin Luther King's defenseless and unarmed demonstrators.

How account for the fact that 6,000 of New York's finest stood up and clapped and cheered and whistled for more than a minute at the end of a speech in which Buckley had told them, in effect, that Mrs. Liuzzo of Detroit had nobody but herself to blame for being· shot down in cold blood by four vicious hoodlums?

After all, said Buckley with Olympian detachment, she and her fellow demonstrators had been warned by Governor Wal­ lace not to come to Alabama in the first place.

Embarrasses Mayor Whatever possessed 6,000 pro­ fessional custodians of law and order to laugh and then vigor­ ously applaud when Buckley asked: "Why did this occupy the front pages? Didn't the killing (of Mrs. Liuzzo) confirm what some elements in the South" had said would happen?

Why did 6,000 members of one of the best police departments in the world respond so emotional­ ly and so enthusiastically to a speech which, reportedly, was embarrassing to the Mayor of New York and distasteful to their own superior officer, Com.,. missioner Michael J. Murphy, who "sat through it all virtually expressionless?"

Ho. Rhetoric Presumably the answer 10

rhetorical but well deserved praise for policemen in general, whose lot today. he pointed out, "is especially galling."

Much of what he said in de­ fense of policemen needed to be said, but even this portion of his speech was interlarded with ex­ travagant statements which to put it very mildly, are not in' ac­ cord with the facts.

The fact that this rhetorical flourish was greeted wit h "stand-up applause" doesn't speak very wen for the judg­ ment 6f Mr. Buckley's enrap­ tured listeners.

Quotes Writer They know perfectly well that the vast majority of the American people-including Mr. Buckley, I should like to think -warmly applaud the ingenuity of the FBI agents who broke the Liuzzo case within a matter of hours.

They also knew-and so does Mr. Buckley, I suspect-that the majority of Americans will ap­ 'plaud with equal vigor if in­ genious FBI agents eventually succeed-as they probably will -in getting enough evidence to indict some of "the savage po­ licemen of Alabama" whose bru­ tality in breaking up the first of the Selma demonstrations shock­ ed the conscience of the entire civilized world.

To save Mr. Buckley the trouble of tracking down the source of the above description of some of Sheriff Clark's trigger happy minions let me say that it comes from a thoughtful article

by Gary Wills who contributes regularly to National Review.

Fellow Traveler I leave it to Mr. auckley to decide whether this makes his (and my) friend. Mr. Wills, eli­ gible for membership in the ranks of those "who rail un­ thinkingly at policemen * * *?"

Have we reached the stage where even one of Mr. Buckley's closest· ·:ollaborators is to be smeared as a dangerous fellow traveller just because he is hon­ estly convinced that police bru­ tality is an ugly crime?

Most Rev. Charles P. Grece -speaking to the assembly. He was reviewing the spiritual con­ dition of the church in America during which he stated that the future of the church in the United States, South America and the world in general de­ pends upon the important work of the CCD for its'very survival.

He stated that with the world population', boom' making its mark. the shortage of classrooms and the present and worsening shortage of qualified religious teachers to staff the present school system - all pose prob­ lems which the church must consider in the ecumenical coun­ - cil sessions which were to follow.

Pastors' Right Arms The bishop went on to stress that we, as members of a parish CCD. could not be expected to go out and perform great feats of heroism or of converting the masses as the apostles once did. .However, as the apostles were only 12, we, together with 11 other lay apostles of our own parishes,' could become the right arms of our pastors and thus cause the realization and renewal of faith within our par­ ishes which is so badly needed by our materialistically and atheistically inclined world.

-It is not humanly possible for pastors and the few curates that are available for parish work to spread themselves thin and yet reach the masses of parishioners who need the Church's help.

Li"ke a medical insurance policy, parishes cannot afford to be without a program of lay apos­ tleship.

Place of Christ A canonical establishment therefor~ is a mllst and then the scholastic and professional tal­ ent which lie dormant within parishes must be searched out and utilized in order to re-estab­ lish the rightful place of Christ in the Church, the home and in the hearts of all-Christian and non-Christian alike.

The Sisters of Our Lady of Victory of West Harwich are busy these days in their TV apostolate. They are producing the "Little Flock" program on Channel 6, New Bedford.

This coming Saturday's tele­ cast will again be of special in­ terest to parents who are cre­ ating table place settings for the Easter season. The center pieces, which this week will be for Easter day, may well be consid­ ered the linking lines of commu­ nication which parents may use in the religious educational de­ velopment of their children.

Plan Graduation ThE. more they are used, the better they are understood. The more they are understood, the better will the graces of God be appreciated and enjoyed in fam­ ily life.

Parishes with CCD Schools of Religion in session are begin­ ning to plan for appropriate graduation exercises for their graduating classes. Ceremonies commensurate with those ac­ corded Catholic elementary schools held in churches or par­ ish halls ana with all parents invited are recommended pro­ cedure.

A well planned graduation exericse is an integral part of the operational function of a CCD School of Religion. Why not think about it for your par­ ish this year?

The conflict between the Rev­ olution and the Church was .not only the con­

.sequence of s0­ cial and po-. litica! factors.

New tendencies jn philosophical, political .a n d religious points of· view were involved.

The conflict re­ sulted in vio­ lent anticlerical­ ism and even in persecutions. In Central Europe the revolution gave rise to new constitutional states, with sep­ aration of Church and State. It provoked the loss of the Papal territories at the end of the 19th century and the crisis between Italy and the Vatican, solved only in 1929.

In Latin America the move­ ment for independence at the beginning of the 19th century had close relation to the revo­ lutionary movement in Europe.

The religious problems in Latin America were intimately re­ lated to those stirred up by the French Revolution, even though the basic aims in Latin America were to ilust Spain and its colo­ nial administration. After inde­ pendence the relations between Church and State were estab­ lished on a completely new level.

In Latin America the anti-reli­ gious spirit of Europe's philo­ sophical movements also had great influence. Not only were traditional privileges abolished, but many other measures were taken to curb the position of the Church.

Heritage of Laicism The most characteristic phe­ nomenon inherited from the Revolution was laicism. This was the banner of the parties which little by little came into exis­ tence in the last century.

Tolerance was their key doc­ trine, but their followers iil­ vented a civil religion charac­ terized by an intolerance which preyed upon Latin American Catholicism. Laicism was a nat­ uralistic religion, without dog­ mas, which assumed a different character in each one of its fol­ lowers. All concurred, however, in their strong desire to snatch from the Catholic Church, one by one, the prerogatives which allowed her to bring religion into public life. The aim was to confine her to the sacristy.

The most important bastion behind which laicism became strong. was education. It became obligatory (8 good thing), but laicist. In the best of eases, re­ ligious instruction became a matter of free choice in public schools. However, in some coun­ tries, at least during certain periods, it was totally elimi­ nated. The Church was denied its right to teach religion to Catholic children. Though the old system perdured whereby the State paid the ecclesiastical

Struggle for New Hierarchy

With the coming of indepen­ dence, the continent counted six archdioceses and 38 dioceses.

Even if this number had ~n sufficient during. the colonial pe­ riod it was so no·longer, in view of the division of the continent into a nUmber of new countries.

The majority, of the 'pre-inde­ pendence bishops had ruled Metropolitan Sees. These bishops had left or had been expelled or had died without being re­ placed. .

However much disaster this caused the Church, Dr. Joseph A. Gagliano, a noted historian of the period, feels it is very im­ portant for us to understand the great effort that was made to overcome the impasses that brought about this situation. The simplest assertion that indepen­ dence resulted in a Church with­ out a hierarchy ignores the many years of extremely com­ plex diplomacy between the emerging nations of Latin Amer­ ica and the Holy See. The in­ surgents wanted papal recogni­ tion not only to facilitate the acceptance of their states in the community of nations but to maintain continuity in the hier­ archy. Several factors militated against an easy transition in the Latin American hierarchy. The papal diplomacy of Spain was directed against any recognition of the emerging nations. The revolutionaries demanded that the Spanish hierarchy in the New World be replaced by Latin Americans or at least bishops who were not opposed to their national aspirations.

Papal Viewpoint While Spain had insisted that changes in the hierarchy were subject to crown approval, the insurgents contended that the patronato, which the Crown had enjoyed for three centuries, was transmitted to the newly inde­ pendent States as an integral part of their national sovereign­ ty. The papacy, however, re­ garded the Wars of Independence as an opportunity to eliminate the patronato, and maintained that it was a privilege granted solely to the Spanish Crown which ended when the Ameri­ cans separated themselves from regal authority.

The prolonged and complex negotiations, coupled with the disruption of communications between the Holy See and the hierarchy, had an adverse effect on spiritual life in the New World. In Colombia, no less than six sees fell vacant. By 1829, there was not a single bishop left in Mexico. Eventually heed­ tDg the admonitions of Cardinal Consalvi that unless the Church settlement were reached sooo. a schism might arise in the New World and Americans would be exposed to "Methodists, Presby­ terians, and even sunworship­ pers," Leo XU decided to restore the hierarchy in Latin America, leaving the issue of patronage for subsequent concordats with the new nations.

Seminary president Dr. Rob­ ert T. Fauth said it is believed that this will be the first time a Catholic cardinal has addressed -the graduating class of a Prot­ estant seminary. "'We are delighted that Cardi­ nal Ritter should be the person to do this, for we have come to know him as a dedicated and effective proponent of the ecu­ menical spirit and as a leader who believes that ecumenism mast be made real among us if it is to have any meaning at all,..

The occasion will also mark the first time in history that a United Church of Christ semi­ nary has bestowed an honorary doctorate of divinity on a Cath­ olic prelate.

Grandma's Easter Eggs Fall

Somewhat Short' of Sanctity

By Mary Tinley Daly Happy Easter to all readers of this column! And may Y011 keep your family E'aster traditions intact. Ours shift.

Of course, substantial tradition remains: recognition that Easter is the principal feast of the eccleciastical year; a real endup of Lent with Holy with names and messages and Week practices dating back, maybe even cute designs for preparation for the mid­ every one of the grandchildren I night liturgical service.

First set-back was at the "any As to the peripheral family Easter eustoms, well, these change at our house.Some­ how, Christmas eustoms h a v e become frozen, delight­ fully frozen, and we all 'know what to expect.

But, with Eas­ ter, they are as moveable as the feast itself. Ev­ ery year we try something new.

Time was, when a dozen or so eggs could be colored, hidden around the various rooms, and at the sound of a whistle all children would scurry to find what the Easter Bunny had left for them. We would have dinner, with a centerpiece of delicate eggshells in pastel colors, hung from spring tendrils. That part still prevails. Eggshells, of course, are garnered from a breath-consuming process dur­ ing Holy Week: prick both ends of the raw egg with an ice pick, blow, blow, blow. Many, many meals of Lenten scrambled eggs are consumed to achieve that centerpiece.

Nowadays, we have to hard­ boil and color far more eggs than in the past but we still have our egg hunt, our eggshell center­ piece. Thus it shall be, God willing, again this year.

Last year, speaking of chang­ ing customs, we heard of a trick, "sure to intrigue chil<lren." All you had to do, said the news­ paper article, was dissolve one ounce of alum in one-half pint of vinegar. ("you can 'buy alum in any drug store") was the par­ enthetically-phrased addendum.

Then, you dip a small pointed brush in the solution and write on the shell. Let the solution dry thoroughy. Then, cook the eggs in simmering water for about 15 minutes. There Will be no trace of writing on. the shell when the eggs are served. But inside (and here's what got us on that sacret-message kick), on the hard-cooked, egg, the writing or design 'will appear bright and clear! ' Exclamation points' at'e 1be writer's, not ours. , With grandmotherly enthusi­ asm, we resolved to give new incentive to those Easter eggs.

We'd say Happy Easter, complete

drug store." Seems alum comes not in one-ounce containers, three ounces being the smallest.

Oh, well, easy arithmetic and we could always use the extra alum for pickles or something.

We proportioned the alum­ vinegar solution, found a small pointed brush and set forth on the exciting task of Writing those cute messages. Frustration No: 2: We couldn't see what we were writing, the solution wouldn't stay put on the rounded eggshell, but we persisted, with complete confidence in the printed word, that the message would somehow come through ''bright and clear."

After the "thorough drying" we obediently simmered the eggs and dyed them.

Unfortunately, at the egg hunt, we mentioned to the chil­ dren that secret messages were to be found inside. Then began the game of "egg picking," test­ ing the strength of the shells by knocking one egg against an­ other. "Let's see what the Easter Bunny wrote inside." (''I betcha Gramma wrote it" from the skeptical.)

Eggshells were scattered about the whole house. we were clean­ ing them up for days, as each grandchild tried to find the "secret messages." Granted, a few came through "bright and clear," though they weren't half as bright as Grandma had In­ tended and very few were clear: a smeared "Hi," a doUbtful "Happy Easter/' a few slithery names.

The one Sean found was pretty good: "Hello, Sean" was the In­ tended message. Only the "0" was missing from the saluta­ tion - --

By Joseph and Marilyn Roderick There is one spot in my garden which drove me crazy lor the first two years we were in our house. It is on the northeast corner of the house and directly under a leaky gutter. The water drips continually on the soil, which is mostly clay causing it to brought to all believers, the become rock-hard and al­ Christians of that time outfitted most impossible to grow any­ themselves in new clothes and thing in. I tried to fix the it was thought that all those who could afford to buy a new outfit for Easter Sunday but refused to do so would be beset with ill­ fortune. This may be a good argument to use on hubby when the May bills come in. " To show off this finery we also tum to Europe, for it was there that on this day the men and women of the parishes would march in an orderly procession through the towns and into the open country. A decorated cru­ cifix or an Easter candle was ."1 carried at the head of the group.

This custom has become our Easter Parade.

The following cake recipe is one I consider extra special and duly fitting for such an impor­ tant occasion as Easter Sunday. j After a long period of fast, our i husbands deserve a real luscious cake following Easter Sunday dinner.

So I had no alternative but to find something that would grow under the most adverse condi­ tions. '. Ajuga solved tQe problem.

Ajuga (sometimes called bugle or bugle-weed) Is a groundcover which is found mostly in rock gardens. It is sman and not par­ ticularly 'pretty except when it is In flower. I have a purple flow­ ered variety although it is avail-, able in pink and white. The flower appears in May and june, amall six to eight inch spikes in dense whorls of color. Aside from the flower, however, Ajuga does serve the, purpose of cover­ Ing a bare spot in the garden. , These little plants have been Indestructible for me, although they do suffer from a disease, ealled rot crown, a fungus dis­ ease, which is capable of wiping out a whole section in a few days. Thus far I have -been apared this problem so I can ~y hope for the best.

Ajuga is not particular as to lIOil, will grow in partial shade, densE' shade or in full sun. It neem- no special attention except _ occasional thinning out since • spreads rather rapidly. In fact, • friE'nd of mine has it growing In his lawn and uses this as an excuse not to cut his lawn while the ajuga is in bloom.

This is one of those little plants for the lazy gardener. It z.equires no care, is green, flow­ an and ~roduces quickly. It 1& perfect for the shady spot where nothing seems to grow or the bank which cannot hold the soil long enough for a plant to set rooted. I have seen these at the nurseries which specialize in perennials for as little as 25 cents a plant, which is little enough to pay to be rid of a bare 1P0t in the garden.

In the Kitchen The long period of waiting is over as the Easter Vigil ends and we greet the risen Christ. Our homes are sparkling, the scent of Spring flowers fills the air and the long, bleak forlorn days of Winter have passed. It is truly with thankful hearts that we celebrate Easter Sunday.

This year we are fortunate. because of the lateness·of Easter, In having in addition to the tra­ ditional Easter lily, daffodils and forsythia to bring sunshine into our homes. One article I read recently advocated preparing an Baster wreath similar to Christ­ mas wreaths made out of Spring flower.s, which sounded like a Jlvel~ idea to me. This may Prove to be too ambitious a project at this time of the yeJU' but the presence of any form of flower in the home should be pleasant this Easter. , As we step' forth to Mass in the Easter finery that mothers IIl1 over the Diocese have ,been preparing and choosing for their families, few of us realize that 1Fe are reliving a custom that ~gan in medieval times and which does have religious signif­ Icance.

Asserts Council Lays Foundation For Laity Role SAGINAW (NC)-Though laymen have had little to do with the current ecumen­ ical council, it has laid the Ilroundwork for lay representa­ tion in a future council, should one be held in "the next genera­ tion or so."

This view was expressed here in Michigan by Msgr. George C. Higgins, director of the National Catholic Welfare Conference's Social Action Department and a council expert.

Msgr. Higgins, lecturing at St. Paul Seminary on the council and the laity, said that by and large laymen have not been represented at the Second Vati­ can Council "except in a token way" Better Represented But, he added, "if another council is held in the next gen­ eration or so, laymen will be much better represented. The groundwork has been laid."

He called the selection of representative laymen as coun­ cil observers as an "almost impossible problem."

While present lay observers might be criticIzed as being unrepresenta­ tive of laymen generally, he saH, "this would hold true DO matter wno was appointed."

ThE" . monsignor said it will take "a good deal of time" to work out all the "implications" on the lay apostolate suggested by the ecumenical council's con­ stitutIon on the Church. He predicted that the council will adopt a schema on the lay apos­ 10late this Fall but that it will "fall short of what is desired by some."

Dialogue With Clergy Solutions to problems about the layman's role in the Church, he said, will not be achieved until "laymen in dialogue with bish0ps and priests clarify their own thinking."

Msgr. Higgins said the .lay apostolate is "too often thought . of as a strictly religious move­ ment under the direction of bishops and priests."

"We need a much clearer un­ derstanding," hE' said, "that all laymen, whether in organiza­ tions or not, are expected to be apostles ... Their work is to be earrkd out in the fields in which they work."

Predicts Diplomatic Ties With Vatican CINCINNATI (NC)-A jour­ nalist veteran of the Vatican best characterized lack of offi­ cial U. S.-Vatican ties as a "gap' in our diplomatic defenses."

Barrett McGurn, Rome corre­ spondent of the New York Her­ ald Tribune for 13 years, pre­ dicted here "it won't be many years before we do have such a representative. It's not a mat­ ter of doing homage to the Pope," he told Xavier University students, but simply one of keeping diplomatic channels open."

He said some 50 other nations maintain diplomatic relations with the Holy See. He observed "rival propagandists sometimes aim the clarity of the American position on issues."

Legion Book List Twenty books are listed in the Spring edition of "Worthwhile 11001<:;0," issued quarterly by New Bedford Curia of the Legion of Mary Readers are asked to re­ quest. their public libraries to acqUIre these t:t1e:: of Catholic lIntert:st.

Says Psychology Can Be Helpful To Theology

THE ANCHOR Thll'rs./ April 15, 1965

1!

CINCINNATI (NC)-Psy­ ehology has much to tel: moral theologians, a psychol­ ogist told an audience that included priests and seminarians he"re.

Dr V.J. Bieliauskas, head of the Xavier University psychol­ ogy department. said that today" it is "almost impossible for any­ one dealing with or judging human conduct to be effective" without a grasp of psychology's findings about motivation.

Bieliauskas, speaking ina Catholic lecture series, said it can be "very harmful" to assume that man is always a free agent.

For example, he said, an individ­ ual suffering from extreme anx­ iety may lie to protect himself and may be able to make a cor­ rect choice only with the help of a psychologist or psychiatrist.

Critical He was critical of the concept of will power, saying that "even serious people think that the so­ called will' power can be in­ creased by certain physical ex­ ercises such as pushups, cold showers, food deprivation and so on."

What is needed instead, he said, is not the "will power ap­ proach to motivation but a train­ ing to intellectual understand­ ing of values."

He said he considers that the task of the psychologist is to "help the individual to become free * '" * in order to prepare him for making a choice." ..It is necessary to prepare people even as children for free­ dom and responsibility," he said, adding: "I am afraid this cannot be done and will not be done through a rigid, punitive * • ap­ proach to education."

Interracial School Visits Beneficial AKRON, (NC)-It's too late tv expect grown-ups" to start doing anything about racial justice, the thoughtful eight-grader de­ clared. "If we're ever going to get out of this mess of race against "race, it will be up tct kids--I mean students, like us."

The speaker was :J;,.andis Chris,,: tian, host and guide for one of the 14 children from all-white Holy Family School in nearby Stow who were returning an interracial visit at st. Peter's School in Akron, Ohio. St. Peter's has 67 Negroes in a total enrollment of 539.

A white boy, Kenneth Ma­ grath of Holy Family, said he had never known a Negro until the interracial visits. Now he thinks "things can be done with us young people that can't be done with adults."

Ask Clergymen Join Anti-Poverty War JACKSON (NC) - The Eco­ nomic Opportunity Act was the subject of two clergy confer­ ences in Mississippi sponsored

by Bishop Richard Oliver Gerow of Natchez-Jackson to inform clergymen about the act, with particular reference to commu­ nity action programs.

Over 400 invitations were sent to other Christian clergymen of the Jackson and Biloxi areas where the meetings were held.

All Catholic priests in Mississip­ pi attended.

CARLOAD FACTORY PURCHASE Famous Contemporary Bedrooms @ Prelates Stress Social Equality For All Men TOLEDO (NC) - Bishop (;eorge J. Rehring of Toledo has called for adoption of effective measures to secure 'ustice for all men in housing, employment and opportunities for education.

In a letter to clergy, Religious ad laity, the bishop said: "In pursuing the objectivea eI. justice, we cannot stop when we have achieved them partially. yV~ must continue to exert our­ selves to the utmost for the re­ moval of every vestige of in­ ~tice."

'.r

"The road ahead will not al­ ways be pleasant," said the pre­ late. "I fear it holds surprises for many of us. It may even con­ front us with exasperating sit­ uations and may occasion some eooling off of friendships that w~ sincerely cherish. However, justice moderated by the Divne Law of fraternal charity must re­ main unshakably our guiding principle."

Bishop Rehring took note of the e1vil rights demonstrations in lOuthern states. He said: Resent Meddling "Many of the old Southerners ere indignant at what they con­ lider 'a meddling in their affairs and a lack of ~onsideration for their feelings and convictions.'

"However, it must be said In all honesty that sympathizers, at home and on the scene, were actuated by only one motive, namely, to come to the cry of the distressed and to aid them in solving their problems. So far as my knowledge goes, partici­ pants from this locality conduc..;. ted themselves in a reasonable and , therefore. praiseworthy. eommendable m~ner."

Mourn Loss of Cardinal M'eyer

Continued from Page One

"

"He was neither ultra liberal nor ultra consenative," he -said.

"He was strictly objective, keen­ ly analytical and firmly bal­ ancerl in all his views. In the opini0ns of many, the cardinal 'camr of age' during the last ses­ sion of the council * (, '" His American confreres were proud of him and th<>ir pride was matcl,ed by the high esteem of bishops from every part of the world" Th~ archbishop said Cardinal Meypr's death represented the loss of "a budding and prudent leadprship in the American Church ':' * * Messages of condo­ lence from national figures everywhere give indication that our country shares our Church's loss."· Strl"ssing the cardinal's con­ eern {or human values, he saidl. that "his involvement in social questions was part of his con­ eept C'f what he owed all God's ereatures. His educational pro­ grams were directed to provid­ ing hcilities for learning, but he saw beyond mere buildings to the individual boy and girl be­ ing prepared for Christian living.

"He int.roduceo administrative innovations, hoping they would makf' the Church of Chicago more efficient in its operation, but he recognized that parishes, pastors, people must be primary beneficiaries. In all things he was the conscientious church­ man, striving to make God's kingdom come, to make it real and vital in the hearts and lives of men."

Pontifical Requiem Mass for the reserved scholar who became head of the nation's largest Catholic diocese and a leader at the <>cumenical council, was of­ fered Tuesday in Holy Name cathedral.

Cardinal Meyer, 62, died lIuJetly Friday in Mercy Hospi­ tal, where he remained for six weeks after undergoing surgery Feb 25 for a brain tumor. He had heen in a general decline for nearly a week and two days before his death lapsed into a coma, from which he did not awake.

Celebrant of the Requiem Mass was Auxiliary Bishop Cletl's F. O'Donnell of Chicago, vicar general of the archdiocese and a personal friend of .the eardiJ.,al. .

Hundreds of dignitaries of church and state crowded the eathedral for the Requiem Mass.

On hand were four of the five living U. S. cardinals - Francis Cardinal Spellman of New York, Jamf':> Cardinal McIntyre of Los AngEles, Joseph Cardinal Ritter of St. Louis, and Lawrence Car­ dina't Shf'han of Baltimore - as well as Paul Emile CardinaI Leg<>l of Montreal. Unable to atter.ri was Richard Cardinal Cushing of Boston, who is re­ covering from recent major in­ testinal surgery.

A tall (six feet, two inches). pipe-smoking intellectual, Car­ dinal Meyer had headed the Chicago archdiocese for six and a half years-since November, 1958. Before that he was Arch­ bishop of Milwaukee from 1953 to 1958 and Bishop of Superior, Wis., from 1946 to 1953.

His earlier career was that of • seminary professor and rector, and he retained the outlook and demeanor of a scholar through­ out his life.

Known· as an efficient admin­ Istrator and a vigorous advocate of racial justice, he received the most extensive publicity of his career for his role at the ecum­ enical council, particularly dur­ lag the third session last year.

He emerged as one of the chief IUDPorters of the council's pro­

posed declaration on religious liberty.

Albert Gregory Meyer was born March 9, 1903, in Milwau­ kee, the third child of Peter James Meyer, a grocer, and Mathilda Thelen Meyer. Two other sons became business ex­ ecutives and the family's two daughters both became nuns.

As a small boy the future car­ dinal used to play at being a priest, using an old table as an altar. Throughout his grade school years he insisted that he would be a priest when he grew up.

At the age of 14 he entered St. Francis Seminary, Milwau­ kee, where he completed high school and two years of college.

Then he was chosen for further studies at the North American College in Rome.

Ordained there July 11, 1926, he continued his studies at the Pontifical Biblical Institute. In 1930 he returned to the United States and was appointed curate at St. Joseph's parish in Wau­ kesha, Wis. In the Fall of 1931, Father Meyer was assigned to St. Fran­ cis Seminary where he was to spend the next 15 years-first as a teacher of religion, Greek.

Latin, Biblical archaeology, dog­ ma and Scripture, and later, from 1937 on, as rector.

In 1946 Pope Pius XII named him Bishop of Superior in north­ eastern Wisconsin. He was con­ secrated in April and enthroned in May. Seven years later Pope Pius appointed him Archbishop of Milwaukee, and he was en­ throned there Sept. 28, 1953.

There he stayed until his pro­ motion to the Chicago archdio­ cese in 1958. He was enthroned Nov. 16 of that year.

One y~ar later Pop~ John named him a cardinal. He re­ ceived the red hat in Rome on Dec. 14, 1959. Last November Pope Paul appointed him to the Sacred Congregation of the Holy Office, the Vatican body charged with safeguarding the purity of Catholic faith and morals. In a departure from tradition he was not required to leave his See and reside in Rome.

COLUMBUS (NC)-Deep concern for ecumenism and civil rights, two major issues of the time, has been expres­ sed by Bishop John J, Carberry in his first public pronounce­ ment as the new spiritual head of 170,000 Catholics in the C0­ lumbus Diocese.

Speaking of civil rights, Bish­ op Carberry reminded that the "Good Shepherd must be de­ voted to all his sheep and seek the good of each and every one."

He called on "men of good wiD everywhere" to. seek through prayer and action to obtain for all citizens political equali~ fair education and economic 0p­ portunities, good housing with­ out exploitation, and a fuD chance for social advancement."

"For all men in the true spirit of the American heritage, civil rights and social justice must not only be defended in theory but assured in practice," he said.

VALLETTA (NC) - Knights of Malta frore all parts of the world will gather in this city in September to mark the fourth centenary of a famous siege in which the knights repulsed a Moslem attempt to capture the island.

Now an honorary society of about 9,000 members with head­ quarters in Rome, the Knights of Malta were once a Mediter­ ranean power with fortresses in Palestine, Tripoli,. Rhodes and Malta. ­ ][n 1565, about 8,000 knights and Maltese headed by Grand Master Jean de la Valette-who gave his name to the island­ republic's present capital- held

Catholic colleges rather than es­ tablishing new ones, and seek ways to make Catholic influence felt on secular campuses.

He spoke at the opening ses­ s~on of a six-day workshop that drew officials of 10 colleges conducted by the Sisters of Mercy of the Union and heads of other Sisters of Mercy commu­ nities.

Archbishop Alter said increas­ ing college enrollment in the coming decade and a thinning out of financial resources and personnel "pose a problem which requires a decision with respect to policy."

"I'm convinced," he said, "that it is quite beyond our financial resources to continually expand our college program."

Newman Apostolate "It would be unwise for us to make an effort to provide for all applicants from Catholic schools asking admission to our col­ leges," he said.

"Instead, therefore, we ought to put more emphasis on making our existing colleges of the high­ est quality-we ought to do a first class job in the colleges now in existence."

Archbishop Alter said he had no intention of being "cold­ hearted" toward the Catholic students at non-Catholic colleges and universities.

Says Death-Bed Conversion Is Exceptional Phenomenon

By Rev. Joheph T. McGloin, S. J. The poor old character was dying, no doubt of that.

The trouble was that he had been out of the Church for years, and it didn't look like he was going to get back in under the wire. His relatives had argued with him until there were no more arguTime Uncertain m~nts, and very little breath, Ordinarily, we don't know too lef.t. Over and over again, he much about the time of our came up with the old inani- death. either. It can come at any ties,. "God doesn't want me any .more. It's too late." A few priests haq also tried to talk sense to the: man, but wit.h no luck.

If anything, in fact, he seemed

ilIt get more

stubborn as the

end drew closer

and closer. Fin­

ally a young

.~ priest, a friend of one of the relatives, was called in. Since this young priest was brand new and almost com­ pletely inexperienced, every­ body figured he'd fail worse than all the others.

As expected, the young priest ·was met with nothing but stub­ bornness and the command, in fact, to "get outi' He didn't get out, however, but only went over tIo the corner, a short distance from the bed, drew up a chair, and sat staring at the man.

Sit and Watch Now this, quite naturally, got the dying man a bit nervous, un­ til he finally yelled .at the priest to get out, since he obviously wasn't going to do any good anyhow. "Why," he demanded, "are you wasting your time sit­ ting around here watching me?

I'm not going to have anything to do with you or the Church and that's final."

The young priest didn't blink, but just sat calmly staring, as he tried, hesitantly, to explain.

"You see," he said, "I'm a1 very young priest. :r haven't had a lot of experience--I've never seen anyone go to hell, for instance.

So, if you don't mind, I'd sort of like to sit here and watch you do it" I can't tell you whether or not the story had a happy ending. I can't even assure you that it's· a true story. But, true or not, it does contain one startling, earth­ shaking truth. You hear lots of stories about death-bed conver­ sions about people finally turn­ ing back to God at the last mo­ ment, when they had spent a ,:". lifetime lookin~ the other way.

Now such stories are, indeed, wonderful, but the fact is that the death-bed conversion is an exceptional phenomenon, and does not always happen by any means Mysterious Thing There are lots of things uncer­ tain about death. It's a myste­ rious thing. And this is, undoubt­ edly, why we fear it. We don't, after all, have many authorities on the subject Lazarus might have been one, but he's left us no record of his impressions.

We not only don't know much about how death operates, but we're not even too well informed on just what it is. We've all seen dead people·, mnybe even seen some actually die. And we know that some life principle has gone out of them, that "they" are sim­ piy no longer present before us.

We know, too, that this life principle is theIr soul, and we know by faith that they have gone before God to be judged, to· be welcomed or cast aside.

Their body is, just now, only a very loosely joined amount of chemicals.

time, sooner or later. Young peo­ pie, almost invariabdly, seem to think that death is the exclusive prerogative of the old, and that only the very old are eligible for death.

,

By Fred Bartek; , Scholastic baseball fans will see a lot of good entertain­ ment and some mighty fine games this Spring if the early season encounters are a harbinger for the remainder of the championship calendar. And, wht1e the diamond enthusiasts have their eyes glued on Gus D'Rubio's Taunton Her­ their favorites, major league rings will be making their last scouts will be in the stands appearance in Fairhaven today to ascertain the capabilities in BCl;. competition since Fair­ of the area's most likely pros­ pects. Already, it is rumored,

one American League club is giving the 'fine eye' to a catcher for one, .of the smaller schools in thE' northern section of the county. Ricky Castro gained the honor of being the first Massachu­ setts slab artist to hurl a no-hit, no-run game as he twirled the Diman Vocational aggregation of Fall River to a 10-0 victory over Apponequet Regional High in. the season's opener.

Picking up where he left off last year, Castro looks like the best moundsman in the Narry League, at the moment. Castro, who was the loop's strikeout king in '64, disposed of 15 of the 25 batters he faced in the opener...

Case High of Swansea, seeking. to annex its second straight con­ quest of the Narry League", travels to Westport next Mon­ day.

Parochials Meet Raiders ThE" Cardinal" had an easy time in the opener, pounding' Holy Family. of New Bedford,' 14-2. Joe Kirkman corralled' most of the honors in the Swan- ' sea team's triumph as he whiffed 11 in his two-hit performance.

He also contributed to his club's runproduction with a two-run homer. .

Thwarted in its initial start, Somerset confronts Diman of Fall River today Prevost topped the Raiders, 4-1, in the opener.

It is expected either Ron.Boiselle or Roland Chagnon will hurl for Somerset. They combined to hold Prevost to four hits in the opener.

The Dighton-Rehoboth Fal­ cons. who eked out a close 2-0 victory in the opener at the ex­ pense of Old Rochester, tackle Apponequet at Lakeville today.

Two first innin& runs accounted for all the scoring in the Falcons win behind Dave Varley who fanned nine losers. Lou Perry of Old Rochester pitched well over the entire route after a shaky first inning when he walked two and gave up a single to Glenn Field.

Durfee Hosts Stang Prevost, which looked a little weak with the stick against Somerset, will be at home today with Westport. ~he Parochials play Dighton-Rehoboth at the latter's field on Monday. Ron Costa did a fine job on the mound in Prevost's opener, fan­ ning nine as ag~inst four passes.

Urges Courage In RcceCrisi$ NEW HAVEN (NC}-Amer-o icans were challenged here to use less prudence and more moral courage in meeting the country's racial problems by Father William J. Kenealy, S.J.. ' professor at Boston College law school.

He told some 2,000 persons at the Archbishop's Conference OD Human Rights in YalE! Univer­ sity: "In the name of pruden.ce we are urged to pursue the CMl­ tious course of gradualism. It is 'true that a certain amount· of gradualism, even in the practice of justice and charity, unfortu­ ?ately seems to be necessary, or m any event inevitable.

But Negroes, as other men. grow old. How long must they wait? How long must their chil­ dren wait? Or their grandchil­ dren?

"All the weak and flabby human inclinations of laziness, selfishness, timinity. complacen­ cy and conformism tend to strengthen the thesis of gradual­ ism and to support the plea of pseudo-prudence. But the great cardinal virtue of prudence has nothing. whatsoever to do with these pitiable moral weaknesses.

Prudence is not cowardice."

Twice befGre, in 1942 and 1961, the court has been asked to Gtrike down the Connecticut laws against bh·th control.
