Catholic Bishops Giv~ U~timatum

l'@'

lh@d~srn@ SALISBURY (NC)-Rhodlesia's Catholic bishops have warned that all Catho~ic educational and social

institutions in the country will be closed if the new Land Tenure Act is enforced. The bishops' ultimatum, in the form of a statement signed by five bishops, was sent to members of Prime Minister Ian D. Smith's cabinet. It foIlowed a joint meeting by leaders of most of Rhodesia's Christian churches, who agreed to defy the land act, which is part of the new republic's constitution and went into effect March 2. The complex Land Tenure Act essentiaIly divides Rhodesia into two separate areas, one totaling 44.9 million acres for whites and another of 45.2 million acres for black Africans. The act forbids "occupation" of 'an area by the other race. The Catholic bishops had earlier protested against the land law in a pastoral letter issued March 17. In it they announced defiance of government efforts to force Church support for its racial segregation measures. A week after the April 10 general elections in Rhodesia, which retained Smith's ruling Rhodesian Front party in power by an overwhelming vote, the National Council of the Catholic Laity affirmed its support of the stand taken by the bishops against the Land Tenure Act and W'ged feIlow laymen to join its efforts "to have the plea of the bishops heard." Entrench Separation The joint statement issued at the meeting of Christian ~eaders was signed by Catholics and 11 other Christian denominational representatives. It supported the Catholic bishops' statements and said that "the new constitution and the Land Tenure Act cannot be reconciled with the Christian faith, since they entrench separation and discrimination solely on the basis of race." The statement said the Christian churches will disobey certain provisions of the land act, particularly by refusing to register as voluntary organizations, a requirement necessary for a church to own land or occupy land in both of the designed racial areas. They said this in the face of warnings that· refusal to register could result in the confiscation of all their material possessions. There was no immediate indication of government reaction to the Catholic bishops and other Christian leaders.

Blame Abortion Law for Sui,cides

THE ANCHORThurs., May 28, 1910

Archbishop Calls Cincinnati Synod

LONDON (NC) - Dr. Charles Rickards, a Catholic gynecologist, was so upset by Britain's new abortion law that he drowned himself, an inquest was told here. Dr. Rickards, 61, had confided in his brother that he was in despair because of the introduction of the act, the inquest heard. His brother, Dr. James Rickards, an aesthetist, told the coroner: "He was a devout Catholic and he said that this statute put him and many others with strong religious beliefs upon the horns of a terrible dilemma." The coroner recorded a verdict that Dr. Rickards took his life while his mind was disturbed. At another suicide inquest in London, Mrs. Mary Moruzzi, aged 33, was said to have killed herself after having a legal abortion. Her huscband, Roger, told the inquest: "Afterward she felt very guilty and told me she would be punished for having the abortion, that something would happen to me and she would be left with nothing." The woman had the abortion on the grounds that she could not face that thought of her Hfe being disrupted by a first baby. She took an overdose of drugs.

CINCINNATI (NC)-Archbishop Paul F. Leibold convoked the sixth synod of the Cincinnati archdiocese at an essembly of the Archdiocesan' Council of the , Laity, with "renewal 'in Christ" 'as its major goal and Mary, Mother of the Church, as its patroness. He told some !. ,200 priests, Religious and lay people he expects the synod to be completed in time for the l50th anniversary of the archdiocese in 1971. He said non-Catholics may be invited to contribute some help in considerations by the synod. A synod is convoked to study and take action on matters affecting the life and mission of the Church in a diocese. The head of the diocese is the sole legislator, empowered to authorize synodal decrees. Archbishop 'Leibold recalled the archdiocese's five previous synods were held in 1865, 1886, 1898, 1920 and 1954. He declared: "Our intention is not to abrogate all that has gone before and make radical changes in the whole diocesan program and the excellent apostolate we are all enjoying because of the magnificent work and organization of those who have gone before us. We certainly intend to conform with all official Church legislation as found in the Code of Canon Law .and all subsequent decrees." "But our precise purpose," he continued, "is that in the conciliar spirit of renewal, we will develop a set of guidelines for the diocese in full accordance with the spirit and teachings of the constitutions, decrees and declarations of the Second Vatican Council."

Accuses Clergy Of Subversion RIO DE JANEIRO (NC)-An army investigator who for two years has been in charge of uncovering alleged subv.ersion among the clergy in Brazil, has recommenrled' that ,two prelates and fOl,lr priests be indicted. Col: Euclides Oliveira Figueiredo reported that under a national security 'law the six "are probably implicated" in various subversive activities. His report named Archbishop Joao Rezende Costa, S.D.B., of Belo Horizonte and his auxiliary, Bishop Serafim Fernandes de Araujo, and Fathers Antonio AImedia Soares' and Francisco de Araujo of Sao Paulo, Father AI~ fonso Ritte of Porto Alegre, and Father Jose Comblin, a Belgian priest working in Recife. The colonel's report also listed 36 other priests wl\o had "connections and relations with all the leftist movements, including the Communist party." Similar charges were made against a number of Catholic lay leaders. Many of the priests cited in the report were moderators of branches of the Young Christian Workers (JOC), the Catholic Youth Organization (JEC) and the Catholic University Students Federation (JUC). These groups are now dormant.

Minnesota Bishops Back School Aid ST. PAUL (NC)-Bishops of Minnesota six 'Catholic dioceses have asked Catholic families in the state to support efforts of the Citizens for Educational Freedom to get state aid for nonpublic schools. ~itizen's officials have planned both Catholic and Protestant drives "intended to make the people of. Minnesota aware of the serious financial crisis of Minnesota's non-public schools and the consequences should they eventually close." Coadjutor Archbishop Leo C. Byrne of St.. Paul-Minneapolis and the bishops pf the state's five other dioceses joined to designate May 24 as Citizens for Educational Freedom day.

American Fears Imprasses Maltese Visitor SAN FRANCISCO (NC) - A Maltese bishop, on tour of the United States, has, contrasted sharply what he described as the fears and insecurities he has observed in America with the serenity of his island' home. Bishop Nicolaus Cauchi, the apostolic administrator of Gozo -one of Malta's offshore islands, said here, "I always thought of the U. S. as a country of free(jom, but I sense that there is not freedom from fear." Americans, he said, appear insecure and distrustful toward eacp other. Contrasting the situation here with conditions on Gozo, the bishop said, "We have a prison on our little island that has been closed for 20 years because of lack of prisoners." "The American laity seem to be more perplexed by new ideas in the Church," he said. Even in o

Priest to Serve , On Two Faculties NEW YORK (NC)-Two nationally known seminariesÂˇ:here, one Catholic and one Protestant, have made the unprecedented step of appointing a priest to serve on both faculties. Father Raymond E. Brown, S.S., will become professor of biblical studies, effective July 1971, at both the interdenominational Union Theological Seminary and the Jesuits' Woodstock College.

the large cities of AustraliaSydney and Brisbane - I found the people more secure. I wonder whether parents here are educating their children enough in the virtue of respect." Bishop Cauchi said he was impressed with the solidarity of the American bishops with the Holy See and with their determination "to hold fast in the storm." He was referring obviously to some of the dissention accompanying renewal in the Church. The apostolic administrator has been touring the United States visiting cities which have sizeable communities of Maltese migrants. The largest of these

are San Francisco-Oakland, New York, Detroit and Toronto.

Population and Environment Those who keep insisting that the growth of popul~tion is the cause of all man's pr:esent troubles, including environmental pollutjon, would do well to heed the words of Dr:Rene DuBos, the prize-winning virologist. He said that America could not survive with only two children to a family.

DUBUQUE (NC)-The regents of a small liberal arts college for men here have declared that "physical force

Speaking on the environmental problems, Dr. DUBos pointed out that population increased at the' rate of. one per cent a year while' pollution increas~d at the -rat:e of nine per cent a year. And he said that even jf the population growth were at zero, this would still not solve the' environmental problem. Speaking to a group of scientists and humanists,' Dr. DuBos said that adults 'must see and interact with children, and two children in a family would not leave enoughchildten in the country for this to take place. "Already tpere are not enough children for adults to see. In some cities you walk, around and never see children. That's probably part of t.he reason .for the generation gap." , , Wise. words from a wise man.,

Shambles The spiritual leader of the 3.2 .million member Un,ited Presbyterian' Church in the United States, has, s~id that "theology today is in a shambles-that's the long and short of it." To the man in the pew, said Dr. George E. Sweazey, "all the certainties seem'tQ be coming loose." i ,

The statement was part of a "position paper," released reGently by the rege.nts of Loras College, oldest college in Iowa, established in 1839 by Dubuque's first Ordinary, Bishop Mathias Loras. The regents issued the statement "to reaffirm the makeup, duties an dobligations", of the colleg~. It was signed by Archbishop James J, Byrne of Duo buque, college chancellor, and Donald T. Hines and James B. Cain, chairman and secretary of the board, respectively. , Purpose of the college is "the discovery, transmission and integration of knowledge within the liberal arts tradition and within a Catholic environment," the regents said. Faculty Support The position paper calls the board of regents "the supreme authority in the governance of Loras College," with the presi. dent of the college its "executive arm," in charge of "total administration of the college." But since the college is "largely the community of students, teachers and administrators," the statement says, "it is not the intent of the board 'of regents to commit the col1ege community to future policies and actions without the components of the community participating in discussions leading to such com, mitments." Faculty participation in governing the college "should be establishcJ at every level where faculty responsibility is present," the statement says. But faculty members are expected to "give cooperation and loyal support" to admini!;ltrative or policy deci.sions made by the president and the board. . Academic Freedom "Persistent public action by a faculty member which is inconsistent with the basic philosophy and policies of Loras College constitutes a sufficient reason for the separation of that individual from the college community," t,he statement says. That ..students are guaranteed "legitimate" freedom _of expression is a "firm conviction" of the board, "provided there ,is an equal willingness to listen seriously and to accept the decisions of ,the administration, made after all parties are heard." The regents accept "the principle of academic freedom." But they stipulate that Loras College "is and will continue to be a CathOlic college and the mag-. isterium (teaching authority) of the Church may not be disregarded in classroom teaching."

Most significant decrease was in the number of Catholics' in the nation. The 1970 directory reported 47,872,089 U. S. Catholics-a numerical decrease of 1,149 from last year's directory and a proportional decrease in percentage of Catholics in the total population. They now number 23.5 per cent of the coun· try's 203,616,268 population. The total Catholic population reported In the official directory is drawn from the number of Catholics living in the United States plus the number of American Catholics living overseas 'on military, diplomatic or private business. In 1900 there were 10,129,677 Catholics recorded in the U. S. The total had gone up steadily every year since until now. Diocesan priests in the U.

VATICAN cn"Y (NC) - Pope Paul VI canonized Father Leonardo Murialdo,' a 19th-century Italian pioneer in' educating young boys of poor famiiles and forming employment offices and labor unions. during solemn cere· monies in St. Peter's. St. Leonard, as he will be known in English, founded the Congregation 'of St. Joseph in Turin in 1873. Today it has 850 priests and brothers in Europe, Latin America and the United States. The congregation is active in Albuquerque, Avon, Ohio, Palmdale and San Pedro, Calif. Pope Paul used the occasion of the canonization to stress the efforts of Catholics in the social field. Too' often, he said, those efforts are forgottell "even though it is of a kind that can only be done by people dedicated by vow to giving such organic service in special institutions." "We must understand," he said, "the social problems which are hidden by the application of science and technology but which demand understanding and a solution for the new life of society."

Advocat1es learning to "Sew For Vari,ety of R,easons

Thurs., May 28, 1970

, Hendricks Poole, Seekonk Hank's Cleaning Co. MacDonald Moving & Storage Co. Plastic Craft Novelty Portuguese AmerIcan Club W. E. Richards Company Zip's Package Store

By Marilyn Rqderick "Why should I learn to sew?" is the question quite a few females are asking themselves today and the artswers certa~nly lead to positive action. Fabrics have never been so lovely, colorful, exciting, easy-to-care-for or dramaticlooking as they are this because you'll end up with more season. Prints are more clothes than you imagined posbeautiful than a Gauguin sible (providing you have time print. Their colors literally because time is required to sew.) invite the buyer to purchase them and they came in such a multitude of colors and fabrics that the most difficult part is pic kin g and choosing .f rom such a vast array. Price is another decisive factor in sitting down at your sewing machine because as the price of clothing rises the excellence of the workmanship seems to be on the downgrade. And if I'm going to have the seams split open on a dress I'd rather they would .do it on a .selfcreation that cost $20 than a ready-made that I paid $80 for. Just this weekend I bought' Meryl two little cotton skirts; one was a wrap-around that had about a yard of material in it and a couple of yards of braid and sold for $8.95, and the other which was denim sold for $5.50. Now if one were ,iust counting the cost of material and trim, $14.45 would buy quite a bit of material for a child-sized 10. "What does sewing do for my image?" could well be another question that a prospective seamstress would ask. The answer to this is that it would do nothing but improve it especially in the eyes of the man of the house who has probably been dying to have you use that expensive sewing machine he bought you ages ago. Even among your friends just a hint that you'I:e taking sewing lessons will bring "Oh's" and "All's." Just don't let on that it really doesn't take the talent of Dior to be a fairly competent seamstress. Fo.... Better Appearance "What will sewing do for my home and family?" Well, while just being able to sew won't guarantee you a place in the House Beautiful Hall of Fame there will be many occasions when just a tablecloth that you whipped up will add a lot of life to an otherwise dreary room. As far as your family is concerned, just, think of all those lovely costumes for school plays that you can turn out every time some one asks for volunteers. "What will sewing do for my appearance?" Improve it no end

his could well be the most important news you've heard in years! Now.You may enjoy a special low-cost health protection plan that pays "extra cash" direct to you when unexpected sickness or accident. hospitalizes you or a member of your family! Mutual Protective Insurance Company, specializing in health insurance for Catholics for 40 years, has created a brandnew health plan especially for Catholics like yourself......the HOSPITAL PLAN FOR CATHOLICS.

"Try" This Plan 1F0r Only $1 You can actually "try" the plan under a special no strings "i~troductory" offer: For only $1.00, you can enroll yourself and all eligible members of your familywithout having to see a company representative and without any red tape whatsoever -during this limited enrollment period. _ And, after ,you receive your policy, if for any reason you decide you don't want it, you may return it within 10 days and your dollar will be promptly refunded! Wily You Need The Hospital Plan For' Catholics In Addition To Ordinary ~ Diealth Insurance

Because no matter what other insurance you now carry, it simply won't cover everything!Think for a moment-in these days of rising medical costs, would your present insurance cover all your hospital bills? All your surgical and in-hospital doctor's bills? All the medicines, drugs, supplies and the . many other extras? Probably not. And even if all your medical and hospital bills were covered, what about all your other expenses-the bills. that keep piling up at home-the tremendous and costly upset to your budget, your reserves and your family life?

ONLY

$~.(Q)[j)

If you, as husbaild, father and breadwinner are suddenly hQspitatized, your income stops, your expenses go up. Even if you have l!ome kind of "salary insurance" it probably won't come close to replacing your full-time pay.llf your wife is suddenly hospitalized, who will look- after the family, do the laundry, the marketing, the cleaning? You may have to taKe time off from your job:""or hire domestic help. If one of.your children is hospitalized, you'll certainly spare no expense. If you're a sen· ior citizen, with limited reserves, ,and are ~ospitalized, even. with Medicare, where will the, "extra" ~oney you need come '. ' from? Without any eitra cash protection in case of a h9spital emergency, debts may be incurred, savings may b~ lost, peace of , mind may be shatt~red-and even recovery can be seriously delayed. How The Plan' Protects You And Your Family ,

Now, with the unique protection of the· Hospital Plan for Catholics you dm avoid these worries-because you can be assured , of extra cash incon1e when you or any covered family member goes to the hospitalto help keep YOlJ out of debt, to help keep your savings intact, to spee<l recovery by easing your worried mind! No matter how large your family, no matter what your age or occupation and without any other qual. i/ications whatsoever, you can choose any . of the four low-cost plans shown at right. In addition to th~ important cash benefits, you get all these valuable "extra" features: Your "Health·Bank Account" Here's a wonderfUl benefit, no matter which plan you chbose, almost like an extra "Bank Account~" When your policy is issued, your insurance provides up .to $10,000, $7,500 or .$5,OOO-according to the Plan you choose. This'is your "HealthBank Account." Then, every month your policy is in force, an amount equal to your regular monthly premium (including your first month) is actually added to your maximum!

Bishop Connolly True Witness Continued from Page Fourteen good intention are conditioning many of the faithful, both clergy, Religious and laity, to give up the Faith without which, as the Letter to the Hebrews teaches us, "It is impossible to please God." (Heb. II. 16) Having lost the freedom of the children of God which comes from adherence to the truth of Faith: they become enthusiastic followers or even intellectual slaves of men, of scholars and pseudo-theologians who capitalize on the voracious appetite of modern men for the sensational regardless of its value, to sow confusion so as to deceive, if possible, even the chosen, as Our Lord prophesied. (Cf. Matt. 24-24) Unknowingly, I trust and pray, they have allied themselves with the Prince of Darkness and have not understood the words of Christ, "He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters." (Matt. 12. 30) Only when a bishop is in union with the head of the Church and in communion with his brother bishops throughout the world is he with Christ and gathers with him. Only then is he the builder of the house of God, who summons men together through his preaching of the word of Faith, who strenghtens them through his ministration of the sacraments of Faith, and who governs them through his shepherding in Faith and love. This is his true' witness to Jesus Christ, the High Priest and Supreme Shepherd of our souls. Bishop Connolly My dear brothers and sisters: this is a day of rejoicing for God's People in the diocese of Fall River, We are celebrating twenty five years of splendid witness to Christ by the humble and' 'faithful chief shepherd of this privileged portion of the Lord's flock. Bishop Connolly told me not to speak of him in this homily. I feel that I tried to be his faithful and obedient helper until I was called to shepherd God's chosen ones in the diocese of Brownsville. It was easy to obey him. It was also a true spiritual adventure to be associated with him as his personal secretary, vice-chancellor, chancellor and pastor for fifteen years. Obviously it was impossible for me,. not to be deeply impressed by his disarming simplicity, his candor, his prudence, . his humility, his genuine and profound Faith which has been the root of his courageous hope and abiding love for the whole Church and for the church of Fall River in particular. In saying this, I trust that I am not now disobedient to him even if I may calise him some embarrassment. One casual look at the Fall River diocese reveals immedi· ately the impact of the Christian witness of this great bishop. As a true shepherd, father, and brother, he has not overlooked a single need of his people. His keen mind' enlightened by Faith and his magnanimous- heart

strengthened by the love of charity which comes from God himself, involve him in every de· tail of the daily life of the people entrusted to his care. This involvement necessarily entails suffering, but it is the suffering that redeems because it is freeIy and joyfully accepted from the hands of the Crucified Bishop of our souls. Bishop Connolly has suffered and is suffering with and for the whole Church of today, and for this reason too his witness to Christ is all the more precious in our eyes. That is why we join in this Mass of Thanksgiving to the Giver of all good gifts for giving us Bishop Connolly. Bless him, Lord, with length of days, bless him with all the gifts of your Spirit and let his witness to you continue to shine bright before the Church and the whole human family.

ST. JOHN THE EVANGELIST

Because babies of California grape pickers have been crushed by farm machines as they lay in fields where their parents were working; because even such a taken for granted amenity as cool clean drinking water must be insisted on in contracts with grape growers; because the life expectancy of farm workers is 49 years and infant and maternal mortality rates are 125 per cent above the natiohal average -for all these reasons Catholic college graduate Denice Plunkett went from a five-day $150 a week position as a home economist to a 24-hour-a-day, $5 a week job as an organizer for the United Farm Workers Union. A non-radical, soft-spoken girl from Mason City, la., Denice is a graduate of St. Teresa's College, Winona, Minn. First in Minneapolis, then in Boston, she worked in the' field of home economics before, becoming involved with the Farm Workers. She began as a volunteer, picketing and passing out leaflets urging consumers to support the grape boycott, then last June became a fulltime worker. The $5, she hastens to explain, is "pocket money." The Farm Workers' provide food and a place to live for their organizers, with accomrr.odations ranging from a sleeping bag on a fi'iendIy floor to quarters in a unionowned house in Boston. Denice's particular responsibility is organization of grape boycotting in the Fall River-New Bedford area. She urges citizens not only to rE:frain from buying grapes themselves, but to keep reminding supermarket managers and chain store executives not to stock them. For even stronger. action, she suggests that housewives send their cash register tapes from' non-grape handling stores to stores that do carry grapes-the object being to show them graphically how much business they're losing. Bishop Medeiros Of particular interest in this Diocese is the fact that Bishop Humberto Medeiros of Brownsville, Tex., former Diocesan Chancellor and pastor of St. Michael's Church, Fall River, is among members of a bishops' committee that played an important role in setting up negotiations that led to the first breakthrough il) the five year struggle of farm workers to. negotiate contracts with California grape growers.

VOURSON. THE PRIEST THE HOLY FATHER'S MISSION AID TO THE ORil:NTAL CHURCH

A FUTURE PRIEST NEEDS YOUR HELP

Have you ever wished you had a son a priest? Now you can have a 'priest of your own'-and sh<\lre forever in all the good he does, . . . Throughout the Near East each year, grateful bishops ordain hundreds of new priests trained by people like you... Their own families are too poor to support them in training, but good Catholics in America 'adopted' these seminarians, encouraged them all' the way to ordination.... In some inspiring cases, this support was given at personal sacrifice, ... How can' you begin? Write to u's now. We'll send you the name of a young seminCirian who needs you, and he will write to you. Make the pay' ments for his training to suit your convenience ($15.00 a month, or $180 a year, cir the total $1,080 all at once). Join your sacrifices to his, and at every Sacrifice of the Mass, he will always remember who made it possible.

HOW

Look at the nearest $10 bill. What is it actualfy worth? Only what it will buy. In Miami or Brooklyn or Philadelphia, it will hillrd:y buy enough to feed a family for two days. In the Holy Land, it will feed a poor refugee fillmily :!or an entire' month. The Holy Father asks your help for the refugees, more than half of them children. Your money multiplies-as you give it away.

•• ....

TO MAKE $10 S-T·R·E·ToC·H

.......

Think of the month ahead, why not send us MASS FOR . your Mass requests right now? Simply list the intentions, and then you can -est assured the YOU Masses will be offered by priests in India, the Holy Land and Ethiopia,. who receive no other income.... Remind us to send you' information about Gregorian Masses, too. You can arrange now to have Gregorian Masses offered for yourself, or for another, after death.

....••

For only ~200 in Ernakulam you can build a decent house for a family that now sleeps on the sidewalks. Simply se.nd your check to us. Cardinal Parecattil will write to thank you also.

the very difficult transitional era in which they must live. ,I suppose that a number of the more enthusiastic members of the priest associations will consider these words to be treason but then any kind of criticism would be considered by such enthusiasts as treason, and, as Bernadette Devlin would say, "I don't care what they think." I suspect, however, that the more thoughtfUl leaders of the priest associations have already been asking themselves these questions and if the priest associations are going to make an important contribution to the American Church these,' and even more difficult questions, must be continuously asked. .'

Commends Eudo.ra Welty's Enjoyable 'Losi.ng Battles'

Fall River

By Rt. Rev. Msgr. John S. Kennedy

ST. ROCH

Eudora Welty's new novel,. Losing Battles (Random House, 457 Madison Ave., New York, N.Y. 10022. $7.95), is so good that the reader murmurs and. chuckles with delight as he goes through it, and so rich that he knows he must return to it so as a real community.

Rev. Rene G. Gauthier $25 Anonymous Mr. & Mrs. William Snyder

1930s, its centers on a reunion 'of the Beecham family, and their in·laws, in honor of the ninetieth birthday of Beecham's grandmother, Granny Vaughn. On a hot, sunny day in August, doz· ens and dozens of eccentric people come in ramshackle vehicles to the poor,played out farm of Ralph Renfro, husband of one of Granny's grandchildren, Miss Beulah. The occasion has a double significance for Miss Beulah, for she feels certain that her son Jack, 19, who has been in the penitentiary for a year and a half, will arrive home during the day. He couldn't possibly stay away from Granny's party. Her faith is justified. Jack arrives afoot, is uproariously welcomed, and' for the first time sees the littl~ daughter that his wife Gloria has borne him while he was behind bars. But the celebration is marred somewhat by the revelation that, on his way home, Jack has helped a stranger get his car out. of a ditch. Only after this kind deed had been done did Jack learn that the owner and driver of the car was Judge Moody, the man who had sentenced him to the penitentiary. Tireless Talkers Justice requires that Jack now track down the' judge and maneuver his C!lr into a ditch. This necessity 'he recognizes, and the whole family cries out for its fulfillment. So, before sitting down to the gargantuan dinner which IS to be served in the open, Jack, with his wife and baby daughter, sets out to find the judge. The quest is succeessful, and the judge, his wife, and their car are put in a precarious positiQn indeed, but not by Jack's contriving. And now Jack feels quite as obligated t.o free them from their fix. What follows is as wildly comical as one could wish. But the birthday and homecoming party, and Jack's curio ously conscientious involvement with the judge are only an opening for the torrents of reminiscence which the family pours forth endlessly. They are tireless talkers, and they ransack their own lives and those of anyone whose lot is thrown in with theirs. Left Without Words At one point, the unwilling visitor, Judge Moody, cries desperately, "~an't conversation o ever cease?" And the local preacher, in describing resurrection day, says, "Why, Banner Cemetery is going to be throwed open like a hill of potatoes! (J ,~ ':' How will you start behaving then, precious friends? I'll tell you! You'll all be left without words. Without words! Can you believe it?" After listening for more than 400 pages. no. But what marvelous listening it is. For we are eavesdropiPing

to family, although, as is quite consistent, they often have sharp words for one another. Warred on Ignorance They are just as devoted to their place, the town of Banner and its environs. To the outsider, like Judge Moody, it appears horribly backward and impoverished, but it· is where the Beechams have their roots and where they mean to lay their bones. Impinging on the festivities is news of the death of Miss Julia Mortimer, once the school teacher at Banner, but long retifed in Alliance. She is recalled with some affection and respect, but mostly with derision, because she had, wickedly, st.yled Banner a pocket of ignorance, had warred on that ignorance, and, crazily, had fought to get the. local boys and girls to improve themselves and to aspire to position in the greater world. Religion Permeates Lives And now it is learned that this outrageous intruder has stated in her will the wish to be buried in the Banner schoolyard. The indignation at this is almost as fierce as the temperature. Religion permeates the lives, saturates the fantasy, of these people. They are stout Baptists, superior to, yet curious about the peculiarities of other sects. "She was a Presbyterian, and no hiding that," it is remarked of the exotic Miss Julia Mortimer, "but was she deep-dyed?" A Methodist non-Beecham in the town asks the judge's wife, "Methodist-Baptist 01< * 0\< which are you?" The reply is ''I'm neither one, and gladder of it every minute." Life-Battles Within the community, each member has his or her history, and thes~ are minutely rehearsed as the sun climbs up and down the sky. Life-battles they are, and losing . battles for the most part, poignant and grotesque alike, grim at times but never wholly devoid of gallantry. Jack stands out as a sort ,of hero, ingenuous and high. minded, never willing to accept defeat, an innocent" who has al. most everything taken away from him, but P&ying no heed to the experience of his elders, sure that he can win out. lFigures of Speech Again and again, one is as· tounded by Miss Welty's powers of observation and invention, her genius for controlling what appears to bf' a prodigal and formless stream of narrative. And that narrative is conveyed almost entirely in monologue and dialogue, with the speech perfectly rendered, intensely local in flavor but never mere dialect. , For figures of speech which are, at once, homely, beautiful, original, and apt, Miss Welty's writing cannot be bettered. These figures grow on the page as thick as the flowers which she loves to name. But there is no glut of them. Each one is like further refreshment on a prostrating day.

P'oul Gillis of New Bedford

Friar Senior Valuable Relief Pitcher Ex-Stang Athlete Plans Teacher-Coach Career By Luke Sims If Providence College is fortunate enough to gain a berth in the post season National Collegiate Conference Association baseball tournament, southpaw Paul Gillis' will have to pl~y an important role. The New Bedford native and Friar senior has been the premier left-handed relief pitcher for Coach Alex Nahigian's sq~ad and is one reason the team is still being considered for post- sophomore year, and first season undecided about his Summer varsity, Gillis fashioned plans although he's entertaining season play. PC had won aon I-Itheslate and boasted an out- ideas of returning to Camp nine of its 'first 13 games standing 2.50 ERA. He teamed Echo in Fairhaven where he and, according to all reports still had "an' outside shot" of gaining one of the few alloted "at large" berths in the diamond classic.

with Fall River's Ted Dempsey to lead the Friars to a winning campaign. ' . Gillis' lone victory that year came at the expense of Boston College. His loss was to Brown. Fine CYO Perfonner Paul is a graduate of Bishop Stang High School where he lettered in baseball and basketball for three seasons. He entered Providence College on an athletic scholarship and has proved his worth through his four-year diamond career. The New Bedford resident is

worked as a councilor for the past two Summers. Gillis hopes to teach and eventually get into the coaching profession following his graduation in June. Paul is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Gillis, 780 Shawmut Avenue, and is a communicant of Holy Name Parish. Prior to his high school days, he was a fine performer in both CYO baseball and basketball and during his school and college years was a stickout pitcher in the rugged Sunset Baseball League of Newport.
