Golden Jubilee Marked At St. Francis of Assisi Last Sunday, the parish community of St. Francis of Assisi in New Bedford celebrated the golden jubilee of its founding with a concelebrated Mass with Bishop Daniel A. Cronin as principal concelebrant and homilist. Rev. Ronald A. Tosti, parish administrator, welcomed the congregation. Vested concelebrants included Msgr. Joseph R. Pannoni, first resident pastor of the parish, Rev. Armando Annunziato, a former pastor, and Rev. Peter N. Graziano, chaplain at nearby St. Mary's Home. An entrance procession began at the rectory, a block from the church, and entered the sanctuary to the trumphal strains of Gounod's "Praise Ye the Father" sung by the parish choir under the direction of Anita Blestracci Belliveau. Edmond Machado of Fall River was trumpeter for the occasion. Lectors at the Mass were William Whelan and Michael DiGiacomo. Bishop Cronin, in his homily recalled the early foundations of the parish and its humble beginnings under the direction of Father Enrico Mezzatesta when the parish was a mission of Holy Rosary parish Fall River. The prelate noted with gratitude the presence of Msgr. Pannoni, who formed the parish a half century ago and was pres路 ent to celebrate that beginning. The bishop reminded all pres-

ent of the significance of the feast of Corpus Christi and related the parish's Jubilee Mass Turn to Page Eleven

Most Reverend Daniel A. Cronin,Bishop of Fall River, announced today that the 1978 ,Catholic Charities Appeal of the Diocese of Fall River has attained an unprecedented, recordsetting amount, $1,111,699.47. In expressing profound gratitude to all who contributed to and collaborated with the Appeal, Bishop Cronin lauded the result as an "inspiring testimonial" to the faith of the residents of the entire diocese. In a prepared statement Bishop Cronin spoke of his consolation that, because of the extraordinary success of the Appeal, the multiplicity of apostolic programs conducted under diocesan auspices would continue and expand in the coming year. The Bishop praised and thanked all who assisted in the annual spring fundraising endeavor conducted by the diocese, singling out for special mention the Diocesan Director, Monsignor Anthony M. Gomes, and the 1978 Lay Chairman, Mr. Edward Machado of Somerset. Monsignor Gomes reported that the Appeal in 1978 had exceeded the prior year's total, itself a record-setting amount, by nearly $65,000. This represents the greatest dollar increment in the 36 year history of the Appeal, save the 1959 Appeal, nearly 20 years ago, when the "pledge" system of giving was first introduced. The Appeal Director noted that 100 parishes of the 113

existing within the Diocese had been listed on the "honor roll" by exceeding the individual total amounts recorded a year ago. Monsignor Gomes noted that this was a record-shattering number of successful parishes. Our Lady of Mount Carmel parish in New Bedford, with returns of $31,982.40, was the leading parish. Holy Name parish of Fall River, reporting gifts of $30,199.10, came a close second. The third-leading parish was St. Pius X of South Yarmouth, where $26,888.02 was contributed.

:VIany parishes registered significant increments, however Corpus Christi parish of Sandwich emerged clearly as the le~.ding unit in this respect, with the final sum of $18,421.00 repreHenting an increase over the pr..or year's figures by nearly $3,800.

Father William Morris, pastor of Corpus Christi parish, attribut,~d the exceptional results to th~ diligent work of his parish committee members. We told the people about the Appeal, Father Morris noted, and they responded in a most generous manner.

Four Priests A.ssigned As Hospital Chaplains ,In connection with the assignment of four priests to fulltime ministry as Catholic chaplains in hospitals within the diocese, Father Edmund 'Fitzgerald, director of the diocesan Department of Pastoral Care for the Sick, has issued the following statement: Bishop Cronin's announcement is a further manifestation of the mission of Jesus to the church to be present in the ills and sufferings of each of its members.

[)ay of Prayer '~o Begin Vigil

The Annual Day of Prayer for Vocations will be observed this weekend in all diocesan churches with a special Prayer of the F,lithful used at all Masses. ,But the observance will not stop there. The weekend will be the kickoff for a yearlong Vigil for Vocations, during which participants will pledge one day a rr.onth to special prayer for vocations to the priesthood and religious life. Pledge cards explaining the program wili be distributed at weekend Masses. The prayer may take any form, including Mass, a visit to the Blessed Sacrament, a rosary, holy hour or spiritual reading. ' The diocesan program grew from a pilot project conducted lnst year on Cape Cod and coordinated by Father Timothy Goldrick. He said the Vigil for Vocations name came from Mrs. Richard Farley of St. Francis Xavier parish, Hyannis, and that t:1e program is a combination of methods used in various U.S. parishes and dioceses.

the ancholS} A RIEADERSHIP SURVEY As Editor of the Anchor, I sincerely wish to thank our 302 readers who took time, effort and postage to reply to our survey of March 30. After comparing our returns with those of similar projects mounted by area secular newspapers, some even providing posta·ge-paid reply forms, we are truly elated by your response. Naturally, it would be impossible for 'me not to review and reflect on your comments. All of us knew from the outset that it's impossible to please everyone and the survey returns made this more than obvious. Some people felt that The Anchor is too liberal, tending to absolute modernism; others felt that it's a spokesman for the far right, emerging from Jansenism. But fortunately the vast majority thought that we reflect middle of the road position on most issues. More than two-thirds of those responding felt that we're trying to do a good job and in \general liked the recent changes in the paper. At the same time, they were not hesitant in offering some sound criticism in regard to where they felt The Anchor should be in its reflection of the Church community on the national and local scene. 'Several strong complaints came from the Cape area with many people thinking this growing section of the diocese doesn't get the coverage it deserves. Others thought the paper was too "Fall River" oriented. In some respects, this feeling is justified, although it should be remembered that many events take place in Fall River simply because it is the site of the cathedral and most diocesan offices, therefore the location of many liturgical ceremonies and significant meetings. In many situations, though, it is the parishes that have regular communicators that receive Anchor space week after week. This is the answer to the subscriber who wrote plaintively, "Is Parish Parade privately owned by some parishes?" It's simply that those parishes have members who have accepted the responsibility of getting news to us; all it takes is slipping a copy of your parish bulletin into an envelope and mailing it to us weekly. There are scores of parishes that do not send in news from one year's end to another; and I assure you that we have no crystal ball at The Anchor office. If you don't tell us, we don't know; but if your parish is doing something special, alert us, and we'll do our best to give you proper coverage. The vast majority of our respondents enjoy Father Andrew Greeley and Mary Carson, although some feel they should be sent to the Spanish Inquisition forthwith. And from a selfish viewpoint it was gratifying to note that a few people read The Mooring, although many don't agree with some of its editorial views. But 'that's what editorial opinion is all about. Some readers offered very positive suggestions I hope to implement as soon ~s possible. Many felt we should continue our efforts to make The Anchor a family paper; along those lines we hope in the fall to inaugurate a children's featur.e; and continue with columns, such as the Kennys, to help parents face family difficulties.

like better than to have a bigger paper with better photographs and increased copy. If we got the revenue we would need to attain this goal, it certainly would be swiftly accomplished! In the meantime 'we must do our best with what we have, exploring and evolving, to bring you the best possible reflection of Catholic views on the national and diocesan level. The Anchor is not in cflmpetition with the secular press although its advertising would be appreciated. Our view is that we should be a reflection of the pilgrim people of God on their journey in the here and now, complete with their faults and failures as well as their positive qualities. A Catholic paper is the Good News given to modern man, always keeping in mind that it is not only an information tool but also an extension of the Church's mission and need to evangelize. iAgain, my thanks to all and a promise that we will continue to listen to your suggestions.

IOODoa~Ca..

Since 147 of you asked for a front page box J,r index calling attention to inside stories, that starts this week, with this report as its number one entry! Others suggestec, that we feature local columnists; but the problem here is in getting contributors to send in their material regularly. One shining exception to that problem is -Father Edmond Rego, whose "A Verdade E A Vida" column is widely read by Portuguese immigrants not yet fluent in English. For this reason we did not print the "reading frequency" response to his column, since those who read it would not for the most part be able as yet to respond to an English language survey. The response to the reading frequency of the sports column is also somewhat misleading. Those who like it, like it very much, but we cannot expect a lr.eadership lor the most part not oriented to school sports to tum to page 15! Some comments did border on the snide, espe::ially those referring to the number of times the bishop's picture appears in the paper. !But here again it should be remembered that the bishop's presence at a pariHh or diocesan event stamps it as having special significance. If a parish has worked for years, for instance, to "Juild a new church or CCD center, it rightly expects coverage of its dedication and ex;>ects, too, that the diocesan s:.lepherd will recognize the importance of the occasion. Should the diocesan paper igncre such events?

Is God Telling Us Something?

In the June edition of Liguorian, the national Redemptorist publication, a rather interesting article appeared concerning the famous Mr. Moon and the Unification Church. It was a different approach to this controversial subject because it did not employ the vilification normally hurled ,at the Moonies. In fact, it raised a very important question that all concerned with the vocation crisis in the Catholic Church should be willing to face. The author, Roger Marchand, reflects that mcmy are ready to accuse Mr. Moon and his organization of faults and failings. Yet, he points out, these same people are at a loss to explain why so many young people are involved Moonies. The truth of the matter, he states, is that in the Orient, Europe and the United States, upper and middle class people from the ages of 18 to 25, are joining what may be 'termed a new religious order, namely the Unification Church. The young people who follow this path pray, work and study in the same manner as religious novices. They follow this way of life because the Unification Church has a power and a vision that have captivated them. Despite its obvious human flaws, this new religious power i~, filling a need felt by people all over the planet. Is God in His own way telling us something:~ From this attraction to the Unification Church can WE; learn something that will help us in our own efforts to bring young people back not only to the pews but also to the seminaries and convents? Young people in this affluent America are tired of , running and are searching for something that will truly help them grow. So many have been the route of sex and drugs that they know it isn't the answer to life. They are hungry for the truth that they know the world cannot give them. Unfortunately, when some do look to the Catholic Church, they do not find the answer because they see no example. The single most important factor that will draw young people to religious life is the example of those truly trying to live that life. Those who are already priests, dE~acons, brotheTs, or sisters must realize that they must be living witnesses to the truth of their vocation. ' Today's alarming vocation trends will be reversed when all of us in religious life really understand that we cannot say something that we are not already living. The Moonies offer this witness to their followers. We must do the same. And if we do not? The answer was given quite directly by Archbishop Jean Jadot in his address to the American bishops in November of 1976. The Archbishop stated: "If we do not reverse t=resent trends, then in 10 years we shall be unable to meet the spiritual needs of the people of God or to bring the light of the gospel to a world that is crying Ollt for the, good news of Christ." The need is thus more than evident. To meet the challenge this need presents, all of us in the Church, religious and laity alike, must look upon ourselves as agents of God in everything we do. We must renew a sense of vocation in every area of Church life. We must be€:in to listen to what God is telling us.

seriously. I don't mean that we ought to be pollyannas thinking that loss of clergy is a blessing in disguise. What I do mean is that history is subject to surprising changes in the way cf social and religious phenomena, and that they should not throw us into a tizzy when they occur. God is present in the world and I do think he wants us to remember that he works in a mysterious way his wonders to perform. Someone has said that the existence of the Jewish people is a sure proof of the existence of God. When you think of the long years of persecution, dispersion and violent death inflicted on the Jewish people, you wonder how they ever survived. The answer, I believe, is in the Old Testament. God made a covenant with the Jewish people and promised he would be their God and they would be his people. As St. Paul reminds us, that covenant still hOlds good because God never rejects his calls 'or his promises. So too with us Christians. We may dwindle in numbers at times, and we may read some bad news about a drop in the number of priests toqay or tomorrow, but we know there is a divine presence among us, come what may.

If Y'ou're Catholic, You Gotta Try Harder By

REV. ANDREW M. GREELEY

If you're Catholic, you gotta try harder. 'Vhen John Kennedy was running for president, he had to oppose aid to Catholic schools to prove he wasn't pro-Catholic. Similarly, Joseph Califano, despite the personal promise of the president and the Democratic campaign platform, has to repudiate aid to Catholic schools to prove that he isn't the Catholic "representative" to the Cabinet. Andrew Young never has to prove that he's not the black representative, nor does Patricia Harris. But that's different, you see. ATIso, Mr. Justice Brennan, the so-called Cath-

Iy MARY CARSON

I'm convinced every teach· er should be tra.ined in the techniques used in special education. Even in regular classro.oms, the methods used in training the handicapped are applicable to all children. I wasn't aware of this when most of my children were in school, particularly in the elementary grades. I've only learned it since two of my younger daughters, one brain-injure~ and the other mentally rearded,

olic justice on the Supreme Court, has consistently voted against the Catholic position in every case that has come up since he has sat on the cour';. That way he Proves he's really not the Catholic repre,entative. Mr. Justice Thurgood MarshalI, of course, is perfectly free t:> vote the bleck' position and ncbody raises a complaint. The Irish Catholic sl,perinterdent in Illinois grew up in ~ Catholic neighborhood, but he has to provi~ that he has tramcended that neighborhood if h~ wants to get ahead in the educational world. So he attacks neighborhood schools. He also (in a letter to me) denounced the isolation and the bigotry of Catholic parochial schools (ignoring the overwhelrr. ing evidence that people who go to Catholic schools are lesH isolated and less bigoted than those who go to public schools). If you're Catholic, the price you have to

pay for geaing into the upper levels of tho establishment is to sell out your own people and your own heritage.

I remember asking sociologist Peter Rossi once why those University of Chicago faculty members who had been so friendly to me when I was a

have been going to l! special program in our local public schools. These special classe:3 are in the regular schools. Where the special students need e:ctra help they remain in the spedal class and in some cases get instruc· tion on a one-to-on~ basis. Where they can handle a regu· lar class, they are "mainstream.. ed" - going to regula:: classer. - even if a grade or two below their age level. Instead of being put 'oto pre.. conceived cubbyholes Jf what they ought to be able to do students are constantly evalua· ted and kept in situations they are capable of handlihg, that yet offer a bit of a challenge and help them reach their fdlest po· tential.

It works! :3ut more important, the attitude of the teachers is different. In normal classes, many teachers are constantly correcting what a child is doing wrong. In special classes, teachers look for what is right! Handicapped children need constant reassurance that they are capable of doing things. They need encouragement. They need praise, for on it they build a better self·image. This is just as true of normal children, but it's often over· looked. ' My little retarded daughter occasionally brings home papers with an "A" or 100%. More often she gets marks like "Super," "Terrific," "Great Work," or "With Help." I've never seen an "F."

Maybe these special teacher~ realize that their pupil's are fighting against all the odds . . . and so they try harder. Some years ago, when I was beginning to see the total effect of this method, one of my, normal children brought home an arithmetic paper. The teacher's comment in red magic marker across the top of the page was "FOUR WRONG!" I dutifully signed the paper . . . but added a note, "BUT six right." We have to see what our children are doing right. As long as they are getting more right than they are getting wrong, they will be encQuraged to try harder. I wonder how often a student is asked to re-read something

aloud . . . because he read it so beautifully? No one grows from embarrassment, humiliation, caustic criticism. All it does is teach him to avoid that situation in the future - and that's often accomplished by retreating into a shell. It makes him fearful of trying, cautious about reaching out . . . unable to grow. "You can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar." You can also teach better with praise and appreciation than with faultfinding. We hear constant criticism of the quality of our education. I believe that could be reversed overnight if every teacher would find something to praise in every student every day!

Sears Scuttles Sex Shows CHICAGO (NC) - Sears has cancelled sponsorship of ABCTV's ''Charlie's Angels" because of its "excessive exploitation of "wome;n's bodies" ~nd of the same network's "Three's Company" because its "whole story line seems to be one sexual innuendo after another,'" according to a company spokesman.

S'aturday Eve.-4:00 and 6:00 P.M. , Daily-8:oo A.M. • Confessions: Saturday-3:00-3:45 P.M. and, 7:007:30 P.M.

The action came because of Sears' efforts to cooperate "with all the groups trying to improve television," including the National ,Parent-Teachers Association and the National Federation for DecenCY,said Liz Klein, assis-

tant in the national news division for Sears. She said it was not prompted by the Sears bQycott recently announced by the

NFD.

The National Federation for Decency, a non-denominational group headed by a minister, called on ~members to return their Sears' credit cards to the company after the organization's mo~itoring of prime-time television programs indicated that Sears was a major sponsor of sex, violence and profanity on the air.

Dedicate Library At Ste Anne's

OBERAiMMERGAiU, West Germany (NC) - The Oberammergau Town Council has reversed an earlier decision to replace its traditional Passion Play with a different version cleansed of anti-semitic references. The world-famous traditional version, in use in Oberammergau since 1860, has come under increasing fire 'from Jewish groups and other religious leaders since World War II because of a number of passages portraying Jews in a bad light

Bishop Daniel A. Cronin will officiate at 7 tonight at the dedication of the Sullivan Medical Library at St. Anne's Hospital Fall River. The facility, combining the holdings of the former nursing school library and an already existing physicians' reference collection, is named in honor of Dr. Frederick J. Sullivan, associated with the hospital for over three decades as chief of medicine, president of the medical staff and a member of its board of trustees.

Scapular Enrollment Held at St. Roch Reviving a devotion now less frequently seen than in the past, members of the Council of Catholic Women of St. Roch's parish, Fall River, sponsored a scapular enrollment ceremony Tuesday night. The rite was combined with a living rosary procession and parish first communicants as well as any other interested parishioners were invited to be enrolled in the brown scapular of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel. The enrollment, also held last year, was in response to the request for prayer of Our Lady of Fatima, said council officials. It was held on the eve of the traditional feast of the Queenship of Mary, now observed as the feast of the Visitation. Each person enrolled in the brown scapular, traditionally made of two small pieces of cloth joined by strings, was also given a scapular medal, to be worn in its place if desired.

Pius X

Father McManus

By Father John Castelot

By William Ryan

One of the most remarkable phenomena to occur since Vatican II has been the unprecedented number of people receiving Communion Sunday after Sunday. There was a t.ime when few received except around Christmas and Easte:,. The heresy called Jansenism had subtly engendered a feeling that we were not worthy to communicate often. This was sad and Pope Pius X took the initiative in correcting it. This extraordinary man was basically an ordinary person born Giuseppe Sarto, son of the postmaster of the Italian village of Riese. Born in 1835, the second of 10 children, he grew up in poverty. Encouraged by his pastor, he went to school a daily round trip, on foot, of 10 miles. A scholarship enabled him to go to the seminary at Padua. He was ordained at 23. Seventeen' years of parish work followed, then he was made a canon at Treviso. Here his dedication and charities marked him out and he was appointed bishop of Mantua. The skill with which ;:le managed a delicate situation - two of his towns were in schism - moved Leo XIII to name him a cardinal and patriarch of Venice, where his simplicity amazed his flock. When Leo XIII died, a stormy conclave was held with Emperor Franz Joseptc of AustriaHungary trying to veto the front runner. But when it was over, Cardinal Sarto was elected on the seventh ballot, an unlikely choice from the human point of view. His family was undistinguished. He was not known for intellect or diplomacy. But the Holy Spirit cares not for all this. The new pope to call a halt to interference in a papal elections by a secular power but also moved closer to a reconciliation with the Italian government by revoking a ban on Catholic participation in national elections. He caused an uproar with his condemnation of sev~ral "errors" lumped together under the misleading heading of Modernism. Many felt: he had overacted, today. But he did what he felt he had to do under the circumstances. The aim of his pontificate was "to restore all things in Christ," and vigorously promoted the Eucharistic life of the church, and also urged daily reading of Scripture. He established a commission for the critical restoration of St. Jerome's translation of the Bible and in 1909 he founded the Pontifical Biblical Institute for the training of Catholic biblical scholars.

In June the Notre Dame Center for Pastoral Liturgy will present its highest honor to Father Frederick R. McManus, vice provost, dean of graduate stUdies and professor of canon law at the Catholic University of America, Washington, D.C. This award says Father McManus "brought into a new age of reform the work championed by early liturgical leaders of our country . . . He served as a peritus (expert) for the Consilium of the Second Vatican Council and was a central figure in communicating the work of this research to the American scene." Still young and dynamic, it seems to many that Father McManus has always been there. He is recognized as one of the leading experts on liturgy in the world, and he occupies a similar position with regard to canon law.

',de Parent!i are their children's most profound influence.

Part~nts By Mary Jo Tully

"Though he was a canon lawyer, he was always interested in liturgy," says Msgr. Francis Lally, who knew Father McManus in the seminary and is now secretary for social development and world peace at the U.S. Catholic Conference. "It seems to me it was providential because he could bring a rich, theological experience to liturgical development and he was very influential. In Boston, everyone thinks of Fred McManus as on~ of those solid. reliable churchmen that you can turn to in a variety of fields and get sensible, intelligent answers."

Prepare Children for Sacraments ditional prayers of family and Roman Cathoiic tradition is communicated in the family. More and more parishes are offering programs which involve parents in their children's preparation for first Communion and penance. Even when this is not done, the parents' attitude toward the sacraments is communicated to the child. For example, :10 matter how positive the catechist's approach to the rite of reconciliation, the child is subtly influenced by his parents' feelings. If parents use the sacrament as a club over the child's head ("Don't forget to tell that to Father in confession!"), the child will see this occasion of encounter with God's mercy as a discipline rather than an expression of God's love. The family experience of re-

But while pare,lts might effectively esc,lpe fornal involvement in their children's religious and spiritual formation, they cannot escape tt e fact that they are their most p ~ofound influence. Religious attitudes are formed at home long before :formal religious education and doctrine are taught. It may seem farfetched to suggest that the child's prayer life be_~ins in the home, but there is every reason to think this is so. Consider the parer.t's chcice of a name for an infant. The history of that nam~ will forever influmce the way it is spoken. If this name is a source of contention between the parents, the name will carry the hostLity occasioned by its choice.

This prepares him to understand his encounter with God in the sacrament of reconciliation. Yes, religious educators need parents.

The Revival of Liturgy

Trent reformed the liturgy but did not restore its communal nature. Well, a new reprofme has happened. Per capita communion is the righest it has been since the fourth century but the real potential is yet to be realized more spiritual Catholics, more loving Catholics. May God's grace bring this about in willing hearts!

-Father McManus helped make it happen. He was a consultant to the Pontifical Preparatory Commission (for the council) from 1960 to 1962 and a peritus at all four sessions of the council. In January, 1965, he was named the first director of the U.S. bishops' Liturgy Secretariat. He remained in that post for 10 years. Father John E. RoteIle, who succeeded Father McManus in the Secretariat, says: "In addition to his vast knowledge of the liturgy, his total involvement in its renewal, and his love and zeal for its celebration, Father McManus' personal qualities are what make him the outstanding person he is today in the church.

Not One Angstrom Gentlemen: The decision of a three-judge panel of the U.S. District Court at Boston, Massachusetts declaring unconstitutional a Massachusetts statute requiring parental consent ~efore a minor could obtain an abortion effects not only the Government of the United States and that of Massachusetts but all government and particularlly the ~llenia-old primary government of the family. Predicating its action on "unconstitutionality," the Court proceeded by unconstitutional means to legislate and to viciously attack that keystone of the Bill of Rights, the Tenth Amendment. No element of the government should act unconstitutionally, least of all the judiciary. On at least three occasions during the past year,national publications have documented numerous instances of legislating on the part of the Federal courts, inquiring, how far they intended to go with such illegalities. Of course the oonstitutional answer is not one fraction of an angstrom unit. Too long the American People have tolerated this perversion of their Sovereign Power. The immorality of the neglect and its already lethal consequences to innocent segments of the Sovereign People should rally the Electorate to its constitutional duty. The exercise of the powers of the Electorate requires information, study, question, challenge, decision, articulation, and appropriate action. Constitutionally, these functions may not be subject to repression. The core criterion of republican government is the investing by the Electorate of. their legislative agents with responsibility and the exaction from them of accountability.

[I Letters to the editor II Don Orione Dear Editor: The following is a translation of a prayer to Don Orione, an Italian priest who spent his life serving the poor and whose cause for beatification has been introduced: Don Orione: Someone referred to you as "God's -Bandit." Was it because you stole so many hearts for God? Our Blessed Mother, whom you love, must smile for joy there up above; she knows the secrets of your grand success. And how about the mass of souls who bless you - those myriad poor whom you called the "rags" of Humankind that you went forth to gather out of the gutters in fair or foul weather? They must be the jewels that you "purloined" to make her crown! And now that you have joined the blessed, do you still perform God's work and go "hunting" as your name quite suggests? You know Orion, in God's firmament, that mystic hunter? Say, are you still bent on searching out the sorrowing and the lost souls who look for solace in their misery? Then tum your eyes my way. Remember me. Please. Ave Maria. Stanley Gutowski Don Orione Volunteer Boston

Comments Dear Editor: I have comments to make on several articles: - Fr. Greeley, April 27, says that in some Catholic colleges required religion courses are taught路 by people who explicitly attack the divinity of Jesus and the resurrection. Why bother attending a Catholic university - this you can get much more cheaply in a state school. Where does a Catholic go to have his faith developed - an evangelical Bible school, perhaps?

- Your brilliant editorial (May 4), "Evangelical Broadcasting": While I rejoice that Christian broadcasting is avail~ able, I am saddened that the Catholic Church let such an opportunity go by. We should have been the leaders. We have the spiritual training and the financial resources. - The article on tithing (Know Your Faith, April 27): Tithing is truly a worthwhile practice. You might solicit testimonials from people in the diocese who do tithe. Although we are poor, we began tithing several years ago and have never regretted it. Last year our take home pay was $6600, of which we donated over $800 to our parish church (then St. Augustine, Vineyard Haven; we have since moved). We tithe on the gross income, not the take home pay, because God comes first, not the government. - My last comment is on a May 4 article, "Members Sought by Third Order." This article was excellent, describing well the spiritual and social action of a Catholic group. It is good to know that such a group exists in our diocese. Ninety-nine percent of church groups are fundraising groups - the re-

Anonymolus Gift Grows Sixfold

A-I Approved for Children and Adults

WISCONSIN RAPIDS, Wis. I(NC) - An anonymous donor's $500 investment.:in youth last February is exp,ected to hit $3,000 by the end of the school year. Since Sharon Link, student council president at Assumption High School in Wisconsin Rapids, received 500 cine dollar bills with instructions to distribute one dollar to each student at Assumption, students have been working to make that amount grow. Most pooled their money according to classes and initiated projects in which to invest. Individual students who chose not to pool their money brought in $118 from their (twn projects. Although the dl~cision is not final, the $3,000 - which includes the initial $500 gift will probably be used to pave the student parking lot. And Assumption Principal Joseph Houston admits he would like to see the $500 gift given to next year's students for reinvestment as a continuing school project. Both the principal and the student .council president agree students have met the unknown donor's challenge. '''You have the seeds, nurture them." the donor wrote. "At the end of the threemonth period, you as people will have a greater insight into yourselves.

tude young people are showing?" ,Personally, I would say ye:l. Remember Christ's statement, "Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." I find nothing in Christianity on the side of obscuring or withholding any kind of truth. In the past, church lE'aders did not care to get into the difficu';t areas. It was better to stay in the easier ones. In this we wer e not imitating Christ. He tackled the toughest problems of His day. The higgest one was Himself. Since the 60's' the crisis (If faith has been more with us than in any other time that I can remember. There are timES when we must trus-~ blindly in what Jesus said. Faith is not a garment you put on and take off. It is not magic. It is not perfect knowledge; it has nothing to do with knowledge. Many Christians tell me they feel like faith-failures. Because they have doubts which blemist th~ir understanding they feel they're ge':ing nowhere. But faith by its very nature is not subject to prod. Otherwise, we are not talking abolt faith, but sight . . . and this has not been promised until later. Now and then a searching young person will as:{ me to prove the' e,cistence of God.

asked, "Any questions?" Silence. "Well do you agree or disagree?" More silence. At last a frail gentleman with a' thin voice spoke up: "I guess we agree. That's why we are trying to live the life of f.lith." Everyone lives by faith of some kind, even the hedonist . with' his pleasure principle. He believes it to be valid. How does he know there is no higher good? The scientist assumes his . work matteTS. That's faith. Reformers have faith, when they assume that people count for something. What distinguishes Christians is not the fact of their faith but its substance and content. How to explain this to the doubting Thomas? Don't try. Just don't blame God for what man does. People forget that faith can be- risky, a gamble of the best kind. We waste our years worrying about the wrong things. So much depends. on attitude and sincerity. Young people scrutinize the faces of the older generation. Do we teach the . young as if the faith were true? . Do we pray as if God's power were caring and loving power? Do we reverence Christ as if the power of His death and resurrection could save us all from death. Maybe we are the reason for the unbeliever!

IN THE DIOCESE

By BILL MORRISSETTE

Norton, Sullivan Honored Two Greater Fall River men widely known and respected in Southern New England scholastic sports circles have been honored in recent days. William B. (Bill) Norton, whose son, Rev. William W. Norton is associate pastor of St. Patrick's parish, ~areham, has been elected by the Massachusetts Retired Teachers Association as its delegate to. the 1978 National Education Association assembly in -Dallas June 30 through July 5. Norton is known for his 28year tenure as baseball coach at New Bedford Vocational High School where he taught for 45 years. A graduate of Durfee High, Coburn Prep of Waterville and Providence College, he played baseball and ran track at Durfee. He has been the announcer at New Bedford High games for several years. The other man to receive hon-

ors is Jim Sullivan, who has just piloted the Somerset High Blue Raiders to their first Southeastern Mass. Conference Division One championship. Sullivan, who has been at the Somerset helm for 18 years and led the school to nine league and conference championships, is the recipient of the Father Taylor Award from Providence College, his alma mater. The award is given annually to a former Providence College player who has continued distinguished involvement in baseball. Jim's son, Barry, was named to the All-American third team when an outstanding outfielder for the Friars in 1974. Son Brian was a three-letterman at the University of MassaGhusetts. Yet another son, Brad, has posted seven victories against no losses this season for Somerset High, one of the best performances ever by a Blue Raider pitcher.

SSe Peter and Paul CYO Banquet Sunday Members of the SS. Peter and Paul Diocesan Prep basketball championship team will Ibe honored at the parish's CYO awards banquet at 1 p.m. Sunday in the Father Coady Center. John P. Harrington, Superintendent-Director of Diman Regional Vocational Technical High School, will be guest speaker and awards will be presented to all contributors to a successful

year of parish eyO activities. First-year coaches Bob Bell and Dan Freeman piloted the Prep team to a 21-6 overall record. In regular season play the team had a 15-3 mark. The parish had a city champion in the Junior e Division and its Junior A quintet won the Southern Division crown but lost to Sacred Heart in the city playoffs.

F.I.S.T. (United Artists) is a filawed, romanticized saga of labor, based on the history of the Teamsters Union and Jimmy Hoffa, and starring Sylvester Stallone. Its strength lies in its subject and its uniformly fine acting in secondary roles. Violence and factual historical shortcomings make an adult rating necessary. Morally ).lnobjectionable for adults. FM (Universal) is a lightweight film about a successful Los Angeles FM station which becomes the target of selfish big businessmen. Suggestive dialogue and a too-explicit sequence of a woman throwing herself at a disc jockey while he is on the air dictate an adult rating. Morally unobjectionable for adults. The Manitou (Avco) is an asinine movie about the spirit of a 500-year-old Indian medicine

news

man fighting with contemporary colleagues. Much violence and bloodshed, some nudity. Morally objectionable in part for all. If Ever I See You Again (Columbia) features Joe Brooks as a successful but frustrated commercial songwriter who rediscovers, loses and wins back his college sweetheart. It's so gloppy it makes Love Story look like a Tolstoy novel. Morally unobjectionable for adults.

It Lives Again( Warners) A cheap and shoddy hOrror movie about monstrous infants who kill with superhuman force. Definitely not for the yOung. Morally objectionaBle id part for all. The End (lJblted Artists) is a painfully unfdnny ,Burt Reynolds comedy abdut how not to commit suicidl!. Of'ferlsive in its disrespectNI treatment of con-

fession and an explicit scene of lovemaking. Condemned. Nunzio (Universal) is the story of Nunzio <David Proval) a retarded young Brooklynite who lives with his mother and works as a deliver man. He fantasizes that he is Superman and enjoys running across rooftops acting out his role. After some sexual misadventures he Is severely scolded in the confessional and has decided to run away from home when a Supermanlike and melodramtic conclusion takes place. Excellent acting and directing compensate for the film's contrived ending; but because of sexual episode and a confessional scene that might distort present Catholic practice, Nunzio is rated morally unobjectionable for adults.

Cat and Mouse (Quartet). A veteran police inspector runs into complications while investigating the murder of a millionaire and the theft of his valuable art collection in this intelligent and entertaining French film marked .by sophistication and adult humor. Morally unobjectionable for adults. The Chosen (AlP). Kirk Douglas plays a nuclear power magnate determined to build a super nuclear plant in a Third World country. He learns that the devil himself is the main backer of his project and that the anti-Christ waiting in the wings to take over is none other than Douglas' own son. This Italian-made film is abysmal drivel that exploits nudity and gory violence. Condemned.

A Different Story (Avco). Boy meets girl. 'Both are .homosexuals. They overcome this little obstacle without too much difficulty and settle down to married life, complete with baby, but she begins to suspect he is playing around and fears the worst. It turns out to be merely another woman. This vapid movie contains a particularly distasteful .nude scene and seems designed to offend just about everybody, perhaps homosexuals most of all. Condemned. The Greek Tycoon (Warners). A Greek shipping magnate wins the chic widow of an assassinated U.S. president in a courtship in which calculation is more significant than passion. Blatantly vulgar, this movie contains a graphic nude scene and compounds its offensiveness by trafficking in actual events seen through the glass of gossip and slanderous innuendo. Condemned.

Jennifer (AlP). Tormented ''Jy her healthy classmates, a poor girl attending a posh school ''In a scholarship, turns the tables'Jn her oppressors. She has a way with snakes and uses this power to exact a gruesome revenge. This mediocre film has enough violence to make an adult rating necessary. Morally unobjectionable for adults. The Last Waltz (United Artists) is a cinematic record of the last concert given by the popular rock group, The Band. Supplemented by interview fo,)tage and some numbers shot in a studio, it is extremely well dene for its kind but its appeal is limited to rock fans. The amoral attitude of some of the performers together with some coa:,se references make it mature viewing fare. Morally unobjectiona''Jle for adults. Our Winning Season (AlP). The year is 1967, and a high school senior is training to win the mile run and beat a hated rival. While moving to its predictable conclusion, the firm marks time with a string of lessthan-compelIing vignettes of school life. The one attempt at significance involves an affair between the hero's best friend and his sister before the fri{!nd goes off to die in Vietnam. This movie is mediocre in every :lepartment. Though there is no nudity, the lack of moral perspective in a supposedly serious film calls for an adult rating. Morally unobjectionable for adults. Thank God It's Friday Columbia) uses Friday night at a di ,co as a microcosm of human life. The plot strives, with not too much luck, to juggle perhap:; a dozen stereotypes and the happy ending sorts things out as best it can. Because some of the jokes have to do with drugs nnd sex, an adult rating is called for. Morally unobjectionable for adults.
