Strickler said the growing co eperation between public and Catholic schools is essential to progress, but he claimed some Catholic educators are letting eooperation blur the line be tween the two types of schools. '!'he views of some Catholic educators about Catholic schools today "are distingtlished only with difficulty" from the way public school educators see pub Uc schools, he said.

for coexistence, or promoted by any plan of coexistence, I must express some concern," he said. Shared-time programs, under which Catholic school pwpils spend up to half a day in public schools, "place the Catholic school in a position of second ary significance," Strickler said. He said they also tend to com promise Catholic educational philosophy which requires that
religion form part of, and be integrated into, the curriculum of the schools. Strickler called for a- coun ter-march to 'me-tooism' in Catholic education," saying it should have this statement as its principle: "Diversity creates vitality and the strength of the whole educational enterprise is proportionate to the strength of its parts."

New York Clergy Discuss Crisis With Mayor NEW YORK (NC)-Eigh teen Protestant, Catholic and Jewish clergymen met here with Mayor Robert Wagner to offer their support in the city's racial crisis and offer sug gestions for dealing with it. . Led by Dr. John C. Bennett, president of Union Theological, Seminary, the clergy g r 0 u p spent an hour with Wagner re viewing the situation which has led to rioting in Harlem and the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn. Catholic representative in the group was Father Philip Hurley, S. J., chaplain of the Catholic
IiIlItermcial Council of the Bronx.
Attack Problem
The clergymen asked for esta blishment of a civilian review board to consider charges of police brut'ali1Jy and u r g e Ii strengthening of the city's Hu man R;ights Commission. In a statement after the meet ing they said this is "no time for piece-meal solutions" and warned that the problems of Harlem and Bedford-Stuyvesant cannot be isolated from "the destiny of the city as a whole." They called for an "immediate all-out attack on the racial prob lems confronting our city."

NO JOB TOO BIG
THOSE WIDE OPEN SPACES: It's a long way from here to Washington, say Si.s-ter Imelda .Marie, left, and Sis ter Mary Anita, Holy Union Sisters from England who taught at Sacred Hearts College in Fall River this Summer. They're planning sightseeing tour to New York, Washing ron before returning to England Sept. 1. since there is much of the over crowding problem 'that exists in this country, only the best stu dents succeed in entering. Noting the many types of schools that flourish in England, Sister Mary Anita said "The value of British education is in its diversity." In Fall River she conducted a two-week science workshop for in-service teachers. It was de signed to help elementary teach ers to understand the basic principles of chemistry and physics and to give them' an in sight into the newer approaches in the teaching of science in primary grades. The Sisters have visited liter ary and historic landmarks of Massachusetts, such as Salem, Concord, Lexington, Boston and Plymouth, and have toured Har vard University and Boston Col lege. "The distances are amazing," said Sister Imelda Marie in con trasting her "tight little isle" with America's open spaces. "You travel at great speed and have the amenities for this trav el," she added, referring mainly to Massachusetts' network of expressways. Then she couldn't resist quot ing an epigram: "You're halfway through tomorrow's schedule before you've swallowed yester day's tranquilizers." Sister Mary Anita admitted, though, that London is a rather rushing place; too. "When you're there, the pace of the people
makes you start hurrying your self." Both Fall River Holy Union Sisters and the English visitors agree that the teacher exchange has been stimulating on both sides. And there's hope that this first Summer visit will blossom into a full-fledged exchange program between American and English provinces of the com "munity.

Hungarians Pro)' For Aqreement BUDAPEST (NC)-Hungary's CathoHcs are pray'ing ceaselessly for a prompt solution of Church State problems in this commu nist-ruled country, and hoping that a settlement will be reached before Summer's end. 'It is believed here that secret negotiations have been under way between the Holy See and the Hungarian government for more than a year. Many Hun garian bishops, priests and lay leaders believe the talks are so far advanced that all that re mains to be done is to sign an agreement. ' Neither the Vatican nor Hun gary, however,. have confirmed that negotiations are being con ducted. Cardinal's Case Despite this, well informed sources here claim that agree ment has been reached on the namiug of bishops for six empty dioceses. They also believe that 85-year-old Bishop Lajos Shvoy of Szekesfehervar and Bishop Kalman Papp of Gyoi:!r, who is ill, will ask to retire from their posts. These sources a1so note that a Vatican - Hungarian agreement would have to settle the case of J 0 z s e f Cardinal Mindszenty, Hungarian primate who has been living ·in asylum at the U. S. legation here since the
failure of the 1956 anticommu

''Rochester Prelate Says White, Negro Hoodlums Involved in Riots ROCHESTER (NC)-The pas tor of a major downtown parish said here this city's violence has not been a race riot, but mob action against places of business by white and Negro hoodlums. This appraisal was given by Msgr. John S. Randall, pastor of Immaculate Conception church, managing editor. of the Rochester diocesan newspaper, the Cattlo lic Courier Journal, and a past president of the Catholic Press Association. Msgr. Randall, around whose downtown c h u r c h violence 3wirled on July 25, thinks the rioting which lep to four deaths and more than 700 arrests had "some ,organization behind it" and offered an opportunity for "a bunch of hoodlums, not only colored but white as well, to wreak havoc around the city." Of white partieipation, he said: "Whites were involved. Any number of them. When looting broke out on Saturday night (July 25), white hoodlums converged on the area to take part in it. Although he moved Trinitar ian Sisters serving in his parish flo a convent outside the trou bled area, Msgr, Randall said in an interview that his parisb. plant suffered no damage. Mob Violence "They haven't touched any churches or schools or resi dences," he said. "It is just mob Yiolence against grocery stores and liquor stores and places of business run by white people. They haven't touched any busi ness where the management is eolored." Asked if this apparent selec tion .of white-owned' businesses implied a degree of planning, Msgr. Randall said he believed this to be true, although it is generally deniild. Sore Point Msgr. Randall dismissed un employment as a factor in the Tiolence. liAs a matter of fact," he said, "the employment rec ord up here is superior to any place in the country. I don't know of any of our industries that are discriminating against Negroes. Many of them, of (!ourse, are generally unemploy-
Mothers' Tutoring Classes Success CLEVELAND (NC) - Two mothers and 20 volunteers, mostly Catholic high school stu dents, are about to bring to a successful close classes they con ducted at two parochial schools for children needing tutoring. Mrs. Fred Leone and Mrs. Iohn Sweeney directed the op ecation at St. Adalbert and St. Edward schools under sponsor ship of the local Catholic Inter lIacial Council. The four-week effort offered individual and group instruc twn in reading and arithmetic for children who attend the two schools during the regular school Fear.

able because they have no skills." He said the city has an ahnor mal dropout rate among Negroes in schools, but "I think that primarily they are those ~ho are not keepable for a hlgtl schOOl education and have no ambition." Communication between Roch ester's whites and Negroes, he said, is "probably one of the sore points" in the area. "There ,has been a lack of good commUOlca tion. There are not too many spokesmen for the colored com munity and it is pretty hard to get someone that can speak for them because the colored com munity is so disrupted." He noted that the city has two elected colored, supervisors. One of them is Mrs. Constance Mitchell who is a member of his parish and who has been active in appeals for law and order.
Seek Education In Red China HONG KONG (NC) - Red China's universities have re ceived admission applications from more than 100 Hong Kong secondary students, according to reliable sources. This is the first time since 1958 that an appreciable number of local university-age students have turned to the mainland for their higher education. The reason commonly given around Hon'g Kong is "a general improvement in economic condi tions" in the Chinese People's Republic (CPG). For between the establishment of the CPG in 1949, a,:d 1958, when the famines began, from 800 to 1,000 Hong Kong students went to China every year for university edu eation. But some Chinese professional men here give a d,ifferent reason. Confided one outstanding, wide ly-traveled scholar, himself a Catholic and refugee from Shanghai: Last Resort "What is the ambitious, intel ligent secondary student to d'O if he's not Catholic ~ even though he is against the Chinese communist regime? Of the 939 students ~ho qualified for ad mission to Hong Kong univer sity this Fall, there are only 535 vacancies. "What happeQ.s to the other 400 and the many hundreds of other secondary school gradu ates-well rounded students who cannot get their higher educa tion in the Western countries? Taiwan's (Formosa universities are overflowing'" ...... 'Free Chma' (Taiwan) used to take many students from Hong Kong. So some go to 'unfree' China."

Prelates Advise Bra%il Governor SALVADOR (NC}-The gov ernor of an important Brazil.ian state is governing with the ad vice of bishops rather than poli ticians. Gov. Lomanto Junior of Bahia called a two-day meeting of bishops of the state to promote the integration of the Church in his administration.
HEAD. UNIVERSITY: Father Edward B. Bunn, S.J., left, president of Georgetown University, Washington, D.C., since 1952, has been named Chancellor of Georgetown, ef fective Dec. 3. Father Gerard J.

Selfish Individualism Greatest Force Against Family Life MUNICH (NC)-Young people today should be given help to build families against all the pressures that raise difficulties for them, the Holy See has told delegates from 26 nations to the meeting here of, the International Union of Family Organizations. In its message, the Vatican linked help to y'Oung couples with "the worldwide struggle for freedom of the individual." Julius Cardinal Doepfner, archQishop of Munich :and Freis ing, appearing before the con ventic)D, asserted that the great
est force opposing famBy lIfe today was selfish individualism. The keynote speaker, Ger many's family affairs minister, Dr. Bruno Heck, said that "never were the healing powers of the family more necessary than now," referring to the degree in which human personality is overwhelmed by modern indus trial society. "The human characteristics of Our entire modern way of life depends, for better or worse, on the vitality and health of our families," Dr. Heck stated.
The governor surprised politi cal circles throughout Brazil by making it clear that the princi pal problems of his state will be resolved witli the support of the Church and without, in his words, "the mechanisms organ ized by the various political factions." Gov. Lomanto Junior hopes to formulate, with the aid of the bishops, a program of mutual ,collaboration between the gov ernment and the Church for the benefit of the people of his state. Subjects discussed, at the meet ing were strictly administrative and did not touch on political matters. Under consideration were social assistance, public health, education, sanitation, en ergy, transportation and agricul ture.

Reaction
EII••td••
Ther isa growing undercurrent of impatience toward the elements who are stirring up Negro communities and lIrging them to violence that in many instances has )ittle or nothing to do with race relations or the desire for equal justice under the law. Indeed, senseless explosion of human energy is a defiance of the law, and the law is the Negro's best friend. True, laws to aid him have been late in com::ng, in many instances a hundred years late. But it would be a real tragedy if the s'acrifices of his forebears, the' efforts of so many men and women over the decades, the Christ like long-suffering of many of his and other races were to be tainted at this hour by forces that seek to divide rafher' than to heal, to pull apart rather than to weld together, to sow hatred rather than brotherhood. And it would be truly tragic if those who have suf fered with artd for the Negro and who have felt guilt because of the treatment he has received in the United States for a hundred years were to be so shocked by violent elements in Harlem and Jersey City and Rochester that their guilt would turn to animosity and their sY'mpathy to irritation. This would not be a reasonable reaction but it would be a human one. And the cause of racial justite and, above all, brotherhood among men would be set back immeasur ably thereby. Each person reading of the various rioting taking place in different parts of the 'country must be careful that sueh a "backlash" attitude does not creep into his own thinking and attitudes. Patience and reasonaioleness and charity must still prevail-in and toward all concerned.
English Justice
The English .police seem to have dealt most effective:ly with the rival British mobs of Mods and Rockers. Theile gangs of grown-up children have in past months terrorized various coastal resorts but their latest escapades were met with so much sheer force that they felt the fun go out of their evil antics and were reduced to foot-sore and weary complainers. The English police moved in on' them with great numbers of firm authority who kept them moving, until they were ready to drop from exhaustion. And a tired rioter has no steam left to generate mischief. Of course the English 'police usually do not have to e()ntend with' guns. English justice is swift and heavy and seldom avoided when a gun is found in a person's posses sion in the course of any crime. This inevitability of purtish mentfollowing upon the possesson of a gun in a misdeed. is enough of a deterrent to keep the English criminal, professional or amateur, as far from a gun as common sense dictates. It is a treat, however, to see and example of stenl justice refusing to capitulate to terror. The great British sense of law and order is once more the obpect of envy and emulation.
Warning
Recent warnings given by a Senate Committee to the television industry had best be heeded. Or, as one Senator advised, if the industry will not police and clean itself up" the public will step in wth a force more harsh. Target of the crticism is mostly the endless use of violence, violence in such abundance that it either is pre sented as a familiar mode of acting or-answering to the elaim of some television leaders that this is not so - the sensibilities of people, especially children, are so blunted that violence loses its power to shock anymore, hardly a desirable goal. ' Televisioll authorities had better face the fact that they are vry much in the same position as the movie industry in the early Thirties. Warnings of interested and well-intended critics then were brushed aside until an aroused public hit the film-makers in their sensitive spot, the pocketbook. The television public may be now a sleeping giant lulled into lethargy in the vast wasteland of the cathode tube. But a giant can awaken and can write letters to sponsors and can protest at 'assaults on its taste and moral standards.

TODAY-The Transfiguration of Our Lord Jesus Christ. This moment of transfiguration, this exception, proves the rule about Jesus' surrender during His eanhly life of the fullness of His glory that He might be truly one of us. Before the submission to death of His life, "according to the fles:'l'~ and the Father's raising Hirr.! .to glory by the Spirit's power, only the event we cele brate today showed Christ as He has been ever since the Resnrrection. "Splendor which dazzles human eyes" (First Reading) belongs to Him who has become Lord. TOMORROW - st. Cajetan, Confessor. Our passage to glory invoLves more than a sloughing off of the more obvious limi tations of human existence. It means also a transcending of many good things which on earth are actual means of loving God. Today's Mass, in honor of the founder of another religious community, is particularly con cerned with one of these: man's property, possessions, material goodB. The Religious who vows' he w ill not posses nor own is merely bearing witness here and now to an aspect of our life in glory. SATURDAY - St. John Mary Vianlley, Confessor. "I would have him leave his sinning and live on" (First Reading). Sin grace, death-life, mortality-im mortality-the promise of pas sage is older even than its aetu alizat:,on in Jesus Christ. The prophetic text of the Old Testa ment is Hving Word of God today. It is achieved. And the pastor, the shepherd (Gospel), the la borer in the harvest, is he who :oreaches this good news and presides at the Supper where the news becomes living an experienced fact. 12TH SUNDAY AFTER PEN. TECOST. At the very heart of Christ.ianity is a contrast be. tween law and spirit, slavery and freedom, "written law" and "spirit Jal law" (First Reading). The Christian opts for, the latter in each case, which, except in the caf:e of slavery, does not ex clude 1.he former but transcends and im'orms it. As often as Jesus warns against disrespect for the law, he wal'ns also against our ten dency' to identify it absolutely wHh our human understanding ~ it and with the human terms
we use to express it. Our public worship, for ex ample, is formal, liturgical, written, yet the Council's great reform now under way has shown us that the Church must be free and responsible before God to renew her understanding of the "letter" in the light of the Spirit. And eV,en to change the letter when circumstances ren , der it less useful to the Spirit. MONDAY-St. Lawrence, Mar. tyro Word, sacrament, congre. gation, priest--all are manifes tations and vehicles of the pres ence of Jesus ChriS't, of his real presence. So when we gather for Mass we are in all these ways in the presence oi Him whom we would follow (Gospel, Communion Hymn). He it is who sows freely (First Reading), and we see it in this sacrificial meal com memorating death and resurrec tion. He it is who·"is an enemy to his own life in this world" (Gospel), and we see it here, as we handle the signs of a body given and blood shed. Honoring a martyr today, we pray for grace to sow more freely our selves. TUESDAY-Mass as on Sun day. "What is it that is written in the law?" asks Jesus, for law is still our guide. And the man who knew only the written law, not the "spiritual" (First Read ing), came back with a question that was almost, a plea, "And' who is my neighbor?" (Gospel). He wanted to make the law of G<>d small enough for human consumption. He wanted some limits, some boundaries, some parochial ilnes within which to work comfortably. At Mass, this congregation be comes the Church of Christ, is the Church of Christ. But how inadequately if we are parochial or statist or nationalist, if we are not fully conscious of our solidarity with humankind. WEDNESDAY - St. Clare, Virgin. Mankind is two in one flesh with Christ. He is the bridegroom (Collect, First Read. ing, Gospel, Communion Hymn) and the human family is the bride. The Eucharist is the mar. riage feast, the pledge of heaven where our flesh will know the glory that His flesh now pos sesses. Fidelity and prudent care muS't guard this relation ship, lest we be excluded who have thus far the grace of ac ceptance.

ous and has pro portionately less goo d farming land. So u th America, more than twice the size of the United States with Alaska thrown in, faces Africa rather than Europe and lies at a greater distance from China, India, the Middle EaS't and Europe than does the United States. South America stretches 4,508 miles in length and about 3,00f) miles in width. The West Coast is paralleled by a mountain range running the full 4,500 milea from Venezuela to the tip fIIf Chile; in reality a wall of be tween'three and four miles .. height...

Rain Forest On the eastern side of these Andes Mountains one finds • rain forest-an area' of unceas ing rainfall. Below that is the Amazon Basin which is larger than the distance from New York to Liverpool. The Amazoa has seven rivers emptying into it and each is 'over 1,000 miles long. Here is a vast irrigated area but because of heavy rain fall and frequent flooding the land is agriculturally unproduc tive. From the United States-Me:ll ico border to the end of Chile, is an area of eight million square miles, almost equal to Europe and the United States combined. Nowhere else in the world do mountain ranges, deserts and forests present such formidable obstacles to the activities of man and development of an area. 25% of Latin America is moun tainous, 25% swampy and 1O'lt desert. All Races The people of this land tenet to live in large cities that focus on the coasts, or in small pockets within the folds of the moun tains. Latin America has 7% of the peoples of the world and the population is a human kaleido scope. All the races are the~ white, brown, black and yellow. The people are immigrants from three continents: Africa, Asia and Europe. The Indians are be lieved to have immigrated across the Bering Strait from Asia. Thf 16th ceritury European mi gration was mostly Spanish and Portuguese; in modern times Central and Northern Europe and England have provided a goodly share of the settlers, Into this mixture of people and places we send the Papal Volunteers.

:Prelate Upholds Non-Conformity Of Christi«;l"s WASHINGTON(NC) Bishop John J. Wright of Pittsburgh told an assembly of American and foreign· students that while· Christians must labor in the world, they must retain a measure of non conformity to it. .. Speaking during a Mass at the Interfederal Assembly of Pax Romana, a Catholic student and melleduals' group, held at Geor getown University, the Bishop declared there must always be sharp differences between the Christian and the world. "So far as the spirit of the world is concerned, the Chris tian is and must always be a non-conformist in order that he may imitate that Christ who was in the world, but not of it, loved the world and died for it, but did not conform to its dictates," he said. "Your non-conformity," he told the students, "must ·be one not only of dissent from the maxims of the world, but also of discontent with the level of excellence which the world finds quite enoug'h, indeed more than enough where morality and per fection are concerned. ,Enrich Common Good "Such a non-conformity, es sential to your vocation both as Christians and intellectuals, will make you exemplars in our day of how the believers obey the established laws, but in their private lives rise far above the laws; promote the common good and share the consensus that pro tleots it, but in their heroic super natural effort enrioh that com mon good far beyond the limited understanding of. the median average of any mere. consensus that the cruldren of the world can grasp." The Christian non-oonform ists, said Bishop Wright, "under stand and implement the pro found meaning of detachment, the spiritual techniques by whioh the Christian humanist is able to love every created goodness, truth and beauty, yet be a prisioner of none and re main the ohild of God, the heir to God's uncreated treasures."

THE ANCHOR '7 'Happy Family High SchooZ'Source of Pride Thurs., August 6, 1964 To St. Lawrence Parish in New Bedford Senator Scores
They're both blue-eyed and brown-haired. They both belong to the National Honor Society. And they're both outstanding seniors-to-be at Holy F'amily High School, New Bedford. They're Christine Ponichtera and Kevin Healy. Most senior class officers haven't been named as yet, they s,ay, but alJtady Christine is sodality prefect and Kevin is assis tant editor for Maria, the '.'ri:."'~.ua school yearbook. In previous ~'. ,'II; years Kevin was sophomore class president and Christine was dramatics club secretary. Kevin's active in the Junipero Club and the Chess Club at Holy Family and his chief out side interest is Junior Achieve. ment, an organization which promotes business activity on the part of young people to help them prepare for future careers. Kevin has been' in JA two
years and proudly wears its "ex ecutive pin." To earn it, he ex plains, he had to merit two pre vious awards and pass an exam ination. JA youngsters for the most part form manufacturing companies, making and market ing such items as costume jew elry. But Kevin is secretary of :lA's bank, which serves 29 flourishing businesses and takes in two or three hundred dollars each of three nights a week it's in operation. "The other groups make things, but we make money," says Kevin. He is a member of St. Law rence parish in New Bedford and the son of Mr. and Mrs. Milton E. Healy. He has two brothers, one in the service, the other a student at the University of Massachusetts. Kevin him ·self hopes to be an architectural engineer, and attend SMTI or the U. of Mass. "I like to look at house plans in the paper, I like to draw, and I like math," he says. "Put them all together, and it seems to a.dd up to architecture." In addition to his JA work, Kevin holds a part time job at a neighborhood grocery. He de livers by bicycle. "What hap pens when there's a big order? "I suffer," he grimaces. A highlight of the past Spring for Kevin was the CYO tour to the World's Fair. "Was it fun!" he recalls, and he hopes to make the trip again next year. A trip to New York is still in the offing for pretty Christine. She'll attend the Summer School of Catholic Action there this month as her sodality's prefect. She names English as her fav 0rite subject and tennis, bowling and swimming as favorite sports. The daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Chester Ponichtera, she's a mem ber of Our Lady of Per petual Help parish and active as secretary of its CYO. She has one brother, who'll be a senior at Providence College as she's a senior at Holy Family. Christine hopes to attend Salve Regina College and be come a nurse. At present she leans toward pediatrics as a speciality. Both youngsters enjoy attend ing Holy Family. "You can't get lost," says Christine. "You know nearly everyone."
Prelate Condemns Smut Publications
SYDNEY (NC)-"Today more than ever, children are being exploited by publishers of im moral books, papers and mag azines," according to Norman Cardinal Gilroy of Sydney. The ranking Australian prel ate said in a speech at the open ing of a new high school in sub urban Ashfield that some news venders estimate that 80 per cent of the trash publications are be ing sold to youth. "Parents should warn their children to beware of this type of publications that could make them as degraded as the people who p~blish them." he .aid.
TV Violence, WASHINGTON (NC) - The chairman of the Senate's juve nile delinquency subcommittee charged here that the situation with regard to excessive vio lence on television is in some ways worse today than it was two years ago. Sen. Thomas J. Dodd of Con necticut said "unjustifiable vio lence and brutality permeate" many new TV shows, and many offensive shows of earlier sea sons have been syndicated and are now being reshown on inde pendent stations.
"We discover that the most violent shows of two years ago are today shown during earlier broadcasting hours than they were originally designed for," Dodd said. "There has been little or no editing of objectionable content. This means these pro grams are being made available to a much larger and younger group of children than ever before." Dodd made his charges as his subcommittee opened a new series of hearings on TV crime and violence. It made similar .tudies in 1961 and 1962.
Set Clambake This Sunday, Aug. 9, is the date chosen for the annual clam bake ,of Mt. Carmel Church, New Bedford, To be held at Holy Ghost Grounds, Westport, the event will feature games, snacks and the bake. Tickets will be available at the church on Sunday or may be obtained from committee .members. Charles Silva Jr. heads a large arrangements committee,
Kevin Healy and Christine Ponichtera "There's a close relationship with the teachers, too," adds Kevin. First Co-Ed School Holy Family, organized In 1904, was the first co-educational high school in the Diocese. It was preceded in St. Lawrence parish by St. Joseph's High, which was founded in 1884 by Rev. Hugh J. Smyth, then pastor. St. Joseph's continued until 1900 when an increasing enroll ment of grammar school stu. dents in the parish forced its closing to make space available to them. By 1904, however, Father Smyth was able to reopen the high school in a new building, now Holy Family grammar school. Continued growth made another building necessary and in 1915 the present Holy Family High was constructed. Although intended for St. Lawrence pa rishioners, the school has always accommodated boys and girls fro m other New Bedford parishes. In 1921 Father Smyth, by then Msgr. Smyth, died and Rev. John F. McKeon became pastor of St. Lawrence's. He fondly nicknamed his school "Happy Family High School" and it was his habit to read grades to
the assembled students at the end of each marking period. In 1956 Father McKeon, also by then a Monsignor, died and was succeeded as pastor by a Holy Family alumnus, Most Rev. James J. Gerrard of the class of 1914. Bishop Gerrard has con tinued the tradition of fatherly interest in Holy Family and fre quently addesses the student body on religious and other topics. Holy Family's Alumni Asso ciation now numbers some 3,000 men and women and is an active group, maintaining over the years its interest in its alma mater.

Neverth,~ less, there was a gentle accep't ance of all this in the City of St. Francis. Even the police were tolerant. And then to sightseeing: a visit to Fisherman's Wharf for food unknown in our part of the country, a boat trip around AI catraz and Golden Gate BridgE!, a session on the city's uniqu<~ cable cars, a trip to the tower, another to "The Top of thl~ :Mark", to Nob Hill, Telegraph Hill, then hours and hours ill fascinating Chinatown.

'1'he very thought of visiting San Francisco, especially in July, 1964 sent this columnist into a tiz of excitement. "You'll love it, Mom," Markie from experience corroborated what we had always heard about the Golden Gate City. "It's suave, sophisticated and friendly. And everybody is well groomed at all times," she emphasized. "Now, let's see about your clothes." To gether, and in plus-90 degree heat, we went over clothes my own and Markie's which she generously cffered. "None of these dreary pastel cottons you wear around here," came the High Fashion edkt. ' "The dark cotton suit will be O.K. for the plane, and if you should find a warm' day you eould wear it again, but press it every time." "Press it?" "Sure with my travel iron." She bro~gh.t out a compact iron in its case, tucked it into a cor ner of one of my suitcases. "Be Bure to press these dark dresses, 1he knits will be all right with the steam in the shower.

Explains Tendency to Assert Superiority
B,. .Jolm .J. Kane. Ph.D. "I am about 110 make my annu III visit to my daughter who lives
miles away. But I don't know how to cope with my son-in-law. He is well educated, a convert, and provides well for his family. But he is an authority on just about everything. When we at tempt to discuss education, poli tics, religion, almost anything, he becomes an DOyed. He is ir ritable, and if my daughter eaUs him a sec end time, he shouts, 'I 'heard ,.au the first time.' But he does want me to visit." An in vitation to visit should not al ways be taken " literally. 'l'he casual "Why don't ~ drop in to see us sometimes." should be regarded more as a eourteous expression than a for mal invitation. So the first question is wheth er this behavior of your lIOll-in law occurs only during your vis its or is it always so?

The tendency to be an author tty on just about everything is a eommon human faiHng. It is even an occupational hazard for eertain fields. College profes sors, physicians, and priests I!IOmetimes fall into the habit because of the expectations they encounter among people that they MUST know the answer. But education and training in one area do not make you an authority in everything. Furthermore, tbe more formal education a person has, and e& peciaUy the more specialized his knowledge, the more keenly does he realize his ignorance of lI1any, man,. things.

Prelate Declines To Take Stand On Housing
CHICAGO (NC)-A Sout. Dakota priest has 1,000 In dians in his parish-but no curate and no nuns to help
LOS ANGELES (NC) James Francis Cardinal Mc Intyre has declined publicly to take a stand on an effort aimed at nullifying and prohib iting any type of fair housing legislation . in California. "'.[1he tea'ching of ~ Catholie Church <.'Oncerning the human dignity of aU per90llS and the duty of all to respect that dig nity is cle'ar and alwa'ys has been manifested," thearohbishop of Los Angeles said in a statement. But, he added, "when an is SUe is submitted to the people for vote, it does not behoove the archbishop of Los Angeles to encourage the clergy to pre sume to direct the faiifihful in the expression of their individ ual judgment and consequent vote. In such pol:itical matters our positioin is to leave the decision to the individual eon IICience." Cardinal Mcintyre's statement referred to Proposition 14 on the November ballot which, if adopted by CalJiforma voters, would nullify existing state fair h()using legislation and prohibit IJUch legislation in the future. BL'Shops Oppose The bishops of five other Cali fornia dioceses--San Francisco, Sacramento, Santa Rosa, Oak land, and Stockton-have gone on record opposing Proposition 14.

Two Dioceses Get Permits For ETV
Plan Educational TV Conference
WASHINGTON (NC) The Brooklyn and Rockville Centre, N.Y., dioceses have received construction permits from the Federal Communica tions Commission authorizing them to utilize a new educa tional television service opened up last year by the FCC. They are the first Catholic dioceses in the country and the first groups operating large school systems, public or private, to receive such authorization from the FCC. The newly granted permits will allow the two dioceses to undertake construction of trans mission facilities for a new 2500 megacycle instructional televi sion service. Three more di oceses-New York, Miami, and Baltimore--are preparing appli cations to the FCC for construc tion permits, while several oth ers are taking preliminary steps. The granting ()f construction permits to the Brooklyn and Rockville Centre dioceses was hailed as marking "a coming of age for Catholic education in the use of the new communications media" by Father John M. Cul kin, S.J~, television consultant tc the National Catholic Educa tional Association. Cooperative Plannin~ "These new channels open up new areas for cooperative plan ning and programming to meet eommon needs with national re sources," Father Culkin said. "It now becomes possible to think in concrete terms of courses and. series ()f programs on video tape and film using the best teaching talent in the country. "The new microwave channels both create the need for such cooperatively produced pro- , grams and at the same time pro vide an efficient and economic distribution system for these programs. We hope that this action by the FCC will encourage other school systems to take ad vantage of these same oppor tunities."

r ells Youth Good Readin~1 LE~ads to God By Joseph T •. McGloin, S.J. A lot of tOday's teachers and parents deplore that fact that television has cut deeply into our reading. And yet, sales of all kinds of reading material especially paper-backs-are fab_ ulous. It must be true that some people are reading less and en joying it less, and this perhaps . because of television, but it could also be true that some others actually read more be cause previous. ly they never 8 a t still long enough to read a book, and now they are forced to do so m e reading because it's im possible to en dure all that television without distraction. I suspect, in fact, that you teen-agers, as a group are read ing more than teen-agers ever have. But the important consid eration isn't that you read-it's what you read. Literarily Retarded Among the many indicators of maturity or the lack of same, a person's reading habits are going to be quite prominent. The avowedly mature young man who is still lapping up girlie magazines is still in his emo tional infancy. And th.!:! gal who still pines and pants over "true romance" pulp is far from adulthood. Un fortunately, there are some pret ty old babies in this' old world. The fact is that you teen-agers are too mature now for only comic books and pulp. SO' don't keep yourselves literarily re tarded. Has Purp~ Reading, to even the minimal ly mature, has a connection with one's purpose in life just as everything else has. In other words, it's not only for enter tainment (that too), but it's sup posed to help you get closer to God somehow. Your reading, like knowledge, is invariably going to show you something about God-either di rectly or indirectly - the God who is Beauty, Truth and Good ness. Or else it's going to take you away from Him. Undoubtedly, in your reading 80 far, you've encountered some great heroes of history, past and contemporary, and undoubtedly, too, you've encountered some who were such only in their own minds and in the minds of the superficial. You're mature enough now to

From Expedition
PITTSBURGH (NC) - Du quesne University has announced it is dropping its support of an African expedition by a Scottish anthropologist who believes white men are superior to eolored. Dr. Robert Gayre was to lead the one-year expedition whose purpose was to see if white men had filtered into African coastal regions and accounted for the comparatively high civilizations found in some areas before Eu ropean settlers reached there in the 1500s. Details of Duquesne's with drawal were not disclosed. The institution is operated by the Holy Ghost Fathers.

look in, at least occasionally, e,n the genuine heroes of history- Christ and His saints. Life of Ignatius You may recall a young man named Ignatius who was Shl)t down off a wall, his legs sha'; tered by a cannon-ball. As t..e recuperated, he asked for tt..e romances of the day. since the!ie and military books were the only reading he cared for. To his dismay, only some livE!s of Christ and the saints were available and so, reluctantl:r, and just to pass the tedious tim,~, he began to read these. It wasn't long before he began to see that Christ and His saints made pygmies of history's giants. And, being somewhat stub. born and proud, Ignatius said to himself, "If these people di:;.. tinguished themselves this wa~', so can I." Start With Scriptures It shouldn't take a cannon-ban to get you doing some of the right kind of reading. Start witll the real source of all good spir itual reading - the Scripture:l. Read just a little bit a day, from both the Old and New Testa ment. But, as you read, don't force it down as you would medicinE!. Read with your imagination, visualizing the place where Christ sat as he spoke, seein.~ the people He spoke to, puttin,~ yourself in, the crowd too, ami transferring His words to your own contemporary idiom. Look into an occasional articl,e or book that will guide yOll through Scripture, giving you some background for a more in. telligent and perceptive. appre ciation of these timeless book~~ Life of Christ Get a good life of Christ (such as Jim Bishop's Th,~ Day Christ Died, or Alban Goodier's completely fascinatinl~ and absorbing Life of Christ) and let yourself be captured blr

Read about those tremendous men who were the Apostles, look into great soldier saints like Camillus, rugged saints like Brebeuf and Jogues, lovable, human saints like Francis of Assisi and the Little Flower, lay men and women saints like Thomas More and Mary Magda lenE!, intellectual saints like ThoJPas and Augustine and Ter~sa of Avila, and simple lov ablE! saints like the Cure of Ars. Read a few of the very inter esti:lg books on the spiritual life, on positive, moral and ascetical theology. Read books about morals which give \Tou their "wl:.y" rather than only a cata. log of "Don'ts." Read philoso phy and theology written as Father Farrell does it in his Compannion to the Summa. Spiritual Novel Or, if you're real tired, pick up something along the line of' a "!:piritual novel," such as the charming Mass of Brother Mic:lel. There's a lot of good reading before you-if you have the ini tial maturity and energy to get at ::t. You can estimate your maturity by your reading-by the discipline, for instance, you exercise in reading something a litU~ tougher on occasion in stead of just drifting along- and wasting all your reading time on junk. Remember - reading, Ii k e 'everything else, is either going to g~t you closer to God or take you farther from Him. This is, of course, always your OWD choice.

Race Relations
Continued from Page One Catholic diocese m. Lafayette. A cruel and unbelievable erime was committed against one of our priests who is a mem ber of a society which has been very generous to our diocese, both as regards money and priests, priests who have labored zealously among our colored Catholics. The good priest was assaulted and whipped by sev eral Catholic white men. It is God Hims~lf who says:
"Touch ye not my anointed." (Ps. 104, 15) So grave is the of fense of striking a priest that Mother Church PUnishes this act with excommunication as in-' dicated in Cano.n 2343, No.4 As an act of reparation for this truly sad incident, a half hour of prayer before the Blsssed Sacrament exposed will be held in every parish church of the diocese on the first Friday, Aug. 7. Over and above the act of reparation, we shall pray that' a change of heart will come about in other places where the spirit of rebellion against the teachings of the Church regard ing race exists. You will recall our action of Oct. 16, 1959, when interference against participation of Negroes in religious instruction through diocesan marriage courses was declared a reserved sin. By these presents, the same penalty is now extended to all those who interfere with our colored Cath olics in the practice of their re ligion or who join groups whose purpose it is to oppose the teach ings of Mother Church regarding racial relations. These Catholics cannot possibly be absolved in confession or approach the holy Table unless there be' a change of disposition. Without this change, one would be guilty of the sacriligious reception of these sacraments. This letter must be read at all , the Masses in the churches and chapels of the diocese on Sun day, Aug. 2. May the good God and Father of us all preserve us from fur ther disturbances of this nature and in His boundless mercy may He grant us a better understand ing and practice of His all embracing law of charity. Given from the episcopal res idence on the 27th day of July, 1964. Faithfully yours in the Lord, ffi Maurice Schexnayder Bishop of Lafayette P. S. It is comforting to know that the men involved have given good evidence of sincere repentance and have made their apologies. M.S.

Saving Canceled Stamps Easy, lnexpensiv~ Way to Aid Mission Endeavors of Church From time to. time, one reads appeals for used postage stamps to help some particular mission or missionary. Considering the tons of such material available, very little of it is ever put aside for these workers in Christ's vineyard who request it. Very likely, one reason that the appeal falls on deaf ears is the average Catholic's failure to understand that used postage stamps are a very real source of in come to many a Catholic mis sionary. We don't realize two important facts which make it so:-l) there are millions of American stamp collectors and 2) these used postage stamps can be and are sold to dealers by the pound at various prices,de pending on quality and the con dition of the stamp mixture market. The stamp collecting in dustry is a strong and healthy one and there is a constant de mand for this material from specialists and students of the various stamp issues. Please Help

State Liquor Control Commis

of a "Playboy" night club here
following a hearing at which the
head of the Cincinnati Chamber

need of "high class" entertain

The decision, which reversed
an earlier ruling by the state
liquor director, was criticized by
Auxiliary Bishop Paul F. Lei

newspaper, the Catholic Tele

Playboy Clubs are semi-pri
vate night clubs, inspired by
Playboy magazine, in which
scantily-clad "bunny girls" serve
drinks to customers.
Bishop Leibold, whose St. Louis parish is near the pro , posed site of the club, said he was "disappointed but not sur
prised" at ,the decision. He said
civic leaders had taken a "ridicu
lous position" in saying the club
would be no menace to public morals. "Now it is up to the people to decide by their rate of patron

Lauds Christian Social By Msgr. George G. Riggins '-
Eric von Kuehnelt-Leddihn, a eosmopolitan Austrian Catholic journalist whose constant com ings-and-goings from one dis tant part of the world to the other make Columbus, Marco Polo, and Magellan look like stay-at-homes or shut-ins, is a hard man to pin down or to categorize ideologically. One day he writes -- in The Common weal, for ex ample -like a moderate "lib eral" and the next day - in the National Review, for ex ample - like a hard bitten "conservative." And now and then he seems to play it down the middle. I always enjoy reading Mr. ~. Leddihn, even when he is in one of his most stubbornly conserva_ tive moods, but I must admit that some of his writings on the subject of Catholic social teach ing leave me rather confused. 'Catholic Sentimentalist' Take, for example, his article "'The Problem of the Catholic Social Sentimentalist," in the May 19 issue of National Review. The thesis of this article-if I have understood it correctly-is that "the ever mounting fasci nation with 'social justice,' to day prevalent among Christians in general and Catholics in par ticular," is dangerous and dem agogic sentimentalism. "In the last 200 years of West ern history," Mr. Leddihn in forms us with a sweeping rhe torical flourish, "the sentimen talists crusading for some sort of 'justice' or to right the balance' have caused more tears and bloodshed than the simple, ego tistic materialists who merely erave for earthly goods." Fails to Name It would be easier to under stand what this rhetoric means if Mr. Leddihn had taken the trouble to name a few names. One would like to know who these "sentimentalists" really are and why they are thought to be so dangerous. Who, for example, are the misguided Christians who s e "sentimentalism is greatly re sponsible for the steady growth of Italian Communist votes * *?" and to whom is Mr. Leddihn re ferring when he says that cer tain Christians in Europe, pos sessed of a "purely strategicai tactical * * ,. and utterly un ~t Christian" fear that Christians may miss the boat, are convinced that they will "have to take the wind out of the sails of Social ism and Communism-by aping some of their policies?"

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Thurs., Aug. 6, 1964
Conce~ebration ContinueC' from Page One eus parts of the world but al ways in private - meetings of various clergy. Now, for the first time, Pope Paul authorized a public concelebration and it , is expected that this may happen ,often during the Eucharistic Congress to be held in Bombay, 'India, toward the end of the year. , Private Occasions On July 19, in the presence of Cardinals Lercaro and Bea; of 'the episcopal members of the Post-Conciliar Liturgical Com ,mission and of some laymen, 20 Benedictine monks celebrated Mass together with their, Abbot. ,Primate at St. Anselm's Abbey, ,Rome. On July 24, it was disclosed 'tha t the Benedictine monastery of Calcar and the Dominican 'eonvent of Soissons had obtained 'permission for concelebration. ,The privilege had already been 'granted by the Post-Conciliar lilII,Commission on the Liturgy. Pre ,viously, certain monasteries, .among which the Benedictine Abbeys of Monserrat (Spain), 'Maredsous (Belgium), Maria ,Laach (Germany), St. Anselm (Rome) and St. John College ville, U. S.) had already obtained authorization, it was mentioned. At the first meeting of the superiors of monks and nuns of Africa held at the Benedictine ,monastery of Bouake, the Ivory Coast's first Benedictine priest presided at the opening Mass which was concelebrated and the bishop of the diocese did the same with the priests present for the closing Mass. First in Public The underground basilica of St. Pius X at Lourdes was the scene of the first public concel· ebration offered according to the Vatican 'Council's suggestion. This was done by special per mission of Pope Paul VI himsslf. The Mass was presided over by Cardinal Ferretto of the Roman Curia on the occasion of the pilgrimage of 500 sick Italian priests to Lourdes. The Cardinal was joined by 24 priests, most of whom were Italian. It was wit nessed by pilgrims from France, Italy, Luxembourg, England, Ire land, Belgium, Germany and in the presence of many bishops as well. On Tuesday, July 28, another eoncelebration occurred but this time in the Grottoes of the Mar ian Shrine and under the presi dency, of Bishop Theas, Bishop of Tharbes and Lourdes. Why ConceIebration The Eucharist is not only a sacrifice and sacrament but it is the symbol of unity. It is taken ~ as THE symbol of the Church's most perfect sign-testimony of her unity. Hence, on the occasion of a gathering of priests, how can this unity of the Church be shown. These men are priests and priests for all eternity. Never can they be or act as lay men. Therefore, if they were to attend Mass as though they were iayinen, they would not be showing publicly their own status nor the type of unity that the Church wishes to show in the celebration of the Eucharist. Thus, the Church wishes that these priests associate them selves-participate in a special way-with thll 'one who is the ehief celebrant. This should be the normal way for a Bishop to celebrate in the presence of his priests or for all to unite at the altar on the occasion of some meeting, synod, retreat or other assembly. Historical Development The celebration of the Eucha rist was never a private affair. Even if a priest celebrates Mass in some dark l~orner of a lonely church, it is Christ and the en tire Church' that offers the sac rifice, to God. In early times, the community
Encouraged
and hierrarchical unity was stressed in the celebration of Mass. All the priests were to impose hands on the offerings although only the presiding cel ebrant would recite the words of Consecration. Later, at Papal Masses espe cially, all the Cardinals present were to stand at the altar with the Pope during the Mass. They would hold a corporal in their hands on which lay the offerings and they would recite the Canon aloud with him and consecrate the offerings along with him. Gradually this was reserved only for solemn feasts, then only for Holy Thursday and then it dis appeared altogether. ' In the Eastern Church, the practice survived and is pres ently the normal thing in the Byzantine Rite and the usual thing for great feasts for other Eastern Rites. A form of con celebration does occur on the occasion of the ordination of priests and the consecration of bishops even in the Latin Rite today. Council's Decision Paragraph 57 of the Council's Decree on the Sacred Liturgy speaks of and encourages con celebration and the Post-Concil iar Commission on the Liturgy has drawn up an appropriate rite. The decree stated: "Concele bration, whereby the unity of the priesthood is appropriately manifested, has remained in use to this day in the Church both in the east and in the west. For this reason it has seemed good to 'the Council to extend con celebration to the following cases: -on Holy Thursday's Mass of Chrism and the Commemoration of the Lord's Supper; at Masses during councils, bishop's conferences, and syn ods' -at the Mass for the blessing of an Abbot." The Council's Decree also en courages concelebration "with permission of the Ordinary, to whom it belongs to decide whether concelebration is op portune: -at conventual Mass, and at the principal Mass in churches when the needs of the faithful do not require that all the priests available should cele brate individually; -at Masses celebrated at any kind of priests' meetings * • ." j
