Church's Foreign 'Missions Need Young Catholic Married Couples, WASHINGTON' (NC) - Recruitment of young Catholic married couples for service in the Church's foreign missions was recommended here at the 13th annual meeting' of U.

Major Problems At the same session Joseph Cardinal Ritter, Archbishop of St. Louis, said a vast new mission effort is needed if the Church is to cope with three major problems: , The fact that the percentage of Catholics in the world population drops every year.

on keeping Catholic school students from riding· on Midwest City public school buses. Blanshard was listed as a consulting attorney in a brief filed on behalf of John L. Antone with the Oklahoma Supreme Court. The Antone brief was ill answer to a pleading submitted by 10 parents of children who attend St. Philip Neri School in Midwest City. The parents and the Midwest City school officials appealed from a District Court ruling last year which barred Catholic students from riding the public school buses. Cite lPrecedents Until the court action was instituted, the Catholic students, in a "good neighbor" gesture, had been allowed to ride the buses along regular school routes. The arrangement had the approval of Oscar Rose, Midwest City public: 'school superintendent. The parents' brief with th~ state high court said the education of their children at the Catholic school served a publie purpose and the bus rides assured greater Isafety for the youngsters. The parents contended there are precedents in Oklahoma and other states by which aid is extended to church-related projects when they are rendered for the public welfare. The Blanshard touch was evident in the Antone brief. Blanshard is a frequent rally speaker and legal counsel for Protestanta and Other Americans United for Separation of Church and State (POAU), an organization which consistently has opposed Catholic policies.

HONG KONG (NC) The "non-stop" hospitality of the Little Sisters of the Poor, and the "humane" foresight of a representative of Catholic Relief Services - National Catholic Welfare Conference were applauded here by Bishop Law r e nee Bianchi, P.I.M.E., of Hong Kong. The occasion was the formal opening by Gov. Sir Robert Black of the Little Sisters' new $350,000 home at Aberdeen for 400 destitute and infirm aged poor. . Bishop Bianchi, in his address of welcome, pointed out that it was Father Paul J. Duchesne, M.M., who a decade ago while Hong Kong director of Catholic Relief Services-NCWC, had forseen the urgent need for a home for the aged on Hong Kong Island. Father Duchesne is now director of CRS-NCWC in Vietnam. Vow of 'IHIospitalay' "To Father Duchesne," said the Bishop, "belongs the credit, I may say the glory, of having first put forward the idea. It' was, moreover, his determined advocacy and his hard work that gave the original impetus to the whole project, and it was through his help that the Llppropriate contacts were originally made." In describing the work of the Little Sisters who are vowed to serve poor and abandoned old .people without regard to faith, the Bishop added that one might think they also took a "vow of hospitality," for the aged under their care al'e considered and treated as "honored guests and privileged members of the household."

Bishop Ahr, a former rector of the Newark archdiocesan seminary, said that God in His wisdom established the priesthood to "provide for the normal relationship between man and God." It is through the priest, he said, that "we touch the hem of God's garment." The priest, he said, is an extension of God's love because he is "an extension of the priestlhood of Christ." The priest is another Christ "because he speaks in the Name and the Person of Christ," he said.

CHICAGO (NC)-"There was no Federal question involved in the New York prayer case," an attorney said here. a The statement was made by Clarence Manion, a former dean of the University Law School and now a partner in a law firm in South Bend, Ind. He was referring to the U. S. Supreme Court's decision outlawing an official Regents prayer recited in New York State schools. "The main point of this controversy," Manion said at a din-' ner "is not that the Supreme Court decided the case badly, but that it presumed to decide it at all. In the constitutional law of this case the decision of the highest court of the State of New York was final, a'nd the review of this decision by the Supreme Court of the U. S. was purely and unfortunately gratuitous."

Suffer,the Little Children
These Weeks o
If the calls of Pope John and Bishop Connolly are taken seriously and Catholics of the world and of this Dio,. cese of Fall River give themselves wholeheartedly to the task of prayer and sacrifice during these weeks preceding the opening of the Second Vatican Council, then the very atmosphere of this area should be charged in' a way that would be apparent to all, and especially to, those not of the Faith. If men and women' and' children pray the Novena before the Council with their lips and hearts and sacrificial actions, then the Bishop would leave for Rome with, the assuran~e that the flock committed' to his care has pleaded with the Holy Spirit to guide him in' his great roll as a Father of the Council. ( The work of this Council could influence the course of Christianity and the world for centuries to come. It is with the serious knowledge of this significance ,that the next few weeks must be lived. And, above all else, there must be the confidence that the Holy Spirit will be responsive to the earnest prayers of the faithful.

No one would ever downplay the importance of Communism on the world'scene. No one would want to de-emphasize the threat that it pose&. )3ut, at the same time, there is a danger that people will .become so mesmerised by the communist evil that their own actions will really be dictated by communist· moves-reacting against what Communism does, matching its"maneuverings, trying to offset its advances. . , And, as Auxiliary Bis~op 'Fearns of New . York told the Sodality Congress of Lay Apostolate, Catholics should work to achieve the aims of Christian. social morality not just ,as a way of ,fighting Communism but because: these ahns are good in themselves. "These are objectives that must be pursued for them.:. selves, not merely because we, wish to present our way of ' life as more attractive t~an Communism . .". If our only objective is opposition to Communism, there will be no more appeal in it than there is in any hollow shell of 'hypocrisy." , Christianity must take the initiative, must be presented not only as'the answer to Communism but as a way of life that existed long before Communism and will exist long after it. It must be seen 'as the only way that men can live a life that makes sense, a life in union with Christ and for God. ',. It is debasing Christianity to see it only as an answer to the present danger of Communism. It is that, but it is so much more than that. and this must be the emphasis and the presentation.

By REV. ROBERT W. HOVDA, Catholic University TODAY-SS. Cosmas and Damian, Martyrs. The beatitudes Jesus pronounces according to St. Luke are heard agaip in today's Mass. He is not blessing or praising the presence of, evils, whether physical or moral, in' our life. He is blessing those who can put up with such evils for the love of God and man. For the evils will disappear and then man's proper rejoicing and exultation will have the day. TOMORROW-St. Wenceslas, Martyr. It is impossible to think of the Church without thinking of our brothers, for they and we are the Church. So the Gos. pel, 'vith semitic strength, makes clear the kind of love a Christian must bring to his friends and to bis enemies. No compromise of truth, of Gospel message, to salve the straining family ties. A break may be most healthy. And yet no pride of life-only a willingness to spend yourself for others, to give to share. So the creed and the kiss of peace , are both a part of Mass.

Milk and Rolls Children enrolled in parochial schools across the 'nation have always played a significant part; in the Catholic story of charity throughout the world. In years gone by, they saved pennies and stamps and tin-foil to purchase Chinese babies-and 'many a youngater had to confess disappointment that the babies were not sent directly from the Orient to the classroom. The Lenten sacrifices of Catholic, school children in America are again aiding other children. The mayor of New Delhi, India, has publicly thanked Catholic Relief Services, an agency of the National Catholic Welfare Confer-' ence, for contributing to a project providing free milk and 'rolls to children' attending municipal schools! in that city. The Cathoiic charity agency is providing nine thousand pounds of flour a day and tbe milk necessary to feed forty thousand youngsters. , The youngsters are not asked what religion they professor what kind of a school they atteIid.The only standar4 of receiving is their'rieed and the charitable urgings of the 'American Catholics who hear i:n their requests for food the words Of, Christ, "I was hungry and you gave me to eat." \ This is a program of perSOn to person aid.

What-. ever the sickness may be called, ,the mother will' be there with her own breast heaving and qUaking at the child's drawn breath and cough. The slightest change and her heart skips a beat. Yet, how about that child's supreme happiness-that of being blest>ed with God for all eternity? Numberless people who call themselves Christian w 0 u I d ,have their children walk the dangerous tightrope of childhood and youth, hoping that they may soon get the chance to be baptized. Problem Those who left their fathers' house in the Protestant Revolution nearly all kept the ceremony. But for many it was just that and not a Sacrament as we know it. It was some 'kind of a contract in which a soul bargained, with its Creator for a fuller participation in life. Since it was something .of a contract it had to be worked out by all adult. , Luther assumed that at the moment of Baptism the child would miraculously be elevated to an adult by God and granted the faculties to make an act of Faith. More recent Christian but non-Catholic theologians have emphasi~ed the responsibility element in Baptism and thus have also demanded only adult baptisms. There is something to their arguments for an adult respond_ ing to the various questions, preparing himself, learning of and exciting within Himself the divinely given Faith that makes the Baptism much more fruitful. However, Baptism is not only some kind of contract which we can enter inte according to our wishes. Eternal Salvation is not something we apply for ,and pay for. It is a freely given gift of God and ·the one condition for the reception of this gift is Baptism, History It has ever been the custom of the Church' from Apostolic times to baptize infants. Often we read of mass-baptisms in the Bible. In baptizing whole families and, their dependents, there is a strong presumption - with no contrary evidence - that the children of the families involved were also baptized. Coupled with the practice of doing so in early Church times and the customs that arose around such Baptisms, we can be, certain of the custome. Besides, it was so often compared with the Jewish Circumcision and we know that this was administered to infants. But the "Acts of the Apostles'" is not a Register of Sacraments Administered. The Fathers of the Churehsome who personally knew the apostles or the generations that did-are quickly to practice and preach this custom. Iranaeus, disciple of St. John expressly mentions the baptism of infants, children, and youths and 'the elderly. Origen, a few yeara later, points to fact of these customs and mentions that th~ were mherited from the Apostles.

Film Education In Classrooms WASHINGTON (NC) Hollywood in the classroom? The idea might seem surprising to many educators, but to Father John Culkin, S.J., it would be ,a natural .way of giving students what, be calls "all-media literacy." Father Culkin, consultant on films and television to the' National Educational Association here, firmly believes bringing to classroom and campus the same product you_ see in your neighborhood movie theater. The idea, he explained in, an :Interview, is not merely to make life a little more pleasant for the students. Rather, it is to develop in them the critical fa~ulties required for making intelligent judgments about the creations of the "image in:-. dustries" that occupy so large , o part of their everyday lives. 1m All Media Education in films and tele-' vison, he, maintains, is- "appropriate to the role of the school in shaping judgment." The aim is to develop, "allmedia literacy." At. present, he pointed out, schools are content if they train their students to be literate as regards printed material. Including the study of films in the schools it would expand students' literacy, make them "literate across the board." Quotes Pius XU 'Father Culkin stres,sed that the idea of studying films· as part of the Catholic educational program is not something that originated with him. In fact, it bas no' less precedent than that of the late Pope Pius XII, who in his 1957 encyclical Miranda Prorsus, on motion pictures, radio and television, commended programs of film study and said: "We desire them to be introduced into every type of school, Catholic Action groups, and parish societies." Pope 'Pius insisted that it is -essential that the minds and inclinations of the spectators be rightly trained and educated" for the intelligent evaluation of films and television.

Find Compromise Formula for Aid To Colleges,
THE ANCHOR11 Feehan Students llope Their Gift ,Altar Missal Thurs., 27, 1962' Will Be Used in Rome By Bishop Connolly More Vocations Sept.
Early next month, hundreds of prelates will convene in Vatican City for the SecWASIDNGTON ' (NO, ond Vatican Council. Someone of them will be using a Roman Missal for his daily House - Senate conferees have ended four months of' Mass which is the gift of the student body of Feehan High School. To provide enough frustration on the bill for missals for th~e use of the many priests, Bishops and Cardinals who will be in attendance Federal aid to colleges by, at the great Council of the hitting upon a formula to meet Church was only one' of the olleged constitutional problems. many details which have ()c': They agreed to help finance cupied those' preparing for 4:ollege constrllction by' giving iDutright grants for "special purposes" and makiJlg repayab}e loans for "general purposes." This approach is designed to end Senate reluctance about the constitutionality of giving grants for construction of any type of academic facUity to churchrelated colleges, as was provided in the original House version adopted in January. ,A bloc in the Senate, led by Southerners, has argued that general purpose grants would be unconstitutional in the case of church-related colleges. The' bill approved in February by the Senate would have given only loans to all types of colleges. Special'Purpose Grap.ts The House, on the other hand, insisted that both grants and loans, even for general purposes, would be constitutional. The compromise between these points of view is a proposal to spend $2.35 billion in five years, with about $1.5 billion for construction: The remainder would be for student aid and Brants to public junior colleges. Some $900 million would be [liven in grants. These funds could be used only to help finance ,libraries or buildings for ahe teaching of the natural and physical sciences and engineerAng-special purposes.' Exclude Chapels About $600 million would be available in repayable 'loans for general construction purposes. None of the assistance could be used to build ~hapels, divinity school buildings or spor,ts facilities to which admission would be charged. A commission in each state, li'epresenting all education with_ in the state, would recommend ao the Federal government which colleges and universities should get first crack at the v.tate's allotment of funds. '
Non-Catholics' Evince Spirit of Expectancy SAN ANTONIO (NC)-'A'lXillory Bishop Stephen A. Leven of San Antonio said here that there is a "spirit of expectancy" about the ecumenical' council among non-Catholics. Bishop Leven told a Catholic public relations seminar at St. Mary's University that this expectancy and good will are quite different from the attitude of many toward the First Vatican Council, which was labeled \Inimportant by ~he secular press. The prelate said the true mis_ sion of Catholic public relations representatives is to bring the truth and the beauty of the Church to the eyes of the public.
Hospital Association Jionors Religious CHICAGO (NC) Mother Loretto Bernard, Mother General of the Sisters of Charity of MO,unt St. Vincent, New York City, was presented with the American Hospital Association's Distinguished Service Award at the association's annual meeting here. In the 64-year bJstory of the association, Mother Loretto Bernard is the first woman to receive the medal: From '1938 to 1960 she was administrator of St. Vincent's Hospital, New York City, and for the past two years she has been Mother General.

the Council during the past two years. At the Mercy Educational Conference held in conjunction with the National Catholic Educational Association meeting in Detroit last April, the project of l!upplying the necessary missals was suggested to the Sisters of Mercy as a suitable contribution for their students to· make toward the Vatican Council. Sister Mary Josetta,' R.S.M., president of St. Xavier's College, Chicago; Illinois, was chairman o'f the project. When she v:isited ,R,ome in 1961, the idea was suggested to her by Msgr. Luigi Ligutti, Director for International Affairs for the National Catholic Rural Life Conference.
F:eehanites Cooperate Sister Mary Urban, R.S.M., principal of Feehan High School was a participant in the Mercy , Educational Conference, and, relying on the spirit of generosity and wholehearted cooperation of the Feehanites, she brought the suggestion to the student body on her return. In accord with the, Pope's plea for prayer and sacdfice to insure the success of the coming Council, students voted to give their sacrifices this tangible form. Their gift has been acknowledged ' both by Sister Mary Josetta and by Msgr. Ligutti. In his letter, Msgr. Ligutti expressed his appreciation for the timely gift of the missal "to be used in St. Peter's Basilica in the Eternal City." He promised the donors a mem~nto in his daily Mass in St. Peter's, and fte sent a copy of "L'Osservatore Romano" containing an account of the many and varied preparations underway for the Vatican Council. Feehanites are hoping that' Bishop Connolly will use their missal while in Rome for the Ecumenical Council, and· will read inside its cover the prOUd.
Schools to Curtail Social Activities BRIDGEPORT (NC) - A new policy announced here will deemphasize social activities, particularly dances, in Catholic high schools of the Bridgeport diocese. Father John F. McGough, di~ ocesan superintendent of schools, said that an accent on "the social spirit of the times" results in "early company keeping, steady dating, premature marriages and a general pattern of undue emphasis on social values." He stated that henceforth "greater emphasis'" will be placed "on the spiritual and moral development of our younll men' and women."
Monthly Meeting The regular monthly meeting of the Fall River Particular Council, Society of St. Vincent de Paul will be held at 8 P.M. next Tuesday. Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacrament will be given in Our Lady of the Angels Church, Dwelly Street, at 7:45 P.M. and the meeting will follow in the church hall on Tuttle Street.

Latin America's Greatest Need FORT LAUDERDALE ,(NC) - A program for recruiting more native vocations to the priesthood is the top nee,d of the Church in Latin America, Archbishop James P. Davis of San Juan, Puerto Rico, said here in Florida. "It is not lack of respect fOl1 the priesthood that lies at the root of the problem of Latin America, but in most instances ignorance of their opportunity and their duty," Archbishop Davis told the annual convention of District 30, Serra International. Some 80 members of Serra clubs in the Miami diocese and in San Juan attended the sessions at which Bishop Alfred Mendez, C.S.C., of Ar~cibo, P. R., also spoke. "If family life falls far, below the norm and the pattern of the Catholic ide,al, the climate favorable to vocati9ns is lacking an~ the basic difficulty must be overcome before the problems caused by it can be solved," the Archbishop said. lFamily Approach It is fortunate that Serra, which is dedicated to promoting vocations to the priesthood, has taken root in Latin America, he said. The particular "feature of Serra which will help so much in Latin America is that it is a family approach to the problem . in which the head of the family takes the initiative," the prelate added. "The impact of the message from laymen devoted to promo_ tion of vocations is a tremendous fQ]:ce for good," Archbishop Davis said. "If this be true in our case here at home it is more so in Latin America where the head of the family has been of a mind to let active interest in the Church be a matter for bJo wife and children."
Charity Starting Point for Unity' HANOVER (NC)-The startIng point in the work of Christian reunion is for Catholics to' develop sincere high regard for other Christians and a recognition of all that is good in their positions, Augustin Cardinal Bea said here. Cardinal Bea, president of the Vatican's Secretariat for Promoting Christian Jnity, gave an address during the Katholikentag, Germany's national Catholic convention, which drew well over 100,000 persons to this predominantly Protestant city. The Cardinal 'asserted that Christian reu~ion will not come automatically. It is therefore necessary to work for it, he said. Of the greatest importance in this work, he added, is the n~ed for Catholics to have a clear knowledge of tlW truth revealed by God and of the content of their own Faith, and also knowledge and full understanding of

Urges Increasedl Public Evidence Of Faith
BALTIMORE (N C ) Catholic facilities and se:r~ vices designed specifically for maritime personnel now exist in 68 U. S. ports, the 17th annual convention of the National Catholic Apostleship of the Sea Conference was told here. Father Thomas A. McDonough, C.SS.R., of New Orleans, executive secretary of the conference, disclosed figures on services available to maritime personnel in his report to the meeting. Father McDonough predicted that "eventually every port will have at least one chaplain-on Gea coasts, Great Lakes, navigable rivers and inland waterways." , 'Some 35 Catholic port chaplains along with lay members of the conference attepded the annual meeting. The National Catholic Apostleship of the Sea is an organization devoted to the religious, social and educational welfare of maritime personnel. Need Money, Prayers Father McDonough said in hbJ report that 74 priests are members of the conference, with 18 new members having joined in the past year. . He said replies to question-naires sent to 50 port chaplains in 44 ports showed that these .priests had contact wi~ 2,353,880 men last year. He said this figure .would be even higher if data were available from all U. S. ports. . , Chaplains contact~ said they 'had distributed 1l,484 packageD of reading material. One Protes_ tant chaplain was reported to ~ , gathering, used Ca,tholic readinJJ 'inaterial and saving it for distri~ bution among Catholics. . Needs'of port c~aplain8 rang~ from social centers for Catholic maritime clubs, money and prayers, to more fulltime priest~ ly help. In large maritime ports, Father McDonough· mid, the chaplains felt that a fulltime chaplain is an absolute necessity.

We may 'not place the light of our Faith undet: a basket. We must teach by word and by example. "There is nothing unmanly about giving public evidence of our Faith," he added. "It takes manly courage, at times the courage of martyrs, to profeSQ our Faith. As Catholics, we must · act in accordance with our conviction, that God is the supreme reality, and all our actions mus~ , evince our· dependence upon and submission to God and HilJ Laws."

Explorers' L,oss of Nerve Costly for Church, Nation
library huc~udes John X~~II Room
By Most Rev. Robert J. Dwyer, D. D. Bishop 01 Reno
There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune; Omitted, all the voyage of their life Is bound in shallows and in miseries'. 'Julius Caesar; IV 3.
There was such a tide, such a moment of fateful decision, in the experience of a little group of Franciscan friars and New Mexican frontiersmen, known to Western history as the Escalante Expedition ,of 1776. It is beyond question one of the mostcourageous exploits in the annals of exploration.Actually, however, if autho r i ty and command were to be reckoned, the party should have been known, all these years, by the name of its assigned leader, Fray Atanasio Dominiguez; but it was Fray Silvestre de Escalante who kept the diary of the journey and so reaped, however innocently, the rewards which a man of letters gains at the expense of a mere man of action. . Seek New Route The purpose of the expedition, in the mind of the Colonial government of Spain, was to seek out and map a more feasible route from the settlements in New Mexico to those springing . up in California. There was, it is tl\:ue, the direct path across present-day Arizona. fording the Colorado at Yuma, then striking out over the blistering deserts of Southern California, including the dreaded .Torada del Muerta-the Journey of Death. This route was extremely dangerous; the trail was marked by the bleaching bones of horses and cattle, and not a a few frontiersmen themselves had fallen victims of thirst or of the poisoned arrows of the peevish natives. Spirit Waning The plan, essentially conceived by that peerless empire-builder, Don rose de Galvez, Intendant of the Spanish Crown, was to try to knit together the far-flung outposts of. Spain's vast and unwieldy "Internal Provinces" of the borderlands. For he saw only too clearly that the sands were running' out. No longer was the Pacific a Spanish sea, what with British ships creeping around the Horn or slipping through the Moluccas, what with rumors of Russian aggression from Alaska down past Nootka Sound. And since the direct route was such a nightmare, would it be possible to open a kind of "loop route", running north out of Santa Fe, through southern Colorado and central Utah--to use geographical expressions famil-' iar enough to ourselves but then not even symbols of the mysterious unknown. Once the foremost of nations in expanding energy, Spain was fjndin~ it increasingly difficult, as the 18th century wore on, to maintain even the semblance 01. her former spirit. Enormous Odds To complement the Escalante party there was planned a similar expedition out of Yuma to explore the lower reaches of the Rio Colorado, at least as far as man and beast could penetrate that hell of sand and burl1ished stone.
The ideal would have been for the expeditions to work in concert, but feeble resources were pitted against enormous odds of distance and sheer 'geography. There is no qu~stion, however, but that each party was thoroughly apprized of the efforts of the other, and there is ,reason to believe thOat the discouragement which overcame the Santa Fe group was du~ to failure to make contact with Fray. Francisco Garces, the stalwart missionary at Yuma, or even to gather rumors of his Colorado expedition. Baffling Territory In optimistic spirits the Escalante party set out from Santa Fe on July 29--too late already, but the jaunt was supposed to be of only a few weeks' duration. With inefficient guides they wandered in the broken) baffling country of the Western Slope of Colorado, and lost much valuable time before entering Utah near the Jensen ford of the Green, with September upon them. There was no time to explore the lake of salt which, they were told, lay to the north of Timpan_ ogas, and no t~e for the pious friars to begin the instruction of the natives, famished as they seemed to be for something more than their outworn husks.' As the month ended the party turned sharply to the southwest. It seemed incredible that the sharp air should forebode snow and frost so early in the season. As they beat their way through the sage and pinion of Utah's western wastes the two Francis_ can friars contemplated the facts of their position. The country they had traver~d had proved immeasurably greater than anything they had conceived. Scanning the horizon to the West they could see nothing but the endless series of the Nevada ranges. Could they risk so heavy a chance? , The 'frontiersmen, headed by a doughty leatherhide named Bernardo Miera, were all for pressing westward. Four days, five days, they insisted, and California would lie unrolled at their feet. "Beyond those mountains lies Italy." Test of Chance It wouid have taken more than a week; there were endless deserts, endless barren range"s, even before the ultimate barrier of the Sierra at its highest, most forbidding stretch. But if they had made it, their fame would have been unequalled in all time. Even if they had tried and failed, they would have deserved supreme honor. What is it that dictates a failure of nerve? It was evident at this crisis and at this moment. The Franciscans, insisted OR putting the decision to the test of chance. On a bleak upland not far from the present-day village of Lund, Utah, they drew straws, and whether by honest brokerage, pious deceit, Oll!' sheer bad fortune, the, lots pointed to the quick way hOIlle, by the rords of ,the Colorado. ~ It was by such failure of nel"Wl that Spain lost an empire and the Church a dominion over the souls of men.

JOHN XXIII: , THE PEASANT WHO BECAME A POPE When Giuseppe Roncalli was elected Pope, many Vatican officials sensed a change in the air. And they were right I Unlike his predecessors, Pope John has traveled freely throughout Rome. Struck up chatty conversations with palace workmen. And even discarded the traditional velo vet slippers-for sturdy leather shoes. In this week's Post, you'll read about the Pope's ris~ from a humble village to the throne of St. Peter. Learn why he chose to reign under the name of John -instead of Pius. How his cheerful disregard of red tape and protocol has raised the eyebrows of Italian aristocrats. Why his rambling audiences were the despair of a Vatican newsman. And how his delightful sense of humor has endeared him to Catholics and non-Catholics alike.

Says Protestant Leader's Cha rge Is Irresponsible OTTAWA (NC) - A Protestant leader's charges that Roman Catholic immigration could "submerge" Canada and
~
to "elimination of free_
dom as we have known it" bas brought speedy comment branding the charge as "unfounded," "irresponsible," "ill advised" and "unChristian." Rev. Hugh A. MacLeod made the charges in his farewell address lIB moderator of the United Church of Canada at its general council meeting in London, Onto He said the United Church should be concerned "to determin' whether immigration must continue to operate overwhelmingly lW in the past 10 years to make Canada predominantiy Roman Catholic." "As people they (Roman Cath_ olics) ere doubtless estimable and capable of greatly enriching our nation. But as members of o church which everywhere ~avors the establishment of a monoHthic infallible authority under Rome, they may herald ond achieve the end of liberty as we have known it," Rev. MacLeod said. Express Disapproval "Who will say the Protestants in Russin do not have more liberty than those in Catholicdominated Spain, Portugal or Colombia? A democracy is very vulnerable to infiltration," he added. Fellow churchmen at the council meeting expressed their disapproval by warmly applauding Mayor Gordon Stronach, who in his civic welcome declared the MacLeod charges wcre "un-Christian." The Montreal Star, daily English-language newspaper which is one of the largest in Canada, said: "The sooner they (MacLeod's remarks) are wiped out and forgotten the better for all of WI. It is some satisfaction that the remarks were part of Dr. MacLeod's valedictory, and not a statement of any intention to wage a eampaign for his illadvised eause. He is the outgoing, not the incoming, moder_ ator 01 his church."

First Mass Celebrated lor 70 Catholics In Historic Provincetmf7n 110 Years Ago By MarioD Unswort.h Provincetown is one of'the most unique areas in the entire country. Situated ~t the very tip of Cape Cod, it is eomposedJ of fishermen, artists, tourists, beatniks, proprietors of' smaH shops of every description, ~d hundreds of others who enjoy: the quiet of the Wmter months and, during tll1e Summer, the dunes and beaches which extend on both sides of the tip. While parish duties are difficult at best, the clergy at Provincetown have this additional complexity to contend with within one single parish, St. Peter the Apostle. Although there is loilcal reason to believe ,that the first Mass' celebrated'in Provincetown was at the very beginning of its history when Lief Ericsson landed on its shores in the eleventh century, recorded acCounts place the first Mass in 1852. In that year Rev. Joseph Finotti, who was stationed in Boston, arrived in August to conduct a mission and celerated Mass for the 70 Catholic residents either at the home of Thomas Welsh or that of Dennis Cahill, both of Franklin Street. . Until the years follo)¥ing 1860 when the Portuguese came to Provincetown in large numbers to engage in the large fishing industry, the majority of the population were Irish. Father Finotti continued to visit the town until 1860, purchasing meanwhile property known as Snow's Block, now 119' Bradford St., and using the downstairs as a residence and the upstairs for church and Sunday School. Dedication in 18'74 By 1864 Provin1:etown Catholics came under the jurisdiction of the Sandwich parish, the first tl!stablished on Cape Cod, and in 1868 under that of' Harwich, where Rev. Cornelius O'Connor was then pastor. ' IH the following year land was purchased for a chureh but for unknown reasons the site was not used and in 1870 Father O'Connor leased a building known as Adams HaH at. Central and CO!'lmercial Streets which was large enough to accomrno-' date the 500 Catholics. For a brief time Masonic Hall also was used while the building of 81. Peter the Apostle Church was being completed, and on Oct. 11, 1874 the new Church was dedicated by Bishop Thomas Hendricken of Providence Diocese to which Provincetown belonged. Early Pastors With only three parishes on Cape Cod, Provincetown now had two missions under it, in Truro where Mass was celebrated at the home of Mrs; Theresa Brown, and in Wellfleet where three d,ifferent, homes were used. ' During this time Rev. John J. Maguire had served the congJ.'egation, and in 1878 Rev. JamEls A. Ward succeeded him for a , year. When Father Ward became in. Rev. Francis Tuite was named pastor at Provincetown. When Rev. Thomas P. Elliott was appointed pastor in 1874, the Vine Street building which had been used as a residem;e for priests since it had become too small for a church was sold and a new rectory built adjacent to the church where there had once been a Congregational meeting house. In 1887 a church bell was installed. Father Terra Father Elliott was transferred in September, 1889 and Rev. Bernard McCahill came to Provincetown for four years, during which time he enlarged the church by a substantial addition to the rear of the edifice. The longest pastorate in the history of St. Peter the Apostle Parish was that of Rev. Manuel C. Terra, who remained there
spent their holidays this Summer doing missionary work in Britain. They are members of the Legion of Mary, who bring counsel unobtrusively to lapsed and negligent Catholics and' also to non-Catholics. The work began with a dozen students taking their holidays in Britain in 1958. The next year the number grew to 100, then to 700, and last year to 1,000. Requests for the v 01 u n tee r s reached almost 3,000 t~is year. Legion members work closely , with the Catholic Enquiry Center here, and after they make contacts with interested persons they refer them to the center. A program of contacts is arranged .for each volunteer before he or she leaves Ireland.

Ward had time-has time-for every one of God's children, His sin, cerity is so striking and consis!tent that it puts to' flight anything that smacks of cynicism or coldness or indifference. And this ,has continued through 50 years, as an assistant, member ~f the Diocesan Curia, pastor of souls. ~ In addition, Msgr. Ward, is known to parishioners of St. Joseph's, Tau n ton, and St., Mary's Cathedral as well as' to ' his present flock at St.Patrick's as the "clean up, paint up, fix up" priest.

Both upper and lower churches were redecorated and St. John's Day Nursery, l~cated .-in the parish, wlls also thoroughly renovated. Msgr. 'Ward opened a cafeteria in the parochial school and in:' augurated ,the first Federal hot' lunch program in the DiocE;se. As a youth, Msgr. Ward was altar boy to the late Bishop Feehan, then' pastor of St. Bernard's parish, Fitchburg. When . the Bishop was 'named to head 'the Fall River see; and young: Edmund Ward realized that his vocation lay in the priesthood, his devotion to the Bishop led him to' study for his Diocese:' In this he was joined by two friends, also altar boys at St. Bernard's. " They were Rev, Charles E., Donovan 'and Rev. James M. Quinn, both "now, deceased. , Msgr. Ward:s close associa"tlon with Bishop Feehan continued after his ordination in ,~ 1913 and led. in 1920' to his appoiqtmentas, Chancellor of the Diocese. He also served as epis-, 'copal secretary.

"He, was kind and 'gracious" recalls a 'friend of those eariy days, ."but right, was right-'-and he was fearless in maintaining '. it." Testimony of the esteem in which Msgr.

In the Pope's words, "If we consult the books of the Old and New Testaments, we shall notice that every occasion of a more solemn encounter between God and humanity-to express Ourselves in human terms-has always been preceded by a more persuasive reminder to pray and to do penance. '

Yankees open 1962 Series Ag~inst Dodgers on Coast
THE ANCHORThurs., Sept. 27, 1962
World'!) largest Mosa ic Project In St. louis
By Jaek Kineavy Baseball's great post season extravaganza, the 1962· World Series, is scheduled to get underway next Wednesday, October :I at the home of the National League cham:pion. At this Writing, neither circuit has crowned a titlist so, from this point on, we'll Another old pro· who has been just have to proceed on the basis of reasonable assump- i'llther. dormant this season but who may be relied upon and tion. A three game lead then some in the clutch is the
going into this week's final two series should prove sufficient cushion for the Los Angeles Dodgero to annex their second f I a g sin c e moving out to the West Coast. Chavez Ravine, then, will be the site of games one and two; Friday will be an open date for travel and the clubs will need it for they'll be spanning the continent en route to Yankee Stadium for games three, four and five. If further play is necessary to de. termine a winner in the bestof-seven series, competition will be resumed on the coast on WedI!lesday and ThursdaY, Oct. 10 and 11. For the Yankees thiB will be their 13th appearance in World Series play since 1947. Only Cleveland and Chicago interrupted the New York dynasty. The Indians represented· the junior circuit in 1948 and again in 1954; the White Sox were 1959 '. A.L. champions and eventual losem to the Dodgers In. a six game series. This is a truly remarkable record the Yankees have put together in the last 16 years. On no fewer than 10 occasions during this period has New York emerged World champions, running up a mark of six straight titles from 1949-1954. As A.L. representative the ·past two years, the Yanks are batting .500. They lost to Pittstiurgh in 1960 when the Series went a full seven games, then rebounded against Cincinnati in five games last year to regain the title. It's a good bet that both managers will lead with their mound aces in Wednesday's opener. Manager Walt Alston has a 25game winner in fast-balling Don Drysdale, while Major Houk will likely go with Whitey Ford. The crafty portsider is known in the trade as a money pitcher and his Series' records bear this out. He owns the greatest number of ·Series victories, nine, has a life-time Series' ERA of less than 2.00 and is the holder of the longest string of consecutive shutout innings, 32. The latter mark is still current and anything Whitey does by way of holding the Dodgers away from the plate will further extend the skein·. The· old shutout mark, 28 2/3 innings was set by the late Babe Ruth when he was hurling for the Red Sox.
incomparable Yogi Berra. Berra holds a number of Series records also, among them most· games played and most hits. His ·pinchhomer against the Dodgers in '47 was the first such blow in World Series competition. The pairing of these two great baseball organizations in the annual Fall Classic is nothing unique. Since 1941 they've cll,lshed seven Urnes, New York winning all but the '55 Series. These were the years, of course, when the Dodgers represented the borough of Brooklyn and the fare from Ebbets Field to the Stadium was a dime. Only. Duke Snider of the old Bums contingent is still on the Dodger roster but the N.L. champions will show of!. a host of young .ballplayers most famous of whom is speedy Maury Wills who just shattered Ty Cobb's· base stealing record. Wills 'pi,lfered his 97th base in the Cardinal game last Sunday surpassing Cobb's 96, a mark 'which many fe~t .wQuld never be broken. And so the· stage is set for baseball's thrilling climax between clubs representing both coasts.. .The time differential should provide East Coast view_ ers an opportunity to glimpse at least part of the first two games after the regular workday. We can't help but feel, however, that the Series would have much greater impact if it were staged In mid-September before football is launched ·in earnest. The 162 game season is too much. Valid Prediction A couple of weeks ago, Coach Jim Miller predicted that his 1962 Boston College· team "would be an exciting team to watch." The Eagles performance against strong Detroit with ita All-AmeriCan quarterback candidate Jerry Gross was Indeed encouraging to B.C. football adherents. In the starting lineup for B.C. was ex-Coyle star; Dave Yelle, now a senior at· the Chest_ nut Hill Institution. . Last ·Sunday an overflow crowd was on hand to view the Coyle-Stang contest· at Dartmouth Memorial Stadium when the veteran Spartan e:k!ven proved too much for a deadly game and willing Warrior squad. The 26-0 victory marked -the debut of coach Carlin Lynch's club in Bristol County competition and stamped the Spartans as a definite title contender for BeL honors.

Deny Catholic High Teams Use Of .D. C•. Schools' Stadiums WASHINIGTON (NC) - It looks as if Catholic high schools in the national capital won't be playing "sectarian" football after all. The District of .Columbia Board of Education huddled and bucked against signal calling oJl the city's top legal officer, Corporation Counsel Chester EI. Gray. Facing a request from Joseph M. Gallagher that Catholic League football teams be allowed to use public high school stadiums for games, Gray ruled such use would violate a 1949 education board rule which states school facilities "shall not be used for sectarianpurposas." In the board huddle Wesley S. Williams, president, was all for amending the 1949 rule GO it would. not ·exclude athletic events conducted by parochial schools. But the board decided not to amend at this time and agreed the rule could be waived in Individual cases~ "I don't think what's being. lN1l-.. quested here is sectarian," said membel- Irving B..·· Yoch~lsoD, summing up the sentiment· of n majority of the board: An end= around play was called by mem_her West A. Hamilton. He urged
a conference with Gallagher for mapping a possible schedule . for use of public· high school s"tadiums by the Catholic teams. . Hamilton added: "After all, it's up· to the board to decide whether a purpose is sectarian." Delays Opinion Gallagher, coach at St. John's College High School, acting for the six-school Metropolitan Washington Catholic .League, made the request for use of the public school stadiums nearly a year ago. He pointed out that with the closing of Griffith Stadium here and the prohibitive high rental asked for the new D. C. Stadium, .the Catholic League was forced to Schedule a number of its games in public high school stadiums· in suburban Maryland and· Virginia where there is no'~rule against· "sectarian" football .'

which will give the structure the largest collection of mosaics in the world. ''The National Shrine oil the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D. C.i' will be a close sec-' ond when it is completed," said Arno Heuduck who heads the group of mosaic artists working at both cathedrals. "But the St. Louis Cathedral will be larger, Tbe new arch should put it well past St. Mark's in Venice." The arch is one of foul' that support the cathedral dome. Three of the four arches previously have been covered with mosaics. John de Rosen, 71-year old Polish-born artist who fashioned the mosaic figure of Christ at the shrine in Washington, has_ been commissioned by Joseph Cardinal Ritter to complete the mOsaic work here. He will. be the ninth in a series of artists who have been almost continuously at work for the last '50 years on mosaics for the St. . Louis edifice. His 80-foot long depictioo of . the Last Judgment shows souls . ascending and descending at'the ·final judgment. . Mosaic craftsmen will have the mosaic designs completed by Easter, according to Heuduck. Then scaffolding will go upend within four months time the big ,arch should be covered witll1 mosaic. Work will be done next on the huge dome, with its 14,000 square foot spherical surface. De Rosen has chosen "The Trinity" as the subject.
