Independent Survey Justifies Dioce..~lln Education

'Catholic Schools Have Definite Edge' Outsiders Also Note Improvement and Confidence

By Patricia Francis

The diocesan school system got a 'report card' the kind it didn't mind in the least taking to Bishop Connolly for signature.

According to Louis Harris and Associates, Inc., which recently completed a survey of Catholics and non-Catholics living within the geographical boundaries of the diocese, both groups give the parochial school system an edge over the public school systems.

"While the rating of public and Catholic schools in the Diocese of Fall River is high, Catholic schools have a definite edge," the firm researchers reported. "Three in 10 (30 per cent) give the public schools an 'excellent' rating while 35 per cent give the Catholic schools an 'excellent' rating.

"A positive rating ('excellent plus pretty good') is given to the public schools by seven in ten (70 per cent) and to the Catholic schools by nine in ten (88 per cent)."

This finding was just one of a number of varied reactions obtained in interviews with adults who were asked about the Catholic school system. The survey in the diocese was commissioned by the New. England Catholic Education Center, whose research director is Dr. George Madaus.

Harris Associates also is preparing a complete appraisal of

Catholic education in the Archdiocese of Boston.

The Harris survey, although designed specifically to measure public attitudes about the parochial school system, also touched on a number of other changing ideas in the Church.

Two out of three of those surveyed felt the current changes are for the better.

"Support for the change arises out of the feeling the Church is getting closer to the people and is becoming more relevant to 'their needs, that the Mass is more meaningful and easier -to understand, that rules are less strict and that people now have more opportunity to be involved and to think about their religion and are less obligated to blindly . follow the dictates of the Church," the report says.

The report cites the following "more visible issues (that) clearly indicate that further changes in Church practices would be welcomed: Among Catholics, 65 per cent

Junior and senior high school students, whether from diocesan, parochial, private or public high schools, who are interested in further college study for competitive-world success, will do themselves, their parents and communities a great favor by attending the well-planned event.

Rev. Edmund Haughey, C.S.C., Dean of Admissions at Stonehill College, announced that representatives of 98 Catholic colleges from the Mid-west to the Atlantic seaboard will be present at the No. Easton campus to meet with and answer the questions of students and parents.

College Day has proved to be an immense success in the past.

agree "strongly" that "priests should be permitted to marry and still remain priests." An additional 19 per cent agree "somewhat."

Among Catholics, only 13 per cent agree "strongly" that "the movement toward ProtestantCatholic church unity is dangerous because it tends to deny that the Catholic Church is the one true Church founded by Christ." An additional nine per cent agreed "somewhat."

Despite the fact that 30 per cent of those surveyed feel they are "less religious" than their parents, 45 per cent felt that religion was important in their lives and an additional .36 per cent felt religion was central"the most important thing" in their lives. Age seemed a key here, with two-thirds of those Catholics 55 or older saying religion was "most important" while only one-third of those under 35 felt the same way.

In addition, 85 per cent feel it is better for childten to attend formal religious education programs rather thal'l .having parents attempt to provide religious education by themselves.

However, the way this should be done disclosed a sharp difference in attitudes between Catholcs and non-Catholics.

When individuals were asked to select two or three from a list of educational and non-educational programs which should receive the most support from their church, CeD-type programs topped full路time schools among the total group.

The difference showed up here.

Among non-Catholics, 33 per cent chose CCD-type programs and only three per cent chose elementary schools and high schools.

Among Catholics, however, 35 per cent chose elementary schools as opposed to 28 per cent for CCD programs and only five per cent for high schools.

First Poll Reports Favor Holy Days Transferal of CHOR subscribers have signified

With over 1000 ballots received at the Chancery Office in Fall River; the laity of the Diocese have opted 2-1 for the transferal of Holy

Days to nearest Sunday when they happen to fall on weekdays.

Though the large number of votes has been encouraging as a sign of active and interested lay participation' in diocsean life, it still represents only a small fraction of the more than 290,000 lay members of the Diocese.

The laity has been consulted by the Most Reverend Bishop as to possible changes in the celebration of the Holy Days.

These feasts could possibly be celebrated as they have been until now; they could be dropped altogether; or, they could be transfered to the nearest Sunday. Four per cent of THE AN-

"transferal" as their choice.

It has been pointed out that the ballot, printed in the Sept.

18th issue of THE ANCHOR, will still be accepted by the Chancery Office.'

At their November meeting, the Bishops of the United States will vote and decide on the matter of a possible nationwide change in regard to Holy Days.

Since the matter directly involves workday problems of the laity, however, many Bishops have consulted the laity first.

Investiture His Excellency, the Most Reverend Bishop, will ilnvest with symbols of their new honors, the newly named Reverend Monsignors and J{nights of St. Gregory at a ceremony to be held at the Cathedral, Wednesday evening, Oct. 22, at 8 o'clock.

Chicagoans Like Hierarchial Idea Of Consultation

Polish Cardinal Expects Synod in Rome To Produce Workable Collegiality

CHICAGO (NC)-Greater Chicago Catholics have indicated, in an informal survey, that they consider the fact

WASHINGTON (NC)-Karol Cardinal Wojtyla of Krakow hopes the coming Synod of Bishops in Rome will produce a "not perhaps definitive, but a workable" solution "for the realization of collegiality according to the doctrine of Vatican II." The 49-year-old Polish cardinal, who has been invited J:>y Pope Paul to participate in the synod hopes it "will concern collegiality," , the relationship between the Pope and the bishops of the world. The designated sub-

that they have been asked to participate in a poll just as important as the questions they were invited to answer.

The poll of the archdiocesan newspaper, The New World, was conducted to ascertain the feeling of the laity relative to an extension of the Sunday Mass obligation to Saturday evening as well as the changing of regulations pertaining to holy days of obligation.

'Change for Better' The results of the poll will be forwarded to the National Conference of Catholic Bishops.

Kiernan Hayes, a systems analyst, reflected the views of most people who were polled by The New World. He said: "It's really strange and rather unusual. This is the first time I can remember the Bishops asking the people for opinions on anything like this. It's a good idea and a change for the better."

Hayes feels the consultation approach "is probably just as important as the issues we're being asked to vote on."

On the question of extending the Sunday Mass obligation to Saturday evening, the majority of the interviewed were in favor. The primary reason is "convenience."

On the issue of changes in holy day regulations, most feel that a change to Sunday would be preferable, again mainly because of convenience, but there was also strong feeling expressed against. removing' the compulsory obligation to attend holy day Mass.

Many said the significance of the feast days could easily be diminished if attendance was not mandatory. Significant voluntary attendance on the holy days was not forseen.

The most caustic comment came from John Kuenster, writer and publicist from Ever路 green Park, and president of the Holy Redeemer parish council.

"I consider this irksome and nitpicking when there .are far more important matters to which members of the liierarchy should address themselves," he stated.

"I would place, this in the same category of whether a groom should be allowed to kiss the bride in the back of the church. To me it's just another instance in which it .seems church leaders have become so tied up with ritualism that they lose sight of the fact that religion is not so much a matter of whether we go to church on Sunday or Saturday or everyday, but how we act when we're outside of church."

Plan Installation Of Kansas Ordinary KANSAS CITY (NC~ The installation of Archbishop Ignatius J. Strecker as head of the Kansas City archdiocese in Kansas has been set for Tuesday, Oct. 28 in St. Peter's cathedral.

Bishop Strecker will come to the Kansas See after more than seven years. as bishop of the Springfield-Cape Girardeau, Mo. He will succeed retired Archbishop Edward J. Hunkeler here.

Establish Center For Vocations CHICAGO (NC~Father John John J. O'Neill, M.S., vocations director of the LaSalette Fathers since 1966, has been named executive director of the National Center for Church Vocations in Chicago.

The center, jointly funded and controlled by the National Conference of Catholic Bishops and the Conferences of Major Superiors of Men and Women, was established to coordinate Church vocations work and research in the United States.

It was authorized by the bishops at their April meeting in Houst'on. The' Conference of Major Superiors of Men ap~ proved the center in June, and the Conference of Major Superiors of Women in September.

The announcement of the center's establishment and Father O'Neill's appointment was made here by Father Thomas Coyle, executive secretary of the Bishops' Committee on Priestly Formation.

jects of the synod are relations between the Holy See and the world's bishops' conferences and among the conferences themselves.

Collegiality, said the second youngest member of the College of Cardinals, is "new in the life and structure of the Church, though it is old in that the idea is in the Gospels, the sources."

Polish American Centers The high degree of organization is the most impressive factor of the Church in America, the visiting Polish Cardinal observed.

TAIPEI (NC) - Archbishop Stanislaus Lokuang of Taipei has appealed to priests, Religious and lay Catholics not to be discouraged by the decrease in conversions, but to renew efforts to bring the faith to those outside the Church.

His appeal was mac;le in a pastoral letter read in alI churches of the archdiocese.

"No progression is regression," the pastoral stated. "If we are unable to bring more people into the Church, our missionary work may be considered stagnant. Whenever there is a great decline in the number of people who seek Baptism, priests may easily become disheartened. When this occurs, our Catholic .laity will, in turn, more easily become not only less pious, but also less zealous."

Taiwan, which witnessed an unusual growth of the Catholic community in the 1950s, has seen conversions decline in recent years. Catholics increased from less than 10,000 to more than 300,000 in the past 20 years.

The peak in conversions was reached in 1956-1957, when over 25,000 adults were baptized.

Since then, however, conversions have been decreasing steadily, and during the last 12month period there were less than 5,000 adult Baptisms.

School Problems Spur Efforts To Improve CALGARY (NC) The outgoing president of the Catholic School Trustees of Canada said complex problems facing Catholic schools should be welcomed as a stimulus towards greater efforts to prove Catholic education.

"Problems are, as often as not; signs of progress, breaking through outdated handicaps," Dr. N. A. Mancini of Hamilton, Ont., stated.

Addressing the national convention of Catholic trustees here, Dr. Mancini cited a recent situation in Ontario as an example of how a "problem" had stimulated discussions and inimprove Catholic education.

The "problem" was the concept of continuous educationfrom kindergarten through grade 13. In Ontario the separate school system receives government assistance only up to grade 10.

The remaining three years of higli school must be taken either in the public sector or private Catholic high schools.

Re-examine Program Up to now, Dr. Mancini said, "we were content to amble along, consolidating our gains, leaving the high school problems up to dioceses, communities, parishes and private schools."

However, "the challenge of continuous education has obliged us to re-examine our entire school program, to involve our people, to organize movements for change."

The Ontario Separate School Trustees' Association, headed by Dr. Mancini, recently presented a brief to the provincial government asking for extension of the separate school system to the end of high school.

Ground for Optimism "Without the problem, we might have stayed put," Dr. Mancini said. "Without the problem we would not have had the great concentration of lay power and responsibility which has taken place and for which we are accountable ., l$I ., problems have rejuvenated our principles."

Dr. Mancini observed that other provinces have problems too - from the British Columbia's government's hard-line policy favoring public schools only to the St. Leonard situation in suburban Montreal in Frenchspeaking Quebec where the League for School Integration is just as much against separa,te schools as it is against Englishlanguage schools.

"Even in the review of problems there is ground for optimism," Dr. -Mancini said. "SolUtions in one place have been found for situations which cause concern elsewhere."

New Catholic University President Faces Fltture With Confidence WASHINGTON (NC)-The former Columbia University administrator who became the first layman' president of the Catholic University of America here expressed sympathy and understanding for a group of theology students who staged a 24-hour class boycott, in support of a popular professor. He declined, however, to endorse their point "of view. Dr. Clarence C. .

Dr. Walton said the following Walton emphatically denied are among the first steps the the contention of some stuuniversity must take to put its dents and faculty members "affairs in order":

that academic freedom is the key issue in the case of Father Roland Murphy, O.Carm., whom the pontifical university's board of trustees have thus far failed to appoint as dean of the theology school despite recommendation of his faculty colleagues and the wishes of some members of the student body. ~.

The issue, accordin~ to Dr. h Walton, is getting the best pos- ; "". sible administrator for the post, whether from within or outside the university. . "Father Murphy's right to teach and write and publish are intact and inviolate," he said.

In an interview in his office here, Dr. Walton seemed supremely assured that the nation's pontifical university .will sail through its latest "academic freedom" struggle, overcome its "serious short-term" financial crisis and make "valuable and lasting" contributions to solving the nation's ills.

The interview occurred the day after the theology boycott and some two weeks after. Dr. Walton, 54, was officially installed as the first layman to direct the affairs of the nation's 82-year- . old pontifical university. All previous Catholic University heads DR. WALTON have been priests and bishops.

Dr. Walton has also suggested that colleges and universities in the Washington area establish a data bank of information on college prospects from low-income families to help get more black students into higher education.

Enrollment Patterns "Examine our priorities so that we know where we want to be at a specific target date." Dr. Walton said the university has hired a professional planner to help in this endeavor.

"Initiate plans soon for a very substantial development program."

"Finally, we must determine the appropriate ratio between graduate and undergraduate students, and project enrollment patterns for our various professional schools," Dr. Walton said.

"We must identify where endowed chairs are needed and reassess programs that were once viable but may not be needed today."

Dr. Walton noted that undergraduate enrollment is up this year at the university, which has. sometimes been called primarily a graduate school, and said this I may indicate future trends.

He said the university must learn the answers to such questioqs as why some of its schools. hav.e not' graduated the expected number of Ph.D.s in recent years, . and why some excellent .programs have failed to attract students.

Canadian Eparchies Hold Conference WINNIPEG (NC)-Metropolitan Archbishop Maxim Hermaniuk of Winnipeg and other bishops of the Ukrainian-rite presided over a conference for the four Canadian eparchies prior to the Synod of Bishops in Rome next month.

The conference was de-' scribed as an opportunity for laity and clergy to express their views on matters concerning the Ukrainian rite to the bishops. In attendance were representatives of the Ukrainian Catholic Brotherhood, the Ukrainian Catholic Women's League and the Ukrainian Catholic Youth.

Search Catholic Paper's Office KAMPALA (NC) - Following the arrest of Ben Kiwanuka, leader of the opposition Democratic party and a Catholic, the police searched the offices of Munno, a Catholic daily, for an issue containing what they called an illegal artiCle. Kiwanuka has been released on bail and the court has not yet announced the date for a hearing on the nine political charges against him.

The police were looking for an issue containing Democratic party documents which they said appeared in March of this year.

After a police spy first tried unsuccessfully to buy a copy of the issue, two plainclothesmen came with a warrant and searched the offices. They did not find the issue.

It was the first time in its 70year history that the paper, founded by the White Fathers, had its offices searched by the police.

It was reported here that a number of members of the Uganda People's Congress <UPC), the ruling party, have left their party and joined the opposition Democrats to protest against the arrest of Kiwanuka.

Some, according to reports, were officers of the UPC. Those who left the UPC said that they did so because the party is acting on -prejudice and that they believe it is necessary to join the Democrats in order to achieve national unity.

Public Fast LONI?ON. (~C);:- Seminarians . of Westmihster archdiocese are organizing a 40-hour public fast in Trafalgar Square to climax a campaign against world poverty, "Focus on Famine."

M,oti'o·n Pictures Get P~oorer As Ads B!ecome Racier

One of my most pleasurable forms of entertainm~nt for years has been to escape to a movie for a few hours.

When I was in college and the work seemed overbearing, I would either go to a ball game or a movie.

NEW BRUNSWICK (NC) Some 90 New Jersey clergymen of all faiths formed a permanent committtee here' to work on the problem of drug abuse in the state.

The group will work in cooperation with state and other • agencies dealing with the problem.

An ad hoc committee, which had organized the Interfaith Conference for ,Clergymen on Drug Abuse, met at Rutgers University and was named the permanent committee. It was given a mandate to expand and broaden its own base for operation on a state-wide and regional basis.

Richard J. Russo, director of the New Jersey Bureau of Narcotic Addiction, outlined the problems and resources available in the state. He gave the clergymen / some g~im statistics.

Although half the drug addicts in America are in New York, Russo said, California, Illinois, and New Jersey are close behind. He said a rough estimate of narcotics addicts in New Jersey would be about 30,000.

Stress Parents' Rights In Sex Education BALTIMORE (NC)-The Catholic bishops of Maryland have issued a statement which emphasizes that parents have the primary responsibility in sex education.

The statement also said that public schools should "involve parents of the child in the preparation and execution" of sex education programs.

Parents also have the right, the statement said, "to remove their children from these classes" if the classes ~'violate their moral and religious convictions" and if all other methods of protest fail.

The statement was issued jointly by Lawrence Cardinal Shehan of Baltimore, Patrick Cardinal O'Boyle of Washington lind Bishop Thomas Mbrdaga of Wilmington, who comprise the jVlaryland Catholic Conference. parts of Maryland are in each of the three dioceses.

The latter effect is achieved by cutting the hair in a blunt cut all around, shaping it so that it's a little shorter at the neckline and while combing it out using a blower type hand hair dryer and a brush to achieve the carefree look.

Lipstick Comeback I just had my hair cut in this manner and I think I'm going to like it very much. Of, course, if I do want to have a dressier look I can still pull it back, have . my hair-dresser pin my wiglet to the back as a low chignon and thereby achieve a formal hairdo.

Even lipstick is' coming back for the '69 season. No more do we see the paled down shades that made one look as if the embalmer was just around the corner. This season we will find that color has returned to lips as well as fingernails.

All in all, it's a time in history when a girl can look like a girl.

Sexy, outdoorsy, intellectualchoose your look and you can create it. The only thing holding you back is that old bug-a-boo money and perhaps a little bit of. time to try all these new things that are coming along to help us ward off the aging process as gracefully as possible.

Stresses ~o'~ Of Supe'riors

By Marilyn Roderick

less or plunk a Garbo slouch on our head-yes, we can do all of these things and still emerge fairly fashionable, thanks to that new "in" attitude - individuality. One of the women who has jumped on the individual rna keu p bandwagon is Zsa Zsa Gabor, who has just introduced a new line of cosmetics dedicated to the proposition that while you don't mind being you-we all can stand a bit 'of improving on nature.

Her line is supposed to be quite good from skin treatments through perfume, but so far in this area it has been difficult to get. While in Boston last week I did drop into the store carrying these products in the New England area and after a half-hour wait for the salesgirl (while Jason was giving Joe a run for his money around the Prudential steps and plazas and my nerves were getting frayed just standing there) I was told that they were out of the main items in the line.

Softness Effective Eyes are still as effective as ever, only they don't have that harsh made-up look. Even if you have been able to master the technique of applying false eyelashes, YQu'1I find that softness here is also the most effective look and that the manufacturers are coming up with more natural looking lashes.

Although they have traditionally cut each other's hair, one nun admitted that past results were sometimes unfortunate.

Challenge' to C,hurch

Priest in Front Lines Against Secularizatioll1 Of Religion

Lom (NC)-Religious superiors must be "transparencies of God," a priest told a group of religious superiors at a threeday conference here in New Jersey.

Father Francis Cegielka of Felician College here, spoke to Felician superiors who lyld gathered at the American mother-house to study the results of experimentation authorized last year as part of the community's renewal.

Father Cegielka said that the two great crises in religious life today are a decline of faith and a lack of family spirit.

Superiors, he said, must be.come "transparencies of God" to strengthen the personal relationships with God which have been damaged by the decline in faith.

In contributing to the forrnation of the Mystical Body of Christ in our generation, Fr. Ce'gielka said, superiors must remember that their main responsibility is the spiritual good of their subjects.

He warned the superiors against isolation, however, saying that "where there is isolation there is no community, no family" and this lack of family spirit is part of the crisis faced by religious communities.

However, he added, a charism has been vested in superior!' by God. For this reason, he said, they must remember that "members of a community may advise, but the final decision lies in this authority, which is the pillar of each community."

Center Is International Link For Social Action Organizations

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River- Thurs~, Oct. 2, 1969

Sees Violation of Religious Freedom in Oak Park Case

By Msgr. George G. Higgins Director, Division of Urban Life, u.sue.c.

NEW YORK (NC)-The first center of its kind in the United States now operates here as a contact point for American, international social action groups.

Spearheaded by George R. Donahue, long-time adviser to European and Latin A!J1erican social movements, the center is a liaison and documentation point for soc.ial action. groups within the natIOn and WIth these in other countries.

It is known' as the International Liaison and Documentation Center and was launched last November with a series of grants made available bysevera\ European and American foundations.. ..

The Idea f?r t~e cen~er emerged from dISCUSSIons begmning in 1966 among Donahue, Bishop. Edw~rd E. Swanstro~, exe~utlve d.lrec.tor of Catho~lc Rel~ef Servlce~, James NOrrIS: assIstant to BIshop _Swans~r?m, and Msgr. Joseph ~.remJ1hon, se~r~tary to the.

Face Massive Problems He noted that in Latin America, Christian social movements "pres'ent' important and activ~ options for dealing with the massive problem,S which face all the nations of the continent."

"It is' vitally important," he said "for 'the people and policymakers of the United States and other countries to understand the impact that these movements are making in Europe,' Latin America and elsewhere."

Christian social movements vary. from country to. country but 'are generally' inspired' by' papal social encyclicals. Their scopes ranges from politics to trade unions.

"The Christian social .movements present a formulation of basic needs and priorities and have wide implications for future relations between the Unit~d States, the AtIa!1tic co~­ mum~y and the e'!1er,~mg Latm . Amencan commumty, Donahue stated.

Get Limited Attention "Unfortunately, significant phenomena such as Christian socia:! movements have received sporadic and limited attention in the United States. No concerted attention has been given them.

"The creation of the International Liaison and Documenta. tion Center is an urgent reo sponse to an obvious imperative need, especially with regard to Latin America," he said.

"Grants have been made to the center by the Raskob Foundation of Delaware, the Foundation for International Solidarity of Belgium and the Auxillium Foundation of Rome, and a loan has come from Misereor,' the German bishops overseas develt f d ,opmen un.

"The center seeks to arouse on the American scene primarily a deeper insight, perspective and awareness of Christian social movements around the world" Donahue explained. ' '

Annual Clothing Drive Gains in Importance NEW YORK-"Operation Clothes Closet" has come of age. "That's the nickname which was given to the annual campaign conducted among U.S. Catholics for donations of used and usable clothing, bedding, shoes, and other garments for distribution among "The rolls of the homeless the needy overseas. The the destitute continue to campaign is 'now 21 years and increase as so many of the innoold. John Cardinal Dearden cent are displaced from their of Detroit, chairman of the administrative board of the United States Catholic Conference, in a letter to members of the American hierarchy said the 21st annual campaign will be conducted in November in more than 18,000 parishes throughout the nation.

Each diocese will fix its own time in November for the collection. The donations will be sent to the warehouses of Catholic Relief Services, overseas relief agency of U. S. Catholics, for distribution to the needy overseas.

Average During the last three years the annual Thanksgiving Clothing Collection has averaged more than 20 million pounds of used clothing, shoes, bedding and materials.

In his letter to the American bishops announcing the campaign, Cardinal Dearden said that since the first collection was conducted in 1949, the annua'J campaign has "provided millions of pounds of clothing, shoes, bedding and other material~ for the less fortunate people in other parts of the globe."

To these we must add the thousands of the poor who continue to eke out a bare existence in the less developed areas of the world. Their plight stresses the importance that our clothing campaign takes on each year," the cardinal wrote.

"With the food and medicine that. we are also able to supply, there is no doubt that we are lessening to a great degree the burden of need experienced by so many of the impoverished overseas," he said.

Deplores Heresy Of Scientism NEW DELHll (NC) - Valerian Cardinal Gracias of Bombay warned against the new "heresy of scientism" in a talk broadcast over the All-India Radio network.

The cardinal said in the talk entitled "Scientific Thought and the Evolution of Faith," that it was a "puerile' gesture" for the space traveler to say that he found "no God up there" or for a doctor to say that when he cut up a human body he found no soul.

Pointing out that science is "autonomous" only in answering scientific questions, Cardinal Gracias declared that it was an easy step to assume that the autonomy of science means its supremacy, and that, therefore, science answers all the questions including religious and moral ones.

"This," he added, "is the popular heresy of scientism."

Declaring that progress in human knowledge must contribute to a growth in faith, the cardinal said "this then is the great role science has."

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Thurs., Oct. 2, 1969 ,

Catholic Schools Have Edge' Contfnued from Page One per cent of the Catholics chose special education programs for the blind, deaf and mentally retarded.

Next in order were religious education, with 46 per cent, elementary schools, 34 per cent, and special religious education programs in ghetto areas, 34 per cent.

From the above results, the report deduces, "It is clear that Catholic education for younger children has a higher priority with the laity than Catholic education for teen-agers."

Are Catholic and public schools likely to improve or get worse in the coming decade?

"Among Catholics, the feeling that the two systems have improved increases with education ":""from about 40 per cent among those with an 8th Grade education to 61 per cent among the college educated. A higher proportion of college educated non- .

Catholics feel the Catholic . schools have1mproved than feel the public schools have improved," the report says.

Future of Education Among Catholics, confidence in the future of the public schools tends to rise with education, from 56 per cent of those with an 8th Grade education who expected the public schools to get better to 70 per cent among the college educated.

"Turning to the Catholic schools, only 39 per cent expect them to get better (compared to 56 per cent for the public schools), 39 per cent expect .them to remain the same and 26 per cent expect them .to get worse (compared with 14 per cent for the public schools).

Pessimism about the future of Catholic schools increases with education among Catholics, reversing the pattern of their expectations about public schools.

Part of this, the report points out, is the change from religious to lay teachers in the school system.

:>

Lay Teachers Fifty-six per cent of those queried felt the "quality of teaching" would remain the same' if most teachers were lay persons. Only 8 per cent felt the quality of religious educa-

Open Center to Aid Young Drug Addicts

/

MIAMI (NC) - An education center de!,igned to combat drug use among the young, plus guidance and psychological help for the. parents of youthful addicts, has been inaugurated here by the Catholic Welfare Bureau of the Miami archdiocese.

The center is being directed

by Dr. Ben Sheppard, Miami at. torney, pediatrician and former Juvenile Court judge. He operated a clinic ~ponsored by the archdiocese here which em~loy~d the Methadone system of flghtJpg drug addiction..

The clinic was closed a month ago by Miami's Archbishop Coleman F. Carroll when it became apparent the facility could not operate under guidelines laid down by the federal government.

The "Crisis Center," successor to the clinic, will enlist the aid of professionals and volunteers including some former addicts: The objective is a hard line educational program, both for young addicts and their parents, to und~rscore the dangers of addiction. '

tion would improve (25 per' cent among the college educated) while 33 per cent felt it would get worse and fiO per cent felt it would stay the same. ' Twelve per cent said in' this case "Catholics would be more willing to contribute to the parish or pay tuition to help 'support the Catholic schools," while 38 per cent felt Catholics would be less willing to offer their support.

Loss of religious in the' schools also resulted in 38 per cent saying fewelr parents would want to send their children to Catholic schools" Only six I per cent said more p~trents would.

This question is particularly pertinent, since each year! the number of lay teachers .is increasing while the number of religious decreases. , With parochial schools ,currently facing a !ievere financial crisis, the question of public support for some type of go,:ernment aid to the schools is important. ' "Overall, 61 per cent of the public favors some type of government aid to religious schools," the survey disclosed.

"Thirty-one per cent oppose I any aid and eight per cent are: not sure."

Eight in 10 Caltholics (80 per cent) favor aid while only 13 per cent are opposed. '

Says Good Nei.ghbors Come In Black, Yellow, White

• First In 450 Years

By Barbara Ward In recent weeks,. in this column, we have looked at the problem posed for Christians by the existence, in the same community, of citizens of different race. For white Christians-of what can be very loosely called "Anglo Saxon" culture - the challenge, whether in Africa or Britain (or the Pakistani for· that their migrant status is in some of the cities of En- matter) still indelibly marked in skin gland or in the United States color.

lies, of course, in the confrontation between black and white citizens. 0 n e strand in the conflict is, as we have seen, the tendency in a II societies dominated by white "Anglo Saxons" to employ black citizens in menial, . ill-paid w 0 r k and relegate them to the community's worst housing arid worst schools.

They thus inevitably appear as a threat to the white groups who have just moved up to the next and higher rung of the ladder of jobs, homes and education.

A measure of racial peace is therefore only likely in societies where opportunities are wide enough to relieve the competitive fears and strains of both white and black citizens at crucial .moments of social advance.

Only One Element This need we will look at again later, in relation to American society.. But it is only one element in the problem. After all, in all modern societies, migrants have tended to start in the poorest jobs and houses. and then, after a generation or so of growing skill and confidence, have moved onwards to greater income and opportunity.

Between the cruel jest of the 1850s: "God invented the wheel· barrow to teach Paddy to walk on his hindlegs" to a Kennedy in the White House a hundred years and three or four generations of steady consolidation intervene.

Nor was the advance without friction and social strain. But the groups advancing and the groups giving ground had one thing in common. They looked the same. With the black migrant from the American South or the Jamaican migrant in

Catholic-Methodist Meeting Success VALLETTA (NC) - Catholicism and Methodism are united in spirit, according to delegates to Catholic-Methodist talks held here in Malta, and the religions are closer than was expected before the meeting.

The meeting was the third in a series that began in 1967 between representatives of the Catholic Church and the World Methodist Council.

Bishop Odd Hagen, president of the. World Methodist Council (WMC), said: "Everyone got to know one another better and the talks took place in the best ecu" menical atmosphere. It was possible to find out what others thought from every possible angle about the subjects examined and the problems confronting the churches tOday."

Archbishop John Murphy of Cardiff, Wales, one of the Cath. olic representatives, said: "The work of the Malta commission was mQre in the nature of a theological study between both parties who were able to learn each others views." ,'"

As they move, they cannot be anonymous in a white society.

The pressures take on racial as well as social overtones simply because they are, as it were, inescapably advertised in technicolor.

Black Is Beautiful . It is not, therefore, enough to try for a genuine and rapid widening of social opportunity.

White Christians also have to ask themselves what they feel, what they believe, what they teach their children about the basic fact that God likes His creation to be multi-colored. He likes variety. He did not say, during the eons of creation: "Color them white."

To base any theory of the fundamental value of man on a particular color is an insult to the inexhaustible variety. of God's human creation. He made us varied. He likes us that way.

For Him, black is beautiful. So is yellow. So is brown. So, too', in spite. of our arrogance and exploitation, is white. Unless we start from this fundamental insight of our faith, we may be a lot of valuable things. We shall not, however, be Christian.

This point, surely, is one which Pope Paui was specially seeking to underline on his recent visit to Africa. Ashe moved through the gay, respon-'" sive African multitudes' gathered in their thousands .to greet him, as he addressed the Ugandan Parliament, as he consecrated 12 African bishops and dedicated the shrine of Africa's Christian martyrs, the theme returned again and again - of Africa's own contribution to the work and culture of the world, of Africa's unique and infinitely valuable part in the diversity of human and Christian societies.

God's Variety "You will be capable of bringing to the Catholic Church the precious and original contribution of negritude (blackness) which she needs particularly in this historic hour."

These words of the Pope have to be deeply considered by all Christians confronted with racial tension and conflict. Do we, as whites or blacks, fear and hate other citizens because of different color? Are we ready, as dominant whites, while exploiting the work of colored neighbors, to deny them full human value?

Or do we welcome differences because we love God's variety and do we, with the Pope, rejoice in the distinctive contributions which each· group . brings to the diversity of peoples?

This particular virtue-of joyfully welcomig cultures and contributions different from our own is, perhaps, most difficult these days for white citizens.

The difficulty springs from three o~ four hundred years of white world domination and successful white administration, business enterprise, technology and scientific research. Against these achievements of success and order, We think well of our· selves. We even, like the Pharisee, "thank God we are not as other men."

But are these the only virtues?

And did God accept the Pharisee?

Men's Superiors N@me Secretary WASHINGTON (NC)-Father Francis ·Gokey, S.S.E., of St. Michael's College in Vermont, has been appointed permanent national secretary of the Conference of Major Superiors of Men (CMSM) of the United States.

Father Pau," Doyle, C.P., president of CMSM and provincial of the western province of the Pas.sionist Fathers, announced the appointment at the meeting of the CMSM board in Chicago.

CMSM, established in 1960, has a diversified membership of 94 religious institutes, 35,000 professed Religious, representing every type and size of religious order and congregation from every state and section .of the nation. A staff of 'secretaries and resource consultants 'serves the CMSM Washington office and its committees, undertakes research, carri.es on field work and special services.

Father Gokey served as chairman of the classics department, dean of men and trustee of St. Michael's College in Burlington, Vt. Prior to being named to the CMSM post, he was administrative assistant to the superior general of the Society of St. Edmund. He also chaired The Edmundite Commission on Studies and, more recently, its Commission on Finances.

Catholics, Moslems Share Common Goal VATICAN CITY (NC) - Pope Paul VI has told Pakistan's new envoy to the Holy See that because Catholics and Moslems share a common belief in "one merciful God" they have a common goal to seek peace in the world.

In accepting the credentials of Ambassador Afzal Iqbal the Pope cited a passage. from the Second Vatican Council's Dogmatic Constitution on the Church, which stated that among those who acknowledge the creator "there are the Moslems, who, professing to hold the faith of Abraham, along with . us adore the one and merciful God." The Pope said: "Hence, the Church strives through the ·common belief to foster concord and peace among individUlils, families, nations and races by the observance of social and international justice."

The new ambassador, in his response to the welcome of the Pope, said that "faith in almighty God is the guiding force in our life."

Mission Sunday-Money or .Mletre?

Missio.n Sunday may be for many just an' appeal day for money.

And it i~money is' desperately vital. for the missions. '.-

...

Missionaries cannot' be ti'a'ined and sent to' Africa' Asia .or Latin America on good will alone: Hungry poor people 'cannot be comforted on sweet talk; food and clothes cost money. People with di~eases need medicine, clinics, hospitals,and trained medical people.

IllIteracy can only be reduced when schools, supplies, and teachers are supplied. People finding Christ need priests, places to worship, and native seminaries and convents. Relief from poor sanitation, -poor environments, and inhuman conditions all require money, It's true! Missionary activity necessarily is involved in economics. Even more true-for many missionaries, their only source of income :s the generous support from their fellow-Christians.

Christ-in and through the Church, the missionall'ies, and the people they serve-depend on us. .

But Mission Sunday is more than just giving money, otherwise It only scratches the surface of our personal sense of Christian living.

Think for a minute ... We have been baptized, confirmed and partakers together at Christ's table ... We profess the com~union of saints, and membership in God's People - the catholic-apostolic Church. We all share in Christ's mission, not as outside benefactors or isolated humanitarians.

A frightful meditation-the spirit of Christ ns alive in us only to the degree we have His missionary sense.

It is a sense of belonging to others: those we live with and those we don't. It is a sense that responds out of love for others and doesn't count the cost. And it is the sense of our togetherness with each other in God.

Over 800 mission territories receive direct aid from the Society; many are totally dependent on this support. They n~ what only you can give. May your giving be more than just a donation to a worthy cause. For in the liturgy and in life we cel~ ebrate the mystery of our faith-ehrlst lives among us •.• HELP US TELL THE WORLD! Will you send a sacrifice. to me, today for the missions? . """"""'---,-"""""--"-~----,--""'"

Parish Assistants' Suffer From Information Vacuum

17

NEW HAVEN (NC)-Catholic priests, especially parish assistants, suffer from an information vacuum, which leads to an undermining of their confidence, a study by two Yale University behavioral scientists, Dr. Douglas' T. Hall and Dr. Benjamin Schneidar, indicates. "Priests, as a choices and in dependence on organization." ' group, seem to be concerned theHall and Schneider pointed about approval," Hall as- out that in examining parish serted, noting the study shows that priests receive very little feedback on their performances.

Authority, Hall observed, is a general issue involved in this problem. He said the nature of Church authority defines work and working conditions of subordinates, who become apathetic about their positions because they "have no responsibility."

Hall declared the priest "needs some sort of information on the performance of his duties. If he does a job well, he often does not know he has succeeded."

Hall added that this information is very important for any career.

Four Factors Necessary "A person's self-esteem tended to increase following an experience of psychological success in a task effort," the study by Hall and Schneider states. This theory establishes "a connection between a person's work experi• ence and his self-image."

The two scientists cited four factors necessary if a person is to experience psychological success: He must actively choose a challenging goal for himself; a goal requiring him to "stretch" himself to a new limit of his competence.

He must work autonomously in attempting to attain the goal so that he will see success as his own and not that of someone else.

The goal must be in an area' that is central or important to the person's self-concept.

The person must achieve the goal.

Has Little Control The study revealed "that there is little evidence of active choosing on the part of the priest, and little evidence of the system offering any opportunity to choose.

"The important events in a priest's career (the assignments he has, the promotions he receives, the place he lives) are usually not of his own choosing.

The priest has little control over his own life's development in the priesthood," the report continues.

"Seeing institutionalized events as critical in one's career is not a problem per se, but when these events completely overshadow events of one's own making, the likelihood of psychological success is extremely low," the study asserts.

Lack of Opportunities "This type of career pattern," Hall and Schneider said, "leads to a person's being, influenced much more by his environment than by himself. We would predict that for some individuals this would result in a person's inability to make independent

Members may bring guests.

priests' work experiences in the Church structure, "one is hardpressed to think of extant occupational systems of professional personnel with fewer structural opportunities for psychological success and growth.

"These are strong statements to make about the lack of career growth opportunities for the parish priest," they admitted.

Takes Toll on Confidence "There are almost an unlimited number of factors in the organization which may be employed to block the priest's career development-to reduce the opportunities of the parish priest to experience psychological success," the study said.

The study team opined that their "developmental theory would predict that this lack of choice and control over one's work and personal life takes a Heavy toll on the self-esteem and confidence of the prie~t.

"Although our data cannot conclusively prove this point," the study reports, "it was strongly suggested in the interviews and it is often mentioned in the mass media as a prime difficulty for priests who leave the priesthood and suddenly have to live by their own choices."

Says Som.e Priests Assassins of Faith PARIS (NC) - Jean Cardinal Danielou, S.J., has called some priests "assassins of the faith."

At a press conference here, the cardinal also said that the French bishops do not express themselves clearly enough on doctrinal matters.

The 64-year-old cardinal, a prominent theologian for years, said: "One of the great anxieties of Catholics in France is explained by the fact that the bishops do not express themselves clearly enough on a certain number of doctrinal points.

The bishop is before all a teacher of the faith. In the present confusion, it is the theologians who speak and certain pressure groups who act."

The theologian, he said, "is essentially a research-worke~.

There must be dialogue between the theologian and authority. It is up' to authority to verify whether the paths on which he is entering are valid. Some theologians hold positions that should be rectified by the magisterium (the Church's teaching authority). "

Marquette Medals For Astronauts MILWAUKEE (NC) - Marquette University here will' present Pere Marquette Discovery Medals to Astronauts Neil A. Armstrong, Edwin E. Aldrin, Jr., and Michael Collins, the threeman crew of Apollo 11.

The Discovery Medal, named for Father Jacques Marquette, S.J., famed explorer, is being initiated in connection' with the 300th anniversary of the Jesuit's explorations in America. The award will be presented in subsequent years in recognition of other discoverie's in significant fields of human endeavor.

Request UN Study Question of Aged Maltese Cite Need of Care, Use of Skills UNITED NATIONS (NC) "Question of the Elderly and the Aged" is the title of a new item that the delegation of Malta has requested be included on the agenda for the 24th session of the United Nations General Assembly.

The memorandum accompanying the request pointed out that "probably more than one-quarter of the population is elderly or aged."

Their treatment varies from country to country, but however humanitarian, "does not appear capable of overcoming the sense of isolation of the majority of the elderly and the aged from the mainstream of national life or of encouraging suitable and effective use of their knowledge, skills and experience in national development."

According tp a spokesman for the Maltese mission, the proposal has met with favorable response from other delegations.

Malta, which is becoming known for new and creative initiatives in its desire to be "constructive," hopes there will be some discussion, although it considers this may be just preliminary.

Stonehill Classes Now under way 'at Stonehill College, North Easton is the Fall semester of evening' classes.

Most classes will meet Tuesday evenings for 10 weeks. Subjects include speed reading, English grammar, inerior decoration, film appreciation, art, philosophy, theology, psychology, graphology, and many courses in the, fields of business and labor.

The proposal, according to the spokesman, is geared primarily to the socio-psychological aspects of the question and is concerned 'with the best means of "not wasting" the' experience of the elderly.

Because medical advances are reportedly retarding the process of aging, the spokesman added, this has important implications for social policy.

PATERSON (NC)-The growing demand for practical procedures of due process in the Church, far from signaling a rebellion against authority, stands as a "wholesome sign of brotherly concern for justice ~nd charity in our mutual relatIOnships within the Church," Bishop Lawrence B. Casey of Paterson said.

"Nothing makes a leader wiser in judgment or more prudent in action than the prospect 'of legitimate criticism to which he must listen," the bishop wrote in the Beacon, Paterson diocesan newspaper.

"When power is exercised without provisions for checks and balances, there is the danger that a habit of domination and a spirit of intolerance will develop.

"The growing demand for practical procedures of due process within the Church is a symptom of this desire for checks and balances. I believe that路 this is a wholesome sign of brotherly concern for justice and ch~rity in our mutual relation. ships within the Church."

The bishop made his observations in an expanded version of his reguiar weekly column, By the Way, in which he announced the convocation of diocesan synod. The column also discussed authority, collaboration and service in the light of the Second Vatican Council, and examined the role of the Churchand of the bishop-in meeting the problems of the world.

Northeastern football coach Joe Zabilski was a bit con· cerned over last year's 6-3-0 season. Record wise it was a winning campaign but the Huskie grid mentor was far from pleased. His 1968 roster was dotted with inadequacies which a high-scoring offense managed' to neatly conceal.

With much of his offensive squad having been absorbed by , the graduation sponge, Zabilski was confronted with many voids, to fill prior to the '69 campaign if Northeastern was to continue on its winning ways. .

Despite the fine season, defense proved a particular problem last season.

With that thought in mind, the Huskie coach made his initial move, switching offensive halfback Bruce Cornell to a . linebacker post.

The former Taunton High three-sport athlete had been an offensive fixture in the Northeastern bacldield for the past two seasons and the switch was somewhat surprising.

"It appears this move will help us," said Zabilski upon announcing the switch, "But if we ever need Cornell on offense, he could go back."

The move aparently paid off as the Huskies routed C.W. Post, ' 38-8, in their opener last Saturday at Edward Snow Parsons Field in Boston.

Cornell, a 1966 graduate of Taunton High, came to Northeastern on an athletic scholarship.

While at Taunton, he was a four-year sensation on the football, basketball and baseball squads earning. letters in all three sports.

Cornell was a' halfback and linebacker on the gridiron, a guard on the hardwood and a leftfielder on the diamond.

In addition to playing football at the Boston-based school, Cornell is also a member of the Huskie baseball roster where he is listed as an outfielder. As a sophomore, he was the team's

• High School Three Letter Athlete In

By PETER J. BARTEK

Mansfield had its problems in the season's opener when it bowed before classy North Attleboro in a Hockomockleague encounter. Franklin, also of the Hockomock, easily up-ended Case last Saturday, but the Narry team may find the going a little easier this coming weekend when it meets a young and inexperienced Foxboro team which has only two lettermen in the starting line-up.

Seekonk, the fifth member of the Narry organization, will be idle this weekend after having split in its first two contests.

Coach Val LaFontaine's club pasted Blue Hills Vocational in its last outing after having been eased by Bishop Feehan High of Attleboro in the curtain raiser.

Seekonk, which displayed a creditable brand of ball against the Bristol County leaguers, has come a long way in two seasons in the Narry loop, and, it can be counted upon to give a still better account this Fall.

The last time that Dartmouth defeated Bishop Stang High' of the Bristol County league was in 1961 when Carlin Lynch was coach at the diocesan high

noit's club begins to look more and' more, as the club to beat for the peimant. If it doesn't clinch the flag itself, Taunton is going to decide who will carry off the honors.

Three contests will feature the Capeway Conference this coming weekend. Lawrence of Falmouth, which romped to victory over Canton of the Hockomock last Saturday, will be at home to take on Wareham, a loser to Fairhaven' last weekend.

The latter travels to the mid· Cape to battle Dennis-Yarmouth.

Barnstable is at Bourne. The former topped Stang while the latter dropped a close one to Coyle, also of the BCL, last Saturday.
