Sacrifice Personal Taste for God's Will

It also has open ed the way for fraternal and friendly gestures in a sincere attempt to translate into action the sincere hopes and prayers «or Christian Unity.
Both sides, Catholics OIl the one hand, Orthodox and Protes tants on the other, have been .at fault time and again through the centuries. Both must now beg forgiveness of God and of each other. Thus, Session III of Vatican It will go down in history for hav ing given the Church a great positive tone in her relation ships with non-Catholics. Here sy is still and always will be heresy.

McCarthy, SS.CC., Provincial of the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts, Fair haven, concerning four assignments of Sacred Hearts Fathers to· parishes in the administrator of St. Anthony's, Diocese, effective Thursd'ay, as Mattapoisett.

On Nov. 21, 1963, the original text was presented' to the Fathers for the first time and was approved for discussion by
a 1966-86 vote. Then the Fathe1'll proceeded to discuss the schema and present their individual and· collective views. The Second Session finished before more could be done. During the Inter-Session, the Secretariat for' Christian Unity' received the Fathers' opinions as they had been 'voiced in the council chamber. They also re ceived some 500 recommenda tions in writing from .the world's bishops, 75 of these from as sembled groups of bishops. Turn to Page Five:
Council Is Now Examining Scripture
And Tradition Roles in Revelation
The Church is a divinely delegated teacher. It is to teach with God's own authority, clearly, unmistakably. But teach what? Surely individual representatives of the Church the Bishops and in a lesser degree, priests-cannot teach what they like or what seems practical in a given instance. They must ever be careful to teach all-and only-what God wants to be taught. The Commission concerning in the tradition of the 'Church But where will they get Theology gave its report to the found in some way in the Bible; this teaching in order to Fathers. It was a double report, or, is there something equally transmit it to others? This one which reflected the majority revealed found only in the is exactly what the Discussion on Revelation seeks to clearly define.

Ponder Religion in Public Schools TRENTON (NC) - The New Jersey Department of Education, in consultation . with the attorney general's office, is conducting what it terms an iriformal study of ways in which religion might legally be incorporated in public school classroom studies. However, it was made known, the state board of education is not going to make recommenda tions on such a program one way or another. Initiative will be' left up to local school boards.. Explore Ways It was dicslosed that the state office will act as a resource cen ter to which local boards can turn if they decide to program
a course of study in religion. Existence of the study was made known by Gov. Richard J. Hughes in a letter to Neal Sweetman of North Haledon, N. J., who had asked the school board there to provide teaching in religion for his children. He had also asked that they be per mitted to read the Bible and to pray in school on a voluntary basis. The Governor said the state had begun "an exploration of the ways and means by which the curriculum and education programs of our public schools can be strengthened to provide the youth of.New Jersey with an appreciation of the religious heritage of this nation."

MIAMI BEACH (NC) There'll a decidedly definite "home was never like this" atti tude h,ere among 71 young men students of nearby Biscayne CoUegt!, here in Florida. They're living, but only temporarily, at a rather swank ocean-front motel. It is, perhaps, the only college "dorm" in the country with a cocktail lounge - even though the lounge is off-limits for the students. Besides the ocean for swimming or surfing after class . hours, there's an oceanview swimming pool. Th~ 71 fortunate students from the U. S., Canada and Latin Ameri(:a will continue to live in the motel until' mid-Novem ber when the real college dorm is scheduled to open. The col lege, cQnducted by the Augus tinian Fathers, was founded three )I'ears ago.

The Bible Vigil, notes Rev.

The Service of the Word at the beginning of Mass, Say'8 Father Steakem, "is perhaps the most familiar and most obvioUl example in the liturgy. It serves as a guide and outline for the structuring of these devotions. Their purpose is 'simple: atten tion to the word of God followecl by the prayerful response . . God's people."

Council Fathers Drive for Christian U'nity Continued from Page One Archbishop Joseph M. Martin, Ordinary of Rouens, France, also a member of the Secretariat, pointed out - in an address to the Fathers - that the Council Commission "took special care to reflect the mind of the Coun eiI and never to sUbsiitute its ewn point of view for what had been expressed in council meet ings."

Adjustments would be made if necessary and' then - later - the schema would be presented for a vote On the whole topic. Schema Article. The Shema on Ecumenism (Christian Unity) is now pre ceded by an introductory article which clearly states the methods and the object of Ecumenism. This article had been requested by many Fathers. Briefly, the article can be divided into three parts': (1) Christian Unity, the work of the e:ouncil; (2) Christian Unity, the common work of all Christians; (3) Christian Unity, the work of Catholics. The first part states that "the restoration of the unity of i!11 Christians is one of the principle aims of the Vatican II Ecumen-

'The Church Universal
Mission-Sending Societies Ponder Need for Change
Exercise
An interesting but fruitless intellectual exercise is that of explaining what would or would not have happened to such and such a person if some different element had en.· tered his life. The October-November issue of The Critic, a pubJi.. eation of the Thomas More Association of Chicago, has just such an article by Rev. John M. Joyce, editor of The - Oklahoma Courier. The burden of the article is that John F. Kennedy would not have become President of the United States had he received his formal 'education in Cath.· olic schools since these train leaders for Catholic commun·· ities and not for an American society of many religiOlis persuasions. "Throughout his schooling John F. Kennedy was engaged and involved in the reality of our society to a greater extent than he would have been had he attended Catholic schools. As a result he was mOre a product of our society, and, consequently, more at home in it. This helped him toward a deeper sensiti~ity to the need of th4~ American people:' Father Joyce would surely admit that the purpose ole a school, any school, is not to make a man a product of the society that surrounds him but to make him master of it, a leader in it, one who shapes its future accordinll~ to the highest ideals and against the prevailing elemenbl of poverty and ignorance and prejudice that beset it. Perhaps what Father Joyce is warning against is the Catholic school that would train a -Catholic to live in :!~ Catholic ghetto. There don't seem to be many Catholi(~ educational leaders advocating such a policy however. An~1 the Catholic schools that may be doing this, all unawares, are surely growing more and more to realize that the vo-· cation of the Catholic is not to live in a Catholic hot-houSE~ but to be the leaven in the mass. Indeed, from the very words of Christ, this is and has always been the philosophy of the Catholic educational program: "I do not pray that thou take them out of the world, but that thou keep them from eviL" The product of the Catholic school whose interesbl would be simply the Catholic community has missed com· pletely the sense of mission which is inextricably bound ti):l with the vocation of a Catholic, indeed, with his very name-Catholic, which means universal. However interesting Father Joyce's speculation may be, it simply won't do.
Standard of Success A newspaper article on a leading Americ'an composer started in an ordinary way by relating the composer'~1 works and an account of his latest travels. But in just 2~ few paragraphs the article turned to the nauseating ac·· count of the composers material possessions-a yacht in the Mediterranean, a Rolls-Royce convertible and a swimminJJ~ pool in Palm Springs. The listing of these status symbols was done in sucll a jejeune way that it would be laughable if it were not significant of something deeper-the assumption that pos·· sessions are the goal and proof of a successful life. A man is poor indeed and a reporter young indeed if they think that a catalogue of things complete with priCE~ ,tags can sum up a man's happiness or degree of success. There is much poverty in America if no other standard~1 are considered. Not so long ago a popular singer was asked about his early life when he and his wife of a quarter of a century were just married. He summed things up wise1)i and well when he said that in those early days he and RosIE~ had all the things that money could not buy. Much more significant than yachts and cars and swim·. ming pools.

TODAy-st. Bridget, Widow. "Both new and old things" (Gospel) must be treasured by Christians. The test of treasure is neither age nor novelty but rather the relationship and use fulness of any idea, deed or program to Christ and to His Gospel. Our ideas, our habits, our beliefs as we have formu lated them-these are not the treasure. Man must find the treasure, again and again, redis cove:r it, subject himself to it, be c,pen to it when it is new as well as when it is venerable. TOMORROW-St. .John Leon ard, Confessor. The mission of the Christian is not only to love. He has a mission to teach as well, to teach a message beyond the messages of human wisdom, a message which comes from the :source of life and touches life at its deepest levels. We are "entrusted * * * with this minis try" (First Reading) and there fore see our Christian formation through Scripture and the sac ramE'nts as a vocation and, nec essity. We honor "confessors" because we know we must be eomE, such.
is seen in this perspective. The Gospel parable about the mercy and forgiveness we owe one an other, Job in the Offertory verse, the Entrance Hymn's confession "All things, Lord, are subject to your power"-each touches a facet of our experience of ten sion and rebellion and perver sity not only in men but in all of creation. The Christian's nat ural optimism is sobered by this realization. MONDAY-Mass as on Sun day. Fighting would be futile and optimism ridiculous if we depended on our human powers ,alone. "Draw your strength from the Lord," teaches the First Reading as it instructs us in the . warfare which is the Christian life. "It is not against flesh and blood that we enter the lists." In the light of Christ's prom o ises, of His final coming, our armor is reduced to the .Gospel itself: truth, justice, peace, faith -the Word of God. If our war fare, however well-intentioned, erects barriers between our selves and our neighbors, then we are on the wrong track (GosPel). The enemy is evil, and is more omnipresent than our neighbors. We are'closest to it in ourselves.
SATURDAY-St. Francis Bor gia, Confessor. To be a confessor is to incarnate and animate in our particular, unique exis~ tenCf!ll the life - out - of - ,death Chrillt has achieved for us aU. The Gospel's "every man that, has j~orsaken home, or brothers, or sisters" etc. is the death part of this process, inseparable from the perfect love, the larger life of tl1e Spirit which requires the relinquishing of obstacles to service and to unity. Eternal life is received in suffering the deaths of our selfish, partial, provincial lives. 21ST SUNDAY AFTER PEN TECIOST. These last Sundays after Pentecost have the same focm: as the Church's Advent liturgy. They are concerned with the last coming of the word his glorious and fulfilling and completing advent. They look toward the goal of the whole process of creation and evolution. Not'complaining ly nor impatiently, but with the quiet confidence of faith that there is a direction and a for ward movement in this life. And the problem of evil, with which today's Mass seems pre occupied, will not crush us if it
U~iven,;ty
TUESDAY-St, Edward, COD fessor. If the Council's constitu tion OIl liturgical reform is car ried out in the years ahead, we shall have far fewer saints' days celebrated by the whole Church. Apart from a few uni versally venerated men and women, local churches will honor local heroes. Perhaps, if we are not inun dated by saints for every day of the year, we will find such a celebration more meaningful and more inspiring. "Here is a life to wonder at" (First Reading). We need such lives "to wonder at" and to excite our imitation. WEDNESDAY - St. Callistus, Pope, Martyr. If the battles and the means of warfare are differ ent for Christians, so also is the exercise of authority. "Not tyr annizing, each in his own sphere, but setting an evample, as best you may, to the flock" (First Reading). . So the keys given to Peter were keys not only to unlock the obedience of the people but also to unlock his own heart to the people that he hight min ister' to them and serve them.
15th annual meeting of U. S. mission-sending societies here. Some 1,200 Catholic priests, Religious and laymen active ill missionary work heard speakei' after speaker declare that only changed' attitudes, training and techniques will bring success to the Church's mission efforts iIa the 1960s. The three-day meeting was held on the theme "Reappraisal!:' Prelude to ·Change." The con ference was sponsored by the Mission Secretariat, a clearing.. house of mission information and services with headquarters here. Three Key Areas At the closing general session, three officials of missionary communities outlined the pres ent situation and the future course of missioners in three key areas of the world-Africa, Asia and Latin America. Father John A. Bell, W.F., vice provincial of the White Fathers' American province, discussed Africa; Father Nicholas Maes trini, P.I.M.E., U. S. provincial of the Pontifical Institute Foreign Mission (P.I.M.E. Fathers), dis cussed Asia; and Mother Mary Colman, mother general of the Maryknoll Sisters, discussed I..atin America. Father Bell called for the Church in Africa to adopt a pol icy of "complete Africanizaton· in regard to liturgy, architec ture, music and other aspects. While this can "only be done by Africans themselves," he said, misionaries can help by encour aging African Christians to lose ~heir "sense of inferiority· toward their own cultures. 'Foreign Import' Father Maestrini noted that the association of Christian mis sioners with colonial authorities in Asia caused many Asians in. the past to think of Christianity as "just a foreign import." As the currents of independence and "ultranationalism" continue to flow in that part of the world, he said, "we will be handicapped to a great extent because of the whiteness of our skins." Mother Mary Colman said , Latin America today is undergo intf a "social upheaval" which has made radical changes in the challenges facing'the Church and its manner of meeting them. She particularly stressed rapid po.pulation growth (63 million people in Latin America in 1900, 200 million today, and 400 mil lion by the year 2000) and the huge movement of people frOID rural areas to cities which she called "one of the great migra tions in history."

Jesuit Says Church-State
Amendment Unnecessary
NAACP Official Praises Church As friend
BRIDGEPORT '(NC)-A Catholic law' school dean said berethat there is no need for a constitutional amendment to change the Church-State provisions of the U.S. Constitu tion. "No such action is required by any decision or series of decisions of the Supreme tion alleged to be for the com Court of the United States," mon good but in reality uncon declared Father Robert F. sciously dictated by the attitude Drinan, S.J., dean of Boston that what is good for his own College law' school. Father Drinan made his com ments in setting forth what he called "T e n Commandments for Christian jurists" to guide them in Church-State matters. The "commandments" were these: l' "Be scrupulously fair to all our fellow citizens--believer and non-believer, religionist ~nd atheist, Christian and non-Chris tain." 2) "Insist that the American state clarify, cherish and com municate those basic moral prin ciples on which the republic is founded and without which the nation cannot reallY sur vive." 3) Have "a critical but re spectful regard for the dignity and the opinions of the United States Supreme Court." Benevolent Neutrality Father Drinan said that in its' interpretation of the Constitu tion's establishment-of-religion clause the high court "has sought to give to the state an attitude of benevolent neutrality towards all religions." "Those who would insist that the court has been in error since 1947, when first it construed the establishment clause, have the burden of demonstrating how an alternative line of rea soning would have been both consistent with the Constitution and more advantageous to the nation," he said.' 4) "Every person of the Cath. olic, Pr{)testant and Jewish faith, as well as every person of no faith, must be scrupulously careful to avoid taking a posi-
church or consistent with his own philosophy is good for America." 5) "Emotional arguments and appeals are...to be avoided." 6) "Be objective about the quality of Catholic schools...It is the jurist who more than any one can challenge with valid evidence the contemporay at tempts by some Catholics to denigrate Catholic schools. It is the jurist who is uniquely trained to question and qualify the allegations of some non Catholics that Catholic -schools are academically inferior and· socially divisive." 7) "Speak out and lead. ~ .To day's officers of the court have a unique challenge to become the architects of a Church-State entente which will guarantee full religious freedom to all the citizens of a religiously plura listic society." Require Patience 8) "The contemporary Church State crisis is so pressing and so urgent that its resolution can not be deferred." 9) "Great patience." The is sues involved in the debate about religion in public schools and public support of nonpublic schools are "so obscure, so un settled, so emotion-laden that the jurist who seeks even to olarify the situation must pos sess a degree of patience com mensurate with the complexity and sensitivity of the problem." 10) "Your effectiveness as a Christian cannot rise above the level of your own personal sanc tification."

'Peace Priest' Hails Acord BUDAPEST (NC) - A Hun garian "peace priest," Father Miklos Beresztoczy, has wel comed last month's agreement between the Holy See and the Hungarian communist govern ment as an act which will strengthen the "pacification of Hungarian Catholic life." Father Beresztoczy, who has been excommunicated for his political activities, is also vice president of the Hungarian par liament. Writing in the official organ of the Catholic Committee of the
National Peace Council, he said the agreement was made possi ble by ''the inevitable develop ment of socialism in Hungary which withstood the revolution of 1956, the logical deportment of Catholic clergy and laitYofor decades, and the realistic policy is steadily gaining the upper hand in the Vatican * * *" Signed Sept. 15, the agreement allowed the Holy See to fill sev eral vacant Sees in Hungary but left unsettled the fate of Jozsef Cardinal Mindszenty who has been living in refuge in the U. S. legation here since 1956.
ored People, told 800 persons at a rally in the Seattle Center, "one of the best friends" the Negro has today "is the Catholic Church." The civil rights leader recaned his personal experiences with Joseph Cardinal Ritter of St. Louis and Bishop Vincent S. Waters of Raleigh, N. C. He said the two prelates championed in tegrated parochial school sys terns long before tensions over civil rights arose. Lauding the Church's progres sive steps in the interracial jus tice field, Wilkins said Protestant groups possibly could imitate the Catholic Church's unified authority and clerical discipline to attain the desired goals. He cited the University of Notre Dame for its "tremendous policy" of integrating its aca demic and athletic programs. Wilkins said its was "gratifying" to see Negro athletes play for the "Fighting Irish."

Seton Hall has said it cannot continue to operate the 10,.year old school because of the finan cial drain. A special commission appointed by Gov. Richard J.

At present, status of the school awaits reconvening of the state Legislature after the November elections to take up the commis sion report.

By John J. Kane, Ph.D. ,<4For 37 years of married life I have been a victim of tempermental explosions daily. My only hope seems to be separation. Because I don't work outside the home, my husband tells me I don't "earn anything." He retired this year and says his security is live to be extremely his alone. All his life he has persons old and do not become senile been interested only in his but some show touches of senil~ business, discusses nothing ity even in their early sixties. with me, takes me nowhere, and

tells me bluntly,
"Get out if you
don't like it'."
There are some
points in )"Our
. letter, Gertrude, which make your problem far more com plex than one might at first assume. I fear,You have a mixture of a biological eondition and aging, with its psychological impact. As I am forced to ask so many times when I receive a letter like yours, why have you tolerated a situation of this nature for such a long time? Or, have you yourself tended to exaggerate it at this particular point? • It is perfectly ridiculous for any husband to inform a wife who maintains a home and rears five children that she "earns nothing". True enough, she may not be bringing any actual cash into the home, unless employed outside, but the mere cost of employing a maid to do the housework a wife performs would be prohibitive. Prohibi tive, that is, assuming that one eould obtain such a maid. Takea for Granted The loving rearing of children by a good mother is something' 80 priceless that no tag can be placed upon it., It is a profession like the clergy, physicians or teachers, and really it Is some tiling of an thi:ee at one time. Obviously, the mother does Ilot administer sacraments u a priest, operate or prescribe as a skilled physician, or transmit advance,knowledge like a col lege professor. But she constant ly teaches children how to be children of God. I don't think any of what I· said will come as a surprise to any intelligent person, but I do feel the need to say it. So very often wives and mothers are taken for granted. (Husbands are too, but that will have to wait for another column). Explains SenOit,. To get more to your specific problem, mainly that your hus band fails to appreciate or com municate with you, tells you to leave if you don't like things, and that )"ou yourself are on tile verge of a separation, seem til» be indications that his age may be affecting him psycho logically. Let me be entirely dear about this to avoid mis IIIlderstanding. . As the vast majority of· us II'Ow older, there is a tendency to a hardening of the arteries. Sometimes this occurs in the brain, and under the most acute atuations, is known as senility. Senility is the type of psycho ab, that is a mental illness, eaused by an organic condition. There is no cure for it. But let me hasten to add that most older persons are not senile, some

Explain Circumstances My positive advice to you is to consult your family physician about your husband's condition. Please do not discuss this with your husband first, but go to your family physician. I do hope you have one. Then explain these circumstances in detail. Let him know especially if there has been any sudden change in your husband's con duct. There· are certain other psychological possibilities, but since I am not a physician, I prefer not to mention them. It may well be that your physician can clear this matter up quickly and thoroughly, or at least he can lead you to a sympathetic understanding of the fact that your husband may be ill. I would not make a great issue out of whose money the retire 'ment fund is. It is necessary, however, for you to protect yourself in the event the retire ment fund is one in which he can make a choice to receive a larger sum during his lifetime, or a smaller sum during his lifetime so that a certain income is left for your lifetime. As a matter of fact, this should be investigated and if need be, you may have to take the matter up with an attomey. Your husband has a moral ob Hgation here. SUl'l'ests Check-up Once again I must retum to one of my earlier questions: why did you tolerate this situation for 37 years? Because you have, r am about to make a suggestion that may annoy you. When you consult your family physician regarding your husband's con dition, I suggest you also have a complete check-up. r can only judge by what you tell me in your letter and I have no reason not to accept what you say. But since you have been married 37 years, I am guessing that you are in your early sixties. A thorough phys ical examination may be in order. With all these years behind you, you are fortunate to have each other. Instead of separa tion, quarrels about money, and considerations of separations, you should both attempt to find out just what is wrong, patch up your differences, and look forward to the enjoyment of those years which God has left to you. .
American Sister Wears Wig in Mexico City MEXICO CITY (NC)-5ister MQl')' Concepta, O.P., has been walking around the streets of Mexico City in the height of fashion, wearing a high-style wig. The reason is that Mexico's anti-clerical laws forbid the wearing of clerical garb in pub lic. Sister Concepta, transferred here on short notice from the School of the Madelein in Berkeley, Calif., had cut her bair short for Summer comfort under her veil, and it was not long enough to be styled.

Hails Women's Role Religious of Sacred Hearl Superior Sees
Contribution to Council
VATICAN CITY (NC)-"The presence of women in the coun cil will contribute considerably toward the understanding of ·the true meaning of the updating of the Church which the council strives to achieve," said Mother Sabine de Valon, 64, general su perior of the Religious of the Sacred Heart and president of the Union of Major Religious Superiors since 1948. Mother de Valon was first on the list of Religious women au ditors at the ecumenical council made public by Pope Paul VI. Bom in Cahors, France, she was the daughter of a lawyer and entered religious life at the age of 20. She came to Rome in 1954 and has since traveled widely, including visits to the United States. Like the other women audi tors, Mother de Valon was taken by surprise by the Pope's an nouncement, but she has been following the council debates and is fluent in Latin. Offer Advice "Naturally," she said, -we are greatly pleased. I realize that the women, like the men audi tors, will only listen.

"And .that's a good thing because so far women have been kept apart in the Chureh, and not often taken into the confidence of bishops and pastors. This may now change as the result of the Holy Father's decision."

Sacred Heart in the home was founded in 1907 by a Father of the Sacred Hearts, Father Mateo Crawley-Boevey, SS.CC., at Par ay-Le-Monial in France. Ap proved and warmly encouraged by all the Popes, beginning with St. Pius X, it was introduced into this country in 1913 through a letter written by a little girl in Valparaiso to the Superior of the Sacred Hearts Monastery in Fairhaven. This child was one of a num ber of youthful secretaries help ing Father Mateo spread the Enthronement in other countries. Father Mateo, famed throug out the world as the great "Apostle of the Sacred Heart," arrived in the United States in 1940 and after preaching his crusade in many dioceses came to Faithave in 1943. Way of Life
The Enthronement of the Sa cred Heart in the home can be considered both as a ceremony and a way of life. In the cere mony, the family, led by the father, enthrones an image of Christ showing his heart in .a prominent place as an accept ance of the rule of Christ as King and Savior of the home. At the same time the family dedicates itself to the Heart of our Lord. Speakers at the work shop will tell of the extraordi nary blessings that have come to such dedicated homes. The regional center for the Enthronement of the Sacred Heart is located at Sacred Hearts Academy, Fairhaven.

Oppose Protection of State Religions Must Avoid Future Coercion Ever Arising Continued from Page One IIignatures "of many bishops of· Africa, Madagascar and many other regions;" and 90 was given . the floor. .His remarks seemed aimed against that part of the Declara tion text which speaks of state protection for certain religions; If this part of the text is not deleted, he. said, "we shall ap pear to be skillful politicians or diplomats, but we shall think that, .when we find ourselves in a favorable position, we shall once agail). defend coercion in religious matters." It is absolutely necessary, he said, that religious liberty be doctrinally and not merely prag matically justified, both in a positive way "by recalling the absolute dignity of the human person created according to the image of God, and by recalling the reverence due him ·espe cially in religious matters;" and also i: , a negative way "by sol emnly rejecting the so-called right of using coercion on peo ple, should here or there in the future a concrete possibility of practicing such coercion again present itself." Archbishop Zoa, an outstand ing African clergyman and one of the leaders of the Pan African Conference of Bishops, gave three reasons why the Declara tion on Religious Liberty was
'-absolutely necessary" for the mission of the Church itself. Without such a Declaration, he said, 1) no contacts can be made, . or kept, or developed; 2) the Catholic Church will appear like a sect, or like a totalitarian group, both of which are accus tomed to ignore the rights of the human person because of "so-called rights of truth;" and' 3) "we shall be like traitors to ChriSt • • • who in no way used force against us, nor a panoply of law, nor any form of power, but rather came to us only in the spirit of humility, charity and patience." Christ's constant symbol, the archbishop said, had always been "a living and inex haustible charity by which God loved the world, and we are his witnesses in the entire world." Summing up his remarks he said. "We must therefore speak
about religious liberty in such a· way ·that every man, as such, will be able to agree with oW' assertions."

Needs "of the Missions
God Love You";
Suggests Simple Formula· For Becoming 'Expert'
By Most Rev. Fulton J. Sheen, D.D. Week after week we appeal for a little sacrifice even though It may be a dollar. How encouraged we are to learn of some of our fellow Catholics in America who goive not just what they have, but what they are. Take the ease of Dr. Waldo Hanns. After practieing se~en years as an orthopedle surgeon. he gave up his practice in 1962 and for two years worked in a leper settlement in Afriea. He and his &'ood wife who assisted him, worked without salary and during their stay there en deared themselves to the lepers by their oharlb'. their kind ness and their attention.
Rev. Andrew M. Greeley Msgr. George G. Higgins is again in Rome to assist in the work of the third session of Vatican Council U. Father Andrew M. Greeley, who writes The Yardstick during his absence, is assistant pastor of st. Thomas the Apostle Church, Chicago; senior director at the National Opinion Research Center, Uni versity of Chicago, and president-elect of the American Catholic Sociological Society.
One of the most interesting asp~ts of contemporary American Catholicism is the ease with which a person can become an "expert." The formula is simple: all one has to do is speak out often enough on a subject and one is defined as an expert; in 10) Catholic schools are fail-" deed, jf the noise one makes ing to * * * (again fill in what ~ loud enough and/or f~ ever is your favorite complaint). quent enough, one. can even 11) The trouble with the mod
become an "authority." (The dif ference between an "authority" and an "expert" is that. the for mer needs no evidence at all to be quoted in the Catholic press, while the latter is expect ed to offer at least some kind of" proof for what he says though generally precious little.) As a sort of do-it-yourself kit for would-be experts, I offer the following statements which are guaranteed to get attention and begin a promising career. 1) There is a decline in reli gious vocations because young people aren't as generous as they were in the good old days. 2) Young Catholics are leav Ing the Church in great numbers because the Church has nothing relevant to say to them. 3) Catholics are going to de lert the Democratic party be cause of anti-Communist senti ments. 4) The reason why Irish po licemen are brutal to Negroes is because the y unconsciously envy the sexual freedom of Negroes. 5) The best way to promote the liturgical movement is to close down parochial schools. Council Failure 6) The Catholic Church is do ing nothing to promote racial Integration. 7) The Vatican Council will be a failure if it doesn't * * *(fill in whatever reform happens to be your favorite). 8) There is a natural tension between "lay thinkers" and Bishops, and too close a friend ship between them is dangerous for the "lay thinkers." (This is pretty sophisticated: ordinary laymen must be content with anticlericalism as their status symbol, but if you are a "lay thinker" you are entitled to be antiepiscopal.)
Seller's Market 9) There is no interest in Catholicism on the"secular cam pus" (which, of course, means Harvard).
Hoover to Receive
Sword of Loyola
CHICAGO (NC)-FBI Direc tor J. Edgar Hoover has been selected as the first recipient of its Sword of Loyola Award of Loyola University here. The presentation will be made Tues day, Nov. 24 at the annual din ner of the university's Stritch School of Medicine. The award is a reproduction of the sword of St. Ignatius of Loyola, who was a Spanish soldier and nobleman before embarking on a career in reli gious life which led to founding in 1534 the Society of Jesus. and sainthood in 1622.
em layman is * * • (this one can be completed only by priests or even better, by bishops). By now the aspiring expert will get the hang of it. You don't really have to worry too much about proof. If you sound off frequently enough you will be come a member of some Estab lishment or another and anyone who dares to ask for evidence will be roundly condemned, for example, as being similar to those who criticize Fathers Kung, Murray or Diekmann. Nor do you have to worry about having credentials. It is a seller's mar ket. " Of course, there" are 'some dangers, as the "expert" who writes these words would be the first to acknowledge. First of all, you will be deluged with all kinds of requests to give lectures and this may lead to your "line" growing stale - though if the truth be told this hasn't hap pened to anyone yet. Wit Unneeessal'J' "Second, you may be forced, eventually, to change your mind and admit that something you said was wrong. Again, this is not too frequent an occurrence since you can acquire some skill at tuning out anyone who comes up with contrary evidence. Third, American Catholicism may grow out of its present stage of nervous adolescence and become much more sophisticated about whom it listens to. Finally, you might be tempted by humor, and this will lead to the destruction of any "Catholic expert"; if at any moment he shows the slightest sign of not being passionately serious about all things-and especially himself -he will certainly be drummed out of the corps. The last thing in the world we have any room for in the fraternity of Catholic experts is wit. It is even worse than optimism.
FIRST VOWS: Sister Mary Jacinta of the Daughters of Mary of the Immaculate Conception, New Britain, has taken first vows in the community. She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Hurley of St. Wil liam's Parish, Fall River, and the grandniece of Very Rev. Patrick J. Hurley, pas tor of St. Joseph's Church, Taunton.

Fallen-Aways Need Special Treatment PASSAU (NC) -Fallen-away Catholics need special attention and cannot be reached through the ordinary apostolate of the Church, a conference of Catholic prison chaplains was told here in Germany. Father Johannes Leppich, S.J., of Frankfurt said that neither large-scale missions nor any kind of schooling can reach those who have left the Church. "The way to them leads only through personal contact," he said. "One must take a great deal of time, have a great deal of teaching skill and psycholog ical feeling for the attitude of the person who has fallen away." Msgr. Josef Rauscher told the chaplains that a growing num ber of prisoners are losing their faith. He said many prisoners no longer have a sense of guilt and are immune to appeala based OD. higher valuea. . \.

Priests, Laymen See New Awareness
Of Sacraments' Meaning
NEWARK (NC) A new awareness of the meaning of the sacraments was reported by priests and lay people here in New Jersey following adoption of English in the liturgy. Appreciation was also a uni versal reaction. One priest told of a little girl who came around to the priest's side of the confessional after making her confession and thanked him "for the very special prayer." A light on in the confessional was· a common sight. Many priests took cards with the typed English formula into the box, until they had the ritual down
pat.
Lay people were enthusiastic. Said one woman: "It's good to be told God forgives your sins." The maid of honor at a wed ding in. a church here said she listened intently to the EngIlsh and found herself feeling a kin ship with the Old Testament women held up for imitation in the nuptial blessing. .

Voss told them that Catholics have "permitted the vocation spirit to die. We have to rebuild this vocation spirit," he said.
riage, also greeted the English with enthusiasm. He was partic ularly delighted that the many non-Catholic guests at the wec,i ding "could understand what was going on." People Attentive At a hospital, a chaplain re ported that nurses knelt and looked up with new attention, patients waited with sharper ap preciation of the approaching moment as he held the Host aloft and said "Behold the Lamb of God * * *" Priests generally reported they spoke in louder and clearer voices because they knew they. had the people's attention. One also noted 'that use of the con versational language makes the priest "feel, closer to the peo ple." He said, too, that he had a "new sense of the authority of the .priest" when in the absolu tion he said· the phrase "to the extent of my power."

Improvement In Mass English BOSTON (NC)-One of America's best-known trans lators of classical literature said here he hopes the door . will be left open for improve ments in the English to be used in celebration of Mass. Dudley Fitts, instructor in English at Phillips Academy, Andover, Mass. and translator of numerous books of foreign po etry, said he hopes the vernac ular Mass will be given time to achieve "a form that is truly decorous." Fitts, an Anglican who agreed to an interview only if he was considered "merely as a me chanic" in the field of transla tion, said he thought the present form of English for the Mass has some "oddities," but he ex pressed confidence improve ments would be made through the work of "liturgists and men of truest taste." Problems The scholar, whose transla tions include Greek drama, Latin American poets and French authors, took issue with DECENCY IN READING CAMPAIGNERS: Cassidy the use of "You" instead of 'High participants in the Decency in Reading campaign are, "Thou" in referring to God.

World Famous Detective Age'ncy Guards Vatican Pavilion at Fair
Only Purpose of Creation Is Happiness With God
NEW YORK (NC) - It's a long way from outlaws who pil fered the money box. from a stagecoach in the old West to guarding Michaelangelo's famed "Pieta" at the New York World's Fair-but the Pinkertons were there both times.
By Rev. Joseph T. McGloin, S.J. If you did a survey on the questions which show up most often in "question boxes" and question-and-answer columns, you'd have to give the frequency trophy to an old favorite, "Is it wrong for a girl to kiss a boy?" or vice versa. And the questioner always wants think his purpose in' life is a simple yes or no, prefer kissing. Nor are there too. ably, of course, the former. many people shallow enough The trouble is that no one to think that their purpose in

simple yes or
no.. There 'are

al personalities
')- who could be involved. . But, above all, the question is isolated out of its context, and no answer can make sense until you consider that context, just as no road makes sense until you relate it to where you'd like to go. 'Right,' 'Wrong' The fact is that you can't an swer even a seemingly simple question like this without ref erence to your relation to God, arid to the entire scheme of human history and of human destiny and purpose. Take that word "right." Ther. is no "right" or "wrong" or anything else apart from our relation to God. And so in this question you are really includ ing an awareness of all of the ology and philosophy and ev erything else. And you'll never get a complete or satisfactory answer to this or any other question until you realize there is. a whole picture and start trying, to see it. :, Answers in Context I· suppose this is why we priests are often inarticulate and stumbling in the answers we. try to give to questions in their context. But a still more basic reason for our lack of clarity and your failure sometimes to compre hend is that, although we hu man beings have to eke out eur knowledge piece by tiny piece, Truth, God's knowledge is one and eternal, with no past 8l" future, only the eternal "now." This may well be the reason that so many !lpparently brilliant '- men have no philosophy of life. They have amassed an incred ible number of facts, but they have never put· those facts to gether, one with the other, so as to form something resem bling the essential unity of Truth. In the quiz show scandals ef some years back, we were shown a number of. people with very brilliant minds, or at least memories. But some of them, at least, had never put t'Ogether the facts in their 'minds to grasp truth in its essential unity. They knew this and tbat, and that and this, but they didn't put these together to come up with truth or wisdom. Facts of Existence Any question in your mind will include the facts of your Own existence and life and death' and destiny. Take our original example of a question here, "Is it wrong to kiss?" If you're a reasonable human being, you'll have to start with another question: "Is my pur pose in life to kiss?" Or, for that matter, "Is my purpose in life my own pleasure?" Now I say this somewha;t hes itantly, but it is doubtful if anyone is stupid enough to
life is only their own pleasure. And so we have to come to the question of what is our pur pose, and to answer that we are created for only one pur pose, to get to God and enjoy the perfect happiness of His friendship forever. Everything in· life is related to that pur pose. Wrong Uses Again, by the very fact that we would ask a question about kissing, we acknowledge that there must be something a bit askew in our natures, because we recognize that there is a tendency within us to make use of a kiss wrongly. We have a tendency to use a kiss beyond its innocent stages. And, in recognizing this tendency in us, we imply A U ][) ITO R : Rosemary the entire theology of original sin and its consequences, our Goldie of Australia, execu proneness to sin.

The
Parish
Parade
More than 300 members of the world famous detective agency assisted at a Mass and received Holy Communion at the Vatican Pavilion of the fair. The Mass was offered by Father Joseph T. Leahy, associate director of the pavilion. Msgr. John J. Gorman, pavil ion director, in his sermon con gratulated the Pinkertons for their police work, fire protec-
tion, ambulance service and health efforts at the fair. "The Pinkerton organization is largely responsible for the success of the Vatican Pavilion this first season of the New York World's Fair," Msgr. Gor man said. "Over 12,000,000 people have entered our exhibit since the opening day. Without the assist ance of the Pinkertons the oper ation of our pavilion in a safe and orderly fashion would have been impossible." Robert Pinkerton, grandson of the founder in 1850 of the or ganization, attended the Mass. He is not a Catholic. The Mass was followed by a Communion breakfast in the nearby Indone sian Pavilion.
WHATABOUT TOMORROW'S SISTER?
A SISTER WILL DRESS DIFFERENTLY 100 years from now, understand her own vocation better, be in closer touch with lay people. Moreover, she will be "imbued with a deep sense of the social nature of her vows." •.• Top officials of 400 religious orders agreed on these points not long ago. They met in Cincinnati to discuss the "Sister of the Future" ••• We think, of course, of our Sisters over. seas, and we wonder what will be· «lOme of them.

Stang, Attleboro Out Front . In County Schoolboy Race
Priest Details Six Principal Parts Of Mass Under Reyi~ed Liturgy
By Fred Bartek Several area teams and coaches have looked back to last week's action describing it as "the week that was." Upset was the word last Saturday in local high school foot ball games. Some of the mighty have fallen, while some of the lowly have risen to new Saturday, Feehan will try to heights. The supposedly un continue on the winning path touchable Hilltoppel'& of Dur against North Attleboro at Com fee were touched for a 14-13 munity Field. North Attleboro, defeat by the Jewelers of Attle boro. Durfee's string of 10 con secutive victo ries was snapped and more points we re scored against last year's Bris tol County champs than were scored all last season. Durfee will be playing against Stang this Saturday. This game has been tabbed as perhaps the one that will decide the championship. Everything points to a real thriller with stang riding along undefeated and . Durfee trying to regain its win ning form. The game will be held at Sargent Field, New Bed.. ford at 8 P.M. ander the lights and should set • record for at tendance. Leading individual scoren of the league will be pitted against each other. Stand-out Arthur Murray of Durfee will be Stang's big concern. Murray scored both touchdowns in last week's 10l!l ing encounter against Attleboro which brings his total to six. ,Jewelers Loom Big In action for Stang will be hard running fullback Roger Lacoste and fleet-footed half back Joe Bartek. Both these backs have crossed the goal line four times in their two previous games. Even with these various scoring threats we believe the key to game will be defense. From all angles it .looks like a very even contest, a toss-up. Yet ihis comer sees the coin falling in Stang's favor. Stang wants to regain that crown! Attleboro will be playing a non-league game at Masconomet. AI Zito will again lead his club into action. He is a leader any coach would love to have. It was . Zito who coolly brought, about the year's biggest upset. With his team behind 13-6 In the last quarter, he threw a "bomb" to end Dave Hardt that covered 51 yards. On the all important try for the extra points Zito ran wide around end to give his team the one point decision. He also scored the first TD for his team. Thus At tleboro, under Coach Jim Cas sidy has perhaps come to real ize their potentialities and will be a strong contender for the crown. Feehan on March Another big SUrPrise last week was Feehan's 21-6 victory over Coyle High of Taunton. Feehan came to life under the leadership of two sophomores, quarterback Robbie Poirier and halfback Peter Phipps. After a scoreless first half, Feehan'. effective passing game clicked as Poirier sent his aerials to Phipps and end Paul Cappo danno in • thrilling offensive showing.
In Reparation LONDON (NC) -The Sisters at Tyburn convent here have received a chalice, paten and ciborium from 1he Rev. Hubert Box, Anglican Vicar of Bexhill on-8ea, as • gift tor the new shrine Clnweh of 1he Sacred Heart IlDd the '1")lVunl Martyn. Jt 18 iD reparation for the per secutioIl of Cathotial iD Eliza betben times, wbeD ttlousancU
which played a scoreless tie with Taunton,. last week, has not dented the goal line once this year. If North cannot get its offense moving they may have .trouble with a newly in spired Feehan eleven. Coyle High will host New Bedford Vocational. Voke is rested after last week's lay-off. Mark Doherty, Coyle's ace quar terback, who suffered an injury in last week's game is a doubt ful starter. Coach Burns will be looking for his team's first league victory. Coyle, for the first time in many years, seems to lack a quick running back. To round out Bristol County action this Saturday Taunton will be playing at Fairhaven. The latter club has had to face the tough teams early and as a result is 0 and 2. The under manned Blue Devils might be about ready to show some life. The bright spot for Fairhaven has been halfback Steve Des roches and he could lead Fair haven to its first victory. On the other hand, Taunton is still undefeated after its tie last week. The Herrings will no doubt bt; emphasizing offense in practice as they were unable to move the ball for a substantial gain last week. Taunton's main threat will be junior half back Mike DeISolio. TrI-County Race Things continued hot and heavy in the Tri-County League and at this point it looks as though Wareham is the team to beat. Wareham, after edging Case High of Swansea 6-0, will be visiting Dartmouth this week which should prove to be an in teresting non-league game. Case will be at Franklin in another non-league encounter. It was Franklin that pulled an upset over Mansfield 16-13 last sat urday. In still another upset, Digh ton-Rehoboth's title hopes suf fered a setback at the hands of Old Rochester 6-0. The Bulldogs got all the points they needed on a 27 yard-pass froln Don Dorr to Tony Mello. This same combine will lead Frank Al meida's chargers against Som erset at Old Rochester Saturday. Dighton-Rehoboth will travel to Falmouth and under Captain Austin Donahue will try to re gain their winning ways. Fal mouth is still looking for its first win after last week's loss to Bourne. Things must take a rapid change if Falmouth is go ing to live up to pre-season . expectations. Boume Unbeaten Boume will host King Philip in a non-league game after be ing most successful to this point. There wasn't too much .said about Boume before the season started, but there certainly is DOW after their victories over Somerset and Falmouth. Coach Jim Sullivan of Somerset hopes his team is ready to play the ball it is capable of after tasting victory in a close 8-6 contest over Barnstable. It was Paul Hoole that hit end Lionel Rous seau for a. 39 yard tally and then tossed to fullback Joe Silva for the viclory margin. It looks as though. Somerset has tumed to the pass for its offensive punch arid Old Roch ester could look for this Satur day. Bamstable will be at Den nis-Yarmouth after suffering

College Fights Dropout Rate JERSEY CITY (NC) St. Peter's College here in New Jer sey has launched a war against that law of averages which trims freshman classes by 25 per cent before the end of the school year. To offset the traditional high academic mortality rate, the Jes uit institution is experimenting with a year-long freshman ori entation program. Last year, it cut failures by 40 per cent. Freshmen are assigned student mentors-volunteer upperclass men, each of whom watched over 20 freshmen. The first-year students also were closely super vised by faculty members who meet regularly with·" them to discuss their progress. "It makes their first tough days a little easier," said George Bull, president of St. Peter's Student Council and a mentor. In some instances, the pro gram has seen faculty members arid mentors alike acting as tutors to pull students through the adjustment to a new social and academic situation. Treated Unfairly Among dividends for school officials· from the program is a platform to sound out student response to faculty members. In one ease, according to Father Victor S. Yanitelli, S.J., director of student personnel, it uncover ed a faculty member who was treating students unfairly. "He was giving tests for which he had not prepared them," said Father Yanitelli. "The de a n found out through one of the student mentors and corrected the teacher."
Laity in Key Posts In Charity Program SAGINAW (NC) - Laymen have been. given key posts In .. revised Catholic Charities pro gram for the Saginaw, Michigan diocese. Father Paul C. Pelletier was named' director of the newly formed Family Life Education program for the diocese, but five laymen were appointed to key posts.

of the Mass under the revise<:i liturgy. He said they are: "I. The assembly of the people of God. "2. God speaking to his people through the sacred texts of th£' Bible. "3. God's people bring giftf to the altar-the people mus1 learn to find in this action 0: gift-giving a symbol of their giving of the gift of themselvel' to God and to eaCh other. "4. The solemn blessing of the bread and wine which changes them into Christ's bod;l' and blood. "5. By common eating (Com. munion) we express the truth that we are children of a com mon Father who feeds His fam ily in this wondrous way and rl;! minds them all that they are His children and accordingh' brothers and sisters of ea~h other. "6. The Church dismisses us and sends us home or to work with a commission to share in - the redemption of the world by rendering our withness to Christ among men." Father Sherzer, expressed the belief that the revised liturgy will link public workshop to the lives of the people. He also asserted: "A Catholic who does not talk and act for racial justice in a society in famous for its racial injustices and still goes to Holy Commu~ nion, could well be brought to - a erisis of conscience by a litur gical experience filled with • Christian sense of community."
EDMORE (NC)-Catholic in dividuals and organizations pitched in to help some 230 Puerto Rican migrant workers who were stranded here in Michigan without their wages or J' transportation money .when the pickle factory for which they weI' e 1Vorking unexpectedly closed down.
