On the eve of the Second Vatican Council, the old city of Rome is bristling with activity. Carpenters hammer the final touches to the tiered bleachers in the nave of St. Peter's Basilica; welcoming committees scan the skies and harbors for the approach of the honored guests; television commentators and newspaper reporters frantically search' for hotel rooms and "reliable Vatican sources"; and the battery of priest-stenographers hurriedly tries to master the intricate symbols of Latin shorthand. Even thlil bewildered tourist will agree that Rome's balmy October air is charged with a ral;e excitement and hope. . But the hope of Rome and the Catholic world is not centered in this whirlpool of preparatory bustle, but rather in those 2,600 bishops who are even now quietly checking into

Over 500,000 See Opening Rome Council Procession VATICAN CITY (NC)-An estimated 500,000 people Jostled and strained to witness the passing of history as the members of the Second Vatican ..Ecumenical Council 'marched in procession this morning across St. Peter's Square and into the basilica to begin the council. This high moment in the Church's history started at 8 :30 when the long procession of the wol"ld's bishops made their way to the basilica walking in front of Pope Jolln, who was carried on his portable throne. The council Fathers had assembled at 8, the cardinals in the Vatican's Hall of Benedictions and the Borgia apartments; the bishops in the Hall of Inscriptions, and the Pope in the Hall of Vestments. The Pope vested in mantle and jeweled miter, the cardinal bishops in ~opes, the cardinal-priests in chasubles and the cardinal dea~ons in tunics. The Oriental Rite patriarchs were vested in the soleml'\ vestments of their own varying rites. The bishops, archbishops and abbots donned white copes. All ~ cardinals, patriarchs, arch\l>ishops, bishops and abbots-put on simple white miters with ~heir double pointed crowns risftng high on their heads.

unity that it so. sorely needs. And, most important of all, it is the bishops alone who hold in their hands the' power to "up-date the Church" (Pope John's expression) so that it may better show itself to the world in the decades ahead as the "spotless bride of Christ." This 'renewal and up-dating of the Church will affect the life, worship and discipline of every Catholic, and thereby, at least indirectly, further the cause of Christian unity. "The Ecumenical Council," the Holy Father has said, "will be a' demonstration, uniquely far-reaching in its· significance, of truly world-wide catholicity . . . By God's grace, then, we shall hold this Council; we shall prepare for it by working hard at whatever on the Catholic side most needs to b~ healed and strengthened according to the . teaching of our Lord.

Court To Clarify Prayer in Schools Ru~ing WASHINGTON (NC) - The U.S. Supreme Court between now and next June may give the answer to a question that has troubled the nation for the past three months. The question is: What did the. court mean to do last June when it ruled . against a 22-Word prayer re- next months. cited in some public school The two cases pending before classrooms in New York' .. the court which could give it an State? The. answer, if it comes, will be given by the court in its usual way-through decisions in new cases that raise issues similar to those in the New York praye~ case. There is a good chance that an answer will be forthcoming. Two and perhaps three cases in_ volving religious practices in public schools will be before the court during its 1962-63 term. These considerations are prompted by the fact that on Monday, Oct. 1, the Supreme Court opened shop for another nine months. As it does so, the shadow of last June's New York prayer decision weighs heavily on the nine members of the nation's highest tribunal. Two Views It quickly became apparent· that the court's action had stirred up a hornet's nest of controversy. This mass of discussion, however, failed" to settle the fundamental question of just what the court had done: Basically it appears that there are two schools of thought on this point. One takes a narrow view of the court's ruling, emphasizes that the prayer involved in the "June decision was composed by state officials, and holds that all the COllrt really did was to rule out official, state-written. prayers in public schools. On the other side of the fence are those who take a broader view of the court's ruling, which was written by Justice Hugo L. Black. 'Conceding that the deciSion dealt only with a particular prayer recited in a particular' set of circumstances,. they nevertheless argue that the in-. herent logic of· the court's position would oblige it to rule out a host of other religious practices which have long been commo~ in lpany public schools.

·Paul Moreau Sets Records in Cultivation Of Chick Embryos Outside .Shell,

THE ANCHOR-

Expects Council To Clarify Lay Mission Role "

,By Patricia McGowan Chicken embryology may not be a subject that concerns most people-in fact, it isn'1r--but. to 17 year old Paul Moreau, a senior at Msgr. Prevost High School, Fall River, it's a matter of passionate enthusiasm. His, interest is partly due 'to the fact that chick embroyology is a "wide open field" with room for lots of research-and' researchers. He has already scored significant firsts in his experiments, notably in cultivating chicken embroyos outside the shell, He has succeeded in keeping developing chicks alive for 14 days, a record not even recognized embryologists have matched. He conducts his experiments in his cellar with home-made equipment. Patience and care make up for lack of technical devices and it's not unusual for him to be up at 2 in the morning with his chicks, for all the world like an anxious parent. Paul's developed a waste paper basket incubator that was featured last year on television when he was first prize winner in biology at the New England Science Fair. Previously he won awards in the Diocesan Science Fair, the Massachusetts State Fair and Prevost's own exhibition. This, Fall he has already appeared at the Eastern States Exposition, where his work garnered yet another blue ribbon to add to his collection. He spent the, Summer at the Universtiy of Connecticut, working with graduate students and with Dr. Herrmann Klien, nationally known embryology expert. Words flow from Paul when he's, talking about his chosen field, and in his explanations o(his projects and goals he displays a maturity beyond his years. His interest in chicken embry. ology began in ninth iralie, when he studied the process of egg fertilization. "I was fascinated at how something so simple as a spot of fertilized tissue could develop into something so complex as the developed chicken." What's the purpose of studying the chick embryo outside the shell? Paul says it makes study o~ development far simpler, enabling a clear view of such things as blood circulation and operation of the heart. Study of chick development may have important carry-over value for the human embryo as well, although Paul, with scien-

LEXINGTON (NC)-The coming ecumenical council will probably issue "clear and concise direCtions" on the missionary role of the laity, the chancellor of the Covington Diocese said here in Kentucky. Msgr. Edward T. Hickey told the convention of the Covington Diocesan Council of Catholic Women that because of the threat of paganism and immorality in the world "the Church today must lean heavily on the assistance of a dedicated, enlightened and inspired laity." He warned that "individuals everywhere are searching frantically for a freedom from religion and from the fundamental doctrines of faith." Principles 'Outmoded' "They are casting aside the basic principles of morality as being outmode'd and passe," he continued, "and, in this ,manmade freedom, they are succumbing to a pagan license which respects no one or noth-' ing, but considers only self. Unchecked, this wave of degeneracy can lead only to the destruc_ tion of Our society and the whole of civilization," Stating that the solution to these ills lies in the strengthening of faith in God and adherence to His moral code, Msgr.. Hickey said the Church is relying on the laity to bring to the marketplace "the Christian principles of faith and morals." He said the Church expects the laity to introduce these principles "in the home, in the community, in the business and professional world, in the field of entertainment and the press and in a host' of other area~ where God is openly denied and where the principles of Christian faith and morals are called into question, ridiculed, watered down and even totally ignored."

PAUL MOREAU tific caution, says nothing definite about possible benefits. This particular phase of emoryo study has occupied Paul for the past two years but for the coming season he intends to concentrate on the effect of ultraviolet radiation on the developing chick. 'Scientists theorize, he says, that the amount of ultra-violet radiation in the atmosphere is constantly increasing; therefore it is of value tq know, ahead of time, so to speak, what effects such radiation may be expected to produce. Paul's family supports him in his work, he says, although they 'aren't too keen on watching experiments in pro g res s. His father, Henry Moreau, has lent tI hand with some electrical

work, although Paul. has made all his own equipment. He;s an honor student at Prevost, where he's president of the biology club, unsurprisingly. He's a member· of St. Anne's parish in Fall River, and plans, unsurprisingly, to major in biology at college, earn a doctorate in embryology and eventually join th'e ranks of campus scientists of which he was this Summer a temporary member. Paul gives great credit to Brother Vincent, biology teacher at Prevost, ,for supporting his work, and he is also indebted to Dr. Roger Gillcrist, pathologist at St. Anne's Hospital, Fall River, for assistance and en_ couragement..

Anderson is a professor at the Royal School of Advanced Studies in Veterinary Medicine in Stockholm. Pope John said in presenting the award: ' "The Church readily encourages world research directed toward a better knowledge of man and the universe in accordance with the mission given by' God to Adam in the first pages of Genesis. Thus We wholeheartedly congratulate this young scientist whose books on the nerve mechanism of hunger, thirst and body temperatures have become standard." The theme of ,the academy's meeting was "The Problem of Cosmic Radiation in Interplanetary Space." Church Interested The Pope commented on the theme, saying; ''The Church is closely interested in the problems which i-ighUy comm'and the attention of tOO me'n of our times.~' He continued: "You knov' how We share the joy which greets with emotion the- resounding successes of present-day technicians and scientists whose achievements permit the harnessing of nature ill, ,a 'way which not long ago seemed to defy the liveliest imagination." ,

Such topics as the Laity, Religious Liberty, Mar l' i age and the Structure of Dioceses will be discussed, and as each resolution of the bishops is formulated and voted on, it will be reteased to the world through the I!jervices of a smooth-working I!nternational press corps. Elsewhere in The Anchor you will be given the top news stories of the Council and an analysis of their meaning.

Greatest by Far The current ecumenical counell is by far the largest, the best prepared for, the most widely heralded. the most enthusi?<:tically received of all general councils. . In a motu proprio issued almost on the eve of the meeting's opening, Pope John said," the coming ecumenical council by virtue of the number and variety of those who will' participate in its meetings evidently will be tIw greatest of the councils held by the Church so far." The council. has special and interesting fa c e t s seemingly without number. To mention only some: Never before, not even in the time of its empire, has Rome been the focal point of interest 1101' so many people in such ~attered and farflung places round the world. Modern Conveniences No council before ever had available to it electric lights, telephones, typewriters and so many other devices that people of today take for granted. What's more, loudspeakers make the voice of a speaker heard everywhere in the council hall, and electronic machines tabulate the ballots. This council is receiving far greater coverage from news media of every description than any previous council received. It is the first, of course, whose news is being reported by radio and television. It is only the second general eouncil in which bishops from the United States have taken part, yet it is estimated that these bishops constitute the second largest group from anyone nation. Only the bishops here from various parts of Italy are more numerous. A bench of five cardinals presided over the general congregations, or working sessions, of the First Vatican Council. At this council 10 cardinals from nine nations, including Francis Cardinal Spellman, Archbishop of New York, are taking turns presiding over the meetings at which the Pope is not present. Free of Interference This, it has been said, is the first council I in history to meet free of interference by any secular government. It is the first since the eight-century beiinning of the Papal States to

Walking before the Pope, the long procession wound its way down the Royal Stairs, led by the Crucifix and followed by the guards, the laymen and the ecclesiastics of the papal court. Behind them folowed the officials 'of the Vatican's courts, ministries. and offices; then the representations of Religious orders, the abbots, the bishops, archbishops, patriarch, cardinals and prince assistants at the papal throne-all in finery to befit the solemn event and following/the sign of their Saviour. F'ull Hour

The procession moved slowly through the great Bronze Doors and into St. Peter's Square, passing between two lines of the assembled diocesan and religious clergy of Rome. They marched through the huge throng in the square, chanting the fifth-century hymn: "Singular Virgin, make us meek and chaste." Those in the front of the procession carried the chant into the basilica though its central door where others, who had already taken their seats, took up the song and sent it ringing through the gilt and brilliantly lighted vaults. Passing through the porch of the basilica, the feet of the council Fathers trod over a meet under circumstances of complete separation of Church and State in Italy.

Focus·

Amid Good Will As the Second Vatican Council opens today in Rome, the impression' grows that it begins amid a maximum amount of good will. ' The new media have outdone themselves in providing coverage of the Council. It is to be hoped that liason men between the Council and the press realize the reporters" problems.. These are being .pressured by dead-lines and editors' demands for more copy. They respect accuracy and truthfulness. But they are being urged to transmit these with speed. While the aims of the Council and the press are not the same, still, it would be unthinkable in this age of communications for press coverage of the Council to break down either because the press would resort to irresponsible reporting or because of the indifference of Council officials to good press relations. .

The congratulations of the Diocese are extended' to the Sisters of the Holy Union of the Sacred Hearts as they. observe this week the seventy-fifth annh:~rsary of their arrival in the United States. .Their presence in this country and in this Diocese has contributed significantly to the spirIt of religion and . education. A . non-Catholic cQlumnist once remarked that from his observations the Catholic Sisters were the .last real ladies left in the country. Their whole decorum, he observed, . spoke of the true gentlewoman. . The Sisters of the Holy Union have surely exemplified this ideal. But they have done more. They have lived and labored to form Christ in their students by exemplifying Him in their lives. And they have provided their. students with educational proficiency in the secularscierices that has enabled. them to take their place with pride alongside 'students of other schools. Who, then, can measure the good that 004 haswoJ::ked through the Sisters over these seventy-five years? 1;0 the realm of religion and education, success is, markeq not by the number of lines of type in a Who's Who or a Dun and Bradstreet or' a roster of prominent citizens. It can be measured ultimately only by God Who sees the influence the Sisters have exerted on their students and through· these to countless families and individuals. . May the blessings, given and rec'eived, of these first seventy-five years be to the Sisters of .the. Holy Union as but a preview of things to come. .

Pope John Tells Reason for Visit To Loreto

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Thurs., Oct. 11, 1962

VATICAN CITY (NC) Vatican authorities opened St. Peter's basilica to allow 20,000 persons to attend a general audience at which Pope John spoke of his reasons for journeying in Our Lady's shrine at Loreto. The basilica had been closed to the public since Sept. 26 for fear of vandalism after two bomb attempts in less than three months. The church was not to be opened again until the start of the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council. A hundred Italian policemen stood guard along with 50 papal gendarmes during the audience. REV. JOHN P.DONNELLY The Pope told the people why he was visiting Loreto the nex,t day. The basilica at Loreto encloses the Holy House, which according to tradition is the Catho~;c home of Our Lady which was carried there from Nazareth by lBu~e(u.B angels.

Convert Doctor, Wife, Children Leave for Mission in Africa SUMMIT (NC)-Dr. Herbert Sorenson doesn't believe in halfway measures. That's why he is a Catholic-and also why he, his wife and their three children are on their way to Africa to serve as lay missionary volunteers. Dr. Sorenson and his wife, Doris Jean, a nurse, are members of Mission Doctors, founded three years ago in Los Angeles in connection with the Lay Mission Helpers Association. In August, they finished courses in theology, apologetics, missiology, culture and language under the direction of Msgr. Anthony Brouwers, Los Angeles director of the Society for the Propagation of the Faith and' founder of two mission groups. The Sorensons, after a brief

visit llome here iii New Jersey, left for the White Fathers Likuni Mission in Lilongwe, Nyasaland, a 'British protectorate on the east coast of central Africa. There is located a 20-year-old, 140-bed hospital which has had a visiting doctor only one day a week.

Simple Conclusion

Dr. Sorenson became a convert when he was 24 and a junior in Cornell Medical College. He explained: "It was a simple conclusion. If I believed in God and not in Christ, I had to be a Jew; if I believed in Christ I had to be a Catholic. "Whenever I tan into a problem in the Catholic religion, I found that centuries of thought had gone into it and the solution was logical," he continued.

Second Vatican Council Theme Of Debates and Di$cu$sicns In Dioc~san High $ciro@@~~

By Clement JJ. DowUnmlg

Ask Coyle's John Cabral or Dominican's Pauline Gagnon or Holy Family's Robert P~ini just what an Ecumenical Council is and why. The students of our twelve diocesan high schools have the answers. Reports indicate that adult Europeans are Guest speakers will include much more aware of and interested in the tremendous Sister Ann Bartholomew, Presi_ importance of the present dent of Emmanuel College; SisVatican Council than are Americans. Not so with scholars in the Fall River diocese who have been historically taught in ·the classrooms how such CQnclaves have had world-changing effects. Michael Faherty of the Attleboros' Bishop Feehan High reports that the Council is the theme of debates, forums, panels and discussion groups throughout Feehan. Homeroom projects and bulletin board displays concentrate on this vital theme. In Taunton at St. Mary High the senior class featured a panel discussion before a school assembly which highlighted the history of past councils and the purpose of this one. Questions from the underclassmen proved provocative and enlightening. Preparation for the Council has had the invaluable help of students' prayers' and sacrifices. Fall River's Dominican Academy girls offer each day of study and cooperation as their share in the Second Vatican Council, as well as participatmg in 'special services in their parish churches. All·boys Prevost High of Fall River has been running an interesting series on the CO\lncil in its colorful student .weekly "Maple Leaf" while the same city'S Mot. St. Mary's distributes informative literature to its girls. Not puzzled any more as to why secular newspapers are devoting so much space to the Ecumenical Council, diocesan students are hard at work at studies and special projects. Last Saturday Holy Family's Debating Club journeyed to the Univ. of Mass. Symposium on Foreign Trade.' Lectures on the European Common Mar',el were an excellent source of material for this topic is to be debated by the upcoming Narragansett League. Clad in their familiar blue caps and gowns, 4{) H.F. seniors will join with students from Feehan and the Mount next Sunday in a traditional annual pilgrimage to Mount St. Rita's in Cumberland, R.1. Purpose of the gathering is to petition Our Lady of Fatima for "Peace for all Nations". Hundreds of religious and lay people will also be in attendance. Emmanuel College in Boston will be the scene of a news conference on Sunday. Staff members of "Shacady", Sacred Hearts Academy ne.wspaper will participate in group discussions on the following publication problems: 1. "Tapping the Sources for Features." 2. "I Take My Editorial Pen in Hand."

Relief Agency' Aids Spain Flood Victims NEW YORK (NC) ...:.... The worldwide relief agency of U. S. Catholics has sent nearly 71.' tons of food supplies to _as~ist fl90d victims in the ·Barcelona province of Sp'ain. The report ot' the assistance was received here by Auxiliary Bishop Edward E. Swanstrom of New York, executive director of Catholic Relief Services-National Catholic Welfare Conference, in a cablegram sent by Henry 'Amiel, CRS-NCWC representative in Madrid. Amiel said that from its warehouse in Madrid the Catholic agency sent to Barcelona 20 tons of powdered milk, 19 tons of butter oil, 17 tons of rice, and 12 tons of noodles made from U. S. surplus flour. The CRS-NCWC representative is in Barcelona coordinating relief work with Catholic Charities of the diocese.

Sargent Shriver have welcomed this year's National Catholic Youth Week, which starts Sunday, Oct. 28. The President stated that "the need to reaffirm the reverence due to God and to our nation in public and private life is constantly increasing, and indeed merits the attention of all our young· people."

Writer S·tresses Dynamism, Of U.S.. Catholic· Chu'rch By

~ev.

Andrew M. Greeley·

Msgr. George G. Higgins has· been appointed to assist the work of the Second Vatican Council and· has asked Fr. Andrew M. Greeley to write this column while he is in Rome. Fr. Greeley is· well quaUfied. He has a doctorate in sociology from the 'Uniyersity of Chicago and is the author of three books: "The Church and the Suburbs"; "Strangers in the House"; and "Religion and the College Graduate." He has also written well over 59 magazine articles. At the present time, among many other !Juties, Fr. Greeley is editor of Apos'tolate (Catholic Action ~ournal). .

. It has been a grand and glorious season for self- criticism. The Commonweal symposium on the Council, the ~homas More-Rosary ,College talks, Robert Hoyt's article on "Freedom and Christian Responsibility" in Social Order, Michael Novak's "Catholic Church Confidential "series is. its tremendous dynamism in The New Rep ubI i c, which is producing changes at fantastic rate. . Thomas O'Dea's paper at the anItalmost is still fashionable tore~

meetings' of the American Sociological Association, the various statements 8rtd counterstatements by )aity' and hier',#chy in the :'"role of the lay 'man" debate all prove tha what Edward Duff has called' mas s masochism is not ye of fashion iliriong American Catholics. ~ .(0ne ·of the old competitors has deserted the lists, however; the editors of America' have dealt themselves out. of this round of self-criticism so' that the-yo might Jetter promot.: self&itiCism among A mer i can :~ews.) Good Thing : Undoubtedly self-criticism is Good Thing. It is surely a sign of the vigor and vitality of an organization that it is able to . generate self-criticism among its' htembers. If there were no complaints the organization would be .quite defunct. In fact, one wonders how a church that is afflicted with as many weaknesses as the critics would lead us to believe American CatholiCism is can possibly be alive enough' to generate such vigorous criticism. But if self-critiCism is'a Good Thing, it· does not follow that all its -manifestations are useful or relevant. One could agree with practically all the charges made by the' curre'nt crop of viewers - with - alarm and still doubt that they are presenting a balanced picture of American Catholicism. Now, of course, a social critic does not necessarily have to say everything -there is· to be said about an institution. But when his picture leaves out certain aspects of the institution which seem to be of overwhelming importance to its present state and future development, then the critic runs the risk of being accused of missing the point, or perhaps worse, of refusing to see the point.

Static View My major quarrel with the current self-criticism is that it takes a very static view of the American Church. It is. not especially difficult to see' things in the American Church that ar·e considerably less than per'fect; nor is it difficult to generate a fair amount of gloom about these weaknesses. One would think, however, that an observer would not have to be too perceptive to note the rapid. rate at which change is occurring. In fact, I should think that the most striking phenomenon about the American Church

peat hoary clic~s about the Catholic press - and especially the Diocesan press (as Professor O'Dea did at the Sociology meetings). Yet how can anyone look at the Catholic press of 15 years ago and the Catholic press of today and not be astonished by the rapiq development. . Dramatic Changes. The grow'th of the' meethlgs of Nation'al Liturgical .Conference from a few. score of outcasts' to thousands of clergy and laity, the spread of the specialized Catholic· Action Movements, the mushrooming of 'study institutes for . the clergy in the Summer . time, the beginnings of. lay mission' effort, the increasing numbers of graduates .of Catholic colleges who are going into the intellectual life, the Sister formation movement, the institutionalization of self - criticism in the Notre Dame study of Catholic education - if these do. not reveal dramatic social change processes, then one wonders what would. I am not afraid - of the selfcritics giving _aid and comfort to the enemy but I am concerned about their discouraging their own followers and indeed themselves. One cannot read through The Commonweal symposium, for example, and not come to the conclusion that desp'air would be a cheerful description of the attitude of most of the writers involved. (One excepts Msgr. Ellis whose historical vision EmabIes him to take a long range perspective) . Advises Vacation The American Church is a vast, complex, and sprawling organization. Some problems are more serious in certain localities than in others. There is reason to think that a few of the self-critics have fallen victim to the temptation to generalize from one section of the country to the whole country. The level of the optimism in Catholic literary circles might be raised considerably if a foundation would provide a week's vacation for the entire staff of The Commonweal in let us say, the Diocese of Okla~ 'homa City-Tulsa.

Three .Hungarian

Prelates Leave For Council VIENNA (NC) Hungarian Catholics filled' the Budapest basilica to overflowing for a solemn Mass on the eve of the' departure of Hungarian churchm'en to attend the ecumenical council, it was learned here. . Three Hungarian prelates, accompanied by six aides, left Budapest for Rome. They are Bishop Endre' Ham vas of Csanad, acting· chairman of the Hungarian Heirarchy; Bishop Sandor Kovacs of Szombathely, and Msgr. Pal Brezanoczy, Apostolic Administrator of the ArchdIocese of Eger. It was understood here to be the first time that Hungary's communist government has allowed a bishop to go to Rome in the 14. years since the arrest of Jozsef Cardinal Mindszenty, Primate of lfungary. The Cardinal, now 70, is residing in sanctuary in the U.S. Legation in Budapest, where he fled on Nov. 4, 1956, when Soviet t~ks were crushing the freedom fight.

The Mass on the eve of the delegation's departure for Rome was unheralded. But with the news' of it spreading simply by word of mouth, the basilica wa's filled more than an hour before Mass time. Hungarian government publicly announced. that the two bishops and' the administrator were going to Rome. It said also that the three had been received by Hungarian Deputy Premier Gyula Kallai to ':iscuss the trip to Rome. No particulars were given, but the government com~ munique did describe the atmosphere as cordial.

Stang Defeats Durfee, 26-8 Somerset-Bourne in 0-0 Tilt By Jack Kineavy Football people are beginning to regard with jaundiced eye these sunny, cloudless, midweek Autumn days which have for two successive weeks presaged' inclement settings for the gridiron sport here in New England. Last Saturday saw the postponement and in some instances outright beneficialovalue, there should be cancellation of most of the a plethora of football adonises schoolboy games that were walking the campuses of New carded. Many were rescheduled for Monday. Hardest hit at the gate by the for c e d postponement was the D u r fee _ Stang contest at Alumni Field, Fall River. In view of the I a r g e crowds t hat attended bot h Spartan games at Dartmouth and cognizant of the Hilltoppers strong patronage at home, ~'-..is had all the earmarks of a sellout, and then some. Bad they been able to get together on Sunday the SRO sign still would have been in evidence. However, officials of both schools wisely red-penciled their agreed-upon Sunday date when the weatherman refused to cooperate, leaving the field inundated. That left Monday as the only remaining time feasible for the schools to· meet what with other contractural commitments precluding another weekend date later in the season. Despite the obvious disadvantages involved, a surprisingly large throng turned out for the long-awaited clash which found the Spartans blitzing their way to a 20-0 first half lead and an eventual 26-8 victory. Coach Don Montle's Hilltoppers registered their lone score late in the fourth quarter after having turned in a most creditable second half effort against the explosive Parochials. Many InfractioDS We didn't keep statistics but it was apparent that both clubs' far exceeded their normal quota" of penalties per game. .This seems to be a rather consistent pattern for postponed games. Psychologically of course it's hard for a club'to stay "up': and the inactivity of a wet weekend serves to dull the sharpness of execution which n team is primed to display on Saturday. Yet, it was n fine ball game, cleanly played, hard fought.

We were particularly impressed with the linebacking of Durfee's Bob Klimka who at 6-1 190 pounds hits with reai authority. At any rate, the teams that played their postponed games on Monday had grand weather. Civilization has come too far to require that contests be staged under the conditions that some were played on Saturday. Rugged individualism be hanged.

Jim Gravel of Attleboro:

Fleet-Footed Left Halfback Excels With Holy Cross' Grid Combine By Lynn Kennedy Labeled the f res h maD team's "best running back last Fall," Attleboro's Jim Gravel figures to be a vital

cog in Holy Cross football plans the next few years. The personable Gravel came to Worcester well - recommended having been a four sports per~ former at Attleboro High and All Bristol County in both football and basketball. FOr the time being, however, Gravel may have to be patient in the wings, for he's operating out of the left half slot behind Brookline's "blur," the Cross's leading ground gainer, Tom Hennessey. Jim doesn't seem to mind. He figures he'll see plenty of action anyway, particulary on defense where he's a stickout. With speed and power plus, Gravel learned his football basics with Bill Madden and Jim Cassidy as a high schooler in Attleboro. Both _ will admit freely that he was the bellwether in the Jeweler attack. When Attleboro won (and it was often), more frequently than not it was Gravel who drove opponents'to distraction. Take the Coyle - Attleboro joust Gravel's senior year. He burst 70 yards off tackle and outside on the second play from scrimmage following the opening kickoff, and Coyle had had it for the afternoon. Up in North Attleboro (Attleboro's arch-rival), Gravel is a name synonomous with household pests, Thanksgiving Day variety. While Jim was wearing JIM GRAVEL Jeweler spangles, North never communicant. As for the golf, of the games he plays. They are enjoyed the holiday. In fad, that's something new.
