WASHINGTON (NC)-HoU88 Speaker John W. McCormack has been named recipient of the 1963 Gibbons Medal, highest honor of the Alumni Associatioll of the Catholic University ot. America. The veteran MassachusettB legislator will be' presented the medal, named for James Card' nal Gibbons, a founder of the university, at a banquet here on Saturday, Nov. 2 climaxin, homecoming ceremonies. His selection was announced by Francis P. McQuade, presi dent of the alumni association, who said the medal is bestowed for "distinguished and merito rious service either to the United States of America, the Catholie Church or the Catholic Univer sity of America." Expect %,000 Previous recipients include President Kennedy and J. Edgar Hoover, FBI director. Last year, Supreme Knight Luke E. Hart of the Knights of Columbus got it. More than 2,000 alumni and guests are expected fpr the pre -entation which will be one highlight of university obse"," anees marking its 75th year..
"Going therefore, teach ye all nations the things I have commanded you." Beloved in Christ, It is sad to reflect that after all the centuries so many men. and women have not so much as heard of Christ. Africa is still a dark continent waiting for the light Our Lord commissioned the Apostles to bring. The thickly popu lated continent of Asia has less than five percent that call themselves Christian. And there the birth .rate far exceeds the number of converts made each year. So it could seem to be a losing process. Yet Our Lord's com mandment still holds, and valiant men and WOmen give their talents and their lives to bring to those that sit in darkness the knowledge of God's great love and the re deeming graces of Christ.
Each year, at this time, we seek support for mission aries that brave all trails, and go into far flung fields to teach and to lift up the hopes and sustain the efforts of men seeking to lift themselves above privations and sick ness into & better way of life. The Society for the 'Propa gation of the Faith is accountable for support, not alone for many American men and women, priests, sisters and brothers, and lay apostles too, but for zealous apostles from every Christian race and clime. We all do milch for our own. But OUnl is still a Catholic Church with world, interests and responsibilities. So that what we do in aiding ,the missionary should be ealeulated in the knowledge that there are thousands of missionaries that depend on 118 more than on any other country, and hundreds of milliona Beedy .in body and 8001 that look confidently to Ameriea for help. Another feature &f our Mission Sunday Collection it! that it lends important aid to the Home Missions in the South and Southwest of the Uaited States. Your Bishop has often been urged to have the Diocese ()f Fall :River adopt a diocese, to have a parish sponsor a mission f}arisb, or to assume responsibility for the construction of a hospi tal, a clinic, a seminary, here in America 01' abroad. How could one pos!'libly do that with a collection that amounts to about twenty cents a year, per person in the Fall River Diocese?

The decentralized state of Catholic education has been a frequent topic among Catholic educators in recent months. Msgr.

Out of Focus "Looking back into history," he said, "we may be discomfited by the fact that when we had less money, fewer Catholics and when great sacrifices were called for, we seemed to do better than we are doing at present."

"Are we fearful of even a larger step of statewide or even. national planning? And how do we really feel about sectional and national consideration of our problems?

WASHINGTON (NC)-An ungraded high school? El ementary level courses taught only by specialists? Less stress on formal doctrinal instruction? Twenty Catholic educators, with the aid of outside experts, are looking at such questions in a deadly serious project whose out project is concentrating' on reli come could affect mightily gion, English, foreign languages, mathematics, science and social the structure of Catholic Eld studielt.
PROVIDENCE (NC) - A total of 7,256 textbooks have been requested by 4,271 pupils under Rhode Island's new program of lending tax purchased texts to nonpublic school children. Edward P. Wilcox, associate state commissioner of education for research and planning, des cribed the total of r~ests as "much more modest fEian anti cipated." The new law provides that an individual private school pupil . can apply to the local public school board for the loan of state-approved t ext boo k s in science, mathematics and modern foreign languages. A State Department of Educa tion spokesman estimated the cost this year at about $25,000. Both local communities and the state will share the expense of acquiring the books. Requests for books must be made by individual students. The Catholic school system and other private schools have carefully avoided any mass re questing of books in line with suggestions from framers of the law that its constitutionality is more certain if pupils alone are directly involved.

When asked what his most fearful thoughts ,were on his famous orbital flight around· the earth, John Glenn laughingly remarked that it was the realization that every 'part of his craft had been built by the lowest bidder. Recent "revelations indicate that Glenn was not joking. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has charged that shoddy workmanship in the space industry has resulted in sonie truly fearful mistakes. One space capsule, for example, had 720 things wrong with it when examined at Cape Canaveral. On the six man ned flights this country has tried so far, there was an average of 10 malfunctions or failures. Back-up systems and the. skill of the astronauts counter balanced the errors. But should they have existed in'the first place? Perhaps Cardinal Sirj of Genoa put his finger on the matter when he spoke a short while ago to a management 'conference in this country and urged leaders of industry to let their workers feel creative. The employee should not ,9nly know his own job but should be shown its relation to the whole, its importance to the entire product, its relevance to the human beings who will use it. A man who feels that he is simply a cog in a machine has littIe pride of, workmanship. A man who is just an ele ment in a production line is .not, overElnthusiastic for per fection. But a worker who feels creative, who under.stands ' the importance "of his work, be it ever so minor, is going to put ,his best into what he is doing. The product he works on ,will be superior, and he him 8elf will benefit richly from the knowledge of his own iin-' portance in what is being done and his own superiority to what is being produced. , It is this awareness that Pope Paul, speaking while still Cardinal Archbishop of Milan, called upon factory work ers to have. This is the attit!1de that they must have and must consecrate to' God, he'said. And the factories and pro , duction lines of the Space Age will not be inferior to the, cathedrals of the Ages .of Faith in making men realize ' their importance in the .world and their value to their fellow men and to God.

Conducting the program will , be Rev. Walter A. Sullivan, CYO Diocesan Director and Fall Rivei' area director and Henry Gillet, CYO president for New England and the Fan River area. Mrs. Michael J.

By Mary Tinley Daly 'To paraphase: Oh, to ,be a freshman now that Fall is here!

world." For" 1'1 or 18 years they have been emerging from the realm of childhood, shielded to a greater or lesser degree by par ents, by teachers. Last year, all seniors in high school, they were pretty big stuff. They had reached the top of their area of activity. They could go out on dates, they could drive the car. As "college material" they were doing well in school, else, they would not be college freshmen in these highly competitive times. Now, on any campus, the freshman class abounds in last year's "star~': the high school valedictorian fro m Western High finds himself sitting in class with perhaps 10 other valedictorians, a couple of Merit Sch<>larship finalists and others who had reached the top in local
circles. As in' any other all-star
cast, the shake-down begins all
over again. Nobody is going to "make" ,. freshman study, "make" 'a freshman gel to meals regularly, even go to bed oJ; get up on, schedule. 'The library is waiting, books are available, an enticing array of extra-curricular activi ties, including social, are to be had for the asking. The fate of Mr. or Miss Fresh man is in his 'Ol" her, hand&-at least for the first 90 days. This is where the real "grow 'lng' up" process sets in--eventu~ ally dividing' the students from the ex-'students.
,Bars Use of faciliti~s For Teaching Religion SAN FRANCISCO (N C ) Off-campus prganizations may not use Stanford University Mcilities for teaching religious subjects, Wallace Sterling, ,uni versity president, has ruled. , The steering committee of the University 'Mculty recommended unanimously refusal of • ~ quest by Hillel Foundation for use of class space for night e<>urses in Jewish history and the Hebrew language, Sterling said. In his refusal Sterling noted: "It, ha~ always been the policy of the university to insist that formal instruction on the campus be given only by persons holding university' appointments. This applies to, all fields."

Alabama Pastor Clarifies Story On Segregation
·Thurs., Oct. 17, 1963
Church's Future In Latin America Rests With Laity i
SELMA (NC) - The pas tor of the Catholic church here said that if Negroes were denied admittance to
NEW ARK (NC) - A! missioner vis i tin g here stressed his conviction that the future of the Church in
his church, as charged in a local paper, it was done without hill knowledge. Father Thomas G. Lorigan made the statement after the Selma Times-Journal said in a front page story (Sept. 30) that Negroes were denied admission to the Church of the Assump tion on Sunday, Sept. 29. Father Lori,gan learned after the newspaper story appeared that some parishioners had or ganized a committee to keep Negroes out of the church. The next Sunday, Oct. 6, Father Lorigan found two white parishioners standing outside the church. When he asked what they were doing there, they re plied: "Just waiting." He told them either to enter the church for Mass or to go home. Corrects Misunderstandint: In his statement, Father Lor igan said he "would lil<:e to cor rect any misunderstanding that might arise from a news item in the Selma-Times Journal of Monday; Sept. SO," stating that some Negroes were denied ad- mission to Assumption church. "The pastor of the Church of the Assumption emphasizes the teaching of the Catholic Church regarding the dignity of all men imd 'tQ.eJr equality, before God," Father Lorigan said. "If a~ CatholiCs were denied admissi6n to the Church of the Assumption on Sunday, it .was without the knowledge, of the pastor and the eongregation. ' "It ,would be mostregrettabIe to see the House of God become an aren'a for those who wished w prove their racial equality racial superiority," he said.
Latin America rests with la~ men. Father Vincent J. Prestera, a priest of the Newark archdio cese, is back for a brief vacation from Tegucigalpa, Honduras, where he is pastor of a parish served by two other priests of the archdiocese. "The Faith is lost in Latin America unless laymen play an active role in the Church as re sponsible agents, not as puppets with the priests pulling the strings; not as clerks, but as real true apostles who have a specific mission in the world," he said. "There is no essential difference between the apostolate of the layman and that of the priest- the difference is in their func tion." By Spring, he expects to have a layman preaching from the pulpit of Holy Family church. FATHERS' CLUB OFFICERS: Newly-elected officers of the Coyle High Fathers' The laymen is Jesus Gonza,lez, Club for 1963-64 are, left to ril~ht, Corresponding SecretaJ:y Leo DeMello; Recording Sec director of the apostolate to the Spanish-speaking in Chicago, :retary James B.

Sayre, Jr., Dean of the Washing ton Cathedral of the Protestant Episcopal church, contrasted the power of God's love with the weakness of, humanly built "castles and fortresses," a re ference to personal protective attitudes. "We Christians have built our castles, too, and I'm not very proud of most of them, mine no more than yours," he told the girls. "Yet here came this man, with the simplicity of his peasant faith, with the wondrous grace of God writ upon his every act, and known by his words - but most of all by the love in his heart .:.-. and somehow he pene trated all the massive communi cation media of tlie world, the papers, the TV, the crowds, the formalities, lill the rest, and en tered every one of your hearts, end mine, and those of every body, else I know who cares at all ~r the Lord," he said.

Becomes Mental Ca.se
Sudden eclipse, imminent des titution, bewilderment as to the cause of these, torment Flax. Aiid so do the doubts and the profound insecurity of soul
which now shake him.
He'tries desperately to revive his old attitudes, to whip up his old powers of supposed creativ ity. But there is no way out. He breaks down. At the end, he is a mental case, sunk in impene trable apathy. Whose is the guilt for this'!' Can it all be laid to Flax him self? The priest-editor seems to think 'so. True, he eneouraged Flax to go on with his writing "because I thought it was an au thentic "spiritual expression." But he lias changed his mind. His severe judgment is, "It's just that if yoU: use sacred things wrongly it's sacrilege, and you pay for it. These thingS aren't toys to play with. We believe in theC)bjective seriousness of a~
tions."
Guilt Distributed
Flax himself, early in the struggle, indicts his Catholic ed ucation. "They've got these rules against becoming a manj you see'!' You mustn't develop inde pendent judgment, because that'. pride. You mustn't be honest, because that doesn't square with the old prudentia. And you mustn"; .have lUIY kind of expe,.. r~ence, because .experience 1$ ,an occasion of sin." . ,TtJ,e guilt, it., seems, cannot be e~actly ,.attributed" but must be W~de~y ilistributed.

Urges Educators Bring Ecumenism Into Schools

Urges U.S.· Irish· Joint Resea·rch BOSTON ·(NC)-Some method

president said here.
Dr. Eamonn de Valera, profes
sor of obstetrics and gynecology
at University College in Dublin,
who spoke at the lOth anniver

U. S. and Ireland join in a re

of population which he termed
"one of the most urgent prob

Dr. de Valera stressed that be was talking about finding a method to enable family plan-· ning in a way that would be "completely compatible with the Catholic ethic." . . Gives Tw'R~ . He said Ireland is especially qualified for such research for two reasonS--:because it is pre dominantly a Catholic country . and practices the Catholic creed strictly regarding parenthood and marriage, and because Irish medicine has long· distinguished itself in the fields of obstetrictl and gynecology. Dr. de.Valera said his country ·has not sufficient money to un dertake . such research and sug gested the United States tie-in.
Missioners to Open

SHINYANGA (NC)-To help flIl the need, for typists and trained clerical help in this young country's advancing busi ness economy, U. S. missioners plan to open here the first Catholic commercial school in Tanganyika. The school, to be built in the parish of Maryknoll Father Alan A. Smidlein, M.M., of Yonkers, N. Y., will be staffed by Mary knoll Sisters. At present, the country has only two commercial schools, both run by the government. One is located in the capital city of Dar es Salaam and the other is in Mwanza, on the coast of Lake Victoria.

The rest are being cared for in foster homes and institutions in 96 dioceses throughout the coun try. "There have been remarkably few problems," Msgr. Walsh continued. "In the thousands of children we've dealt with, there have been fewer than 25 juvenile court cases." He also said the record of· the Cuban exile colony in Miami has been excellent. "The crime rate is very low, much lower thah tne community average. The juven ile rate is less than half of the American rate." . Unusual Msgr. Walsh said this is un usual in view of the great num ber of children living under the supervision of ·friends or rela tives only. He said the children "have arrived· unaccompanied because their parents have sent them to tne U. S. to avoid communist in doctrination In the schools of Cuba." "This shows the tremendous concern that Cuban parents have had to protect the Faith of their children," he stated. ''They are willing to send their 'children Into exile and stay In Cuba them selves. This is tantamount to putting up a flag Baying they are anti-Castro. Th~ir willingnes~ to make this sacrifice is a lesson to us."

. ST. LOUIS (NC)-The Missig.; .ippi riverfront· Church of st. Louis IX, King of France, the 'Old Cathedral'· of· th~s arChdio.: eese, has been designated a .minor basilica, the 15th in the nation. The 12!}-year-old structure was ODee' the mother church of a diocese that embracetI more than half of the continental United States and is the site of the founding In 1845 of the S~. Vm. cent de ·Paul Society. The special'dignity of a minor basilica was decreed formally in 1961 by Pope John' xXIII, but announcement of the honor was delayed until architectural res toration of the historic shrine was virtually completed. Central attraetion The basilica will be one of the central attractions of the multi million dollar Jefferson National Memorial· to open next year In connection with the bicentennial of St. Louis. Itt is expected to, attract an estimated. 3,000,000 visitors annually. ' The memorial will have ,as its central feature a curve of stain less steel that will soar 630 feet above the riverfront project. VisitOl's to the top of this monu ment will look directly down on the Old Cathedral. The honor of minor basilica Ie assigned to certain churches be cause of their antiquity, dignity, historical importance or signifi cance . as centers of worship. They enjoy certain ceremonial privileges and are given sym bolic ornamentation.

Nuns Are Greatest Rea lists:; Critics, Big Escape Artists By Joseph T. McGloin, S.J. If the neighborhood beauty parlor is today's greateS'l agency, the "men's i'oom" on a train has to be the greatest philosophical forum. Here entire philosophies of life are expounded, with a general aura of wisdom belying the surroundings.

this poor man's Aristotle had
Dever met a nun in his life.
On the other hand, I had met .veral nuns, and had even had, a passing acquaintance with a few of them. Since they had never impressed me as escape artists, I pondered this sage's words more than somewhat. The first thing that occurred to me was that if someone wants to escape life, they can do it in marriage as well as in a convent. It didn't seem to me that it would have to be the life so much as the person. Lookin~ for Something Obviously, I thought, these DUns give up something, so they must be looking for something ill return. That's why any reas onable person sacrifices anything _ to get somethin~, either for himself or for someone else. Not enJ.y that, but he expects to get tit least as much out of it as he's living. Maybe more. So what do nuns give up, and what do they expect to get out ell it? From this bleacher seat, it looks like they give up quite a few things dear to a woman's nature. They take vows (prom hJes to God) of poverty, chastity and obedience, by which they live up their own possessions, their own family and their own will. They give up other things, too -nice clothes, pretty hair-des, cosmetics, idle gossip over the back fence, their own gadgets and the useless collections of junk all women consider of major importance. They seem, 88 a matter of fact, to give up about 50 to 80 per cent more than priests give up. Students by CoercioD So if they give up all these things (and it already looks like the "escape" thesis is about as likely as burning the raft to es cape drowning), then the next question would logically seem to be: What's their racket? Wbat do they get out of it? Well, they. get to live in what they call "community," a blinch 01. women living together. Ask MY gal from a girls' boarding college and she'll tell YGuthat this, all by itself, can get a bit monotonous and even trying OR occasion. At least there aren.'t many women who would natu rally want to substitute this sOrt of community life for a life with their own husband and children.

BRIDGEPORT (NC) - The president of the new Sacred lIeart University here called for an end to "negative thinking" about Catholic education. William E., Conley, president of the new university staffed by laymen, urged "total commit ment" on the part of teachers and parents to the well being of Catholic schools. "Complacency and content ment can only lead to stagna tion," Conley warned in a key note address to more than 1,000 educators attending the 10th an nual Bridgeport diocesan teach ers' institute. He described the U.S: Catho lic school system as a "pheno menon unequaled in any 'coun try" and said the need for it is "greater today than at any time iD our history."
U.S. Catholic grade school en rollments rose 171 per cent 111 the last decade and Catholic high school enrollment increased 174 per cent, he noted. Now, he added, colleges must be prepared for '''the largest college-age group in history." Among the changes which he said are needed in Catholic edu cation Conley listed centraliza tion on, the diocesan level of teacher licensing and assignment and of financial support 01. schools. He said variations in the situ ation from parish 'to parish rule out school financing On the pclrish level. Instead, he said, there should be, a diocesan edu cation equalization fund te guarantee the "minimum essen tials" in education for eada parish.

CINCINNATI (NC) - From the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico, thousands of people e10lle their day with night prayers oHered via radio in union with students at Mount St. Mary's Seminary here. To mark the 10th anniversary • f the program, a special 15 minute broadcast is scheduled by
Oppose' Catholic Building Lease' CELINA (NC) - A suit has been filed here seeking an in junction to end the leasing of a school building owned by a Catholic parish in nearby Fort Recovery to the public school ~stem.
The suit was filed in Mercer Country Common Pleas Court by Jesse Moore of Fort Re covery. He is supp<>rted by the Ohio Free Schools. Association and the Protestants and Other Americans United for' Separa ti()n of Church and State. . Agents Control Target of the suit is the 99:" year lease of a building owned by Mary Help of Christiana parish, Fort Recovery,to the Southwest Local School District. Moore's suit alleges the lease arrangement, common in'several parts of this heavily Catholic region, has given .control of- the building to "agents of the Roman Catholic Church." Moore also alleges the school is sectarian and contends that transportation of children to and fr<>m it on tax':'paid school buses is illegal. '. The Ohio group backing his suit is headed by Dr. G. Weir Hartman, a Columbus, Ohio, minister who is area director of the Ohio Council of Churches. The group's self-described pur pose is to protect public schools from being dominated by. 8ec tarian groups.
radio station WLW Sunday lit 11:45 P.M. The regular prayer program b broadcast at 11 :55 every night by WLW, which ic powerful enough to beam the divine mee Il8ge into Canada and. FloriM, and a8 far east and west .. Maine and Kansas. Faculty and studentsreeonl the prayers, hymns, and com mentary in advance in the semi nary chapel. In the course of the more than 3,600 broadcasts, the seminarianll have kept in mind the fact that many of their listeners are DOt Catholics. 'Fine Broadcast' "Ten years of ecumenism," was one seminarian's summary of the project. He cited a note· received at the seminary from a Methodist minister in West Virginia, thanking the student~ for ''your fine broadcast'~ and asking for a prayer booklet. A Wisconsin woman wrote: "Although my husband and I are not Catholics, we listen to your night prayers program and pray along with you each night." The program began in 1953 with a 10 - minute morning prayer broadcast directly from the seminary chapel. Two yeaN later it was changed to a five minute night prayer program. ~

John J. Wright _as an "urgent necessity." The Bishop of Pittsburgh stressed that there is "another side to the argument" that more Catholic colleges should nat be established because they frag ment the overall effort. He said the small colleges can be an answer to the "mass pro duction" of big institutions and the weakening of the relation ship between pupil and teacher. "Colleges of every kind, in cluding small colleges, are mul tiplying all over the United States,' including people and es pecially smalI people. "We are faced at one and the same time with a multiplication of people and with a mult'iplica tion of the services needed by people, above all, growing peo ple. In the face of this need, mul tiplied colleges are a necessity. "In the light of what is hap pening to mass production col leges and the education they in evitably provide, small colleges are an urgen~ necessity." Bishop Wright then took DQte f1f a syndicated column which appeared in his diocese's news paper, the Pittsburgh Catholic. The author opposed establish ment of more Catholic colleges on the ground that they pro duced a further fragmentation of the American Catholic educa tional effort. The prelate said that "we would be fools if we didn't study with care the article's premise, intentions and conclusions," but he told his audience that there is "another side.'"
