Foreign Mission Support Falls on United States "Go ye therefore into the whole world, and preach the Gospel to every creature." St. Mark 16 :15 Beloved in Christ, In the Providence of God, Our Blessed Lord became man, and walked the length and breadth of Palestine, teaching by word and example the way of true life. But Palestine is but a small corner of the earth, and Christ's preaching ministry was but a brief three years. He turned to the twelve apostles and commissioned them to carryon. And from their day to this the mission­ ary priest, sister and brother have gone to all naJtions' and every race bringing the light of true faith and the comfort of being cared for by those who. speak for Christ, and by the eternal Godhead. ' . Great moments in history ar~ tied in with apostolic work. .We think of St. Boniface for the German peoples, Cyril and Methodius for the Slavonic nations, Patrick for the Irish, Aidan for the English, Francis Xavier for the whole Orient, Peter Claver for the Africans 'kidnapped into slavery in the Americas. The development of our own country depended heavily on monies and missionaries sent from Europe, France and Austria especially. But times have changed considerably. The Christian world relies on U8 to carry on for the missions what others can hardly continue, due to internal troubles. Over the years, the Chureh in the Uni~ States has become more and more' mission-minded. Most of our re­ Turn to Page Six

VATICAN CITY (NC) The role of the laity in the Church is not only that of membership but also of the

"'personal responsibility for the oommon good," Patrick Cardinal O'Boyle of Washington said here. The cardinal preached at Mass commemorating the Year of Faith. Principal celebrant of the Mass outside the National Shrine ~ the' Immaculate Conception :was Archbishop Luigi Raimondi, Apostolic Delegate in the United states. Cardinal O'Boyle told the con­ gregation that the source of tl'uth is found in revelation but ~e search for truth is a "contin­ TlIing process."

This in short was the message Pope Paul VI had for approxi­ mately 2,000 laymen gathered in Rome for the Third World Con­ gress of the Lay Apostolate. He spoke at a specially concele­ brated Mass in St. Peter's basilica. The Pope referred frequently to the documents produced by the Second Vatican Council on the laity, which, he said, "has given the most fitting and rich­ est definition of the layman be­ longing to her; she has recog­ nized him as incorporated in Christ and as a sharer in the. priestly prophetic. royal function of Christ Himself.

Many of the "firsts" were due to the Bishop's firm intention to implement the Church's latest directives in the spirit of urgency and enthusiasm in which they were born. Other "firsts" sprung from the heart of the Bishop well aware and concerned with the living faith of his diocesans. Bishop Connolly was the first bishop of Fall River to take part in an ecumenical council. It was not something purely accidental for Bishop Connolly truly took part in thp Council. Each session saw the Bishop in Rome. At home, a list of "firsts" came from his personal participation in the Council. Liturgically, the Diocese moved forward with the participation pronouncements of Popes Pius XII and John XXIII. It climaxed as Bishop Connolly was one of the first bishops in the U.

"Current investigations into the causes of the recent riots here and in other - cities may provide valuable ,insights into racial harmony through study of Brazil's successes," he stated. "Much could be gained expand­ ing our analysis to include countries such as Brazil where integration has long been. a d'unctioning reality." Bishop Breitenbeck is auxili­ ary bishop in ,a city where a week of racial unrest brought death and destruction last July. He is also chairman of the sub­ committee for inter-American cooperation of the U.S. Bishops' Committee for Latin America, National Conference of Catholic Bishops. The bishop's ,suggestion was eontained in a statement issued in connection with' the Catholic Inter - American Cooperation Program (CICOP) 1968 conven.,. tion, scheduled Jan. 29 to 31 in St. Louis. "Our failure to' demonstrate the . Christian concept of the brotherhood of man is a topic of heated discussion throughout the underdeveloped world which looks to the Church for leader­ ship," Bishop Breitenbeck said. "We cannot afford to ignore pos,:, sible solutions to this critical problem simply because they may have been formulated out­ side the geographical boundaries of our country."

It Couldn 'I Be One of the oldest catch lines in the advertising business is-They said it couldn't be done. And then to show that it has been done. A dozen years ago, Bishop Connolly said that there would be new high schobls to serve Greater New Bedford and the Attleboros and Taunton and Fall River. And many people, thinking of the millions of dollars involved and the work this would entail and" the religious communities needed, saoid-or at least thought-it couldn't be done. The fourth of these high schools is being dedicated tomorrow. ' Bishop Stang High School, Bishop Feeh1in High School, Bishop Cassidy High School, and now - named at the re­ quest of the Jesu'its who will sta~f the school- Bishop Connolly High School are serving the young people of the diocese. It has been done. . What was the dream and the determination of one man ignited the enthusiasm of thousands and these' by their sacrifice of time and money have made possible four new high schools to prove that what couldn't be' done has been done. Bishop Connolly High School stands a magnificent c9mplex of buildings. But a school is more than buildings. It is a staff, and in the Jesuits the diocese is blessed with men of learning who bring to their dedication a tradition of excellence of four centuries. A school is students, and in Connolly High School are young men .whose choice of the school and whose encouragement by parents will lead to positions of leadership in matters temporal and. spiritual . in the world of tomorrow. . ' It is good that what couldn'~ be done-has been done.

In an age when people are used to asking where their

tax dollar goes-how it is divided up-it might be of in­ terest to see how the dollar given for the' missions is divided. Out of every dollar given to the missions, 35 cents goes to support the 823 needy dioceses of the missions. Twenty cents helps support the 42,500 young men studying for the priesthood with over 500 native vocations ordained last year. Twelve cents cares for the sick poor, the aged, the homeless and the orph~n.. Ten cents goes to schools of varying kinds. Five cents goes to Latin America where· such great emphasis in the Church is needed and biking place. Five cents goes to the churches of the Eastern rites. And 13 cents goes for churches~ chapels, training houses and student centers. . Here is a dollar that really goes to work. And all for the spread of the good news of Jesus Christ. The sad part is not that there are 12 million lepers in the world, but that $5 will buy medication for two of them -,-if there was $5 available. Ten dollars will support for a month one of the 30,000 needed catechists-but where is the $10? One hundred dollars will support one of the 300,000 missionaries serving the poor - but where is the $100? One thousand dollars will build a school for 800 of the one billion people in the world still illiterate, hut where is the $1000? Fifteen hundred dollars will give seminary training to one of the 5,000 young men refused admitt:ance to the seminary last year because there was no room-but where is the $1,500? Whatever is given to the mission in this coming Sun­ day's collection is given to one's fellow creatures for their welfare of body and soul. It should be given with the reminder of the words of George Bernard Shaw: "The worst sin towards our fellow creatures is not to hate them but to be indifferent to them. That is the essence of. inhumanity."

Overestomate Costs Off Busing lPupols TRENTON (NC) - Total cost of providing extended bus ser­ vice to students in New Jersey's private and parochial schools will come to about $7.3 million, Dr. Carl L. Marburger, state commissioner of education, said here. The cost is less than the $8 million which his department had estimated last Spring when financing the program became a matter of controversy at public hearings. Opponents of the school bus measure had esti­ mated that costs would range from' $30 million to $50 million. The $7.3 million figure in­ cludes about $2 million for the one-time expense Of buying new buses, Marburger said. He said the per pupil cost will run about $128 for the year. This figure would be about. $93 a year' with expenses for new buses sub­ tracted.

ter idea, of one of those thoughts which make" up the essence, principle and inherent demand of the Christian concept of life, history and the world. This master idea is the discovery of God's plan for the destinies of mankind." The Christian people is "iinbued with the missionary idea," he said. "The welfare of the missions is now a matter of uni-' versal concern; and the theological and practical teaching on the missions has been so fully and authoritatively illustrated by the Decree on the Church's Missionary Activity promulgated by the Second Vatican Council, that, today everyone "knows the nature' and importance of the missionary question. , Missionary work has not lost any of its importance today, even though it is meeting "fresh difficulties," he said. Among these are the questions being posed: "Now that the Gospel message has reached the ends of the earth,.is missionary work, properly so-called, not at an end? , "Is it not more difficult today than it was yesterday to preach in nations that are no longer primitive but self-conscious and jealous of their own culture? "Should we not perhaps think that God has also to save those who profess in good faith a rellgious belief other than the Catholic faith?

"And then, does the dialogue that today the Church wants to have with all forms of civiliza­ tion not slow down her prosly­ tizing and oblige her to respect the religious freedom of others?" Hence the Church's missionary . work calls for "fresh genero&­ ity," he said. "Before it can reach all men, the love of God needs the love of . men who consecrate themselves

to the salvation of their brethren.

This is the plan of Christianity;

it finds in the apostolate of the

hierarchy its specific manifesta­

tion and in the apostolate of 'the

. missionary deriving from th~s,

the best expression of its devel­ opment. "For that reason, brothers and children of our overbUl'dened dearly beloved Catholic ChUJ:ch, we should take part in Mission Sunday, reflecting on .the precise character and inherent demand of· missionary activity. "It develops under the influ­ ence of the love of Christ, it ex­ tends and spreads this love broadcast; it is a gift at once of great price and conferred with­ out cost, one that is even foolish (but with the foolishness of the . Crucified); it is a sacrifice ••• it is generosity"' •• Let us not stand back in indifference, doing nothing; let us be generous in­ stead" • "You already know th~se needs, just as we know yoUI' generous hearts."

Mission Burden on U. s. Continued from Page Two ligious communities have a foot and a foundation or more in areas where men and women live in poverty of body an? soul. Strangely enough conditions have worsened, de­ spIte skyrocketing prosperity all around us in the squalid ' disease-ridden ghettos of missionland. The lp.issionary has to be doctor and nurse,as well as teacher and preacher of the GQspel of Christ. The need is .so great that what with Papal Volunteers, medical "ser­ vices, medicines and the like, not to mention what is more important, the support, travel ,expenses of missionary g~oups and diocesan priest volunteer workers, we have to aIm at an ever expanding budget. So, I appeal once again for the work of Catholic Mis­ sionaries throughout the world. The Diocese has a splendid record in missionaries in fields afar. We certainly should wish to help our own. But actually every man and woman who dedicates his mind and heart and hand to serve Christ in the poor and unenlightened, is our own. Next Sunday, October 22nd, in all Churches and chapels of the Fall River Diocese, we give proof of our prayerful hope that Christ's Gospel be preached. We our­ selves are apostles in word and deed on the home-front. But our lives are comfortable indeed, compared to con­ ditions in missionla:nds. There the good missionary shares all the discomforts, even the misery of ·his flock. But he aims to lift up their eyes and hearts to the hope of better things HERE as well as hereafter. So be generous in his support. . Fai,thfully yours, in Christ, ,JAMES L. CONNOLLY Bishop of Fall' River


H~ed Hierarchy

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fan River-Thurs., Oct. 19, 1967

Continued from Page Three time she notices his special char­ acter, which is to be part of !1 secular member or citizen in the world, to engage in earthly pur­ suits, to follow a profession in the world, to have a family and devote himself in every field tp temporal pursuits and interests.'" Not only does the Church "'proclaim the dignity of the layman," the Pope said, but it does so by the fact that he is a Christian and as such is called on to be an apostle in the con­ temporary world. Siay With 'Il'raditnollll But at this point, the Pope said, an objection arises. "In fact, one may say that if the tasks en­ trusted to lay people in the apostolate are so vast should it" not be admitted that henceforth there are in the Church two parallel hierarchies, as it were­ two organizations existing side by side, the better to ensure the great work of sanctification and salvation of the world?" Answering his own question, the Pope continued: "This, however, would be to forget the structure of the Church as Christ wished it to be, by means of the diversity of ministries. Certainly the people of God, filled with graces and gifts, marching toward salvation, presents a magnificent spectacle. But does it follow that the peo­ ple of God are their own inter­ preters of God's words and min­ isters of His grace? That they can evolve religio\is teachings and directives, making abstrac­ tion of the faith which the Church professes with authority? Or that they can boldly turn aside from tradition and eman­ cipate themselves from the magisterium (teaching author­ ity)?"

-

Laymen Can Aid "Anyone who attempts to act without the hierarchy or against it in the field of the Father of the family could be compared to the branch whiCh atrophies because it is no longer connected with the stem which provides the sap. As history has shown, such a one would be only a trickle of water cutting itself off from the great mainstream and ending miserably by sinking into the sands." Union with the hierarchy and obedience to the structure of the Church, however, does not mean that "the Church wishes to bridle your generous inspira­ tions," the Pope went on. In­ stead the Church looks to the layman for "substantial aid for the good functioning of her in­ !ltitutions." Moreover the laity has a great role in the consecra­ tion of the world. "The World is your field of action. By vocation you are im­ mersed in it."

Frl) Cornellier Offers Experience

To Students of Connolly High

Rev. John G. Cornellier, S.J., the first principal of the Bishop Connolly High School for Boys, Fall River, was named to the position on May 19, 1966 by the Very Rev. John V. O'Connor, S.J., New England provincial for the Society of Jesus. Born in Lowell, the son 0'£ Maxime J. Cornellier and the late Regina Rattier Cornellier, the first Connolly High principal attended Boston College High School and following his grad­ uation in 1946 enter~d the Jesuit Novitiate in Shadowbrook. Upon receiving his Master's Degree from Boston College, he was assigned to Baghdad College in Iraq, one of the missions staffed by New England Jesuits. During his stay in the Middle East, he taught at the College and then studied Arabic at the Language House in' Baghdad, spending some time in Lebanon and Jerusalem. Father Cornellier returned to the United States to complete his theological studies and was ordained in 1959 in the Holy Spirit Chapel, Weston College, the Jesuit Seminary in Weston. In 1960, he received his Licentiate in Sacred Theology and then devoted a year to the study of Ascetical Theology at the Jesuit house in Pomfret Cen­

tel', Conn. Upon completion of his seminary training, Father Cornellier was assigned to the faculty of Chevrus High School, Portland, Me. While servittg at the Maine Jesuit School, he headed the Modern Language Department and as a member of the Maine Chapter of the A.A.T.F. and was very prominent in promoting the m;w aural-oral methods in teaching modern foreign langu­ ages. Father Cornellier was a pal1'­ ticipant in the NDEA program of French studies held at Rivier College, Nashua in 1963. During the summer of 1964, he attended the Overseas NDEA Institut~. sponsored jointly by the U.S. Office of Education and the Uni­ versity of Massachusetts, that was held in Arcachon, France. During the course of the Insti­ tute, he traveled extensively in France. During the first year of classes, Father Cornellier and other members of the faculty commuted from Round Hill Re­ treat House, So. Dartmouth, to St. William's Center, Fall River where the first freshman class followed their curriculum. The inconveniences of travel have ended and the principal to­ gether with his staff is residing in the faculty living quart~rs of the New Bishop Connolly High.

Spiritual Lafe Pope Paul expressed sorrow for the "secularization and lai­ eization" of the modern world, wh ich has even been promoted, "we say it with sorrow," by some Catholic writers "that the sacred character of places, of times and of persons should progressively be diminished and disappear." Lastly, the Pope urged his hearers to keep up and increase their spiritual life even though they are concerned with the world.

listening to the indulgenc;o preaching were "caught up with a false sense of security." He urged his bishop to be aware of his pastoral reponsi­ bility, to "oversee" the moraln of his flock. Luther, he pointed out, alsc sent the bishop a 1,500-wordl treatise on indulgences. Father Wicks described the essay as a "brilliant piece of theological analysis," compar­ able to the best Catholic writ­ ings on the subject.

PEORIA (NAC)-In the his­ tory of the Church there is ,no sadder might-have-been" than Martin Luther, a Catholic tholo­ gian told a group of Lutherans here. Father Jared Wicks, S.J., pro­ fessor of systema"tic theology at Bellarmine School of Theology, North Aurora, was the first speaker in a lecture series spon­ sored by Peoria area Lutheran Churches to mark the 450th an­ niversary of the Reformation. He said that when Luther correctly identified abuses in indulgences he went through proper channels by first writing his bishop on the matter. "This," Father Wicks said, "is precisely what a Catholic theologian should do when dis­ turbed." When he took this action Luther was not a revolutionary, the priest stressed, and "could have reformed the Church." Father Wicks said that Luther's letter to his bishop was "quite to the point, respectful but ur­ gent." He wrote that people

Changes in, the Ohutch-a theme almost unavoidable everywhere these days-we encountered when we stopped by the parish auditorium of a small Catholic church near our house. A swinging Mass, complete with guitar~strumming and folk-type singing? ' A group discussion on inner­ dow. Sometimes we grandchil­ city problems? An ex-nun dren would make the responses expounding her the 0 r i e s with her. She told us that rosary about religious training? Still-in nuns dressed like air-line stew­ ardesses?, A de­ bate on con­ troversial books or the right of p r i est s t 0 marry? An ecu­ menical gather­ ing? Guess again, Those t h i n g s wouldn't h a ve Ilurprised us at all. We've en';' eountered them over and over, wherever, it seems, two or more Catholics are lathered together· . What It Was

,

What we came upon wouldn't, have surprised anybody, before the first session of the Vatican Council in 1962, particularly in the month of October. You've guessed it: This group was saying the rosary. , The lady in the last row moved in to make room for us, never missing a word or a bead. Re­ sponses of the first decade of the Joyful Mysteries went on with their rhythmic cadence: "Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of ,our death." Pocketbook fumble unearthed no rosary, but fingers were made before beads anyway. so we joined in.· . The familiar repetition of the Paters and Aves, meditation on

the mysteries brought back

memories, 'some of them almost

forgotten, of a lifetime closely

associated with the rosary. It

, brought a twinge of c'ongcience,

too, that this particular form of

prayer had somehow slipped into

the category of only-now-and­

then practices. Changes Have Occurred Goodness knows, active parti­ eipation in the Mass, especially DOW that it is said in English, has become a vitalizing force in liturgical worship for the laity. We'd be the last to advocate re­ turn to the olden days when pi­ 'ous souls ,mouthed prayers of the rosary all through Mass, some­ times in an audible whisper, even during the sermon. Those were the days of sermons, before homilies took over. But for private prayer? And eommunity prayer? Earliest personal memory. of rosary devotion dates back to Grandma Tinley, who died when I was nine years old. She would "tell the beads" as:sh.e· sat in her rocking chair by 'a sunny 'win'"

meant "rose garden," named in honor of the Blessed Mother as

a rose, symbol of joy, Grandma's own name. Then there were the family rosaries said invariably every evening in October and May. at' our, house when we were chil­ dren, led by Dad or ]\iom. I liked that, until we'd come to the "Hail, Hoiy 'Queen" ending with its "banished children of Eve, mourning and. weeping in this valley of .tears" part. To my im­ mature mind, this didn't ,go with Grandma's teaching ~ of joyous prayer.

Bishop Leader in Council Renewal

Continued from Page Three was the first to establish regional high schools to come to the aid at parishes who were not able eo provide adequate secondary schooling for the youths because of limited resources. This was supplemented! with fhe establishment of the iirst Diocesan School Board which brought together clergy and laity Cl) interested and competent in educational a!1fairs. The first Diocesan Executive Board of the CGD mobilized qualified lay men and women from through­ Oillt the Diocese to study prob­ rems and solve them. The Teaching .Brothers and Sisters Committee brought to the parish and diocesan CCD the competence and devotion of the religious orders already llO ac­ tive in the Diocese. The naming of the Victoryknoll Sisters as official supervisors only strength off i cia 1 supervisors only strengthened both the' parish eenters and the Bishop's resolve in the education of youth in pu~ ]lic schools. Bishop Connolly was also the first to establish the Area Direc­ @ors, teacher-training clinics, a diocesan CCD headquarters, and a New England CCD Congress that for the first time embarked on an ecumenical endeavor to bring all Christian influence to bear on true education. Bishop Connolly's insistence on the best intellectual and reli­ gious aids available for the "exceptional child" can only give all a clear picture of the Church's solicitude for the han­ dicapped of any type. Ecumenlsm Long before it was "fashion­ able" the Bishop embarked on the road to Christian Unity forming the Diocesan Commis­ aion for Christian Unity even be­ I&re the Vatican Council had closed. The Interfaith Directives Iormed a solid basis for dialogue tlnd not so much established' a "unity" as founded the plans for future endeavors. Area wide dialogues were Iormed in the deaneries of the D i 0 c e s e. Interfaith serVIces brought religious and intellec­ tual leaders to the Diocese at the very beginning such as the ef­ Iorts on Martha's Vineyard and Hyannis. Interfaith choirs spread inspiration and solemnity to such great events as the episcopal eonsecration of Bishop Humberto S. Medeiros. Liturgy Lay participation was urged by the Bishop as soon as the Pope and/or the Council urged it. The vernacular was not so much permitted as it was hoped for "as soon as the texts are re­ ceived." The first evening priestly or­ dination, the first concelebrated ordination (following the new rites), the first concelebrated Holy Thursday and Christmas Masses were offered as soon as these were permitted by the authorized Church committees. As soon as it could be ar­ ll'anged, the Diocese's deacons began to do Summer work in parishes and hospitals of the Diocese thus strengthening the ministry of the young priests-to­ be and being an inspiration to the older priests and people' so well served by them. Masses illustrating the newer rites were offered by the Bishop himself or by his delegates in each area· of the Diocese. The Year of Faith brought the Bish­ _ and his Auxiliary to every corner of the Diocese. Organizations The establishment of a Priests' Senate, a Diocesan Pastoral Council, a Priests' Study Group all came into being at the order with the blessing of Bishop Connolly. The Bishop also made a fer­

.r

vent appeal forr the founding of Parish Councils in each parish of the Diocese, which would bring together the fervent and com­ petent priests. relil~ous and laity of elllch parish to strengthen their pastors with counsel and effi­ cient help. The founding of the "Anchor", weekly radio broadcasts and Sunday TV Masses all witness the Bishop's hope tha~ each may be his "personal representative" to the faithful, especially the bed-ridden. IX the Diocese or individual parishes and areas are not "firsts" in spreading a vital Christian participation in daily and· "worldly" life, it is not be­ cause Bishop James L. Connolly has not been willing to lead, to urge on, to point to aiId hope for a vibrant and lively Diocese of Fan RiveI'.

Years at St. Paul At the request of the Archbishop of St. Paul Minn., Bishop Daniel. Feehan, then Bishop of Fall River, permit­ ted three priests of the Fall River Diocese to go to St. Paul and help staff the. seminary there. Bishop Conno1l3', the late Rev. William O. Brady (he later suc­ ceeEled all the An:hbishop of S1­ Paul) and Rev. Francis J. Gilli­ gan (now a Protonotary Apos­ tolic in St. Paul) took up their new tasks at the young seminary. The present Bishop of Fall River, after having served as a curate at Our Lady of Lourdes Church, Wellfleet, had studied at Washigton, D. C." from 1924­ 1928. He then had won his doc­ torate in historical science at Louvain University in Belgium obtaining his degree "summa cum laude." Thus well-equipped, Bishop Bishop Connolly began to teach History of Spirituality, History of Philosophy, Educational The­ or~ and Practice at the Archdi­ ocesan major seminary. Eventually, the Most Reverend Bishop became rector of the minOI" and major seminaries and was instl'Umental in founding a free cancer hospital in the St. Paul Archdiocese. In 1945, his career in St. Paul came to an end when he was named Titlilar Bishop of Mylasa and Coadjutor with right of suc­ cession to the Bishop of Fall River (Bishop Cassidy). He re­ turned to Fall River and served as pastor of Sacred Heart Parish, Fall River, until May· 17, 1951 when he suc<:eeded: Bishop James E. Cassidy as Ordinary fOl' the Fall Ri vel' Diocese.

Begin Res1l'oration Of Old Mission SAN ANTONIO (NC)-The first phase of restoration of . Mission San Juan Capis~rano got underway here with signing of a $68.000 contract covering cost of rebuilding the friary. Father Balthasar Janacek, whose appointment as director of the SanAntonio archdiocese's old Spanish missions' was an­ nounced by Archbishop' Robert E. Lucey, said the contract calls for "raising the walls and re­ building the friary in an hls­ torically accurate manner and in keeping with the spirit of the mission at the time of its great­ est activity," which was between 1731 and 1794. Pointing out that San Juan is one of the five local ·missions, whose founding is the basis for San Antonio's 250th birthday celebration in 1968, Father Janacek said the restoration work is expected to be com­ pleted prior to the opening of HemisFairnext April.

Thurs., Oct. 19, 1967

In Phinppines

Roman Synod Continued from Page Three regional grouping of bishops) a technical commission on semi­ naries. !twas further moved·that such a commission include not only seminary rectors and pro­ fessors but also spiritual direc­ tors and laymen. Not all bishops welcomed the idea, however, with some re­ questing local liberty to answer local needs. A set list of impera­ tives might hinder what they

thought would be an adequate seminary formation. Minor seminaries were be­ lieved absolutely necessary by

some because of disorganized

family life or an atmosphere that

was not strongly Christian. The key suggestions and rec­ ommendations revolved around the ideas of maturity, discipline, liberty and sacrifice.

Mixed-Marriages Paolo Cardinal Marella pre­ sented the position paper- on mixed marriages. It posed three . important questions: Should canonical impediments of mixed religion (between a Catholic and a baptized non­ Catholic) and disparity of cult (between a Catholic and an un­ baptized person be suppressed? What is requited in order that, a mixed-marriage can be con­ tracted? This especially con­ cerned .the required promises. How can the gift of Faith be preserved for the Catholic party and the offspring? Should the canonical form of marriage be suppressed (the reo: quirement that a Catholic party may be validly married only be­ fore the local parish priest and two witnesses)? Could others validly "marry" a couple? Initial reactions were from eliminating all promises what­ ever and all restrictions in law and substituting instead a strong statement against mixed mar­ riages, to a defense of the pres.,. ent restrictions. Ease Law Further debate indicated that a good number of bishops favor the local authority's right·to dis­ pense from .the canonical· form in given circumstan«:es. No~mal­ ly, a priest would marry Catho­ lics or preside over mixed mar­ riages. However, the '.local au­ thority - not Rome - would. be able to allow exceptions. . , At this stage, however, there was no evidence for the drop­ ping of the general rule that a Catholic can be married validly only in the presence' of an au­ thorized Catholic priest.

. CINCINNATI (NC) - t:me place where vocations to the priesthood are plentiful is the Philippines, according to a Society of the Divine Word Brother just named vocatioD: director of the community there. Brother Ralph Felix, S.V.D., said here that Filipino priests are beginning to go out as mis-­ sionaries to such places as Indonesia, India and Taiwan. "Families in the Philippine

Islands have a great respect for the priesthood and the . religious life," Brother Felix said. "They consider it an honor

to have someone in their familY.

with a religious vocation."

Brother Felix said the CUP­ sillo movement has made strong Catholics out of many men whO had been apathetic about their rel.igion. .

Another element of the reli[i: . . ous in the Philippines is Die iiturgical renewal, he said. "We have full participation III the Mass now, and the people very much appreciate the ~ porlunity to hear the~r. language (Tagalog) and re­ spond to it, and to sing hymDt which they understand.

The bishop described faith as an irrevocable "total commit­ ment" to God. "'It is impossible for us to preserve and increase the life of faith," he said, "if we re­ strict it to the interior realms of our hearts while public life­ economics, politics, public opin­ ion-becomes the prey of god­ ~ philosophies and ideologies."

Plan to Publish Dutch Catechism Wn New York

NEW YORK (NO) - A 75,OOO-copy English edition of the controversial Dutch catechism will be published in October by the New York firm of Herder and Herder un­ der the title "A New Catechism: Catholic Faith for Adults." Originally carrying the im­ primatur of Bishop Robert F. Joyce of Burlington, Vt., the English translation will replace the bishop's withdrawn im­ primatur with a notation that the original Dutch text had the imprimatur of Bernard Cardinal Alfrink of Utrecht. Bishop Joyce, who had given his imprimatur because the book was printed in his diocese, with­ drew approval when the Dutch edition became involved in dis­ cussions between the Dutch bish­ ops and the Holy See. Refuses Ad "My decision," he explained, "was based on the fact that there was an agreement between the Holy See and the Dutch bishops that translations would not be published until changes could be incorporated. I withdrew my im­ primatur out of loyalty to the Holy See." The bishop added that be would give his imprimatur to a planned future edition of the book including the revisions adopted by the Dutch hirerachy and the Vatican. Father Augustine Hennessy, C.P., editor of The Sign maga­ zine, also announced that the magazine would not accept ad­ vertising for the catechism. He explained that carrying adver­ tising for a book is "tantamount to approval." He added: "Therefore, I wouldn't want to approve ac­ ceptance of advertising for the book until I'm sure that those who have the right to approve dogmatic matters have passed judgment on it."

COLUMBUS (NC)-A golden jubilee observance of the ap" paritions of the Blessed Virgin at Fatima, Portugal, will take place here Sunday, Nov. 12. The observance will clim::m a round-the-world peace pil~ grimage of the "Pilgrim Virgin." statue of Our Lady of Fatim:::l, led by Bishop Joao Vcnuncio of Fatima. The" tour, sponsored by th0 Fatima Golden Jubilee Com~ mission of the Blue Army ex Our Lady of Fatima, wi th hNd~ quarters at Washington, N.

Asserts Money Problems Cause Enrollment Drop

Methodist P'ublisher B\l:!lcks School Drive

I"ANSING (NC) - Prob­ lems in meeting the soaring cost of education were blam­ ed, directly and indirectly, for the greatest drop in Catholic school enrollment· In the diocese of Lansing in more than 20 years. In a report to the diocesan board of education, Father Wil­ liam F. Meyers, diocesan super­ intendent of education, disclosed that the 1967-68 enrollment is 35,841-a drop of 2,297 from last year's enrollment of 38,138. "It is tragic that, at a time when our whole education pro­ gram is rapidly improving, we have to deny this number of children a Catholic education," Dr. Edward J. Hartmann, board member from Kalamazoo" said'. William Houseal, an attorney from St. Joseph, Mich., who is II board member, said children in public schools this year, who were in Catholic schools last year , "win add a burden of more than one million dollars" to the public tax debt for edu­ cation. Houseal lamented that '''the United States is the only western country that does not provide equitable support for non-public schools. But the real fact is we are public schools - public schools where prayers can be said. "Anyone who had doubts about our Catholic schools performing a public service worthy of con­ sideration ought to look at this bill of more than one million dollars to be presented to the taxpayers as a result of this en­ rollment drop." Another board member called Houseal's estimate "conserva­ tive." Based on a per-pupil cost of $663.08 in the Lansing public school system, the total cost of educating Catholic children in public schools this year, who were in Catholic schools last year, will be $1,354,l84.76, it was stated. .

Assemblyman Joseph Kottler, committee chairman, said the dismissals and long controversy

which followed appear' to be within the committee's jurisdiction because St. John's, although privately operated, is chartered by the state Board of Regents.

the United Federation .of College Teachers.

It will double the school's capacity to 16 rooms and add other facilioties. Raymond E. Dix, Methodist publisher of the Wooster Daily Record, told St. Mary parish­ ioners that by building the new addition "you are doing a real service to the community; all of us realize its importance." "As taxpayers, you help sup­ port the public schools; so Why shouldn't we help you? Your new school offers a definite tax advantage for the entire com­ munity. The people of Wooster are with you in this campaign," he said, The board of directors of the Wooster Chamber of Commerce also has endorsed the campaign, Father Thomas F.

Maryland Eyes Church-State Issue Warily

S)emJOlfror D~fend$ ~j9J!rots ~[)'@~[T@m5

ANNAPOLIS (NC) Maryl'and's constitutional eonvention cast a wary eye at the controversial issue of church-state-school relationships -and was greeted by the wary gaze of public school officials. The ultimate result, when the atate's new convention is com­ pleted late this year, may be a standoff, with the issue thrown to the U. S. Supreme Court to decide. ' The convention's General Pro­ visions Committee asked educa­ tors: "Should the constitution guarantee to all children, re­ gardless of type of school attend­ ed, the basic services available to public school children? Instead of the rock-hard an­ swer of "No, because," the dele­ gates heard "No, but" from sev­ eral witnesses who were perhaps thinking of New York state's convention and its strong ap­ proval of such measures. Dr. John Carnahan, acting pres­ ident of the state's School Super­ intendents' Association, urged the convention ~ stay away from the subject and await "a broad-based decision" by the U. S. Supreme Court. Robert Y. Dubel, associate sec­ retary of the Maryland Teachers Association, asked that the con­ vention "remain silent" on the matter. Thomas Pullen, retired state school superintendent and a del­ egate to the constitutional con­ vention, answered "No." Nations which subsidize private schools, he maintained, have inferior public schools. Pullen, howeveJr, was the only witness to give an unequivocal answer to the question. The others, while apparently opposed to the idea of aid to pupils in all schools, appeared to acknowl­ edge the fact that strong senti­ ment for it does exist. And some, like Dubel, appear­ ed to be eager to take the onus of a decision off their backs. State officials, he said, should want a ruling from the U. S. Supreme Court "for the nation."

College President EMMITSBURG (NC) - Msgr. Hugh J. Phillips, 59, was elected the 19th president of Mount St. Mary's College here in Maryland, the second oldest Catholic col­ lege in the nation, founded in 1808.

In front of these spaces are the curved circulation and service desks. The remaining eight segments are open, to provide stack space and reading room areas. The outer walls are covE!red with wood bookshelving, to which will be added other double-faced steel bookstacks along the radii toward the center, under the laminated beams. In the spaces between these shelves will be reading tables and the study carrels. Low bookshelves for current periodicals, and a few easy chairs for comfortable reading, will occupy the center around the column. Estimated book storage cap­ acity is in the neighborhood of 25,000, and 'estimated seating capacity about 100.

JERSEY CITY (NC) - U.S. Sen. Edward oM.

He said the white community cannot use the "excesses" oil Negroes as an excuse "for not doing what has to be done." He declared: "We cannot in good conscience expect the Negro to conform at once to our own standards."

Radio Proglfoms

For Youth ANNAPOLIS (NC) - Re­ ligious radio programming must be of an ecumenical nature to appeal to today's

e

youth, Father Donald F. X. CormoIly told a workshop on pastoral ministries here. The need for such an appeal Is evidenced, he said, by the

fact that nearly one-half of the population of the United States is under 23 years old. Father Connolly is coordinator for the National Catholic Office for Radio and Television.

Father McInnes said the pro- . gram represents a new design in education for private schools in Connecticut, and will utilite six summer sessions and six regular academic years "to provide an open door to mature students with an adventuresome spirit, adaptability, and perseverence to pursue an unusually creative program."

"To date," Father Connolly said, "the media has supplied teenagers and their younger brothers and sisters only with recreational programming. Very little attention or respect is given to the .real life problems oonfronting the next generation. "Rather than attempting to d.evelop the personalities of our youth, we have given them panacea solutions, acting as though 'Hollywood-style end­ ings and a laugh solve the mysteries of life. . Dynamic Idealists "We have done little to break file passive listening habit, while active participation and selec­ tive viewing are looming as the essential ingredients of the family's approach to reading, viewing and listening." Father Connolly urged religi­ ous broadcasters to be the leaders in proving that. tOday's youth "are not inarticulate people obsessed with their own imperfections, but are really dynamic idealists with a hard­ core knowledge of the real world of poverty, hunger, war and­ disease."

Preble is Q shining beacon in the Muscato forward wall, opening gaps in the opposing line for his backfield aces to romp through for one sizeable gain after another. And, when the other club is in possession of the ball, Preble is a familiar site in the opposing club's back­ field, thwarting plays before they begin to achieve their plotted patterns. Coach George Hemond's grid­ sters, living up to advance biD­ ing, moved to the top rung of the Bristol County flag race when they toppled previously unbeat­ en Durfee High of Fall River, 20-14, last Saturday. Bourne of the Capeway Con­ ference had its anxious moments before it eked out a 21-20 win over Medfield of the Clover Val­ ley Conference, thereby length­ ening its undefeated SKein. Costly Failures The Hemond Herringtowners are scheduled for a non-league tilt this weekend when they head north to meet Stoughton of the Hockomock League at the latter's field while Bourne clashes in a Capeway tussle with Old Rochester at the latter's Mattapoisett field. Mansfield High, which stunned Canton, 36-0, in a Hockomock affair last weekend, will be at home this Saturday when it tangles with Case High of the Narrangansett League. The Swansea Cardinals' in­ ability to convert the extra point after first and fourth period touchdowns resulted in their 14-12 loss to Westboro in their last outing. Case had its chance to gain a deadlock when it pushed across its secOnd touch­ down with less than two minutes of play remaining, but, the two­ point try failed. New Bedford H:igh, nosed out 12-6 by Arlington in Greater Boston League play last week­ end, will be looking for its first victory of the season at Water­ town next Saturday. . Sta~e ScoJring .heal Playing its poorest brand of

and its leading State scorer Bill Breen. Norton will take a two­ and-two record to the island this coming weekend when it invades Martha's Vineyard. The latter was a 12-0 loser at the hands of Nantucket in its last outing. Provincetown, which was top­ pled from the undefeated ranks by Manchester last weekend, 28-14, will be idle this coming Saturday. Dave Creighton and Carl Gon­ salves who piloted Lawrence High to a 14-0 victory over Somerset of the Narry loop last Saturday, hope to provide the momentum which will keep Falmouth on the winning trail this coming Saturday when the Lawrencemen play Dennis-Yar­ mouth in a Capeway contest at the latter's field. The D-Y grid­ sters bested Barnstable, 14-7, in last Saturday's outing. Son Embarrasses Father Barnstable has another rough assignment this coming weekend when, it clashes with Fairhaven at the latter's field. Humiliated 26-8 by Old Roch­ ester last weekend, Dartmouth is scheduled for a non-league af­ fair this Saturday when it in­ vades Somerset. Coach Kevin Cadieux found the Dartmouth loss even more embarrassing as he watched his son Steve, quar­ terback the Mattapoisett club to its overwhelming victory. The other three Narry teams are also scheduled for non-league action this coming Saturday. Seekonk, which routed Lin­ eoln High of Rhode Island, 30-14, last Saturday, now is readying its attack for King Philip Re­ gional of Wrentham which was pasted by Oliver Ames of North Easton last Saturday. Hemond Eyes Coyle Case of Swansea, which must be drilling extensively in the point after touchdown play, has a tough assignment in Mansfield, at the latter's field, on next Saturday. Outclassed 33-6 by Foxboro last weekend, Dighton-Rehoboth is pointing for its next encoun­ ter which takes it to Norfolk County where the regionals will engage Westwood. Taunton, with three league victories in four successful starts in the current season, may be sitting alone atop the Bristol County loop but it is keeping its eye trained on its cross-city rival, Msgr. Coyle High which nosed out & 14-13 win over North Attleboro, its second triumph in as many league games. Rise to Occasion Taunton's 20-141: winning effort over Durfee High of Fall River was not wholly unexpected al­ though it did come as a surprise to many closely associated with the schoolboys. Coach Hemond's charges have let it be known since the season's opening whis­ tle that they are bent upon an­ nexing the county title and they lived up to their own prognosti­ catipns as they stayed out ahead of a gallant Durfee team most of the game. While Taunton is playing its non-league encounter this week­ end, Durfee will be battling to stay close to the top of the race when it travels to Attleboro to

Two-hundred pounds of dyna­

mite, stacked solidly on a 5-11 frame, best describes Roger Lacoste of New Bedford, a line­ backer at Holy Cross College. A former Bishop Stang High School fullback. Lacoste was converted to a linebacker as a freshman at Holy Cross after an injury limited his running prow­ ess and the move by coach Car­ lin Lynch proved beneficial to' the Crusaders stopper unit. Lacoste, who spent a year at Suffield (Conn.) Academy after his graduation from Starig and before entering Holy Cross, was faced with a near impossible task of breaking into the Cru­ saders starting defensive lineup this season as 10 starters were returning to the team. Earned Promotion His outstanding play, during spot service assignments, in the first two games, earned Roger a starting berth against Colgate and the New Bedford youth hopes to continue the role. A sophomore and 20-years old, Lacoste is a pre-med major and hopes to become a doctor when his studies are completed. Foot­ ball helps, Roger is on full schol­ arship, which will help immeas­ urably toward financing his ambition. The son of Mr. and Mrs. Rene G. Lacoste of 60 Bullard Street, New Bedford, Roger is a mem­ ber of St. Anthony's Parish and was a player on his church's baseball team in the Catholic Youth Organization League. Was AII-BCL Back His parents feel that Lynch, former Stang coach, is the prime reason Roger, chose Holy Cross after graduating with an out­ standing athletic and aca~emic record at Suffield, noting that four major colleges sought his football potential. The former All-Bristol County League fullback is described as a dedicated worker, who is very determined and powerful. A quiet, clean-cut youth, Roger continually strives to stay in peak physical condition. Lacoste's football started at Stang after his graduation from St. Anthony's Grammar School in New Bedford. In 1963 and 1964 Roger was the Spartans starting fullback and as a senior was honored by all area presses, including an honorable mention as an All-State fullback. oppose Bishop Feehan High, • 14-0 winner over Rindge Tech of Cambridge last weekend. Coach Jim Lanagan's Coyle lads will be at home next Satur­ day for another league tussle when they take on Coach Jim Cassidy's Attleboro Blue and White eleven. With Dick Hulko leading the way, Attleboro smothered New Bedford Voca­ tional, 35-12, last weekend. Back iin Action Canton of the Hockomock League, overpowered by Mans­ field last Saturday will supply the opposition for North Attle­ boro, at the latter's field, this weekend. Coach Art Post's North club is more than anxious to get back on the winning trail after its one-po'int loss to Coyle of Taunton. Coach Charley Connell's Bish­ op Stang High team, which rested last weekend, will enter­ tainthe lowly Vokes of the Whaling City this coming Sat­ urday.

ROGER LACOSTE

The Holy Cross gridder went on to Suffield, leading the Acad­ emy to its first winning season since 1951. Lacoste in his final game for Suffield, scored three touchdowns, gained 274 yards and had 24 points during the first half. He played only de­

fense in the second half. As a Holy' Cross freshman, La­ coste was the !Itartlng fullback, but was injured early and finally inserted as a linebacker when HC met Boston College Frosh. Roger made 90 per cent of the tackles in the game and was a linebacker to stay. This season, the Fall River Diocesan footballer was deter­ mined to make a first team var­ sity berth, but again an injury during the Summer curtailed his playing time and Lacoste is just back in peak c(mditlon.

One of Seven Roger will start on the kickoff team Saturday as he cUd last week and will again be at line­ backer in Holy Cross' quest fOIl' a winning season. During the Summer months. Lacoste toils for the State at Horseneck Beach and also works

three nights a week at Uniol1 Hospital in Fall River, a good place for a boy who intends W! become a doctor. Roger is the second of seVeD children. Lorraine, now a work­ ing girl, is older. Katherine is aD honor roll student at St. .An­ thony's High, Marianne and Doris are grammar school crnlJ= dren. Roger has a brothei? Matthew and the youngest lli the Lacoste clan is John, a p1<e= primary student, who alreem;y thinks athletics.
