Earlier the Pope and Patriarch had met on "neu tral ground" in Jerusalem. Then, last July, Pope Paul visited the Patriarch in his own See of Istanbul, Turkey. On arrival from Zurich, Switzerland, after having met with many patriarchs in their own sees, the Patriarch was received at the airport by Cardinals Eugene Tisserant, dean of the College of Cardinals; Amleto Cicognani, Papal Secre tary of State; Augustin Bea, head of the Secretariat for the Promotion of Christian Unity. Also there were Archbishops Giovanni Benelli, substitute for ordinary ecclesiastical affairs in the Papal Secretariat of State, and Agostino Casaroli, secretary for extraordinary ecclesiastical affairs; and Bishop Jan Wille brands, secretary of the Chris tian Unity Secretariat. The Patriarch was escorted to the St. John Tower in the Vati can where he will use the papal apartments there built by John XXIII in a search for privacy and meditation.

HE REIGNS FOREVER: Sunday, Oct. 29, is the Feast of Christ the King. Through out the psalter runs the theme of Yahweh as the great King, the true King of Israel. Many of the psalms refer to the King-Messiah to come. Though Christ was Prophet, Priest and King from .the time of His incarnation, He did not exercise the fullness of his Kingship until the day of His glorification when the Father lifted Him up and seated Him at His right hand. Here he reigns forever. "And of his kingdom there will be DO end," NC Photo. .

HARRISBURG (NC). The Pennsylvania Catholic Conference (PCC), organ ization of ,this state's Cath olic bishops, issued a statement praising an action by the U. S. Supreme Court and calling on Gov. Raymond P. Shafer to re lease a bill which. would provide aid to youngsters in parochial and private schools. The PCC hailed the Supreme Court's refusal to review a Pennsylvania law requiring pub lic bus transportation of non public school pupils as a "great victory for freedom of choice in education." But it said Gov. Shafe-r should Hfurther advance" such freedom by permitting House Bill 1136, currently being held in commit tee, to be brought to the floor for a vote. The bill would establish a sec ular authority to "purchase" the secular education of pupils in non-public schools. It has been endorsed by Citizens for Educa tional Freedom and by the PCC, but Gov. Shafer has so far re 'fused to support it--or any other specific measure to aid' the schools. The latest plea by the bishops . was issued at the conclusion of a special meeting called by Bish op George L. Leech of Harris burg, PCC chairman. In attend ance were all members of. the Ptc board, officially represent ing the Cath<;>lic Church in the state's eight diocest's. Only PracticaD Means "As a matter of our public"re sponsibility, we reaffirm our total support for H,B. 1136," the ,PCC statement said. "That bill would provide a measure of public funding for non-religious, purely public in terest items of instruction ren dered in the non-public schools of the commonwealth. . "W,ebelleve that (it) provides the only practical means where- . by Pennsylvania's non-public schools will be enallIed to con tinue to cender theil' recognized public service," tho statement continued. "We believe that H.B. 1136 will aid public education by helping to prevent the large scale movement of non-public school pupils' into the already burdened public schools.

Urge Coo'peration Atlanta Prelates Stress· I,~volvement in Poverty' Programs ATLANTA CNC)-Archbishop Paul J. Hallinan and Auxiliary Bishop Joseph L. Bernardin of Atlanta have urged Catholics to cooperate actively with poverty programs being carried out here under both Church and govern ment auspices. "Financial generosity, as im portant as it it, cannot substitute entirely for personal involve ment," the prelates declared. "We must overcome our 'check book charity' mentality; we must gj.ve of ()ursel\les as' well as our g,oods." The message to AUanta Cath olics was contained in a pastoral letter, "Servant Church-Servant People." In it, the prelates said that parishes should permit their fa cilities to be' used fur programs to: aid the' POOl!; and revealed that archdiocesan charity programs are' undergoll1g a re~evaluation "to make sure they are truly serving the needs as they exist today." "In this task of evaluating and planning, all segments of the Church are involved - bishops, priest's, Religious and laymen,'" they asserted. Archbishop· Hallinan and Bish op Bernardin also noted that last year the' Atlanta lay congress and synod committed the arch.. diocese to "an important. role in alleviating human suffering.

CHICAGO (NC) -The world famous Paulist Choir, 70-voice male choral group, has dissolved as an indirect result of changes in the Church. The choir has been unable to rind a successor for Father Eu g,me F. O'Malley, rccently re tired director, who headed the choir since 1928. Father James F. Cunningham, pastor of Old S1. Mary's Church here, announced the decision. He said that the choir had bcen trained to sing in Latin and had only one English Mass in its repertoire. He also said that the idea of the choir secms incompatible with that of participation in the Mass by the entire congregation. When the choir sings a Mass, he explained, the congregation merely listens. There is no place for the liturgical participation called for in Vatican Council II decisions. By having a Latin - Mass on alternate Sundays, Father Cun ningham said: "I feel we were not acting in accord with the mind of the Church, which is to have a Mass participated in by the congregation. We were having a concert Mass."

Instruction Classes
Now ,that schools have resumed their classes,'all the parishes of the Diocel3e have begun their religious instruc tion classes for those attending public schools. Sisters, priests, seminaries and zealous lay persons have prepared their clas13es with true concern for these children's spiritual welfare. All that remains is for the youngsters to come to class on Sunday or Friday or Monday or whatever day works out best in the parish. . And here is the difficulty. How to convince children of the importance of spending an hour a week learning their religion in a formal systematic way when their class mates and playmates are playing ball or roller skating or flying kites? The answer seems to be that children can not be expected to arrive at the proper answer for them selves. They cannot appreciate the value of learning their, religion. The answer, of co~es, lies in the parents. They must exercise their parental authority and insist that their sons and daughters attend, catechism classes or discussion clubs or whatever program the parishes supply for the religious education of children attending public schools. The parents must further realize that by doing this they are not helping the parish. On the contrary, theirs is the first obligation to see to the complete spiritual train ing of the children. The parishes are helping them' to ful fill this most solemn obligation to which Almighty God will hold them in- strict account. If the children are attending Mass and the sacraments regularly, they need religious instruction to give them, in the words of St. Paul, "reason for the faith that it is them." For they soon reach the stage when they begin to ques
tion the practices that they have been attending to all along, and unless they have the answers to why they wor ship God and should attend Mass, then the practices them selves will be, at best, just formalism and, at worst, ne glected completely. This -goes not only for children attending the elemen tary grades but for those in the high 'school years. There is a strange idea that 'entering high school absolves a , young man or woman :from the obligation, and . privilege of learning religion. This is an idea in which many par-' ents concur. If there is any age group that needs to con templaJte and think through and turn over the great truths <Yf our faith it is the high school group. Children are 'get ting away from home allld all that home means, they are beginning to assert themselves and their own views on things, they are entering into a wider circle of places and acquaintances, the opportunities to question values an,d principles that used to be taken for granted ,are expanding. We are not afraid of young Catholics "going out into the world." We are fearful, and their parents should be also, of their facing newaspeets of life withou-tsolidly-founded religious, and moral conviction~, without standards . and values rooted, in ,knowleqge and loyal acceptance. Nor does the receptIon of Confirmation signal the end of religious instruction. If anything, this sacrament· is an added reason and incentive and obligation for young people to be mature Catholcs not only by the dedication of Confirmation but' by the corresponding knowledge of the truths of the faith and courage in living these out in daily life. All of which adds up to this-those atteI).ding public schools should be wise enough to attend religious instruc tion classes to' learn what heritage of the faith is theirs. ,A,nd the parents must cooperate to see that this is done.
CYO Week
'Sunday marks the beginning of Catholic Youth Week. At this time it would be most, fitting for adults, to con centrate on the postive, the good, that is undeniably pres ent in 97% of the young men and women of the nation who quietly do what they should, and stop dramatizing the . three per cent who deserve the label "delinquent."

T ®@~~®~~o, ~@~f99@~~Drw~~Dfr~ces MILWAUKEE (NC)-Teachers must form and guide young people through Christian principles so that they can. act responsibly in life, Archbishop William E. Cousins told delegates to the annual Milwaukee archdiocesan teach ers institute. Speaking on to overcome the almost impos ·the convention theme, "The sible task facing your commu Role of Guidance,in Catholic nities today. were it not for the ·Education," at Mass at St. feeling that there is thought John cathedral, he said: "The theme you have chosen concerns yourselves with the task of guid ance and perhaps in this we find· the true meaning of Christian education." , The archbishop said in com paring standards there must be consideration for such objectives 'as proper curriculum; confidence ,in faculties, adequate texts and modern facilities. ' Most Im))ortant · "But," he ~dded, "if you con tent yourselves with just this ,then you have overlooked your most important task - that of making life revolve, around Christ." . Archbishop Cousins said he did not know of any time in history when there was a need for greater emphasis on guidance in religion and education. He reminded the nuns, priests and, lay teachers that education is directed not only to the intellect but also to the will. "The mere gathering of details can provide infonnation," he said, "but if education is to reach fulfillment there must be some way in which students can be aided in the use of this irifonna ti~n.
"If he (the student) is called on to take action; then the will is called into the picture. Cath;" olic education is directed to the whole'man and therefore we do not neglect his physical being in the world of which he is part," he added. Need DiredioD ,Archbishop Cousins urged the teachers to view their students in their place in the competitive world. He said students cannot be provided with the mere pres entation of factual data but must be given direction in the course of the preparation. Pointing out the value of home life in the formation of the child, .he said: "In education it' becomes the task of the school to build on that foundation which is partially formed. There is no reason for you dedicated women
given to character-normal con duct, prayer and personal' re sponsibility-which are all part of God's plan." The archbishop cited the prin ciple of public education, the separation of Church and State, which does not permit religi01l8 'concepts to enter 'into the' clasS room. .Follow Christ's TeaehlD~ "For this. reason you are re sponsible in that very field. You are not prevented from introduc ing religion, or associathig that child to God. It is part of your task to develop the child along the paths of Christ's teachings," he said. "Catholic education cannot be second rate 010 010 010 You don't talk a ,youth into conviction. A child .develops this in the normal course of development." Archbishop, Cousins told the 'teachers to ask themse:hres whether they as individuals are presenting Christ together with secular education. ."A realization of my own Hie is that Lam a teacher and there fore direct minds of others," be said. "A child is more than ,8 mind-he's an individual called upon to act responsibly. "If we don't form him we, ·put into the world a useless perSon. ' Formation \of the. whole 'person must be your task and continu~ ing goal. You carry your respon sibility from the cla~sroom into the chapel· and into the homes 010 • 010 and' as long as a child re inains in your influence he's 'your responsibility, the arch bishop said.

Rabbi Alvin Fine, formerly all Temple Emanue-El in San FraJliot cisco, and now a professor dIr humanities at San FranciseQ State College, spoke on "JudaJl) Traditions of Charity" to 30Q delegates to the society's natiOJlio! al convention. The rabbi said the Jewish con cept of charity is based on the Hebrew word "Zedakh," justice. while in Christian tradition ifi is based on the root word "lov~lIII! He said that in Hebraic tradi tion there are two elements ail charity that must appear to the recipient of the charity: dutY, and loving kindness, the second of which is a higher form of 11 charitable age. Rabbi Fine said the Book ex!! Leviticus especially stresses the right of the poor to charity, here emphasizing justice.
Community Responsibility He explained that Jewislli tradition distinguishes between: per son a 1 and institutional charity and stresses that each is important. "Charity cannot just be left to individual acts," the rabbi said, "because the communitiV ha,s ,a primary moral respon~ bility to organize and admini9 tel' charitable works." Rabbi Fine said that Rabbinlll tradition distinguishes betweea the hOn,estly poor man and the vagrant, but teaches that when in doubt, it is better to give to a vagrant than to deprive a maD who is honestly poor. The rabbi showed some ilia patience with the attitude CIfI ,those who would leave tbe destitute to "pick themselves up by their own bootstraps" , "Before you suggest that • man do this," he said, "mall;. sure he has a pair of boots." VVork Together In conclusion, the rabbi R affirmed the need for all chari'" able agencies to work together to meet the "staggering burdens Of human need." A similar theme was sounded by Msgr. John S. Cummins, chairman of the Ecumenical Commission for the Oakland diocese. Not only is interdenomina t ion a 1 cooperation betweea: Christian aid societi!'!s in order, Msgr. Cummins .explained, but also g.reater cooperation wl1ih community programs. He suggested that each SL Vincent de Paul Conference should have a liaison man with the local Office of Economic Opportunity and other - co... 'mimity organizations fightuC poverty. "All of this represents not • destruction of the society . . its expansion," he stated.

Co,nvocation of 'The Girls' Triggers Vast Preparation By :Mary Tinley Daly There's something about hostessing a ladies' luncheon ifllat is totally different from all other kinds of entertaining. ~ting the family up, breakfasted and out on "ladies' day" always seems particularly"-complicated. Then there's the ~hirlwind cleanup of the but of the way. Magazines must house, finishing touches to be sorted and the old ones dining table and food. No pitched. You'd be surprised· how matter how m u c h time much magazine reading the fam i)'ou've spent readying the house, glaring gaps appear at the last moment: an un noticed spot on the rug, pictures askew. There's usually uncer tainty as to that new recipe you meant to tryout on the family first, but didn't. As St. Mark :writes, at such times you "bring hither the fatted calf," in this instance . a . super-complicated
recipe calling for ingredients un available at· your ordinary su permarket and .that You pro.b ably won't' use again until next "adies' day."

"boss· and his wife" 8tratum, and· you take the thing in stride, trotting out tried and true menus like roast beef and· finishing up .with apple pie and eheese. At our house, this always elicits from the Head of the House his .favorite couplet: "Each night when I undress me, I get down on my knees and ask the Lord to bless me with apple pie and cheese:" If the house is in, reasonably good order, you light the .livi ng room with low-burning lamps, the dining tabie with candles and enjoy the evening as much as, you hope, ~he guests are enjoy ing it. But, for a ladies' luncheon, it's an all-out deal. "Now who, in heaven's nam.e, is going to prowl through the medicine chest?" complains the Head of the House when we whisk away his shaving equip ment, replace the gnarled tooth- ' paste tube with a fat new one. There is one ladies' luncheon,' though, which we look forwljlrd to eagerly every 18 months when it's, our turn to entertain "the girls," a group all of whose members attended the same col lege. Goodness knows, there's no pushing of the panic button when this bunch convenes. They, eouldn't care less if we served peanut butter and jelly, had the· ironing board set up and D month's mending in our bed~ .oom.

By Joseph and Marilyn Roderick J uS't before .Jason was bom two years ago my' wife was given a recipe for husk-tomato jam.

harvesting.
I have alway's enjoyed the sweet honeyike flavor of those little fruits. When I was only five or six years old, our next door neighbor kepl a section of ber garden in strawberry toma toes and she had a constant companion when the fruit If.'ipened. My children enjoy them now and forage around the garden looking for the fallen Ifruit. 'rhe plants grow wild in our garden, springing up here ond there at random.

If pou can locate seed in a catalog (we have checked and two of CIte major seed distributors do arry seed under husk tomato) • rder for use in the Spring. The seed may be started just as you would any annual, on a window en- coldframe would give it an early start, and then plants may be transplanted outside after the last frost date. Our friend suggests that the hybrid varieties which can be purchased 'produce larger fruit, but are less likely to go to seed than the wild varieties found in native gardens. His advice is to forage around someone's garden in the Spring and claim One or two plants for your garden. Once started, they will eontinue to produce year after year.

The long hot (or cold) Summer is quickly forgotten as our world becomes a palette of erimson, gold and yellow.

Roadside stands simply sing with the orange tones of pump kins, the golden notes of squash aDd Indian corn, and the c:rim-
countryside at the time of year. Generally we stop at one of our favorite roadside stands and
purchase pumpkins for the chil

This mystery goes on year after year and foolishly we still keep buying pumpkins. We never see them go, never hear a sound, but suddenly they're just not there any more.

EMMITSBURG (NC)-Auxil iary Bishop Edward J. Herrmann of Washington denounced two extreme views which he said are producing a "crisis of faith" in the Church in an address to the alumni association of Mt. St. Mary's College here in Maryland. The vicar general of the Washington archdiocese was the recipient of Mt. St. Mary's Brute Medal which is awarded annually to an alumnus for out standing achievement. He told the alumni that at one extreme are those who will not accept the renewal advocated by Vatican n and at the other are those who wish to scrap every thing prior to the council and formulate a completely new set of Christian principles. "I look upon these two posi tions as the absurdity of intran sigence and a presumptive charism - one says retreat, the other says revolution. I still hold to the old philosophical dictum 'virtue takes the middle course,''' he said. What is needed, the bishOp added, is the bringing 'of the' ex tremes together "through calm," faithful ad pray,erful communi cation with God. to "

Humphrey Says' Inadeq~ate
Education Factor in Riots
bishop Karl J. Alter presided in the new Convention-Exposition .Center which drew leading edu cators and civic officials from Ohio and the nation. Vic e President Humphrey blamed grossly inadequate edu~ cation in slum' area schools as a major factor in the poverty and despair that have led to riots in cities. The special. opportunity of Catholic schools to help meet this need, he noted, arises from the fact that "many of your schools are in the inner city where deficiencies in education are most acute." Unique Position "You, the leaders of your com munities, and governments at all levels can cooperat~ to keep these schools open;" the.

"You can offer healthy compe, tition for our public schools, the kind of competition and, I might add, freedom of choice--that is the lifeblood of a pluralistic society," he stressed. Future l"attern Tbe Vice President described the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 as "the m0 st revolutionary break through" in recent U. E. educa tional history. He said it provides additional services for 8.3 mil lion disadvantaged children "no matter whether they attended public, private or parochial schools." But the federal legislation is important also, he continued., "because of the spirit in which it was possed, and the precedent
which it has set for the- future."
He recalled he had seen "good ,bills for federal aid to education blocked year after year by in transigent attitudes on Church State relations, and by state and local interests who feared fed eral interference in their tradi'. tional responsibilities." , Grow and Flourish But the legislation was passed when the people and Congress "realized that this country-if it wished to grow and flourish had better start mawing the best possible use of all its educational

Five Step Plan He suggested five steps toward "making education work for the millions of American youngsters who need it most": 1) "We have to stop locking students out of our schools fu the SUlllmers, on weekends and in the evenings. In the context of our present needs, the nine month school year and the six hour school day make no sense." He described this ,as the "most important" step. 2) "We have to be sure school leads to something-a good job or college. For the ghetto young ster, it cannot be just one more dead end street." 3) "We have to prevent drop- , outs * * * Our society cannot stand to let them faiL" 4). "We have to insist on qual ~ty, in, our, ,schools !ldeQ.ua~ basic training and up-to-date re fresher courses for our teachers - modem laboratories and teaching aids-specialized facil ities for children who need them." ,5) "Our country must be will-' jng to, pay for education in pro portion to its value for society." He said only five per cent of the, national income goes to public and private elementary and sec ondary education. "America spends half as much on just alcohol and tobacco. Our investment in education is a scant investment when we are talking about the human :re sources upon which the future strength and prosperity of our nation depend." He called for "full support for the education measures still pending before the Congress."

Advises Catholic:: Schools Become Leaders in Educating Poor NEW YORK (NC) - A priest advocated here that' Catholic schools become leaders in edu cating the urban poor by innova tion, experimentation and coura geous adaptation. Father Joseph P. Fitzpatrick, S.J., professor of· sociology at Fordham University, said the private Catholic system has flexibility that no public system can ever have. This allows for new ideas to be put into effect almost overnight, he said. Add to this the resources of mobile personnel and there are opportunities to experiment with ways of making education rele vant to Negroes and Puerto Ricans of urban ghettos, he said. Develop Models Speaking to the Regional Teachers Conference of the New York archdiocese, he said the Catholic school system, using its special assets, can "develop the models that could plot the path" for public schools to follow as that system strives to meet the educational challenge presented by the poor. The public school system does not have the problem of con tacting the urban poor, but the Catholic system has not effec tively sought out Puerto Rican and Protestant Negro children to teach, said Father Fitzpatrick.
He said the Catholic systeqi must ,recruit more poor children {'Or its schools. He cited figures showing that only seven per cent of the 137, 500 Negroes in school in Man hattan and the Bronx are in Catholic schools and only 12 per cent of the two boroughs' Puerto Rican children are in the Cath olic system. Bridge Culture Gap "The measure is embarrassing ly slight," he said. Despite the reasons for mini mal enrollment of Negroes and Puerto ,Ricans - which include financial and religious reasons Father Fitzpatrick said the Cath olic system "fails" if it educates only the children of white Cath olics. Once the urban poor come into the Catholic schools, experimen tation in ways to bridge the cul ture gap between the poor and the middle class must be devised, he said. Catholic schools must "escape from the rigidities which we are not conscious of, but which cen turies of, middle-class strivings have built into our culture," he said, by establishing a basis. of intercultural communication. This, he admitted, is easier said than done.
Detroit See Cancels Contract In Project Equality Dispute DETROIT (NC)-The Detroit archdiocese has canceled a $150,000 heating oil contract because the supplier has refused to comply with standards set by Project Equality. Project Equality is a stateWide, interreligious program under which Michigan's Catholic dioceses-and a number of Protestant churches and Jewish synagogues-agree to deal only with suppliers who live up to equal employment standards. Project Equality also operates in 10 other areas of the country. The heating contract was held for one year by Ma'rathon Oil Co. of Detroit. Under it, the company supplied oil to most of the Catholic churches and institutions in the eight-county archdiocese. But in July, 1967, Marathon officials told 1I4ichi~an Project
Equality director Launbural W, Spriggs that they were dropping out of the program. Spriggs said they told him they had to fill out "101 federal forms" every year, and they did not feel they had the time to complete additional Project Equality forms, or to participate in the annual compliance inter views conducted by Spriggs. Project Equality compliance standards are higher-and the forms more detailed-than those of the federal agencies which oversee equal employment practices. With Marathon - one of the area's largest oil suppliers-out of the picture, Catholic parishes and institutions were left to buy oil on their own this year. There are three other suppliers who still adhere to Project Equality ~egulatioJlS,

Apostolic Delegate Speaking on Catholic educa tion, Archbishop Raimondi said its task was to "shape the Chris tian character of man. Man's proper development is incon ceivable in isolation. He has to learn to live in. close association with other men, partake in their aims, and contribute to the d,e veloping of civilization, so that it can embody his spiritual ideals and transform it accordingly. "When we consider the matter of Catholic schools, we must think of what constitutes them 8S such. There cannot be a ques-
tion of merely establishing an other system or duplicating ef forts without need. In establish ing schools and exercising its right in educational activity, the Church fulfills its obligation of assuring Catholic children the formation of a fully Christian character, so as to be able to judge and act as Christ would." He listed as one of the main duties of the schoois as the res toration of "the sense of individ ual dignity as opposed to an ex aggerated tendency towards the absorption of the individual into the anonymous, collective mass.

Gov. Agnew said "if the Cath olic school system were not op erating in M,aryland today, there would be a tremendous extra burden on public education." Some Hl7,000 youngsters attend Maryland Catholic schools. "I think "the tack ought to be," the governor said, "to channel public funds into areas that are subordinate to education itse"li. I believe that such things as cul turalefforts outside the schools, as well as athletics, clubs and general recreation, can be sep arated from the hard core of public education." He added that such areas pro vide "some of the greatest irri tants." "The separation of public ed u cation from private education has to be restricted to just that education." Gov. Agnew assert ed. "It cannot be otherwise with out a substantial iQjustice re sultio,g."

Jointly sponsored by La Salette Seminary and the Attle boro Area Council of Churches, a Pastoral Counseling Institute for Protestant, Catholic and Jewish clergy began sessions last . week at the Attleboro Area iVlentai Health Center. The unusual project, say organ izers, began when se" eral pro fessional persons in the Attle' bol'O area appealed to 1he clergy "to help the increasing number of persons desiring aid in coping, with the demands 01 modern life." An ecumenical committee of elergy realized, upon studying ·the situation, that a c')tinseling center would fill a need. but that clergy-counselors wOl'ild need special training for the work. "It was evident," said committee members, "that a tl'aining pro gram would be an advantage to the community and to't1le clergy quite apart from any participa tion in a counseling center."

NEW YORK (NC)-The New York branch of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has decided to oppose the state's proposed new constitution be cause it would repeal the present ban on aid to church-supported schools. The organization made the de cision "reluctantly," because the new constitution contains many civil liberties provisions which the group has been advocating for years.

Coyle High Climbs· to Top Of Bristol County League By PETER BARTEK
Norton High Coach
While fans and mass media members alike have been focusing their attention on the more-heralded early season favorites, Msgr. Coyle High of Taunton has eased into first place in the Bristol County school-boy grid league. Annex ing their fourth straight in will host Attleboro next Satur pennant competition by vir day in a BCL contest. tue of their 22-15 come-from Front-running Bourne will be behind victory over Attle out to extend its all-winning boro last weekend, Coach Jim Lanagan's Warriors now have one more cir cuit win to their credit than un defeated Taunn ton High which is one-half game behind in the 1 0 0 p standings at the halfway mark in the campaign. Coa~ George Hemond's TaunPeter tonians racked Bartek up their fifth successive victory by walloping Stoughton of the Hockomock circuit, 37-0, in a non-league encounter Dast Satur day as Bourne, the only other unbeaten club within the dioc esan territorial limits, marched to an 8-6 triumph over Old Rochester of Mattapoisett to re- . main tied with Lawrence High of Falmouth for first place in the Capeway Conference. Closely Benched Based on a point system de pendent upon the classification of the opposition, as used in the rating of all State clubs, Taun ton High ranks first in the area with a total of 32 points for a 6.4 average with Bourne in sec ond place with 28 points for a 5.6 average. Coyle rates third position. with 24 points for a 4.8 average, the same as Durfee of Fall River which has copped four of its first five games. Following in their order' of ranking, based on points and average, are: Lawrence of Falmouth 4.4, Oliver Ames of North Easton 3.2, Dennis-Yarmouth 3.2, Mans field 3.2, Attleboro 2.8. Provincetown 3.0, seekonk 2.4, Nantucket 2.4, Norton 2.4, Bishop Feehan of Attleboro 2.4. Breather for Durfee Oliver Ames fell from the coveted undefeated class, as Wareham of the Capeway com petition administered a 21-0 whitewashing to the North Easton combine of the Hacko mock loop. Although scores of past games are many times misleading, the outcome of Coyle's next eHort against Stoughton High at the latter's field may give some in kling of how it will measure up against its cross-city public high rival on Thanksgiving Day. Stoughton 'was no match for the Hemondmen last weekend. Taunton, with three league and two non-league wins in its first five contests, looms to climb into a first place tie after its tilt with New Bedford Vocational on Saturday next. The Whaling City Artisans were crushed 41-G, by Bishop Stang High of Dart mouth last Saturday. Durfee, which found the going rougli against Bishop Feehan of Attleboro before it eked 'out a 12-8 win last weekend, should not have as much trouble this coming Saturday when it enter tains North Attleboro.

Stili smarting after their humiliation at the hands of the strong Falmouth club, Dennis Yarmouth's gridders will be at home this weekend in their match with Fairhaven which easily beat Barnstable, 20-0, last Saturday.
