A Pilqrimaqe to Assi·si
By Msgr. Humberto S. Medeiros. ROME-Bishop Gerrard and I have just returned from a pilgrimage to As sisi. I feel that a visit to Italy without seeing the hometown of St. Francis is like a visit ,to Rome without seeing the Pope. I remember that in early Novem ber of 1962 Bishop Connolly, Bishop Fitzgerald of Winona, Father Edward Mitchell and I went to the tomb of the "Povel>ello" to pray for the Council. We merely followed the example of Pope John XXIII, who on the previous October 4, the Feast of St. Francis of
Assisi, stopped at the Basilica to im plore the intercession and the blessing of the Saint of universal love and peace for the great Ecumenical Council he had convoked and was going to open only a week later, on October 11th. To day an inscription on the wall of the Auxiliary Bishop James J. Gerrard and Msgr. Humberto S.· Medeiros, diocesan repre sentatives at the fourth session of Vatican Council II, this week are visiting the Holy Land. They are in company with Bishops· and Council Periti. After arriving in Beirut, they are touring the holy· places, and, from Nazareth, will proceed to Tel Aviv for their return to the Eternal City.
lower Piazza, near the gate of the mon astery, commemorates this extraordi .nary visit of the Vicar of Christ to the tomb of Francis. This year,also on the Feast Day of St. Francis of Assisi, Pope Paul VI left the Vatican Council to bring his message of Christian love and peace to the nations of the world represent ed in New York ·at the General Assem bly of the United Nations. It would seem, then, that Popes John and Paul had Francis in mind Turn to Page Ten /

ligious objects, against the tend ency to produce only profitable merchandise that has little to do with religious feeliQg. Receiving about 200 members of the Christian Association of Italian Craftsmen, the Pope told them their work often passes from mere craftsmanship into works of art if good principles are foUowed. But he warned: "That which leads the crafts man astray and' distinguishes him from the artist', is the need to be assimilated into the mar ketplace: which reaUy pays no attention to art nor to faith but' tends to produce the religious 'article.' " He then said that the market is now crowded with "articles
. very little influenced by true religious sentiment." Worthy Pope Paul expressed the hope that each craftsman present would become an artist of the people. "While accepting the es thetic influences of one's own • day, he (the craftsman) human izes, simplifies, ennobles them and makes them understood in a -comprehensible language - that is something which so many art ists of today, forgetting one of the fundamental canons of art, are losing sight of-and in a religiously orthodox language." The Pope then spoke of reli gious objects and ornaments wliich are produced within con vents, and he recommended "simple and beautiful things which the conciliar Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy demands for religious worship elevated to its new and most worthy forms."

JOY TURNS TO .SADNESS AS CHAPEL BURNS TO ASHES
Catholics of the tiny village of Ugummu, north Ethiopia, Is the visit of their Bishop. When the old catechist announces the coming of Arch· bishop Asrate Mariam Yemllleru, the village sti~S with excitement. The annual visit, when the chll· dren receive their First Holy Communion and Cor:firmation, Is a time for feasting and rejoicIng. Some of the villagers go to repair the road .:-the Bishop'S land Rover is the only auto that ever goes to' Ugummu. Others set to repairing the chapel, re-thatching its roof. This crude church, without walls, is where ". missionary comes 25 miles by mule each week to celebrate Mass. It also shetter's the evening catechism classes that prepare the children so well to re ceive the sacraments ••• This year, as the cate· chist was putti'ng the final test to the First Com· munion class, a cry went up: ''The chapel Is on flrel" From the fields, from the road gang, all rushed to the chapel but could do nothing; in a few minutes It was a heap of ashes.

Not only are some of. her finds being readied for exhibition at the Smithsonian Institute, but she has scientists from as far away as California agog with excitement over the potential of digging sites she has dis covered. Andrea's interest in the earth and its contents began about three years ago;

John F. McCarthy, assist ant executive director of Catho lic Relief Services - National Catholic Wei far e "Conference, which operates the largest vol untary aid program in Vietnam. Before leaving, the group met with Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey and heard a reminder of the "urgency of the plight of the Vietnamese refugees." "The President and I are con fident," Humphrey said, "that the great American overseas re lief agencies can make their tra ditional contribution to ease the misery a~d suffering of the peace - seeking but war - torn men, women and children of Vietnam." More Help Needed Humphrey said the U. S. needs voluntary agencies "because they can do the job on a people to pe6ple basis, which the gov ernment cannot do." The eight officials, in addition to meeting with U. S. and Viet namese officials in Saigon, will visit a number of the approxi mately 200 refugee camps which house well over a half million refugees. Msgr. McCarthy, representing eRS-NCWC, testified before a Sen ate subcommittee recently that more U.

Her exhibits then and in succeeding years merited top awards on the regional level imd in Masachusetts Institute of Technology fairs. Lo, the Poor Indian' A high point in Andrea's bud ding career .came last month when, with her family, she un covered an Indian s k e let 0 n thought some 450 years old, at Menemsha on Martha's Vine yard. The skeleton, that of a young woman, was in perfect condition, something which hap pens only about "once in 10,000 times," according to Andrea. The importance of her find was obrroborated by Bernard H. Stockley of Nantucket, research director of the Shakemo Chapter
'of the. Massachusetts Archaeo logical . Society, who flew to Martha's Vineyard to complete the excavation. The skeleton will be displayed at Gay Head Muse um on the Vineyard. Closer to home, Andrea has'· been working for some time on a private "dig," the probable site of ·the Shove and Osborn Pottery Works, which was in operation ·in the 1740's. She has uncovered many "setting tiles", wedges and trivets used in pot
tery-making, as well as shards
'of ,bowls and other items manu fact.ured.
Should she find the actual site of the Shove and Osborn
kiln, the Smithsonian Institute·
has asked to be notified. "No
old kiln site has ever been dis
covered in New England," ex plained Andrea, "and the muse um would like to take measure ments and probably film the excavation process." Family Tradition ,. Interest in archaeology is a family tradition, says Mrs. Al exander Trzcinski, And rea's mother, recalling that a greatuncle was interested in marine excavations. As for herself: "I'm a Yankee, and Yankees always follow the plow in the Spring looking for arrowheads;" Andrea's interests are shared by her 12 year old brother, AIexander, who specializes in fossils and minerals. Both enjoy digging hikes, and it was on one of these that Andrea found a fragment of an antique serpentine drawer-pun. She had a jeweler attach a pin to it, and it's' now an attractive piece of costume jewelry. The family has a 12-room house in Berkley. "We couldn't move, we have so much 'junk: ~ comments Mr. Trzcinski. Andrea's hob b y is admittedly bulky. She proudly displays scores of .pottery fragments, many arrowheads, and such other Indian artifacts as stone axheads and grooved rock net

Home Economists Must Assist Humanity ST. LOUIS (NC) - Home economists have a vital role to play in aiding the disad~ vantaged, a nun home econ- , omist said. Writing in the official bulletin of the National Catholic Council on Home Economics, the group's new president, Sister Cecile Therese, said there has never been "more need for the contri bution home economists can make to a suffering, frustrated, anxiety-laden humanity." Sister Cecile, assistant profes sor of home economics at Font bonne College here, criticized. those who "ultimately fail to. become involved at the deep personal level." She asked of home economics teachers "that kind of inner conviction which urges-even commands-a deci sion to choose a course of actio1i that will help ameliorate the many facets of need." Those not directly involved with the disadvantaged, she said, "must attempt to pentrate the surface of affluence, sophistica
tion, selfishness, aloofness, fear or loneliness, because need is there also." . "We must be professionally competent; open and responsive to innovation and change, capa' ble of evaluating and synthesiz ing trends objectively, critically and realistically," she said.

Andrea is far from one-sided, however. "She's into every ac tivity at Cassidy," comments her mother. They include singing, playing French horn in the or chesfra, bas k e t ball and, of course, the school science club. Interestingly, the Trzcinskis are not Catholics, although An drea has attended Cat hoI i e schools since sixth grade, first Sacred Hearts Academy in Fall River, and now Bishop Cassidy. "Catholics should get down on their knees every night and thank God for their schools," declares Andrea's mother em phatically. She speaks with grat- itude of the solicitude Sisters have for their students. "They care," she said. "They really take an interest." She notes, for
instance, that the Sister Andrea hag in sixth grade "is almost like a second mother to her," and speaks glowingly of the prac tice in public speaking Sister John Elizabeth, S.U.S.C., Cassidy principal, has given Andrea in preparation for science fair ap pearances. Andrea herself, though quiet and reserved, is obviously in command of her specialty, speak
ing with authority of matters such as carbon 14 dating and
proper excavation ,techniques.
She digs about once a week in the school year, weather permit ting, "but school work comes first." However, Summer offers time and good weather and she is looking forward to discoveries in what is practically her own backyard, the Dighton' Rock area.

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River":"Thurs., Nov. 4. 1965
Holy Souls Month
Revitcdization The decrees promulgated last week by toe Vatican Council are not the jarringly new concepts introduced into Catholicism that some papers and writers would have one believe they are. The decrees do make explicit what the Church has been teaching and they do make specific some general prjnciples. , Thus, the Church has always taught love of neighbor and love for truth, and the decree relating to non-Catholics and non-Christians simply spells out the fact that Oatholics have never claimed that only they have the truth and that other religious persuasions are lacking truth. The de cree calls on Catholics to love and to reverence and to accept truth wherever it is. And it calls on Catholics to love all men and to reject anything like bigotry or anti Semitism. This is not a new idea, but it Is a specific appli cation. And it does make sure that authelltic Church teach ing makes itself felt in writing and teaching and everyday Catholic thought. The decree on the bishops spells out the principle of collegiality which is hardly a new idea although it has not been emphasized in the past few centuries as it is . now and was in earlier centuries of the Church. The relation of- the bishops of the world to the . Roman Curia-the Pope's chancery .staff for administer . ing Church world-wide affairs - is not a matter of doc trine but of administrative policy. And the whole que~tion of the Curia has been seized upon and overplayed by many because it provided them with a "bad guy" to discuss and attack. The decree on religious orders and seminary training is one that every Council must consider-the proper train ing of today's priests to' do God's work in today's world, arid the way in which members of religious communities must reconcile - not compromise - their work and aims and the world's needs. The Council decrees have as their purpose.doing what the Council from the beginnning was convened to do bring about a revitalization, a reawakening, a renewal, a re-emphasis in Catholicism and upon 'Catholics, .... and through them on the world.

The Pope said that an exam ination of the reasons for this shakiness, in faith would :be lengthy but added that it is "useful if we bear in mind that everyone nowadays has some notion within himself, or regard ing others, of this diminished sense of the faith, the whole, simple and strong faith of a faithful son of the Catholic Church. "We shall not dwell now on this examination but will restrict ourself to assuring -you, in the name of that Divine Master whom we have the good fortune of representing, that faith in Him and in that which the Church He founded teaches UIl deserves now no less than in the ·past an always full and frank adhesion." Truth Is Firm The Pope said that Christ's truth "is firm and secure. It is an exact mirror 'even though it may be enigmatic for Us, of objective and salutary facts. Time does not alter or distort this truth but rather verifies it and deepens it. History does not corrode it nor does it consume or change its significance and its value, but rather develops it and applies it wisely to changing circum stances. "Science does not render Jt vain but almost seeks it and begs for it. And the Church, certainly the ChurCh, does not forget it but safeguards it, meditates on it, defends it, professes it and re joices in it."

Sister of Mercy To Antarctic For Science PITTSBURGH (NO)-In mid-November a Sister of Mercy will become the first woman Religious to partici
c
pate in a scientific' research eruise in the Antarctic. Sister Mary Maurice, professor ()f biology at Mount Mercy Col lege, Pittsburgh, was chosen to assist Helen McCammon of tqe geology department of the Uni versity of Pittsburgh in studying Antarctic marine invertebrates for the National Science Founda tion. At present little is known of the physiological processes of such invertebrates. By studying these processes under controlled eonditions, Dr. McCammon and Sister Maurice hope to throw light on the environmental fac tors which caused changes in the animals' structure through mil lions of years in the past. The two women, with 30 or more scientists, will live aboard • U. S. naval research ship, the Eltanin, specially equipped as their working laboratory for the eight-week cruise. "I'm delighted with the enthu siasm shown by my community, fellow faculty members and stu dents at the news of my being ehosen for the expedition," Sis ter Maurice stated. "No one has said, 'For heaven's sakes, why?' Everyone says, 'Great.' It's won '"'erful - a. marvelous oppor·....ty." '

Women's Council Admits Sisters
Council Spirit ,of Love ,and PeQce Implore Intercession of St. Francis Continued from Page One 'when thinking of the Council of love and peace. Pope John prayed that the spirit of Francis might animate the Council he fathered. Paul spoke for the Council of John when he told the assembled delegates that he had nothing to ask from them but wanted only to express a desire, to beg their permission to serve them in what lies within, his competence, with unselfish ness, humility, and love. At the same time in ,Assisi, ,Cardinal Fernando Cento was preaching in the Basilica, to cel ebrate the feast of the "Little Poor Man of God". He said in . part, '''This very day the Vicar ,of Christ is addressing the United Nations in the name of Christ 'who is the Prince of Peace, sovereign and only Lord of heaven and earth. "From up there, we are certain, you, 0 St. Francis,' are praying now for the Pope, you who made of the words Peace and wellbeing your own motto, you who brought. peace to individ, uals and cities." Assisi Breathes Virtues In Assisi we sense everywhere the presence of St. Francis. His tomb is one of the most impres sive sights I have ever seen. A man who has had perhap' more influence on people for the last seven hundred years than any other single person since apos tolic times, who now has in the three Orders he founded nearly 50,000 men, 200,000 women, and over 3,000,000 laymen, was bur ied at his own request, in the dump of Assisi, and his remains are still there buried in the heart of the naked rock. ' The magnificent Basilica built . over it by his followers, does not detract from the humility and simplicity of the tomb. Francis still speaks of poverty, detachment and love from the unadorned ,and dark stone of his grave. '" , ' '" . ~itur~1 ~s Lesson. The spirit of :francis, whiCh 'Pope John-prayed·,might ,be ,the· llpirit of ,the Cou.neil.surely. mus~
have moved Pope Paulto be come the apostolic pilgrim of peace for this age. The better to' catch this spirit, we should try to see it through the eyes of the Church, and I believe the place where we clin sense it most is in the Liturgy. For instance, the prayer which was said until recently on the Feast of the Stigmata of st. Francis reads like this, "0 Lord Jesus Christ, who, when the world was growing cold, in order to inflame our hearts in your love, didst renew in the flesh of most Blessed Francis the wounds of your sacred Pas sion, grant that through his merits and prayers we may al 'ways carry the cross and may produce worthy fruits of pen ance." The Epistle for the same Feast . is from St. Paul, but is applied by the Church to Francis, "Far be it from me to glory in any thing save the cross of Our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom the world is crucified to me arid I am crucified to the 'world." For St. Paul "the new creatnre in Christ" was all that counted. "And may peace be upon all who follow this rule, and mercy upon the Israel of God." (Gal. 6. 14-18) The Gospel for this feast is taken from St. Matthew. In it Christ says, "If any man wishes to follow me, let him deny him self, and'take up his cross and follow me. For the man who w ish e s t o save his life shall lose, but the man who loses his life for my sake, shall find it." Spirit of the Cross ' The Postcommunion of this Mass reads like this, "0 God, who in many ways hast shown in Blessed Francis, your Con fessor, the wonderful mysteries of the Cross, grant us, always 'to follow the example of his devotion and to strengthen our selves with a continuous medi tation upon this same Cross." It is easy, to see that, for the Church the spirit of, St.· Francis is ',essentially, ,tpe .spirit ,of the Cross which Pope Paul so im-

Parish Societies Fail to Meet Present Needs' DAYTON (NC)-A Oath olic pastor charged here that· the traditional concept of the Holy Name Society does not fit the vision of the modern parish. , "Many things about the Holy Name Society are 25 years out of date," Msgr. Martin T. Gilli gan, pastor of St. Charles parish, Kettering, Ohio, said in a lecture at the University of Dayton. A dynamic parish community must "involve as many people in as many things as possible," Msgr. Gilligan said. This must be done by organizing and using the skills and professions of the people, he added. "As far as I'm concerned, the Holy Name Society is dead," Msgr. Gilligan said. Sanctify The priest said that his own parish, which was created three years ago, was attempting to develop relationships with pub lic schools and with persons of other faiths. "We have imbued our parish ioners with the idea that they must sanctify the secular en vironment, and nof merely be messenger boys for the priests," Msgr. Gilligan said.. Another Ohio pastor, Father Roland Winel of St. Mary's par ish, Lancaster, said that "existing lay organizations must change or cease to exist."

"Poverty coexisting with rich ness is an insult to the order or dained by God, Miss Ward (Lady Robert Jackson) told the Sixth' World Order study conference of the National Council of Churches here. The internationally known British Catholic laywoman stood in the pulpit of Christ Church Episcopal cathedral as she pre sented the second in a series of lectures in honor of the late United Nations Secretary Gen eral Dag Hammarskjold, held in conjunction with the conference. Christian, Jewish and human istic principles demand unity in seeking to abolish world poverty, not by charity but by justice, Miss Ward said. Programs based on income tax, welfare, and a fair sharing
Ecumenical Mission Center Gets Grant NEW YORK (NC)-The Ford Foundation has awarded a $600,000 grant to the year-old Urban Training Center for Christian Mission in Chicago. The interreligious center, which is supported by 16 denom inations, including the Catholic Church, gives clergy, semi narians and laity exposure to some of the major problem areas of American society. Its trainees combine a full curriculum of seminars and workshops, using the city of Chicago as a laboratory, and participate actively in such things as anti-poverty programs and mass community organiza tion.

Archbishop' Hakim's Book Fills in Gospel Background
You By Most Rev. Fulton J. Sh.eeR, D.D. Nothing prompts a Cathollo to snipe III Oswald-fashioD at the Church as does a bad conscience. It Is Dot a love of the Crucified that prompts him to sell the Lord but an unrequited sense of guilt. Believe me. after four years at the Council, I have come to the conclusion that never before III the history of the Church have there been so many "dry martyrs" III her Councils as there are today. The ''wet martyrs" shed their blood aDd died quickly. The "dry martyrs" rotted III prisons and concentratioD camps, keeping their blood dry but dying a living death. One bishop used to put a raisin In a glass with a few drops of water. allowed it to ferment and then used this to celebrate Mass. And he did all this while undergoing torture In a Siberian prison. The Berans, the Sepers, the Slipyis, the Quinlaos, the Camara hundreds and hundreds of them-they are the crucifixes at the Council to whom we look as to a 20th Century Christ.

Hakim's Read
ing the Good
News in Galllee
(Helicon. $3.50) ,
Archbishop Hakim is a Greek Catholic Patriarch and his see is Gali lee. With all that area, and indeed with all Holy Land, he is very familiar. His book is simple and not at all lengthy. It is made up of talks he has given at one time or an f)ther . One wishes that the arch bishop would undertake a more IYstematic' and detailed treat ment, for he is knowledeable and skillful in filling in the 'Gos pel background and showing the full meaning of incidents largely lost on those unacquainted 'with: the customs of ancient Palestine. Dining with Pharisees Those customs have changed .urprisingly little at least down to the present. In our own times, 'however, there is probably more ehange than in the centuries in tervening between the first cen turY and the twentieth. In a world not only modem Ized but increasingly homogen ized,' much that is distinctive and delightful is being per manently lost. But a book like Archbishop Hakim's preserves and illumines the precious past. To take one example 'from many, Archbishop Hakim can explain for us, from what he has himself observed in the vill ages of the Holy Land, why, in the Gospel, our Lord is shown dining in the houses of Phari lees. The Pharisees were His en emies, bent on His death. Why, then, would they give Him hos pitality, and why would He ac cept it? Fascinating Details The answer is discernible in present practice. When nightfall ,eames, the traveler stops at the nearest village, and is always brought to the house of the headman, who, '~regardless of his personal attitude toward the Yisitor, will invite him to cline _d spend the night." But the unwelcome guest, al though received, may be ,shown lCant courtesy. This accounts not only for our Lord's being at. a Pharisee's table (as in Magdala), but also for His being deD1ed oertain polite attentions (such 3ll the washing of the ',feet and the kiss of greeting). Again, Archbishop Hakim has • myrial of small but fascinating details to offer indicative of the probable ages of Mary and Jo eeph when they 'were married, the, source of our Lord's allusions to the practices of farmers and shepherds, His formal schooling (none at all), the quantity of fish taken in the miraculous draught, the procedure at the wedding feast in Cana, and so

Insecure People Let me try to analyze the three major objections that you have raised against your daugh ter's husband with particular re ference to his behavior at the time she gave birth to a child. Asthma may be a psychoso matic illness. By that, I simply mean, it is psychological in ori gin although it does have phy-_ sical manifestations. In child hood it is common among males but in adult life the ratio be tween the sexes is about equal. Psychologists believe that such individuals are apt to have personalities which are hyper sensitive, that they are insecure people fearful of losing the love and protection of parents or others. They also suffer anxie ties brought about by the con flicts associated with breaking away from persons upon whom they feel dependent or by the problems they meet in obtaining needed love and support. Sick Man In other words your son-in law is a sick man. If he can be persuaded to do so, he might ask his physician whether or not he believes his illness is of psy chological origin, and if so, what recommendations he would make for the treatment. Nowhere in your letter, which Is much longer than what I could reproduce, do you give any real indication of your claim that he is anti-religious. If you are basing' this upon his fraudulent collection of un employment insurance, it would be more correct to say that he is acting in a dishonest manner. Unfortunately, in this particu lar area of life, many people who are otherwise quite honest, do not seem to feel it is wrong to cheat the government. The number of income tax evasions .that occur annually in the United States is ample proof ei. this. Violent Temper This conduct cannot be con doned and he leaves :tIimself OPen to prosecution. If thiS oc eurs, the situation will prove even worse than it is at the moment, so again, someone should bring it to his attention 8114 attempt to 'persuade him
the aid of one of the parish priests, a close friend or some one who can get through to him, the matter oug~ to be dis cussed. His violent temper is just an other indication of his grave psychological insecurity. People who are ill rarely behave in an entirely normal way. This ap plies to all of us when we are sick. Since this man to me appears to be quite ill, I think the matter of his temper tan trums is something associated with. his other. problems. Medical Care Cost He is apparently a miser given to the hoarding of money. You see, for him money is a matter of providing a sense of security and support that apparently he is not receiving or if he is re ceiving it, does not understand it. . There are few people who' do not complain about the cost of medical and hospital care. The reason is that no one wishes to be ill and usually he resents at least to some "degree, the cost of paying for rec07ery. But his .highly explosive behavior on the occasion of the birth of his second child outruns the usual reaction to the payment of medical·and hospital bills. As a mother-in-law you- are in a difficult position to take any positive action.' Since in the past you opposed the marriage and apparently are still highly critical of him, I suspect he is equally critical of you. The best you can do is to attempt to work through a qual ified third party with the sup port of your daughter. She must realize how serious' his psycho logical problems are. She must also be made to realize tat there is hope of effecting a change. But in this case it is only going to occur throu,gh professional help. Consult Priest On the positive side I would make the following suggestions. Let your daughter talk to one of the parish priests, or to Catholic Social Service or to the family physician. As his wife she has both the obligation and the op portunity of doing this. I feel , certain that if he is referred to qualified practitioners, help will be forthcoming. So far as you are concerned, however, you had better prac tice a hands off policy. Any direct intervention on your part, will arouse antagonisms from him and c,?uld possibly prevent his ever seeking the kind of pro fessional assistance that he now so desperately needs. You can hope, pray, and try to persuade your daughter to persuade nim to take these steps. Beyond that your r~le as a mother-in-law who has not got ten along with her son-in-law, makes any more open approach not only impossible but thor oughly impractical.

cuse churches of indiHerence to the plight of the nation's cities. William Stringfellow, lawyer and author of several books on current- religious problems, com mented:, "In viewing the current state of the Church's mission to the city, little can be. said which does, not make our churches look ridiculous. "We find virtua1ly a full-time preoccupation with ecclesiastical housekeeping and massive in difference to the anzieties of city life. The mission to the city is nominal, a mere gesture com pared to the immense resources churches have at their disposal, and compared to the mission with which the church is charged. "The city of modem society," he charged, "is much more a reversion to feudalism than an emancipation." "What has happened to the city?" he asked. "Poverty, unemployment and slums are still very much pres ent. Credit is easy to obtain at high premiums for goods of inferior quality. New housing is beyond the reach of the poor •.. :More and more space is be ing alloted for luxury housing. The chasm between rich and ,poor grows wider and wider. For all this, there is currently what is euphemistically called' a 'war on poverty:' Where or when will it begin?" he said. Stringfellow held· that "the witness of the church is peri pheral, pietistic, corny and pro fane." "There must be restored te the Church," he said, "as a so ciety in the world, a visible unity through which all men may behold the true city-:'-the society in w~ich all men are citizens. Then the churches too can again discern and rely on God's presence in the world and even in the city. Then we will hear again that it is God who builds the city of salvation...·

Com menting on complaifits by some New Bedford residents that Job Corp enrolees represent a pote11 tial source of trouble, and that center discipline is not suffi ciently strict, Father .O'Neill 'said in a letter to the New Bedford S tandard-Times: "Despite sincere efforts to solve the dropout problem, educators admit that they cannot be reached by the ordinary school program. Indeed, New Bedford is not without its share of such youngsters. The Job Corps rep resents a new hope for them, ~nd could well be. a real break":
through in a long bewildering problem. "Our neighboring communities on Cape Cod have welcomed the Job Corps at Camp Wellfleet, and its value is already apparent to those who. study it. We can only hope that a progressive city like New Bedford would show the same foresight. No doubt there will always be a small number who cause serious disciplinary problems, as in fact, there is in most schools or institutions of any kind. How ever, even for them, as well as the other 90 percent, we join 'in your well-stated plea for charity and tolerance... when so much is at stake." Should Aid Research Amplifying his remarks in the letter to the Standard-Times, Father O'Neill noted that the Job Corps approach is "educa-' tionally a very exciting and im pressive thing. It is reaching
youngsters ordinary schools can not." He said that adolescents who have dropped out of 'school "probably have troubles that started in second grade." They need a certain amount of aca demic permissiveness, he said, and their frequent inability to concentrate must be recognized and allowed for. The Diocesan educator said he thought the Rodman center should supply valuable material to researchers seeking how best to handle the drop-out problem. This viewpoint is supported ,by Science Research Associates, the educational organization in charge of the center. Officials there say that Rodman "is an experimental attempt to increase the employability of young men whose capabilities in the com petitive job market are severely limited." They view the project "as a

Home Cooking Among New Bedford commu nity facilities which. have been opened to Job Corps members is the Kennedy Center, which has offered gymnasium facilities to the 'center until its own building is ready. Something more' is needed, however. It was summed up by another letter writer to the Standard-Times' as "Mom's apple pie." The suggestion has been made by several Rodman center officials, as well' as by interested New Bedford residents that an
effort be made to welcome Job Corps members into area homes for occasional meals. Specifically, it was noted that many boys are too far from their homes 'to return for Thanks giving, and that invitations for Thanksgiving dinner would be
more than welcome.
"Some boys are from as far
away as Montana," said a tutor
counselor at the center, "and
there's no hope of their getting
home for the holiday. How
they'd appreciate a home-cooked
mea!!"
Some boys are shy, he con
tinued, and if at all possible, it would be thoughful for pro spective hosts to invite them in two's. "Then they're not so bash ful." Invitations can be addressed to Jerome M. Ziegler, center di rector, at Rodman Job Corps, New Bedford.
