Bishop-Elect Says Appointment Tribute to Church Catholicity NEW ORLEANS (NC)-Bish op-elect Harold R. Perry, S.V.D., said on his arrival here from Rome that he views his appoint ment as "a tribute to the Catho licity of the Church in America, and to the Catholicity of the people of the New Orleans. arch diocese," rather than to· him personally. He asked for the good will, understanding and prayers of '.the people of New Orleans to help him serve them ''in faith and charity in the best way I know of." The veteran Louisiana priest, the first Negro in modern times to be named a Catholic bishop in America, said· he was grateful to Pope Paul for appointing him auxiliary bishop of New Orleans because "I now 'enjoy the great privilege of being a successor of the Apostles."

In reply to a question on the Church's role in civil rights demonstrations, Father Perry said he will "have so many things to do as a Catholic bishop that I personally will not have time to be considered a civil rights leader."

';In the archdiocese, however, I will be working under the su 'pervision of Archbishop Hannan, and naturally I will take my orders from him. Whatever he approves or disapproves, I will accept."

Questions Value New Jersey Prelate Sees Little Advcintage In Establishing Police Review Boards POINT PLEASANT (NC) The coordinator of interracial programs for the Newark arch diocese doubts the practicality of civilian revlew boards to in vestigate charges of police bru tality against minority groups. Such'boards cannot be rejected on principle, Msgr. Aloysius .T. Welsh said. But he added: "Would such a board be advan tageous in settling racial tensions and providing an effective mech anism for avoiding or settling disputes about police miscon duct?" "My own judgment," he told the Northeast Institute on Com munity Relations here in New Jersey, "would be that a review board would ·notsettle so much

-..-.-..-.,----,...-- --_-...-....-...-..---- -_ ...

as postpone disputes and trans fer them to a higher level." He said civilian review boards would also "place board person nel in the target area of racial counter-claims and harm the morale of both police and offi cial civil rights agencies." "I would trust rather iIi' pre ventive measures-the screening of police candidates for preju dice as a priority and their training in human relations-and in the channels already existing to process grievances."

pane,l of speakers has agr,eed that communist re gimes have a long way to go in 'the area of individual freedom but 'the chances of progress vary from one communist country to another. Robert V. Daniel, University of Vermont history. professor, speaking at a two-day confer ence on religion in communist bloc countries, at St: Michael's College, estimates chances for progress are best in Eastern Eu rope "where Russian style des potism has never been particu larly welcome, even among com munists." He added that chances for progress are darkest in com munist China. "The future of religion under communism' depends mainly on the future of totalitarianism," Daniels said. . "On this question, there are many guesses but little agree ment. Some will say Soviet total itarianism will. never ease up enough to permit real religious freedom. Some may argue that totalitarianism already has been done away with by de-Staliniza tio'n and that religion has all the freedom it needs in the commu nist world. My own estimation is · that there is a long way to go."

I heard one guy telling a group of girls 'Well, you fin ally got me to visit your cathe dral.' I learned later he was an 'exec' from Saks Fifth Avenue." "How did they move around?" "Well, we placed large vigil lights down the center aisle on each side. It looked like a min iature runway. The candleligh't was sufficient and soothing." "No mishaps of any kind?" "No, everyone behaved beau tifully. The only nuisance was the snoring. Msgr. Thomas Mc Govern kept walking through the cathedral up until four in the morning just in case anyone needed assistance of any kind. Everyone slept and left at dawn. "One visiting priest came over about 6:30 A.M. to say Mass. He had been stranded since 5:30 P.M. on the 86th floor of the Empire State Building."

of St. Mary's, No. Attleboro,

To Spo.,,:sor 75th An.niversary·Open House

Seventy-five years ago the lower church cornerstone of St. Mary's parish, North Attleboro, was laid. In observance of the anniversary year, Confraternity of Christian Doctrine-members are sponsoring an open house Sunday, Dec. 12, to which all area residents have been invited. Ceremonial vestments and the sacred vessels used in the celebration of Mass will be on display and attendants will be on hand to answer ques tions or amplify the brief explanations to be placed near each exhibit. Refreshments will be served in the school hall after the tour of the church. In sponsoring such event, the parish bears silent witness to the ecumenical climate of the 20th century and to the distance both it and the American Cath olic Church have come since the mid-nineteenth century. Know-Nothings The first Catholics came to North Attleboro at a time when neither Catholics nor the Irish were popular in the area, a time identified with the "Know Nothing" movement, which at tempted to prevent the settle ment .of both Catholics and for eign-born citizens. However, in spite of hostility, the group in North Attleboro became a mission of St. Mary's Parish, Pawtucket, and remained so, under the pastorate of Father McNamee, until 1856. At that time the mission was taken over by Father Gilleck, pastor in Greenville, who celebrated the first Mass in Attleboro in the home of a Mr. Fallon on upper High Street, now known as the golf grounds. Father Gillick built the first church in Attleboro. Dedicated June 19, 1859, it was located at the "rock" which is now Attle boro Falls. It has since been con verted ~nto tenement houses. By 1873 the North Attleboro mis sion had become much larger than t:lat at Greenville, and . Father Gillieck moved to Attle boro. The following year he was succeeded by Rev. Edward J. Mongan, who transferred the parish center to North Attleboro. Old Round House Father Mongan purchased the Tifft estate with its existing buildings in 1877. The property at that time included the "Old Round House," a historic site .and well known edifice built 'in 1856 and used as a rectory until 1959; the "Old Octagon," an eight-sided building,· another landmark in the area, which served for many years as a church for St. Mary's parishion ers; and the famous "Old Red Barn." During this period, St. Mary's served as the mother church for missions in Attleboro' which became a separate parish in 1883; St. Mary's, Mansfield, sep arated in 1894; an<! St. Stephen's, Dodgeville, which became a parish in 1880. The cornerstone of the new church was laid May 30, 1890, and parishioners attended ser vices in the basement church until the upper edifice was com pleted and dedicated in 1901. In the meanwhile, while the church was under construction, several changes took place at St.

The next pastor was Rev. John McCarthy, who came to North Attleboro in 1901 and was faced with the problem of re ducing the parish debt for the purchase of the land and build ing of the church. He also pur chased a parish cemetery and completed the interior· of the church, erecting marble altars, and installing chimes and stained glass windows. ' The next pastor was one whose name seems synonymous with the growth of the Church in Attle boro, since he served in that area for decades. Father, later Monsignor, P. E.

These were constructed to complement the school, as was the rectory after them, and are located on the same site as the other church properties. Upon the death of Father McGee, Father Considine served as administrator until Rev. Francis Maloney was named pastor the following year. Father Maloney added two classrooms to the school and started plans for a new rectory during his eight-year pastorate. In 1957, Rev. Edward B. Booth, the present pastor, took over the duties at .St. Mary's. The "Old Round House" was fin ally torn down. A modern rectory erected on its site was completed in 1959. With 4500 to 5000 of the faithful in his parish, Father Booth is assisted by Rev. Armando Annunziato and Rev. Daniel F. Moriarty, curates.

Maronite Pastor To 'be Witness At Beatification Chor-Bishop Joseph Eid, pastor of St. Anthony of the Desert Maronite Rite Church in Fall River, left for Rome Tuesday to be pr~sent at beati fication ceremonies Sunday, Dec. 5 for Father Sharbel, "the her mit of Lebanon." The event will climax years of effort by Father Eid, who is vice-postulator of Father Sha.-.r bel's cause for canonization in the United· States. Most impor tant of his works in behalf of Father Sharbel has been publica tion and circulation of "The Hermit of Lebanon: Father Sharbel," an account of the holy man's life and miracles. As the beatification solemni ties are taking place in Rome, St. Anthony of the Desert pa rishioners will hold a triduum of thanksgiving, beginning Thurs day, Dec. 2 and ending Sunday. A large picture of Father Shar bel will be brought from the parish center, named in his hon or, to the church. This ceremony will coincide with the display in St. Peter's Basilica of the her mit's likeness. Two Miracles Two m ira c I e s performed through the intercession of Father Sharbel will be accepted in support of his beatification, said Father Eid: Both are dis cussed in his book. One involves . the cure of' a Lebanese nun, healed of a longstanding stomach disorder; the other, that of a Lebanese blacksmith, blind in one eye for 13 years, who had his sight restored after persever ing prayer to the monk. Father Eid said that the Sacred Congregation of Rites will meet with Pope Paul Satur day to complete final details in connection with the beatification. The Fall River pastor will use his time in Rome to gather mate rial for' a new edition of his book on Father Sharbel and wiu also present an offering at St. Peter's on behalf of his parish ioners and friends in Fall River.

Vatican Council 'Most Hopeful' KALAMAZOO (NC) - The Vatican Council is "one of the most hopeful things to happen in our generation," philosopher author Michael Novak said here in Michigan. ' Novak , whose many articles and books on Church reform have attracted national atten tion, said at Kalamazoo College that "it has weakened the stres ses between East and West and has brought Catholics and Pro~ testants immeasurably closer together in discussion, inquiry and plain conversation." "The council," he said, "has brought new hope in human pos sibilities, for people seem to think that 'if the Catholic Church can be renewed, anything can'." "There is, of course, ,a con- servative back 1 ash in the Church," Novak said. "There are many who do not· liKe renewal and reform. The Vatican council' represents the struggle for re formation within the Church. The struggle will be a long one. The Church straddles an im mense spectrum 'of time and place."

Protestant Council Praises Vatican. II

KANSAS (NC)-A Festi.. val of Faith .brought Catho lics and Protestants together in Municipal auditorium here for a joint worship service fea turing hymns, prayers, and Scripture readings. About 4,000 persons, including about 120 clergymen, took part in the service, which was spon.. sored by the Kansas City Coun cil of Churches and the Catholic diocese of Kansas City-St. Jo seph. Msgr. Richard Schumacher, vicar general of the diocese of Kansas City-St. :loseph, and Episcopal Bishop Edward R. Welles of West Missouri led the Scripture readings. Encouraging Step "Roman Catholics, Orthodox. Protestants, ADglicans are in complete without each other, without unity at the Lord's table," Bishop Welles said at the service. "Thanks be to God, our wor ship together here today is a historic, encouraging step for ward. .. Let us go forth from this' experience into our local neighborhoods, resolved, with God'.s help, to make deliberate ',efforts to grow together in friendship and fellowship, in love," he said.

Students fro m low-income areas who. are one year or more below their grade level in read ing development are eligible to attend the 36-week after-school reading program, conducted one hour each day, four days a week. The classes are taught by spe cially-trained reading teachers from the Chicago public school system. All classes take place in public school classrooms.

Priest Addresses Baptist Meeting SUNNYVALE (NC)-A Cath olic priest was a speaker at the first annual Reformation Sun day meeting of the American Baptist convention here, attend ed by 1,000 members of the Bap tist Church· of northern Cali fornia. Father Eugene :I. Boyle, di rector of the San Francisco arch diocesan commission on social justice, was a panelist in a dis cussion on "R e new a 1 in the Church"· with the Rev.' :lohn Arthur, Western representative for Lutheran Campus Ministries and the Rev.

Continued fi'om Page One Movement. The Holy Father has also de termined to take advantage of ' this extraordinary congregation of Bishops. He has met the assembled prelates of each coun try and he has experimented a bit with this newly defined col legiality. In requests to the national conferences of bishops, the Pope asked their individual and :com bined opinions concerning cer tain disciplines in the Church.

Today's Decrees Continued from Page One Catholic Church whereas it ac tually enlightened and guided an those whose apparent force came from "Tradition". The only possible disappoint ment to some is that the Councll Fathers have sidetracked the question of the rellltion~~ip be tween Bible and TradItIon. It was thought that the matteI: was not yet clear enough to be clear ly proclaimed. However, this of itself was a great teaching, tak ing the wind out of extremists of both camps. The Church has officially backed modern biblical studies and their religious-histo,rical literary methods. The Church has urged further study and has showed that man has nothing to fear from the detailed study of humanity's understanding, writing and transmission of Di vinity's revelation.

Marykno'" Sister Writes Delightful, Inspiring Book

By Most Rev. Fulton J.

By Rt. Rev. Msgr. John S. Kennedy '.J Sister Maria del Rey has a knack of catching in words the joyous spirit of the Maryknoll Sisters. The reason may be that she is herself one of their number. At any rate, in earlier books she has conveyed the 'combination of earnestness and gaiety which characterizes her comment or prettification.

Imagine running a diocese in the United States greater in !xtent than Illinois and Indiana on $BOO-a-year. If only some of the money that we funnel into exces sively . rich parishes, colleges and or ganizations could be funneled into the Holy Father for the hundreds and hun dreds of excessively poor dioceses in mis 'sion lands! One of the many advantages of giving to The Society for the Propa gation" of the Faith, is that your alms go to the poor church-d,irectly-and that your entire gift is distributed by the. Holy Father within the year. The Society for the Propagation of the Faith exists for Christ's poor church, poor bishops, poor priests, poor religious, poor people. If you wish to make the rich richer, all well . and good, but for your soul's sake take just one minute and think of good bishops like the one above.

JOHNSON CITY (N President Johnson has pro claimed Nov. 28 "a day of dedi cation and prayer" to honor those "risking their lives to bring about a just peace in South Vietnam.'" Congress had suggested In a resolution that the President designate Nov. 27 as a day of prayer, but Mr. Johnso,n chose the 28th, a Sunday, instead. A series of anti-war demonstra tions, including a march on Washington, have been sched uled for Nov. 27. The president's proclamation honored "the men and women of South Vietnam, of the United States, and of all other coun tries" who are risking their lives in the war.

Pastor Asserts Civil Rights From' God

Edited by John J. Considine, M.M. From "The Church in the New Latin America"

Basic to every family is the family home. In 1960 the

55 million families in the United States lived in a total of 52 million homes, these homes averaging six rooms each, large and small. A surplus of five million homes in the United States were reported millions of children to eat as unoccupied. In' Latin ·teach unaccustomed food is a formid America, instead, the 40 able task.

VICTORIA (NC) - Civil , rights are not civil at all, a ·Victoria priest told the · NAACP convention meeting · here in. Texas. "They are God given rights, and the role of the Church with regard to these

rights is the same today as it has been' from the beginning." Speaking at a symposIUm en

titled "The Role of Religious

Institutions in the Civil Rights

Struggle," Father E.A. Hermes,

pastor of Our Lady of Victory

church, said:

"If these were civil rights, it would mean that they were be stowed by the government. And if this were true, then they could be taken away by the same gov- ..... , ernment." The pastor declared that "God established the brotherho~d of man" which he said is the basis for what we are now referring to as civil rights. Father Hermes said that the crux of the so-called civil rights issue lies not in defining the

origin of the rights, but in'im

plementing them.

Church .pOsition "The Catholic Church' through out history has taken the official position favoring est~blishment of equality," he said. But he readily admitted that practice has fallen short of official pro nouncements. Father Hermes appeared' at the symposium with the Rev. Mac N. Turnage, pastor of Grace Presbyterian church; Dr. Jack Kahn, a Jewish rabbi and the Rev. N.H. Kern of Our Savior's Lutheran church. Rev.. Turnage said the civil

rights movement has reawaken

Advises Professional Care

For Psychological Illness

By John J. Kane, Ph.D. "Judging by your earlier column everyone addicted to pornography, is sick. If that were true, then' every sin we commit isn't a sin. It's because we are ill. Couldn't persons addicted to smut merely be evil persons? You told this man's wife not to seek a . separation. What about her quite probably not responsible peace of mind, her feelings for his behavior. and health? Don't they matMental Illness

, "::>

ter?" You have raised a highly interesting and provocative question, Dorothy. Is it possible to e I aim t hat everyone who commits a sin is ill? I certainly would not m a k e sue h a claim. So m e h i g h I y subtle distinctions are essential. Let's take the case 0;: a woman who enters a supermaket and engages in shop-lifting. She does this purposively and perhaps because she needs the item she steals and cannot pay for it. Or, to put it better, she thinks she needs th.e item she steals. I am not referring tc someone who is desperately poor and starving. I would consider this an immoral act and I would not claim that the woman is necessarily ill. Desperately Sick On the other hand let's take the case of a woman who periodically goes to a -supermarket and inevitably shoplifts. She takes items which she doesn't need, and for which she could well pay. It turns out that the second woman is a kleptomaniac. She is sick, desperately sick psychologically. She is probably not morally responsible for her acts because of a severe emotional disturbance. I hope these two illustrations will help to clear up in your mind my distinction between persons who engage in immoral behavior purposively and those under strain of grave emotional disturbances. As the fields of medicine, psyehiatry, psychology, and sociology are more and more develeped, 'we are learning a great deal about the motives and beha\'ior of'human beings. A person accused of witchcraft in early colonial times, might well have been put to death. Yet we know today that many of these women were probably mentally ill. Not too many years ago persons who were psychotic, crazy, in the popular language, were chained in dungeons. In England of the past ladies and gentlemen used to visit these asylums on Sunday in order to laugh over the antics of the mE;,ntally ill. Indicates Disturbance Today we realize that mentally ill persons are not responsible for their 'condition, any more than a person who suffers from a cold or a stroke is directly responsible for his physical condition. We no longer laugh at insanity, we attempt to do something about it for these unfortunate persons. Psychologists believe that the mere collecting of pornographic

literature, for instance sexual

humor in the form of cartoons

and drawings, may not be abso

lutely indicative of any sexual .abnormality. But when this becomes com

pulsive, as it apparently was in

the case to which you refer, there is a strong indication of

a severe emotional'disturbance.

That is why I stated that this lIlan was psychologically ill, and

I would certainly not agree with you in calling a person who collects, pornography compul- . sively as a result of an emotional illness an evil person. I would much prefer to call him a sick person and I believe I stand on sound, scientific grounds. Today there are many condi tions which we once considered due to a weak will that we now believe to be mental illness or neuroticism. One of the very best examples, of course, is true alcoholism. I should like tC!, refer you to a very excellent book "Counsel ing The Catholic", by Fathers Hagemaier and Gleason. The first part deals with psychological as peets, the second with the moral aspects of aberrations., I think if you read this book you will un derstand more clearly than I can help you to understand in a brief column, the full implications of psychological illnesses for cer tain kinds of behavior. I advised this woman not to I.eave her. husband simply because when one enters' into the sacrament of matrimony, he or she takes the other in sickness and in health. There is no justi fication for deserting a husband_ or wife or divorcing or separ ating from either because the in dividual is ill. Only if the life of one spouse is truly in danger and absolutely nothing can be done about it, would I think of reco'mmending a separation and then only on the grounds of personal safety. Disturbed Personalities I think this wife's health and peace of mind will be greatly improved if her husband re ceives professional care. There is no doubt that his particular compulsive behavior can be cor rected with psychiatric assist ance. If she were to leave him, she wo'uld constantly worry about what hap,pens to him. And if something dire did happen, a far from unlikely possibility, she might suffer anguish the rest of her life for no't having stood by the man she'married during his period of crisis. Finally, I did not intend in any way to convey the imp'res- . sion that everyone who commits' a sin is sick. But I do want to emphasize that certain types of behavior, w h i c h objectively speaking are imlI\oral, may be due to disturbed personalities. Morally speaking, such indi viduals are not capable of mak ing a distinction between right and wrong, and therefore are not responsible for what they do. Furthermore, if there is to' be any hope for such people, it can only come through an intelligent. and sympathetic understanding of the dynamics of their person- ' alities.

Milwaukee Catholic Council To Investigate Segregation

ChaplainChar!,,~

MILWAUKEE (NC)-The Catholic Interracial Council of Milwaukee will investigate alleged de facto segregation In Oatholic elementary schools here with the cooperation of. the archdiocesan school office. The CIC's executive com mittee approved the study 14-3, along with a recom than 150 were divided among mendation that Archbishop three more schools. The Catholic Interracial Coun William E. Cousins ask the cil's action was taken on a reso

:recently. established archdioc esan school board to prepare a plan for "rapid and complete de segregation" of Catholic scho~s if segregation is found. The interracial council's education eommittee will make the study. Msgr. Edmund J. Gobel, arch diocesan school superintendent, Ilaid his office will be "most hap py to cooperate" with the study. In Controversy He said that in places where DO Negro families live, there is "'bound to be" de facto segrega tion of schools-"not by design but only because citizens of color have not been allowed to or have not chosen to live in these and other areas." Msgr. Gobel was involved in the recent controversy here over Catholic participation in a pub lic sch~ol boycott called by civil rights groups to protest segre gation. Shortly before the boycott in mid-October he issued a directive barring use of Catholic parish facilities for "Freedom Schools" for children taking part in the boycott. A similar order was issued by Auxiliary Bishop Roman R. Atkielski, vicar gen

eral. Five Catholic parishes here had announced plans to make their facilities available for "Freedom Schools." However, they obeyed the order not to do 110.

In Five Schools

During the boycott, the Mil waukee Journal published a sur vey of Catholic elementary schools in the city showing that 1,000 of the 1,200 Negro pupils in these schools were concen trated in five parochial schools, while of the remaining 200, more

Pontiff Speaks On Tourism VATICAN CITY (NC)-At an audience granted to the directors of the Italian Touring Club, Pope Paul VI asked them to work toward encouraging the higher eultural and social aspects of tourism as well as its religious "alues. The Church has an interest in tourism, he said, "in its attempts to encourage as much as possible the observance of religious duties by excursionists, travelers and holiday makers." But it is also interested in tourist attrac tions themselves and organized study trips, he stated. "How could one travel in Jtaly without observing the con tinual epiphany of art and reli gious custom? How could we avoid contemplating such treas ures not only in their historical and esthetic aspects, but also and essentially in their spiritual and edifying aspects? "This you ,certainly do already. Therefore you will be pleased to know our satisfaction with this and our encouragement that you may expand tJ1at phase of your work." The occasion of the audience was the 71st anniversary of the establishment of the club.

At University EVANSTON (NC) - Tl'" Catholic chaplain, at Nort~·, western University has m"'~ a charge that the school :

trying to "delay to death" con struction of a new chapel. University officials denied the charge. The controversy came to light at an Evanston zoning meetir>f". whim Msgr. Cornelius McGj11; cuddy asked for variations for the construction of the proposed chapel behind the present one. The proposal also called for ren ovation of the old chapel for a student center. Alban Weber, the school's lawyer, asked the board to de fer action on the petition so the university could negotiate on a different site for the new chapel and center. The school needs the chapel site for a planned student hous ing development, Weber said. Notice Given Msgr. McGillicuddy replied that the university's plans seem to be far in the future and that sufficient notice had been given to avoid delay at this stage. He said that the recent action "seems to be a tactic of delay aimed at slowing the momentum of our fund drive," and that sug gested alternative sites are "each one farther from the center of the cam'pus." William S. Kerr, Northwestern vice president, denied that the school is'trying to delay the con struction, and declared that "firm proposals" for relocation will soon be presented. "A mountian is being made out of a molehill," the official said.

Baltimore See Supports Protest March

BALTIMORE (NC) The archdiocese of Baltimore put its ,official backing behind a march protesting alleged segre gation in housing here. Auxiliary Bishop T. Austin Murphy, acting in the absence of Lawrence Cardinal Shehan, donated $100 to the march in the name of the archliocese. Some)2,000 demonstrators, in cluding priests, nuns, and Reli gious, participated. Father Joseph M. Conr,t0lly,

m.oderator of the Baltimore Catholic Interracial C 0 u n c i I since 1953, charcterized the march as a demonstration to the city "that we. have a legitimate demand for a free and open housing maiJtet, so that any man can live where he wants and can afford to." He said the marchers also wished "to demand that the slum land-lords actively recognize the human dignity of their tenants, and to urge people who live in

the ghetto to organize for power and self-help." , The marchers met in Prince Hall Masons' Grand Lodge, where ~ they held a rally at which Father Connolly offere'd the invocation. From there they went to the chief target of the protest Horizon House, a high':rise a-, partment building now nearing completion, Two Negroes ,were recently denied admission' to Horizon House. They also pick eted a nearby real estate office.

LOS ANGELES (NC) -Ten thousand children were feted at a celebration in the Sports Arena here in recognition of their aid to the missions for the children of the world. Father Augustus O.

Five choirs, representing the children of the world, sang verses of the Lourdes hymn in Swahili, Navajo, Eskimo, Span ish, Japanese and Polynesian. James Francis Cardinal McIn tyre and Auxiliary Bishops Timothy Manning and John War~ of Los Angeles were pres ent. The cardinal distributed awards to schools leading in mis sion efforts. Msgr. Hraold Laubacher, arch diocesan director of the Society for the Propagation of the Faith, said the children provided food, clothing, shelter and education to thousands of children over seas. "All this you do to a degree 'and in a manner unmatched any where in the world. Thanks to you little people of God who show concern for the family of God and make God's parish your own," he said.

Guard Overcomes Leg Injury

Grit Pays-Off for Senior Econ~mics Major

By Phil Perreira Twenty-one-year-old Art Ferrance' ef Fall River is seeing action on the gridiron after a bout with a knee injury which began more than a year ago. Art, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur M. Ferrance of 22 Hunter Street, iil the city of hills, mills and pork pies, pulled the ten dons in his left knee the day be fore the 1964 Boston College football season got underway. It w~ an especially tough break because he wa:s the starting right defensive guard at that time. Built Up Lightweight It wasn't only a tough blow for Art, but for B.C: as well. This passage from the College's Football Facts Book of that year bears' this out: "Art's Spring drill performance was one of the top surprises of the sessions -Art put in extra hours build ing himself up all Winter and then made the extra weight pay off in the Spring." He had to build up his body because, standing at just under six-foot and weighing only 203 pounds, he is a light-weight playing football where 230 pound guards' are a dime a dozen. . Airplane and Miami With a bad knee and out weighed by'· nearly everyone competing for his poSition, the football scene for the future be gan to look pretty gloomy in deed from Arthur Ferrance's vantage point. But there ·was something that Art wanted to be in on. He was not yet ready to be counted out of 'the running for this year's traveling squad to make the trip down to the Orange Bowl to play the Hurri canes of Miami. Art had never been to Miami nor had he been on an airplane before and both of these firsts he made up his mind were going to come his way. So, still' in bandages in the Fall of 64, he made up his mind that he was . going to make not only the team again, but the traveling squad to insure himself a seat on that plane to Miami.

Speaking to 400 participants of a congress of translators of liturgical books, the Pope said liturgical texts approved by competent authority and con firmed by the Holy See "must be religiously preserved." "No one, therefore, may alter, shorten, lengthen, or omit them according to his own' judge ment," he said. "Although the Church shows herself to be a benign and lib eral mother in liturgical matters . . . . * nevertheless, whatever is legitimately established already has the force of ecclesiastical law'" * *" . Pope Paul spoke of the need for s moo t h, understandable translation which retain a no bility and which follow the ori ginal texts.
