Obscenity Rise Threat

To Nation/s Standards

CINCINNATI (NC)-Municipal Court Judge John W. Keefe said here that obscenity is spreading its corruption more widely than ever. Addressing the Cincinnati Masonic Club, the former Court of Appeals judge said that "the problem seems to be growing m<Yre , serious, and the morals of youth are deeply involved in it." Judge Keefe insisted that "le­ gality of the published ma­ books. Newsstand filth; quanti­ all to view - youth and adult terial is the issue, not censor­ tatively, is the overwhelming alike.

Moreover, "contrary to the im­ pression held by some that ob­ scenity is beyond the determina­ tion and definition of a court, the U. S. Supreme Court has ruled that there is such a thing as obscenity capable of legal definition," the jurist said. And the court also declared that "leg­ islation prohibiting the circula­ tion of obscene literature is not in violation of the U. S. Consti­ Mindful that I prove my Faith by tution."

New Fast Decree Demands Person Be Re~ponsibl'e DAVENPORT (NC)-The fact that the new one-hour fast before Communion ap­ plies to alcoholic beverages underlines "the responsibility of the individual to be well pre­ pared" for Communion, a spe­ cialist in Church law said here.

Msgr. J. D. Conway said the relaxation of the Communion fast "leaves it up to the individ­ J,lpal conscience rather than im­ posing a law" to determine whether a person is properly prepared to receive Communion.

It was announced at the close oi the ecumenical council's re­ cent .third· session that Pope Paul VI had reduced the time of fasting before receiving Com­ munion from three hours to one Turn to Page Eighteen

Vizzard, S.J.. director of the Washington office of the National Catholic Rural Life Conference in testimony at a Labor Department hearing on criteria for admitting aliens for temporary work in the U. S. under the Immigration .and Na­ tionality Act. Father Vizzard assailed, the move to bring foreign workers iiito the country under the Im­ migration and Nationality Act as an attempt to. circumvent the expiration, scheduled for Dec. 31, of the bracero program under which Mexican nationals for years have been imported to do farm work.

He said there "seems to be 3ft already existent understanding or agreement, made perhaps at the highest levels, that Mexicaa and other aliens will in fact be admitted in 1965 to do seasonal agricultural labor."

Program Results Pleases Officials In Michigan

Asserts Catholic Colonial Leader Model Jurist

LANSING (NC) - Offic­ ials of one of the nation's first anti-poverty projects are "extremely pleased" with the progress made by students in the program.

"As our experimental program approaches the haff-way mark, we are extremely hopeful our primary goal will be attained," said Francis J. Coomes, execu­ tive director of the Michigan Catholic Conference.

"That goal is to give 150 un­ employable men and women skills necessary to become em­ ployable," he said.

Most students had little or no formal education when they en­ tered the Michigan Catholic Conference Job Training Center here early last Summer.

Placed in Jobs "About half the students pro­ gressed so rapidly they have al­ ready been placed in jobs or are . t a kin g vocational training," Coomes said. °The remaining students are attending basic education classes and will go into vocational training as soon as they complete this phase of the program."

The Job Training Center is being financed by the U. S. De­ partment of Labor and the De­ partment of Health, Education and Welfare. It is sponsored by the Michigan Catholic Co~fer­ ence, which represents .the state's Catholic Bishops.

Directs Masses ,For Housebound BURLINGTON (NC)"7"Bishop Robert F. Joyce has directed that "at least twice each year" in the Burlington diocese Mass be said for sick, invalids or aged "who are housebound in their own homes." , The bishop said the program applies to groups in nursing homes as well as those individ­ ually housed.

A priest offering Mass in an individual home, the Vermont prelate said, may use a "Greek corporal" (special altar cloth used by military chaplains) and any convenient table in the home. He added "efforts should be made to have several present from the family and neighbor­ hood" and that the, vernacular Mass should be used when sev­ eral are present.

He recommended that the program be put into effect in December as a °preparation for Christmas and as a Christmas gift for the housebound."

Pledge To Improve Church-State Ties SAN JUAN (NC)-After re­ c:eiving a congratulatory mess­ age from Gov.-elect Roberto Sanchez of Puerto Rico, Arch­ bishop-designate Luis Aponte of San, Juan pledged his efforts to preserve and improve the is­ land's Church-State relations.

In his message, Sanchez, the Popular Party's successor to Gov. Luis Munoz Marin, said the ap­ pointment of the first native Puerto Rican to archbishop was a source "of pride for all Puerto Ricans of all creeds." He asked a remembrance in the prelate's prayers "for the success of my work on behalf of all Puerto Ricans."

After attending a prayer breakfast with other religious leaders honoring' the' governor and governor-elect, the Arch­ bishop-designate. told newsmen: "I will do all I can to preserve and improve in every way pos­ sible the good relations now ex­ isting between the Church and the present government in Puer­ k) Rico."

Hoover pledged that so long as he heads the FBI, it will stay within the bounds of its author­ ized jurisdiction, regardless of "pressure groups which seek to use the FBI to attain their oWn selfish aims to the detriment of our people as a whole."

To the congregation of jurists, lawyers and public officials Msgr. Joseph G. Bailey, rector of St. Mary's cathedral, cited as a model Charles Carroll, Mary­ land colonial leader.

Carroll, a cousin of Archbishop John Carroll, first U. S. bishop, was denied a vote in the Mary­ land colony because at the time Catholics were penalized by the law, the monsignor said.

Later he was a signer of the Declaration of Independence, a member of the Contifl,ental Con­ gress and served in the first U. S. Senate.

Carroll formulated the clause in the Bill of Rights which pro­ vides: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibit the free exercise thereof," the monsignor said.

Msgr. Bailey lauded Carron as .a patriot who was faithful both to his country's public ser­ vice and to "the principles of his religion and to the' Christian tra9ition upon which t'he law of this country rests."

LOS ANGELES (NC)-Father Mathias Kim, a visitlng pastor from Korea, related here how he electrified his parish as a ~esuJt of applying directives of recent papal encyclicals.

He brought light to 23 villages in St. Peter's parish, 30 miles south of Seoul. The 44-year-old former seminary professor said he obtained small hydro-electric generators and installed them over rivers and streams in his parish. Villagers who had had only oil lamps for ages now have adequate light at night and power during the day to operate tools and grain mills.

"I read in the encyclicals of Leo XIII, Pius XII and John XXIII that farmers' living stand­ ards should be equal to those of the cities," Father Kim re­ counted.

Episcopal Bishop Backs Fair Bus Law in Ohio CINCINNATI (NC) - A Protestant prelate has called for state legislation enabling Ohio school boards to give bus transportation to parochial and private school pupils on the same basis as public school pu­ pils.

Bishop Roger W. Blanchard of the Protestant Episcopal Diocese· of Southern Ohio, in a letter to an official of the Citizens for Educational Freedom, expressed his endorsement of the "fair bus bill" sponsored by CEF. He called on the Ohio General Aseembly to "enact into law fair school bus legislation which will provide bus transportation for all children attending state accredited schools on the same basis as now afforded our public school children."

Children's Safety He said that "the health and safety of all school children is a eoncern of the state," and that the state attorney general "has stated that legislative action is necessary b e for e non-public school children may be furnished transportation in public school buses."

Bishop Blanchard also pointed out that the recent general con­ vention of the Protestant Epis­ eopal Church "recognized the propriety of including non­ public school children in genera} public welfare programs such as school bus transportation."

Agree Freedom Essential in Church At Heart of Christianity, Theologians Say WASHINGTON (NC) - Two of the world's best known Cath­ olic theologians declared here that freedom lies at the very heart of Christianity.

This point was stressed in the opening address to a conference on "Freedom and Man" by Father Karl Rahner, S.J., and in the conference closing address

by Father Hans Kueng.

The history of salvation and revelation, which includes the history of Christian theology, is • • • a history of the thematic self-reflexion of man upon him­ self as a free being," said Father Rahner, author of many theolog­ ical works and a faculty member at the University of Munich.

Two Soviet Youths Catholic Converts MUNICH (NC) -Two young students at Moscow's Lenin Teachers Institute caused a furor last month when they were bap­ tised as Catholics at St. Louis Catholic Church in Moscow.

According to Radio Liberty, the Russian-language radio sta­ tion which beams its programs into the Soviet Union, the action was particularly galling to the Soviets because one of the youths, identified as Vladimir Krutikov, had just been ap­ pointed a political instructor for Komsomol, the communist youth organization.

Krutikov and Vladimir Kha­ zanov were received into the Church after first declaring in a letter that "we caimot endure it any longer. The Church and re­ ligion are our last refuge."

tion's oldest Catholic institution of higher education.

Participating in the conference were many of Europe and Amer­ ica's leading theologians, includ­ ing some who have played major roles at the ecumenical council.

Father Kueng, a leading figure in the ranks of liberals at the council, made a strong plea for freedom in theology.

"If there were in the Church only one united theology in the sense of one united party, only one single theological party line, this would be a sign not of Cath­ olic freedom but of uncatholic regimentation," he said. "The faith which is rooted in the un­ fathomable depths of God's Word • * * is too rich to be exhausted or contained by anyone theol­ ogy."

the "hard" and the "soft sell" to a group of 30 priests from eight /ltates at a meeting here in Illinois.

Then Thomas Mullaney told the priests at the second national Carmelite vocation seminar in Carmel High School: "The prin­ ciples of sales and marketing in the business world can and should be applied to vocation re­ cruiting. The paramount motive of man is to become spiritually better, and unless we can de­ velop this, it can be lost."

At the meeting arranged by Father Myles Colgan, O. Carm., Carmelite provincial vocation director, Mullaney said a mar­ keteer must have a good product to sell and added that selling is the primary function of market­ ing.

He detailed such phases of marketing as buying and selling, transportation and storage, standardization, financing, re­ search and asserted: "We can apply these to vocation recruit­ ing because there is need for more vocations and because the principles, if applied properly, are basically correct for both situations."

Organization Essential "The most important function is selling," Mullaney declared.

"The vocation to the priesthood or religious life is a wanted product, something boys are willing to strive for. Advertising and promotion must be done systematically and continuously but always with the boy, the prospective candidate, in mind.

'Publicity should be to inform the public about vocations, build up good will for Carmelites and project the personality of the order. Organization is essential, too."

Pilgrim Pope

Ellensi.1

PAVU

The. felicitous trip of the Holy Father to India, the warmth of his welcome there, the unrestrained enthusiasm that greeted him in the great country-all this surprised even the most optimistic and certainly demolished the fears of those who questioned the wisdom of a journey that might embarrass or lessen the position of the Vicar of Christ.

REV. JAMES A. CLARK

Assistant Director

latin American Bureau, NCWC

As a pilgrim, the Pope moved among all manner of persons and the simplicity of his approach marked him as a true man of God. He has recalled 'this dimension of the ­

Papacy-that a good man is not the less in any sense for walking among men but that his presence in their midst communicates the good will and love of God and brotherly feeling that he himself possesses.

He has reminded Oatholics and others, by this journey and by his trip to Jerusalem last January, that the Church is a Church that does not fear the world because the Holy Spirit breathes within her. The Church does not establish itself as a ghetto, fearful of contagious contact with others.

The Church does not establish itself as a medieval walled eity condescending to welcome only those coming to it with timidity of approach. The Church, rather, goes· out to all men and with charity extends to them the hand of goodness and of truth. There is no compromise of doctrine but rather the living expression of the doctrine of love of God and neighbor. This, men understand, and this gives the Church relevance in thejr lives. It is not enough to tell people what Catholicism is in scholarly presentations or even in pastoral expositions. They look beyond the papers and want to see the person and the deeds. And the person and the deeds are the Person and deeds of Christ that they wish to see in those who bear and share His Name-Christians. Pope Paul has shown men in himself the person and deeds of Christ.

ance, yes-but joy?

How many people seem any happier after Sunday Mass than they were before? (Except of course, for those who "find the duty so painful that its fulfill­ ment is a great relief.)

The First Reading teaches us something about the' quality of this "joy" we are supposed to feel. It is a consequence of con­ fidence and trust, of peace and the absen.ce of anxieties, of thanksgiving for God's saving work.

MONDAY~Mass as on Sun­ day. If joy is a consequence of faith, then the liturgy of the Church, our public worship, which both expresses and feeds faith should do the same for joy. Sunday Mass, particularly, should express it as the weekly reunion of the community of the covenant, the community of hope.

This is why the current re­ form of Catholic worship makes so much of singing. Nothing ex­ presses joy quite as authentically as song. Hymns and psalms, in which the congregation takes part as well as the choir, will in­ creasingly be a part of normal Catholic worship.

TUESDAY-Mass as on Sun­ day. Our worship, too, must nourish joy. By pointing, as does John the Baptist in the Gos­ pel lesson, to the cause of our joy: Christ our Lord. So that every time we experience His Word and the breaking of the Bread of His body, we are charged again with the convic­ tion of our worth and of the Fath~r's love.

The holy Bread we share is even more than future promise.

Because it is future promise, it is present peace and reconcilia­ tion, fount of deep joy, WEDNESDAY OF EMBER WEEK. The three lessons of this Ember day Mass teach of the future promise. The Word of God, who comes among us in our flesh, is also King and Judge, with an ultimate mastery over all creation.

The Gospel assures us, "his kingdom shall never have an end." And both of the Old Tes­ tament readings show Him "re­ fusing what is bad, choosing what is good" (Second Reading).

His teaching carries the built-in guarantee that we shall be judged by it.

while we women washed the dishes. While disposing of some f)f the extra food a discus­ sion broke out which at times even drew the men from the game. The topic was to find out what we can do for Latin Amer­ ica and the other underprivileged areas. 1 guess we were really trying to salve our conscience after such a sumptuous meal.

Eventually someone recalled reading in the Anchor about what people could do. We pon­ dered your suggestions and each of us decided to follow up on one activity."

"I decided that the first thing for me to do was to read about Latin America because 1 know little about it. 1 am not very ed­ ucated and would appreciate your recommendation of a book which is untechnical and yet factual. What do you suggest?"

This letter from a Mrs. Ora Steele was the most interesting response to a column on "What Can 1 Do?" For Mrs. Steele and others similarly concerned 1 can recommend several good books.

A scholarly study, the book "Latin America" by Preston James :s among the classic books on Latin America. A more pop­ ular study is "Missionary Crisis and Challenge in Latin America"

by Brother Robert· Wood. "Reli­ gion, Revolution and Reform" contains chapters by the Presi­ dent of Chile, a Chilean Jesuit sociologist, and a former Chilean seminary professor (now a bish­ op in Panama).

The best current book for an average reader is one that is convenient to the pocketbook because it is a pocketbook priced at ninety-five cents, and to the mind because it is popularly written. °Today's Latin AlJler­ ica" by Rutgers University pro­ fessor Robert J. Alexander sur­ veys the total Latin American scene in only 250 pages. A Doubleday Anchor Book it is sprinkled with intriguing items such as the flow of traffic in Brasilia, the outlawing of bull­ fighting in most ~~atin countries, and the fascination of a paint­ ing tucked in the corner of a Peruvian cathedral.

All of the major topics are dis-­ cussed (land, people, military, economy, politics, etc.) along with a rarely-found chapter on Latin art, music and culture. The only reservation is that Mr. Alexander writes unabashedly from a North American view­ point and also as a person un­ familiar with Catholic terms and philosophy. We might have hop­ ed for a kinder treatment of the Church. Unable to see the spir­ itual values behind past Church activities, Mr. Alexander pre­ sents unwary readers with a stilted view of Church efforts.

With this sole exception the book gives a good knowledge of "Today's Latin America."

If you are wondering what you can do, reading this might be the first step!

By Mary Tinley Daly NMandate." That term-of-the-day has come to our ltouse. T.o us was granted the happy mandate ofearing for two grandbabies while their parents flew to Europe.

I-n away, it seemed, Mary and Tim pulled a fast one on two. year-oldT.J. and his .eight­ month old sister, Tara, by hilarating splash; trying to catch simply walking Qut while the raindrops against a window pane; trudging through fallen, youngsters slept....,. an infor­ . crackling leaves; playing with

mal farewell showing more sense than· sentimentality. Ex­ pecting a· sob­ bing call, "Mom­ my! Daddy!", we listened wit h trepidation for the morning awakening ac­ eompanied by the rock-rocking efa crib. "That's all right, T.J.," we soothed, opening the door to the improvised nursery.

"That's all right, baby· • ." °Toast!" shouted the blond boy.

-roast, toast, toast!"

A slice brought smiles and chuckles as we dressed our guest.

Who supplied it couldn't have mattered less, thank goodness.

From then on was smooth Bailing, just following detailed ilaily schedule prepared ~ Mary. . It's Challenge Like a juggler or a circus rider long out of pracice, we did find that correlating duties in those two parallel columns-one head­ ed Tara, the other T.J.-was a challenge to our slowed-down adult pace. "Tara, bath; T.J., play" in the same time-segment is a for -instance.

"Tara, bath" bit was easy as we embarked on the job upstairs -until we heard a resounding crash in the kitchen, reminding liS that a two-year-old need not, H he so chooses, necessarily stay in a playpen during the pe­ riod marked "play." Pots and pans are always more fun than toys. (Lesson I resulted in bath­ mg red-headed Tara, at the kitchen sink where we could watch T.J. out of the eorner of an eye.)

Almost imperceptibly came a metamorphosis in our days, and a baby-proofing of our house­ as though the clock had been turned back many years: T.J.'s high chair at the breakfast table, Tara's "throne".,-that marvel of engineering genius that straps a fat baby into comfortable semi­ reclining position like that as­ sumed by the Romans of old. We re-learned turning kettle handles in toward the center of the stove, keeping knives and scissors and tippable vases· out of reach; playpen and tops conveniently handy for both outdoor and in; to work in the daily wash of small garments and keep the "Daly flags" flying. That's what a neighbor used to call our diaper line.

Pleasures long forgotten in oUT somewhat prosaic life were res­ urrected: the fun babies ha.ve stretching out in Ii bath, feeling warm water· slithering away .oapsuds, kicking .legs in an ex­

aging Magoo who almost regain­ ed her puppyhood in their pres­ ence; walks to the grocery store, finding an assortment of riches at the cereal shelves; the hungry delight of stowing away quan­ tities of bland food; rockings and lullabies, the good-night routine of snuggling down in. fresh nightclothes.

Balf-Forgotten Fun W a: t chi n g development of achievement, even during a pe­ ri9d of weeks, was fun we had almost forgotten: Tara striving for independence in feeding her­ self, with sloppy but not-too-dis­ astrous results, getting a brand new tooth; T.J. gaining expertise at the perennial game of patty cake. Also, T.J., who is at the stage of delivering eloquent ser­ mons or speeches, complete with inflections and gestures (but not one word of English) gradually pickeli up recognizable words, especially one he over-played to his own advantage, "cookie."

One thing, and one thing only., bothered the spoiled grandpar­ ents-at first. That was the 6 A.M. crowing from the nursery.

"Hi, Tawa," T.J. would shout.

His sister, delighted with the attention, would crow right back.

Then, to show he was a man of action as well as words, he would rock, rock and rock that crib: Bang, bang, bang, finally climbing over the side.

By this time, if lazy grand­ parents hadn't yet responded ­ well, there were always the clothes to be emptied out of the

chest of drawers.

Lazy grandparents learned:

same time hopeful book.

More, possibly, than any other one volume, it illsutrates ·the growing awareness of today's Catholic husbands and wives that it is up to them to aid in the formation of a theology of marriage. The Council Fathers have all· but asked for guidance in this' matter from the laity, who live the pFobl~ms that the priesthooq can see but from the outside; and this book is an honest attempt to begin an assessment of the situation as it really. exists.

Michael Novak) known for his book.. "The Open Church," a study 01. the Vatican Council, says Of the present volume: . "This unusual collection of essays grew out of the conviction' that lay Catholics have said in pubUc only. a fraetion of what they have to' say 'about the ·ac"'; tual experience of Catholic mar.. riage."

Frank DilieUSSlons Mr. Novak asked' 13 couples, scattered across' the United States, to put into words their feelings with regard to the place of sex and family. planning in Catholic marriage. Their frank discussions, protected by anonymity, shows how Church doctrine with regard to sex affects the "psychological, moral and economic life of married Cath-· olics." , One couple admits frankly that it is practicing birth cpntrol for what seems to it sufficient reasons. Many are attempting to use rhythm, most with indifferent success, and it is often regarded as an enemy of the joy that l'lhould be found in marria~. ~is' outspoken book may shock .some, but its appearance at this time in' Church history is' a sign, in fact, 01. growing maturity and willingness te . accept responsibility' on the part .fthe laity. .'

Children Claim Annua I Corner On 'Beautiful Book Market It's Christmas again and the children have claimed their annual corner on the beautiful book market. It s~ems a law 'of publishers that the younger the child, the more beautiful the book; and the only sad element enters in when those little hands, "the heir of all the ages," as BellOc remarked, begin to tear "those beautiful thick pages." However, maintaining a careful watch for miscreants, children should by all means be· encouraged to enjoy books at the earliest

pO$Sible age. This process is helped along immeasurably when really lovely books are' found beneath the Christmas tree; for, jolly and arti$tically worthwhile as the quarter books often are, there's still something very SPecial about the costly book upon which publisher,au';' thor and. arti~t have lavished loving-and expensive--eare.

Hold Clinics for Undernourished Babies Missioner on Formosa Learns Use of Suppl~"'~

YUAN LIN (NC)-Twice each week the yard outside the ~hurch here is filled with mothers and babies.

Most of the babies don't look too healthy. They seem definite­ ly undernourished. That's why they are here.

They are attending the nutri­ tion clinic operated by the pas­ tor of Yuan Lin, Father Joseph Cosgrove, M.M. Father Cosgrove, of Newton, Mass., walks about, talking to the mothers, calling the babies by name, and commenting on their progress.

"This poor child has only started to corne," he says, pat-·

ting on the head of a thin baby of about eight months in his mother's arms. "If you returned here in six months you would not recognize the child."

Two years ago Father Cos­ grove decided that to a great extent the supplies donated through Catholic Relief Ser­ vices-National Catholic ,Welfare Conference were failing to ac­ complish the good they should with undernourished babies.

The mothers didn't know how to use the milk powder, butter oil, flour and bulgur, for the greatest benefit of the small children. Fr. Cosgrove acted. He checked with the Sisters at the

Maryknoll clinic at Changhua, learned how to put back the but­ ter .oil into the non-fat powder for babies. He heard how milk prepared with poly-drops, a multi-vitamin formula, would make up for the deficiences in a baby's diet.

For two years this veteran of the China missions, formerly a priest in south China, has been operating two nutrition clinics in his parish.

"Here in the town of Yuan Lin we have 'graduated' over 100 babies in the past two years.

When they had completed the course they were normal, healthy babies."

Catholics Express Varied Opinion's on Use

Of Vernacular in Mass

English in the Mass seems to have won warm. approval, al­ though a nationwide survey shows some persons have reser­ vations.

Most lay people rated the En­ glish helpful to making the Mass more meaningful and some saw the vernacular service as afford­ ing .. powerful new tool in con­ vert work. , On the other hand, others felt the new postures' at Mass had too much standing,' a few persons wanted the whole Mass in En­ glish because the on-again, off­ again English-Latin was said to be difficult to follow, and some were critical of the hymns chosen.

These results showed up in a random nationwide survey of re­ action to introduction of the vernacular in parts of the Latin Rite Mass.

Mrs. Marie Butka of Detroit told a newsman after Mass at St. Athanasius church there that it was a "marvelous experience," but she admitted: °it is going to take time to re-orient myself.

In West Hartford, Conn., on the other hand, James D. Ham­ mel, a businessman, said that while the objectives of the changeover are laudable, "the means being used to obtain them are wrong."

Past Habits Hammel said he thought fuller participation in the Mass was

being accomplished at the ex­ pense of the liturgy. "We should raise the people to the level of the Mass, not bring the Mass down to the level of the people, as we have now done," he said.

Another businessman, inter­ viewed in Rockville Center, N.Y., rated the use of English "excellent," but said "it is dif­ ficult to get away from past habits at Mass."

In Fresno, Calif., all reactions were favorable, except for a veteran priest who said: "There' is too much standing; this is too hard on the older people."

His reaction was shared by Mrs. Lois Meyer at St. Bridget's parish, West Hartford, Conn., who commented: "Too much standing, I can pray better when I'm on my knees."

Advises DespondentWoman To Seek Professionai Help

By John J. Kane, Ph.,D. .

"Can a Catholic get a divorce? I have decided to ask my husband to leave our home. After 15 years of marriage and seven children in eight years I am worn out. My hus­ pand's work keeps him out of the home a great deal because we have severe financial the innocent, your chil­ problems. But he drinks dur­ again, dren, will be the victims. ing the leisure hours he has.

Explains Separation He tries to stop but it only Matters are not quite so black

lasts at best two weeks. Then he is back at it again. I have thought of suicide and only worry over what would happen to the ehildren prevents it."

1Wargaret, your first prob­ lem is yourself.

You r present mental condition is a serious matter and de­ mands immedi­ ate attention. You must put the thought of suicide entirely out of your mind. But telling Y3U to do so is meaningless. You should~ seek professional hel9. I strongly advise you to tell your physician that you have been or are thinking of suicide. He can then advise the necessary therapy.

I don't know how oftSln or how dee ply you have suicidal thoughts. But this is an area in which one does no·, take chanc~s.

Eighty per cent of persons who commit suicide have either threatened or attempted it. That is why I urge you to act NOW. The old notion that people who threaten suicide never commit it is an old wives' tale.

Common Problems A large family, financial prob­ lems and a husband who drinks excessively are by no means un­ common problentB in marriage.

But the fact that they are com­ mon does not mean that they can 'be viewed lightly.

I am not asking you to view them lightly, but I do want you to gain some perspective, which at the moment you lack. 'It is not so much what happens to us in life that counts. It is how we view or how we react to what happens that really matters.

As difficulties seem to multi­ ply and as solutions seem to fade, discouragement is inevi­ table. Every human being has a breaking point. For some it is high. For others it is low. On the basis of your letter you ap­ pear to be near yours.

But your situation is not im­ possible. To begin with you have s eve n children. You have thought of what would happen to them if you commit suicide.

Let me enlarge on it a bit.

Carries Stigma Suicide, among those not men­ tally ill, which, incidentally, pyschiatrists maintain includes most ~uicides, is an act of de­ spair. It does violence to the vir­ tue of hope. While ::mly God can judge ·the disposition of a sui­ cide at the moment of death, the act in itself is morally wrong. It may mean the loss of eternal salvation. Bearing up under the trials :>f life can reap rewards in eternity.

Furthemore, suicide carries with it a stigma. This stigma will be borne by your children and your husband. A furtive whisper behind their backs, a knowing nod and sometimes an outright eutting remark about it will be their lot. Surely, your children are suffering enough now. You do not want to add to their prob­ lems by a selfish, temporal es­ cape.

Since your husband is at least • problem drinker, your suicide ~uld tip the scales and send him into a true alcoholism. Who can gain anything by this? Once

as you paint them. Your hus­ band's drinking seems to be at once the result and partly the cause of your financial ~rob­ lems. Perhaps the money spent on liquor, if saved, could' ease the economic problem.

Your husband does make ef­ forts to give up drinking, al­ though they are short lived. Try to persuade him to seek help. I doubt he will make it alone. Ask him to see one of the parish priests or his physician. It seems you have a lever which can be used, since you are about to as:t him to leave the home~ The Catholic '::hurch under certain circumstances does peru r,.it limited divorce, i.e., a sep­ aration from bed and board. But the marital bond is not broken and neither party may remarry while the other spouse lives.

This is only done for grave rea­ sons and requires ecclesiastical permission.

Dangerous Gamble This is a big step and should not be undertaken lightly. Even if we assume permission were given, what are the probable consequences? You are depend­ ent upon him for financial sup­ port. If there is now difficulty maintaining one home, how much more difficult to maintain two?

It is impossible to predict your husband's reaction to a separation. It might bring him to his senses. It might also send him further down the road to alcoholism, the loss of his job and his health. You see it is rather a big gamble, and I fear a highly dangerous one.

You must also realize that your mood of black despair is not conducive to a happy family life. So again I say, start with yourself.

Medical Matter You admit you are worn out physically. There is such a close association between physical and mental health that it is likely your physical health is contrib­ uting to your mental distress.

This is' a medical matter and must be handled by a physician.

In this respect you too help to create a problem no matter how unwittingly. Certainly your present attitudes may be harm­ ing your chilldren's lives. They may also increase your hus­ band's tensions and his conse­ quent drinking.

You may reject what I have just written. This would not surprise me becaase it is hard for any of us to be objective about ourselves. It is always so much easier to place the blame on another party.

Seek Help Here is where good marital counseling has its place. A com­ petent counselor can help you to step outside yourself and look at your problem clearly and with less self-consciousness. Obvious­ ly your husband must do the same.

To summarize what I have written, I think you should seek immediate help from a physician regarding your physical and mental condition. I think you and your husband should seek professional help.

Pa rish S;witches Patron Saints MONTREAL (NC)-A parish in suburban La Salle is switch­ ing patron saints.

Established ih 1957 and placed under the patronage of St. Bar­ bara, the parish will move into the new ultra-modern rosette­ shaped church early in 1965 and wm be dedicated under the patronage of St. John Brebeuf, one of the North American Jes­ uit Martyrs who was put to death by Iriquois Indians in 1549.

Father M. D. Dubee, pastor, said there are "strong doubts concerning the very existence of St. Barbara," re.puted to have been a fourth century Roman martyr. A decree signed in Rome

by Emile Cardinal Leger of Montreal allowed the switch in pa~ron saints for the parish.

"We wanted to compile an au­ thentic life of our patron but all our investigati.ons led to the conclusion that the so-called facts concerning Barbara's life were without historical founda­ tion," said Father· Dubee.

The pastor said he wrote to a number of Church historians, all of whom agreed that eventually the commemoration of St. Bar­ bara on Dec. 4 will be abolished.

Out of Russia The saga of 23 years as a priest tn Soviet prisons and labor camps is told by Walter J. Cis­ zek, S.J. in "With God in Rus­ sia" (McGraw-Hill, $5.95). The story of how Father Ciszek con­ tinued to function as a priest no matter what his circumstances, in an odyssey of heroism. Re­ leased last year, he is now at Fordham University.

Coming into his own ~s a thinker and philosopher rated by some with St. Thomas Aqui­ nas is Pierre Teilhard de Char­ din, S.J. His newest posthumous­ ly published book is "The Future of Man" (Harper and Row, $5).

It elaborates and expands his theory of a noosphere, or "layer of thought" covering the earth as does the biosphere, and it presents evidence and argu­ ments for his great vision of an ultra-humanity climaxing in the Omega point-or God. "If Any Man Thirst" by Mother Mary Simeon, S.H.C.J. (Bruce, $3.25) is a study of the Eucharist and will be welcomed spiritual reading by many. Spir­ itual reading of a special kind is "The Priest and Womanhood"

by Ottilie Mosshamer (Newman, $5.75). This is a study of the re­ lationship of the priest to women and it is perhaps a mark of the coming of age of the laity in the church that it is written by a woman, a German social worker.

It seems to suffer somewhat in translation, but it abounds in worthwhile insights and both priest and Catholic womanhood

The book presents Kennedy Senior as a hard-driving busi­ ness man. One is not sure what he would make of "Of Poetry and Power: Poems Occasioned by the Presidency and by the Death of John F. Kennedy" (Basic Books, $5.95), but one is quite certain it must be among the treasures of Jacqueline Ken­ nedy.

The book, edited by Erwin A. Glikes and Paul Schwaber, is an effort to do for Kennedy what was not done for Lincoln until 30 years after his assassination: to gather the outstanding poetic tributes occasioned by the man­ ner of his death. Seyenty-nine American and British poets are represented and there is a fore­ word by Arthur Schlesinger Jr. The common feeling of the poets, writing ;n varied meters and forms, is expressed by Ruth Landshoff Yorck: "We may stop worrying. Our best man died.

We know of no one now we can not spare"; by Robert Watson; "Now six gray horses draw you to where you are, Not to Ver­ sailles, Sparta, or Athens. The seventh horse is wild and black and riderless"; and by W. H . .\uden: "Remembering his death, How we choose to live will de­ cide its meaning. When a just man dies, Lamentation and praise, Sorrow and joy are one."

can benefit from its reading.

"A Book of Comfort", an an­ thology selected by the well­ known novelist, Elizabeth Goudge (Coward-McCann, $6.95), is ,a treasury of prose and poetry offering wisdom and con­ solation for the difficulties and challenges of life." That's a large order, but Miss Goudge has relied heavily on the famil­ iar and time-tested in poetry and prose and has indeed compiled a treasury that seems like an old friend the first time it is taken in hand. Her list of com­ forts, into which the book is divided, includes that of crea­ tion, of delighting each other, of faith, of imagination, and comfort in tribulation.

Two Paperbacks A handy paperback volume is "The Lives of the Saints" by Omer Englebert (Collier, $1.95).

Arranged according to their feasts in the Church calendar are 2,300 saints, with brief bio­ graphical notes on each. o Atheism in Our Time" by Ignace Lepp (Macmillan, $1.45) examines and attempts to ex­ plain the modern varieties of un­ belief. A useful reference vol­ ume.

How they cared for themselves and saved a young family into the bargain makes an engrossing tale.

"John Fitzgerald Kennedy: Man of Courage" by Flora Strousse (Kenedy, $2.50) is yet another telling of the Kennedy saga, well done for this age group. ' Budding romance is the hall­ mark of teen-age novels, and here are three that pass the test.

In "Dennie's Way" by Mary Malone (Dodd, Mead, $3.50) shy Deenie contends with high school, boy trouble and the prob­ lems of her own slightly offbeat personality.

"Classmates by Request" by Hila Colman (Morrow, $3.25) explores the problem of integra­ tion on the high school level.

S~vs Jesuit. Father Fichter

Model for Social Scientists

By Rev. Andrew M. Greeley One of the nice things about the aggiornamento is that so many of its prophets are now getting the rewards they never expected and never sought but richly deserve. A small announcement in the Catholic press recently revealed that such a pioneer has re­ ceived one of the highest But the r~al da?ge~ for the . d d to younger socIal sCIentIsts who h onors ever awar e an follow after Father Fichter i American Gatholic scholar; not the fears of the right no~

Father Joseph Fichter, the re­ owned Jesuit sociologist has been appointed Charles Chaun­ c e y S till _

man professor

of Roman Cath­ olic Studies at

the Harvard

Divinity School.

Empirical social

research has

become so com­ . . pletely accepted, not to say pop­ ular wit h i n American Catholicism that it is easy to forget that not too many years ago it was highly suspect.

Some argued that sociology was opposed to theology, others felt that it would reveal things which would comfort the enemies of the Church, while still others suspected that it had to be part of a Communist plot.

Bore Burden Father Fichter had to bear the burden of these suspicions and misunderstandings and surely must have had more than his share of lonely years. The sup­ pression of the final three vol­ umes of his monumental "South­ ern Parish" was not only a trag­ edy for sociology and for the Church; it was also the kind of personal blow from which lesser men would not have recovered.

Curiously enough, at the very time when he was most under a cloud within the Church (and one suspects at'times even with­ in his own order) his reputation and influence among professional social scientists was rapidly in­ creasing.

He was engaged in the "dia­ logue" long before the word be­ came popular. It is only fitting that he now comes to playa role of key importance in the dia­ logue.

New Skepticism The honors that have come to him in recent years are a sym­ bol of the disappearance of the old suspicions about value free empirical social research. There are only, a few viewers-with­ alarm who still talk about the need to suppress findings that -"'~are unflattering - that curious group of men who feel that the Catholic Church has something to fear from the truth.

Indeed there has arisen a new skepticism about social science, a skepticism of the left, which is inclined to dismiss empirical data at odds with its own cliches as nose counting.

Committment Need For these skeptics, the careful rigorous precision of Father Fichter's research is unbearable; it leaves no room for their gran­ diose generalizations and arm­ chair panaceas. Their minds are made up and they hardly care be de disturbed by facts.

MILWAUKEE (NC)-Metho­ dist Bishop Ralph T. Alton of Madison said here one of the persons who gave him reason to be thankful on Thanksgiving Day is Pope Paul VI. The Bishop told the Kiwanis Club at Memorial Center that he was thankful the Pontiff contin­ ued the Vatican Council and has kept the "windows and doors onO'n in th.<> Catholic Church."

the obscurantism to the left. It is that they will become so pro­ fessionalized, so "value free," so empirical that they will not be able to be committed to so­ cial action.

Here the lesson of Father Fichter's life must not be ig­ nored. Even though he has never permitted his values to inter­ fere with the careful collection of the data and precise analy­ sis of findings, he has never per­ mitted himself to be uncommit­ ted to the society which he is studying.

Social science and social ac­ tion are two very different areas of human activity; one- is calm, ?cademic~ theoretical; the other IS dynamIC, concrete, practical.

Scholarship, Action One requires reflection and contemplation, the other re­ quires commitment and involve­ ment; even though they are re­ lated and may provide material for each other, they are not the same, and a confusion between them Clln lead to disaster because they require two different styles of activity.

The temptation therefore is f(' t.he social scientist to leave the action to others, to argue that he must study while others act.

For Joseph Fichter this temp­ tation does not seem to' have been serious. While he never confused research and action, he has never been inclined to with­ draw into an academic ivory tower-to put the'matter mildly.

His blending of the man of scholarship and the man ,of ac­ tion in one human personality provides, a model which those who come after him could well afford to imitate.

New Fast Decree Continued from Page One hour for both laymen and priests.

At the time, however, it was not made clear whether the re­ laxation applied to alcoholic beverages as well as to solid foods and other liquids. But L'Osservatore Romano, the Vat­ ican City daily nE~wspaper, in an official interpretation said it does.

Dispositions At the same time, referring to drinking alcoholic beverages, the newspaper said: "Ch.ristian com­ mon sense teaches us that the mind must not be troubled spiribal dispositions must not be diminished, which are neces­ sary for a reverential contact with Christ in the E:ucharist."

Jim Burns of Coyle Is ·Dean

Of Bristol County Coaches

Proteges Swell Coachiln9 RQ~kS

By Fred Bartek '"There is a sense of satisfaetion when you see one of your former players come along to j<>in the coaching ranks with you," observed the dean of all- Bristol County coaches, Jim Bums of Msgr. James Coyle High in Taunton, today as he reminisced about his 31 years in athletics iLt the gave up the court coaching as­ in 195~recalled that diocesan school. And, Jim signment two of his former players, Bob Bums, who is respected and O'Connell and Rip Regan are

admired by all, has enjoyed the satisfaction of building the coaching ranks more than any other individ­ ual in these parts. "It's not so much the victories and defeats as it is building char­ acter in your proteges," com­ mented the Coyle grid mentor who took up his present duties when the Taunton school opened in 1933. ­ Builds Men "True, everybody likes to win but there is more to competitive athletics _-than victories alone," averred the county dean of schooboy eoaches who has gar­ nered more than his share of titles for the secondary institu­ tion which is operated by the Holy Cross Brothers.

"It is likewise true that there is a sense of satisfaction when you see one of your boys -go on to college to establish a reputa­ tion for himself," Bums reclared as he signalled out a number who have excelled on the colle­ giate gridiron.

"Of course, Carlin Lynch at Bishop Stang High School in North Dartmouth is the most successful former Coyle player in the coaching ranks thus far," Jim Bums asserted.

In Many Loeales "Charley Connell who helps Carlin as an assistant at Stang is another one of our boys as ill Joe Tavares who served last year as an aide to Lynch.

And, there is also John O'Brien, the head basketball man at Stang, both a Coyle graduate and also a former Coyle hoop coach," the former Notre Dame U:niversity atqlete said. (Ed. Note: The Tavares to whom Burns alluded is the same individual who drew the carica­ ture of Burns on this page.)

How many other former Coyle players are coaching today?" the veteran football and baseban mentor was asked. .Justifiably Proud "Let's start with you," said Burns to this writer. "You are now assisting at Bishop Feehan High School in Attleboro. And, there is your brother Peter who is handling the head coaching grid reins at neighboring Norton High School. Peter started as an assistant to Carlin Lynch at Stang while he was going to Providence College."

"With you ·at Feehan in Attie­ boro, two assistant coaches, Peter Gazzola and Homer Roy, gradu­ ated from 'our school'. " "Right here at,. Coyle, Jim Lanigan is the head basketball coach. Bobby Lane assists in football and basketball and is the head track coach. Stan Koss, another of our Coyle boys, is an assistant basketball coach," Burns noted.

Jim Sullivan at nearby Som­ erset High is another Coyle graduate. Jim is head football coach, having succeeded Lynch When the latter accepted his present post at Stang.

Dick Arletta currently works as an assistant football and bas­ ketball coach at Fairhaven High.

Also in the Greater Brockton area, .Bob Quegan is coaching at Rockland High while steve Tur­ calo used to direct the grid ac­ tivities at Randolph.

Walter Scanlon, who relin­ quished the football coaching job at Dighton-Rehoboth to as­ sume the duties of athetic direc­ tor at that regional high school, is another well known former Coyle graduate.

"And down on Cape Cod we have a former Warrior letter­ man in Dennis Dwyer at Barn­ stable. John Gray used to coach at Bourne, to Coach Burns ob­ served.

Star in College At the western end of Massa­ chusetts, ''Butch'' Mackery ill well known in the coaching ranks because of his numerous successful teams. His brother "Porky" is equally well known as an official. ''Right here in Taunton, two former Coyle players served as football coaches at Taunton High. They are John Carroll and Hamilton Lane. The latter also coached basketball," Burns said as he was pressed to continue the list of former players who are teaching the rudiments of contact athletics to a younger generation.

"Over at Mansfield, Bill Sul­

livan, the basketball coach, ill

another of our boys," the Taun­

tonian added as he swelled the

long list of Coyle athletes of whom he is humbly proud.

Among the well known Coyle athletes who went on to college to establish names for them­ selves, C 0 a c h Burns listed Thomas McCann, John Carroll, and Carlin Lynch, who excelled at Holy Cross. "And there was Dave Yelle, Rip Regan, Fran Gallagher, Bob Quegan; who played for the Boston College Eagles on Chestnut Hill.

Well Known Players ­ Bill Sullivan -and Bob O'Con­ nell continued their football ca';' reers at Fordham University in New York.

Walt Scanlon and the late Leo Quegan, who was killed in World War II, earned their let­ ters at Providence College in the days when the Dominicans were represented on the collegiate gridiron.

The late Casimir Malinowski was a wen known Georgetown University' football player, the Coyle coach recalled.

After two years in the South, Bums returned to his native New England when he accepted the three-sport coaching job at the Taunton diocesan school when it opened its doors to the boys of the area seeking a Cath­ olic secondary education. He directed all three sports until five years ago when he relin­ quished the basketball assign­ ment to his former protege, John O'Brien. The latter, now the Stang hoop coach, was suc­ ceeded by the present mentor, Jim Lanigan.

There have been seven prin­ cipals. at Coyle during Burns' 31­ year stay, Brother Marcian, Brother Richard, Brother Owens, Brother Ralph, Brother Hughes and the present principal, Broth­ er Thomas. The late Rev. Ray­ mond Burgoin also _ served as headmaster during the 1940's.

DETROIT (NC) - The Titans of the University of Detroit, who· played their first intercollegiate football game on Thanksgiving Day, 1896, and lost, have aban­ doned the sport.

Father Laurence Britt, S.J., university president, announced the "reluctant" decision to drop varsity football because it is too expensive.

Father Britt said: "The admin­ istration is convinced that it would no longer be justified in gambling substantial funds on a program that has become in­ creasingly costly, whose total success would seem to depend on ~aving only winning teams, playmg only top-level oppo­ nents, preferably on days when the weather is fair and there was not too much competition from nearby professional, collegiate, university, and even high school football games."

The Titans' 68-year record in­ cludes 305 wins, 200 losses and 25 ties. In 1917 the Titans beat Toledo 145-0, the school's record high score.
