charges made in a sermon delivered by Rev. Ray I. Martin, pastor of the First Methodist Church in North Attleboro. As reported in Monday's edition of the Pawtucket Times, Rev. Mr. Martin said that the public pays in two ways for a private school system. He said that the actual cost in dollars is great because the community loses state aid that would come to a sizeable portion of the educational budget. Rev. Mr. Martin is in error. According to Chapter 70 of the General Laws of Massachusetts, the S~ate refunds to the community, from State Income Tax funds, a per capital amount of money for every child in the community between the ages of seven and 16, even if the child is attending a private or a parochial school. When the funds are b e i n g requested, community school officials count private and parochial school pupils in the community as well as public school pupils. When the per

capita reimbursement is received, the mone~' is used exclusively by the public school system of the community. This is the law. In 1960, for example, the Town of Nortli Attleboro received $64,845 for the pupils being educated in parochial schools in the community, and this money went to the public school system. It is estimated, on the basis of school cost per child, that parochial schools that year saved the tax-

payers of North Attleboro the sum of $371,149. During the same year, the Attleboro public school system received from the State the sum of $22,721 for children being educated in parochial schools. The tax savings to Attleboro citizens for children receiving parochial school educations was $165,813. Parents who exercise their Constitutional right of freedom Turn ~ Page Thirteen

Council Work To Continue Even During Adjournment By Rev. Edward' J. Mitchell On the Feast of the Immac~late Conception, the Coun00 Fathers met in St. Peter's for the 37th and final time. They met to offer Mass together in gratitude to God for )lis blessings on the Council, and tio ring down the curtain' on the first session of Vati. a slow and solemn introcan II. It was a moment to like duction to the great work of the ['~member. The closing cere· Council-a generous willingness mony, however, was as dif- to enter into the heart and SUbllerent from that of the opening day as 1962 is from the Middle Ages. Having oimply taken Cheir regular ceats in the Clave of the lllasilica, the (Council Fa\mers, 0 v er ?,OOO strong, ((hen joined in Oi n gin g the ~east day Mass i':n honor of Our Lady. At f.ts conclusion (,)he Holy F-ather quietly walked tnto the 'church and then, from Lilis throne above the tomb of the :"Jrst pope, spoke to the bishops of the important work they had \)egun. "The first session," the Holy Father recalled to them. "was

stance of Our Lord's plan. It was necessary for brothers, gathered together from afar around a common hearth, to make each other's closer acquaintance; it was necessary for them to look at each other squarely in order to understand each other's hearts; they had necessarily to describe their own experiences, reflecting the conditions of the apostolate under the most varied climates and circumstances, in order that there should be a thoughtful and profitable interchange of views on pastoral matters." That "profitable interchange of views" has now temporarily ended. Part I of Vatican II is over. The army of bishops, theo. logians, observers and reporters has marched home to a welldeserved rest. In the strange Turn to Page Fifteen

stressed that the work of the Ecumenical Council will continue during its nine-month recess and foresaw the Council's possible end by Christmas, 1963. Pope John, looking drawn although his voice was strong, in an 'address at the concluding ceremonies of the Council's twomonth-long opening session, declared that the Council "really remains open during the' next nine months" until the start of its second session next September. ,The Pope, speaking in St. Peter's basilica after a Mass on the feast of the Immaculate Conception, made these other points: -The sometimes "sharply divergent" views of the Council Fathers manifested during the first session, were a healthy demonstration to ,the world of the "holy liberty" that exists within the Church. -The volume of work accomplished by the first session shows that "a ,good beginning has been made." -The bishops of the world, in the months ahead, should· conTurn to Page Four

Eighth Bishop's Charity Ball Looms as All-Time Finest For Diocesan Social Set Every Catholic with a heart and every American with a heart has a deep sense of responsibility and concern for the under-privileged, more especially for under-privileged children. And, that's the real reason behind the Bishop's Charity Ball in this diocese The devoted men and which has developed into the tion. women in these two organiza. outstanding annual South.' tions are giving of their time eastern Massachusetts so- and effort to help Bishop Con-

cial. The Most Reverend Bishop decided upon the annual charity ball to aid the under-privileged children of the Fall River Diocese eight years ago. Starting with a modest get. together, the enthusiasm for this undertaking has increased an. nually. It has been bigger and better each successive year. The Diocesan Council of Cath· ,olic Women and the Diocesan St. Vincent de Paul members have worked tirelessly to make the Bishop's annual charity ball the overwhelming success that it has been. This year is no 'excep.

nolly in his charity toward the under-privileged. The eighth annual BishOp's Charity Ball will be held on Wednesday night, Jan. 9 next at Lincoln Park. Tickets may be procured from members of the Catholic Women's Council or the St. Vincent de Paul Society. In addition, tickets are also avail. able at every rectory in the diocese for those. who are not con. tacted by the organization members and who, too, are just as interested in aiding the Ordinary's work in behalf of the under-privileged.

He said religious communities supplying teachers are not able to provide a four-year college education Defore sending' their teachers into service. Nor, he said, are parishes able to pay lay .teachers who have college degrees. Already, he said, the diocese faces a teacher shortage problem aggravated by the "differential between salaries in the public and parochial schools.

Arthur LaFleur, senior at Holy Family High School, New Bedford, is another of the Diocese's budding scientists, taking his place with outstanding students representing Coyle in Taunton, Prevost in Fall River and Bishop Stang in North Dartmouth. Arthur's special field of interest is organic chemistry and his work in this area won him recognition at the Massachusetts State Science Fair last year. His project was a study of organic sulphur and nitrogen compounds and an examination of the relative efficiency of various antiseptics and germicides. When selected New Bedford high school students were chosen to attend the National Conven. tion on the Atom in Chicago last month, Arthur' was nominated by his principal and science teacher, Sister Mary Charles Francis, R.S.M. She accompanied him to Chicago for the three day meeting at which some 600 young scientists heard top workers in the field explain peaceful uses of atomic energy. While there, Arthur, together with students from other parts of the country, was interviewed and photo-' graphed for articles to appear in two national Catholic magazines. Present Project Although his chief interest is in organic chemistry, Arthur's top priority project at the moment is preparation of an exhibit for the opcoming Diocesan Science Fair. It will be a study of optieal rotatory dispersion, considering the effect of various solutions on polarized light. Results may point the way to a mean of determining molecular structures, says Arthur. The Holy Family senior's In. terest in science developed mainly through reading periodicals and books in the field. He is a member of st. Ann's parish in New Bedford, and graduated

from St路 Ann's grammar school. . His family has permitted him to operate a home laboratory, and is "longsuffering about the odors" associated with organic chemistry experiments, admits Arthur. A sister, Pauline, 17, is especially sympathetic, since she is a chemistry major at New Bedford Institute of Technology.

She hopes to teach the science, as does Arthur, if research doesn't claim his whole time, once college days are over. A second sister, Louise, 13, is a student at St.. Ann's School. Extra-curricular activities for Arthur include construction of model power boats and 路tennis playing.

Hebrew Leader Again Criticizes Aid to Schools WASHINGTON (NC) The president of路 the Union of American Hebrew Congregations has repeated his opposition to Federal aid for parochial schools and again scores Jews who support such aid. Rabbi Maurice N. Eisendrath, as he did at the end of last year's meeting of the 640-membel' Reform temple body, issued a statement at the conclusion of this year's session calling the "growing demand" for U.S. aid for e due a t ion in parochial schools "perhaps the gravest menace to the concept of separation of Church and State" his identical words of last year. The rabbi reiterated his criticism of Jewish groups which support inclusion of pflvate schools in Feder,al aid to education proposals, ascribing their motives "to the expediency of the moment," largely the growth in Jewish day schools. He also criticized "hysterical attacks" directed against the U.S. Supreme Court for its June, 1962, decision that - held voluntary recitation in New York public schools of a state-author_ ized prayer unconstitutional.

The calendar year hurtles to a close and almost as rapidly do autoists seem to be hurling themselves or others into eternity. The statistics on automobile accidents and fatalities have risen at a truly alarming rate here in the Commonwealth. of Massachusetts, and· the combination of wintery weather and fast-approaching holidays seems to promise a record death rate for the current year. Hardly a thing for the citizens of the State to be proud of. And yet--they alone. can do something about it. It is strange how a youth will not be trusted to make all sorts of serious decisions, will not be allowed to partieipate in all kinds of community offices. And yet this same youth is licensed at the age of sixteen to drive a couple of tons of steel and glass and ever-present danger and potential death. It dbes not occur to most parents to deriy him this privilege" or to restrict it or to supervise it. Indeed, many a mother is 'working in a shop to pay for a child's car or insurance. . The always thought-provoking Harry Golden-the editor of the newspaper with the highly unlikely name of The Carolina Israelite-has suggested a novel answer as to what to do about the mass slaughter by the recklessly and carelessly driven automobile. Quoting another newspaper friend of his, he suggested that the car be put in jail instead of the driver. A brilliant and practical solution! Many an otherwise sane person becomes a monster behind the wheel of a car. . And even if this person were put in jail, he would not· be deeply affected but would spend the time dreaming of the nice shiny car waiting comfortably for his return. So why not put the car in jail. If the driver were home. and the automobile were imponded, think of the results! It might be worth a try.

By REV. ROlBERT W. HOVDA, Catholic University TODAY...:. St. Lucy, Virgin, Martyr. The instruction we receive in this school of the liturgy is "practical", as the saying goes. The intellectual truths it Jcommunicates are truths about the meaning and the nature of man, and therefore about his .life, his action, his purpose. Today we honor one who believed, who accepted the "words written long ago" and who cleaved to them with dedicated faithfulness. She was willing to lose, humanly speaking, for the sake of the "pearl of great price" (Gospel). 9

MONDAY-Mass ~ on Sun. 'day. "The Lord is near" (First Reading). And with Him' our 'true selves are near, are here 'to be discovered. For Jesus is 'the measure of aU manhood and womanhood. Our public worship seeks to make what we see in Him grow in us and what we do not see in Him deeline in us. "He must increase; I must decrease." So the liturgy actual~ unites us to the Mystery of Christ, and, in the great Mystery , of His saving mission, to its various aspects, the mysteries of His coming, His deeds and works.

TOMORROW - Mass ~ ~ Sunday. The' great Bible figures of Advent are Isaias, our Lady, and John the -Baptist. Today's Gospel ,links John the Baptist, to the whole tradition of Jewish messianic prophecy. The desert, the minimal garments, the privation-diet-all familiar Old Testament the m e s . connected I with Jewish anticipation, of deliverance. ,These were the signs ,by which John was to be recognized as the herald of our salva~ion, signs familiar to the student of the Jewish Bible.

TUESDAY-Mass ~ on Sunday. "Who art thou?" (Gospel) is the question which Christianity required modern man to ask, as the PJ1eaching of the Gospel, the sacrifices of the martyrs and the lives of Christian saints require men of every age to ask. The answer to that question is life or death for Christianity. Jesus' uniqueness is hard to challenge, but is it the unique. ness of God's Word or of some kind of genetic accident, of divine revelation or 'of human maladjustment? Our participation in the Eucharist is our answer. , He is model,form, exa~ple, life , of every man, woman and' child everywhere. He is Man.

SATURDAY-MaSs ~ on Sun. day. As we conclude our Eucharistic worship this seeond week of Advent with the priestly prayer after Communion we pray that our participation in this mystery may teach us not to care about tl'le things of earth. Some missals translate it: "to despise the things of earth." Too literal, that. The meaning is certainly not to despise as we use the word, nor is it not to care about. Rather it means to absorb the Advent instruction sufficiently to place, to "organize", all present realities in relation to the final ones-to see all things in: the light of eternity•

,THIRD SUNDAY OF AD. VENT. The joy of the C~ristian, so prominent a note in tod-ay's liturgy (Entrance Hymn, First Reading) is quite 'different from a superficial giddiness. Giddiness or silliness forgets the realities of human life and of the human condition, refuses to face the facts of sin and evil and sheer weakness. The liturgy is . always realistic. In the opening prayer of the Mass we ask God, (through the of the Saviour announced OFFICIAL NEWSPAPER. OF THE DIOCESE OF FALL RIVER coming in the Gospel) to give light to minds naturally dark.

A touching scene is repeating itself over and over again this week in every nation and in every corner of the world. . People of every race and color and condition of life are welcoming back into their midst their Father in God __the Bishop, the pastor or sheperd of their souls. While he was in Rome, the people followed the progress of events surrounding their Bishop and his brothers in the Apostolic College. Now they rejoice to have him back with them again. _ The Council is not over. Its work continues. Preparation for the next session is one of the great dutie~ of every Bishop in the nine months that are ahead. Council conclusions have not yet been given to the world. But every Bishop will surely sense the joy of his people on his return, their continuing prayers. for the work that remains to be done, their pride in his role in the work that will shape the lives of meri for generations to come, their happiness that the Providence of God has directed such great things to be done in this age. '

The Churches of the Diocese echoed Sunday at every Mass with the voices of men and women, boys and girls, all taking the Legion of Decency Pledge. Perhaps it would be more accurate to say-reciting the words of the Pledge. For the words are said once a year. And there is every evidence that the fulfilling 'of them is far from being a smashing success. No matter what people may say,. in an area of the State as Catholic as the Diocese of Fall River, if the Legion of Decency Pledge' were taken and kept scrupulously by all those who actually recite the words, there would be a drastic change in movie policy and the distribution of books and magazines that would be openly evident, and this, within. a very few weeks. No one can 'seriously say that undesirable movies and unwholesome magazines are patronized exclusively or even largely by the non-Catholic citizens of the area. S1,lch a statement would be an insult to these people and an as. sault on the 'truth. The fir~ course of action is for Catholics, those who said the words on Sunday, to live up to the Pledge they have taken. The next step is for them to ina~e their views on these matters known. Edmund Burke once wrote: "All that is necessary for the forces of evil to win in the world is for enough good men to do nothing."

VOlt1NTFJ:~S

EMBER WEDNESDAY, IN ADVENT. The Masses of these ember days bring us some of the messianic prophecies of the Old Testament - today from Isaias (Refrain of Entrance Hymn, First and Second Readings, Offertory and Communion Hymns). "The Lord himself shall give you a sign" (Second Reading). We join our Jewish ancestors in faith and in fasting. Though He has come, and that coming makes this time different from that of the Old Testament, His kingdom nevertheless is yet to be fully realized.. We still wait and long.

Canadian Workers Promote Savings QUEBEC (NC)-The Canad18l'1 Young Catholic Workers have launched a drive to make members aware of the need for savings. Savings groups were founded in the Canadian YCW movement in 1959. They have increased from 67 groups with savings of $76,030 in that year to 131 groups with a total of $225,986 now. A recent survey of 500 young workers showed that after three years of work girls were ea·rnirig' $35 a week and 27 per cent of them, were in debt. Among the young men the average wage was $47 a week and 31 per cent of them were in debt u.P to $500.

parishes.' Mary Christie-a twoyear veteran of the home mi~ sions responds th a t Catholics from the more endowed areas of the Uni ted States are dutybound to help the mission areas overcome ,their lack of qualified Catholic laymen. The shortage of priests and nuns ex i s t s throughout the world but the lack of laymen 1$ peculiar to the missions. Miss Christie said that in the missions, where the everyday distraction,s of home and occupation do not intrUde, one can dedicate, himself totally to the work of the apostolate. Some dioceses encourage lay leaders to work elsewhere for a time real.izing that after the temporary mission assignments the laymen return to do more effective work in their own diocese after their excellent training in the missions. Solid and Balanced Extension field director Father John Sullivan repor.ts a need f." 500 volunteers in 1963. Those qualified volunteers who fulfill the stringent screening reqHirements will begin with an orieDtation week on Aog. 23, 1963.

Listener Library Ends Fund Drive

VATICAN CITY (NC) To achieve reunion with separated Eastern Churches, the Catholic Church must make it clear that union will not deprive them in any way of their sacred traditions and rites. This ,is the suggestion advanced by Maronite Rite Archbishop Joseph Khoury of Tyre, Lebanon. At the same time the Archbisop called for changes in the hierarchial establishment of the Catholic Church in the East. He cited the example of the city of Beirut where there are three patriarchs of three different Catholic Rites, as well as a Latin Rite bishop. "Pope Innoceri,t III said that a See with two heads is a monster," the Archbishop declared." "We feel the same and we hope that this can be altered for it gives scandal not only to other Christians but creates problems within the different Catholic communities." Archbishop Khoury said that the Maronite Rite is the largest Catholic community - 1,300,000 . members - in the Middle East. He said the Maronites are the only Eastern Rite which does not have a non-Catholic complement among the separated churches and that their long tradition has prepared a model for reunion, since the Maronite Rite has kept its special Eastern character while remaining always in union with Rome.

ROME (NC) - Bishops of Latin America have pre,e;ented German bishops a parchment scroll, testimony of gratitude for their assistance. Jaime Cardinal de Barros Camara, Archbishop of Rio de Janeiro and first president of the Latin American Bishops Council, made the presentation. Joseph Cardinal Fringe, ArChbishop of Cologne, received the scroll in the name of his fellow German bishops. He was also presented with a wood carving n:om Colombia.

Heve that change would bring misunderstanding of doctrine. "This is the group that journal'ists have labeled conservatives or right-wingers." The other group claims that "old-time terminology; .. causes misunderstanding today, and in, SO!lle cases distorts the basic doctrine of the Church."

Bishop Mussio asserts that bishops from the same nations have grouped themselves into both of these positic:ins-"con_ servative" and "progressive"so that no one Ol' two nations represent 'either of the two sides.

VATICAN CITY (N C) Pope John commended Ecumenical Council fathers for the "charity in truth" which dominated' their meetings: The Pontiff said the group ,"stood out like a flame in St. Peter's square. "We will meet here again," he said, "to ask the Blessed Virgin and all the saints to help us honor our pastoral mission, which has as its sole objective, the 'spreading of the Gospel and its penetration of our times.

New Atmosphere Indicates First Council Fruits

!Foghti' ~U'@\1'e Aid T@ £~[ffi@@~s

Continued from Page One quiet that prevails in the Eternal City it is now our hope to sum up for you some of the results of this first session. Chronicling the facts is easy enough - but capturing the new atmosphere created by the Council is like attempting an answe. to "Sound of Music's" query, "How do you hold a moonbeam in your hand?" The facts of Vatican II's first encounter are these: the Council . met in 37 working sessions, during which over 600 speeches were delivered and 523 separate recommendations submitted in writing. Five major projects were discussed: Sacred Liturgy, Sources of Revelation, the Communications Media, the Reunion of Christendom, and the Nature of the Church. The bishops bal. loted 33 times, with the final vote registering a resounding "placet" (approval) to the first chapter of the liturgy project. Liturgy Decree This decree on the liturgy is a beautifully worded blueprint for a true renewal of the public worship of God. It gives important new powers to the bishops, both in national groups and as individuals, to renew the liturgy according to the needs of their people. Bishops will now be able to incorporate more of, the language and customs of their country into public worship. National bodies of bishops will supervise the new translations that will have to bOe made. Referring to this decree on the liturgy, Bishop Connolly, before departing for home, said: "This is an important chapter, for it is the foundation for all that follows. It has now become the pattern for pishops and priests alike." Recalling that the liturgy is our official means of communicating with God, Bishop Connolly explained the setting for the new changes hi the language of worship. "The presentation each morning in St. Peter's of various litUrgies, many of them in the vernacular," said the Bishop, "is an indication that the Western Church, even though wedded to Latin as her official language, still recognizes the use of the vernacular. With such a clear tradition, the basis for the use of living languages is quite solid. Its application will be important in mission countries - but not unimportant even for us in the West.. , New Atmosphere But while the Bishop of Fan River and others have empha. sized the accomplishments in the field of liturgy, they are also vocal on other subjects treated. Said one mid-western bishop, "We have made solid progress in many 'areas-perhaps not the kind of progress that makes headlines, but the kind which will surely move the Church ~orward in a true inner renewa!." The new atmosphere created by the Council, however, is a far harder thing to analyze. Yet it is the very thing that Pope John hoped for when he called the Council in 1959. When asked at that time by an American bishop what the Council would do for the Church, Pope John flung open his study win. dow and said, "It will let some fresh air into the Church." First step This new breath of fresh ait Btirring in the Church is being clearly felt in an intellectual' awakening, a greater love for the WOrd of God, a higher and more understandable participation in the Mass-and not least Qif all, a deeper desire on the part of Catholics to work and pray for a united Christendom. The climate engendered by Vatican II is being felt in nonCatholic circles also. There is a growing sympathy on the part Qf many Protestant and OrthoaIox leaders towards the Church's message and mission. It may take centuries for this to reach fruition in what we now hold as '&he One Church of Christ---but at least a first sure step has been 1;ak(m.

SYRACUSE (NC)-Catholic support for their own schools may seem a likely source of opposition to state aid for public schools, but this is not true, a new study reports. "There is no evidence to suggest that the Roman Catholic Church has been a depreEsant upon state aid to public education," says a study of state aid to education in the heavily Ca~:1 'lie northeast section of the country. Entitled "Schoolmen and Politics," the report was written by education specialists from four institutions of higher education. It was published by the Syracuse University press as the first in a 12-volume series on "the economics and politics of public education." The book says that "it would be ea'sy to jump to the conclusion - as many people have - that self-interest would dictate a massive and uniform opposition of loyal Catholics to increased spending for public schools." !Promote Cause "Logical inference in this case is, however, not supported by empirical evidence," the report adds. It says there have been instances in which the "assumed or real attitudes" of Catholic populations and of leaders of the Church have had a depressant effect on local public school finance. But it added that there "is no evidence whatever that this has been the result of a conscious policy on the part of the Catholic hierarchy.'" It also points to , "scores of examples" of Catho-' lics who have taken the leadership in promoting the cause of public education in heavily Catholic districts.

COUNCIL OBSERVERS: Non-Catholic observers are shown in one of the tribunes at St. Peter's in Rome watching proceedings. They are, left to right, Dr. Tadros Michael Tadros of the Orthodox Church of Egypt; Most Rev. John Moorman, Anglican Bishop of Ripon, England; Very Rev. Archimandrite Karekin Sarkission of Armenian Orthodox Church; and Dr. Oscar Cullman, Protestant theologian of the :University of Basel.

Initial Sessions Fulfill Pope's Wish ·Breath of Fresh Air 'Has Entered Church This Intangible new climate, which is the first fruit' of the Council, has also developed the thinking of the bishops on such fundamental questions as their role in the Church, the importance of the laity in the Mystical Body, the benefits of a living language in worship, and the need for more theological preparation. Remains Open What will happen to the Council during its nine months' re. cess? Pope John gave the answer to this in his talk at the closing session. "That activity will continue," the Holy Father said, "is made clear by the setting-up of a new Commission cpmposed of members of the Sacred College and of the Bishops representing the Universal Church. This Commission's duty is to pursue and direct the work during these months and, along with the various conciliar commissions, to lay the firm foundations for the happy final outcome of the Council. Thus the Council really remains open during the next nine months of suspension of ecumenical sessions."

Expressing the' hope that the all Our faithful children may be next session of the Council will reached in the joy of Christmas." be the last, Pope John said, The first session of the Second "Each bishop, although 'preoccu- Vatican Council is over.

CINCINNATI (N C ) Archbishop Karl J.

In a message to the annual convention of the Archdiocesan Council of Catholic Men the Archbishop said it is of "highe~ importance" that laymen "extend a knowledge of our Catholic school problem among the rank and file of our men ill tho individual parishes." Fme~ ilJrims "Much remains to be done to acquaint our' Catholic men with the crisis we face if Federal aid is passed without our own children receiving a just and legitimate share of the benefits foro which their parents pay," he said. Recommending "debates ra each parish," hee suggested that non-Catholics. be' invited to "state their. objections, if any." He went, on', to' suggest that· "the subject· should be considered in the light of future en.. rollment' needs; and capacities, teacher shortage, financial costs per capita in our schools both Catholic and: pUblic, bus trans-: portation, and in general an social welfare benefits."

Educator Believes Shared-Time Success Depends on Protestants . ST. LOUIS (NC) - An offietal of the National Catholic Educational Association said bere that shared-time educa'tton will be successful only if Protestant church groups adopt

·it. This ev,aluation oaroe from Msgr. T'Neil C. D'AmoUl', associate secretary in charge of the Department of School Superintendents of the National Catho_, J1c Educational Association. The Monsigj)or, who has participated in numerous discussions on the potential of sharedtime with public school offi~ daIs and p.rotestant and Jewish churchmen, spoke to the alumni of Kenrick Seminary. Shared-time education. is . a proposal that students divide each day bet wee n common schools and church - related schoois. They would take socalled neutral courses, such as industrial arts, in the common schools; and go to the other school for subjects related to their religion. Sincere Effo.rt Msgr. D;Amour said' the idea first was suggested b,y a promi.Bent Protestant educator as a way of overcoming the problem 6f the religious. ignorance of children who are denied reli-· iP,ous instruction in public Schools. . "It is not merely a gimmick," be said. ''It is, the sincere effurt of religious men and women to find a solution for the most grievous problem' of our day the problem of religious illiteracy.'~,· , End to Strife -{, Saying.the proposal deserved $tudy, he commented that for Catholics, "it offers us an opportunity t~ reach 100 per ,cent e>f OIU" Catholic youth with' a Jl;lrtial Catholic education.'.',.

Three Students Lose Appeal ALBANY (NC) ~ The New York State Court of Appeals has refused to order reinstatement of three Catholic students dismissed from St. John's Univer.· sity, Jamaica, N. Y., for participation in a civil marriage cere-' mony. . The court had been asked to declare that St. John's, operated by Vincentian Fathers, .had acted arbitrarily in expelling two students who married in a civil ceremony and a third .who was witness to the ~arriage. The students were Howard G. Carr and his wife, Greta Schmidt Carr, and Jean Catto. After the' civil marriage, the three were notified verbally an April 12 that they had been dismissed from the univ:ersity. 'Public Scandal' 'The Carrs marrie<:\, the same day in a Catholic ceremony. On AprIl 18, written notices of their dismissals were received by them. . . Following the 5. to 2 vote by which the state's high' court rejected the move for reinstatement, university authorities said in a statement that "our decision that the conduct of these students brought public scandal and notoriety to the,university was, we felt, well grounded and made iii. good faith."

Sees 'Golden Opportunityll For Catholicism in U.S.

By Jack Kineavy The official announcement by authorities at Boston College indicating disinterest in post season grid competition-specifically, the Gotham Bowl-rang down the curtain Olll the 1962 collegiate scene in New England. Tonight the annual O'Melia Award Dindrilled the ball through the upIller will be held in Boston rights to give Boston a six-point and' the principal speaker ~surance bulge. Under N.C.A.A. rules all penwill be Rev. William Donoehy, former president of Holy Cll'OSS, now at Boston College. The O'Melia Trophy, preS<lnted annually Co the oustanding player in the Holy CrossBoston College l!ome, will go to the Eagles' cr!'eat quarterback. Jack Concannon, who as /) junior is one ~ the few so honored. Finishing a close second' in the balloting was end Art Graham whose professional potential is such that he was a flll'st round choice of the Boston Pntriots in the AFL draft last , week., Patriots supporters envision a X'<aunion of these two lads a couple of years hence. A number of former Eagles have made it bie with the Boston team, among them Jim Colclough, Larry Eisenhauer and Ro~s O'Hanley. And Coach Mike Holovak's <aleven is still in contention for the Eastern title despite crip. pling injuries to key personnel. Now the squad Is sweating in. fectious hepatitis after big tackle Jesse Richardson was stricken last week. Good Show Pro football and television have combined to reduce aggravated traffic conditions on weekends of late what with back-toback video presentations of NFL and AFL games of the week fil. tered into the den. Candor impels Wl to conclude-and AFL people don't deny it-that the difference In the ca'libre of play in the two leagues Is still pronounced. Walt Cudzik, Patriot offensive center who has seen service in both. leagues, advances the theory that better defensive backfield play in the NFL is the main fector which tips the balance in favor of the senior circuit. This. would seem to hold water, the pro game being the wide open nffalr that it Is. We enjoyed the change in the Giants' offensive pattern against the. Bt:0wns. ,on Sunday wlth quarterback Ralph Guglielmi' utilizing "his speed end ball carrying ability to pressure the Cleveland defense. The selections of various news services of their annual' AlIAmerican teams all but ignored th<a New England sector. Only Dartmouth's Don McKinnon was niven consideration on the first thX'ee teams. McKinnon,a centei', is a product of Arlington, Moss. and another 8f the Patriots local draft choices. Those who eontend that the Ivies don't prodUC0 players of pro calibre nowadays forget that Chuck Bednarik of the Eagles is a graduate ofl the University of Pennsyl. vania and Mike Pyle of the Bears is an old Blue from Yale. Reverse Strategy ~n interesting bit of strategy occurred in the Pats-Chargers game on Sunday when Boston intentionally drew a delay penalty of five yards to afford placekicker Capeletti a better nnBle from which to attempt a field goal. The Chargers p'rompt. ly declineC" the penalty causing X'eflection on the field and con. jecture in the broadcasting booth. C 0 u I d the penalty be declined?

alties may be declined but there are a couple of situations which warrant explanation. In the event 'the foul involves disqualification, the offending player must leave the game, even though the distance penalty for the infractio'n is declined. Should the foul leave the ball behind the goal in let's say, a situation where the ball has been intentionally grounded by the offen- . sive team, the penalty may be declined' but it's still a safety. Fine, now that you're sufficiently confused, we'll move on. Prominently mentioned on most All East elevens was Columbia's fine guard Tony Day who played his high school ball at ManSfield High in the halcyon days of the Green Hornets. Tony was a unanimous choice for an interior line berth on The Anchor's 1958 All-Diocesan eleven. Also accorded due rec': ognition on, various All-New England teams was tackle Dick Bonalewicz of Colby who was a tower of strength in the Mules' forward wall all season long. Closing out fine grid careers at their respective s~hools were a trio of Southeastern Mass. products in the persons of Bob Hargraves, Holy Cross flankman, Dave Yelle, Boston College guard and Charley Carey, Colby guard. Hargraves and Carey are former Durfee High three sports stars, while Yelle is an alumilUS of Monsignor Coyle High. All three were All-Bristol County, All-Diocesan grid selections in high school. Round Ball The lid was pried off the local interscholastic basketball season last Friday night at Kennedy ,Center, New Bedford, where Holy Family edged Bishop Stang, 72-68, in a thrill-packed eontest before a capacity crowd. The same two teams are scheduled to meet tomorrow night on Stang's court in North Dartmouth where Coach John O'Brien's Spartans hope to take advantage of familiar surroundings to pull even against the Narry quintet. The ten member Narry circuit will' launch' the '62-'63 league ,season next. Tuesday, Dec. 18. Bristol County doesn't officially get underway until Friday, Jan. 4. Meanwhile, all clubs have busy exhibition schedules com. ing up. A pair of early season head'llners are' carded for tomorrow night. Durfee will host Rogers High of Newport, R. I. at Fall River Armory and New Bedford will be at home to perennially, powerful Somerville. On the college scene, Providence College has a Friday night date with the St. Louis Billikens at Alumni Hall in a contest that will be televised locally over WPRO facilities. The Friars will seek to rebound from their first home court loss in two years, an 82-75 defeat at the hands of the University of Miami last Saturday night. It's going to be,a big' weekend for the Friars who trek to New York. on Saturday to take on a highly regarded St. 'Joseph's (Pa.) five.

Urge Aid Based On Bailey Plan MIAMI BEACH (NC}-President Kennedy has been urged by a bipartisan citizens committee to base next year's proposal for Federal aid to education on the so-called "Bailey plan." This plan, championed unsuccessfully in Congress by Rep. Cleveland M. Bailey of West Virginia, who was defeated in his reelection bid, calls for a mere transfer of Federal funds to states. Each state could spend the money on 'education as it chose and distribute it as defiIied by state law. Avoids Issue This approach has been billed as a method of allowing Congress to avoid 'the issue of Federal aid for education in parochial schools because states would 'decide whether non':'pJ.1blic schools should benefit. Spokesmen for non - public Schools have noted, however, that the plan would, in .effect, write off the possibility of U.S. aid to ,educatioQ in church-related schools because 38 states are bound by law explicitly denying public aid to such schools. In addition, some state courts have interpreted their constitution's provisions on ChurchState relations more rigidly than the U.S. Supreme Court has i n t e r pre ted. the First Amendment.

example, people are falling all over themselves to be friendly to the, Church. Clergy and Re. ligious on some campuses find themselves almost embar. rassed by the attention showered on them by their professors and fel- , low students. • As one scholar . put it, "Having a Catholic priest around here is kind of status symbol for us." Again, at the recent convention of the Religious Ec!ucation Association, Catholic delegates found themselves being treated with tremendous respect and admiration, part of which at least was earned by the superlative performance of 'the teaching Sisters at the convention. (One rabbi summed up what many of us felt when he said, "Good heavens, the nuns are the best people here!"). The election of a Catholic layman (Philip Scharper, the gifted editor of Sheed and Ward) as president 6f the 'REA was surely some kind of milestone. Another sign of the new interest, one might almost say. new curiosity, about Catholicism is. the large number of magazine articles on the contemporary church. The Saturday Evening Post, The New Yorker, Harper's, Time, The Atlantic, The Christian Century, and The New Republic have all found it advisable to try to interpret recent developments in the Church for their readers. There are at least two major reasons for this highly promising situation in which the Church suddenly finds itself. The first, of course, is the fact of a Catholic president. ' In his' Houston speech John Kennedy played' somethirig of the role of a doctor ecclesiae; he said nothing about the ChurchState relationship that had riot been said before many times by members'of the hierarchy. Revelation to Many But when: he said it· and' no Catholic spokesman accused him of being wrong, non-Catholic Americans for the first time began to believe that the American Church did illdeed believe in the First Amendment. The Kennedy campaign was apparently a startling revelation to many Americans. The popularity and increasing success of the Kennedy Administration has reflected ver)' favorably on American Catholicism. A few Catholic journals have been critical of the president's failure to support certain kinds of aid for Catholic schools. What they fail to realize is that the successful administra-

help - however necessary ~mc'J desirable this help might be. Pope's Efforts The second reason for the iMP proved image of the Catholi~ Church is another man named John and the Council he haD summoned. The Pope's sincero efforts at religious unity an'd hiD announced intention of "modo ernizing" the Church have 0 great appeal to non-Catholie Americans. The infighting between oppos.ing forces at the Council, while it may give disedification t@ some pious American Catholics, also serves to convince non-Cath,,<r olics that the Church is not 0 monolithic structure and thaC the democratic processes of dig" cussion and debate can inc!('ccil .thrive within the Church ~ Rome. Bigotry is not dead, Mooo Americans are probably con, vinced that the Catholic hief<'archy killed Federal aid to edllP cation-certainly New Republic columnist TRB and the editoriall writers of the New York TiDlIl'!O seem to be. Foresees lImprovem!'nt , The facts, of course, aloe th~C such aid was !tilled in the houso rules committee by Republican and Southern Democratic Pro!;.. estants with two of the throo Catholics on the committee voting for such aid. t:t is still pOGsible to discuss the CathoUe Church without paying much attention to facts. Nevertheless. the opportunity is here. It will not automatically be utilized to its fullest potentiaL There was another opportunity many decades ago in the time 0:1 Archbishops Gibbons, Ireland, and Keane, which vanished !o the unfortunate (and accordinB to some recent historians, tragically unnecessary) Americanl!J1lQ .controversy. .The internal condition of tJ)1o American Church today is muc1n more favorable for a confrontc~ tion between the Church aiu~ American society, and this 'len:. dition will probably improvo even more rapidly after tl<:!.Q ,Vatican Council. If the possibillities of the present situation atD not seized, there will be precloWJ little excuse· ~ tl"I"I"I".I"~
