The ANCHOR

WASHINGTON (NC):-The U. S. Catholic Bishops' legal advisors have concluded that Federal aid limited to the secular or neutral aspects of education in church-related schools would be clearly constitutional. The Legal Department of the National Catholic Welfare Conference says in an 82-page study that such aid has precedents in at least 41 programs . .approved by Congress. It states that the U.S. Supreme Court has held in three decisions that government can

Search for Synthesis Sign Of Deep Longing for Unity, PARIS (NC)-The growing awareness of the social aspect of the Holy Eucharist and of the basic nature of the Ghristian community is a - major factor underlying' the search for unity, Maurice Cardinal Feltin said here."

Within the Church, he said, these apparently divisive factors include the increasing participation of the laity In a multiplicity of activities, and the fact that new approaches taken by those who seek to reach the unbelieving masses by adapting traditional ways provoke opposition from those who adhere to ancient customs as unalterable. The current tendency among thinkers to search for some kind of universal synthesis, according to Cardinal Feltln, is a sign of a deep longing for unity. He cited in this connection the work of the late Father Pierre Tell~ hard de Chardin, Jesuit anthrOo pologist.

"But what entices us in his works," said the Cardinal, "is· the wonderful attempt to establish a global vision of the uni~ verse in which the material and the spiritual, body and soul,' natural and supernatural, science and faith, all find their unity in Christ."

voice his thanks to everyone who had joinM in celebrating or expressed good wishes on his 80th birthday. ~ In the letter to Amleto Cardinai Cicognani, Pope John noted that many had wished him a long life. To this he said: "May everyone say with happy and serene mind, 'the will of God, the will of God: and nothing more." The Pope spoke of his "immense gratitude to the cardinals, to the bishops, to the diocesan and regular clergy, and to aN. Our collaborators," He included thanks also to heads of states and governments, especially of the 70 countries which sent special delegations here to participate in the birthday celebration, and to the members of the diplomatie corps accredited' to the Holy See, The Pope in his letter said: 'Harmony of llntentions' "What can be said of the festive echoes' of. the immense legions of consecrated souls, of children, the sick and the aged, of the humble and the poor? "There are reasons for sorrow whi.ch certainly trouble Our spirit concerning the future of nations and of peoples, all of whom are dear to Our heart. But the .harmony of thoughts and of intentions .. '. gives Us reason to think that Our convinced optimism is well founded." .'The .letter was written to Cardinal Cicognani "according to the custom of the Curia." The . Pope called the Cardi~l Secretary of State '~the first voice and the first interpreter of Our communications with the whole world."

World. Peace, Ecumenical Council Issues in Third Year of Pontificate VATICAN CITY (NC) -In -the third year of his reign and . the 80th year of his life Pope · John devoted his' energiet; to two paramount issues in two worlds: peace in the secular world, and the ecumenical council in the world of the Church. As world tensions grew and conflicts flared in many troubled spots on earth, the Pope repeated · almost weekly that true peace and serenity are to be found in · a proper realization of life's meaning as a path to eternity. Receiving the dipomatic corps to the Boly See on the eve of the double celebration of his birthday and coronation (Nov. 4), he spoke to them of "the duty incumbent upon all men to make · good use of the time left to them · to acl in the interests of peace, civilization and real progress." Makes Special Appeal But even before that, there · was hardly a major occasion on · which he did not call all men, esper.'ally the world's leaders, to their duty of preserving peace in the world. He made a special appeal for peace at a peace rally at Castelgand'l!fo, his Summer residence; on Sept. 10. In his discourse on that occasion, he urged the leaders of the world to "face squarely the tremendous responsibil· ities they bear before the tribunal of history." A few days later he issued an apostolic letter urging private and public recitation of the Rosary for that peace which "in the Christian meaning signifies insight of minds into that sense of truth, justice and perfect brotherhood among people which dispels every danger of discord and confusion." Second Stage The year 1961 brought the second stage of preparation for

Urges u.s. Aid British GlllOQna DALLAS (NC) - The U. S. should grant the financial aid 'sought by the leftist government of British Guiana, a bishop of that troubled South American nalion said here. Bishop Richard L.,Guilly, S.J., of Georgetown, British Guiana, said that the country is "badly in need of such aid due to its undeveloped status" and refusal by . the U. S. to help "would be one of the surest ways of insuring its turn toward Russia." British Guiana's Premier Cheddi Jagan, the Bishop said, has declared himself "im extreme socialist" who thinks all production should be controlled by the sta~e. Sees Danger "Politically, however, he professes to embrace a parliamentary democracy," the Bishop said. "But in view of the communist syinpathies he has shown itt the past only time can tell whether 'his current declaration can be taken at face value." U. S. aid now, he said, "very well might 'tide over' the present situation until the communist danger could be averted."

-Sneering Sadism Both the Board Chhirman ~f the National Broadcastfng Company and the President, of the Columbia Broadcasting SystEml have voiced strong opposition to the suggestions of Federal Government control over television programming. ,, ' . These two gentlemen fear that ~hile criticism would be -good for television, coercion "could be disastrous" and Government sllpervision would stifle creativity and, could' lead to misuse of TV for po)itical purposes. There is much to be said for these points of view, , even given by men hardly able to bear the title of "dis. interested citizens." , But it is a fact that in a democracy Goverriment seems to be at its best in performing functions that private groups cannot do or will not do. It would be interesting to hear the attituae of the head of the American Broadcasting Company in the matter. For this network-knowingly or otherwise---,.provided ammunition for the proponents of Government supervision 'when it produced a program a few weeks ago--"Bus Stop" . by name:-that had the Ne"{ York critics reaching for the : dictionaries to find stronger adjectives of condemnation. The critic of The New. York Times called it "an hour of dark and sordid ugliness-cheaper than anything yet seen on television . . . an unbelievable exploitation of the : 'base instincts 'of. an animal run amok." . The critic of the New York Journal- American said - it was "pure and total junk,~ a sex-vicious wallowing through an' hour of ugly, cynical sadism such as might be imagined by any tasteless and anvil-lJ,anded amateur trying to outdo the lowest TV cz:ime show standard. Fabian also proved he ean act just as well as he sings.'" , The Herald-Tribune man declared the "flesh-crawling hour was as reDellent as anything l' ever saw on television -which is say'ing quite a lot.;' Participating sponsors refused to be associated with this show which featured the teen-age singer Fabian along with two senseless. murders and an implied-rape. And the Boston station is to be congratulated for refusing to run it. WNAC-TV officials exercised their legal responsibility and lived up to the requirements of their FCC license. Some called this censorship. It is in fact doing what the network would not or did not do--using good judgement and approaching the television situation with a sense of responsibility. • ' , . ' If the networks do not want Government supervision,-' they must show e<J.ual judgement. They ~ust realize,th~t, in the words of Jack lams of the Herald-Tribune, "calc~lated brutality and. sneering sadism" are not television fare that the 'public will long take and do ,nothing about.

BURLINGTON (NC)-The Diocese of Burlington has given ~ booklet entitled "Where Do Sisters 'Come From?" to all adults attending Mass in Vet', mont.' Ten years ago, the publication points out, the Burlington diocese had 10,698 parochial students and 412 'nuns to teach 'them, while today there are 14,632 parochial students and 470 teaching nuns. This represents a 36.7 per. cent increase in students, but an increase of only 13.8 per cent teaching sisters, it says. .In 1951, there were 66 nursing Sisters in three diocesan hospitals, caring for 12,599 patients of all races and creeds, compared, with the present 59 nursing nuns' '. in the three hospitals, which now r care for 22,960 patients, the booklet says. This means that although the need for nursing care has in-. , . creased 82.2 per cent, the numPLAN CHARITY BALL: Representatives of the Dioe>-': ber of nursing sisters h81 esan Council of Catholic Women meet to ·make advance dropped 1'1.8 per cent, it notes.

Today there is widespread agreement, . even within the TV industry, But,it takes conviction and moral that most children's pro- courage to act. grams - realistically rated Here are some suggestions: -would fall' somewhere beForm yo~r own rating service.

Forthcoming activities for Benedict Circle, North Attleboro Daughters of Isabella, include a food fair this Saturday at Hotel Hixon with Mrs. Thomas Charron, Mrs. Mario Blazio and Miss Genevieve Riley in charge of arrangements. Carolers will start visiting the sick tomorrow. A children's Christmas party is slated for this Sunday afternoon at St. Mary's school hall. A clown and Santa Claus will be featured entertainment. Mrs. Alex Taylor is chairman. New Year New Year events will include a monthly meeting and social Tuesday, Jan. 2, and the annual Winter Dessert ~ridge Wednesday, Jan. 17, both at Hotel Hixon. A bridge to benefit Rose Hawthorne Home is scheduled for Thursday, Mar. 1 and a Mardi Gras will be held Saturday, Mar. 3. A Communion breakfast is set for Sunday, Mar. 25. . April will bring the unit's 45th anniversary banquet and a joint dance with the Knights of Columbus is on the May calendar.

Sit down with your children and watch their favorite prograins. Is 30 minutes of violence justified just because the villain gets wiped out-to use Tv parlance-usually by an equally. brutal "good guy." Make clear, consistent limits and stick by them, except for rare programs of unusual importance and interest. Admittedly it takes reckless daring to switch channels in the middle of a showdown in Dodge City.

ASHTABULA-(NC>' - A Cuban priest has described. how he, a former prison chaplain, became a prisoner

CHICAGO (NC)-A priest who has walked the last mile with 14 of the condemned and has fought crime by try-

himself in Fidel Castro's Cuba. "When I heard of the invasion of April 17," he said, "I left my parish in Guanabo· Beach and went to Havana, 30 miles away. "I changed to a layman's clothes and took off my Roman collar. But as I ,was walking down the street, someone who knew me pointed me .out to the communists, and they took me off to jail." Father Jiminez, who has been helping out at St.· Joseph's parish here in Ohio for the past month, recalls that he spent the daylight hours in one prison, and was transferred in the evening to another, a former seminary. The daytime prison was terribly crowded, he said. It had been built for 3,000, but 15,000 men were crammed into it.

ing to understand criminals was: honored here .for his 25 years as a teacher. Father Ralph A,· Gallagher,' S.J., chairman of the department of sociology at Loyola University, accepted the congratulations of 350 guests at a dinner which coincided with his 65th birthday. "We've rebuilt Chicago since I came here in 1936 to teach at Loyola," said the Jesuit priest who founded the Federation for Crime Prevention and Delinquency Control in 1947. In 1936 if the young criminal was sentenced to a penal institution, he was forgotten, Father Gallagher said.

By Most . Rev. Fulton J. Sheen,' D..,J).' ! . . There are several way!' of destroying the Feith in Communist lands. One method is to have children "report" to authorities on their _parents. In China, for example, one Communist-indoctrinated daughter applauded as her parents were shot. Another plan is the "block system," which stipulates thai the Communist leader in every block is to be punished if any faithful are found In his territory. In prison, another system is used: a missionary nun who was jailed with forty women prisoners told us that all were denied food and drink until every person in the cell accepted Communism. \'

NEW ROCHELLE (NC) Woman's place is in the home, but the home is not just her house, a Jesuit educator said hei-e. ''The home for today's woman reaches far beyond the sheltered perimeter of her family circle to the community, the nation and the world," Father John McLaughlin; S.J., instructor in humanities at Fairfield Univeqity declared in a lecture at the College of New Rochelle. Father McLaughlin scor~d ex-, tremists who overprotect or overpromote woman. He urged a broad middle course based o~ sound theological and psychological grounds. "Neither the wife-mother nor the single woman must allow her social influence to suffocate by constraining it to the family unit alone," Father McLaughlin said. "Woman should make her overtures into those areas where man needs her genius, where he is· inferior to her. She must approach man not as a competitor

Encyclical Cites Ind ividua I ~uties TOLEDO (NC)-The central teaching of Pope John's social encyclical underlines the rights and duties of the individual, Bishop George J. Rehring of Toledo has emphasized. Bishop Rehring noted that nowhere in the encyclical "Mater et Magistra" are there such terms as "left of center, right of center, liberal, conservative." "Instead you are constantly reminded of the rights and duties of the individual man," he stressed. The Bishop declared that social problems can only be solved by thf)se who are "willing to accept solutions even when the solutions mean a reduction in their own hoidings and a lessening of prospects for future greater gain." {'When men serve the commoCl good, th·ey work to L"~. advantage because the common good offers conditions in which everyone can pursue his potentialities to the utmost," he obs~rved.

Priest-Lawyer Continued from Page One without discrimination." The constitutional difficulty is created by "the highly controverted interpretation. of the 'establishment of religion' clause of the First Amendment to the Constitution, announced for the first time in 1947 by the Supre:l.e Court." Speaking of the "general welfare" issue, Fat her. Kenealy pointed out that "Federal aid ·to education Is unquestionably oonstitutional." General Welfare He said "it would seem reasonable to hold that if the general welfare would be promoted by aiding some, it would be better promoted by aidif\g all. In any event, the critical question is: How would the general welfare of the nation be better served? This is the main issue. It should not be obscured. And it should not be shouted down." On the issue of "parental freedom," Father Kenealy declared that "fundamental rights should not be mere academic abstractions or sterile legal concepts." Freedom of Choice "Yet, when government taxes all parents for the support of a school system which satisfies the free choice of some parents only, and denies all support to parents whose consciences dictate otherwise, can it truly be said to 'secure' this freedom of parental choice in the practical context of life? Does not such'a plan of taxation and disbursement create by law a positive economic impediment to the practical freedom of parents who, taxed for the free choice of others, cannot afford to pay again for their own? And especially when their own free choice is not a matter' of eccentricity, and not merely a matter of taste, but a matter of respectable educational philosophy, and particularly a matter of conscience?" The speaker noted that "for very many poor parents, the fundomental oonstitutional right of free choice in education is In. deed a mere 'academic' abstraction; a sterile legal ooncept, and a practical mockery ..." Tax Benefits The third issue cited by Father 'Kenealy was that of the "equitable distribution of tax benefits to all oUf school children without discrimination." "Fundamental equality is implied in the 'due process' clauses of the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments, and expressed in the 'equal protection' clause of the Sixteenth," Father Kenealy said. "Yet, after a ceI).tury an~ a half of constitutional history, we have only recently entered what might aptly be called the 'age of equal protection.' The school segregation cases of 1954· and subsequent supporting decisions have demonstrated the humility and the courage of the Supreme Court in reversing previous error." Father Kenealy questioned if there is "any reasonable ground for distinguishing between summoning (all the school children) some day to the common defense, and aiding them all now for the general welfare, upon which the, defense may well depend?" First Amendment In a lengthy review of court decisions concerning the interpretation of the First Amendment, Father Kenealy summed up his argument by declaring that the "establishment of religion" clause "did not forbid then, and It does Il()t forbid now, the promotion of the nation's general welfare, the furtherance of parental freedom, or the equal treatment of children, by means o.f Federal aid to the education of all the nation's school children without discrimination or preference including parochial school children who study seculllr subjects required by law, in schools regulated and accredited by law."

Jesuit· Procurator Is St. Nicholas To Missioners in Alaska Posts PORTLAND (NC)-Hls name is Father Paul C. O'Connor, S.J. But to 28 Jesuit missionaries, many Brothers and nuns serving the far-flung Alaska missions he is a combination of St. Nicholas and an efficient quartermaster. As Christmas nears for the shock troops who man Christianity's front lines on the Bering Sea coast opposite hostile Russia, Father O'Connor knows that his fellow missionaries willcelebrate the birth of Christ rich in spiritual blessings. Their special material blessings for the great holiday may be an orange, an apple or even a tin of pipe tobacco. A former professor at Gonzaga University in his native Spokane, Wash., with graduate work in Europe's .finest universities, Father O'Conpor's best equipment for his job as procurator and executive director of the Alaska Jesuit Missions is the nearly three decades he spent as a soldier for Christ, in Alaska's bleak Arctic. Question of Survival "It is .not a question of building expansion programs. with me," said Father O'Connor. "It' is simply supplying food to my

missionaries 'so that they can survive. Many of them have government jobs like that of a postmaster in a tiny village. "The salary that they get does not make them rich, but it does help them survive. Most of them are pretty handy with a fishing rod, a net or a gun. They alSo scout around for driftwood to keep the home fires burning."

Pro Football Has Captivated The National. Sports Scene By Jack Kineavy Every Sunday afternoon these past few weeks has had the impact of the World Series atmosphere. Togetherness in families wherein the 1?readwinner is an avid sports fan has been fractured by the insistence of the man of the house that he be given an un- sive Shofner sco~ed three times, interrupted and unimpaired twice on Conerly aerials. Linebacking efforts, par exshot at the weekly grid spec- cellence, were turqed in by a tacular that is pro football. couple of the league's veteran George Preston Marshall, the owner of the Washington Redskins writing in a nationally syndicated weekly, makes the biased but not far-fetched prediction that pro f 0 0 t ball will in the near future supplant baseball as the national pastime in the United States. Whatever your viewpoint, it cannot be den\ed that pro football has arrived, N.F.L. style. Some years ago when Johnny Del Isola coached the Giants' line. a number of his Medford friends, Pete Cerrone included, made a hurried, last-minute trip to ..he Stadium to see New York in a key ball game. The ticket situation critical, the Medfordites wound up on the sidelines where they found themselves right on the fringe of the cataclysm. Cerrone, an erstwhile minor league flinger who later became Ted Williams' favorite batting practice pitcher, was simply overawed by the ferocity of the contact and the tremendous speed and agility of the behemJths. Each time I see a crackin' contest I'm reminded of Pete's remarks that mayhem becomes all the more vivid. Pass ][nterference Last Sunday's Giants-Eagles game had everything but good weather: Yet, these pros are so fantastic that only now and then was it apparent that the slippery gomg had a negative effect on a rt~nning play. ~ sometimes happens, the calls seemed to be go~ng consistently against the hard-pressed :.!:agles. Unusual was the high incidence of pass interference situations. This is the type of play which is most widely misunderstood by football fandom. Basically, it involves not the degree'but the nature of the contact that takes place between the defensive and offensive players. Both have equal right to the ball. Contact which ensues as both are going for the ball Is disregarded. The slightest pushing off, however, constitutes interference. This type of jockeying was very much in evidence Sunday. The' Eagles' fleet Tom MacDonald put on an electrifying performance. A receiver who runs like the All-America halfback he was at Oklahoma, MacDonald gave the Giants' secondary fits all afternoon. The Giants pre-season deal' which brought Del Shofner to New York from Los Angeles again made, the front office look ~ The elu-

but controversial figures in the persons of Sam Huff and Chuck Bednarik. Bednarik is, of course, persona non grata with the Giants. Only last week he allegedly referred to Huff as the West Virginia hillbilly who never owned a pair of'shoes before coming to New York. Huff, in his own right, would hardly win a popularity contest among his virile contemporaries. Yet, he and Be,dnarik, too, evidently have the respect of the N.F,L., for it's no revelation that players who don't aren't around very long. It's a rough game, fast, complex, thrilling., Who knows but what G. P. Marshall's prediction will be realized. Sehoolboy Basketball Making a winning start on the weekend were the basketball teams of Bishop Stang and Durfee. The Stang Spartans making their initial varsity start gained impetus as the game wore on to pull away to a 59-45 victory over Westport of the Narry League. Topping the scorers for Coach John O'Brien's quintet was 6-5 pivotman Ron Rosciewicz who chipped in with 21 points. Forwards Glasson and Zebrasky had 16 and 12 respectively. The highly-regarded Durfee Hilitoppers made their season's debut an auspicious one with a 60-56 victory over the Colby Freshmen at Waterville, Me., Saturday night. Coach Tom Karam's veteran five showed balanced scoring and good ball control in wresting the decision from the talented ,~oung Mules. Manny Papoula had 18 points, Ed Berube 14, Don Carey and Gary Drewniak 10 and Barry Machado 8. The death knoll was sounded for New England Tourney athletic competition over the weekend when Vermont officials indicated that the State would no longer participate after 1963. Connecticut already has signified its intent to withdraw after the 1962 competition. Mr. Charles Downes, principal of Arlington High and executive secretary of the basketball tournament, indicated that in the event Vermont drops out, he will recommend that Massachusetts take similar action. The decision will ultimately sHeet the annual basketball and hockey tournaments and such allied events as track, skiing, swimming and tennis. Reasons advanced by Vermont and Connecticut officials include too much loss of student time at New England events, and shortening of in-state schedules because of tournament dates.

Friors Aim to Go All the Way

PO'ovidence College Hopes 'to C~fPJfeu,e Noti@na/ Basketball Chompionsh5tp By Frank Trond The Providence College Friars, ranked fifth in the nation in pre-season polls taken by the Associated Press and United Press International, have been living up to expc::tations and are presently sporting an unblemished 3-0 record. ' ThIS year the Friars, defending National Invitation Tournament champions, appear to be the strongest quintet in PC history, as fcur out of five starters have returned from last season's team. From the crack team that clinched the NIT title, the Friars have eight lettermen back. The veteran PC cagers, combined with a trio of first-class sophOmjl'es, comprise a formidable ll-man squad that will be hard to beat. The starting five is headed by Captain Jim Hadnot, a big 6-foot, 10-inch Senior from Oakland, Cal. Hadnot last year was named to the District 1 NCAA first team; the NIT All-Star five, and he received honorable mention on AP UPI and Catholic College All-American teams. When he tallied 561 points last year-an average of 19.3 a game -Hadnot set a new record at PC for scoring the most points in a single season. A demon off the backboards, Jim, who weighs a rugged 230 pounds, last year ranked filth in the nation among rebo~nd percentage leaders. Needing little introduction is Vinnie Ernst, the 5-foot, 8-inch backcourt whiz who last year was named most valuable player in the NIT. A Junior from Jersey' City, Ernst is an excellent ball handler. Tops on defense, Vinnie--also a fine shooter--often steals the ball from opposing hoopmen. Last year Ernst, who makes up what he lacks in height by his fine all-around play, scored 285 points for an average of 9.8 a game. In his first year of Varsity play with the Friars is 6-foot, 10lh-inch John Thompson, a Sophomore from Washington, D. C. "Long John" is a highly regarded player, to whom Coach Joe Mullaney looks 'when he thinks of PC's hoop future. Thompson teams up with Hadnot in a double post of,fense that is hard to beat. As a Freshman .;John more than lived Ul) eo 811&-

vance notices by shattering old records when he scored 710 points for an average of 32.2 a game. A close second to Hadnot when it comes to rebounding, Thompson alsG has a keen eye. Last year he had a field goal percentage of, 57 per cent, with 288-baskets out of 499 attempts. Another Sophomore starter is Jim Stone, a transfer student wh<l was ineligible last year. Jim, who hails from Cleveland, Oh.io, is an unorthodox shooter whoSe specialty is a fall-away jump shot. Stone stands 6-1, and fully recovered from a knee operation he underwent last 'June, he adds greatly to the Friars' offense. Rounding out the starting five is Ray Flynn, a 6-foot Junior from Boston. A fine jump shooter, Ray has taken over the guard spot that was vacated by the graduation of the outstanding Johnny Egan. Flynn and Ernst form a fine backcourt duo that is reminiscent of the Lenny Wilkens-Egan duo. Big George Zalucki, a 6-6 Junior from Hartford, Conn., who tips the scales at 225 pounds, is back from -last year's championship team. A Marine veteran, Zalucki will see a good deal of action again this season. George starred in the NIT final last year against St. Louis, when he scored 18 points and dominated both backboards. Returning to the Friars after a year out of school due to illness is Tom Nyire, a Junior, who stands a tall 6-7. A teammate ~f Vinnie Ernst at St. Aloysius Hig}:. School, Jersey City, N. J., Nyire will see action as a replacement for Captain Hadnot. Bob Simoni, '8 Sophomore from New 'London, Conn., will give added depth to the backcourt. Simoni is particularly sharp on "long jump shots. A good ball handler, Bob is also tough on defense. Another of PC's many tall men is Carl Spencer, a 6-5 Jun'ior. Spencer, from Waterbury, Conn., has returned to the team after a fine Sophomore year. He has speed and a variety of fine shots. Rounding out what shapes up as the strongest PC team ever to take to the hardwood are two Seniors, 6-4 Dick Leonard and 6-2 Tom Folliard. Dick is a crack rebounder and top defenseman, while Tom is one of the best defensive players on the team. Leu.nard hails KrQ.'m RMUo.ll'd BJlUlll

Folliard is from Washington, D.C. The Friars, with wins thus far over Mt. St. Mary's College, Boston College and St. Francis College, have shown strong rebounding, tight defense and fine shooting. The Friars, remaining true to the form they have dispiayed in recent years, have been late starting in their initial three games. Boston College, for example, held a I-point advantage with 6 minutes of play remaining and St. Ft'ancis held the Friars to a 27-27 standoff at halftime, before being routed, 75-51. The two big men, Hadnot and Thompson, have been tops in the scoring department and have also been staging a two-man contest in rebounding. And Er::tst has been a close third in scoring, while continuing his fine defensive' play. To Coach Mullaney, mentor of the Friars the last six seasons, goes credit for having brought PC intonational prominence. In 1959 the Friars went as far as the semi-finals in the National Invitation Tournament. Then in '60 PC was beaten by Bradley in the' final. But last year the Mullaneymen won the coveted title. The Friars have been ranked among the top teams in the nation in team defense and the squad has a Iso been fifth among the top teams in the least number of personal fouls committed. Providence College tonight will host Brown University, in the fourth tilt of its 23-game schedule. Exclusive of the season's slate is the Holiday Festival, or annual Christmas Tournament, which will take place at Madison Square Garden Dec. 26, 28 and 30. This year's strong PC combine has the potential to go all ~he way, straight to a second succ~s:' sive NIT championship. The Friars, proving their mt rit of pre-season predictions, were ranked fourth nationally in the most recent polls of the AP Ilftd leading sports magazines. , Southeastern Massachuse~'tsÂ Cl;lpe Cod fans of the Friarli'will be following this talented PC team closely all season. And from all indications, the cheering could continue to, the - end of an 0 the r National Invitation ':EQlAlrQ8!ll~.
