Unity Octave January J8

8t. Peter's Chair at Rome The Return of

All the "Other Sheep" To the Fold of St. Peter,

The One Shepherd Although there are 400 million

Catholics in the world, there are 1 billion, 700 million who are not members of the true Church. This means that four of every five people on earth are not Catholic. This staggering number is a challenge to the charity and zeal of all the faithful in every part of the world. It is true that the problems of Christian Unity are many and complex; they are the accumulation of centuries of political, social, and religioUs prejudices; they have been forged by the passions and strife of men. They cannot, it would seem, be overcome in a short time, except by a miracle from God. Still, the difficulties can be lessened and the way to the Church made clearer and easier by the prayer aT!d sacrifice and intelligent action of all who are privileged to bear the name Catholic.

The purpose of the Chair of Unity Octave is to beg God for the grace of the conversion of all men outside the Church. God could bring everyone to his ~nees in a moment, as' He did the Apostle Paul, but in His wis­dom He depends on the prayer and activity of the faithful to assist in the conversion of other men.

The conversion of the whole w.orld is a stupendous task, but

. it is not impossibll~. God's grace is never lacking, but man's co­operation often is. Consequent­ly the work of Christian Unity 'is the duty and privilege of every Catholic in every sphere of life, and not the obligation of just a few apostolic souls. The laity, especially, must take to heart the mission of the Church to convert all men; they work with non-Catholics, do business with them, attend the same

,schools and universities; they live with them. Thus they are in a position to work effectively for many conve'rsions. For al ­though Our Lord predicted that some day .the world would be­come One Fold under the One Shepherd, He looks to the prayer and action and ,~eal of His fol­lowers. Make the first step in the apostolate of winning souls to the Church by prayerfully ob­serving the Chair of Unity Oc­tave. '

College Officials Vote Support Of Christian Higher Education

MIAMI BEACH (NC)-A re­port calling for maintaining church-related colleges "at all costs" was accepted by the con­vention of an influential asso­ciation of colleges and universi ­ties which met here.

The report was prepared by a group of Protestant and Catholic educators under the auspices of the Commission on Christian Higher Education of the Associa­tion of American Colleges. It was presented by the commission to the 44th annual convention of the association and accepted by delegates.

About 1,000 presidents and deans representing some 750 col­leges and universities, including a number of Catholic institutions attended the meeting.

"If our spiritual heritage in 'education is to be perpetuated, Christian higher education must be einphatically re-emphasized, and all persons concerned with our country's welfare must give it high priority," said the report.

It also declared that the con­viction of the Christian college "of the unity of truth, of the love of God and of man's nature as a child of God is the surest safe­guard of freedom, high ethical standards and social responsibil ­ity....

Historic Statement, .The report was described by

association press officials as "a historic joint statement, report­edly the first in 400 years, of co­operation between Catholic and Protestant educators..."

Many educators shIed away from such a sweeping descrip­tion, and some pointed out that during World War II, many American Catholic and Prot, estant colleges joined in pledg~s

of mutual support. . The statement said that "the

Christian ~ollege is a community of teachers and stu,dents seeking to know the nature of the uni­verse created by God and the kind of society in which man can live according to God's will."

Eternal Purpose "The Christian college offers

to our generation an interpreta­tion of the whole of knowledge,

. a way of life and learning, and 'a sense of earthly vocation and eternal purpose without which science and arts, inventions and technology may enslave and de­stroy mankind," it said.

Six Catholic and six Protestant educators met last July in Her­shey; Pa., to draft the statement. Those attending that three-day gathering represented the Na­tional Catholic Educational As­sociation and the Commis"Sion on Higher Education of the Prot­estant National Council of Churches.

Dr. I. Lynd Esch, president of Indiana Central College and chairman of the .commission, said here the statement is "very important because it is expected

we will now get closer coopera­tion between Catholic and Prot­estant institutions."

Common Front Father Celestin J. Steiner,

S.J., president of the University of Detroit and vice chairman of the commission, told newsmen:

"The statement will help us both as Catholics and Protestants to present a common front. It is a step toward what some day may be a national voice by church-related colleges, a voice which the public colleges now have in the National Education Association."

A Jesuit priest addressed the third general session of the con­vention on the responsibilities of Christian higher education to the international community.

Father Thurston N. Davis, S.J., editor-in":chief 01 America, a Catholic weekly national review, said that the college's responsi­bility cannot be fulfilled "merely by stepping up basic research, increasing scholarships or mak­ing calculus compulsory."

Chief Responsibility He declared that a principal

responsibility of the college is to give its students a set of prin­ciples by which they can live.

Scoring some colleges for holding before the student the ideal of "standing unwaveringly aside from Hnal intellectual or spiritual commitment," he said:

"Such a postyre, and such a posture alone, we seem to be telling him. can be sincere, manly or even' thinkable. To support this gospel, we draw our epistemology (theory of knowl­edge) from the physicists, our cosmology from Dewey and Jus­tice Holmes, and from Nietzsche a theology that proclaims the Death of GOd.

. '''Then we leave the young un­dergraduate, fixed with a firm lack of commitment in a uni­verse without purpose, or mean­ing, ,to bone up in private on acceptable behavior patterns out of a fat volume of statistics by Kinsey."

v Fatima Figures FATIMA' (NC)-The shrine

of the Blessed Virgin here was visited by more than a million pilgrims during 1957, the year of the 40th ariniversary of 'the Marian apparations here, it has been announced. Local author­ities said the pilgrims came from 64 different countries.

With these silly but persistent charges the author deals effectively.

Two sections of the book, which I 'found most interesting, treat the celebrated Re,ductions in South America and the sup­pression of the Jesuits (1773­·1815).'

The first of the' Reductions was established in 1609. It was in re­sponsfil to a double difficulty .in converting the Indians i", the Province of Paraguay;- which in­

,eluded conside-rably -more" than ; the present territory of that '-country.

On the one hand, there was •the Spanish practiceo! enslaving '·the Indians. Officially, forbiddeh, 'slaVery'did el'ist', O~ the othe'r,

\ there 'was the character of the ~ white men, with whom the-In­

dians were in contact. It was' a ' strong argu!TIent against conver-' sion.

The Jesuits, therefore, set up Indian settlements far from white centers. In these'" the In­dians were schooled in civ,ilized ways. They were intr~duced to agriculture, some industries, sci­cial and politidll organization. They became excellent Chris­

, tians; they also prospered. In 11 :'ears, 13 such settlements, were

,instituted and before the Jesuits left South America in 1767 there were about 100.

Work Ruined Why did these admirable en-

Iterprises come' to, an end? The blaine lay w'ith the whitc men. They regularly attacked and despoiled the Reductions, both to seize their goods and to enslQve the Indians: The final destriIc­tion was motivated by greed, It was said tha't the Jesuits had accumulated prodigious wealth, although the Reductions were actually non-profit.

Basic Fact At 41'Dino Del Bo aiready has

'for Foreign Affairs. He belongs to the so-called leftist element in the Ch~istian Democratic Party, which' means that he is "dedi­cated to the practical implemen­tation of Catholic social·' teach­ings,".'

Mr,' Del Bo then focuses on the present situation, showing. the emergence of Catholic activ­ity during the resistance and its course since the establishment of the republic.

His principal critiCism of the Christian Democrats is that they

'have yielded' the initiative to the communists and stultified them­selves' by staying "within the bounds set by the secular demo­crats, '

,He points to "the manner in which .Political' CatholiCism has considered co'mmunism,in Italy. It has appraised it as a political

'party whose' principal menace consists i.:r" the conquest of the state and in the impairment of liberty, and ngt, instead; in the overturning of values' in the religious message of its' atheism,

- and in a complete overwhelming of' Christianity in its doctrine and in its practice of social life."

There has never been any official repudiation of Catholic teaching by any Byzantine rite speaking in an, authoritative way, but in­,div.idu'als, h~ve pro'tested against some teachings of the Church.

Italian Court to Rule on Bishop's Right to Publish Condemnation

Does a Catholic bishop have the legal right to publish a con­demnation of one of his subjects from a church pulpit? '

This question will be answered when Bishop Pietro Fiordelli of, Prato enters court in Florence late this month to defend himself against a charge of "s~ander."

It is the lirst time since the agning of the Lateran treaties by Italy and the Holy See in 1929 that a bishop will be a defendant in a court suit involving the 'ad­ministration of his diocese. The trial will involve what some re­lard as a conflict' between the application of the canon law of the Church and the civil laws of Italy.

The story begins when Bishop Fiordelli, 41, first came to Prato on Oct. 3, 1954. From his first day in' the diocese, he said, he was aware of a problem that threatened the very foundations of Christian life here. The strong communist element in his cathe­dral city ha~ apparently launched a program against Church weddings for its key members. .

Letter Explains The Bishop's first pastoral let ­

tier, entitled' "Marriage, Is a Great Sacrament," was issued the following Lent. It was a basic explanation of Christian doctrine on marriage and the family, but it was also intended to be an ·answer to the question that was troubling many of t.tia -.Jbjects. '

For several years, in and around Prato, none of the .com­munist communal council arid none of the important commu­'nist I)arty leaders had been mar­ried in the Church. The' fact that men, baptized in the Church were widening the breach of .eparation by a civil marriage was a cause of anxiety for' the Bishop. But what troubled him more was that they were involv­Ing their partners in marriage, many of whom had been prac­ticing Catholics.

Prato is a thriving town of 40,000 souls. About 13,000 of this number work in its several tex­tile mills and almost all of them carry communist party cards. ,

Many ot the workers had been compelled to follow party direc­tives to protect their jobs. Now party policy and religious duties ' were coming into direct conflict and the Bishop determined that decisive action must be taken.

Civil Ceremon,. The problem came to a head

en Aug: 12, 1956, when Mauro. Bellandi, a militant communist, wed Loriana Nunziati, a prac­ticing Catholic, in a civil cere­mony. ,

Before the wedding, relatives of. Miss Nunziati had approached the Bishop and asked him to intervene. When the Bishop later talked to the bride.;to-be, ahe told him that she intended to remain a Catholic and that she would like to be married in the Church, but her fiance would not agree. The Bishop later talked to the girl's parents, again with­out success. He advised both the girl and the parents what' he must do, because of the grave .candal, if the wedding should take place.

The wedding took place with Jreat fanfare. The wedding date .elected wa~ on the Sunday be­fore, the feast of the Assumption, Aug. 15, a major f~ast day in Italy. The wedding reception took place in a 'restaurant on the Cathedral Square, and after­wards the coliple stood in front el the catherdal to receive the eongratulations of their friends.

On, the fQllowing Sunda,. Bishop Fiordelli had a ~etter

read from the pulpit of Miss Nunziati's parish church, refer­ring to the civil ceremony as "a public scandal" and to the couple as "public sinners" and guilty of "public conclibinage."

Bishop's Statement In a statement prepared later,

the Bishop said:' "The Catholics of the Parish

of Soccorso (Miss Nunziati's parish) were gravely disturbed by all these proceedings. • • Therefore, to prevent a repeti ­tion of similar sad cases in­volving young Catholic women who at the last moment contract a civil marriage, it Wl!-S deemed necessary to intervene and make a statement in strong terms to the faithful, inviting them to take their 'choice: either they intend to remain Catholics and cannot contract a civil marriage, or they contract a civil marriage and accept, the fact that they are no longer considered faithful members of the Church."

In July, 195'7, Bellandi brought suit against Bishop Fiordelli, charging tha~ publication of his letter had brought serious per­sonal damage to him and ruined his business, a wholesale sausage firm. A short time later the communist press launched an' attack against the Bishop and only then, more than a year later, the case came to public attention.

Newspapers Add Char(etII The communist newspapers

added other charges. The Bishop was. accused of persecuting, the families of the wedded couple, forcing the baptism of their child and persuading banks in Prato to ,refuse credit to Bellandi's busiriess' establishment. Finally, when, Bellandi lay in a hospital ,recovering from a stroke, the Bishop was accused of sending his "henchmen" by night to do physical damage to him.

Bishop Firodelli denied all the charges 'lis follows:

Neither of the families was persecuted in any way. The par­ties involved were subjected 'to the penalties provided for in canon law. The only notorIety in the case was that provided by the communist press. Catholic newspapers were silent.

The Bellandi couple's infant was baptized at the reguest of near relatives, and the baptism took place with the knowledge

'of the mother. The bankers of Prato knew

nothing about credit being re­fused to Bel~andi until they read the charge in the newspapers. One' b'ank official said that 'if credit had even been refused Bellandi, it was because he was a bad 'credit risk, not because of his civil marriage.

The police of Prato knew nothing about the alleged attack on Bell~ndi. 'Nothing of such an attack was known to the closest relatives of the two families, and the wife herself only learned of the charge by reading it in newspapers.

In answer to the charge of slander, Bishop Fiordelli pointed out, that the letter contained only such phrases as appear in the cod~ of canpn law, which is recognized by the Lateran Trea­ties. The phrase "so-called civil marriage," he said, is contained in the statutes of the Italian government itself. He referred particularly to canons 855, n. 1; 1066 and 2357, n. 2-all of which rontain the e'xact statements contained in his letter.

Rel~gious D~cumeDt He declared furthermore that

his action was taken· ,within the framework of his authority and the exercise of his duty as recog~

niEed by Italian law. The docu-

THE ANCHOR­ 5 l:hurs., Jan. 16, 1958

ment, he said, was of a religious character, the considerations made therein were on Catholic morals and Church laws con­cerning two baptized Catholics.

The writer went to see Bishop Fiordelli to obt.ain firsthand in­formation from him on what had happened. He was occupied with many things that day, so he in­vited the reporter to put his questions to him while he had dinner.

The Bishqp is a tall, greying, ascetic-looking man, with heavy spectacles that perch on a hawk-· like nose. He joked about his homely appe'arance and spoke of the "opposition press" which had searched out the uglie:;t pictures they could find of him to make him look like the villain that their printed word said he was.

The dining room was so cold that we had to keep our over­coats on while we ate. The Bish­op poked disinterestedly at his food. The' writer commented that some newspapers had been disrespectful ·in their treatment of the case.

"By His humiliation Christ brought men closer to God, per­haps I may be allowed to do the IIllme," he said.

Deeply Grieved Throughout the conversation

it was obvious that the Bishop had been deeply grieved at what was' happening, but he' insisted repeatedly: "My people are good people." Even the local commu­nists are not bad men, he said. They are compeBed to do the things they do by, their leaders.

The reporter asked the Bishop if he had any fears on what the future held in store for him per­sonally.

He grinned broadly and ex­plained that he conside'red aU that has happened as really providential. The organized op-, position of the communists to the Church has long been an element of serious disturbance in Prato, he said, and now he thought it would all be, brought into the open and the people would see what communism stands for.

"I think yo'u will make a fine victim," the reporter said.

The Bi,shop was silent for a long time, and then answered: "I hope I may be a worthy one."

Fordham Linked With Polish University

NEW YORK (NC)-An infor­mational exchange program linking Fordham University and the Catholic University of Lub­lin, Poland, was announced here by Jesuit Father Laurence J. McGinley, Fordham president.

Jesuit Father Walter C. Jas­kievicz, director of Fordham's Institute of. Rus'sian Studies has beeri named to head the "pro­gram. He ,'will direct _the ex­change of photographs, books, specil!-l editions of student papers, art exhibits, tape'record­ings and news letters. Formation of student and faculty commit­tees 'to encourage more personal contact within fields is also p.lanned. .

The program, believed to be the first such exchange between a Western university and one be­hind the Iron Curtain, was ar­ranged \\(ith the cooperation of the U. S. State De'partment.

Father Jaskievicz, who has headed the Russian Institute since 1952, is past president of the American Association of Teachers of Slavic and East European f-anguages. He ob­tained his doctorate in Baltic and Slavic philology at the Uni­versity of Pennsylvania \lind studied at the University of Paris as a Fulbright scholar. A native of Boston, Father Jaskie­vicz taught modern languages at Boston College for a year before coming to Fordham.

Unity Octave January 20

The Submission of Anglicans t. the Authority of the Vicar

of Christ In 1534 King Henry VIII of

England broke with the Cath­olic Church. Later King Edward VI continued and Queen Eliza­beth renewed the breach with the See of Peter and set uP. "The Establishment" to replace the true Chun:h of Our Lord. To­day there are more than thirtT million Anglicans (or Episcopa­lians as they are called in the United States) in India, Africa, Canada, America, and in other parts of the, world.

The way to hasten their return is through prllyer to the Virgill Mother of God. For, the people of England, prior to the defection of its monarchs, were known for their love of Mary, to such aft extent that their country enjoyed the special title, "The Dowry of Mary." In fact, as a young king, Henry went in pilgrimage to the Shrine of Our: Lady of Walsing­ham and adorned the chapel with many gifts, especially a precious necklace for the statue.

Today we pray that through the interc:ession of the Mother of God those who belong to the Anglican Communion in all part. of the world will return to the one fold. There is an ancient saying which declares that "When England returns to Wal­singham, then Mary will return to England." And it seems that many are returning to this holT 'place. On the feast of the As­sumption, 1954, the Apostolic Delegate placed a gorgeOWl

. ,crown upon OU'T Lady of Wal­singham, the gift of the faithful from all over the land. This ac­tion symbolized their love, for Mary, and if the faithful pray to Our' Lady sufficiently for the .conversion of their non-Catholic brethren Mary will effect the fulfillment of the prophecy. With Pope L~o XIII we pray for Mary's help: "0 Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God and our most gentle Queen and Mother, look down in mercy upon Eng­land, thy 'Dowry', and upon u. all who greatly hope and trllst in thee ... 0 sorrowful Mother! intercede for our separated brethren that they may be united with us in the one true fold of the Supreme Shepherd, the Vi­car of thy· Son."

;Grave Problems :Confront 85th Congress

WASHINGTON (NC) ­The 85th Congress reassem­,bled, here in an atmosphere ;which many members grave­ly asserted was different from any theY' have previously known.

The problem, roughly, is that the United States must main­tain'the position of world lead­

'ership into which it was thrust by Wotld War II and subsequent developments. This is held to be necessary, because the 'alter­native is to place ourselves and the rest of the world at the mercy of international commu­nism.

The solution, also in broad, outlines, is to remain militarily strong so as to prevent aggres­sion against us, and at the same time to engage in a propagand/!. struggle for Ute minds of men throughout the world. All the while, we must mainta~ a sound economy.

The United States was, of course, faced with this problem when the 85th Congress first met in January '1957. But sev­eral developments, notably the launching of two Soviet "sput­niks", have intensified emphasis, and shifted the points at which it is applied.

Must Ad But the first session of the

85th Congress left a considerable number of proposals without final decision. Some of these will have to be acted on. For example the Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act, having to do with trade- with foreign coun­tries, lapses in June. So do some internal revenue measures. Con­gress will have to make up its mind on these matters. More­over, analysts are predicting ac­tion on some form of Federal aid to education, but see it chiefly in the field of science and mathe­matics.

In doing all that it must do, Congress almost certainly will not be able to reduce taxes. It is expected to strive' mightily against any increase in taxes. These are highly important con­siderations in an election year..

Election Year .Because it is an eleCtion ye~,

lQany 'of the legislators will act with an eye on next November. At'that time, all of the 435 seats in ~e. House of Representatives' will be filled by the voters, and 32, Se'riate seats will be up.for contest. ' . .

. A,U'Q£ the Representative~and' a third or the Senators now as­sembled 'will want as Utuch time as pos~ible for camp~igning in' their' constituencies. This gives rise to the expectation that the current seSsion of Congress will continue until some time in July. The first session adjourned on Aug. 30, 1957.

Burope May Retorn .. ' Hoi,. Cbureh

The Lutherans. in Europe number more than 70 million' while other Protestants ar~ about 40 million. At one time these countries, now predorni- '

,nantly Protestant, were entirely ~tholic, their.valleys and hills decorated with crucifixes and shrines of Our Lady, their churches resounding with the solemn rites of Holy Mass.

We recall the glory' of France and Germany before the break with Rome. We know how their peoples lived in the "ages of faith" and how magnificently they contributed to the work of the Church. Both countries had saintly kings and queens as well as holy bishops and priestS; the faith lived anfong these' people. Nor may we 'overlook the con­tributions of the Scandinavian countries who gave us' St. Ans­gar, S1. Canute, St. Olav, St. Bridget, St. Catherine, St. Hen­ry, and many others. These na­tions were struck so greviously by the Protestant revolt that the flame of faith was almost com­pletely extinguished and the Church became a relic of the past.

Even tol;lay the north countries present the greatest problem be­cause they have so few Catho­lics. In Sweden, for example, there are only 20,000 in a popu­lation of 7 million; in Finland only 2 thousand among 4 million; in Norway 6,000 among 3 mil­lion. Denmark presents the best ratio of all with 25,000 Catholics of a total of 4 million.

.~;'t ~;.~

Who Stole Fro'm His Fa~her," written ~y .Guild member. Man­uel Almada. '

The story presents a novel irl1erpretation of' the incident which' has embarrassed ad­mirers of St. Francis for cen­turies.

The Guild play offers a new explanation of St. Francis' mo­tives in stealing money from his own father, Messer Pietro Bernadorie. '

Unfortunately, Messer Pietro was the type of father who would drive a saint to stealing, and therein lies a dramatic con­ftict very much worth. your. while to hear. . .. . GOd has. His own' ways for mo~lding the souls of saints and' in St. Fra,ncis' case, He certainly used 80mefascinatingly different methods.

That' Lapsed 'Catholic'S .inay .Return to' The":Sac'ramerits Figures on Sunday Church at­

tendance are not very encourag­ing. In our own country almost 30 percent of those regarde'd as Catholics do not attend Su'nday Mass regula,rly.;; .Add to. this number the 30-50 per cent.who do not attend weekly Mailli in England, the millions in the so- . called Catholic countries where the ratio is even higher, and you get some idea of the tremendous number of those who have fallen away or are falling away' from the faith. And this estimate of Church attendance is only one way . to gauge the number 'of lapsed Catholics; how many· others have fallen away through a bad marriage, a mi~ed mar­riage,' ignorance, neglect, indi1­ference.

These vast nUJ:llbers of the lapsed are not in l;lnds. behind the Iron Curtain, but here in our own country and in other nations

'. where Catholics are free to prac­tice their religion.. These people are· spiritually dead; they have turned aside from the faith and from the .Mass, the value of which even a Protestant writer recognized: "If indeed the Incar­nation be the one divine element to which the whole of creation moves, the mir~cle of the Altar inay well seem to be its re'stful shadow cast over a dry" and thirsty land for the help of man . .. It is the Mass that matters; it is the Mass that makes the' difference."

It is true that to have become a Catholic then to have fallen away is. immeasurably worse

Yes, there' are thousands' of ~lendid Catholic couples earn~ estly striving for perfec~ion 1~. their vocation. They aren't com·,. plaining about the sacrifices as­~)ciated with leading Christian lari'iily fives' in the modern ~orld. i Rather,' they look upon their.

Spotlighting Qur- Schoo~'s ST. MARY'S HIGH, high school, and for her high TAUNTON

seven delegates from the bigh IChool attended their second Sodality Union meeting, ~hich

was held at Mount St. Mary's Acade'my in Fall Ri,:er.~Those in attendance were Ehzabeth Tal­lent, Elsie Cayer, Jacqueline Bouchard, Carolyn Bak~r, Jane O'Hearne, Margaret Spillane, and Phyllis Kosinski. The girls are attending these meetings to gain ideas for the Sodality which St. . Mary's High hopes to inal,lgurate in February,

The high school was repre­liented by four girls at the Bishop's Charity Ball. Acting as ushers were Lee Jackson,"Linda

·Menoche and Kathleen Corri ­gan, lleniors; and. Rosalie Digits'57. .

The student body will .cele­brate the Chair of Unity Octave, which begins Jan. HI and ends Jan. 25. This octave was begun in 1907 by Father Paul James Fran­cis, S,A., who wroie to Angeli­cans and Catholics, principally priests, asking them' to pray for unity, as Christ had prayed "that all ,may be one." ,

A half-century later the oc­tave is still gaining momentum. Each year' it is spread more widely and deeply; and only two monthS ago, Our Holy Father: wrote a letter' about this move­ment, asking lor its wider ob­servance among aU the faithful. Each day of the octave the respective classes will recite prayers proper for that day.

DOMINICAN ACADEMY, FALL RIVER

The current issue of The Catll- . olic School Journal, official pub­lication of the Catholic School Press Association,' liSts the 1957 yearbook of Dominican Academy among Yearbooks of Distinction. More than three 'hundred year­books were submitted.in the 1957 critical llervice of the Associa­tion.

Of these 12 were chosen for the rank of Distinction the' 'others being awarded eith~r All Catholic or first honors. "Domin­.'Hog" had won the All-Catholic rating for six consecutive' years previous' to 1957, but had never before been numbered among the top twelve. The honor is especially ,encouraging to the 1958 yearbook staff, who will be submitting the first sections of their book tomorrow.

Dominican Varsity defeated Durfee 28'-23 on Dominican court in a Narry League' game. It was Durfee's first' defeat of the sea­son. The oScore was close 'through­out the game, as DA led only 13-12 at the·half and 20-17 at the third stop. Claire Reilly was high scorer for DA with 13 points' Hannah S'ullivan scored 11. Much credit for the victory was due to the effectiv~ guarding of Carol Kirkman, Claire Sinotte, Joan Panek and, Je.annine Ouellette.,

Miss Gladys Brightman was referee.

Critics Serve Catholic ColI'e'ge Educat.i'on . Well

., . By Donald McDonald Davenport Catholic lUessenger' _

In the current furor over the quality of Catholic higher 'education and the condition of Catholic intellectual life in this country, it is good, I think; to 'seriously consider the. point made by Father James Mag~ire, S.J., president of Loyola University of _Chi­eagO.

Commenting .on the recent .. . f C th l' 11

Ultlclsm 0 a 0 Ie co eges and universities by Father: Jo~n Cavanaugh, C.S.C., former presi­

.dent of the 0

University' of Not r e Da~e,

. Father Magu.l~e ~id that cnh-Cism . of, ~ur

-ech?Ols whIC.h omIts recogn.l ­lion of the I r e ][ cell e, nces, ·e 0 u l.d se~i-eusly Imp a I r confidence" in .uch sch~ols_""",.:,,,,,.. .

"FOCUSing the . . . . IPOtlight of publICIty exclusIvely en an acknowledged limitati~n

... these institutions may seri ­ously shake the confidence of thousands of potential friends and thus deprive them of the Yery financial support needed to remedy recognized academic de­ficencies," said Father Maguire.

The Loyola president listed .'. ~me of the specific excellellces, 01 Catholic college education: the' lItudents' "intimate fam,iliarity

stranger whose' soh is now en­rolled at one of the 'Ivy' colleges in the east. .The man. confid~,~.to Father DavIs that hIS son is a very confused and insecure young man-and so, I find, are his intimates, at least among his clas,smates. The present is in­secure because they have no fixed values, and the future seems. insecure because they, like everyone else, are unable to grope in their minds through the, 'fogs whi'ch seem to be settling down on the world geneJ:,ally. They have no confide!:1ce what­soever in' the present leaders

•who do not inspire them." The father concluded his long

letier with. a' sickening obSt;rva,­tion: "My son, 'at present, is in a religious sense in a vacutim."•

Critieal Mood' Needed

I th'ink it would be well to keep these things' in mind as we consider the very real problems and shortcomings of our ~wn' ,Catholic_ colleges and' univer~i~

. ties. There' must be no. relaxa,7. tion of·the critical mood, 10 Gath,. olic education. There is norooril

'for \'~inplacency, as, MonsignOl' John Tracy ;Ellis, Father Gustave'

with the riches ,of philosophy I' :Weigel, S,,r., and ::F~ther Cava­

reli-,,:' the ."excellences"."

and theology;" their learning',of : napgh . have. sa,'· well demon­the "accumulated knowledge of ·~~trated.

lite past;"' the opportunity" ~" But let us ~~t lOse sight of develop their' "moral and Let \IS not lious charaete~".through "OOU~-, f~rget th'at the liberal arts stu­Riling on relIgIOUS ~~d~ m(),..~l:~·,.'derit" ilt· every Catholic college problems, throug~ sPl.rltual: ~~', 'and: university learns there treats: ... (and~ ~ntelbgent..pi.ll':·"really are absolutes, there really ticipatIOn 111 relIgIOUS exerclses.

Fair Comment I think Father Maguire's state­

ment in general qualifies as "fair eomment and criticism," though

~I would point out that fo~ many students a Catholic college edu­

'cation is nlore a technicality than a reality. Wh~t I mean is that one can hardly say that a' boy who takes the engineering or business administration course at one of our Catholic universities" has received an '~intimate famil­

&arity with the riches o~ philos­aphy and theology'." There justaren't enough hours in the da'"

01' in the school calendar to per­mit him to get 'both the tech-IIOlogy of his 'specialty and the philosophy and the theology that should be the cor'nerstone of his education. And, until very re­cently, the "riches of theology" were unknown even· to the li~-:-

eral arts student But Father Maguire's main

point' stands up. There are "ex­cellences" in our Catholic col­leges and any criticism that im-'--, plies differ~ntly may· well do the cause o.f Catholic higher educil ­lion more harm than good. And, relative to the situation in non.,. Catholic universities, these ex­cellences bulk considera..,ly larger.

In this connection, I think the address of Father ThIirston Davis, S.J., to the American As­sociatio.n of Colleges.in Florida last week should provide some legitimate satisfaction to stu­dents at Catholic schools and' their parents.

Edge of Abyss The editor of "America'" said

that too often the "ideal .con­stantly held before the student (in the_ secular college) is to stand unwaveringly aside from final intellectual or spirItual commitment." The support of this "gospel," he said, is drawR fl'(MO the "epistemology of the physicists, the cosmology of

Dewey and Justice Holmes. andfrom Nietzsche a theology that proclaims the Death of God.

·1 can't help asking." said Father Davis, "what 'basic com­

'mitments' are possible or likel,

are truths to which he can com­. mit himself and - that if OUl'

schools performed no other func­tion, this itself is to be prized

. and should on no account be denied to our Catholic younC men and women.

What we must keep'is a per­

spedive as we read the vitally:.. needed criticisms of our schools by the Cavanaughs, Ellis's and Weigels. These men are not sug­gesting that our colleges and universHies are so weak they'should be abandoned. These men are committed to Catholic

. higher 'education or they would

- not "be clamoring. for its im­

provement. ' ',' The- inherent _danger in aU

self-criticism is that it will be ~isunderstood, or that it will be misused by zealots who lack the maturity of' the critics. But if there be complacency in medi­ocrity in some areas of Catholic ~igher education,' there will be no reform until criticism has performed its function.. The

I critics are serving education ·well. The dangers of. criticism will be negligible 'if we keep in mind that it is the bath 'water, not the baby (and his excel": lences), that we want to elim­inate.

Leg ion of Dec~ncy The following films are to be

added to the list in their re­spective classifications:,

. University Site Of All-African Seminar

ACCRA', ,(NC) - About 100 African students attended the

'first all-African student seminar sponSored by Pax Romana, in­ternational Catholic student or­ganization, at the University of Ghana, here.

Delegates to the seminar came from nine countrIes and terri ­tories and represented every university in Africa south of the Sahara.

Addressing the semlnar, Prime Minister Kwame Nkrumah 01. Ghana, said that the country owed· much to Christian mis­sioners, who came "in a spirit of devotion."

Ghana, he said, must develop as a-Christian country. "We hav'e our difficulties, fears and hopes," he said, "and we hope that you will be able to help us put these fears and hopes in the right Christian perspective, so that we can all make some contribution to the progre~' of th~ ChI istian world."

Present at the meetings were Auxiliary Bishop John K. Amis­sah of Cape Coast, Ghana's first native Bishop, Bishop Joseph O. Bowers, S.V.D., of Accra, and Bishop Andrew V. Bronk of Kumasi..

Speaking on."Religion and the African University," Bishop Am­issah urged the students to 5+udy African . ancestral customs. 90

that the good ·things in the cus­toms might be Christianized, Na­tive customs and traditions, he said, can be used to bring re­ligion to the people,

The Church offers you many of the world by sanctifying the means for attaining this purpose, ordinary and ,even the most but one reinforces anq. stabilizes trifling a~tit>ns in the, spirit of the others and makes them easy. if you employ this ,means man­fully, you cannot fail. The secret Of success is the Third Order of S( Francis. The Popes vouc,h 'Jor' its efficacy.

• Hon to ~veryday duties and solid piety, opposing sentimentality, singularity and ostentation. It is a deadly enemy of the "holier than thou" attitude. An institu-Hon solemnly approved and in­cessantly 'recommended by the Church and for centuries patron­ized by saints and ,penitents, popes and cardinals, hishops and priests, kings and soldiers, schol­ars and artists, philosophers and poets, industrialists and crafts-· .men, must be sound and sane.

If the Third Order is old­fashioned and worn-out, then the Gospel also has lost its useful­ness, for the Third Order applies ~ Go~pel to daily life. -Moli.. ness is as necessary for salvation and as fundamental for social improvement'now.as in the past.

No less a master than Pope Leo 'XIII has accommodated the Tertiary Rule to modern condi­tions. His successors tell us that the Third Order is wonderfully

,X),adaptedthat itto will do very much tomodern needs' (Pius reform public and private morals (Benedict XV), that it has today the opportunity to be just as

, valuable for the general welfare as in its beginning (Pius XI).

It is just what the man of today m~eds. To be a good Ter­tiary implies manly, Catholic conduct but nothing extraordi­nary. Pope Leo XIII'said: "You need not quit society, the fam­ily; or your earthly possessions. There is no special vow exacted. True liberty is not curtailed in

Jesus Christ." ' The rule is short, pithy, mild,

."the marrow of the Gospel," Tt is an exceedingly practical rule of life, but in itself does not oblige under any sin.

' Manly Independenee A man who' would be re­

spected' and loved must be'lord in his own castle not allow his passions and su~roundiJlgsto control h'im. He must be a man of character.' By its rule of Christian moderation the Third Order is of inestimable value in gaining self-control and manly .independence. The members are to be temperate in eating and drinking, pure' and 'charitaBle,

'avoid dances and shows savoring of license and all forms of dissi ­,pation, and observe in all things the golden mean suited to each one's station ii1'life.. An excellent, 'recipe for a Irian who wishes to be an honor to his sex. : A strong and noble chara'cter 'rests on that deep, active faith ,which imparts the light,strength and consolation necessary to tri ­umph over human respect and earthly advantages. The Third Order, a flower from the wholly Catholic heart of the Seraphic, Saint, is ~ nursery and protec­tory of. faith. .

' To prove this, mention need but be made of, the chief reli ­gious exercises it imposes: ~res­ence at the monthly meetmgs, reception of the sacraments every month, attendance at Holy

'Mass on week days by those who can, and the daily; recitation of. twelve Our' Fathers, Hail Marys and Glorys. " ,

Too much praying, ,perhaps! But Our Lord commands us to pray always. Prayer is, to the soul what food is to the body. A ,man needs prayer in order to be what he should be.

Archbishop Brady, was com-' menting ort recent protests over the 'use of white mice in rocket experiments by a g'roup, of 'Aus­tin Minn., boys who attend Pa~elli High School there.' ',' ,

"If we try ,to save our youth from pornorgraphy,"he said, "old man Law steps in to protect the freedom of the press, or printing, to insure the right of the people to know and hear anything and everything, to protect the right of merchants to make money ,at you:th's expense."
