Catholic Charities AppealShatters All Records
Most Reverend Daniel A.Cronin,Bishop of Fall River,announced today that the 1978,Catholic Charities Appeal of theDiocese of Fall River has attained an unprecedented, recordsetting amount, $1,111,699.47.In expressing profound gratitudeto all who contributed to andcollaborated with the Appeal,Bishop Cronin lauded the resultas an "inspiring testimonial" tothe faith of the residents of theentire diocese.
In a prepared statement BishopCronin spoke of his consolationthat, because of the extraordinary success of the Appeal, themultiplicity of apostolic programs conducted under diocesanauspices would continue and expand in the coming year.
The Bishop praised andthanked all who assisted inthe annual spring fundraisingendeavor conducted by the diocese, singling out for specialmention the Diocesan Director,Monsignor Anthony M. Gomes,and the 1978 Lay Chairman, Mr.Edward Machado of Somerset.
Monsignor Gomes reportedthat the Appeal in 1978 had exceeded the prior year's total,itself a record-setting amount,by nearly $65,000. This represents the greatest dollar increment in the 36 year history ofthe Appeal, save the 1959 Appeal,nearly 20 years ago, when the"pledge" system of giving wasfirst introduced.

In themeantime 'we must do our best withwhat we have, exploring and evolving,to bring you the best possible reflectionof Catholic views on the national anddiocesan level.
The Anchor is not in cflmpetition withthe secular press although its advertising would be appreciated. Our view isthat we should be a reflection of thepilgrim people of God on their journeyin the here and now, complete withtheir faults and failures as well as theirpositive qualities.
A Catholic paper is the Good Newsgiven to modern man, always keepingin mind that it is not only an information tool but also an extension of theChurch's mission and need to evangelize.
iAgain, my thanks to all and a promise that we will continue to listen toyour suggestions.

Since 147 of you asked for a frontpage box J,r index calling attention toinside stories, that starts this week,with this report as its number one entry!
Others suggestec, that we feature local columnists; but the problem here isin getting contributors to send in theirmaterial regularly.
One shining exception to that problem is -Father Edmond Rego, whose "AVerdade E A Vida" column is widelyread by Portuguese immigrants not yetfluent in English. For this reason wedid not print the "reading frequency"response to his column, since those whoread it would not for the most part beable as yet to respond to an Englishlanguage survey.
The response to the reading frequencyof the sports column is also somewhatmisleading. Those who like it, like itvery much, but we cannot expect alr.eadership lor the most part not orientedto school sports to tum to page 15!
Some comments did border on thesnide, espe::ially those referring to thenumber of times the bishop's pictureappears in the paper. !But here again itshould be remembered that the bishop'spresence at a pariHh or diocesan eventstamps it as having special significance.If a parish has worked for years, for instance, to "Juild a new church or CCDcenter, it rightly expects coverage of itsdedication and ex;>ects, too, that thediocesan s:.lepherd will recognize theimportance of the occasion. Should thediocesan paper igncre such events?
A few readers alw reserved invectivesfor our printing cf Catholic Charitieslistings, although we have received commendatio~ for the new way in which Wl~
handled them this year.
It was also inter~sting from this sideof the desk to note how many peoplefelt that \II e should expand the paper,increase the number of pages and addmore nationally syndicated columns.
There is nothing this editor would
I'll v..
As Editor of the Anchor, I sincerely wish to thank our 302readers who took time, effort andpostage to reply to our survey ofMarch 30. After comparing our returns with those of similar projectsmounted by area secular newspapers, some even providing posta·ge-paid reply forms, we are truly elatedby your response.
Naturally, it would be impossible for'me not to review and reflect on yourcomments. All of us knew from the outset that it's impossible to please everyone and the survey returns made thismore than obvious.
Some people felt that The Anchor istoo liberal, tending to absolute modernism; others felt that it's a spokesmanfor the far right, emerging from Jansenism.
But fortunately the vast majoritythought that we reflect a middle of theroad position on most issues.
More than two-thirds of those responding felt that we're trying to doa good job and in \general liked the recent changes in the paper. At the sametime, they were not hesitant in offering some sound criticism in regard towhere they felt The Anchor should be inits reflection of the Church communityon the national and local scene.
'Several strong complaints came fromthe Cape area with many people thinking this growing section of the diocesedoesn't get the coverage it deserves.Others thought the paper was too "FallRiver" oriented.
In some respects, this feeling is justified, although it should be rememberedthat many events take place in FallRiver simply because it is the site of thecathedral and most diocesan offices,therefore the location of many liturgicalceremonies and significant meetings.
In many situations, though, it is theparishes that have regular communicatorsthat receive Anchor space week afterweek. This is the answer to the subscriber who wrote plaintively, "Is ParishParade privately owned by some parishes?" It's simply that those parisheshave members who have accepted theresponsibility of getting news to us;all it takes is slipping a copy of yourparish bulletin into an envelope andmailing it to us weekly.
There are scores of parishes that donot send in news from one year's endto another; and I assure you that we haveno crystal ball at The Anchor office. Ifyou don't tell us, we don't know; but ifyour parish is doing something special,alert us, and we'll do our best to giveyou proper coverage.
The vast majority of our respondentsenjoy Father Andrew Greeley and MaryCarson, although some feel they shouldbe sent to the Spanish Inquisition forthwith. And from a selfish viewpoint itwas gratifying to note that a few peopleread The Mooring, although many don'tagree with some of its editorial views.But 'that's what editorial opinion is allabout.
Some readers offered very positivesuggestions I hope to implement assoon ~s possible. Many felt we shouldcontinue our efforts to make The Anchor a family paper; along those lineswe hope in the fall to inaugurate achildren's featur.e; and continue withcolumns, such as the Kennys, to helpparents face family difficulties.

Is God Telling Us Something?In the June edition of Liguorian, the national Redemp
torist publication, a rather interesting article appearedconcerning the famous Mr. Moon and the UnificationChurch. It was a different approach to this controversialsubject because it did not employ the vilification normallyhurled ,at the Moonies. In fact, it raised a very importantquestion that all concerned with the vocation crisis in theCatholic Church should be willing to face.
The author, Roger Marchand, reflects that mcmy areready to accuse Mr. Moon and his organization of faultsand failings. Yet, he points out, these same people areat a loss to explain why so many young people areinvolved Moonies.
The truth of the matter, he states, is that in the Orient,Europe and the United States, upper and middle classpeople from the ages of 18 to 25, are joining what may be
'termed a new religious order, namely the UnificationChurch.
The young people who follow this path pray, workand study in the same manner as religious novices. Theyfollow this way of life because the Unification Church hasa power and a vision that have captivated them. Despiteits obvious human flaws, this new religious power i~, fillinga need felt by people all over the planet.
Is God in His own way telling us something:~ Fromthis attraction to the Unification Church can WE; learnsomething that will help us in our own efforts to bringyoung people back not only to the pews but also to theseminaries and convents?
Young people in this affluent America are tired of, running and are searching for something that will trulyhelp them grow. So many have been the route of sexand drugs that they know it isn't the answer to life. Theyare hungry for the truth that they know the world cannotgive them. Unfortunately, when some do look to the Catholic Church, they do not find the answer because they seeno example.
The single most important factor that will draw youngpeople to religious life is the example of those truly tryingto live that life. Those who are already priests, dE~acons,
brotheTs, or sisters must realize that they must be livingwitnesses to the truth of their vocation. '
Today's alarming vocation trends will be reversedwhen all of us in religious life really understand that wecannot say something that we are not already living.
The Moonies offer this witness to their followers.We must do the same.
And if we do not? The answer was given quite directlyby Archbishop Jean Jadot in his address to the Americanbishops in November of 1976.
The Archbishop stated: "If we do not reverse t=resenttrends, then in 10 years we shall be unable to meet thespiritual needs of the people of God or to bring the lightof the gospel to a world that is crying Ollt for the, goodnews of Christ."
The need is thus more than evident. To meet thechallenge this need presents, all of us in the Church, religious and laity alike, must look upon ourselves as agentsof God in everything we do. We must renew a sense ofvocation in every area of Church life. We must be€:in tolisten to what God is telling us.
The Priest Shortage?seriously. I don't mean that weought to be pollyannas thinkingthat loss of clergy is a blessingin disguise. What I do mean isthat history is subject to surprising changes in the way cfsocial and religious phenomena,and that they should not throwus into a tizzy when they occur.God is present in the world andI do think he wants us to remember that he works in a mysterious way his wonders to perform.
Someone has said that the existence of the Jewish people isa sure proof of the existence ofGod. When you think of the longyears of persecution, dispersionand violent death inflicted onthe Jewish people, you wonderhow they ever survived. The answer, I believe, is in the OldTestament. God made a covenant with the Jewish people andpromised he would be their Godand they would be his people. AsSt. Paul reminds us, that covenant still hOlds good becauseGod never rejects his calls 'orhis promises.
So too with us Christians.We may dwindle in numbers attimes, and we may read somebad news about a drop in thenumber of priests toqay or tomorrow, but we know there isa divine presence among us,come what may.
living
do turn to it, not because it cando for them what might be doneby a political party. They wantthe church to herald the goodnews that God loves his peopleand wants to be in touch withthem. The actual number ofthose who actually want thisintensely is never very large.Christ called only a few apostles and sent them out to thewhole world to be his witnesses.However, their small numbersdid not defeat his plan. Theproblem then as now, is nothow the church can grow innumber but how it can grow ingrace. We can leave to God the
. number of conversions, refusingto panic simply because thatnumber decreases from time totime.
A few years ago some Catholics became panicky about the"death of God" theology. Thatfad has passed and as, we lookback, ~e realize that God isvery much alive and that therumor that he died was, asMark Twain would say, considerably exaggerated. So, too,we worry about things such asthe drop in the number of priestsin the United States.
Like so many other worriesthat never really turn out to bemajor problems, this worryabout decrease in clergy statistics ought not to be taken 'too
the
By Father John B, Sheerin
Certain Catholic papers havebeen headlining the dramatic decrease in the number of U.S.priests. I don't question this,but I wonder if it is really veryimportant.
Politicians have to be interested in statistics because they cannot be elected withoutthe necessary number of votes.But God is not a politician whofollows the latest polls to seehow many people are ready tovote for him.
Maritain says that truth hasnothing to do with arithmetic,that a religion may be truewhether it has attracted one orfive or a million believers. Thepriesthood is largely a matterof quality, not quantity, and asmaller group of priests may bemore effective than a largernumber.
"Many are called but few arechosen" is a biblical expressionthat has mystified most of us.God calls many but converts afew. It is not the many whobecome agent, of God's missionof reconciliation but the fewwho are so weak that they mustput all their confidence in God'sstrength.
Avery Dulles in his "ResilientChurch" says that people generally turn to the church, if they

If Y'ou're Catholic, You Gotta Try HarderBy
REV.
ANDREW M.
GREELEY
If you're Catholic, you gotta try harder. 'Vhen JohnKennedy was running forpresident, he had to opposeaid to Catholic schools to provehe wasn't pro-Catholic. Similarly, Joseph Califano, despite thepersonal promise of the president and the Democratic campaign platform, has to repudiate aid to Catholic schools toprove that he isn't the Catholic "representative" to theCabinet. Andrew Young neverhas to prove that he's not theblack representative, nor doesPatricia Harris. But that's different, you see. ATIso, Mr. Justice Brennan, the so-called Cath-
olic justice on the SupremeCourt, has consistently votedagainst the Catholic position inevery case that has come upsince he has sat on the cour';.That way he Proves he's reallynot the Catholic repre,entative.Mr. Justice Thurgood MarshalI,of course, is perfectly free t:>vote the bleck' position and ncbody raises a complaint.
The Irish Catholic sl,perinterdent in Illinois grew up in ~
Catholic neighborhood, but hehas to provi~ that he has tramcended that neighborhood if h~
wants to get ahead in the educational world. So he attacksneighborhood schools. He also(in a letter to me) denounced theisolation and the bigotry ofCatholic parochial schools (ignoring the overwhelrr. ing evidence that people who go toCatholic schools are lesH isolatedand less bigoted than those whogo to public schools). If you'reCatholic, the price you have to
pay for geaing into the upperlevels of tho establishment is tosell out your own people andyour own heritage.
One woman who was beingoonsidered for a number of rna·jor appointments in the Carteradministration was passed overrepeatedly. Somebody· got holdof the Whit~ House file on herand found :lfter her name'qhewords: "Catholic - opposesabortion." She was blackballed.A complaint was made and shefinally got fc job. Then, the. administra~ion's womenfolk challenged the president on abortion,there she was, right in the middle of the challengers, makingmore noise than all the rest. LikeI say, if you're Catholic, youhave to try harder.
I remember asking sociologistPeter Rossi once why thoseUniversity of Chicago facultymembers who had been sofriendly to me when I was a
student had turned bitter enemies. "That's easy," Pete said."They thought you'd be a convert. When they found out youwouldn't, they became very upset with you."
"Convert?" I said. "You meanthey thought I'd leave the.Church?"
"No," he replied. "They justthought you'd sell the Churchout."
When the education department unanimously recommendedme 10 years ago to be a professor of higher education, theadministration vetoed the appointment. One of the reasonsgiven to the department chairman was that such an appointment was impossible because"of the Church's position oneducation." I'm not altogethersure what the Church's "posi·tion" on education is, but clearly I had not repudiated theChurch or its educational posi-
tion vigorously enough to establish myself as an independentscholar. If you're Catholic youhave to try harder, and Ihadn't tried hard enough.
It is precisely sell-outs likeMr. Califano and our stateschool superintendent who mostvigorously deny the existence ofanti-Catholicism. They havemade their peace with· it; theyhave compromised, sold out theirheritage and their own community. They have to argue that thebigots are really enlightened,liberal folk, that nativism hasdisappeared from American life.In fact, they themselves havebecome worse than the bigots.
Nothing much has reallychanged over the last 40 years.If you are a practicing RomanCatholic, loyal to your churchand loyal to your heritage, youare not really welcome in theupper levels of our intellectualand cultural elites.

MARY
CARSON
I'm convinced every teach·er should be tra.ined in thetechniques used in specialeducation. Even in regularclassro.oms, the methods usedin training the handicapped areapplicable to all children.
I wasn't aware of this whenmost of my children were inschool, particularly in the elementary grades. I've only learned it since two of my youngerdaughters, one brain-injure~
and the other mentally rearded,
have been going to l! specialprogram in our local publicschools.
These special classe:3 are inthe regular schools. Where thespecial students need e:ctra helpthey remain in the spedal classand in some cases get instruc·tion on a one-to-on~ basis.Where they can handle a regu·lar class, they are "mainstream..ed" - going to regula:: classer.- even if a grade or two belowtheir age level.
Instead of being put 'oto pre..conceived cubbyholes Jf whatthey ought to be able to dostudents are constantly evalua·ted and kept in situations theyare capable of handlihg, that yetoffer a bit of a challenge andhelp them reach their fdlest po·tential.
It works! :3ut more important,the attitude of the teachers isdifferent. In normal classes,many teachers are constantlycorrecting what a child is doingwrong. In special classes, teachers look for what is right!
Handicapped children needconstant reassurance that theyare capable of doing things.They need encouragement. Theyneed praise, for on it they builda better self·image.
This is just as true of normalchildren, but it's often over·looked. '
My little retarded daughteroccasionally brings home paperswith an "A" or 100%. More often she gets marks like "Super,""Terrific," "Great Work," or"With Help." I've never seen an"F."
Maybe these special teacher~
realize that their pupil's arefighting against all the odds. . . and so they try harder.
Some years ago, when I wasbeginning to see the total effectof this method, one of my, normal children brought home anarithmetic paper. The teacher'scomment in red magic markeracross the top of the page was"FOUR WRONG!"
I dutifully signed the paper... but added a note, "BUTsix right."
We have to see what our children are doing right. As long asthey are getting more right thanthey are getting wrong, theywill be encQuraged to try harder.
I wonder how often a studentis asked to re-read something
aloud . . . because he read it sobeautifully?
No one grows from embarrassment, humiliation, caustic criticism. All it does is teach him toavoid that situation in the future - and that's often accomplished by retreating into ashell. It makes him fearful oftrying, cautious about reachingout . . . unable to grow.
"You can catch more flieswith honey than with vinegar."You can also teach better withpraise and appreciation thanwith faultfinding.
We hear constant criticism ofthe quality of our education. Ibelieve that could be reversedovernight if every teacher wouldfind something to praise in everystudent every day!

STAnMENT OF BISHOP CRONINOn April 19th, we here in the
Diocese of Fall River launched, our 1978 Catholic Charities Ap
peal. I recall that on that evening, I sPoke to a throng ofClergy, religious and lay men andwomen assembled at ConnollyHigh School and asked them,and all those whom they represented, to support our 1978Appeal.
I have today the report of therestilt/i of our 1978 CatholicCharipes Appeal, and it is magnificent. We have attained a record-shattering sum, over one
million, one hundred thousanddollars! The response of the residents of southeastern Massachusetts to my plea for support inour Catholic Charities Appealhas been overwhelming. I amheartened, consoled and delighted to have the assurance thatthe mUltipli~ity of programs inthe apostolate conducted herein the Diocese of Fail River willbe able to continue and expandduring the coming year, thanksto the unprecedented generosttyof all who have contributed tothe Appeal.
I must say, this is a mO/it encouraging sign of the vitality ofthe Church here, an inspiringtestimonial to the faith, manifest .in good works, of the residentsof the entire Diocese.
My gratitude to all is profound. ,I thank our friends inbusiness and industry and themany non-Catholic benefactorswho, recognizing the good accomplished in' our many programs of social service and pastoral care, have assisted us.I The staff at the CatholicCharities Appeal headquarters,
under the competent and devoted direction of MonSignorAnthony M. Gomes, have efficiently coordinated the overall effort, and I am grateful to them.I thank Mr. Edward Machado,the Lay Chairman, for his inspirational leadership. The parishcommittees have my profoundgratitude, as do all who havehelped in the "special gifts"phase of tb~ Appeal.
In particular, I am grateful tothe parochial clergy, the priestsof our parishes, who, in leadingtheir parishioners in a truly
pastoral fashion, have· beenmost ins~rumental in helping usto attain this, unprecedented result. Most of all, I thank all whohave contributed to the 1978Catholic Charities Appeal of theDiocese of Fall River.
,With my gratitude, J extend,as well, the assurance 'of mysincere and 'prayerful good wishthat one and all who have asisted us in this wonderful and successful Appeal will be endowectby Almighty God, our HeavenlyFather, with a full' measure ofHis choicest graces ,and blessings.

The Revival of Liturgy
Father McManusBy William Ryan
In June the Notre Dame Center for Pastoral Liturgy will present its highest honor to FatherFrederick R. McManus, vice provost, dean of graduate stUdiesand professor of canon law atthe Catholic University of America, Washington, D.C. Thisaward says Father McManus"brought into a new age of reform the work championed byearly liturgical leaders of ourcountry . . . He served as aperitus (expert) for the Consilium of the Second VaticanCouncil and was a central figure in communicating the workof this research to the Americanscene."
Still young and dynamic, itseems to many that Father McManus has always been there.He is recognized as one of theleading experts on liturgy in theworld, and he occupies a similarposition with regard to canonlaw.
"Though he was a canon lawyer, he was always interestedin liturgy," says Msgr. FrancisLally, who knew Father McManus in the seminary and isnow secretary for social development and world peace at theU.S. Catholic Conference. "Itseems to me it was providentialbecause he could bring a rich,theological experience to liturgical development and he wasvery influential. In Boston, everyone thinks of Fred McManus ason~ of those solid. reliablechurchmen that you can turn toin a variety of fields and getsensible, intelligent answers."
Father McManus' love for theliturgy coincided with a great
. historical development that culminated in the Second VaticanCouncil. For many years astrong liturgical movement hadbeen going on, particularly inBelgium, the Netherlands, Germany and France. In America,too, the steady growth of theLiturgical Conference demonstrated interest in reform of 'theliturgy.
-Father McManus helped makeit happen. He was a consultantto the Pontifical PreparatoryCommission (for the council)from 1960 to 1962 and a peritusat all four sessions of the council.
In January, 1965, he wasnamed the first director of theU.S. bishops' Liturgy Secretariat. He remained in that post for10 years.
Father John E. RoteIle, whosucceeded Father McManus inthe Secretariat, says: "In addition to his vast knowledge ofthe liturgy, his total involvementin its renewal, and his love andzeal for its celebration, FatherMcManus' personal qualitiesare what make him the outstanding person he is today in thechurch.

conciliation, on the other hand,can enhance the child's understanding and attitude. One of thechild's first phrases is "I'msorry." As the infant discoversa relationship of love and discerns the power he has to separate himself from this relationship, he discovers the pain ofalienation. This prepares him tounderstand his encounter withGod in the sacrament of reconciliation.
Yes, religious educators needparents. We cannot tell childrenthat marriage is beautiful andholy if they do not· see this athome. What parents delegateto religious educators is the function of teaching, but not the responsibility for total religiousformation.
While parents continue intheir own religious developmentthey are helping the child's.
ditional prayers of family andRoman Cathoiic tradition is communicated in the family.
More and more parishes areoffering programs which involve parents in their children'spreparation for first Communionand penance. Even when thisis not done, the parents' attitude toward the sacraments iscommunicated to the child. Forexample, :10 matter how positive the catechist's approach tothe rite of reconciliation, thechild is subtly influenced byhis parents' feelings. If parentsuse the sacrament as a clubover the child's head ("Don'tforget to tell that to Father inconfession!"), the child will seethis occasion of encounter withGod's mercy as a disciplinerather than an expression ofGod's love.

,In the 2,000 years of CatholicChurch history, the approach tothe sacraments has been as varied as history itself. The firstEucharists were house liturgieswith all the personal, intimatesharing that a domestic scene

charist moved to imposing basilicas with all the awe and ceremony that large gathering roomssuggest.
Yet, whether at domestic tableor basilica altar, the people feltthemselves a Christian community at worship. Community sharing and meaningful participationcharacterized the first six centuries of Christian worship.

Some feel that sending a childto parochial school or CCD classfullfils the obligation)f religiouseducation. But while pare,ltsmight effectively esc,lpe fornalinvolvement in their children'sreligious and spiritual formation,they cannot escape tt e fact thatthey are their most p ~ofound influence.
Religious attitudes are formedat home long before :formal religious education and doctrineare taught. It may seem farfetched to suggest that thechild's prayer life be_~ins in thehome, but there is every reasonto think this is so.
Consider the parer.t's chciceof a name for an infant. Thehistory of that nam~ will forever influmce the way it is spoken. If this name is a source ofcontention between the parents,the name will carry the hostLityoccasioned by its choice. Bu·; ifthe name is associated with loving memories for both parents,that will be conveyed.
The importance of these factors is realized whe:;. one considers that prayer is essentiallythe calling of the Lord's name.If the child's name is spo·i{enwith reverence and love, it iseasier for the little one to repeat this sound wher. calling thenames of those he loves.
As the child grows and prayerbecomes formal and conscious,his prayer-voice is an imita':ionof the sounds learned as motherand father pray over the crib,and as words of pn.yer are uttered at the family table. Whenfamiliarity is stressed, it is (:asyfor the c.hild to thnk of Godas his fnend and Jesus as hisconfidant. The attitu:l.e of reverence, love and familiarity withthe countless favorite and tra-
Pius XBy Father John Castelot
One of the most remarkablephenomena to occur since Vatican II has been the unprecedented number of people receivingCommunion Sunday after Sunday.
There was a t.ime when fewreceived except around Christmas and Easte:,. The heresycalled Jansenism had subtly engendered a feeling that we werenot worthy to communicate often. This was sad and Pope PiusX took the initiative in correcting it.
This extraordinary man wasbasically an ordinary personborn Giuseppe Sarto, son of thepostmaster of the Italian villageof Riese. Born in 1835, the second of 10 children, he grew upin poverty. Encouraged by hispastor, he went to school adaily round trip, on foot, of 10miles. A scholarship enabled himto go to the seminary at Padua.He was ordained at 23.
Seventeen' years of parishwork followed, then he wasmade a canon at Treviso. Herehis dedication and charitiesmarked him out and he was appointed bishop of Mantua. Theskill with which ;:le managed adelicate situation - two of histowns were in schism - movedLeo XIII to name him a cardinal and patriarch of Venice,where his simplicity amazed hisflock.
When Leo XIII died, a stormyconclave was held with Emperor Franz Joseptc of AustriaHungary trying to veto the frontrunner. But when it was over,Cardinal Sarto was elected onthe seventh ballot, an unlikelychoice from the human point ofview.
His family was undistinguished. He was not known for intellect or diplomacy. But theHoly Spirit cares not for allthis.
The new pope to call a haltto interference in a papal elections by a secular power but also moved closer to a reconciliation with the Italian governmentby revoking a ban on Catholicparticipation in national elections.
He caused an uproar with hiscondemnation of sev~ral "errors" lumped together under themisleading heading of Modernism. Many felt: he had overacted, today. But he did whathe felt he had to do under thecircumstances.
The aim of his pontificate was"to restore all things in Christ,"and vigorously promoted the Eucharistic life of the church, andalso urged daily reading ofScripture. He established acommission for the critical restoration of St. Jerome's translation of the Bible and in 1909he founded the Pontifical Biblical Institute for the training ofCatholic biblical scholars.

Dear Editor:I have comments to make on
several articles:- Fr. Greeley, April 27, says
that in some Catholic collegesrequired religion courses aretaught· by people who explicitlyattack the divinity of Jesus andthe resurrection. Why botherattending a Catholic university- this you can get much morecheaply in a state school. Wheredoes a Catholic go to have hisfaith developed - an evangelical Bible school, perhaps?
Dear Editor:The following is a translation
of a prayer to Don Orione, anItalian priest who spent his lifeserving the poor and whosecause for beatification has beenintroduced:
Don Orione:Someone referred to you as
"God's -Bandit." Was it becauseyou stole so many hearts forGod? Our Blessed Mother, whomyou love, must smile for joythere up above; she knows thesecrets of your grand success.And how about the mass ofsouls who bless you - thosemyriad poor whom you calledthe "rags" of Humankind thatyou went forth to gather out ofthe gutters in fair or foulweather? They must be the jewels that you "purloined" tomake her crown! And now thatyou have joined the blessed, doyou still perform God's workand go "hunting" as your namequite suggests? You know Orion, in God's firmament, thatmystic hunter? Say, are youstill bent on searching out thesorrowing and the lost soulswho look for solace in theirmisery? Then tum your eyes myway. Remember me. Please.Ave Maria.

panel of the U.S. District Courtat Boston, Massachusetts declaring unconstitutional a Massachusetts statute requiring parental consent ~efore a minorcould obtain an abortion effectsnot only the Government of theUnited States and that of Massachusetts but all government andparticularlly the ~llenia-old
primary government of the family.
Predicating its action on "unconstitutionality," the Courtproceeded by unconstitutionalmeans to legislate and to viciously attack that keystone ofthe Bill of Rights, the TenthAmendment. No element of thegovernment should act unconstitutionally, least of all the judiciary. On at least three occasions during the past year,national publications have documented numerous instances oflegislating on the part of theFederal courts, inquiring, howfar they intended to go withsuch illegalities. Of course theoonstitutional answer is not onefraction of an angstrom unit.
Too long the American Peoplehave tolerated this perversionof their Sovereign Power. Theimmorality of the neglect andits already lethal consequencesto innocent segments of the Sovereign People should rally theElectorate to its constitutionalduty. The exercise of the powersof the Electorate requires information, study, question, challenge, decision, articulation, andappropriate action. Constitutionally, these functions may not besubject to repression. The corecriterion of republican government is the investing by theElectorate of. their legislativeagents with responsibility andthe exaction from them of accountability.

• • •youthstudent wrote me a note sayinghe wanted to believe.
If lie wants to badly enough,he will eventually. Hesounded as if he thought hewould get a prize if he believedsooner than later. My answerto that is, the sooner you believe in God the longer yourfriendship with Him on thisearth and that is prize enough!
In a small mid-western community there lives a convincedand convincing atheist, a fullprofessor at a Big Ten University. He was invited by a student pastor to address a meet-'ing of Christians. The place wasjammed; It was confrontationtime! He spoke flawlessly forhalf an hour to the point thatno one can prove the existenceof God. W:l1en he finished heasked, "Any questions?" Silence."Well do you agree or disagree?"More silence. At last a frailgentleman with a' thin voicespoke up: "I guess we agree.That's why we are trying to livethe life of f.lith."
Everyone lives by faith ofsome kind, even the hedonist
. with' his pleasure principle. Hebelieves it to be valid. How doeshe know there is no highergood?
The scientist assumes hiswork matteTS. That's faith. Reformers have faith, when theyassume that people count forsomething. What distinguishesChristians is not the fact of theirfaith but its substance and content.
How to explain this to thedoubting Thomas? Don't try.Just don't blame God for whatman does. People forget thatfaith can be- risky, a gamble ofthe best kind. We waste ouryears worrying about the wrongthings.
So much depends. on attitudeand sincerity. Young peoplescrutinize the faces of the oldergeneration. Do we teach the
. young as if the faith were true?. Do we pray as if God's powerwere caring and loving power?Do we reverence Christ as if thepower of His death and resurrection could save us all fromdeath.
Maybe we are the reason forthe unbeliever!
'People continUll! to struggle with the divinityof Jesus.'
focus ~DnBy Cecelia Belanger
People continue to strugglewith the divinity of Jesur..Writers walle that tigh:; line b€;tween the human and the divinein portraying Him. TI;ey dontwant to make Him S:ll humanHe couldn't be divine, not sodivine that He comes off ur.touchable, n cold and distartGod.
Perhaps His divinity has togrow on one. Little children seeHim as a warm, loving Friend.That He is more than that comeslater, with maturity. Is Jesusloved more when one:ooks upon Him as divine? wt.y do wereally love Him?
One mother asked me, "Doyou think that Jesus would bepleased with the kind of attitude young people are showing?"
,Personally, I would say ye:l.Remember Christ's statement,
"Ye shall know the truth andthe truth shall make you free."I find nothing in Christianityon the side of obscuring or withholding any kind of truth.
In the past, church lE'aders didnot care to get into the difficu';tareas. It was better to stay inthe easier ones. In this we werenot imitating Christ. He tackledthe toughest problems of Hisday. The higgest one was Him- .self.
Since the 60's' the crisis (Iffaith has been more with usthan in any other time that Ican remember. There are timESwhen we must trus-~ blindlyin what Jesus said. Faith is nota garment you put on and takeoff. It is not magic. It is notperfect knowledge; it has nothing to do with knowledge. ManyChristians tell me they feel likefaith-failures. Because they havedoubts which blemist th~ir understanding they feel they're ge':ing nowhere.
But faith by its very natureis not subject to prod. Otherwise, we are not talking aboltfaith, but sight . . . and this hasnot been promised until later.
Now and then a searchingyoung person will as:{ me toprove the' e,cistence of God. AmI supposed to prove it or am Ihere on earth to participate inan act of faith? A nke young

Anonymolus GiftGrows Sixfold
WISCONSIN RAPIDS, Wis.I(NC) - An anonymous donor's$500 investment.:in youth lastFebruary is exp,ected to hit$3,000 by the end of the schoolyear.
Since Sharon Link, studentcouncil president at AssumptionHigh School in Wisconsin Rapids, received 500 cine dollar billswith instructions to distributeone dollar to each student atAssumption, students have beenworking to make that amountgrow.
Most pooled their money according to classes and initiatedprojects in which to invest. Individual students who chose notto pool their money brought in$118 from their (twn projects.
Although the dl~cision is notfinal, the $3,000 - which includes the initial $500 gift will probably be used to pavethe student parking lot. AndAssumption Principal JosephHouston admits he would liketo see the $500 gift given to nextyear's students for reinvestmentas a continuing school project.
Both the principal and thestudent .council president agreestudents have met the unknowndonor's challenge. '''You have theseeds, nurture them." the donorwrote. "At the end of the threemonth period, you as peoplewill have a greater insight intoyourselves.

The Last Waltz (United Artists) is a cinematic record ofthe last concert given by thepopular rock group, The Band.Supplemented by interview fo,)tage and some numbers shot in astudio, it is extremely well denefor its kind but its appeal islimited to rock fans. The amoralattitude of some of the performers together with some coa:,sereferences make it mature viewing fare. Morally unobjectiona''Jlefor adults.
Our Winning Season (AlP).The year is 1967, and a highschool senior is training to winthe mile run and beat a hatedrival. While moving to its predictable conclusion, the firmmarks time with a string of lessthan-compelIing vignettes ofschool life. The one attempt atsignificance involves an affairbetween the hero's best friendand his sister before the fri{!ndgoes off to die in Vietnam. Thismovie is mediocre in every :lepartment. Though there is nonudity, the lack of moral perspective in a supposedly seriousfilm calls for an adult rating.Morally unobjectionable foradults.

After some sexualmisadventures he Is severelyscolded in the confessional andhas decided to run away fromhome when a Supermanlike andmelodramtic conclusion takesplace.
Excellent acting and directingcompensate for the film's contrived ending; but because of asexual episode and a confessionalscene that might distort presentCatholic practice, Nunzio israted morally unobjectionablefor adults.

This Italian-made film isabysmal drivel that exploitsnudity and gory violence. Condemned.
A Different Story (Avco). Boymeets girl. 'Both are .homosexuals. They overcome this littleobstacle without too much difficulty and settle down to marriedlife, complete with baby, but shebegins to suspect he is playingaround and fears the worst. Itturns out to be merely anotherwoman. This vapid movie contains a particularly distasteful.nude scene and seems designedto offend just about everybody,perhaps homosexuals most of all.Condemned.
The Greek Tycoon (Warners).A Greek shipping magnate winsthe chic widow of an assassinated U.S. president in a courtship in which calculation is moresignificant than passion. Blatantly vulgar, this movie containsa graphic nude scene and compounds its offensiveness by trafficking in actual events seenthrough the glass of gossip andslanderous innuendo. Condemned.
