-Open housing programs of­ten, as in the Chicago case ruledon by the court, perpetuate blackghettos in the cities.

-Most urban ethnics, pre­dominantly Catholics, are nomore financially able than theirblack neighbors to move intothe s4,burbs.

-Many urban ethnics do not,in fact want to move to thesuburbs but want to maintaintheir own neighborhoods. Butif it is not federal policy not tobreak . up such neighborhoods,it is also not federal .policy tomaintain or improve them.

"Any time they talk about'ethnics' is wholesome, I sup­pose, but there's been no pay-offyet," according to Father PaulAsciolla of the National Centerfor Urban Ethnic Affairs, com­menting on the "ethnic purity"debate.

In fact, he notes, "both eth­nics and blacks have been writ­ten off in the campaign so far."

Father Asciolla and other eth­nic leaders, such as Msgr. GenoBaroni, president of the NationalCenter for Urban Ethnic Affairs,complain that ethnics and blacksare portrayed as being in con·flict when they really have agood deal in common. Msgr.Baroni, a leading community or­ganizer, emphasizes the need toestablish black-ethnic coalitions.

"Ethnics have more in com­mon with those below themeconomically (blacks) than theydo with those above them," ac­cording to Father Asciolla. An­other ethnic specialist, author­theologian Michael Novak, notesthat progressive legislation inAmerica has only been obtainedwhen blacks and ethnics haveworked together.

Msgr. Baroni argues that thetwo major missing elements- inpolitical discussion of "ethnic"issues are an understanding ofpluralism and a policy for neigh­borhoods.

The problem, according toMsgr. Baroni, is that "we aredivided, fearful and afraid ofeach other." America is reject­ing the "melting pot" conceptbut has not yet found a way ofexpressing pluralism or findingways to live together, he says.

"Pluralism, domestically andinternationally, is a reality andeducation to live in a pluralisticworld, therefore, a necessity,"Msgr. Baroni told the NationalCatholic Educational AssociationEaster week. "The task is toprepare people to live in a plu-ralistic world in communitiesrepeating his support for open

The first involved Jimmy Car­ter's "ethnic purity" commentsand reaction to them. In a news­paper interview and later in aspeech, Carter said he, opposedthe use of federal power tobreak up "ethnic purity" in eth­nically "homogeneous" neigh­borhoods. When he was crit­icized for his remarks, he repliedsupported open housing.

Carter's main Democratic pri­mary opponents at the time, Sen.Henry Jackson and Rep. MorrisUdall, criticized Carter's lan­guage but indicated that theirpositions were essentially thesame as his.

Congratulations are surely in order to all the manystudents who have completed their courses on many levelsof academic achievement.'

Whether is be the elementary or secondary or collegeor university or graduate level, the reaching of a goal is acommendable thing and indicates a measure of work and'determination and constancy.

Persons need these victories to realize their potentialfor succesS and they deserve the accolades that come tothem from administrators and faculty and pleased parentsand relatives and friends.

They deserve some time to bask in their spotlights, toenjoy the sweet smell of success.

They also deserve to be reminded that a graduationis also termed a commencement.

The cycle is never just brought to an end.Every step in life is a progression toward another step;

every level a reaching up to another level; every finish theinauguration of another beginning; every graduation istruly another commencement.

The satisfaction of a step well completed is also thechallenge to another yet to begin.

And this is precisely how an academic graduation mustbe viewed.

There is nothing frightening or tedious or dishearteningabout such a view. It is the sign of life, of vitality. It is theglorious and memorable quality 'of growth. And the successinherent in the reality of a graduation points to the challengeand future success of the newly-undertaken commencement.

Life at StakeAny time that Pope Palll, Mother Teresa and Barbara

Ward look to a meeting with hope and expectation, thenthe rest of us should pay attention as well..

This is· the case with the United Nations Conferenceon Human Settlements - Habitat - taking place in Van­couver, Cana;da.

The emphasis is on housing but not merely from astatistical or economic point of view. A Vatic'an paper ad­dressed to the group calls for the highest priority to begiven to housing in the widest sense - the practical settlingof persons in houses that take into account their essentialbiological needs such as nutrition, hygiene and health, andinclude provisions for their social needs to enable themto live worthy lives in terms of family stability, employ­ment, education and community ahd religious needs.

The wish of the Pope is that persons be viewed in'their totality and that answers to housing needs be notonly in the economic or consumerism ~rea, but take intoaccount fundamental requirements especially with regardto' the most helpless and abused and victimized.

I~ an age when people are anxious to protest at thesight of injustice and poverty and evil, here is an area ofmost pressing concern, and here is a conference in aposition to do something on a global scale to answer aglobal need.

This is a worthy effort toward which people every­where need more sensitivity, an effort most deserving ofraised voices and insistent demands for action.

For what is at stake is life.

"Actually, I found that thejob of Regional Superior waslonelier, in a sense. It involveddirecting mission work, dealingwith the hierarchy and the gov­ernment. Working directly withlocal people is much more fu1­filling and satisfying."

Father Breen's first visits tovillages along the rivers weresimply to make contacts withparishioners. Then he was ableto introduce the catechists, whowould stay for a week or two indifferent villages.

"The main job of the catech­ists is to find people willing tolearn the doctrine and to teachit to others in their' communit­ies,'( says Father Breen. "Afterthe first year, we have 128 localleaders who have 'taken thebasic three-week course andhave promised to teach others."

Father Breen is looking for­ward to more help in the parish.Three young women who teachat Monte Maria School in Guate­mala City have given up theirvacations to work in Sayaxche.Basically their .job will be totalk with various groups of par­ishioners to find out their needs.

"Then we will have to sitdown together and decide thebest way to meet those needs,"says Father Breen.

The parish already is growingas new families settle along anew road that promises to openup the jungle area. They arebuilding a small town called LasCruces. They come from all overGuatemala, from the 'mountainsand lowlands, to look for land,although the government has notyet decided its policy of distribu­tion.

center of the area. Father Breenplans to build a small house like 'the others there. He would livewith and in the style of the peo­ple he serves.

orite part of the sacristan's job,he said, and it forms a large partof his work, with some 12Masses celebrated at the chapelon holy days for the conveni­ence of downtown workers andshoppers, and many on otherdays as well.

"We used to have 32 Masseson holy days." he .recalled, "butnow that vigil Masses are per­mitted, we don't need so manyon the holy days themselves."

Carter is also involved in pre­parations for other chapel serv­ices, which include clinics for al­coholics and mental p~tients,

lecture series and nearly roundthe clock availablity of counsel­ors and confessors.

A close friend of Carter isRev. Ralph Tetrault of SacredHeart parish, Fall River, and hewas pleased that the diocesanpriest was among concelebrantsof the Mass last month whichmarked both the 20th anniver­sary of O~r Lady's Chapel andCarter's affiliation to the FirstOrder.

Rare Franciscan HonorFor New Bedford Man

FIRST ORDER FRANCISCAN: The rare honor of affilia­tion to the First Order of Friars Minor is conferred on JohnCarter a! Our Lady's Chapel, New Bedford, by Father Ray­mond Hlrt, OFM., rector. Carter has privileges of wearingfranciscan habit, receiving hospitality at any house of theorder.

, The doors of every Franciscanhouse in the world are open toJohn Carter and although a lay­man he may wear the brownFranciscan habit. These privil­eges came to the New Bedfordman last month when he was af­filiated' to the First Order ofFriars Minor in ceremonies atOur Lady's Chapel, New Bed­ford.

Sacristan at' the busy down­town chapel for the past 20years, Carter said he was a long­time Franciscan tertiary, theusual affiliation for the laity, butthat he -was "very surprised" tobe received into the First Order.Other area members are JudgeWalter Considine and BishopJames 1. Connolly.

Carter's association with theFriars Minor began as soon asthey arrived in New Bedford twodecades ago. "At first I was avolunteer at the chapel," he re­lated. "I would help out onweekends with cooking. Thenthe sacristan position became av­ailable and the superior askedme if I would be interested in. it. And I've been here eversince."

Favorite PartPreviously Carter had worked

at St. Luke's Hospital in NewBedford and he admitted heknew nothing of the duties of asacristan. But he is now an ,ex­pert in all phases of the work 'and when necessary he also re­lieves the friars on duty in thesmall religious goods and con-

and the status of women is an"everything" conference.

One of the most difficultthings here has been to keepabout 1,000 delegates and 120non-governmental organizations(NGOs) on the Habitat track­housing, homes, cities, rural­urban distribution, migration,and national and internationalpolitical decisions. It was veryeasy for specialists to get offon an economic technology orarchitectural kick, forgettingHabitat's purpose.

The nitty-gritty of Habitat isbeing done in three committees,out of which wiH come: a decla­ration of principles, recommen­dations for nationa1 action byparticipating governments, andprograms for international coop­eration. The international pro­grams part will suggest how theUN can 'reorganize its machin­ery to cope most effectivelywith human settlement prob­lems.

"What do you hope fromHabitat?"

"If they concentrate on onething, and do it, it will beenough."

There were many moving mo­ments in that day, but for me,the most moving was at thatpress conference. As I stood be­hind her, and watched the -scene-suddenly my heart burnedwithin me.

I think I got a glimpse of herrelation to us - to the hard­bitten, the incredulous. Her littlebody (I could not see her face)­so tiny, so humble-contrastedstrangely with the rest, and itseemed odd to see so little athing the center of so muchscrutiny.

And 1 knew that she wasbearing witness to anotherorder in that moment, asat every moment. That this wasone side of her prayer. Thatshe was suffering in that mo­ment for us, with Jesus hermaster. That none of us wouldever penetrate her mystery ofthe cross.

"I 'was so worried aboutthem," she told me. "Theymust be cold."

She satobediently at one end of a ply­wood table, and journalistscrammed around the walls, andstationed themselves on thedusty table, for lack of any­where else to sit. She spokevery softly about the love ofGod, and answered their ques­tions.

"That is not God, that isman" she replied.

By Jerry BartramVANCOUVER (NC)-She had

a speda" word for everyone she­met, a word that went straightto the soul.

When she met a youngmother, she said, "Make yourhome a holy place."

The young man at the gateof Habitat Forum who, stoppedour car told her how wonderfulshe is, and she said, "We worktogether. I cannot do your work.You cannot do mine. But to­gether we can do somethingbeautiful for God."

To Barbara Ward: "Peter stillhas work for you to do."

To me, taking a tender inter­est in my work and my paper,

. the B.C. (British Columb,ia)Catholic, she said that peopleare damaged more by the thingsthey read than almost anythingelse, and that I have a great re­sponsibility to bring truth.

I was her chauffeur for mostof the day she spent in Vancou­ver for the Habitat Conference.It was a busy day, a day of manyengagements, many encounters.

And always she was still andrecollected. Always she had aspecial message for each personwhom she met.

As we 'left the chill dampnessof Hangar 5, where a sympo­sium on the handicapped was in

tunately for him, there wasn'ttime. I stormed off, and drivingto the appointment rehearsedthe piece of my mind I wasgoing to give him when I gotback. Before long I had mentallyprepared a technicolor tirade.

And what did I accomplish?I had driven unsafely, possibly

even endagered others' lives. Isowed ulcer seeds for myself.And I really didn't change beinglate for the appointment.

For what? My anger wouldn'tchange whether or not he'd belate again in the future.

Thinking about it on the wayback home, I decided there mustbe a better way. I tried to thinkabout the situation differently.

Suppose all those fears I hadwere true. Suppose he had beenkilled in an accident.

It ,seemed morbid . . . till Itried imagining it.

I pictured our church filledwith relatives and friends, and acasket in the center aisle.

It took great effort; it waspainful. But I made myself actu­ally see the faces of my family.

Our pastor was in the pulpit,about to give the eulogy.

What would he say?.Would I want him to express

the angry thoughts 1 had beenrehearsing? Would I expect tohear about my son's irresponsi­hility, inconsiderateness, thought­lessness, selfishness? Would Icare about the difficulty itcaused me?

Or would 1 want the eulogyto reflect my deeper thoughts.

I would stop and considerevery good thing about him. Iwould enumerate his virtues. Iwould profess my love.

One of the greatest humanfailings is that we wait untilafter pE:0p1e are dead to givethem a piece of our heart.

Obviously, whenever I'm an­gry I'm not going to imaginesomebody's eulogy. But maybethere isa better course - half­way between two extremes._ Next time you're angry, try it.Try getting off by yourself. Thinkit through thoroughly.

I found it did as much goodfor me as it did for my son.

I rarely get angry. But when I do, I hold it inside. Thereit churns and storms. This does nothing for solving theproblem that caused me to be angry in the first place. I don'tlike being angry. I've been told that some people find greatpleasure in nursing grudges,carrying on feuds, .startingdonnybrooks. That wouldmake me sick.

Even if there is apparentlygood cause, I find anger erodesme. And if the anger is at some­one I love, it can be disastrous.

If I'm annoyed with one of mykids, I try to be reasonable, tryto explain. Usually, in a day ortwo, I've forgotten whatever itwas. And most times I've for­gotten because it wasn't reallyworth getting upset about in thefirst place.

But every once in a whilesomething really sets me off,like an incident that happenedthe other day. Now, I think I'vefound a better way of dealingwith anger.

My teen-age son took our fam­ily car and promised he'd beback by noon. I had an impor­tant appointment across townat 4 p.m. .-

By 1 I was annoyed that hehadn't returned, but there wasstill time. By 2 I was sure hehad had an accident; I was readyto check with the police. By 3I was furious, ready' to wring

. his neck. By 3:30 I envisioneda lO-car pile-up with him in themiddle.

All afternoon I had fluctuatedbetween anger and fear. Oneminute I was sure he simplydidn't care whether I was ontime for· my appointment; thenext minute I was sure he'dbeen in an accident.

At 3:45 he walked in, handedme the keys, and said, "SorryI'm 'late, Mom. I got talking tosome of my friends . . ."

to intensify the petition drive,setting a goal of between 5 and10 miIlion signatures.

A part time advertising sales­man for The Catholic Witness,an insurance adjuster and a can­didate for the permanent diocon­ate, Mazzacaro placed the fullpage ad, which explains the Fa­tima story and includes a peti­tion to the Pope, in the March11 issue of the Catholic weeklynewspaper. Since then he has,with the aid of financial contri­butions, run smaller advertise­ments weekly.

An eight page pamphlet ex­plaining the petition and its re­lation to the conversion of Rus­sia is sent free by the Blue Armyto anyone who sends a stamped,self-addessed envelope to itsheadquarters in Washington,N.J. (07882).

Those interested in sponsoringa similar advertisement in theirown diocesan paper may writeto Mazzacaro at' 3300 Union De­posit Road, Harrisburg, Pa.(17109) for a free copy of hisadvertisement.

POWER OF PRESS: Are Catholic publications read? "Youbet they are," smiles Gus Mazzacar6 of Harrisburg, Pa., dis­playing some of thousands of responses to full page ad inhis diocesan paper asking signatures for petition that Popeconsecrate Russia to Mary. '-

HARRISBURG, Pa~ (NC)Henry Kissinger wants to estab­lish detente with Russia. GusMazzacaro wants to convert it.

Using a full page advertise­ment in the Catholic Witness,Harrisburg diocesan newspaper,Mazzacaro _said he has collected10,000 signatures on a petitionasking Pope Paul VI to consec­rate Russia to the' ImmaculateHeart of Mary.

His effort stems from· whatthree Portuguese children learn­ed at Fatima Portugal early inthis century.

Our Lady appeared to thechildren six times between Mayi3 and Oct. 13, 1917. During theJuly appearance, the children re­ported that she promised theconversion of Russia when .thePope and all the bishops of' theworld consecrated it to her im­maculate heart.

The Vatican has not respond­ed to the request, despite pleasfrom a number of quarters, in­cluding the International BlueArmy of Our Lady of Fatima.

Claiming' a membership of 20million around the world, theBlue Army is a persistent advo­cate of the consecration and has'collected 2 miIlion signaturessupporting it, mostly in the Un­ited States.

Millions Wanted

But because they felt such anaction, with all its political andtheological overtones, demandedmore worldwide support, BlueArmy leaders decided last year

"I will take on half the sales­men of any sizable corporation;let the corporation take on theother half. Starting with themost successful salesman, thecompany gets the best man; Iget the second best and so ondown the Hne. I guarantee thatafter the first year I can improvethe sales of my group at 1eastuntil its record exceeds by fiveper cent the group that was pre­viously leading."

This author has done this timeand time again and now hisideas and theories are in thisbook.

While many companies wouldbe glad to hire Molloy to workout their training program, thenext best thing would be to havetheir junior executives read thisbook. And I certainly feel thata book of this type should bewritten for career women.

Molloy also touches on dresscodes and I feel that this is an­other area that where guidanceis essential for both men andwomen in the business world,an area that is slowly erodingsimply because of the disappear­ance of such codes.

For 30 years or more there -has been intermittent talkin Washingto~ about the need for national health insurancein the United States. This year there is at least a possibilitythat the Congress may stop talking about it and begin to act.The_ Congress has before it awidely sponsored Health S-e­curity Act, strongly sup­ported by organized laborand a number .of other influen­tial organizations. It places tiglltcontrols on doctors' fees andhospital charges- and mandates a

rather sweeping reorganizationof the health delivery system. Itwould also change the wayAmericans pay for medical carewith financing done in a mannersimilar to that used in the SocialSecurity system.

Two House subcommitteeshave conducted a series of hear­ings over the last few monthson national health insurance.The issue is likely to get an­other airing during the summerand early fall when labor andmanagement in several key in­dustries enter this year's round ofcollective bargaining negotia­tions. The auto workers, whowill begin negotiating with theBig Three in July, anticipate thatthe subject of health care, and'who pays for it, will loom largeat the negotiating tabie.

Not WorkingThe present system of volun­

tary controls supplied by BlueCross/Blue Shield and other ma­jor insurers is simply not work­ing.

This seems to be the case na­tionwide. For example, here atthe U. S. Catholic Conference,health premiums for conferenceemployees was recently in­creased by 57 percent-an in­crease attributable to skyrock­eting health costs in the nation'scapital. But accelerating costsare only a part of the problem.Lack of adequate preventivehealth care, over-specialization,and other abuses are also beingstressed as 'arguments in favorof the enactment of a nationalhealth insurance program.

I do not mean to suggest thatthe health security proposal nowpending before - the Congresswill necessarily be enactedin its present form. - TheCongress will almost certainlyhave to consider amendments.Catholic hosl'ital interests,among others, will no doubtseek to revise the present bill. Isay this on the basis of recent

Maybe it is a necessary lie,a lie for the' "good of thechurch," as John Courtney Mur­ray used to say.

But let me ask such men onemore question: They know, ofcourse, that the basic outlinesof our findings about the rejec­tion of "Humanae Vitae" andthe document's impact on theChurch are true. In private con­versation they never deny it.Perhaps they have to reasserttheir loyalty to the encyclical tokeep Rome happy. But whatdoes it do to the Church whena document which has' clearlybeen rejected is reasserted in theteeth of the evidence that it hasbeen a disaster? What happenswhen the teaching Church saysto the learning Church, in effect,"We don't care what you think?"

Does it not weaken even morethe credibility of the hierarchy?Does it not make a bad situa­tion even worse? Would it nothave been better to iust saynothing?

it suggests that it does. Thereare no social scientists on thestaff of the Church and no ca­pacity to play the role of intelli­gent consumer of social sciencedata. Resident journalists likeMr. Shaw must double in brassas social scientists whenever theChurch needs such expertise. Tosuggest that the capacity for re­sponsible professional evalua­tion exists is merely a techniquefor questioning the competencyof researchers - one with minoreffectiveness. it is also dishonest..

In truth, given the newness ofthe social change style of re­search lmd the complexity of the"d systems" models, I doubt thatthere is a single sociologist onthe staff of a Catholic universitywho is capable of making a tech­nical evaluation of the report(one previous evaluation doneby such a "scholar" betrayedthat he didn't even understandmultiple regression techniques).There are certainly Catholics inthe country who could make anintelligent evaluation and exposethe weakness of the survey ­and of course it has weaknesses,as do all human efforts (manyof them quite explicitly acknowl­edged in the text). But the offi­cial Church doesn't know a1;loutthem - and with good reason.

Meciiocre ImitationThe Catholic universities

should have done this study ofthe effects of the Vatican Coun­cil and "Humanae Vitae"" a longtime ago. However, having longsince committed themselves tomediocre imitation of what ev­eryone else is doing, all they canprovide now is jargon for chan­cery office releases.

What the Church leadershipis hoping for, of course, is thatsome inept and envious Catholicsociologist will ride into the frayto prove that "Humanae Vitae"was not a disaster for theChurch. Doubtless, such peoplewill turn up in the reviews ofthe book since Catholic journals,as a matter of principle, it wouldseem, choose envious and ineptreviewers for atl their books.

One Catholic journal askedfor a list of names of competentscholars to review the report,then told me that of course itcouldn't accept a recommenda­tion from the author. Why thehell ask, then?

'Necessary Lie'But there is more dishonesty

than the pretense of scholarlyevaluation. The text of the re­port has been available to cer­tain Church leaders for a longtime. Indeed, many of themwere briefed in great detail onits findings - as a matter ofsimple courtesy. I had no inten­tion of revealing these briefings

- and even now, I wiH notname names - but the impliedcharge of incompetence doesn'tgive me much choice. IIf theleadership seriously planned anevaluation, it could have doneone months ago. It didn't and itdoesn't, and lies when it at­tempts to imply that it does.

Says Hierarchy Credibility~eakened by Evidence

The Chicago chancery's state­ment did not bother to mentionthat the report insisted on thepriority of theology in determin­ing Church teaching - thusneatly implying that the threeauthors of the report were deny­ing that priority.

Such bland restatement of theofficial position is the sort ofthing that the hired PR guns ofthe Church - like the USCC'sineffable Russell Shaw - cangrind out in their sleep. No oneis expected to take them seri-ously. .

But there was a nervous edgeto many of the statements. Longstudy, controversy, leading ques­tions, dubious methods - all ofthese neat little phrases weretossed out to suggest that, well,maybe the authors were not allthat competent and that theChurch leadership would call inits host of superior social scienceexperts to sagely reveal to themthe weaknesses of the method­ology of the report.

The Chicago chancery wasquite explicit about it all.

"Evaluation by professionalsin the field will be helpful, sincethe authors suggest that theirstatistical study definitely provesa casual relationship (betweenthe birth-control statement anddeclines in religious practicesand the Roman Catholic schoolsystem). This 'certainty' seemsto exceed the scientific limita­tions of inference normally asso­ciated with the statistical meth­ods employed."

Simple TruthNow if the chancery's hack or

his expert on sociological jargonhad bothered to read the reportbefore shooting from the hip, hewould have realized that the "dsystems" model used in the sortof social change research at­tempted in "Catholic Schools in'a Declining Church" do indeedadmit of causal inference andunder some circumstances canproduce "definitive" proof - atleast definitive insofar as historyor social science are concerned.

The simple truth is that theAmerican Church - to say noth­ing of the Chicago chancery ­has no intention of providingany "professional evaluation" oJthe report and it misleads when

I thought I was beyond being shocked by the intellec­tual dishonesty of the American Catholic Church, but thereaction of "official statements" to the new study, "Cath­olic Schools in -a Declining Church," surprised even me.Obviously, Church leader­ship has no choice but toreaffirm its enthusiastic sup­port of the birth-controlencyclical and to note-as thereport did, incidentally - thatsociology cannot dictate theo­logical decisions.

First, be aware of the strongtendency not to listen and the

By FATHER JOSEPHM. CHAMPLIN

"The Ultra Secret" is a fascin­ating account by F. W. Winter­botham of how the British un­dercover service cracked a Ger­man. "unbreakable" secret codejust prior to World War II.

Through theft from Germanyand reconstruction in Englandof a complex machine for dis­patching signals, the Allies knewall during that conflict in the1940s the most hush-hush ordersof the GerJ1lan High Commandalmost instantly and sometimeseven before the Nazi field com­manders.

Poor Listener

Winterbotham in summaryseems to accuse Clark of notbeing a good listener, of failingto take advantage of ideas orinformation available to him, ofan inability to accept somethingnew and unfamiliar.

I leave to others the task ofevaluating that writer's criticismabout Clark and of determiningfor history what exactly happen­ed at Anzio. As in the accountsof Christ's appearances after theResurrection, I am sure theseare many and varied reports.

But accurate or not, it doesoffer an illustration of listeningor, better, non-listening.

Gen. Clark's apparent failureto heed the advice given costlives and now receives publicitybecause he served in a leader­ship role of great importance.Our failure to listen may nothave such drastic consequences,

In the book Gen. Mark Clarkdoes not fare very well. At an

. initial briefing session duringwhich Winterbotham gave de­tails of "Ultra" to the top mem­bers of Eisenhower's staff, theauthor writes:

"Mark Clark was restless fromthe start.' I explained not onlywhat the source was, but in anendeavor to catch Mark Clark'sinterest gave some pertinent ex­amples of what it could do. Ihad intended to follow this withan explanation of how the in­formation would reach him, andthe security regulations whichaccompanied its use. But MarkClark didn't appear to believethe first part, an dafter a quart­the first part, and after a quart­self and his officers on thegrounds he had something elseto do ..."

Later, in the description of theagony at Italy's Anzio beach, th~

writer details Clark's refusal toaccept and follow the informa­tion "Ultra" supplied him on twooccasions. The consequenceswere dismal.

The General finally, monthsafterwards, did believe secretdata advising him Rome was un­defended. "He organized twoflying columns and made a tri­umphal personal entry into theEternal City, ahead of anyoneelse."

endurance that comes of listen­ing to those who emotionallysuffer. It is in accepting our ownfeelings of joy and pain. Jesus'rising is in the "meal on wheels"program, the hot lines, the giv­ing of blood. Jesus' rising is insupporting widows and divor­cees, prison victims, lonely cler­ics who may be asked to for­ever solve others' problems andnever have someone to sharetheirs. Jesus' rising may be asconcrete as patience when a lin£of traffic halts us unduly on ourway to a party. It. is as concreteas reaching out to make others'loneliness less acid or shovellingneighbors' walks when they areill; it is as near as stopping tofix a stranded person's flat tireon the highway.

Concrete ActsWe are forever being convert­

ed to concretely living our be­lief in Jesus' resurrection.

counters were put into writingby the several Evangelists, re-

"miniscences had become in someinstances a bit vague, perhapseven confused, and over the in­tervening years had been sub­jected to no little theologicalinterpretation.

There are, however, someclearly discernible constants inall of this material. One is thediscovery of the empty tomb on .the first" day of the week. Eventhis event is variously describedfrom one Gospel to the other,but they all do record it, andthat is very significant. Ofcourse, the mere fact of an emp­ty tomb proves nothing. It couldhave been explained in any num­ber of ways~ Mary Magdalenecomplained to the Lord, whomshe mistook for the" gardener,that they had taken away theLord's body and she knew notwhere to look. And the enemiesof the Apostles later accusedthem of having stolen the cor­pse. Significantly, however, theynever denied that the tomb wasindeed empty. The mystery ofthe empty tomb was eventuallycleared up for the disciples bythe appearances of the risenChrist. In the light of these ex­periences they knew at last whythe tomb was empty. It wasbecause God had given Jesus thevictory over the forces of evil

we are standing back and seeingobjectively into history. We havewatched the "Adams Chronicles"and similar programs which callus back to roots of our Ameri­can venture in freedom. This isvery helpful. It could be evenmore helpful if we truly soughtto ask the questions: What doesthis history mean now to us? Isthere any relationship betweenour nation's foundation, built onOld Testament covenant termsof a promised land, and our abil­ity today to freely grow?

The resurrection of Jesus is anhistorical event. Most believershave little trouble accepting itas a fact, although the termsof understanding it are difficult.But the acid question sooner orlater makes its way into ourlives: What difference or effectdoes that resurrection of Jesushave in our lives? Does it reallymatter in how we try to liveday-by-day? It is rather falselyacademic to see the resurrectionof Jesus in universal terms andnever to come to grips with itseffects in our lives, in our joysand in the times when we cryout, "Where are you, Lord?"

ByFATHER JOHN J. CASTELOT

Inspiringly beautiful thoughthey are, the Gospel accounts ofthe resurrection experiences ofthe disciples are among the mostdifficult passages of the NewTestament. They record differenttraditions which often defy har­monization one with the other.For instance, one traditionplaces all the appearances of therisen Lord in an around Jeru­salem, all on Easter Sunday inLuke, one on Easter day andanother on the following Sun­day, as in John 20. Another tra­dition, represented by Matthewand John 21, recalls only ap­pearances in Galilee - on amonutain in Matthew and on theshore of the lake in John. Andneither tradition' seems to beaware of the other. This is justone of the difficulties involved­just one among many.

Of course, we should not real­ly be too surprised at this. Otherevents of our Lord's career werehistorically controllable, like thepassion, of which we have afairly smooth, consecutive narra­tive, frOm arrest to trial to tor­ture to crucifixion, death, andburial.

very afraid of older persons andtheir needs. Last summer I wasplaced in a study practicum ona psychiatric ward for the agedand told to learn to listen. I feltI could not do this. I could seeso little hope in their reductionby time and by the ravages ofexperience. I feared that hearingtoo much would depress me, forloneliness and age is heavystuff. In the course of the sum­mer I felt a kind of gradual con­version to these people. As I didceramics with an older man, Iheard his life story and I beganto understand how much myfear was an illusion. He was aperson, needy and beautiful,made with human needs and hu­man hopes. I felt in a very un­romantic and no'n-dramatic waythat Jesus' resurrection was hap­pening in some small way in meand I learned to say "yes" tothat much of His victory.

I have a friend who has in­vited here aged grandfather tolive with her and her family.Surely this was not easy and itwas made even harder by his lossof his wife of over 50 years. Theold man is fragile and beautifuland full of a deep wound. Yetthis family has invited him tocome to be with them, to feeltheir presence and to be healedof the enormous loss.

to them now in a vastly. differ­ent way-through faith, throughsacraments or signs, like thebreaking of bread. This is ex­pressed quite clearly in thewords He is reported to haveaddressed to Thomas: "Becauseyou have seen me, you have be­'lieved; more blessed are theywho have not seen and yet havebelieved."

The' resurrection is of centralimportance in our living of theChristian life. As Paul tells us:"Christ died for our sins androse for our justification." Again,in 1 Cor 15 he reminds us quitebluntly: "If Christ has not beenraised, our preaching is void ofcontent and your faith is emptytoo. If Christ was not raised,your faith is worthless. You arestill in your sins, and those who,have died in Christ are the dead­est of the dead." Everything ­our present Christian life, ourhope for eternity - everythinghinges on this one reality: Christwas victorious over sin and theFather raised Him for the dead,giving Him the ultimate victory.And what the Father did for Hisson is a pledge of what He willdo for us who are one with Hisson, the firstborn of many bro­thers and sisters. Indeed, the au­thor of the letter to the Ephes­ians goes so far as to make thisstartling statement: "God is richin mercy; because of his greatlove for us he brought us lifewith Christ when we. were deadin sin. By this favor you weresaved. Both with and in Christhe raised us up and gave us aplace in the heavens" (Eph 2:4-6)

and had raised Him from thedead.

Beyond HistoryThe narrative of the empty

tomb eventually came to serveas a link between the accountsof Jesus' mortal life and that ofHis appearances. The former hadended with His burial in thetomb; the latter had begun withHis resurrection from that sametomb. It is rather interesting tonote that the actual resurrectionis not pinpointed to any precisemoment in time. The discoveryof the empty tomb is uniformlydated to the first day of theweek, but the resurrection itselfcould have occurred any timebetween the burial and the his­torically controllable events ofSunday morning. I say 'histori­cally controllable' because theactual resurrection was and isnot. It was a real event whichtook place within the frameworkof time, but of its nature it tran­scended ordinary history. TheGospels make no attempt to des­cribe the resurrection - forthe simple reason that it was in­describable. It was no simplereturn to life, as in the case ofLazarus, who came back to takeup where he had left off andeventually to die. The resurrec­tion of Christ was a uniquetransformation, involvin~ thepassage from a mortal existenceto a realm of being and activitytranscending all created categor­ies, such as time and space. Andso perhaps we should speak ofit All a transhistorical and meta­historical event, somethingwhich really did occur at a pointin time, but something unobserv­able, beyond human witness. in­describable in human language,beyond history in the acceptedsense of that term.

Accordingly, there is an ele­ment of mystery in the appear­ances of the risen Lord. He ap­pears suddenly and just as sud­denly vanishes. Locked doors areno ,obstacle to Him. He is atfirst not recognized even by Hismost intimate friends. MaryMagdalene thought He was thegardener until He spoke hername; the Apostles in the upperroom thought they were seeinga ghost; the two disciples on theroad to Emmaus hadn't theslightest idea who the strangerwas who walked and talked with

them until He broke bread at' ..-------------------------.supper in the inn. All of this ismeant to communicate an im­portant truth, the fact that thiswas indeed the Jesus they hadknown, but that He was present

WELCOME BACK

Life

AND

Welcome back, your dreams .were your ticket outWelcome back, to that same old place

That you laughed about.Well the names have all changed

Since you hung around,But those dreams have remained

And they've turned around.Who'd have thought they'd lead you

Back here where we need you.Yeah, we tease him a lot

Because we've got him on the spot.Welcome back.

Welcome back, we always could spot a friend.Welcome back, and I smile when I think

How it must have been.And I know what a scene you were learning in,

Was there something that made you come back again?What could ever lead you,

Back here where we need you?We tease him a lot,

'Because we've got him on the ·spot.Welcome back.

Written and sung by John Sebastian(c) John Sebastian Music, BMI

What song was playing the night you first met him or her?Why does one particular piece of music always make youfeel sad? Who do you think of when you hear an old favorite?

The answers to those questions lets us know that musiccan often call to mind past experiences and people. Music canhelp us feel again what we felt then. That idea led many TVexecutives to capitalize on their TV theme songs by introduc-ing them into the pop music market. .

There are several things about "Welcome Back" thatmake it more interesting than some other TV theme songs.For instance, the TV series and the song explain each other,and what the song describes is basically true. The TV programis about a man named Kotter who grew up in the slums ofBrooklyn and longed to break away. His "dreams were theticket out," Once out, he found a good life in another worldbut thought of those kids in "that same old place that helaughed about," The freedom he had come to know led him"back to that same old place," to teach kids how to findthemselves and discover their own freedom.

The TV story-line is built upon the real life experience ofthe actor-comedian, Gabriel Kaplan, who plays Kotter. Kaplangrew up in that environment and broke away to find himselfas a comedian. He also found that his greatest comedy mater­ial came from his struggles as a slum kid and that whichled him to the idea for 'Welcome Back, Kotter,"

There are lots of things to be learned from this. For onething, our own experiences can sometimes give us our greatesttool for understanding the plight of others and make it easyto "spot a -friend." We also learn that our struggle to freedomis not just something that happens for our own good, butsomething that should "lead you, back here where we needyou." In other words, any freedom we have acquired shouldlrive us to share it by helping others find their freedom.

When we are willing to do this we are "welcome,"

The response from parents hasbeen overwhelming. They, thewriters, without being asked,sald, "If you can use these let­ters you are free to do so." Asampling follows:

"Focus on youth" focused onmy heart this week and br~ke

Having been blessed with adear wife, who as mother of ourfive children, has made ourhome a lQ.ving, warm place tobe, I feel an even greater needto respond. When our familywas younger we were alwayscomforted to see them soundasleep. As years have passedand they have grown into fineyoung men and women we arealways interested in where theyare, with whom, and alwayswelcome their friends, who wealso consider our friends.

Hits RegulationsOn Missioners

WASHINGTON (NC)-A U.S.Catholic Conference (USCC) of­ficial has criticized new ,CIAregulations which would retainthe agency's right to seek infor­mation from missionaries andother church personnel whohave returned to the UnitedStates from abroad.

The regulations are "not ac­ceptable" said the USCC offi­cial, Father Bryan Hehir, asso­ciate secretary for internaaionaljustice and peace., "The function of mission or­ganizations and the institutionalChurch should be precisely toinstruct people not to cooper­ate" with the CIA, he said.

Mission leaders have beencritical of the CIA for involve­ment with missionaries because,they say, such involvement cre­ates a conflict with the religiouspurpose of the missionary and hisahility to identify with the peo­ple of the local culture he isserving.

A statement issued last No­vember by the mission commit­tee of the Leadership Confer­ence of Women Religious andthe Conference of Major Supe­riors of Men, two organizationsof heads of religious orders, re­pudiated "U. S. governmentalinvolvement with overseas mis-­sionaries for intelligence pur­poses, be that involvement overtor covert, be it in the hostcountry or in debriefing of fur:loughed missionaries in theUnited States."

they are on. Too many of theseparents drink as a result of cat­ering to a social climate, thusoften neglecting and thereforecausing an erosion of thei'r fam­ily responsibility. Often, too,family pressures are too greatand drinking becomes a crutchthey fear to let go.

Could Have Been HersI am the mother of teenagers

and read "Focus on youth" everyweek. This week's page hit meright where it hurt. I was a teen­ager who could have written anyof those comments and more.

To those teenagers who feelisolated in their own prison ofloneliness, I'd like to say thatwhen adults tell them something,sometimes it has to be takenwith a bag of salt.

Those of you who are suffer­ing now will become the adultsand patterns for another genera­tion not yet born. You will havelearned a valuable lesson. Yourjob is to get beyond the badthings you see in adults and be­come better ones yourselves.You can make it because youwill know that you are in thecompany of many more just likeyou, all trying hard, all caughtup in their own private loneli­ness. There ARE people whocare. Keep reaching out, as they,too, are reaching out, and maybeyour hands will touch and you'llmake contact, and it will bebeautiful.

There's no magic formula tomake parents see you as people,to let go gracefully, or expresslove positively. You have to findin them what you can and trustin God and yourself for the rest.Trust your own goodness andnever let go of it.

I thank you for letting mespout off on something that Ifeel pretty deeply about.
