Pope John ActsTo Speed WorkOf Co~~cil

VATICAN CITY (NC)His Holiness Pope JohnXXIII has announced thatthe first session of' theEcumenical Council will endDec. 8' with a solemn ceremonyin St. Peter's basilica.

The Pope's announcement wasread on Tuesday at the close ofthe 13th general meeting of theCouncil. During the meetingthe discussion of the second ofeight chapters of proposals onthe liturgy was concluded by astanding vote of the 2,211 Coun­cil Fathers present. The meetingthen took up chapter three ofthe liturgy proposals dealingwith the sacraments and sacra­mentaIs.

Archbishop Per i c 1e FeUd,Council general secretary, in aneffort to spe~d discussions, in­structed Council Fathers to pre_sent along with requests tospeak a summary of whlllt they

, intend to say. This is seen asa way to give the general sec­re~ariat an opportunity of ad­vising speakers that what theywant to say is being covered byanother speaker.

Presidential PowersArchbishop Felici also an­

nounced that Pope John hasgiven the presidency of theCouncil the right to proposetermination' of discussion of 'aspecific point if it judges thatthe matter being discussed hasbeen dealt with sufficiently.

The Pope's instructions re­quire that the Council's presi­dent of the day put the proposalto end discussions to a vote ofthe Fathers, asking those infavor to stand and those opposedto remain seated.

Following this announcement,Cardinal Tappouni, president atthe 13th meeting, proposed toend discussion of the secondchapter of the liturgical pro­posals. The vote was affirma­tive.

Msgr. CaBey quoted an edi­toriar in the New World, news­paper 'of the Archdiocese ofChicago, which pointed out tha~

the American Government hastraditionally looked upon thebirth control issue as a religiousmatter. The editorial pointed outthat former President Eisen­hower had not initiated an,.foreign policy which would in­elude birth control for this rea­son.

In regard to the- claim thatbirth control services would beprovided only for those whovoluntarily asked for them,Msgr. Casey said: "The pro­gram would not work, would notachieve its objective unless theservices ar suggested, en­couraged and promoted by thestate."

"Moreover," he continued, "82per cent of the prospective re­cipients concerned are eitherunmarried or not living withtheir legal spouse, and so youwould de facto have the statewith public tax funds furnishingcontraceptives to u n mar r i e dwomen and thereby abetting,encouraging, facilitating, spon­soring and even subsidizingfornicatIOn and adultery."

peter Julian Eymard, foun­der of the Fathers of theBlessed Sacrament, has beenChlnounced for Sunday, Dec. 9.Known as the "Apostle of theEucharist," the future saint wasborn in France in 1811, and wasordained in 1834.

His early career as a curate inlVIonteynard is reminiscent ofiba t of the Cure of Ars. Hisparish had been neglected sincethe, days of the French Revo­lution, but within two years he!had prevailed on all its mem­bers to return to the saera­'ments. He then entered theMarist community.

The' convening of the Second Vatican Council is pre­sumably the reason for the appearance just now of anumber of books about the Holy See, the Vatican, andRome. With the attention of the world focussed there,interest in the headquartersof the ·Church Universal isgeneral and acute. Peoplewho know something of thesubject are coming forward tosatisfy this interest with in­formation andobserva­tion which theyhave . accumu­lated over theyears.We wouldbegin, however,with one of asomewhat dif-·ferent type.

It is Vaticanimpressions,ed­ited by FatherFrancis J.Sweeney, S.J. (Sheed and Ward.$5.95). The editor tells us "Ihave attempted to assemble herea ·bookful of descriptive readingon the Popes, something on theirpersonalities and public occa­sions, but more on the climateof· custom and folkway in whichthe papal monarchy has flour­ished since the first century."H~ wants to convey "the Ro­manitas of the Church of Christ."

'Go to Rome!'

"Ecco Roma" is the title of thefirst section. Early in it there isan excerpt from a letter writtenby Lord Acton to Mrs. Hum­phrey Ward. "Go to Rome!Never mind the journeys. Go!You will have three days there,you say? ... If you had only anafternoon in Rome it would beworth while. But three days ...Life is not the same afterward."

This puts very weH the mar­velous effect of_ even a sip ofRome. Others represented jnthis anthology expatiate on vari­ous features of the city.

But it is St. Peter's which getsthe most attention. F. MarionCrawford's description of thebasilica, and its 'mpact on theviewer, is as graphic and affect­ing as the day it was written.Here is prose which has notstaled with the passing decades.

Thus, in suggesting the im­pression when one steps throughthe doorway, Crawford wrote,"A hushed, half rhythmic sound,

.as of a world breathing in itssleep, makes the silence alive.The light is not dim or ineffec­tual, but very soft and high, andit is as rich as floating gold dustin the far distance, and in theapse , an eighth of a mile fromthe door. There is a blue aridhazy atmospheric distance, aspainters call it, up in the lan­tern of the cupola, a twelfth of amile above the pavemen~."

Many otbers of the famedauthors upon whom FatherSweeney draws have somethingto say· of this most celebratedand visited of churches.

Henry James, for example,maintained that the beauty ofthe buQding is a "general beau­ty" and that the specific details,when one comes to study themindividually, "are often poor andsometim·es ridiculous."

Twain's Impressions

Mark Twain, as one mighthave expected, didn't thinkmuch of the place; Or was hemerely . trying to be funnyThus, the stupendous Berninibaldachin over the papal altarhe saw as "a great bronze pyra­midal frame-work like thatwhich upholds a mosquito bar.It only looked like a consider­ably magnified bedstead~noth­ing more."

This humble, totally humanapproach of the Holy Father hasdone more to reduce the extentof anti-clericalisrr in Italy thanany other effort undertaken withthis result in mind. And, best ofall, this is not a deliberatepolicy. It is simply 'Pope John'spersonality and nature.

before the solemn opening of theCouncil, the Pope addressedmore than 100,000 persons whohad marched in a torchlight pro­cession.

It had been cloudy and rainy,but the skies had cleared shortlybefore the procession began. Inhis address to the people, thePope alluded to this.

"Tomorrow," he said, "we areopening a great Council with allof the bishops of the world gath_ered here. And you see," hecontinued, pointing to the brightord above the great dove of thebasilica, "even the Moon hascome out to see this beautiful

is most concerned with and feelsso strongly a'bout."

This overriding concern of theHoly Father that he be a "goodshepherd" to his people hasmade him, in only four years,one of the most deeply lovedPopes in Italy in the last cen­tury. His predecessor, Pope Piusxn, was a saintly man, a mag­nificent theologian, philosopherand moralist. There is no doubtof his goodriess and kindness, buthe did not have the "commontouch" that Pope John daily dis­plays.

Continued fIrom Page Oneexamine in an atmosphere ofalmost complete freedom.

The only direct action theHoly Father has taken since thesolemn opening of the Councillast month has been the appoint­ment of nine members of eachof the 10 commissions of theCouncil and· the smoothing overof differences, always in themost paternal way.

But even if the Holy Fatheris .not presevt physically at thedaily m~etings of the Council,be is there in spirit. No'ne of,approximately 17 Americanbishops contacted during theCouncil faUed to mention thislInseen, but ce~inly fullysensed, "presence" of the Pope.And very few of them have nothad stories to tell to illustratethe fatherly but dedicated atti­tude of the Holy Father.

One bishop mentioned that hehad talked to one of the SwissGuards ,at one of the earlier

I eongregations of the Council.The guard told the Prelate thathe had been on duty in the Pon_,tiff's gardens one afternoon afew days before the Councilopened. '

"His Holiness was walking upand down near the guarc;l, show­ing considerable agitation andworry," the bisJ,op recalled."'The guard told me that the HoyFather came up to him, at last,and said:

"'You know, if I can only getf;he Council opened and started

,0n its way, I'll be content toleave its closing to my succes­sor,""

On the day of the solemn open_ing of the Council, the Holy]Father displayed the same symp­~ms of concern. His face wasQ bit drawn, his movements slowand, at times, uncertain. But hisdemeanor was completely al­tered when, at long last, theczeremony was over. He virtuallyskipped down from his throneon the Confessional Altar andmade his way lightly am: joy­<Dusly up ~he main aisle to the\point where the sedia gestatoria(portable throne) awaited him.His face was one big, angelicDmile and his eyes were shinywith tears and happiness.

As many bishops pointed out,l:t was as if a heavy burden had'been lifted from his shoulders.His years of anticipation, anx­tety and long and tedious plan­ning were over; his Council wastinder way at last.

When he received the repre­sentatives of the world's news­l1lapers, magazines, radio andtelevision stations, he was re­markably alert and relaxed, par_ticularly for a man of his ageQnd the heavy burdens he car­Il'ies. He had the appearance ofal man twenty years his junior.

The Sistine chapel was rockedby ever-increasing waves of ap­plause and cries of ''ll Papa,"and he received the tribute withwarm appreciation, displaying.as he ,always does, his tremen­dous and deeply sincere love foraU men, regardless of -their sta­tion in life. The many Protestantnewsmen at the audience wereas deeply moved as their Cath­olic brethren.

Another bishop described hisfirst meeting ,with the HolyFather. He had expected, he re­late,d, to find the Pope waitingfor him at his large desk at thefar end of the library the Pon­tiffs use.

"Instead, as I walked up thatlong hall to the library," thebishop related, "I noticed abeaming fsee with the distinc­tive white zuchetto hoveringover it, peering around the cor­ner of the doorway.

"Sure enough, it was the Pope.He greeted me at the door, tookme around his office, even show­ing me the buzzer with which hesummons his secretary. Then he~ad me sit down beside him andwe talked about the problemsiIUld developments in my diocese.

• WEDNESDAY - St. Josaphat,Bishop, Martyr. "Every highpriest ... is appointed for men inthe things pertaining to God,"the Church teaches' in today-'sFirst Reading. Every bishop is aservant, exists only because thehuman community needs thisoffice. He is an apostle of com­munity and unity, for he is exofficio sign and sacrament ofoneness. Josaphat was a martyrfor the sake of unity and com-'munion among the churches of .,our Lord and Saviour. So theGospel enjoins the bishop toheal divisions.

MONDAY-St. Martin, Pope,Martyr. The liturgy's conscious­ness that the Church i!l not onlya vast international society butis present, is real and realized,whenever the local Christiancommunity gathers for commonprayer (especially the Eucharist)-this corrects our westerntendency to emphasize legal andorganizational factors.

Celebrating the Mass of a popeduring an· ecumenical councilreminds us forcibly of the samething. For the bishops are notmere instruments of the chiefshepherd. ·They. are shepherdsin their own right. And 'dioceseSare not mere units in a' largerframework but Churches in theirown right, in a' precious com­munion with the bishop and theChurch of Rome.

TUESDAy-st. Diclaeus. Con­fessor. Both First Reading andGospel in today's Mass empha­size the other-worldly nature ofthe gifts we have· receivedthrough Jesus Christ our Lord.His treasure must be of thiskind, else His 'own blessingswould deceive us, would deflectour vision from the goal of judg­ment and eternity. The judg­mentof God is not in thisworld's sufferings. it is tran­scendent. It is that which doesnot grow old, unfailing treasure.Because it is that, it can claimour hearts.

For His gifts call for our re­sponse, our deed, our love, andsin is our failure to respond. Itis from these depths of failurethat we pray for cleansing andfor strength in the Secret andPostcommunion prayers.

TODAY-Mass as on Sunday•.Sometimes we may become im­patient with our public worship,with its formality, its use ofsigns (words, music, vesture,gestures, colors, etc.), its stal'kseverity of expression. Obvious­ly these characteristics of liturgycan be abused, as they are whenthey cease to communicate witha living and contemporary peo­ple.

But, communication assured,they are necessary characteris­tics of Christian worship, pre­venting as they do any reductionof the Gospel to the stature of apurely human ideal and any re­duction of the Saviour to ahuman hero.

TOMORROW - Dedication ofthe Archbasilica of our Saviour.TodaY-'s celebration of the dedi­cationof the cathedral church ofRome draws the hearts andminds of the Christian commun_ity into 'i;m especially consciousand vital communion with theFathers 'of the Ecumenical Coun-cil. . ,

. The texts of 'the Mass teach usabout the Church as the placewhere ,the divine and humanmeet, as both this-worldly andother-worldly. We pray that theHoly Spirit will guide theFathers of the Council to makeboth aspects fully' and dramat­ically' evident to our world.

SATURDAY - St. AndrewAvellirio, Confessor. The Councilis a sign of the Church's obedi­ence to Jesus' injunction in theGo'spel. In the Council we havevisible evidence of the girdingof her loins and the burning ofher lamps, of a Church vigilant

.and watching and expecting. Allof us then must idtlntify· our­selves with the Bishops' expect­ancy. and receptiveness, to theSpirit, for we are the Church.

TWENTY-SECOND SUNDAYAFTER PENTECOST. ..:T h e"character" of our Baptism-Con­'firmation, the image of Christwe bear, is the foundation of ourtrust as we work and growtoward judgment and toward·fulfillment.. The First Readingteaches confidence that the sameJesus who has "begun a goodwork" in us will "bring it toperfection."

The Gospel teaches us thatGod and human political societyare not in a kind of competition,each with a claim to one partof a single sphere (man's life),but that as Bubel' has said Godowns man's total being (in a

,sphere of wholeness) and politi­cal authority can claim only apart of his being (in anothersphere, that of division of func­tion). Despite all of this assur­ance of salvation in ChristJesus, we begin our community

Study Emotions,

,6 .' THE ANCH9R-:-:-Diocese of Fall River-::Thurs., Nov.8~ :19.~2

One of the hardest things in the world to combat· is'·l~thargy. It is a difficult thing toco,nvince men and womenof sincerity' that there is a situa:tion that mQst be. cor­rected, that can 'be corrected, that looks to the~. forcor­rective steps. All too many people do not see evil,' 6r.a~e

· unwilling' to look upon it; or refuse to' pay the personalprice. that correcting it .would, demand. of 't~em, ·or. would

· rather let someOne else take the initiat~ve. . .. ',

'The Church in Chile h~ been trying' for a lo~g, timeto help soive the criti~a~. political· and economic. problems

, of the country and to· better the lot of' the common man.It is a classic example of the Church's seeing. clearly ,w~atis wrong and trying, against almostoverwhelmjilg .diffi­culties and in the face 'of monumental' lethargy, to .ge.t

'something done. oJ' •

One-third of that country's people lack decent'homes;the few have much and the many have little,; gross soci:alinequalities exist. Lip service ·only is, given to Christianityby those who could and should do something to bring about

·a change. . '. And why have the Bishops of qhile pointed out in de­

tail the areas that a vigorous Christian approach couldremedy? Because, in the phrase used by Cardinal ~anningto BeBoc, "all human conflict is ultimately theological"And the Church, the Mystical Body of Christ, must showthe compassion of Christ to th~ poor and the underprivi­leged, uplifting the downtrodden, helping them save theirsouls through their bodies by bettering the conditions illwhich they work and live.

The vigorous Cardinal Silva Enrique, is heading theChurch's drive to bring about drastic social reforms., This'is one more instance of the Church's leaders seeing eviland trying to awaken men to conditions, around them. Butthe leaders depend upon the good will of the laity, the coop­eration of men who can bring about the changes needed.The Bishops of Chile and every country need men 'willing tobe Christian, to act like Christ. Too many Christians areChristian only in the name and not in the act.

To be a Christian is to be Christ--and how many arewilling to even try that1

"All Human Conflict ..."

In an address to the Pennsylvania Catholic EducationalAssociation, Very Reverend Vernon ,F. Gallagher of theHoly Ghost Fathers started that "The most prevalent and,

, in some respects, the most virulent disease of the Twentieth"Century is emotional infantilism. We can renew, the faceof the poor old world only by growing up ourselves and

,by helping others grow up." '

The late Thomas E. Murray, industrialist, inventor andformer chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission~ saidm'uch the same things years ago when, at' the begin~ingof the rapid development of atomic potential, he remindedmen that "our only fear-and' OUI,' great respons~bility­

is 'not what we do with things but what'we do with our-'selves"-' .' .' ,. .' "

It matters little that men'can~contrQI.,~h~ 'world out­side of themselves if they fail to control the, world withinthemselves-the 'world of the emotions. For men may beconvinced by intellectual argument but they are movedto action by the emotions and the appeal to the will.

The technologicai advances of the age have given menease in life, but these have not ,advanced them one bittoward a deeper control of their emotions. The advantagesof modern civilization do not necessarily imply strongercharacter and more commendable action. .

. Father Gallagher suggested that schools and colleges. make extensive investigations of human emotions. Each·person would do well to look into himself-his own degree.of self-control and discipline, his own emotional health.There is no question of destroying the emotions or turnIngmen into unfeeling beings. But there must be. balance,neither over-reacting nor under-reacting nor 'letting.' ·theemotions take over ~ontrol of one's life.

Man has been made to the image of His Mak~r,. madeto be a' chi\d of God. ~is complex self must be orderedtoward that end~

JERSEY' CITY (NC)­The .lawyers 'who argued theNew' . York 'State publicschool prayer case beforethe U.S. Supreme Court reen·

. acted their roles here before thestudent body of St. Peter's Col.lege. '

Chief Justice John Murtagh,administrative judge or theCriminal Courts Division of theCity of New York, acted aschairman of the "rehearing,"held as part of a lecture series.After the argument, Murtagh

,. expressed the· view that theSupreme Court decision banningrecitation of the New YorkBoard of Regents' prayer wasincorrect. .

William J. Butler, attorneyfor the plaintiffs in Vitale vs.Engle, was opposed by BertramB. Daiker, who represented theNew York State Board of Re­gents.

'Simple Issue'Butler said: "It is a simple

issue. The question is whetheror not the State of New Yorkcould compose a prayer andmake the recitation of it com­pulsory in the public schools."

Three New York courts hadruled agflinst Butler before thecase reached the Supreme Court.

Butler said the First Amend­ment "does prohibit using pub­lic schools to teach religion • • •We want the right to decidefor ourselves how we shall pray.We do not want to abrogate thatright" to any board of regents."

Daiker, in answer, said re­citing the regents' prayer wasnot establishing a religion. "Theprayer was acceptable to allreligions and praying. in publieschools is a tradition in ourcountry," he said.

The terrace taken care' of, theinnovation seemed to lose itsnovelty and our grass' got abarbering, same as everybodyelse's. Along about that timecame the "dogwood deal," an at_tempt to prove that a dogwoodtree need not grow crooked, atrait that unhorticultural mindedI had always believed inherentin the species. If planted in the .sun, it would be bound to growstraight. Only place where thisdesideratum could be achievedwas right smack in the middleQf the back yard. It interferedwith the clothes lines, but thedogwood grew straight!

Fig Tree ChallengeThen there is the fig tree, al­

most .as monopolizing of thefront yard as the dogwood is ofthe back.

When it came, ordered from acatalogue, it was a tender litUewisp of a branch, with no assur­ance that it would grow. andflourish in a climate as far northas ours.

That was the challenge! Re­'lIlc1llbering a fig tree that hadbeen in his' boyhood yard. insouthern Virginia, the Head ofthe HOUSe was determined thatif .tender loving care could pre­serve life, T.L.C. would be ad­ministered in massive doses.

It 'was. Like a premature babyin an incubator,like a tiny pup­py in a heated bed. that littlewisp ·was sheltered from thewind,' was mulched, fertilized,watered and watched, even cov­ered over on cold nights duringits. 'first Winter. And, like apremie . who becomes a 250pound prize fighter, like a tinypuppy' groWn into a German

'shepherd, the "wisp" has attaineda height of six feet, a diameterof five, and bears delicious fruit.

. Challenge met, Yardbird vin­dicated.

'Figs and tomatoes are . our .gardller's: chief contribution tofoodstuffs, the latter' not· ordi_nary red tomatoes but the yel-

. low cocktail· tYPe; My· own gar­dening runs more to the plebeianstring beans and radish clasS.So, too, my ideas of outdoorchores 'fall into the category ofjust plain hard work.

Snow is to be shoveled, grassto be cut, leaves to be l'aked. .The Yardbird used his imagina­tion and modern shortcuts: anelectric ID()wer, a chemical forremoving snow.

Leaves, however. had himbaffled. Disliking the job, nev­ertheless he has raked andburned them year after year~'

Until this Fall! Now he basdiscovered an automatic mulch­er. attached it to the electricmower and goes blithely up anddown the yard as' the contrivancechews up the leaves and the raincarries them into the earth.

"Anybody can cut grass," Ili'emember him saying thatSummer, "and if letting it growwill be an innovation, I'm all fortnnovating."

Attitude Toward.Liturgy Change'Wide Open'

VATICAN CITY (NC)An Am e ric a n archbishopsays the Ecumenical Coun­cils attitude toward liturgi.cal reform is "wide open.""Archbishop Paul J. Hallinan'

of Atlanta, an elected member'of the Council's commission onthe sacred liturgy, told English";',speaking reporters, covering the:

,Council that "there have been"very few extremists in the de-,bate. Everyone of the'speakers'has conceded the merits of theother side." ,

He denied reports in Europeannewspapers that the U. S. bishops:'are not interested "in the liturgy. '

, : Neither are the American prel- .ates adopting a unified position'

" in the dabate on the liturgy, he:added. '

Asked how the 'Council Fath- .ers' as a whole seem to feelabout proposed changes'in theliturgy,.-he replied: "The words'wide open' would describe itbest."

He said he had been amused,to hear bishops speaking in ele- :gant Ciceronian Latin to defend'the use of the vernacular in the .liturgy. He' also reported thatthe'lO-minute limit on speeches,which Council regulations ask,

, the fathers to observe if possible,, was largely ignored.

But, he remarked with a smile,,"a certain restraint is imposed

" ,on speakers by the expressions,on everybody else's face."

He continued:"Occasionally, a Council Father,

whQ is scheduled to speak willget up and say: "lam dicta sunt ..meaning t~at what he had to s;yhas already been said. There isthen a' feeling of applause in theCouncil even if nobody actuallyapplauds."

VATICAN CITY (NC)-Vati­can engineers in charge of taperecording council proceedingsare said to have been selected onthe strength of their knowing aslittle Latin as possible.

"Deaf-mutes would be best forthis job," quipped one Vaticanofficial.

The 'reason is that the oper­ators are not supposed to eaves­drop on the debates.

Cu'rbs on SpeechesVATICAN CITY (NC) - A

new r~ling has been adopted 'tohelp shorten debates at the Ecu_menical Council. .

According to the new regula­tion, spokesmen will be' assignedto present the views of groupsof Council Fathers holding iden- 'tical' or similar opinions on mat­ters under discUSslOn.

Council FathersHave A Busy,Schedule

ROME (NC) - Bishopsfrom the United States andfrom other countries, takingpart in the Second VaticanEcumenical Council, follow afull schedule. And, it is getting­fuller.

With the Council sessions helddaily from 9 a. m. to l, p. m., itmeans that each Council Fathermust rise early, say mass early,breakfast and depart early forSt. Peter's basilica, where themeetings of the Council beginpromptly at 9.

For the bishops who are mem­bers of the various commissionsof the Council there are otherconferences late in the afternoonand early evening. For <111 the,bishops' it means that afternoonsand evenings must be given toindividual, study and privateconsultations, discussions withvarious experts and advisors toprepare for the solid four-hourCouncil sessions. '

Profiting by the unusual ad­vantages offered by the spaciousnew ' North American College,many of the American cardinalsand bishops as well as otherEng~'ish-sp,eaking prelates aremaking it a study center.

The college, atop the Janicu­lum Hill, is very convenientlyclose to St. Peter's basilica. Itis almost literally under theshadow of St. Peter's.

More importantly, the collegehas an excellent library, wellequipped with the' referenceworks that the Councill.Fathersneed. The filing system, accom­modated to the English-speaking'students, is particularly con­venient. Not least of the advan­tages of the library is its up-to­date lighting system. A numberof the Council members haveremarked that it is much easierto read in the library of the col_lege than in almost any otherplace in Rome.

Besides the advantages of thelibrary, the college has a largeopen; court yard with an amplesheltered walk as well as an ex­Cellent auditorium. The collegeean thus accommodate large orsmall groups. The result is thatat times large, seminar-likegroups gather in the college fordiscu'ssions about matters deal­ing with the Council.

Many of the U. S. cardinals, and' bishops are alumni of theNorth American Colleg~ butlived'in the college building 10­eatl:id' on Humility Street---.:.the"Old College." The present im­posing building was completednine years ago and the "Old,'College" has been completelyrenovated, serving as a house ofgraduate studies for Americanpriests.

Cic~ro Didn't AllowFor British Accent

VATICAN CITY (NC)-Theuse of Latin as the only official

,langullge at the Vatican Councilhas its problems for the CouncilFathers.

All the fathers have a goodknowledge of Latin, but it isstill difficult to converse ,inCicero's tongue. Different pro­nunciations add to the difficultyof debating in a rarely usedtongue. The Americans are noteasily understood by the Italiansand the French have an evenharder. time getting past theBritish accent.

So far, only one CouncilFather has spoken in a modernlanguage in the debates. Mel";kite Rite Patriarch Maximos IVSaigh: of Antioch spoke inFrench and no one objected.

Not C[)l)@OTl@esSays ~rr®~@U'e

ROME (NC) - The im­portant thing in liturgicalmatters "is not to empha-

. size change, but rather toemphasize a deeper appreciationof liturgical values," an Amer­'jcan prelate said here.

"The goal of tbe liturgicalmovement in the U.S. is to I{etCatholics to rethink their wholelife of worship," Archbishop PaulJ. Hallinan of Atlanta told apress conference, The al"ch­bishop is a member of the Ecu­menical Council's Commissionon the Sacred Liturgy.

Archbishop Hallinan, whospoke on the status of the litur­gical movement in the U. S., saidthe aim of the U. S. bishops isto help their people to under­stand better "that the mass andthe sacraments are pUblic, socialand partake of the community."He said this understandingwould serve as an effective curbto what he called "the exces­sive individualism of our mod­ern society."

Asked if the use of the ver­nacular would promote this un­derstanding, the archbishop re­plied:

"I believe a wider use of thevernacular in the early Pdl"t ofthe mass will make for betterparticipation of the people andwill better prepare them for theSacrifice that follows."

He added that there is alsoroom for more use of the ver­nacular in rites connected witbthe administration of sacra­ments.

Ascertain CreedOf Non-Catholic

LONDON (NC) -.:... Cath­olics can best help arid knownon-Catholics if they take,the trouble to find. out whatthey believe and why they be­lieve it Archbishop John Heen­an of Liverpool said here.

Archbishop Heenan, chairmanof the English Hierarchy's UnityCommittee, was summing up aseries of articles in the Universe,national Catholic newspaper, inwhich leading spokesmen of themajor non-Catholic Christian'churches explained their be­liefs and attitude towards unity.

Archbishop Heenan said in theweekly: .

"There can be no doubt thatsome Catholics regard the wholequestion of Christian unity withthe utmost reserve. They fea~

that other and more simpleCatholics may be misled by allthis talk of coming closer to­gether. Lacking a deep an<~

sound knowledge of the Faiththey may be tempted to imaginethat differences of religious'conviction no longer matter.

"This coming together ofChristians of every kind is inthe first place an exercise ofcharity. It is also the result ofimproved education.

"The stage we have nowreached on the road to Chris­tian unity is much more like ahalfway house than the end of8 journey. We have re.ached astage where ~e can discuss ourdifferences in charity and peace.'The importance of' this' phaseis that we are able both tospread the knowledge of Catho­lic truth and to correct the falsenotions we ourselves may haveabout the bel,iefs of non-Catho-lics •••N

At the fart~est'remove,from acongress of political figUres, notto. speak of dummies for Sovietwiridow-dressmg, it' remains anenormous body.

The magnitude of the tasksbefore it demand greatnl;lss.

How exasperating it could be,for example, for' a Bishop fromTierra del Fuego to formulate,in Latin, the information thathis pen has run out of ink or thathe has broken the lead of hispencil. Does the verb expressingneed take the dative, the accusa­tive, or the ablative?

No Bishop wants to make afool of himself. publicly, espe- .cially before a seminarian, andhours could be wasted 'in fruit­less searching of the failing.memory. But as things are, all

'he has to do is address the re­quest in sparkling Tierra delFuegan to the nearest brightyouth, and all is understood.

Difference in DressThe Uniate Orientals present

at the Council provide the great.;·est interest, so far as ceremonial.dress is co.ncerned. Whereas the'hierarchy of the West wears thesame garb, save for minute' dif­ferences of color or the amountof lace onthe rochet, the Orien,;,tals seem to encourage a bewild.ering variety~

Even 'those of the Same na­tional or ritual. group 'and of

.identical rank, display consider'­able differences, which, 'as oneless wise, one is tempted to putdown' to the score of individualpreference.

True enough, they have beenheard to criticize us for over­conformity,. though it woUld bea horrendous prospect. if· everyBishop in the Church were al- .lowed to let fancy dictate in thisdelicate' field.

, Value of EnglishIt is entirely possible that·

English is the tongue most com­monly understood by the Bishops .attending the Council. This doesnot m,ean that English is thenative language ..of Ii, mapority,but that by this time it is wellOD hs way' to SUPPlanting French..as the lingua franca of the world.

Most missioriaryBishops havefound it a practical necessity toacquire some facility in it, andit is instructive to hear, walkingin a casual group, the, frequencyand fluency with which Englishis spoken by men of the mostdiverse national and racialbackgrounds.

Here again a sharp differencebetween the two C ou n c i I semerges: in 1870 French held thefield beyond dispute, and Eng.lish, in the Universal Church,was the tongue of a small minor­ity.

As theg~eat Council settles down to the orderly routineof its sessions, it is timely and just to pay tribute to theextraordinary foresight. which went into the preparation .of its physical mechanics; so to speak. Few assemblies' sovast and so heterogeneous,.not meeting regularly ascongress or parliament, canhave been provided withfacilities as adequate. It is notonly that each Bishop has hisseat, reasona­bly comfortableeve n for themore protractedceremonies andsessions, butthat the publicaddress systemoperating in St.Peter's is asfine as the writ­er has everheard. If his earwere attuned to

.. capture the subtle. nuances ofthe Latinity which flows overthe heads of the Fathers hewould have a field-day whichmight be the envy of Professor"EnI'Y 'Iggins.· The fault is not.-in', the· P..A.system, but in, thegrossness of the auricular.

the First Vatican Council is in- .evitabie. It was much more hap­h~zardlY arranged, we are told- .and the telling is confirmed. by.the' prints and photos-in therigM transept, and the acousticsmust have been deplorable.

Practically' all the accounts re.- .peat the complaint that Ulespeakers could not be heard or .und~rstood, though it was .a dayof mighty voices inured to vastempty spaces.

sion built on the sad experienceof trying to catch the substanceof innumerable sermons in in­numerable fanes. In contrast,.many even of the older Europeanchurches, including the GothicCathedrals of the North, havehad installed excellent systems,which, . like the· one working in'St. Peter's,. transmit the voiceas perleetlyas might be wished.Whether European congregationsare better listeners as a resultthe writer deponeth not.

Catha'ics to UseTax-Paid BusesIn Ma9"y~and

UPPER MARLB ORO(NC) - The Prince GeorgesCounty School Board hasagreed to permit 21 Catholicschool pupils to ride tax-paidschool buses from which theywere removed earlier.

Unable to reach a decision inpublic session, the board afterretiring to a closed meeting, anG

nounced the children will beaccommodated by changing somapick-up points.

The Maryland decision appar_ently settled a dispute which re­sulted in the halting of a bus iemid-October by a father of threeCatholic school pupils who puthis children aboard the vehicle.

The bus driver refused to car­ry the youngsters, saying helacked authority to do so. Hcemptiea the bus of its passen­gers-13 in all-and drove thovehicle off to its parking lot.

'Excess Baggage'

The children are pupils of SlMary's grade school in UpperMarlboro. Last year they rodeon tax-paid buses from outlyingregions to a public grade schooRnear their own. But in October,the public school was closed andthe grade school bus route dis­continued.

Parents of the Catholic schoolchildren affected by the changeasked permission to put theiryoungsters on a bus headingfor a public high school in Up­per Marlboro. When their re­quest was unanswered, a father,acting for the parents' group,put his children aboard the bus.

At the board meeting, Jerrold'W. Powers, attorney for Cathoiieparents, said the St. Mary'upupils couid not be relegated tothe status of "excess baoggage."

Temporary Impasse

Eugene R. O'Brien, boanllmember, then presenteda. me­Uon that the bus service bogranted. When it failed for lack,of a seconding motion, he intro..·duced another motion to denythe bus rides. This too failed f62'lack of a second.

At this impasse, Paul IifLNussbaum, board attorney, reo.quested the closed session.

County buses already trans­port, between 200 and 400 Cath~

olic school pupils daily whoride along established routes tothe public school nearest theilrown school.

By Clement J'. Dowling

"I think the youngsters of today are more self­centered and entertainment-happy than ever before. Theyreally are getting soft and. more .sE!lfisli with their timeand energy". An adult discussion of Catholic Youth Week,its aims and accomplish­ments, prompted the abovestatement from one whoseemingly knows AmericanYouth from first-hand analysisand contact. Opposing view­points brought the rejoinder"Prove it to me!"

With puzzled feelings thisobserver set out to find whatCatholic teen-agers in Our 12diocesan high schools do withtheir spare time. The resultsindicate that both sets of adultsare correct, but that the skepticsare more wrong than right.

Besides voluntarily and en­joyably helping parents, friends,and relatives with householdand baby-sitting chores, in­vestigation finds many young­sters engaged in helpful aid tonumerous people, some of whomthey aid directly, others throughnational and inter-national or­ganizations.

Old .folks are constantly re­membered by young folks. Thegirls of Jesus-Mary Academyand Sacred Hearts Academy inFall River are aware of the tre­mondous good to be accom..;plished -at the CathoHc MemorialHome.

needs of the universal Church.We have moved so far in thefour years since the Council .hasbeen convoked that the Churchcan never be the same again." -

A telling example of their"sympathetic concern for oneanother's challenges" is the fre­quent contact between smallgroups of bishops from differentnations, and the regular invita­tions to the scholarly experts todiscuss current problems. Litur­gical experts such as : dthersJungmann, Diekmann, and Mc­Manus are keeping a busy sched­ule these days.

The work of the Council is,of course, wrapped in officialsecrecy, and. one can only guessat the real progress being made.Time will give the answer. Andfrom all indications, it is ananswer worth waiting for.

quip, "it will be a real demon­stration of divine intervention."Somehow, they seem to be crash­ing the Traffic Wall with re­markable swiftness.

Not SpcctacuBaJi'Their speed through the Coun_

cil agenda, however, is not quiteso spectacular. To date theCouncil Fathers have coveredonly about 3% of the totalagenda, and even this small sec­tion has yet to be voted on,sent to the Committee for decree­drafting, and .finally approved.I.f the Council continues at itspresent pace, there is no tellinghow long it will last.

There is the distinct possibil­ity, of course, that not all thesubjects proposed by the Pre­paratory Commissions will bediscussed during the SecondVatican Council. The opinion isexpressed that there will simplynot be enough time to treat allthe questions advanced in theschema. A more weighty ob­jection comes from the theolo­gians, many of whom hold thatthere bas not been enough re­search and development to someof the topics on the agenda, andthat it would be better to passover these for the present,thereby giving them a chaneeto fully evolve.

Distinct BlessingBut if some observers are get­

ting restless with the Council'sslow progress, others are view­ing it" as a distinct blessing. Thislatter group reasons thus: eachbishop has the right to speak forten minutes on any issue beforethe Council;' the exercise of thisright is at present leading to agreat repetition of ideas; but thehidden advantage is that thebishops are gradually becomingaware of how they stand as indi­viduals and as nations on theircommitment to the up-dating ofthe Church that Pope John hascalled for. Once the air has beencleared (and the liturgy is anadmira'ble agent for doing this),perhaps the future discussions

. can be streamlined and the workpushed forward at a faster pace.

It comes as no surprise toCatholics that there are manypoints of view as to how thismodernization of the Churchshould be achieved. The Councilis, after all, ecumenical; it repre_cents the universal church, andthe needs of the whole churchare many and varied. Becauseof their backgrounds and localconditions, some bishops feelthat they should not move toofar or too fast in this work of"renewing the Church." Others,reflecting their local situationand perhaps with an eye to theneeds of the Church in the dec­odes ahead, are calling for far­ll'caching reforms.

Here to Learn

It would be wrong at thisllhge of the Council, however,to consider the positions of thebishops as fixed and unchange­able. Nothing could be fartherfrom the truth! For the bishopslill"e here to learn as well as tolegislate.

A recent editorial in TheAnchor gave the best analysis ofthe present picture that hasanywhere appeared in print"All these various differences,"the editorial commented, "willbecome more manifest as theCouncil progresses. This is pre­cisely a purpose of the Counciland should not be cause for con­cern. What better way to ac­quaint all the bishops of theworld with the problems of allthan to bring all together infreedom of discussion and sym­pathetic concern for one' an­other's challenges?"

Hans KungFather Hans Kung, the re­

nowned German theologian, en­larged upon this theme duringa lecture to the American gradu_ate students in Rome. "Even ifthis first session should producefew results," Father Kung said,"and even if the Council itsel.fshould not achieve the highhopes we have for it-neverthe­less much shall still be accom­plished. The bishops shall returnto their dioceses awake to the

ord this season, the only loss lastSaturday to Howard, 3-1. But­ler, incidentally, rammed homehis 24th in that game, a hard,high 20-footer that the enemygoalkeeper never had a chanceon.

Butler is not a one man team,however. He's the first to admitthat teammates like Johnny Pa­checo, Ronnie Ponte, John Trz­nadel, Lionel Bourassa, and BobParker give him plenty of help.

They all have tremendous ex­perience, Pacheco and Ponteparticularly are adept at settingup scoring situations.

Butler belie"ves ball control isthe good soccer player's "must."That, he admits, is the chiefreason for his own success, andcomes only with diligent prac... _tice.

He is quick to credit forme2'Olympic .soccer star, MannyMartin of Fall River with nspecial assist in that department,They play together on the Ma­deira Soccer Club of New Bed­ford. Current coach Ed Cloutieyis another Bill gives credit to."But many have helped me," 'hemodeStly admitted, "I couldn'tbegin to name them all."

The son of Mr. and Mrs. DavidH. Butler of 56 ·Eiswick Street,North Dartmouth, and a Com­municant of St. George's Churc~

in Westpjort, Bill is presentlymajoring in textile technology.He hopes to enter the textilebusiness, but wants to stay asclose to home as possible. As faras soccer is concerned, the slight­ly-built booter hopes to continueplaying. He says he has no pro­fessional aspirations right now,this despite a strong belief hecould make the grade as a pro(Clark said: I think he could gCDin professional ball). "I'd liketo coach the game, though," But­ler advanced.

Of course, he's quite serioullabout Rosemary Williams '00Fairhaven, the' girl he plans tomarry next Summer. Askedwhether she is a soccer fan, Billsaid: "She is now. but shc wasn'twhen I met her."

Right now, Bill's main interClJtis keeping his marks up (theyare good) and winning a fou.rUtsuccessive Colonial Conferencetitle and pcrhaps getting aRlNAIA berth 'and another shot atthe national championship. That'sbeen bothering him since Techbowed out in the '59 play. I~

would be a fitting finale to anillustrious career. 0-

In the meantlme, he's a strollllJcandidate for NAIA All Ameri­can honors. By everyone's admis­sion-those who have seen himplay and those he's playerlagainst-Butler, an uncanny shotand expert dribbler with supewmoves, has proved his claim.

Stars With·Ne'" Bedford TechProlific'Scorer Wins Accolades of Opposing Rooters

By Lynn KennedyFred Clark, veteran area

college and professional soc­cer official, calls him the bestcollegiate hooter in NewEngland. His teammates thinkhe's the greatest. Rival collegecoaches run out of accolades de_scribing him. He's Bill Butler,probably the nation's most pro­lific college shotmaker who doeshis scoring for New BedfordTech.

A senior from North Dart­mouth, Bu'tler has scored Closeto 80 goals in his four years ofplay at Tech, and he still has twotilts to go, one tomorrow againstNew Haven College and anothernext week against New EnglandCollege of Henniker, N. H. forthe Colonial Conference cham­pionship. So far this season,Butler has 24 markers in 11 con_tests, a 2.18, goals per gameaverage.. The likeabfe '2i-year older has

been bombarding e~emy goaliesfor 11 years now, starting on thepitch for New. Bedford Voca­Uonal. High· as a 16 year oldJUnior. It was the late Tradecoach, Tom Mulvey, who· wa,sattracted by Butler's raw abil­ity, and taught him the basicfundamentals of the game-howto tr~p, control and 'dribble. ByBill's own admission, it wasCoach Mulvey who started himon his way to stardom,

Plenty of local amateur com­petition following his days atYoke helped Butler mature, butit was a 2-year army hitch inGermany that led to his devel­opment as a goal-getter. Bill wasplaying with an army post outfitnear Wiesbaden, when his coach,a German, invited him to playwith the First Football Clilb ofWiesbaden, a top-notch civilianteam. '

"I won't forget Herb Roth (thecoach) ," Butler said.

"I played insidE: right, butthe caliber of ball was so muchbetter than I had been used tothat I just had to improve. Morethan anything else, he taught mea lot of the finer points of pass­work and how to set up plays.That's what makes scores," But­ler ventured.

Chided about whether hefound the language a barrier,being the only Yank playingwith 10 Germans, Bill said,"That was' no problem, theycommunicate with the ball."

After his service stint, Billcame home and enrolled at Techin the Fall of '59. That launcheda· fabulous chapter in theWhalers' soccer history. Underthe tutelage of Coach Ed Clou­tier, with Butler cast in theleading role, Tech has coppedthree successive ~olonial crowns,in the process earning one inviteat Slippery Rock, P~nnsylvania,

The group is designed tobridge the gap between the highschool and the adult world-agap, Miss Carney said, which isregarded by many as very widebecause of the disparity of ages,tastes, social life, choice of apos­tolic 'Work and the reluctance ofyoung people to fraternize withadults.

Dumont said in the U. S. "adivorce is granted every min­ute'." He added' it is a situationwhere a woman "can changehusbands as often as one cancharige c1o~hes."

The 'divorce legislation wasadvocated by Arnold, Peters, anMP from Temiskaming. AllCanadian provinces, exceptQuebec and Newfoundland, havetheir., own divorce· courts. Di­vorce matters from ,Quebec andNewfoundland must be dealtwith by. Parliament. Peters hasbeen trying for several years teoset up the Exchequer Court. planto rid Parliament of divorcematters in'the two provinces.

The efforts of Dumont con­tributed to a "read out" of thebill. The measure now revertsto the bottom of the list oflegislation. It is not likely to becalled up again at the presentsession.
