FEBRUARY 1. 1930 THE BULLETIN OF THE CATHOLIC LAYMEN’S ASSOCIATION OF GEORGIA 3 PRIEST PREDICTS RADIO COHERES Listeners Now Want More Entertainment, Villanova College Head Says American Missioners Learn PRAY FOR OUR DEAD Aviation to Further Work VILLINOVA. Pa.—Radio colleges will be established influence in the educational life of America within the next five years, the Rev. Dr. James H. Griffin, O. S. A., president of Villanova College,- forecasts. Dr. Griffin is making a study of the ef ficacy of educational broadcasts. Information from Ray Lyman Wil bur. secretary of the interior, who also is keenly interested in the feasi bility of adult education by radio, is being sought by the" Villanova presi dent. “Listeners no longer dial away from every radio talk,’’ said Dr. Griffin. ’They have learned thqt special broadcasts, such as the one from the American Philosophical Society in which Dr. Elihu Thomson, the fa mous inventor, and Dr. Harlow Shap- ley, Harvard astronomer, took part are entertaining as well as informa tive. “Broadcasting is entering a new cy cle. It. has passed the novelty stage and it is putting behind it the days when listeners demand only enter tainment.’’ The Villanova president regards ed ucation over the aid not as a com petitor of the college but as an ad junct. He believes broadcasts may help to solve the problem of continu- In the education of the graduate after he leaves college. “The success of educational broad casting depends upon making the pro gram interesting to the last minute, through dramatization,” Dr. Griffin • asserted. “The person before the mi crophone must realize he cannot de pend upon his appearance and ges tures to hold the attention of the lis teners.” Educational broadcasts derive their strength from the fact that the lis teners are in a receptive mood, the Villanova educator believes. Hence, the lecturer does not have to over come mental indifference or resistance in the students.

C.—Missionary work, one of the oldest of the Church’s practices, and aviation, modernity’s newest development, have joined forces. In Washington, Brother G. J.

Jan. 20. — Making a plea for prayers for the London Naval Parley, and urging solid support for President Hoover in the trying days ahead during the period of the con ferences, Rev. Jones I. Corrigan, S. J.. professor of sociology' at Boston College, told L000 members of the League of Catholic Women at Em manuel College, the Fenway, that “the peace of mankind hangs on the outcome of the London parleys.” “It is difficult to exaggerate tne significance of the conference in London." Father Corrigan said. “No meeting of the nations since the Peace Conference in Paris after the World War compares with this. Though the formal deliberations of the conference itself will be confined to strictly naval issues, the fact that it is held at all, the character of - its personnel, and still more the po litical discussions between the gov ernments represented, will make it by far the most important interna tional conference in a decade. “The success isf the conference will depend much upon the spirit in which* it is approached. The Peace Pacts are the only real basis for the navy cuts sought. Any insistence on national selfishness, or any effort to bargain or barter the peace of the world for national interests should meet with the universal condemna tion ot mankind. The progress of world peace should not be put in jeopardy by the selfishness of im perial designs of anv government. "The success of the London Na val Parley, with the Kellogg Peace Pact as its basis, means that the new moral peace idea will be triumphant in thes world. With this in mind, all lovers ox peace will watch with hopeful hearts the progress of the parleys in London, and will, in prayer, uohold the hand- of Presi dent Hoover in his really noble ef forts to advance world peace.” LACKAY & LACKAY Dealers *n FAMILY GROCERIES.

Open Saturday afternoon from four to seven for the purpose of receiving Savings Deposits Brother Feltes' project is nearer realization than either of the others. He holds what is known as a “limit ed commercial” license, which privi- j leges him to fly mail, baggage and 1 passengers not for hire. Too. he is 1 familiar with the flying conditions irf Alaska, and is preparing to take a course in wireless telegraphy, so that- he may keep in touch with the out side world when he leaves for a flight over the interior of the North country. Brother Feltes plans to obtain his plane before February 1 and fly back to the coast hv easy stages, possibly making the trip with four or five halts. Once in California, lie will spend another month on cross-coun try flights, for practice, after which he will leave for the North. If con ditions permit, he said, he will fly the plane from San Francisco to Seat tle, stop there, and then resume his journey by sir, flying to Fairhaaics If. however, weather conditions pro hibit, he will have the aircraft ship- j ped from Seattle by boat. The date I of his departure for Alaska is tenta tively set'at March 15. Tire plane will be equipped with a wireless receiving and sending set which is u duplicate of that used by Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd, who is I now in the Antarctic. This set, j Brother Feltes said, has a sending I range of about 17.000 miles, and will j enable him to keen i*v constant touch j with ground stations 'Whenever he is in the air. The thought of using an airplane for Northern missionary weak result ed from an experience of the Rev. Philip Delon, S.J., Jesuit Superior in Alaska. A commercial flyer madr a forced landing at Holy Cross, where the Superior makes his headauarters, and spent some two months there re pairing his plane. The missionaries assisted him in every way porsib’e, and, when he was ready to leave, he offered to take the Superior on a flight to mission posts as a means of repaying him for his hospitality. Father Delon accomplished in a week of flying what would have taken months behind dogs, and immediately became sold on the idea of using the air as a transportation medium in hi ; work. With the plane he will visit all the missions in three weeks, a t v.k that formerly took nearly a year. Funds for the purchase of the plane and equipment are being raised by the Marquette Lcdgue for Indian Missions of New York. The Bureau of Cath olic Indian Missions here also is as sisting in working out details on the project. Brother Feltes. although he has had eighty hours of solo flying, never rode in a plane until last July. His first flight, however, made him an ardent devotee of the art, and he began a course of instruction at the Curtiss school in Oakland. He qualified and received first his private license and then his commercial one; as soon as he has had 200 hours in the air,’ he said, he plans to take a test for a transport license, the highest issued by the Department of Commerce.
