Atlanta PHILADELPHIA (NC) Bishop John J. Wright of Pittsburgh lauded the humility of today's scientists and the steadying in fluence they can bring to eas ing world tensions. The Bishop preached at a Mass he offered (Dec. 30) in. the Cathedral of SS. Peter and Paul here in conjunction with the annual meeting of the Al- bertus Magnus Guild. FREDERICK D.

Bishop Wright is honorary president of the guild, an or ganization of Catholic scien tists, to promote scholarship and greater participation in scientific activities by Catholic The guild meets annually in conjunction with the convention of the American Association for the Advamcement of Science, which brought 4,000 delegates here. CITING discourses of Pope Pius XII and writings of John Henry Cardinal Newman, Bis hop Wright preached on the vo cation and the characteristic virtues of the devout scientist in the 20th century. “There is never any lack of people who feel competent and called upon to point out the de fects of scientists and the sins of ommission or commission which may mar their image; one prefers the positive atti tude of honest praise and grati tude in whice Pope Pius XII expressed and typified the au thentic disposition of the Drops Football Church, as distinct from that of some of her nervous child ren, toward scholars, scholar ship and science,” the Bishop said. “That positive attitude,” he continued, “recognizes and re joices in the vocation of the scientist. That vocation at the moment is complex and mani fold. On the moral and spiri tual side, it includes preemi nently th e destiny of helping to ease a major tension of our civilization—one of the many and typical tensions which are inevitable in a finite order where nature and grace, the mystical and the earthbound, the spiritual and materal, reason and faith, experience and medi tation, tradition and progress, potency and act, know-how and know-why, even body and soul, are too often seen as antimon ies, in mutual and irreconcil able conflict, rather than as correlatives within a single plan at work in disparate material causes but all converging on central final causes under a su preme and overriding divine purpose.” THESE CONFLICTS in the moral and intellectual universe are symbolized by parallel con flicts in the material universe and are keenly felt by the pre sent generation, the Bishop said. "Pope Pius XII, protesting against the existentialist reac tions to them, surveyed them in his last Christmas message, significantly entitled; ‘Modern Technology and the Divine Law NEW LIGHT has been shed on the origin of the famed obelisk that stands in St. Peter’s Quare in Rome. The 83-feet high monument’s present inscription is attributed to the Emperor Caligula, but it has been discovered that the obelisk was first erected by a Roman prefect of Egypt, Caius Cornelius Cal lus, who committed suicide in 26 C.

HIGH SCHOOLS j Professor Assails Student Reading CINCINNATI (NC) A univer sity professor cautioned high school literature teachers to take special care in guarding their students from harmful books, books. Father M. Joseph Costelloe, S. J., classics professor at Creighton University, Omaha, sounded the warning before more than 100 Sisters of Chari ty from three states at an in stitute on high school literature teaching held at the sisterhood’s Mount St. Joseph motherhouse here. IN AN interview, the Nebras ka-born Jesuit said that high school reading lists sometimes includes books which students aren’t mature enough to read without danger. “Some of the moral problems encountered in reading,’’ he said, “are excessive realism in situation and dialogue, and the portrayal of false philosophies. Looking at the problem from another angle, trouble ariese when students read books that are primarily indended for adults, he said. FATHER Costelloe observed “we're living in a pagan milieu in which traditional morality has been widely abandoned.” This is reflected in present- day writing, he said. Teachers have a responsibi lity, he said, to ascertain that books may be harmful for their students. He suggested thar “parents could be brought into the discussion on difficult points”. Father Costelloe asked: “Can a prudent reader of good moral character derive aesthetic pleasure from a book which is fundamentally immoral?” “OLDER critics, such as Aristotle, would deny the pos sibility,” he said, “but some modern critics seem to imply that morality has little to do with art.” Recalling Aristotle's warning that certain plots should not be used because they offend man's moral sense, he said; “Aris totle also observes that in jud- » ging what is pleasant or un- j pleasant we should go by the I judgment of a prudent man, just as with respect to food, j the taste of a healthy man is to be preferred to that of the man who is sick.” FOR PAULISTS Cardinal Establishes New Ecumenical Institute SUPPORT OUR ADVERTISERS Telephone 9-9711 7QI Cherokee Street MARIETTA, GEORGIA ■m ■ * immmwMwauMwiiwwM—i A Stmmr In (very Stall DINING ROOM Og*« * P.

About 800 persons attended the audience, many of them pa rents of the students of Rome’s North American College who had been ordained several days earlier. Pope John drew his remarks from the closeness of the two feasts of Christmas, the day before the audience, and of St. Stephen Martyr, the feast of the audience day. HE TOLD the story of Christ mas and said; “While great joy surrounded the newborn Jesus, at that very moment Herod was planning the slaughter of the innocents.” At the pre sent time, he continued, while he and those present were en joying the audience, there was war and bloodshed somewhere in the world. FIRST AID KITS BOSTON, Mass. (NC) Ric hard Cardinal Cushing his an nounced that he will build a large ecumenical center here for the Paulist Fathers. The Paulists, who are engag ed in dialogue work in Boston, said the foundation will be nam ed the Cardinal Cushing Insti tute for Religious Understand ing. The Archbishop of Boston said the institute will be the first of its kind in the United States. It will be similiar to those already functioning in Europe, such as the Mohler In stitute in Paderborn, Germany, and the Istina in Paris. The purpose of the new in stitute — whose construction cost will be about $250,000— will be to carry on theological studies and discussions between Catholic, Protestant and Jew ish clergymen. The Institute, for which ground will be broken toward the end of March, will house a theological library, small cha pel, meeting rooms and audi torium and living quarters for resident and visiting clergy men. The Paulists have conducted several dialogue sessions here, most recently on October 23 and 24 when some 300 priests and ministers attended sessions on Chris tology, tradition and scripture and the Church and New Testament. Time Selects Pope John NEW YORK (NC) The selec tion of His Holiness Pope John XXIII by Time magazine as its Man of the Year for 1962 marks the first time a religious leader has been chosen by the magazine for the destinction it originated in‘1927. The magazine states that Pope John “created history in a way that few other men were able to do in 1962”. By convening the ecumenical council, Time says, Pope John “set In motion ideas and for ces that will affect not only Ro man Catholics, not only Chris tians, but the whole world's ever-expanding population long after Cuba is once again Tibre* and India is free of attack”.

Land O' Lakes£2 Butter the flavor never varies Sisters Give Doctors Holiday Gift CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo.(NC) Nuns at St. Francis Hospital here gave staff physicians something right in their line as a holiday gift-first aid kits. The kits contain splints, ban dages, dressings and other emergency materials not usual ly carried by doctors. THEY WERE issued to the 45 staff physicians by the Francis can Sisters, Daughters of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, who conduct the hospital. Sister Mary Lillian, who was in charge of a medical self- help course from which the idea evolved, said the kits should prove particularly helpful when doctors are called to the scene of an accident, because mater ials for leg and arm splints are not often available. She added that the physi cians receiving the kits lauded the idea as a practical one and well worth promoting. W -* ■- *• IN ATLANTA WYATT hmowviVn CE 7-8694 # Free Inspect!! 2730 Piedmont Road. N.
