Church muse look to the present,
to the nev, conditions and new
forms of life introduced into
the modern world which have
opened new avenues to the
Catholic Apostuiate.”
“As the bishops returned to
their Sees, it was this sense
of renewal, sweeping through
the Christian world, that has
opened up “new avenues’* to
that unity which is the prayer
of Protestants and Orthodox,
as well as Catholics. Ameri
can bishops, more than ever
before, are meeting with
churchmen of other faiths, dis
cussing the Council, sorting
out similar and divergent posit
ions, and sharing a serious
but congenial concern for the
grave needs of modern men.
Did the Vatican Council not
only open new avenues, but
flood them with the kindly light
of interreligious dialogue?
"THE FIRST session encour
aged us to hope so, in two ways,
hirst, the overwhelming note on
the first chapter of the liturgy
is now being appreciated in its
full historical context. Although
it still awaits the completion of
the remaining chapters, and
promulgation by the Holy
Father, this first chapter has
already awakened Catholic
hearts in many lands.
Two Girls
From Rome
Two girls from Rome,
Georgia, Miss Mary Alice Mc
Mahon, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. George McMahon, and
Elizabeth Drew, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. William Drew,
have been received into Mu
Alpha Theta, an international
high school and junior college
mathematics honor society at
Sacred Heart Academy, Cull
man, Alabama.
"The increased use of the
uernacular is only one aspect,
making it intelligible to Christ
ians of otherfaiths. Protestants
may find in the new form of
worship a stronger Biblical em
phasis, as well as more stress
on the homily.
Orthodox may find there is
room in the Latin Liturgy for
Holy Communion under two
species, and con-celebration of
Mass by more than one priest.
These changes will not be a
“modernization" not a return
to antiquity. They will be a re
newal in the true sense; and
application of old and honored
principles to new and urgent
situations.
“The second Ecumenical fact
from this first session is the
Bible itself. More and more of
the Council Fathers expressed
a desire to center the teaching
of theology on the Scriptures
themselves. This is a delicate
and difficult area, because it
was the cry of “Sola Script-
ura" which helped divide
Christianity in the 16th Century.
The Word of God Is the concern
of every Christian, but Catho
lic and Protestants have diff
ered sharply in their interpret
ations,
“THE ROLE of the living
Church as the witness of God’s
word must be studied more
deeply, and we Invite our Pro
testant brethren to join in this
study with us. The notable gains
in the first session of the Coun
cil are the encouragement of
Biblical scholarship within the
Teaching authority of the
Church, and the Reconsiderat
ion of the relation between the
Bible and tradition. Although
nothing definite has been
accomplished here, the Catholic
attention given to the whole
subject is another welcome
beam of light on an Ecumeni
cal avenue that up to now has
hardly been traveled.”

Student
Problems
Discussed
Continued from Page 1
lescent Psychology, Professor
Karl C. Garrison, Chairman of
the Department of Educational
Psychology, University* of
Georgia stressed the fact that
we have students with pro
blems—not problem students.
He reminded the teachers of
the basic need of the students,
particularly affection and
security. “In respect to affect
ion," he said, “there are two
extremes— overindulgence and
neglect, and over indulgence is
as harmful to a child as ne
glect.”
PROFESSOR Garrison told
the assembled teachers that
teenagers feel apart and there
seems to be no place for them
In today’s world. He recalled
his boyhood on the farm where
he had many definite chores
to do, He knew he was needed
and wanted. He stated that
teachers and parents can give
teenagers a sense of security
by giving them a sound phil
osophy of life.
Another speaker at the In
stitute was Sister Mary Jerome,
0. S. F. of Pittsburgh, Penn
sylvania.
Delegates were also treated
to selections by the St. Joseph
High Glee Club, under the di
rection of Sister M. Magdalla,

Pennsylvania, during the week
of February 25.
IN THE Maryland case, Mrs.
Madalyn Murray of Baltimore,

Her son is. a Baltimore public
school student.
The religious practices at is
sue in this case were held to be
constitutional last June by the
Maryland Court of Appeals.
The state attorneys general
advance two main arguments in
their brief:

the Court uf Appeals of Mary
land in this case will require by
necessary implication the pro
hibition of all official public ac
knowledgments of the divinity
and the thelstlc concept of our
origin and end.
"REVERSAL of the decision
...will by necessary implication
impose upon the populace an
atheistic or at least agnostic
concept of our origin and end

St. Pius’ Golden Lions rolled
to a victory over St. Joseph’s
basketball team Friday. The
game was close during the first
half with St. Pius leading by
28-22 at the half.
In the second half, the Lions
led by as many as twenty points.
They lost this lead early in the
fourth quarter. At this point the
Hawks trailed by 9.
Denny Bishop, the St. Pius
captain, kept the game out of
the Hawks reach with key bas
kets in the last stanza. Denny

It states that , apart from
Maryland and Pennsylvania,
opening devotional exercises

Bishop ended the night with 21
points for the game high. Denny
Wigbels scored 10 points and
made many steals to aid the
Lion cause.
For the Hawks, Downing and
Newby led the scorers with 13
points apiece. Downing also did
a fine job on the boards.
Again it was Kitty* Hynes who
led the Lady Lions to a 45 to 21
victory over St. Joseph’s girls.
These wins added to a long
string of victories St. Pius
has over St. Josephs.

I WOULD TRAVEL the world over to preach Thy name . . .
••Though destined never to leave her convent at Llsieux, the
.♦ /y. LITTLE FLOWER, who wrote these
words, is today PATRON of MIS-
. J* SIONARIES. Now another Carmelite,
Sister Maria Francesca, writes from
ERNAKULAM, INDIA: It is 47 yeari
C! 3 since St. Mary’s Convent has been
1 f mm ** started ... We are 73 sisters in this
house. We run a hljrh school, two
hostels and an orphanage . . . Our
earnings so far have been spent for
these social works ... We are not
able to make a proper house for Our
Lord. Our financial condition doesn’t
allow us to do this ... So we approach
our benefactors with an humble request that they may kindly
help us . . .’ ” Sister Maria Francesca’s chapel will cost $3,000.
Who can resist the appeal of these self-sacrificing sisters? . . .
A perfect work for those devoted to ST. THERESE! Why not
send your donation, in her honor, now?

helpless adults and children depend for their main support . . .

needed . . . Your membership in our association ($1 a year for
single persons: $5 for a family) keeps us going . . . $10 gives a
refugee family a food package for a month’s subsistence . . .
$2 gives one of them a blanket ... All this help comes from

keep it coming and understand that 500 words don’t let us say
thanks as much as we would like to!
