FRIBOURG, Switzerland (NC
— An American-born woman
who holds a doctorate in theolo
gy said here that more women
theologians would be a big help
to the Church.
ship in the theological sphere,
will use their abilities in other
directions, or not at all—which
may entail a great personal loss
as well as an Immeasurable loss
to the Church,"
“More women should specia
lize in philosophy and theology”
and “should also teach these
subjects," said Mary F. Daly,
35, a native of Schenectady, N.
Y., who received her doctorate
In theology last summer at the
Catholic university here.

Msgr. O’Connor
MISS DALY, whose defense

Study in St, Thomas" won her
a summa cum laude, now teach

She received her B.A, from
the College of St. Rose in Al

America in Washington, D.C,
Miss Daly said that “in secu

proved day by day.”
Monsignor O’Connor of St.
Thomas More parish will give
a talk on vocations on Monday,

Half the proceeds were given

Mrs. Mary O’Melia and Mrs.

auctioneers who helped make
the sale exciting and profitable.

“they should find a broader
scope In which to realize their
talents for creative scholarship
and active leadership. It willbe

Please do not send the Bulle
tin to my home. Your articles
are generally fuzzy and without
logic or substance. However,
the editorial in the February
13th edition Is a blow to per
sonal freedom. You Intimate
that “divine law” can deter
mine the use of personal pro
perty better than the owner of
the property. Well, “divine
law” for each religious deno
mination has different mean
ings, and for the agnostic and
the atheist, divine law means
nothing. If this is to be a free
country, then it must be guided
by civil laws, not divine laws.
Mr. Smith pointed out that re
cent Supreme Court decisions
are forcing “agnostic educa
tion” upon the American peo
ple- a type of education which
Mr Smith indicates is ;against
the American principle of free
dom of worship.
The editorial also states “the
Catholic Church has always jus
tified State intervention In the
use of property when the com
mon good is at stake," It should
also be stated that In many
countries where Catholics are

Ours is the Catholic - univer

‘DEAR LORETTA YOUNft'
Woo Him Away
Dear Miss Young:
I am 45 and my children are pretty well raised. My husband
is a good man but for some time now he has been glum and morose
around the house. I can’t pry him loose from the TV and news
paper to take part in any social activities. Is there anyway I
can light a fire under him?
'FIRE LIGHTER"
Dear "FIRE LIGHTER":
Why even try to pry him away? WOO HIM AWAY. You’re
a woman and certainly at 45 you haven't forgotten how to do that.
The degree of happiness in your lives in the future will depend
on how well you do the wooing.
Sincerely,
Loretta Young
Dear Miss Young:
My son, the oldest of six children, Is extremely Immature at
the age of 37. My wife and I realize that we must have made
some serious errors in bring
ing him up. He is an alcoholic,
and now - on top of it all -
he has divorced his wife and left
his four children.
We don’t know where we fail
ed. The gnawing guilt just won’t
leave us. I am awake many
nights thinking about it. My wife
has shed more tears than I can
describe.
This problem Is wrecking us.
we discuss it continuously. The
other children seem happy and
well-adjusted. Will we always
carry this heartache and guilt?
"HURT FATHER*
Dear Father;
Whatever you did happened years ago and cannot be undone
now. Stop tearing yourselves apart over the past - Imagined or
real. If you did make serious mistakes rearing this son, and these
mistakes were recognized as offenses against parental respon
sibility, you’ve probably confessed them. God has forgiven you.
You must forgive yourselves.
I beg of you; [Don't let this problem wreck any more lives than
it already has. This is another nasty little ruse of the devil to
keep you mixed up and unhappy. God wants you to be happy.
A real alcoholic belongs with ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS.
Look it up in the phone book and attempt to get your son to seek
their help. If he refuses, that’s his free will, and you have no right
to infringe upon it.
You both have a duty to make sure that you do not allow this
tragedy to overshadow all the other blessings God has given to you
and your whole family.
Sincerely,
Loretta Young
Dear Miss Young:
When I first started dating Jack, I was twenty nine and he was
twenty five. When he asked me my age, I told him that I was
twenty five because I was afraid he wouldn’t want to date me any
more. Now we have been going out for more than a year and are
desperately in love. Several times he has commented that he al
ways felt he would marry a girl at least five years younger than
him but never one his “own age.”
I am afraid to tell him; yet, at the same
to marry him on the basis of a lie. Please help
I do nc
THIRTY
Dear “THIRTY”:
Is he marrying you? - Or a date on a calendar?
If a “female lying about her age” can turn his undying love
to something less than it should be, forget him.
It is, of course, always embarrassing to admit we have told
a lie. Nevertheless, the quicker you do it, the better. If he is at
all mature, he’ll respect you for having suffered this embarrass
ment for the sake of honesty.
If not, as I said above, forget him. He’s not old enough nor wise
enough for you.
Sincerely,
Loretta Young
