CARRY HOSTS Children Make First Communion On Saturday, November 21, 1964, the Sacrament of Holy Eucharist was received by 12 children from the Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, at the 9:00 o’clock Mass. For the first time, the clothing selected to be worn, was white robes and veils for the girls, and white and gold robes for the boys. Two first graders, carrying clusters of grapes and wheat, led the procession into church. The young choir, composed of third graders, dressed in the School uniform, followed and assembled at the altar, facing the congregation with arms folded across their chests. As the First Communicants ap proached the altar, the young choic extended their arms to them and sang the 99th psalm, “Arise, Come to Your .Lord.” ALL OF the communicants carried their own patens and unconsecrated Hosts to the foot of thv altar, where Father Ar- thru Murray, O.F.M., pastor and celebrant of the Mass, de scended to accept the Host from each Child into the ci- borium to be consecrated at the Mass. l ' 1 During the Mass, the First Communicants and young child ren’s choir sang during the Of fertory and the People's Com munion.

News Serivce) VATICAN CITY — The sug- tion on marriage which the council has sent to Pope Paul VI for his own consideration take up little more than two pa ges of printed text. But if accepted and enacted, they could give the Church’s matrimonial laws a such milder countenance. ALL so-called "minor’’ im pediments to marriage would be suppressed. Future lgislation onmarri- age between Catholics and bap tized non-Catholics, or bet ween Catholics and unbaptized persons, would be oriented al ong the council’s guidelines on ecumenism. The legal procedure in mar riage cases wold be streamlined* All persons would be assured the help of a qualified lawyer without cost. THE original schema on mar riage was drawn up in 1963 during the interim between the council’s first and second ses sions. The Commission on Dis cipline of the Sacraments pre pared this document by synthe sizing the extensive studies on marriage carried out by its pre decessor, the preparatory com mission. However, in January of 1964 the Coordinating Commission decided to reduce the schema to a simple series of sugges tions for reform of the Church's law on marriage. Such reform would be determined by the demands of the care of souls, or what is called the pastoral ministry. Marriage as a sacrament is not treated in detail by this set of suggestions. However, the sacrament of Matrimony is touched upon by the council’s 1 documents on the nature of the Church, on the apostolate of the laity, and on the Church in the modern world. THE present text is divid ed into three parts: The first part recalls a num ber of basic principles, such as matrimony's sacred character and holiness of marriage con tracted between two baptized persons as memners of Christ. Their union canbe closely rela ted to Christ's union with His Church, it says. It touches on the Church’s competence in safeguarding the integrity of the sacrament of Matrimony and its consequent right to make laws on marriage. THE second part offers guidelines for a revision of Church law in view of the needs of our times, especially those created by more fluid emigra tion and the emergence of new states. It suggests suppression of minor . impediments, . among which are consanguinity in the third degree of the collateral line, affinity in the second degree of the collateral line, and spiritual relationships ar ising from sponsorship in Bap tism or Confirmation. It recommends simplification of the formalities required for marriage in the presence of a priest authorized to bless the marriage. The local bishop will have closer control over the so- called extraordinary form of marriage that is, when the pre sence of a priest is impossible. THE third and last part urges pastors of souls to regard pre paration for marriage as a ser ious duty of their ministry. Pas tors should seek the collabo ration of Other priests or competent law persons, both men and women, in this instru ction and preparation for marriage. r NEWMAN Club members from Emory University, and Clark, Georgia State, Morehouse, Morris Brown and Spelman colleges recently attended an initiation ceremony at St. Paul of the Cross parish.
