Students Protest Teacher Dismissal WASHINGTON (NC) — More than 1,200 Georgetown Univer sity students have signed a pe tition asking the Jesuit* school to reconsider its dismissal of English professor Francis E. Kearns. Kearns was told last June that his contract at Georgetown would not be renewed. He has Official Rev. Alan M. Dillman, from assistant St. Jude's Parish, At lanta, to full-time at St. Pius X High School, with residence at Our Ldy of the Assumption Parish. Rev. jamas F. Scherer, as sistant, Immaculate Heart erf Mary Parish to be part-time instructor at St, Pius X School. Rev. Henry Doherty to be assistant, St. Jude's Parish, Atlanta. AH appointments are effec tive immediate. said he believes his dismissal stems from articles he publish ed in Catholic magazines cri ticizing Georgetown for its at titudes on race relations and academic freedom. THE STUDENT petition said the teacher's dismissal is “bound to be widely interpret ed as a punitive measure.” The student council of Georgetown College meanwhile adopted a resolution urging the administration to clear up its stand on the issue. Five students met with Father Gerard J. Campbell, S.J., un iversity president, to present the petition. Thomas Anselmi, senior, said after the meeting that Father Campbell stated that faculty and administration re ports on Kearns* case are con fidential. Kearns has asked the Ameri can Association of University Professors to investigate what he called the “questionable cir cumstances” surrounding his dismissal. “FOR long years, dear sons,” the Pope told the priests in English, “you ha ve been pre paring yourselves for the min istry of the Word, and today you are truly stewards of the Gospel. The medem world hurls its challenge at you, and to it you mi st proclaim the Gospel, the word of Christ. Give your selves to your priesthood com pletely because you have within yourselves the power to sanc tify all things ...We congratu late you and we welcome you into this mo at glorious and grand ministry.” To the parents he said: “You have given your sons to the Church, and for all time you Will share in their work. Pray that they may reap a rich har vest for the Church and that their example may attact men of all nations to the way of our Lord. In this you will find you' happiness and your con solation. We know what sacri fices you have made for this day, and we thank you from our heart for the gift you have giv en us.” Inquiring about the home town of each new priest, the Pope gave them, their families and diocese a special congratulation and blessing.

VATICAN CITY (NC)--Pope Paul Vi’s 1964 Christmas mes sage to the world warns against excessive nationalism, racism, and militarism as obstacles to obtaining the great reality of braotherhood to all mankind. In his December 22ndbraod- cast over Vatican radio, the Pope said his recent trip to India confirmed “what Chris tianity has been sahing for cen turies ...all men are brothers’*. To foster brotherhood the Pope urged promotion of pru dence by magnanimous disar mament and at the same time, a drive to overcome the world’s hunger, misery, sickness and ignorance. Moreover he calls for respect for the beliefs of others and the true freedom of the exercise of the religion of one's choice. The Pope began by extending Christmas wishes to all the faithful and then also "to all men of all ages, of all coun tries, and of all beliefs...this year the message we address to all hearers is one of brother- She also launched the Mary land case which resulted in the 1963 Supreme Court decision against prayer and Bible read ing in public schools. In the tax exemption case, she was joined by her mother, Mrs. Leddie Mays, the Freethought Society and Lemoin Cree, a tax payer, Defendants were the City of Baltimore and the State of Maryland, but several religious groups intervened in their sup port. THESE included the Balti more Roman Catholic archdio cese, the Protestant Episcopal Maryland Diocese, the Lutheran Church in America's Maryland synod and Temple Emmanuel, Judge Barnes also said that the plaintiffs had “sufficient stature to maintain the. suit” and to raise the constitutional question of church - state separation before the court. This ruling voided the con tention by defendants that plain tiffs had no legal standing to initiate the litigation. Acting as attorney for the plaintiffs was Leonard J. Ker- pelman, who served in the same capacity in the prayer case. hood, a brotherhood which is more meaningful, is more ac- c pted, more universal than the type which now unites men.” Among other obstacles to brotherhood, the Pope listed class barriers and the spirit of division and strife which to day are stamping our society "with tragic and bitter marks of division and hatried. Men are not happy because they do not live as brothers”. The Pope noted that some may ask “is not religion a motive for the division among men? And especially the Catholic re ligion, so dogmatic, so demand ing and so discrimating?” His answer was "yes” but he added: "it is not of its very nature a devisive element — it is not the nature of religion to oppose itself to people. It is in behalf of people, of their fundamental aspiration to God and their right to manifest this externally in a worthy form of worship” that religion works. He added: It is for the Church to express its sorrow when these activities "impeded, hin dered, forbidden, and even pu nished by forces of public po wer”. As for racism, he declared it "separates and opposes the dif ferent branches constituting the the great human family, re sulting in pride, mistrust, ex- clusiveism, discrimination and sometimes even oppresslsm, thus reuining the mutual respect and due esteem which ought to turn the diverse ethnical groups into apeaceful concert of brotherly people”. FOR SO YEARS, Senora Eugenia Angel de Velez of Medellin, Colombia, has pro vided the hosts used at all Eucharistic Congresses- -re gional, national and interna tional—that have come to her attention.
