Backs Viet
Policy
WILMINGTON, Del. (NC)—
Bishop Michael W. Hyle of Wil
mington has called for support
of the United States policy in
Vietnam.
The bishop took exception
both to calls for the withdrawal
of all American troops and to
pleas for an all-out war in Viet
nam. Speaking in St. Peter's
cathedral here, he said the for
mer course "does not seem
realistic" and the latter "would
be both inhuman and immoral.”
"With due respect for indivi
dual consciences," Bishop Hyle
said, "I think we should sup
port our government and have
sufficient faith in the integrity
of our civil leaders, to believe
that they are in a position to
know all the facts and that they
will not do anything unneces
sary that'would continue or ex
tend the terrifying destruction
and agony of human beings on
both sides of the conflict."

Warns Educators Against

statement by the cardinal, who
heads the Vatican Secretariat
for Promoting Christian Unity.
It will be printed in Rosea, a
magazine published by the Pro

ment.
'The consciousness of this
communion,” Cardinal Bea
said, "finds itself deeply ex
pressed in the common decla
ration of the Holy Father and the
Archbishop of Canterbury read
at the end of the Liturgy of
the-Walls. It pledges all to
bury in ovlivion the sad and
painful past and to make efforts
to be faithful to the command
of Christ to love one another."
CARDINAL BEA said this
love "must become concrete in
. all the members on both sides,
in mutual respect, esteem and
brotherly love."
It must also, he added, "lead
to an earnest dialogue based on
the Gospel and on the ancient
common traditions of both
Churches, as well as to that
unity in truth for which Christ
prayed." .

(N. C. W. C. News Service)
CHICAGO — Warning Catho
lic school teachers against
* ‘self-inflicted *hair shirtitis* ”
a university professor caution
ed if they do not rebel against
being classified as second best
they may wind up on such a com
placent plateau.
Discussing innovations in sec
ondary . education, Melvin P.
Heller, professor of education
at Loyola University here, told
the 63rd annual National Catho
lic Educational Association
convention (April 13): ‘This
is a competitive world and it
is no longer fashionable to wear
a hair shirt. To cure the Cath
olic schools of self-inflicted
'hair shirtitis' would indeed be
an innovation.*’
He told the educators" they
should unload their stock in
"agonizing reappraisal" for a
vastly improved program of
public relations.
"Criticism has its place, and
if the shoe fits, wear it," Hell
er said. ' ‘But when allegations
are unfounded and when excel
lence is unnoticed, it is sheer
folly to hide under a cloak of
false humility."
SINGLING out as an example
' ‘the well publicized dedication
to excellence at the University
of Notre Dame," Heller cau
tioned "most Catholic schools"
ST. PIUS JUNIOR
against a tendency "to hide
their light under the proverbial
bushel." Negativism and sil
ence are bad for everybody’s
morale, and "if you believe. In
what you are doing, your integ
rity cannot suffer if you publi
cize it," Heller advised.
"Many teachers and admin
istrators agree that changes
are necessary and important,
but their agreement often is
solely on the verbal level,"
he declared. “When to this un-
known but. mighty number of
well-informed do-nothings we
add the numerous and vigorous
advocates of the status quo, we
end up with an imposing total
which far exceeds the small
number of educators who do
something positive about educa
tion.” .
Heller told the delegates that
current educational thought
presents numerous innovations
in methodology, curriculum and
facilities. He said that team
teaching, non-gradedness and
educational television have high
priority.,
Non-gradedness implies a
recognition of the fact that stu
dents learn according to their
ability and not according to
their birthday, Heller said. It
provides students with an op
portunity to learn at their pace
so that they can go beyond the
"arbitrary confines" of a giv
en grade level, he stated..

as a means of improving the
curriculum through the best use
of teacher talents and student
abilities.
‘ ‘If the teachers on the team
are grouped according to com
plementary strengths, the ad
vantages offered by the team
approach are outstanding," he'
said.
HE DESCRIBED many pos
sible variations on the rectan
gular, boxlike classrooms found
in most schools. He mentioned
circular rooms, square rooms,
windowless rooms, divisible
rooms and meditation rooms.
He said all of them were design
ed to provide a more viable
teaching-learning environment
than is possible in the tradi
tional classroom.
“Whatever your reaction to
the specifics, there can be no
doubt that innovative uses of
school buildings are on the in
crease and it is an obligation
of professional educators to be
informed of this situation,"
Heller declared.
He also pointed out that while
silence in the halls and floors
free of paper may appeal to
some, they are not necessary ;
for academic excellence.
HELLER said the selection of
innovations is a matter of indi
vidual choice.
“If you see great strengths in
a classical, traditional curricu
lum, then toughen requirements
and remove what you consider to
be frills," he suggested. "What
is important is that innovations
are undertaken for the purpose
of improving teaching and
learning.
‘Then take the time to tell
yourself and the academic world
about your efforts," Heller
advised.

POPE SA YS
Church And World
Relation Lively
VATICAN CITY (RNS)—The
problem of relations between
the Church and the world has
become “a more lively one,"
especially following Vatican II,
Pope Paul VI told,pilgrims at
tending his midweek general au
dience in St. Peter’s Basilica.
'The Council,” he said "had
undertaken an examination of
conscience, especially in the
light of mankind’s knowledge,
philosophy history, ethics and
earthly realities, for a new dar
ing judgment and effort at un
derstanding.
'This was an act of study
and discovery which the
Church’s teaching had. never
hithferto accomplished in so di- ‘
rect, systematic 'or authorita
tive a way."
The Pope stressed that the ^—
Church "is not a priori in
her judgments nor superficial,
but positive, never abandoning
her teaching and here ascetical
standpoint regarding detach- 1
ment from the world."
'The Church," he said,
' ‘will continue to give the Chris
tian his bearings on the way to
the Kingdom of Heaven, the life
of the spirit and eternity. This
is one of the most salient as
pects of the Council: consider
ing the world in all reality with
loving attention, discovering
everywhere traces of God and
therefore of goodness, beauty’
and truth.
‘THIS IS NOT mere philo
sophy but theology, too. The
light of the Gospel will shine
out over the world panorama.
Shadows there are — terrible
and powerful ones; i sin and
death, above all — but never
death, above all — but where-
ever that light is trained there
is God’s reflection. The Church
seeks it, gathers it, finds joy
in it, finds it in the cosmos.
