Baptismal Catechetical
Guidelines to be pressnted by
Fathers Hamilton and
LaPorte, C.Ss.R. at the
November meeting.
The Committee has worked
for months to gather in-
formation from other dioceses
and suggestions from our own
parish priests in order to
compile guidelines most
adequate for our area. Father
LaPorte said that local priests
who responded to a recent
questionnaire on the subject
all agreed of the need for pre-
baptismnl catechesis. but
differed on standards and
implementation. The
guidelines to be recommended
w'ill contain at least the
minimum content to be
covered in such instructions,
suggestions for methods and
other addenda. While allowing
for practical pastoral
judgments in certain in-
dividual cases, the guidelines,
once approved by the Bishop,
will become effective
throughout the diocese.
In other business, the Senate
also discussed the approval of
guidelines regarding
marriage instructions and
marriage in the case of
minors. To better insure the
readiness of such couples,
questionnaires (already in use
in many other dioceses) will

SUBIACO, Ark. (NC) -
Father Raphael De Salvo, 55,
has been elected fifth abbot of
New Subiaco Abbey here in a
vote of the 90 members of the
Benedictine community.
Abbot de Salvo entered the
monastary in 1939, took his
simple vows in 1940 and was
ordained in 1945. After earning
licentiate and doctoral
degrees in theology at the
Catholic University of
America in Washington, D. C.,
he became rector of Subiaco
major seminary in 1948,
serving until 1963.
Father De Salvo headed the
Subiaco Benedictine mission
in Nigeria from 1963 until its
disbanding during the African
country’s civil war in 1967.
He has been prior of the
Arkansas abbey since 1968,
having been a parish ad-
ministrator briefly in 1967.
Abbot De Salvo succeeds
Abbot Michael Lensing, 59,
who retired in September
because of ill health.
Fourth Synod of Bishops
ROME (NC) — Cardinal John Krol of Philadelphia, president of the National Conference
of Catholic Bishops, said it is too soon to tell what impact the just-concluded fourth world
Synod of Bishops will give on the continuing life of the Church. But he said the synod is
significant as an expression of ‘‘the collegial, collaborative spirit envisioned by the Second
Vatican Council.” The exchange of views among the world’s bishops and with the Pope and
Vatican agencies “grew in its frankness, sincerity and probing character” during this
synod, he said. ‘‘The synod made clear that justice and human development are intimately
related to evangelization,” Cardinal Krol said, adding: ‘‘The Church can no more neglect to
work for justice than it can neglect to preach the Gospel and celebrate the sacraments.”
Wants Pope to Hold Press Conference
SPOKANE, Wash. (NC) — Msgr. George Higgins, the U.S. Catholic Conference’s
secretary for research, told Northwest Catholic journalists here that he hopes “to live long
enough tosee the day when the Pope will agree to hold an occasional press conference.” He
added:
"In other words, I can’t understand why we assume that the Church can be in the modern
world and at the same time be exempt from its rules and demands.” He also said the Church
was not communicating effectively on the issues of women’s liberation and abortion. “We
run away from the question of the ordination of women as though it has already been settled
that this would be absolutely in violation of the divine law,” he said. He also emphasized the
“distinction between our moral teaching on the subject of abortion and the legal means to be
adopted to regulate the practice.” A person “can be completely opposed to abortion...and
still have questions in his mind how best to approach the problem legally,” he said.
Stronger Churches not Involved
BOSTON (NC) — Retired Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen said here that the Catholic Church
in America “is shedding its old skin and a new and stronger Church will soon emerge.”
Warning that “Christianity has lost the sense of self-denial and mortification that sym-
bolizes Christ on the Cross,” the 79-year-old archbishop predicted that, “despite the
cowards leaving our churches and the lack of discipline in our lives,” the Church “will soon
have a great resurrection.”
More Priests
CINCINNATI (NC) — No-Priest-Land is shrinking, according to the Glenmary Home
Missioners. who coined the term and whose chief purpose is to bring the Church to the
nation’s priestless counties.
The latest revision of their No-Priest-Land map shows that the number of U.S. counties
without a resident priest has dropped to 599 from 643 four years ago. When the map first
appeared in 1937, the total was 1,022 counties, or nearly one-third of the nation.
