Ground Broken
ANCHORAGE, Alaska—(NO—
Ground has been broken for the
new National Catholic Commun
ity Service—USO building here.
In 1948 the NCCS purchased a
residence in downtown Anchor
age which since has served to
take care of NCCS-USO activi
ties. Due to the large numbers
of servicemen at military bases,
the club house became inadequate
and NCCS officials arranged the
Holy Family Parish and Bishop
Dermot O’Flanagan of Juneau, to
erect a 48-by-75 foot structure on
the parish property.
An average of 8000 persons
patronize the NCCS-USO club in
Anchorage each month, it has
been estimated. The new club
house will be one story and of
concrete block.

For the fourth time in six years, the
concert choir of Xavier University of Louis
iana (New Orleans) will make a cross
country trip to a national convention of
the Catholic Students' Mission Crusane at
the University of Notre Dame. This year's
MANCHESTER, England.
Msgr. Joseph Cardijn, founder
of the Young Christian Workers,
celebrated his golden jubilee as
a priest by attending a big rally
of the organization here.
The Belgian priest whose YCW
now totals more than 1,500,000
active apostles scattered th ugh
the workshops and factories of 75
countries, told the members at
the rally: You are the revolu
tion.”
After calling for more respect
for the worker and for honesty
by and to the worker, he de
clared:
"Without th* working class
tho Church is not tho Church
of Christ. Th-' working clan in
tho Church has a mission to
realise tho mission of Christ in
the world of tomorrow. And the
young people of tho world must
know that they cannot be saved
in Moscow. They must go to
Rome."
Canon Cardijn said at the rally
that he founded the movement
after finding as a young semin
arian that his old school friends
were being corrupted
in the
workshops “You are no longer
n friend you are a priest,” one
told him. The canon said that he
has spent more than half-century
since then thinking of means to
benefit young workers and daily
trying to make his dreams a real
ity.
U.S. Heritage
To Be Stressed
By New College
BOSTON—(NC) More accent
should be placed on the American
heritage in history and literature
in higher education, according to
Sister M. Verda Clare, president
of the Archbishop Cushing Col
lege here.
The Holy Cross nun-educator
has announced that a major in
American studies wil’ be fea
tured when the college begins
its first four year liberal arts pro
gram in September.
The college founded by Arch
bishop Richard J. Cushing of Bos
ton in 1952 has been offering
two-year terminal courses as the
only Catholic Junior College in
New England. While retaining
these two-year courses, the col
lege will expand into a four year
libera! arts program in the fall.
A former
10
vice-president at St.
Mary’s College, Notre Dame, Ind.,
Sister Verda Clare sees Boston as
an ideal setting for the introduc
tion of the American studies ma
jor. The historic and cultural
materials available makes the
program especially attractive to
students,
she said.

BOONE, Iowa (NC) Tribute was accorded here
to the memory of Kate Shelley, Irish immigrant girl, re

history of the Midwest.

where a granite monument and

close by the final resting place
of Kate Shelley.
Mayme Shelley, 84-yaar-eld

BONN—(NO Forty-six Ca
tholic boys and girls arrived here
under the auspices of the Na
tional Catholic Welfare Confer
ence teenage program to visit
for six weeks with German fam
ilies.
For the past seven years the
U.S. State Department has work
ed with private agencies, among
them the NCWC, to bring young
Germans to visit with families in
the United States. This is the
first time, however, that the Unit
ed States has sent American boys
and girls to Germany.
Dr. James B. Conant, the Amer
ican Ambassador to Germany,
wrote that this exchange of visits
will be vital to the development
of a real understanding between
Germany and the United States.
Chancellor Konrad Adenauer
of Germany sent his greetings in
a
brief letter to the group.

At the railroad depot orders
came for an engine to proceed
along the right of way to make
certain the tracks and bridges
were safe. When it arrived at
Honey Creek bridge, the locomo

River.
At the Shelley home, Kate and
her mother heard the crash. Real
izing the danger to the approach

old Catholic girl set out with the
prayer of her mother, “Go in
God’s name,” to flag down the ex
press.
She had to cross a bridge on
her hands and knees, praying all
the while, but she made it to the
railroad station, warned the agent
of the danger and then fainted.
The approaching express was
flagged down and saved from
plunging into the roaring river.
When Kate Shelley revived, she
insisted upon joining the rescue
party which went to the Honey

four men aboard the locomotive
which plunged in were rescued.

scene of her heroism. At the time
of her death in 1912, she was one
of the few women railroad sta
tion agents in the country.
The memory of Kate Shelley
has been honored before in many
ways. The railroad bridge be
tween Boone and Ogden, Iowa,
described as the longest double
track bridge in the world at the
time of its construction, was nam
ed for her. Several months ago
the Chicago and Northwestern
named a new train running be
tween Chicago and Boone "the
Kate Shelley 400.” A ballad was
written about her as well as vari
ous poems. One poem was com
posed by McKinley Kantor, wide

Told U.S. Has
Pagans, Big Heart
PORTLAND, Ore.—"We find in
the United States the rankest
paganism, the greatest material
ism and the strongest temptation
to indifferentism to be found
outside Soviet Russia,” Bishop
Vincent S. Waters of Raleigh, N.
C., told delegates to the Catholic
Daughters of America convention
here. At the same time, he add
ed, we find in Americans the
greatest generosity of any people
in the world.
Exhorting his listeners to great
er zeal and and activity, Bishop
Waters said: "Our present prob
lems can be solved only by a
fundamentally religious answer.
The work of the laity of the
Church together with the clergy
is absolutely essential to that
solution.”
Delegates of the 200,000-mem
ber organization came here from
46 states, Puerto Rico, Hawaii,
Alaska and Cuba.
Bishop Waters pointed out that
the United States has the great
est number of major crimes of
any country "as well as the larg
est record of juveitile delin
quency.”
