SHAMROCK October 4, 1963 Rosory Rotes Reverence The rosary is a powerful means of keeping in touch with God and Our Blessed Mothei, commented Sister Maureen Therese on the value of the rosary. Our Lady herself introduced the rosary through Saint Dominic. On tlie first Sunday of October, 1571, a sea battle took place at Lepaiito. Through the rosary the Moslems were defeated. This prompted Pope Pius V to institute Oct. 7 as the Feast of the Most Holy Rosary. Sister went on to say that the rcsary is like a chain that draws us to Mary ' s Son. Real miracles of grace have occurred through it. Death-bed conversions have been made, bringing many souls to God. Highly indulgenced by the Church, the rosary brings us closer to eternal happiness. Sister quoted Reverend Patrick Peyton, CSC. The family that prays together, stays together. Through the rosary the family is united in prayer. It is a means of communicating with Our Blessed Mother and making the family stronger. This is the month of the Most Holy Rosary. Will you be com- municating with Heaven? Mass - Soul Tonic Do you ever feel down in the dumps or mi. ed up about every- thing? Does schoolwork bother you no end? Do you wish your parents would give you a break? Apparently your life needs a quick pepper-uppei! And that doesn ' t mean a new dress or an old car. You need a new meaning to your life — something that will make you feel good inside. Unlike students in other schools, v.e have the answer right here at CO. Every day we have the opportunity to be with Christ at 7:30 in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Maybe you can ' t make it every day. Perhaps you can just make it once a week. But cer- tainly this would put a new light into your life. Council Commentory Ecumeni- cal Council re- opened Sept. 29. over 40 delegate o b - servers were present. These L observers, 12 of whom rep- Anne , , J. V, resented the Orthodox Church while the other 34 represented the Protestant religions, play a great part in the Council. It is true that they have no vote in the Council, but their opinions are gravely asked for and considered. Although the Church cannot unbend in doc- trinal matters, she is making every effort to bring all Chris- tians to a closer unity. Delegates who have attended Vatican II are grateful for the complete confidence which was by Anne Sommers When the shown them. Professor Nichols, a Presbyterian, stated We were welcomed like brothers in Christ and given with com- plete confidence the means of following the debates and of multiplying contacts with the Council Fathers. One of the delegates ex- claimed I hadn ' t realized any- thing like this existed. I thought the Roman Catholic Church was a very closed, com placent sectai-ian body that had nothing to learn from anybody else. I now know this is no longer accurate, if it ever was. These are the reactions of the delegates to the Council, but where did they get their false ideas? From YOU! Now that Christian understanding, if not unity, is imminent, don ' t you have a responsibility to your neighbor? The Council seems to think vou do. Be A Turtle -Taster Ha e you ever been watching TV and suddenly craved some- thing that ' s chocolate, chewy, and packed with nuts ? ' Most every- one has. That ' s why it ' s so easy to sell Seaway Turtles. They practically sell themselves. It ' s a bet that if you just show people a Seaway Chocolate Turtle, one look at its creamy, rich chocolate texture will make them drool for a bite. So give them a sample. That look of sheer delight and pleasure when they swallow their first mouthful will tell you that you ' ve got a customer. Chances are he ' ll buy two. You ' ll not only earn yourself a fabulous prize, but you ' ll help your school as well. You ' ll gain friends for life because the next time they get that craving they ' ll bite into a scrumptious Seaway Chocolate.

This energetic man has pursued the rather unique hobby of thermo- d Tiamics, and currently holds a radio ham operator ' s license. A native of Fort Wayne, Mr. Burns attended Saint Patrick Grade School. In his high school years at Central, his time was taken up in studies, interest in science, and in the various school clubs. Two of his four-year hitch in the Navy were spent in the Southwest Pacific area. He has continued his interest in the armed forces. In 1962 Mr. Burns received a citation from the Na- val Recruiting Office, Through your public spirited co-operation with the Navy Recruiting Serv- ice, you have contributed im- measurably in furthering the excellent relations between the United States Navy and the peo- ple of your community. The hereditary influence of politics is evident in the Burns family. The Mayor ' s father held office in the city council for three terms in the 1920 ' s. Mr. Burns himself began his political ca- reer in the city counc il after his discharge from the Navy in 1947. During this period he was employed as personnel manager 4 CCers Attend UF Conference Newspaper editors and staff members from the city ' s junior and senior high schools attended a United Fund Press Conference at Foellinger Center last week. CC ' s representatives were Ken Auer, Patricia Hartman, Helen Reimers and Henry Reitzug. Mr. Lloyd Beatty, United Fund chairman, explained what United Fund does for Fort Wayne. The press conference was opened by Mr. Lester Grile, superintendent of schools, with remarks about the newspaper ' s responsibilities to inform its readers about United Fund. After the question-answer pe- riod, students were given an opportunity to see a few of the agencies at work. by the Joslyn Steel Company. In 1960 he was elected to the office of Mayor. His term is one of arduous efforts to end the city ' s vice. The Mayor said, Vice grows in uncontrolled youth, vice grows because of bad influence. With the pollution of the city ' s youth, the moral standards of Fort Wayne go down. Considering youth as the fu- ture of Fort Wayne. His Honor advised the teenagers to be in- terested in their government and to learn its mode and mechanics. The meetings of the city council and of the Safety Committee are always open to the public. Mr. Burns commented, Unfortu- nately, the voters of Fort Wayne often do not find the time to at- tend these law-making sessions. Government makes this nation. Laws must be respected if the human rights of all people are to be respected. Mayor Burns concluded, If the youth of today is to be the citizen of tomorrow, let him pre- pare.

The NASA space projects are to be illustrated by authentic space models. A spacemobile, which is a specially designed panel truck, carries the equipment and materials utilized in space science lecture-demon- strations. A typical demonstration will answer five basic questions: What is a satellite? How does it get into orbit? What keeps it in orbit ? What good is it and what does it do ? What are the present activities of the NASA, the results of these programs, and plans for the future? After Game Dance Benefits School The Central Catholic after- game dances, which are regu- larly attended by hundreds of students, will be continued this year. These dances were originated 15 years ago by Bishop Noll to provide a wholesome and super- vised recreation period after the football and basketball games. In this way, he hoped to keep teenagers off the streets and out of trouble. Shortly thereafter, the CYO offered to sponsor the dances and the organization did so until two years ago when Central Catholic took them over. The dances are generally held at the National Guard Armory or in the CC gym. Admission is 50 cents. The profits are used to better furnish and equip the school. 29
