The Most Reverend T. AUSTIN MURPHY Auxiliary Bishop of Baltimore E.a . z^ ' 8 ■^■^ ^ ' ^ If Archbishop Shehan sets the pace, his auxili- ary. Bishop Murphy, is beside him in their pro- gram of profound charity and selfless dedication to the welfare of the Catholics of the archdiocese. Closely connected with the hierarchy in the fields of education are Monsignor Donahue and Father Roman. With almost every issue of the Catholic Review, we read of important new steps being taken to improve, broaden, and vitalize instruc- tion in the Baltimore parochial schools. — SM " John Neumann has gone up into heaven, " concludes Peggi Banner. Tom Bosley, Steve Sheeler, Marshall Kinsley, Gary Wolfsheimer, Dick Miller, Mark Kram, and Mike Gallagher approve as the dress rehearsal for the October assembly honoring the Beatification of Bishop Neumann ends satisfactorily. Bishop Neuman is the saintly founder of the Sisters of St. Francis who staff Towson Catholic and many schools and hospitals. ,C^?lN. , > ** " " ' f^ "
