Mrs. Heniry GJ. Dalton, clvics and Catholic Actio'n group chairman, requested that reserva- tions bie made for the Day of Retreat at the Cenacle 'OR March 9. The speaker of the afternoon, the Rev., Martin Carrabine, S. J., was a man whose kindly personallty and talk proved to be very interesting to lits heparers. Runnlng through his com-n.. nients on "Catholic Interstudent Cath-. ollc Action," were- strongly thought- provoking threads of facts and ideas, which although they were, of course,, for members of the Cat4iolic church, could fittjngly be appiied to problems of any Christian chureh. In the world of today with Its many underlying cur- rents and strange zuovements and changes, the spealcer's plea flot only to profess ône's rligion but to practice. it, to live lt, and to flght for it, and to .spreadt it, was in reality a plea to Catholics, but was a plea that could be made as well to ail Christians. Certain enemies of his church today, atheism, paganisem, non-belief of any kind, mate- rialism, kreed, ariti-chureh propaganda,. are fighting against ail churches. Honest, straightforward, tolerant. * broad in is vlewpoint, and alive to undercurrents rffe today, he .hirnqelf, and his remarks were stimulating. 11 S"Catholic Action is not new, but àt is new ln its application, new ln its press- ing need," Father Carrabine told hiis audience.
