Bishops Letter
Bishop McAuliffe's letter follows:
Dear Beloved:
Schools for Adults will open In
various cities Of the Diocese this
coming week. The enthusiasm
from the Adult School In Hart
ford last year spread throughout
the diocese. It reaveled the deep
love and interest OF our people In
their holy religion.
These schools have o program Of
instruction that cannot fail to
interest the people. The Eubjects
treated are fundamental, the In.
structors capable and the response
should be whole-hearted.
The work OF the Confraternity
OF Christian Doctrine enjoys the
blessing Of Almighty God, the ben-
ediction OF the Holy Father and
the encouragement Of the Church.
We should be very happy that In
terest In the Church's teaching Is
perennial, never more sought after
than In the persent day, never
more effectual than when treating
modern problems. We need an
enlightened laity, strong, vigorous,
unafraid, capable Of explaining
the Faith and translating Its prin-
cipleS into action.
Among the further Developments
Of the Confidently Is the OPEN
Ing Of five catechetical institutes
where experienced priests will In
struct laymen and women In the
methods Of teaching Christian
Doctrine. We are In need of cap
able teachers for our week day In
structions, Sunday and vacation
schools. They can accomplish
much In the way Of real Catholic
Action. We hope for abiding fruit
from the work OF these Institutes.
Praying God to bless this great
work, Its leaders and oil the faith
full, ! am
Sincerely yours In Christ,
Maurice r. McAuliffe,
Bishop Of Hartford

Tempe Bulldogs
Battle Washington

Bulldogs of the Arizona State
Teachers College at Tempe battled
the Flying Cardinals of the
Catholic University from Washing
ton, D. c., to scoreless deadlock
in the annual Sun Bowl game New
Years Day on Kidd Field.
Before a crowd of 1900 fans
Tempe lost because Of "breaks"
which went against them, revers-
ing the usual order of things for
the Bulldogs who during the regu-
lar campaign capitalized On the
errors of their foes to record vic
tories.
Several times the Bulldogs start
ed driving goalward, only to be
thawarted by their own mistakes,
or the mighty defense staged by
the heavier Cardinals. Fumbles-
four of them-were disastrous to
the Tempe victory cause.
Although there was no scoring,
the game held plenty of thrills for
the carnival gathering. H r d
smashing tackles brought runners
to earth after they had twisted
and squirmed their way trying to
get into the open.
Tempe lost 65 yards on penal
ties, while Catholics setbacks to-
tailed so. At times the game was
plenty rough for both clubs were
playing hard, smashing ball that
sent leather toters to the ground
