Athletics are just a part of your
education. In athletics you learn
obedience and reverence. You
learn to play the game according to

your school, your team, your op-

be a good man unless these char

for and obedience to Gods rules in
fulfilling your purposes in life are
essential for success"
The Bishop observed that in

lie newspapers have gained most
encouragingly in circulation, and
they have increased impressively
their effectiveness and prestige.
Walsh told journalists from 20
countries that this growth has had
a lot to do with the fact tina; the
secular press in the United States
is devoting more space to Catholic
news than ever before. Large sec
ular newspapers are printing the
complete texts of Papal Encycllcals
and pronouncements now he said,
simply because the Catholic press
pioneered in this field and demon
strated the high news value of
these sometimes lengthy docu-
ments.
Concluding his report, Walsh
said the individual Catholic pa
pers in the United States are still
growing in circulation, revenue and
influence as they have for some
80 years. They are also increasing
in number, and they are providing
the Catholic Church in the United
States with an auxiliary that is con-
tinuing TO increase in effective
ness"

Converts TO the Church in the
Diocese during 1854 totalIed 1924,
an increase of 241 converts over
1858.
This rapid growth is shown, too,
in the increase in the number of
students registered in diocesan
schools. There are 21,870 children
registered in our schools at the
present time. This figure repre-
sents an increase of 2,086 students
over the 1928 school year.
The growth of the Diocese was
further emphasized just last month
when Bishop Ready established
two new parishes to meet the needs
of the population gain in metro
politsn Columbus.
The new ST. Agnes parish was
established to serve the needs of
the Hilltop section Of Columbus.
Our Lady of Perpetual Help parish
was organized in Grove City.
Meanwhile, construction work is
we'll under way on two new di-
ocesan schools. Bishop Watterson
High School will be ready for the
freshman class in September Of
this year and when completed in
1855 will accommodate 900 stu
dents. AT the same time. construc-
tion is almost completed on the
new St Gabriel school which will
also be ready for occupancy this
fall.
This record growth is reflected
throughout the United States ae-
cordins to the figures in the new
Directory. The Church has grown
TO 3l,64S, 424 members, an in
crease Of I.223, 400 in the past
year. The figures inclvds the to-
tails for Hawaii and Alaska.
The new total represents a ten
year gain of s,228, ,723 over the
23.4l9,701 Catholics reported in

1944-1,O97,771 of them converts
to the Church.
The new directory shows new
highs in the number of priests
and parishes. AT the same time, 1t
indicates a record increase of some
10000 full-time students in Catho-
lie schools and IA per cent gain
in the number of lay teachers in
those schools.
The major structural change re-
corded in the Church in the United
States for the year is the erection

that the Catholic journalist. "a son
of the Church, eager to serve his
Mother" will ''unmask error, what
ever name it hides behind"

bishop Paul Marella, Papal Nuncio
to France. DR.. Friedrich Funder,
editor of Die Furche, Catholic

ent emeritus of the N,C.W.C. News

was the realization of a dream long
held by many veterans of Catholic

In his letter to Count Dalls
Tore, presiding officer, editor of
Osservatore Romano, and presi-
dent of the International Union of
the Catholic Press, Msgr Montini
said that because of the high mis-
sion entrusted to it, the Catholic
press must be absolutely in the
service of the Church, and it must
be an instrument of quality and
technically valuable press.
He said that if the Church asks
first a proof of real valor from the
Catholic press, it is because of the
irreplaceable service that the
Church expects from those of her
sons whose mission is to serve and
enliqhten public opinion.
