p0lice) agents were reportedly try
ing to exhort confessions from
the prisoners.
The trial of a we'll known Zagreb
priest, Father Mijoslav Shkvorac,
S. J., before the criminal court in
that city was one of the first
steps in the renewed anti-Catholic
drive.
Father Shkvorae, according 70
reports, was sentenced TO 80
months in jail on the basis of
testimony by o.z.N.A. informers.
The agents testified that they had
pretended to be prseticing Ca
fholics and had been going TO
confession TO the priest for some
time. In court, fwo OF fhe inform
srs produced notes of sermons
they claimed Father Shkvcrae
had preached.
The Jesuit priest answered that
the notes misquoted what he had
said. He admitted saying, however
that the recent increase in divorce
in Zagreb was an alien develop
ment in Catholic Croatia and had
been imported from Serbia.
Qn predominantly Orthodox Ser.
bia the Orthodox Church has al,
ways permitted divorce. The law
now grants civil divorces through
out Yugoslavia)
Father Shkorvac declared that
contrary to the public prosecutors
allegations, he had not intended
that his criticism of the divorce
laws should create i'll feeling be
tween Croats and Serbs.
The priest also admitted saying
that the "Marxist-Leninist sclen
tific philosophy of life" is not al
all scientific according to moderr
standards of research. The judge
told him that any criticism of Marx
ist-Leninist doctrine by "reac
tionary Jesuit" must have beer
aimed at undermining the coun
try's new social order.
Real reason for fhs trial, se'
cording 10 reports from Catholic
circles In Zasrsh, was Father
Shkvorse's great success IS
Lenten speaker in thar city this
year. His repeated assertions
fhst the Church has . better So
luton for social and economic
problems than the communists,
reports stated, had tremendous
effect Of Zagreh's Catholics.
Besides Father Shkvorac, report
said, four other Croatian priest
have been arrested.

Houston Cardinal
All Club Dairy
Members Meet

The monthly meeting of the
Houston Cardinal Dairy boys was
held at the home of Raymond and
Kenney Marvel. We discussed diff
ferent cows of Rays fathers herd.
Raymond showed us Rosie, his
Jersey, and reported she was pro-
ducing about 20 lbs. of milk per
day. Since Rosie freshened at the
age of l yr., months, we felt this
was a pretty good report.
Kenney showed us his Jersey
calf and a nice one she is, too. She
is daughter of "Tristram Spark
ing Challenger" and should GER
tainly do well at the fair this year
We then judged the Charles
Pfizer contest and discussed sum-
mer meetings. 1t was decided that
we would go to different farms
and practice judging instead of
holding indoor meetings. We hope
to go to George Simpsons Del
shire Farm and judge some of his
fine Ayrshires in May.
Delicious refreshments were
served and the meeting adjourned.
