Urges Students
To Consider
Political Careers

WORCESTER, Mass. - NC) -
u. S. Sen. John F. Kennedy of
Massachusetts has called upon
students to center the field of
politics at some stage in your ca
reer."
Speaking at Clark University,
the Senator observed that poll
tics has become one Of our most
neglected. our most abused and
our most ignored professions

"chief practitioners are rarely
well or favorably known" he add
ed.
mo education, except finding
your way around a smoke-filled
room, is considered necessary for
political success" he continued.
Sen. Kennedy reminded the
students that the mutual suspi-
cion between scholar and poll
tician did not always exist.
." would ask you who look
with disdsin and disfavor upon
the possibilities of q political
career, TO remember that our
nations first great politicians
were additionally Jul ablesf,
most respected, most talented
leaders," he said.
They were men, the Senator
commented, who moved from
one field to another with amazing
versatility and vitality"
He reminded students willing
to enter the abused and neglect
ed profession of politics that the
nation stands in serious need of
the fruits of their education.
He emphasized that the need
is not for political scholars
whose education has been so spe-
cialized as to exclude them from
participation in current events.
"What we need are men who can
ride easily over broad fields of
knowledge and recognize the mu-
tual endence of our two
worlds" he concluded.

attack Effort
To Force Schism

HONG KONG - (NC) - Red
China's effort to force the
Church there into schism has
been openly attacked by three
priests, according to the Peoples
Daily of Picking.
The communist newspaper re-
ported that the unidentified
priests declared at a Catholic
meeting in Foochow that the
faithful in China must remain
united with the Holy See. The
three also denounced the Patrio-
tic Association of Chinese Cath
olics.
The so-called patriotic associa-
ton was set up at a Red-sponsor-
ed conference in Picking last
summer against the strong OPP
position of bishops and priests.
