BETHLEHEM — Manger Square with the entrance to the Basilica of the Nativity, where the L™-rite Patriarch Alberto Gori, O.F.M., will lead pilgrims on Christmas Eve. (NC Photos) ‘Adeste Fidelis’ One of our earliest carols is “O Come All Ye Faithful,” translated from the Latin, “Adeste Fidelis.” This is said to have been written by Bona Ventura, Bishop of Albano, who was born near Florence in the Tuscany district of Central Italy in 1221. The birthplace of the true carol was Italy and the orig inator is said to have been St. Francis of Assisi. Although he never wrote a carol him self, his comrades carried out his ideas and many frag ments of carols have been traced to the Italian monk writer Jacopone. Soccer Players At Belmont Win Championship Belmont—Averaging 2.6 goals per match, the Belmont Abbey College soccer team finished its 1967 season with 10 wins, cinch ing the NAIA Area 5 (Southern) Championship.

Coach Dudko credited the de fensive playing of backs Luis Rodriguez, Gary Lennon and Tom Dillon with holding down opponent scoring opportunities. “Without their excellent de fense, we could not have had such a fine season,” he indicated. Pope Paul Proclaims Jan. 1 a Day of Peace Vatican City—Pope Paul VI has made this coming Jan. 1 a Day of Peace for Catholics and has urged all men of good will to celebrate it every year “as if it were their own initiative.” Catholics will have “the duty of observing” the Day of Peace with “the religious and moral expressions of the Christian faith,” the Pope said. He expressed the hope that “the exaltation of the ideal of peace may not favor the coward ice of those who fear it may be their duty to give their life for the service of their own country and of their own brothers when these are engaged in the defense of justice and liberty, and who seek only a flight from their re sponsibility.” AT A PRESS conference ar ranged by the Holy See, an offi cial of the Papal Secretariat of State asserted that this could not be taken as a condemnation of conscientious objection. The offi cial, Msgr. Paul Poupard, referred to Paragraph 79 of the Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World, which encourages laws providing for “those who for reasons of conscience refuse to bear arms.” The Pope further declared: “Peace is not pacifism. It does not mask a base and slothful concept of life but it proclaims .the highest and most univer sal values of life: truth, justice, freedom, love.” MAURICE CARDINAL ROY of Quebec, president of the Pontifi cal Commission cm Justice and Peace, said at the same press con ference that pacifism “does not carry the positive element of re construction.” He said the Pope INDUSTRIAL COMMERCIAL RESIDENTIAL BONMD 95J SEICLE AVENUE - CHARLOTTE NORTH CAROLINA |scarborough| I and hargett!

Poupard observed that “everybody distinguishes be tween pacifism and conscien tious objection.”) The Pope’s exhortations were contained in a 2,000-word mes- - sage dated Dec. 8 and made pub lic one week later, after copies of it had been sent ito various international organizations and heads of state. The first and somewhat longer part of the message was ad dressed “to all men of good will,” including governments, interna tional organisms, religious insti tutions and “youth, whose per spicacity regarding the new paths of civilization ... is more lively.” The second and final part was addressed to the bishops and the faithful of the Catholic Church.
