,~ r-11•, 0 FOR ALL AGES Li•ttf e· Mex·co Set Up in USO Course By DICK ~'INN A two-week Mexican-Ameri- ca~ cultural workshop at the University of San Diego isn't !11aking experts, but it is open- mg new avenues of under- standing, building confidence and giving fresh insight to a varied group of students. T h e enrollment of 35 in- cludes businessmen, teachers social workers, rie~ts, nun~ and college undergr,iduates. Ages r a n g e from the late teens through the fortids. They all have one hmg in common, explains Sister Irene Lawrence, chairman of the school's sociology department, which gives the workshop. Chit-Chat in Spanish "They all want to under- stand Mexican-Americans bet- ter," says the rapidly talking, energetic mn between sips of soft drink in the women's din- ing hall. At the nex table, the heter- ogrn ous cl , in groups of two a11d three chit-chats in Spanish dur1ng a break in the schedule. "They're supposed to speak in Spanish al I lhc time," she says. Most of the enrollees, she p o i n t s out, are Caucasians who deal with Mexican-Ameri- cans in their work. A few of Mexican descent, want to brush up on aspects of their culture. Jointl. SJ>onsored The workshop, jointly spon- sored by USD and the Mexi- can-1\merican community, be- gan: last Mo n d a y and con- clude. Friday. Sessions are from 8 a.m, to 4 :30 p.m. daily. Tuition is $150. The. course is demanding: ~nten 1ve conversational Span- ish, ~oc1ology with emphasis on Mexican Americans and field experience with s~rvice agencies working with minori- ty groups. Students receive d Iv lec- tures on a sociological analy- sis of Mexican-American cul- t,'.lre, providing a background for understanding personality development and family situa- tions. Professionals in Class The field experience com- bines close contact with Mexi- can-Americans and allows the students, many of whom are professionals, to use the i r skills in worthwhile projects. For example, Don Carlisle, 30, a county welfare worker, 1 e c t u r e s on welfare proce- dures to the star of Neighbor- hood House.. C a r I i s 1 e, who ordinarily works with abused children in Southeast San Diego, says: "You need · to know their culture as well as their lan- guage to work with them.''

Sandy Nathan, 20, a bright- eyed, colorfully dressed SD senior, says sh.e joined the workshop to broaden her edu- cation. A sociology student, (Cont. on Page B-3, Col. 6)

Saturday, August 9, 1969 ---- Bishop Quinn App i dTo Interim Post (Continued) been ordained f r at least 10 years.'' The priests of the San Diego Diocese have made no secret or the f~ct that they would like to have a bishop chosen from their own ranks. PRIESTS POLLED A poll taken among the 400 priests in the dioce~e in June. soon after announcement of Archbi~hop Furey·s new ap- pointment, made this clear. In this poll, the priests select- ed their :ix nominees for bishop of San Diego. They were Bishop Quinn, The Very Rev. John Baer, president of the Universi- ty of San Diego College for ;\!en; the Rt. Rev. Msgr James T. Booth, pastor of Mission San Diego de Alcala; The Very Rev. l. Brent Egan, chancellor of the diocese, the Rev. Donald R. Kulleck, pastor of Our Lady of Angels parish, and ihe Rev. Jo- seph , Stadler. pastor of St. Charles parish, Imperial Beach. In a second poll, the priests chose their first three selections from among the six. Only four persons, all high officials in the church, know these names. :-IAMESFORW RDED The priests' choices were for- war~ed to the 110st Rev. Msgr. Lmg1 Ra unondi. apostolic dele- gate in Washington, D.C. Bishop Quinn said yesterday he thinks the priests' desire to have a bishop from within the diocese "will be taken into ac- count in making the final decision." As administrator, rather than bishop, said Bishop Quinn he will not be expected to "~ake any substantive changes in the condition of the diocese" or "make farreaching and irrevoc- able decisions." He is not empowered to create !1ew parishes or suppress par- ishes, to appoint pastors or to ordain candidates for the priest- hood without special authoriza- tion. ONE OF YOITh'GEST Bishop Quinn became one of the nation's youngest bishops when he was consecrated in cer- emonie in St. Joseph's Cathe- dral on Dec. 12, 1967. It was the first c~nsecration in the city of San Diego and Bishop Quinn who was born in Riverside wa; the first man born in the di~ese lo become a bishop of the diocese. Announcement of his selection as a bishop, to serve here as auxiliary bi hop, was made Oct. 25, 1967. It was announced by Pope Paul VI in Rome and by Bishop Furey durin breakfast in the dining room of Immacu- late Heart Seminary, Alcala · Park. Young seminarians responded to the news with a 10-mmute ovation for the bishop-elect, who was rector of the seminary. Bishop Furey hailed the choice as in keeping with the church's trend to have as leaders •·young people hep to what's going on. '' At that time, Bishop Furey ad refusrd to speculate on h ther B1 op Qiimn a mg groomed a future b1 hop of San Diego. He notE-d, howev- r; a trend to place a b1 hop ith cvcral years' experience in the top pot in a diocese. Bishop Furey was auxiliary ishop or Philadelphia before omm to San Diego,

deepest and most profoundest sense the word means a per- son with a world per pective, a person who can outgrow his parochialism and have a con- cern for life in ,ts totality." Feelings Expres ed The pastor noted that Mul- vaney had described Bishop Furcv as "warm,"' and l\Ia- ~ine l\1a1. Gen. Lowell E. Eng- lish, had called him "magnifi- cent." and that his fellow cler- gymen in the diocrsc gave him the simple accolade - a prie~l's priest. "The community needs the spirit of unity and ecumenici- ty which you imparted to it." h said. lhe same spirit you will take to your brethren in San Antonio. Responsibility Cited •·we w i s h you continued success; we assure you of our pravers in whatever difficul- ties you will encounter, for we understand you are going to an extremely difficult respon- sibility "The Lord bless ·ou and keep you and cause His Face to shme upon you.., 'Outstandi\Jg Works' Resolutions from the cit~·, county. state and federal gov- ernments also poured forth in recognition 0£ Bishop Furey's outstanding >1ork~ in the San Diego diocese during the past six years.
