Careful and responsible think- rs refer to racism as the core of many of our problems today," he aid. "What we do about it is the Itimate test of our vaunted dem- cratic way of life. "The unfinished business of the Emancipation Proclamation demands that we remove the lasl 'estiges of injustice, legal inequality and discrimination from iur communities, a i schools and other institutions. We shall not relax in thai task until our work is completed." The cardinal quoted from the encyclical letter, "Mater et Ma jstra," of Pope John XXIII: "II not enough merely to publicize a social doctrine. It has to be translated into action." J.

HlRli School. Vew Cycle 3pens For Polar Birds WASHINGTON As winter loses in on the North, summer opening a new cycle in the fe of Antarctica's engaging little lowns, the Adelies. The breeding season for these )enguins is well under way on the ocky headlands of the south polar ontinent. Soon chicks will be leav- ng their sheltered nests to learn he skills and hazards of survival. More than 17 species of pen- uins live in the Southern Hemi- phere, says the National Geogra- Society.

Like other penguins, the Adelies Pygoscelis adeliae) have black and white feathers. The formal, dress shirt and tails effect makes their antics all the funnier. They have no fear of man. Rather, they seem fascinated by the strange giants who have invaded heir domain. Insatiably curious Adelies are forever underfoot when construction or other activities are going on.

Any sound, from hammering to singing, attracts them by scores One expedition found that tooting a cornet aboard ship would brini long line of birds wobbling up the gangplank.

Even out of water, Ade- lies can skim across ice on their bellies faster than a man on skis.

Breeding Habits Adelie adults grow to about 14 inches, and may from 5 to 18 pounds. Long fasts cause variations, especially during the nesting season. In about mid-October, Antarctic pilots see dark lines of penguins moving across coastal ice toward mainland nest sites. By mid-November, the nests have been built of pebbles uncovered by spring thaws, and eggs are being laid, two to a couple. The father starts the incubation, while mother goes off on a sea vacation to feed in preparation for her turn on the nest.

After the young have hatched, both' parents share in covering and feeding them. In late January and early February, the fledglings are on their own. They learn to hop, swim, and skim for the trip to northern ice floes, where they winter. Naturalists studying south polar fauna have learned that Adelies seem to keep the same mate and nesting spot for life. In recent years, a research project of the United States Antarctic program proved that Adelies recognize and rejoin mates by voice identification.
