Mass in English?

November 27, 1964, Twin City News-Record
So far, this week has been all about 1964.  Gee there was a lot going on that year.  Among other things- Gulf of Tonkin, Johnson elected, a little thing called The Beatles...Vatican II dictated that celebrants would now incorporate English into the Mass.  Not so surprising for we students at area Catholic schools- we'd been hearing about it for awhile, but I cannot imagine the shock and dismay that regular parishioners must have felt when first encountering this strange intrusion into the traditional Latin Mass.
