[Hermann the Cherusker]

They didn't remove the feast. They simply took the proper (the prayers, chants, and readings) that had been in use for 1200+ years and tossed them in the trash can because "they knew better" what these things should really be. Same thing done on a grander scale in the later "reforms" of the liturgy in 1955, 1962, 1965, and 1970.

Got it. Thanks for explaining. And would this possibly be a trial run at the NO "reforms" in the 1960's? More to the point, can anyone reign in Mahony? :-)
