Liturgical Abuses

They covered up the statues in the chapel of my college.
26. The practice of covering the crosses and images in the church may be observed if the episcopal conference should so decide. The crosses are to be covered until the end of the celebration of the Lord's passion on Good Friday. Images are to remain covered until the beginning of the Easter Vigil.[30]

They also sang Alleluia on the the feast of St. Scholastica.
18. Likewise, from the beginning of Lent until the Paschal Vigil, "Alleluia" is to be omitted in all celebrations, even on solemnities and feasts.[21]

So, I am not quite sure by your post. Are the statues suppose to be covered?

So, before the gospel we are not supposed to be singing Alleluia?
