Church's attitude to conscience on birth control ADELAIDE. — Sincere Catholics who are conscientiously unable to

accept Pope Paul's teaching on birth control "have certainly not cut themselves off from the Church," Archbishop Gleeson said last week.

-

About 600 people attended the rock Mass at Kellebrerrin at which there were, with the Archbishop, five concelebrants — Monsignor Cameron, Fathers Cooney ( York ), P. G. J. O'Reilly, Chris Flamer (Corrigin) and O'Malley ( Kellerberrin ). T here were 15 minutes of folk hymn singing before the Mass and this went very well. The weather was suitable and at the Mass there was a wide range of parishioners from Southern Cross to Guildford, Corrigin to Mukinbuc-iin and Subiaco. The Mass was a Holy Year function. A barbecue luncheon was :followed by sports for the children.

High school pupils! start early for prayer sessions

•lAt

NEW YORK (NC). — A group of students at James Caldwell High School here are coming to school early, looking for an empty room and holding prayer sessions before the start of the school day. according to But, Jane Nlazzocchi, 16, one of the students, they would like to get the approval of the board of education "so we don't have to sneak around." The students, who belong to various faiths, have asked the board to set some classrooms aside for student prayer meetings and Bible classes but board members are undecided on the matter because of the legal ramifications. Shirley Coombs, the board president, believes the practice may be illegal in view of the U.S. Supreme Court's 1963 school prayer decision. But she said the board would look into it. Concern has been expressed that other relig-

ious bodies may wish to use school property for meetings if the students are permitted to do so. Miss Mazzocchi said that there were "a number of Bible study groups in the school" and that all "would like to get together and pray. "It's really important to us." She estimated that more than 100 students would take part in the pre-school prayers if the programme could be put on a structured basis.

Our Historic Link

Some pioneer laity of the Church A number of members of the pioneer laity have not yet come into our survey of the early history of the Catholic Western in Church Australia.

These people had a definite and sometimes lengthy part to play in the various events contemporary with the 26-year long episcopate of John Brady, pioneer Bishop in this State. Bishop Brady spent only seven years of this time actually directing his diocese. Consequently the still existing first Cathedral in Perth, originally named St. John's, forms our continuing historic link with that era and its people. Not the most important by far of the 1846 missionary party, but, certainly one of the most flamboyant members was the Roman school-master, Nicola Caporelli.

Education File I LiBRARY NOTES: SUBJECT HEADINGS Where a school adopts the Dictionary Catalogues, it is essential that the librarian uses a standard list of subject headings so that she is consistent in her selected headings; otherwise pupils will not be able to discover all the resources on the same subject. Alternative headings are given in reputable lists, and she must select the one most suitted to her particular school, and eschew all others. Most schools (primary and secondary) using standard lists employ "Sears List of Subject Headings." It is necessary from time to time to add new headings and subheadings as the need arises. For the sake of uniformity, it behoves the librarian to consult the "Education Library Service Bulletin," published bi-monthly by Library Services Branch of the Education Department. At intervals, lists of "Additions and Alterations to Sears" appear. How to insert headings is explained in the introduction to Sears List of Subject Headings.

Recognition of Red grab in Baltic States; "benefits" Sir,

The Diocesan Pastoral Council was attacked in your last issue for not protesting to the Australian Government about its diplomatic recognition of the Baltic States as part of the Soviet. I feel that your correspondent is owed some explanation since the report of the Council was necessarily brief.

As a member of the Council I could not support the protest motion because I was not sure about the matter.

A Polish friend of mine, who escaped from Poland after some of his friends were shot by the Communists, had told me that he thought recognition was a good thing because it would help to put Australia in contact with the puppet governments of those countries, increase communications and perhaps give us some genuine Ermolenkos (his remarchance in the next World ks).

The decision of the Australian Soccer Federation that Australia be represented in the next Olympic soccer tournament is another example of the progressive attitude of the Australian administration in that sport. Preliminary games will be played late next year and the Olympic finals proper will be played at the 1976 Montreal Olympics. Since Australia's only previous appearance in Olympic Games soccer — in the 1956 Melbourne Games — the code has made giant strides in Australia and the decision to compete again can only ad impetus to the rate of progress. As the federation secretary, Mr. Brian Le Fevre said, this will not only help to promote the game throughout Australia, but could well strengthen Australia's
