PRIEST ONE OF THE BIG' MEN OF TS.
P HILADELPHIA ( NC). — One of the biggest producers in Hollywood — from the standpoint of working with top stars — is a Catholic priest.
He is Paulist Father Ellwood Kieser, whose "Insight" programme Is seen on some 320 television stations across the country and on prime time in 11 different countries. A major figure in communications in the Church, the priest did not set out to be a television producer or film-maker; in fact, he didn't decide to accept his vocation as a priest until six years after he realised he had it.
VOCATION DECISION
At high school. his major activity was debating. It wasn't until he got to university that he became involved with communications. It was at the end of university that he decided to become a priest. "God told me I had a Religious vocation when I was a high school sophomore," he said, "but I didn't listen until was a senior in college."
In choosing the priesthood, Father Kiesler also chose an order whose mission it is to "serve God by serving those outside their Church." He entered the novitiate of the Paulist Fathers.
INQUIRY CLASS After ordination- he began in New York the work which was to culminate in his entrance into the communications media. That was an inquiry class for non-Catholics, which caught on like wildfire. The first year, more than 1,000 people attended the five-nights-aweek classes; the second year, the number rose to 1,500. Father Kieser reasoned that if 1,500 people came to inquiry classes, there must be thousands more who wanted to know but couldn't come. So in 1960 the inquiry classes were filmed and became a television series.
Father Kieser says now: "It was terrible television — all audio and didactic — just me lecturing for 28 minutes against a magnetic blackboard. "Still, we drew 300 letters a week, so we knew we had a good thing going."
THE COLD WAR
In 1962, the format was changed to documentary, largely, about the theology of the Cold War, and in 1963 the programme became a dramatic series. "There are many conflicts in the 20th Century," Father Kieser observed, "but the basic ones are theological. "We have discovered that theological conflicts make great dramas."
SALARIES DONATED
He has also discovered that such stars as Jack Klugman, Dorothy Malone, Efram Zimbalist Jr., Jane Wyman, Martin Sheen, Carrol O'Connor, Brian Keith, Ricardo Montalban, Diane Muldaur, John Forsythe and
Steve Forrest are happy to work for minimum wages and then donate their salaries back to the programme. " 'Insight' gives many of these actors a chance to play roles they wouldnot get a chance to play otherwise," the priest explained. 'We're presenting raw which probes drama man's most profound problems and suggests Christian solutions. "We're portraying modern man, confused within and challenged from without, seeking his own soul and, ultimately. God." Each new programme, Father Kieser said, meant that 150 million people "are invited into a Godcentred universe to take a look around. "We're trying to contribute through the medium of television, to a humanistic society in which man's rights are acknowledged, his freedom fostered, his dignity restored," he said.

VATICAN CITY (NC).—No-one can ever overcome the harm done by an unparalleled spread of "unrestrained licence" in mass media, Pope Paul VI told communicators at a meeting here.
He urged the consultors of the Pontificial Commission for Social Communications, which met March last week to step up efforts to use mass media, and especially audia-visual techinques in spreading Christ's message. "The boldness of those who misuse mass media can never be deplored enough," he told the experts. "Neither can the damage done to today's society and tomorrow's ever be adequately repaired." The Pope claimed that it would be difficult to find a parallel to the present decline in public morality in other historical epochs.
"All of this carries with it the duty and the urgency of intensifying efforts for a good pastoral use of Press, radio, film, television and other types ot entet tainment," the Pope said. "We must, multiply initiatives and collaboration on all levels, especially in the audio-visual field which has been underutilised, as regards education in liturgy, catthechcsis and religious instruction." The "Pope called the decline in put* morality a "sad phenomenon that threatens to deprive individuals, families and society of their natural defences, their pure ideal and _their spiritual re' sources."

Cardinal Ursi, archbishop of one of Europe's noisiest, dirtiest and most unhealthy cities, asked priests, laity and Catholic associations to get behind the city's attempts to improve sanitation and health care. Noting that the city had registered 355 cases of viral hepatitis in the last two months, he pleaded in a written communique: "The issue of hygiene is not foreign to our religious feelings. "To the contrary, the call made by the Fifth Commandment, 'Thou shalt not kill,' demands that we not expose our own health or that of others to risks which cause or promote infections."

NOT CENTURIES-OLD
But when did the Prinknash monks first start making pots? Well, this isn't a centuries-old tradition; in fact it only goes back about 35 years to when the foundations were being laid for a modern monastery. Large deposits of rich clay were found on the site, and the monks decided to set up a small pottery workshop. Eventually the demand for their distinctive pottery grew so great that the monks could no longer cope with it themselves.
APPRENTICES They took in local lads as apprentices, and as the staff grew larger, it was obvious that they would have to move from their original workshop. So they built a fairsized modern factory which employs some 35 local people who work alongside the monks. Business and manufacturing methods are ultramodern and the four electric kilns which are in use twenty-four hours a
FOR CHARITY
But the factory is capable of nearly doubling this output, and, judging by the present demand for Prinknash ware, there will undoubtedly be a big increase in turnover in the next few years. What do the monks do with all the money they make from pottery business? A lot of it has been invested in the new plant and machinery, and, of course, the 40 members of the monastery need some money to live on. But in the true tradition of monks, the Brothers at Prinknash give all their surplus profits to charity.—From the BBC LONDON LETTER.
The Pope on the "Easter inheritance
VATICAN CITY (NC). — The inheritance gained by Christians from Easter is the chance to live always in the love of Jesus, Pope Paul told his weekly gener al audience. The Easter inheritance, Pope Paul said, was found in Christ's words at the Last Supper: "Live always in my love." "Who will make this phrase his own?" the Pope asked of the 8,000 at his May 19 general audience. "What a beginning, what steadfastness, what fullness and what happiness is contained in this phrase," the Pope declared. "This is our Easter inheritance — to remain in His strong, sincere, very alive and very virile love."

EXCOMMUNICATION
VATICAN CITY (NC).— Pope Paul VI told his weekly general audience here recently that "dissent, aversion, and even treason" are spreading in the Catholic Church.

"MANS ENEMIES" The Vatican and the Italian bishops-in the last few weeks have been conducting an anti-communist campaign. Quoting from the Gospel, the Pope said: "Man's enemies, Jesus said. 'shall be those of his own house.'" "How common and close to us this suffering is today," the Pope said. "At times our dearest friends, our most trusted colleagues, our brothers sitting at the same table are those who have turned against us.

Third Anglican province approves ordination of women to priesthood
DUNEDIN (NC). — New Zealand has become the third Anglican ( Episcopal) Church province to provide for the ordination of women to the priesthood. A general synod of the New Zealand Anglican dioceses voted overwhelmingly in favour of ordaining women. The move needed a two-thirds majority. The vote was 6-1 in favour by the bishops, 17-5 by clergy, and 23-2 by the laity. In 1971, with official approval, three women were ordained to the Anglican priesthood in Hong Kong with little controversy.
U.S. FURORE
But in the United States, a great furore erupted after 11 Episcopalian women were illegaly ordained in 1974. The U.S. Episcopal bishops declared that in their opinion the ordinations were "invalid and irregular," and filed charges against the bishops involved, but later dropped them. The U.S. Episcopalians are expected to vote on the ordination of women at their triennial convention later this year. Last year, the Anglican bishops of Canada
voted to permit ordination of women priests beginning on November 1 next. The Church in New Zealand has a number of women deacons eligible for ordination now, but none will be put forward for at least a year because of a synod rule that there must be a period of 12 months before the Bill comes into force. This is to permit the filing of appeals against the change on the ground that the proposal contravenes the doctrine or sacraments of the church.
APPROVAL IN IRELAND
The Catholic Church in New Zealand made no comment on the Anglican vote. The Church in Ireland's (Anglican) highest legislative body has overwhelmingly approved in principle the ordination of women to the priesthood. It did not, however, set any time at which such ordinations could begin. The U.S. Episcopalians are expected to vote on
the issue at their triennial convention later this year.
ARCHBISHOP'S PLEA
The move by the Church of Ireland followed a strong plea by Archbishop Alan Buchanan of Dublin in an address to the Church's general synod. Archbishop Buchanan said that the existence of "a medieval attitude" in the Christian Churches was the main stumbling block to the idea of women priests. The archbishop argued that he was making his plea on the basis of "simple justice' for women.
"NEW DIMENSION"
He said that he believed that the ordination of women would add a new dimension to a ministry, which was dominated by men. He also rejected theview of some Anglican, opposed to ordaining women, that a move of this kind would damage ecumenical relations, since the Catholic Church did not accept the ordination of women.

WHAT PARENTS SHOULD DO WHEN TEACHING THEIR CHILDREN ABOUT PRAYER
CHICAGO (NC).— A Catholic journalist has advised parents, in effect, to stop acting like children when teaching their offspring about prayer.
"Parents cannot whine "Granted, these are legitiPrayer, he says, should about getting up for church, mate uses of prayer. be seen as a conversation, curse the parking lot traffic, "But to the extent that rather than a supplication criticise the pastor's sermon they become robot uses, to some, "furrow-browed and expect their children to prayer life is being stunted." king." fall in love with the liturgy," writes James Breig in a new publication, "A Guide for Family Prayer." Mr. Breig is assistant editor of "The Evangelist," Albany diocesan newspaper, and author of a syndicated column on television carried by many Catholic newspapers.
LITURGY SYMBOLS Because much of the liturgy is structure, Breig says, Parents should talk to their Children about prayers and symbols before taking them to church. "Parents cannot walk cold into the church and expect the children to come away with anything more than a blurred memory of What happened," the author maintains. Mr. Breig says that parents should introduce private prayer at meals, bedtime and other times. They Should watch carefully the development of the children's prayer life, moving along as comprehension grows and begin home study of Scripture, liturgy and the sacraments, he says.
MOTIVES Moreover, parents should not "leave children with the Impression that they pray Only to 'get stuff,'" or to be relieved of something unPleasant, Breig writes.
"Without preaching there is no church" Dominican head
NEW YORK (NC).— "Preaching is what makes the Church. Without preaching, there is no Church," said Dominican Father John Burke, director of the Word of God Institute, Washington, D.C., at Niles (Illinois). Father Burke said that unlike the Protestant minister who relied on good preaching for his livelihood, "most Catholic priests don't feel a need to preach well." "No pressure is on him to do better once he is in a parish. "The ordinary seminarian knows that men who are ordained get by week by week and nothing is done, so he can get by quite well, no matter how good or bad a job he does," Father Burke said. "We work on the presumption that every ordained priest has to be a preacher. Maybe this is wrong."
Father Burke stressed the need for quality. "If people are not coming to church, they are not coming for a reason," he said. "They are voting with their feet. We compound the problem (of producing more bad preachers) by ineffective sermons. "I am convinced of the need for total revitalisation in the Church," Father Burke added. "Preaching is what makes the church. Without preaching, there is no Church. "The word of God is not being proclaimed," he said.

RECORD
Reversals in two grades Upset in netball Grade; big A and tie in finals of margins in A Reserve mixed _tennis pennant INININNese-ory,
A sensational grand finals day in the West Australian Catholic Lawn Tennis Association mixed pennants saw a reversal of the home-and-away games results in two grades and a tie in the B Grade between St. Denis' and Attadale. In the A Grade final, Queens Park (3), 7 sets 56 games,' defeated last year's champions in the grade, Queens Park (1), 5 sets 33 games, in an extremely close match. In the C Grade final, Attadale were too strong for an inexperienced Queens Park and defeated them, 9 sets 66 games to 3 sets 34 games. The A Grade match was an excellent game and extremely tense throughout. The men's and ladies' doubles were both halved at the first break and it was all even at 2 sets, 20 games each.
TURNiNG POINT The turning point in the match came in the first round of the mixed doubles when. R. Baux and K. Adams (Queens Park (3)) halved sets with P. and K. Messer Queens Park (1)) and T. Andrews and S. Raux won both sets against M. Brennan and M. Messer. At the end of the second round, Queens Park (3) led 5-41 to 3-32. Queens Park (1) retrieved the situation somewhat in the final round of matches but could win only two of the remaining four sets. As a restilt, Queens Park (3) went on to record a meritorious win.
NEAR DARKNESS There was a remarkable finish in near darkness in the B Grade final when Attadale won the final set in a tiebreaker to tie the match with St. Denis', the scores being 6 sets 59 games each. The me,n's and ladies' doubles were halved, in the latter matches both sets going to a tiebreaker. St. Denis' held a slender lead at this stage, 221 to 2-20. ' P. . St. John and A. Bourke (St. Denis') won both sets against C. Johnson and P. McLinden (Attadale).

However, R. Williamson and C. McConnaughty (Attadale) compromised by winning both sets against A. Mapson - and H. Ryan (St. Denis'). At that stage Attadale held a slender lead 4-41 to St. Denis' 4-40. In the final round of mixed doubles, both sets were halved and the match tied on sets and games, 6-59 each after Attadale had won the last set on a tiebreaker. This match is being replayed at St. Denis', the game commencing half an hour earlier at 1 p.m. It is anyone's guess as to the eventual winner in view of the tie and their earlier match in which Attadale won by two games.
IMPROVED PLAY A much improved performance by Attadale saw them reverse last week's result and defeat Queens Park to win the C Grade pennant. The men's doubles was halved, however, Attadale won both sets in the ladies' doubles to go to a 3-23 to 1-12 lead. The first round of the mixed doubles saw Attadale win three of the four sets and go to a commanding lead at afternoon tea. The scores being 6 sets 44 games to 2-25. Queens Park were facing an uphill battle to
win and could only manage one set in the final round, with the final scores being 9-66 to Attadale, and 3-34 to Queens Park. Attadale deserved to win but Queens Park played extremely well for a team comprised of juniors playing in their first season of senior pennants and are to be congratulated on making the final.

In the Y.C.W. Netball Association Competition last weekend, at Dog Swamp, all results in the A Reserve Grade matches were clear cut.
All matches were won by very large margins, Scarborough (1) defeated Mirrabooka (37 to 7) and Anne Bizzaca for Scarborough was the stongest player on the field. Mercy College (1) convincingly defeated Siena (42 to 5) with the help of strong passing by J. Bennetts for Mercy College. Doubleview (1) defeated Dianella (27 to 8) with S. Wild the best player for Doubleview. The results in B2 Grade were much closer. St. Thomas Aquinas defeated Why Sees (21 to 16) and J. Richardson of St. Thomas Aquinas was the best player. Doubleview (2) had a close win over Scarborough (2) (26 to 22) and S. Williamson for Doubleview was the best player on the field. At Hedley Park, in A
Grade. there was an up set in one match. Bentley (2) defeated Blue Birds (1) b\ One goal. This was an unexpected result but was brought about by determined and consistent play by the whole Bentley team and captain, Michelle Sartori, in particular. No other results are available for Hedley Park as many matches were postponed because of the school holidays. UMPIRE'S EXAM An important day coming up is the umpire's examination to be held at Mercedes at 7.30 p.m. on Monday, May 31. All teams must have four representatives present at this examination. This is being held in an effort to raise the standard of umpiring in the association and therefore, also raise the standard of play — MOIRA LYNCH.
