THE VATICAN WANTS SHIFT

Perth, WA: August 7-13 Telephone: (09) 328 1388

Number 2198 Price: 30 cents.

A sum of $705 wil be heading in the direction of overseas underdeveloped countries as a result of the CBC andSt. Mary's senior schools' Aid Fete last week. Organised by a charity committee o120 students, it was by far the largest involvement of students in what has become an annual school event. During Aid Week the combined enrolment of 480 were put in the picture of the world aid situation at an open-air concert and on consecutive days they attended Mass, had a Third World quiz, ate a plain rice meal as their only nourishment for the day and finally held a fundraising fete.

The Vatican wants a major redistribution of the world's clergy. The Congregation for the Clergy has o rdered all bishops' conferences to set up two c ommissions: "one forthe better distribution of the clergy and another for the missions." The suggestion is contained in a new Vatican document "Directive Norms for the Collaboration of the Particular Churchs Among Themselves and Especially for a Better Distribution of the Clergy in the World," which says: "If we turn our attention to the world to be evangelized and, more precisely, to the non-Christian population, we cannot tail to be struck by the insufficiency of the means which the church has as its disposal today to conf ront the immense problem.

Uneven distribution

Schools ask for more

"In 1977, our planet counted 4,094,110 ,000 inhabitants, of whom only 739,127,000 were Catholics, jut 18 percent of the world population. "It we then wish to consider the number of priests, comparing it with the number of inhabitants in the world, we have this picture: for every 100,000 inhabitants there are two (priests) in Asia, four in Africa, 13 in Latin America, 26 in Oceania, 29 in North America, 37 in Europe." The document said that the uneven distribution of priests around the world had been aggravated by a sharp drop in vocations in the late that 1960s and the 1970s and by the large number of priests who left the active ministry in that same period. It viewed redistribution as only part of the solution, stressing that more priestly vocations and a renewed missionary awareness throughout the church were the more basic issues.

The NSW Catholic Education Commission has printed more than 200,000 pamphlets e xplaining the need for increased funds from both Commonwealth and State governments. The pamphlet details the urgent need for increases in both recurrent and capital grants to Catholic schools. The NSW Catholic Education Commission is asking the C ommonwealth government for a significant increase in grants per pupil at both primary and secondary level. It also seeks an increase of 10 per cent per year in funds for building projects. From the State government, the CEC is seeking an increase in 1981 to $216 for each primary pupil and an increase to $366 for secondary pupils. It also wants the State government to extend interest s ubsidies to loans for construction of approved boarding school projects. It asks all parliamentarians to c onsider the following question: How do your funding policies align with the State commitment of all major p olitical parties to the continuance of non-government education opportunities at the present level?

Organisers of a 40th birthday re-union October 10 to 13 in Geraldton have so far contacted 80 of the past pupils and they suspect that many have moved to distant points of Australia and beyond. Mrs. Bernadette Bowey (099 21 1127) 46 Bayley Street Geraldton is organiser of the re-union. Western Australia, with its big postwar migration from the United Kingdom and Europe, has forgotten what was happening in migration thinking way back in 1937. The Christian Brothers were about to launch their dream that young migrant boys from England and local graduates from CIontarf would be introduced to the farming profession on the Tardun property they had been developing since 1929. The Nazareth Sisters with their large network of child care centres in England were also to take

part in the scheme. Sister Emmanuel Mary and Sister Simeon came with the first group of boys in 1938 and settled at Tardun while their new Bluff Point Nazareth House was being built. The famous priest architect, Monsignor Hawes, was working on a Spanish quadrangle design Home that would care for children and also for elderly people. It was opened at the height of the war in 1941 when all migration programmes had been suspended. The first group of children arrived on September 23 1947. Once a lonely sentinel on the windy coast, Nazareth House today is surrounded by the suburban streets of Geraldton's expanding northern suburbs and have been extensively remodelled to care for 70 elderly residents. Metropolitan residents requiring further information may contact Mrs. Pauline Brown (458 2519) 187 William Street Bechenham 6107.

Priest's' posts


A NEW LIFE HERE

The joint effort of the St. Francis Xavier Cathedral parish and the St. George's Anglican parish at Geraldton in settling four Vietnamese families into the area is the type of excellent ecumenical exercise that should be encouraged.

Two CSIRO scientists have e stablished a relationship between cot death and a low level of the vitamin biotin in the liver of infants. They are recommending that, as a precaution, all commercially sold infant milk formulations, particularly so-called 'humanized' formulas — those designed to more closely resemble mothers' milk — should be supplemented with the vitamin. The scientists are Dr Alan Johnson and Dr Ross Hood of the organization's Division of Food Research in Sydney. The CSIRO scientists' work on biotin, which is one of the B group of vitamins, began about seven years ago in a field seemingly fat removed from "cot death". "We decided to investigate the sudden death of seemingly health, young broiler chickens," Dr Johnson explained. "This affliction of young chickens — called the Fatty Liver and Kidney Syndrome — was causing serious financial losses to the poultry industry.

Stress Factor "In association with the University of Syndey, we found that a marginal deficiency of biotin was a contributing factor in the deaths of young broiler chickens which had been subjected to stress. "The stress could be as slight as a light turned on at night, a sudden change in temperature, or the removal of food during the night. "We showed that the marginal deficiency of biotin causes a r educed activity of the biotindependent enzyme pyruvic carboxylase, one of the key enzymes involved in the synthesis of glucose. "In a stressful situation, insufficient glucose is synthesized to meet the increased demand. As a result, the bird enters a hypoglycemic coma and dies quietly without a s truggle. " When the birds' diet was supplemented with biotin, the syndrome w as eliminated." Dr Johnson said that as a result of t his work they started an investigation on the possible role of biotin in Sudden Infant Death Syndrome of infants inthe first year of life.

In London

A series of biotin assays was carried out in London at the Queen Elizabeth College, where Dr Johnson was working as a visiting scientist. It showed that the livers of children who had inexplicably were lower in biotin that those of infants Whose deaths could be assigned to a Particular cause, such as a disease. T wo further series of liver samples analysed in Australia again showed t hat the level of biotin in livers from infants one to 52 weeks of age who died unexpectedly was signficantly lower than in livers of infants whose death could be explained. In all, the three series of tests involved the assay of livers of 300 infants. In all cases, the scientists assayed livers for biotin with no prior k nowledge as the cause of death.

This is the belief of Mr. Guido Vogels, the migrant social worker for Centrecare, who has had considerable experience in helping to introduce refugees into the WA community. Mr. Vogels said that with Asian refugees such as those from Vietnam a number of factors influenced the ease with which they were able to integrate into Australian society. These factors included the length of time they had spent in refugee camps in Asia, their command of English, or the number of family members who had been lost and whether any of their women had been raped. They had to bridge the vast cultural differences that existed between their country of origin and Australia. Welfare organisations such as the St. Vincent de Paul Society rendered valuable assistance, such as in housing and employment. One fact that many refugees found difficult to comprehend was that Australia had an honest civil service. On odd occasions when a local bureaucracy had found requests on behalf of refugees impossible to meet, some refugees had offered money to welfare workers to be passed on to the civil servants to achieve the objective desired. They had expressed surprise when told that this was not how the A ustralian system worked. Mr. Vogels said that host families assigned to refugee families played a vital role in easing them into the WA community. They helped in all manner of ways, including enrolling the children at schools, explain-

Most refugees came with nothing. They were not here by choice because they would much rather be back in the country of their birth in different circumstances. However, they were very grateful to be here. If the two big hurdles of housing and employment could be negotiated, they were hard and satisfactory workers and their children did very well at school. Their good family support system buoyed them through difficulties in the face of which they might otherwise have collapsed.

CLEAR TRUTHS Future church ON WORK

By Mrs J. V. Kerr, R ichmondStreet, NorthPerth 6006

Where do I think the Church is heading?

A disapproving reader of the new look Record wrote recently that he did not buy the paper to learn the pros and cons of the 35 hour week. (Nor regrettably was he interested in what Herb Elliott thinks of the ABC or even Father Gibney's heroism at Glenrowan!) A subject like technology would probably get the same treatment from those Catholics who believe that their religion stops at the index in a book of Catholic doctrine. Technology is always in the news but moreso because of the recent publication of the Myers report. Like many of today's complex subjects the report will be read little and understood least by the great majority of people whose lives are being radically changed by growth in technology. The little person in today's society feels frustrated and threatened because the long term decisions affecting his working life are beyond his understanding and appear to take no notice of his opinion. A Catholic has a point from which to start thinking on technology. The Book of Genesis points out some very clear truths that have existed since the dawn of time. O ne truth is that all creative activity, then and now, is the handiwork of God. The other truth was an inescapable flaw that had appeared in God's work. Two situations in life are traced clearly back to the primaeval Original Sin that has taken root in human nature. Work is not always a creative fulfilling experience. It is also tedium, the "sweat of the brow". The joy of bringing new life into the world is tinged by pain and anxiety. Those two fundamental flaws are still with us and Catholic teaching on the ominous presence of Original Sin has not changed either. At the turn of the century the young priest Joseph Cardijn made it his life vocation to teach the brutalised miners of Belgium that God cared about their work at the coal face. He also wanted to teach those first Young Christian Workers that the redeeming Death of Jesus Christ was not locked up in the sanctuary of a church, but was present day by day as man struggled with man for survival, for human rights and dignity. Technology embraces many different situations: efficiency, computerisation, the 35 hour week, leisure, job training. Each person will view the situation largely from their own self interest. Pioneer West Australians who toiled are dead but so are many of the backbreaking labours by which the railways and Goldfields pipeline were laid in the harsh soil of WA or farmers were defeated trying to clear the Group Settlement farms with little more than an axe and a stout heart.

Technology has not and will not cure avarice, or the envy between the worker who has skills and money in his pocket and the worker sitting on the fringes of today's so-called affluent society. The Original Sin of injustice avarice and self interest is as hard at work today as it ever was. People who profess a faith in God the Creator and the loving concern of Jesus the Carpenter of Nazareth have an obligation to bring God's reflection to the subject.

Perth motorists should count their blessings in having such an excellent freeway system at their disposal. I have seen the roadways that surround most of the major cities of the world and in my view none is as effective as ours. Perth's freeways have wrought a transformation in urban road travel, not only for motorists but also for passengers in the excellent MTT buses that traverse them. One can now travel between suburbs north and south of the city in times that would have appeared incredible only a few short years ago. Yet with these riches now available and planned for the future, Perth's motorists still have not the faintest idea of how to drive correctly on freeways. The freeways have a speed limit of 80kph, which in my opinion should be higher with the performance of today's motor vehicles, kit still many drivers dawdle along le g freeway lanes at 60kph or

TO KILL?

B y Bryan Casey, East Fremantle. Nowadays when a pregnant woman is faced with the possibility of a malformed foetus, a humanistic materialistic society says it should be killed. When a person is discovered with a terminal cancer, the verdict is "Stop the pain, end the life in the name of mercy". When one person kills another, society calls for a death penalty as an act of revenge. To all three of these situations the Christian's simple response is: "Thou shalt not kill". Forget the embroidery of the arguments in each case because it is clear that the giving and taking of human life is in the province of God. If we Christians are not consistent in our views we will not be credible and if not credible we will have no hearers.

This gives rise to dangerous situations, as following motonss understandably lose patience and try to pass. Others switch from lane to lane with gay abandon with belated or no warning from their turn indicators. The major message is drive at 80k.ph or dou't use the freeway; otherwise you negate the swift passage of traffic objective for which it was built.

In my estimation the Church is heading right into a second Pentecost — but to deserve the full blast a further spreading out must be encouraged. The favoured few, i.e devotees and intellectuals, have it good, but what of the fringes of society who either through shyness or ignorance do not reach out to hear the Word? One must ask as with Abraham: Are there ten good men? On the face of it,I would say yes there are ten and more, but they are too charitable not to look back with loving concern. So if we don't wish to be turned into pillars of salt let us carry the mob along with us. The propaganda machine gives the advantage, considering the masses are so easily swayed; so now is the time to make a big noise. Sensationalism is the recruiting gimmick; thus it was at the first Pentecost and it will be so far the second.

They are to ON THE GOLDFIELDS ... Best way to get be ignored

plane, build it

B egging letters from overseas missions should generally be ignored. This advice may sound hard, but I make it after discussions with the N ational Missions Office and with experienced overseas missioners. There are almost nine h undred misisonary dioceses in the world, and every one of them already receives support through the S ociety for the Propagation of the Faith. Even emergencies such as floods, famine and c yclones are covered by special funds which are available on request by the Bishop. Mission centres which send out begging letters for support are looking for something extra, and often they are not t he most deserving missions. Recently, a lady asked me to check the address of a mission in India which had sent her such a begging letter. The address was actually that of a wellestablished technical college. Missions which have the resources to send letters and literature around the world are usually well established and well supported. The most deserving missions are the small remote ones which r eceive no publicity, but receive regular support from the Society for the Propagation of the Faith. May God reward their generous benefactors. * * *

"All institutions that fail to cultivate the proper formation of youth grow old prematurely and feel weariness sapping their strength, whether in continuing joyfully the work already begun or in undertaking new initiative. This is also true of the missionary apostolate." With this thought, Cardinal Agnelo Rossi, Prefect of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples, in Rome introduced the national Directors to the theme of their May 16 meetings: "Youth and the Pontifical Mission Aid Societies." * * *

"But for the ministrations of those Catholic Missions that can fairly be claimed to have been successful, even when judged on purely nonChristian considerations, there would probably be no fullblooded Aborigines at all left in the majority of those Australian areas where they are still surviving." T.G.H. STREHLOW ( Anthropologist. University of Adelaide) *** Ihave learned one very simple thing during the training of catechists; that we clergy must not fear to give great responsibility to nonclergy. The good Catholic won't let the Church down. Some of our catechists make me feel ashamed at my own lack of zeal...I believe that it will be through such men and women that ministries will be widely spread and that the Church will be truly one People of God.

T wenty-three members of "Concern Universal" have been working since the end of March among the Kampuchean refugees on the Thai frontier, chiefly in K hao Idang, which numbers 130,000 inhabitants. The programmes there include supplementary feeding, Advisory Feeding Centre, public health visitation, health e ducation, School A rtists' Workshops, and more recently W omen's Work Programmes and Library. In addition, three of the nurse midwives and a team of Thai doctors look after the outpatients department in Section 7. Two more are in the maternity section of Red Cross Hospital 11. Amok

His name is Father Ted Hewitt and he is determined to have an aeroplane of his own. He is sure that the best way to do this is to make one. So he acquired the plans of a twoseater monoplane, the KR2, and set about making the plane. In 12 months' time he expects to be visiting his parishioners in the aircraft. He is satisfied with his choice of model because many of the same design are already in use in America and Australia. His determination to have an aircraft of his own was firmed some years ago

when a plane he was piloting crashed. He believes that the petrol was milked from the tank, which obliged him to make the emergency landing, which he managed quite skilfully with no injury to himself or his passenger. With 200 flying hours to his credit, Father Hewitt is an experienced pilot who likes to be thoroughly familiar with the plane he is flying. The home-built K R2 is fast for its type and fuel-efficient, the latter being an important consideration in this day of scarcer and dearer petrol.

Parish in mining revival It's early Wednesday afternoon - time for me to take off into the wilderness to traverse the vast hectares of red earth in which are dotted some of the small settlements out of Kalgoorlie.

Leonora, 240 arid kilometres to the north, is my first stop on the road that spears from Kalgoorlie through the shield of distance. There I meet Sisters Joan and Damian who have been busy in the town since the previous Monday. They have gathered the children for a religious instruction class, an uplifting experience for the tutors and the taught that ends fittingly with the celebration of the Eucharist which is also attended by a number of adults. On Thursday morning the Sisters and myself get together for morning prayer and the Eucharist, and then comes the parting of the ways. By Father Brian McKENNA, a Kalgoorlie-based priest, They set off for Laverton, rich whose ministry extends to new mineral centres and mining gold of in the history revived old mining towns. and named after Dr. Laver, while I point in the direction of Leinster, a company town good highway, to catch up with the new mining town of Leins- with modern amenities in the the Sisters again at Laverton.

me to be stranded at Leinster. On Friday evening at Laverton there is a Eucharist and a bit of a social gathering for the Catholic women in the town always a pleasant affair that is looked forward to by all who attend. The main community Eucharist is celebrated on Saturday evening. On Sunday morning the Sisters and myself get together in Laverton for breakfast and morning prayer before setting out on the home trip to Kalgoorlie - a journey on which there are several stops. The first is after 120 kilometres at Leonora, which we reach in time for the 9am Eucharist. From there we travel 150 kilometres for the mid-day eucharist at Menzies. This is followed by lunch and then the last 130 kilometres to Kalgoorlie. During the past two years in this area there have been four weddings, three converts received into the Church, 25 baptisms, about 10 confirmations and 30 children prepared for their First Communion and Reconciliation. So in between travelling and celebrating the Eucharist, a fair bit of general pastoral work has to be fitted in. The mineral boom has meant that the size of each of the towns is increasing and new towns are being established in the area.

AN 'INDECENT GAOLING N-BAN? 'Men' again in

The runaways, into sex and porn are "victims"

RULE BY MURDER

AURORA, Illinois (NC) — The recent murders in Guatemala of two Missionaries of the Sacred Heart (MSC) priests are part of an e ffort to further oppress the Quiche Indians, said a statement issued by the order.

The murdered priests, both Spaniards, worked among the Indians. "Spiritual leadership is being hampered by the murdering of our missionaries and other Religious. Some are also being forced to flee the country. Fewer priests r emain to support the Quiche Indians and others who are being systematically oppressed," added the statement.

NEW YORK (NC): A Franciscan priest working to help runaway youngsters in New York City says that the thousands of such youngsters involved in prostitution and pornography are the real victims of so-called "victimless" crime.

NEWARK, N.J. (NC) — Archbishop Peter L. Gerety of Newark has endorsed the stand in opposition to nuclear armament taken by Father John P. Egan, who was recently gaoled for 29 days afteraprotest at the Pentagon in Washington. "Perhaps you might think that it is indecent for a priest to find himself in gaol," Archbishop Gerety said. "If you do, then it might be useful to review the life stories of some of the saints. "St. Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Jesuits, was gaoled several times in his early career. "In the New Testament we learned that St. Peter and St. Paul spent time in prison. "And, of course, Jesus Christ said that he found it hard to believe the assault charge brought against Father Egan. "If you know him, you are well aware that he is one of the most gentle men that God ever created," he said. Society was not always very easy on those "who are protesting injustice," Archbishop Gerety said. "We should think carefully about this since we

Mass language

MILWAUKEE (NC): Because of a recent Vatican ruling, the Benedictine liturgist ArchbishopWeakland will discontinue dropping the word "men" from the Mass words of consecration but will continue to work for non-sexist language.

"I have been one of those who dropped the word 'men' f rom the consecratory words ('for all men")," Archbishop Weakland said, "because I felt that it disturbed unduly so many sensitive and concerned women. In the light of this 'instruction, and lest it be interpreted as a manipulation 'for social and political ends' rather than an act of genuine pastoral concern, I will refrain from doing so in the future." The archbishop said that he expected priests who used the "never -approved version 'for many — to stop doing so. "At the same time," he added, "I assurethe women of the diocese who are rightly so sensitive to any language that seems to exclude them — even though this may not be the intention of the celebrant —that I will continue my effortsto obtain translations that do not offend or seem to excKide them, especially at this most important moment of the Mass."

Franciscan Father Bruce Ritter blamed the youngsters' plight on the millions of customers who view prostitution and pornography as "entertainment" and on a society that condones such behaviour to the extent that pimps (procures of prostitutes) are protected and well-known "crime families" are allowed to gross millions of dollars by virtually enslaving thousands of youngsters.

Attempt to discredit Jes


Peter Spencer, undoubtedly one of the best footballers this State has produced for a long time, rarely hears the roar of the crowd when he is out in the middle. He is barely conscious of it ometimes when there is a very big s number of spectators at finalround or interstate matches, but he is generally too busy to notice it because of his concentration on the game. The modest champion, an acolyte at St Mary's Cathedral, denies the suggestion that the many injuries he has suffered in his prizestudded career were caused by malicious attention from opponents. "Initially they were brought a bout by my inexperience," he says, "but in the main they are just part of the game."

These days you read of fathers who go to watch their little sons play football and get involved in arguments with umpires and fights with other dads.

Peter wins all the awards

LEAGUE ACOLYTE IS ONToday's THE People BALL

Former State captain and East Perth half-forward Jim Spencer was not like that. He was there before the match, at the quarter-time, half-time and three-quarter time intervals and after the game to help and advise his boy. There was a lot of football talk at home, too. The sturdy tree of this support has borne fruit in the form of a football phenomenon who has won a Sandover Medal, been equal runner-up, won his league club's season fairest and best award, been runner-up for the club award twice and won nine season's best player awards from the news media and Tattersall's Club. His name is Peter Spencer and he's a bigger fellow than you'd think from watching him on the field. He stands just over 177.8cm (5ft 10in) and weights 73.8 kilos (11 stone 101b.)

Peter has noticed that the pressure of league football is increasing with every season he plays, and the attention he receives from opponents is growing with his development as a footballer. "You have to be fitter and perform better now," he says. "in no way is the game getting any easier." He believes that as much mental as physical training is now required. "You have to think positively about improving your own game and thus helping the team to win, and you have to give a lot of thought to the side

A CHALLENGE

PORT HEDLAND: Saint John the Baptist and Saint Cecilia parishes in Port Hedland challenge any other WA parish to equal $1000.81 raised last Sunday for the African Relief Appeal being conducted by Australian Catholic Relief. A meal of rice and water was on hand after each Sunday Mass and parishioners were asked to donate a minimum of $5 for a plate of rice and a cup of water, irrespective of whether they ate it or not. Cost of organising the appeal? $7 for paper plates,cups and plastic forks. The Record, August 7-13, 1980

Millions otto in need of help Ten million people are suffering in the disaster currently affecting the countries of North East Africa. S omalia, Ethiopia, Uganda, Kenya, Sudan and Djibouti are suffering from the effects of war and a grave refugee problem affecting more than 3 million people. T he present severe drought has only made the situation much worse for the people in the area. This has created a far more serious situation than the crisis in Kampuchea. A ustralian Catholic Relief has been aware of the serious situation and in April allocated $20,000 to Ethiopia; $20,000 to the Sudan and $10,000 to Uganda. The Ethiopian C atholic Secretariat reports that in Ethiopia alone 5.2 million people are affected, one third of them refugees. The Overseas Aid Agencies in Australia, inculding Australian Catholic Relief and the St. Vincent de Paul Society, have launched, through the International an African Relief Appeal. Donations may be sent to Australian Catholic Relief Catholic Church Office Victoria Square Perth.

The CWL leader

On our return to England from Ireland my family settled in Wakefield, Yorkshire, and I attended the convent school there and received First Communion at the Church of St. Austins, In London in the depression I went to St. Andrew's School, Streatham, which was run by a Belgian religious order but was eventually funded and run by the London County Council and lay staff were gradually introduced, the religious Sisters taking over the running of the private school. The sisters, however, continued to take part in our religious formation and so I became a member first of the Guild of St. Philomena and then later a Child of Mary.

TONIGHT'S MOVIE GUIDE

The Legacy of L.S.B. Leakey on Nine at 3.35pm today focused on The Bones of Contention.

They are the fossil remains about whose origin there has been a great brouhaha.

4

The Lindbergh Kidnapping Case, Seven, 8pm, starring Cliff De Young, Anthony Hopkins, Sian Barbara Allen, Walter Pidgeon, Joseph Cotten. Depicts the kidnapping and murder in 1932 of the son of famous aviator Charles Lindbergh and covers the search for and the arrest of Bruno Richard Hauptmann and his trial. Few cases have evoked such hysteria in the normally hysterical nation that America is as the Lindbergh case. But despite the trial and execution of Bruno Hauptmann, doubt still lingers about whether he was guilty or simply the victim of a drive that had to find a scapegoat.

Definitely the pick of the crop of this out of ratings week. * * *

Suppose They Gave a War and Nobody Came, Nine, 8.35, starring Brian Keith, Tony Curtis, Suzanne Pleshette. A warrant officer is assigned to community relations at a big army base in Anderson, Davis County (presumably in the U.S.), where he "meets up with two buddies." The lack of information provided by the channel about this movie, even to the omission of where Davis County is, makes it a mystery before it starts. Watch it - thefact that it is either so good or so bad could he an explanation for the channel's reticence.

Dr. Louis S.B. Leakey was right in the middle of the turmoil and he loved it. Convinced that Africa and not Asia was the birthplace of mankind, Leakey spent a lifetime unearthing human and animal finds and shocking the scietific community with what they called his showmanship. This programme visits Olduvai Gorge in Tanzania in the area where Leakey and his wife, Mary, studied for 30 years and where

they uncovered fossil remains of Zinjanthropus, a pre-historic man dating back 1.75 million years. It also covers Leakey testing the theories that he formulated about how early man lived - chipping tools from rock and devising snares made of tree bark the way early man might have. At Olduvai Gorge in 1959 the Leakeys made their great find. Mary discovered two teeth embedded in rock. Dr. Leakey described the dis-

covery: "Here at last was a man or man-like creature found in direct association with a simple stone chopping tool.

"Apparently the earliest known man in the world - Zinjanthropus." And as age advanced upon the confident anthropologist Leakey drove himself cruelly, trying to sell the world on the value of anthropological study, his fears for the human race, and his theories.

Tensions still in Netherlands

U TRECHT, Netherlands (NC) - About two years ago Cardinal Jan Willebrands of Utrecht asked the Vatican to appoint two auxiliary bishops to help him.

So far no appointments have been made. The delay is symptomatic of points of tension between the church in Hollard and Vitican. Until 1970, under the leadership of Cardinal Alfrink, the previous archbishop of Utrecht, the Dutch bishops followed a policy of trying to reconcile the tensions that had resulted from the liberal impact of the Second Vatican Council on a national church that previously was marked by conservatism. Many Dutch Catholics believe the Vatican harmed this reconciliation policy by appointing two c onservative minded bishops against the wishes of the local church: Bishop Simonis of Rotterdam, and Bishop Gijsen of Roermond. Many of the difficulties the bishops have experienced are caused by the small number of bishops. By contrast, theapproximately 4 million Catholics in England and Wales have 43 bishops. In Australia, some 35 bishops care for nearly 3 million Catholics. Unlike the situation in such countries with a numerous hierarchy, the seven members of the Dutch Bishops' Conference cannot hide their differences, which range from the conservativism of

Its area of 13,500 square miles is roughly half the size of Tasmania (26, 215 sq. miles) and 72 times as

smaller than Western Australia (975,920 sq. miles).

A s a result, there is no problem concerning the ability of Dutch bishops to get around their exist-

ing dioceses. Nor do Catholics have to travel long distances to see their bishop. Dutch Catholics have a pragmatism springing from their common-sense.

They are attached to their existing dioceses. Many might resent finding themselves belonging to another see. Another serious issue is the strain additional dioceses would place on depleted clerical manpower. Over the past 15 years about 1,500 Dutch priests have left'the ministry. Currently there are about 6,750 priests in the Netherlands for 5.5 million Catholics. Even if diocesan bureaucracy were pared to the minimum, each new diocese would mean removing at least some priests from fulltime pastoral work. How will these complexities be resolved? So far, no clear answer has emerged from the Vatican or the Dutch hierarchy. The delays in naming new auxiliaries or in creating new dioceses have only served to stalemate the differences within the Dutch church.

OLY DAY MASS INFLICT

An emotional outpouring of reaction has been triggered by a proposal that obligation to attend Mass be dropped on four of the six U.S. holy days.

"It is not enough just to see situations that exist but

to act in accordance with what is right and just as Christ has taught through the Gospels. "The YCW helps young workers to understand that they are called to a special vocation by Christ to be his witnesses in the work place and in the home. "The Monastery group has studied the situation of the unemployed and is presently looking for a response they can make. "The Hamersley group is working on a survey of young people's attitudes to work, leisure and spirituality. This is an important step in order to be of service in the Hamersley area. "Having visited ten YCW groups, spoken with leaders, ex-YCW members and priests, I feel more able to share the Australian experience of the YCW with leaders from Bangladesh.

"Dad, I don't want to go to Mass" is a cry heard from youth of all ages. Last weekIlistened to a concerned father expressing his difficulty in convincing his daughter to go to Mass. "Ifeel bored and find it uninteresting" is the common plea with which p arents and teachers are confronted. Adults do not want to be seen to be forcing youth to do something against their will, but on the other hand, parents have a responsibility to teach and inspire their children with Christian values. Youth rebel over the matter of going to Mass; they rebel also about many simple things like keeping their room tidy. All this causes much anxiety and concern to the parents. Rebellion in itself need not be a bad thing, provided youth are rebelling against real injustice or the false values of our world. To rebel sincerely one must be prepared to accept pain, and even death. Jesus was a rebel who died on the cross. The early christians were rebels; they were fed to the lions. It seems that the answer to objections about going to Mass lies in the way that the issue is handled. The young person has a right at least to express feelings honestly

Spotlight on our schools According to their principal, Sister Eileen, the 74 pupils of St. John's Primary School at Scarborough — most of whom are pictured here — are "warm, f riendly and wonderful." The boys' classes are from Grades 1 to 3 and the girls' from Grades 1 to 7. The school was founded by the Mercy Sisters in 1948 and later taken over by the Dominican nuns. The full-time staff consists of Sister Eileen, two lay teachers and Sister Marie Therese who does part-time remedial t eaching. One volunteer mother works in the library and others teach subjects such as arts, crafts and reading on a voluntary basis. "We have a great P and F Association and a school board," says Sister Eileen. "In addition to the work done by the mothers, the fathers often slave at busy bees from 7.30a.m. to 5.30p.m. "Last year the parents carpeted the school throughout and provided fans and heaters. They have supplied a lot of other equipment as well." Each month a different grade takes it in turn to provide the theme for a school Mass. They do the readings, prepare the prayers of the faithful and present significant symbols at the Mass. One little girl, for example, presented a

hose with the idea that just as the hose spreads water to grow beautiful flowers and plants so should everybody spread the goodness of God's word. "The main aim of our teaching is to inculcate a love of God and neighbour," Sister Eileen says in her Kerry brogue. "We try to give the children Christian values and ideals. "Last year we raised money for a village in Guyana. The priest there bought implements for the impoverished farmers and sent us a lovely letter of thanks. "The year before we bought school books for illiterate adults in South America, and we help our Dominican missions in the Solomon Islands." Funds are raised through a variety of means such as quiz nights, lamington drives and cake stalls and the big school fete will be held in November. Last year St. John's was threatened with closure through declining enrolments, but vigorous protests by parents at a special meeting brough a five-year reprieve. The children come from the Scarborough, Karrinyup and Greenwood areas and next year the running of the school will be taken over by a lay principal. The Scarborough parish priest is Father Frank Dillon, a former editor of The Record, and he takes a keen interest in the school.

Earlier this year a group of people from the Marriage Encounter Resource community presented one of its programmes "We the Parish" to a core group of Belmont parishioners. A ssistant Priest, Fr. Steve Truscott, challenged the group to share their experience with the whole parish family. The core group carefully planned their strategy and over several weeks prepared 75 people to present the programme in 15 homes each week. As a result, over 200 parishioners have taken part in the first week eagerly looking forward to the remaining three weeks of the programme. Fr. Vincent McCabe said, "It is the largest involvement of parishioners ever experienced in Belmont". The programme "We the Parish" has proved successful in many parishes, but not on the same scale as the Belmont experience. Credit must go to Fr. Steve Truscott, the committee and the large number of willing presenters. The parish youth group was strongly represented in the programme.

Should your parish be interested in futher information, please contact Peter and Veronica Dymond, 29 Recreation Road, Kalamunda (09 293 2214). * * *
