East Victoria Park's neighbouring Catholic schools are to join forces in 1981 amalgamating Years Five Six and Seven and introducing a second stream in Year Eight. To be known as Xavier College, the new school will have an enrolment of 400 co-education through to Year Seven. Formerly, boys were streamed off at Year Five, causing enrolment difficulties for the primary section. More than a hundred parents have taken part in planning discussions during which six models for the development of the schools were presented for consideration. The parents felt that the schools were not sufficiently known so they conducted a letter drop of 10,000 brochures in a area from Kewdale to Armadale. Fifteen enrolments are thought to have resulted from the move. Mr Peter Hann, brother of Aquinas headmaster Brother Terry Hann, and who became first lay principal after the withdrawal of the Christian Brothers in 1978, will be principal of the new school. Mercy Sister Mary Keeley will be teacher in charge of the primary section. (0 Continued page 2)

The 1980 Social Justice Statement, released by the Catholic Commission for Justice and Peace deals with the social and political responsibilities of Christians.

Town & Country. Setting the Pace. Town & Country Permanent Building Society 297 Murray Street Perth Telephone 3273333.

The statement looks firstly at world poverty and draws attention to the fact that a fifth of the world's population live in absolute poverty — many of them in our own geographical region. Powerless before the world's wealthiest companies and the superpowers, their poverty is made by their powerlessness. In Australia as well, poverty and powerlessness are widespread. We live in a society established by violence to the Aboriginal people. Violence in relationships and social structures continues. Widespread poverty goes hand in hand with the threatened erosion of human rights. Some two million people in Australia have seriously inadequate housing, medical services and even food and clothing. At the same time, public dissent is being restricted by new laws.

Poverty and powerlessness are a challenge to the Christian Churches in different parts of the world. Generally, however, this renewed sense of purpose within the Church has led to a call for a preferential option for the poor. This means that the poor and powerless should have a preferential claim on the church's and society's resources. To make sure this option for the poor and powerless becomes real in the Australian Church, the use of church resources and personnel should be reviewed. A complete review of church activities — who is being served, who is being neglected — is called for. This review should lead to a thorough pastoral plan which incorporates: •An analysis of society with particular reference to the needs of the poor; •An examination of possible responses the Church could make; •Setting priorities and targets.

$80,000 PROVIDES THE NEW FACILITIES T L. The cathedral Parish centre

A ssisted by Dean Foley (left)Archbishop Goody blesses the new Cathedral Parish Centre. Mrs. Rose Burke holds the cross.

F;

The new St. Mary's Cathedral Parish Centre was officially inaugurated this week after Archbishop Goody blessed the premises that open on Hay Street.

The Cathedral parish has paid $8.9,000 for the renovation of the ground floor area to provide a wide range of facilities for the Cathedral parish and other groups. In the new complex, the St. Mary's Cathedral choir have a fully equipped rehearsal room to replace their former use of the Victoria Avenue chapel that has been restored as St. John's Pro-Cathedral. The cathedral folk group also have a separate rehearsal room. A main auditorium with stage can accommodate 150 people and a smaller meeting room can be used by up to 100.

Colour in Bible The Bible Society national production and marketing coordinator in Australia, Charles Cook, describes this special edition as having the sales appeal of a top-selling illustrated book. "This is the Bible we always wanted, a Bible which explains itself," he said. An initial release of 25,000 copies are available throughout Australia. The Good News Bible was first released in A ustralia during December, 1976. Since then 644,000 copies have been sold which means one in 22 Australians have purchased this book. The Bible Society in Australia released a new concept in Bibles today. The Good News Bible Special Edition has full colour illustrations and photographs of the people, places and events through each section of Bible history. This new Bible has over 140 pages of special feature material including a comprehensive Introduction to the Bible section. A clear explanation of difficult words and concepts will help new Bible readers understand and enjoy the text. There is also a Word List, Index and a Daily Reading Plan for one year. The Good News Bible Special Edition was produced to commemorate the 175th year of the w orld-wide Bible S ociety Movement which started in England in 1804.

A special craft activity room as well as kitchen areas make the building suitable for community use and there are six smaller meeting rooms for various groups. The premises are carpeted throughout. The new parish centre fills a long felt need since the old cathedral hall in Murray Street was taken over by the Health Department for tuberculosis testing in the 1950. The Hay Street building started out in life as the garage for Archbishop Clune's car before it became the home of the Record newspaper in 1923.

The Record, September 11-17, 1980

An out;standing success story of boosting The Record for its intrinsic reading value — and incidentally promoting sales — has been recorded in the Morley parish. There parishioner Will De Smedt, conscious of the value of the "new look" Record, approached parish priest Father Michael Brown with the proposition that he and his family should be permitted to sell the newspaper at Masses in the parish on Sundays. Father Brown was delighted to agree so Will and his daughters —

Susie (13), Rika (11) and Wendy (9) — went into action at the four Masses at the Church of the Infant Jesus on the following Sunday. By personally approaching parishioners either coming to Mass or leaving they increased sales from the previous average of 95 copies sold to 200.

In the succeeding three weeks the sales figure grew to 270. An approach to parish Legion of Mary president Mrs. Luna Pereria brought about the aid of junior members of that organisation as sales people.

Will went to Lockridge on the second week of his endeavours and sold 31 copies, against the previous average of five. Since then two young men are selling an average of about 17a week. Now at St. Jude's, largely through the organisation of Mrs. Pauline Cornelius, she is selling 11 copies, against the previous two. Will adds: "Any parish can follow our example provided that they are prepared to get up and actively sell The Record which embodies the Church's views on current affairs and so much else that is worthwhile reading also."

WASHINGTON: (NC) — Mother Teresa of Calcutta, founder of the Missionaries of Charity and winner of the 1979 Nobel Peace Prize, has called abortion "the greatest destroyer of peace in the world."

Monsignor McMahon recounted this week how when he was studying in New York in 1926 he was presented with a gold hunter watch by the widow of Judge Walter Durack. He had the works taken out and the interior lined with gold and used it as a pyx to take The Blessed Sacrament to the sick and dying for more than 50

years before presenting it to the Duracks here. On a recent visit to the re-sited Argyle homestead near the Ord River Dam he saw the pyx. "I had to pay 50c to see my golden watch in the family museum there — which got a big laugh from the lady in charge," he said in the County Clare brogue which has become richer if anything in his 59 years in WA.

READ IT AND RE-READ IT There is a simple and practical acid test for any reaction to the annual publication this week of thestatement bythe Catholic Commission for Justice and Peace. If there is anyone in the community who can write a better statement then they are more than welcome to try their hand. This is not because the statement "Poverty, PowerandThe Church" is necessarily brilliant or penetrating in its analyses but because it says what has to be said and what too many readers would rather not hear. It is also a thankless task for anonymous writers to spend hours drafting, re-drafting, writing and re-writing for a battery of armchair critics who are only sure of what they don't like hearing about Christian justice. Poverty is the operative word in this year's document and it is contentious because only in a footnote is the reader given any help to unravel what is a difficult subject to grasp. Already, the scant notice the media have paid to the document has been mainly on the question whether two million poor really exist in Australia. The result of this approach is the impression createdfrom a Perth survey of welfare agencies last week that people were poor largely because the government charged too much for electricity and services. Thus another major social issue isturned intoan exerciseof merely passing the buck to the government. The crux of the problem in Australia and most Western countries today is that there is now more money in one pocket that another, and one individual can work to get that money while another cannot.

As the Commisison secretary David Pollard said this week: "It isworseto be poor in a rich countrythan poor in a poor country. There is a sense of failure and shame." Merely re-distributing or putting more money in pockets is not going to cure a disease as fundamental as that. Australians apparently are now affronted by the idea that they must dip into their own pockets to help their indigent relatives andfriends. Pious platitudesandexhortations by competing politicians are no curefor thatsort of mentality that is never found among the really poor. The document appears to have deliberately avoided tangling with economic solutions and theories. But by the same token its attempts to involve the "Church" in the practical discussion are idealisticandonly invite a passive reader to shrug the matter off as some one else's problem. The "Church" is only as strong and its "resources" only as effective as the 25 per cent of Catholics who each Sunday fill Catholic churches, dip into their pocketsand in thousands of heroic wayssupporta remarkable range of charitable and educational activities for which they receive all too little credit and thanks even from within the Church. If strategies have to be changed it will be at that level and not with mythical dreams of regional or national planning conferences, allegedly re-allocating resources that exist only because real live people want it that way. Maybe they should change their attitudes but no wave of a magic planning wand will do that overnight. In the meantime, the best thing that can happen to this document is for it not to be put down. It must be read and re-read in any home or classroom where goodwill and Christian concern are alive. Above all, it has to be a study in an atmosphere of prayer in which finger pointing and point-scoring are prohibited. Catholic debate on social issues turns all too readily into sanctimonious espousal of causes and the most satisfactory starting point would be the hallowed, and still active doctrine that Original Sin is alive and well in all of us. 26 John Street, Perth WA 6000. •• • Correspondence: • The Editor, The Record, PO Box 50 • • Aberdeen Street, Perth, 6000. • Advertising: : 4 Vanguard Service Telephone 328 1388 r egistered for posting as a newspaper Category "A" (11). • Produced in WA • Printed and published weekly by Edward vanHeemst, • • • 26 John Street, Perth. • • • Established 1874 • •

Teachers 'confused'

"No clear Catholic doctrine" at school By Elizabeth Henderson, Cottesloe.

Like Mrs Eaton's nephews and nieces (The Record August 28) my own two children attend a Catholic school and are good students. But were it not for my teaching them at home such fundamentals as the Ten Commandments, why God made us, why we believe all the artides of faith in the Creed and such traditional prayers as the Hail Mary and the Rosary, etc, then they would have only the haziest knowledge of these. They seem to have lots of discussions in their religious classes, but with no clear Catholic doctrine as the

point of the lesson, I worry about the lasting value of these lessons — to me it doesn't seem they are adequate to train and develop the children into mature, committed adult Catholics, in a world so lacking in moral standard! and Christian values.

EMOLISHING HIS

By E.J. Carr, High Street, Fremantle Putting valuable- sites to their best commercial use seems to raise insoluble conflict between the soul and the body. A case in point is the demolition of the beautiful CML Building in St. George's Terrace to make way for yet another concrete box. The old building had many fine features that could not be repeated at today's prohibitive costs and dearth of skilled craftsman. These included the gargoyles that snorted from the roof (they w ere somewhat sneakily removed early on the pretext that they created a danger to those below), the quality door handles inside, the impressive staircases and the beautiful jarrah panelling in the offices. Yet this building, Perth's first "skyscraper" and a landmark to so many of its citizens, has fallen to the demolishers. Sadly, such destruction will continue until the National Trust or a similar body is given legislative "teeth" to make a preservation order stick and enough funds to be able to buy and preserve historical buildings.

-Mission news "One way of solving the energy cri-

sis is to turn grain into fuel for cars".

When I read that comment in a newspaper, it really brought home to me the difference between the affluent and the poor countries of the world. While the poor are struggling for food, the affluent would be literally burning grain in their cars. My conscience could not accept that. And yet I am already consuming more than my share of energy in this w orld. I have more than sufficient food and clothing. I have comfort and warmth at the turn of a switch.

Janette was presented with her missionary cross in Perth on July 23. In a letter home to her family, Janette mentioned that she went on a mission excursion with a Swiss priest during which she sang at six weddings. During one part of the trip, their canoe capsized. Very soon Janette will begin her main assignment as a teacher at a Catholic Secondary School on Abaiang Island in the Central Pacific. She has already helped to supervise an entrance exam for three thousand candidates for the high school. * **

Joan Flory from Longreach, Queensland, recently returned home after several years as a Lay Missionary in Madang, New Guinea. Joan writes that morning Masses have to be experienced to be believed. One cold morning she went to Mass at Wabag, near Mount Hagen, 6,500 feet above sea level. Over a hundred men, women and Children attended the Mass. The men wore coats over their tankget grass covering; the women w ore red cotton laplaps, and many of the children were naked. Intercessions during the Mass w ere made spontaneously in the Enga language, with a Lay leader concluding the prayers. The overall Joan received impression which was an outpouring of Christian joy.

Following last week's stories on married priests, Father John Lisle of Toodyay supplied the following extract from the Anglican paper "Church Scene". The author, the Rev. Gorden Beatty was formerly director of the Sydney Church of England Marriage Guidance Centre and is now in private practice in the family counselling field.

Mostly, of course, they are but at some emotional cost to themselves and their parents. It is true, of course, that many clergy and clergy wives have stress in their marriage for similar reasons to other people.

When there was opportunity , and a little with tongue-in-cheek, I suggested that maybe it was an ascending order of importance; animals were created first, then man and then woman.

Reasons like unresolved emotional conflicts of many kinds; such as poor self-esteem and self-acceptance, emotional immaturity, sexual "hang ups", difficulty with authority figures, inadequate acceptance of maleness and femaleness, difficulty in accepting and communicating feelings.

Whatever may be said about the "headship" of the male, Galatians chapter 3 and verse 28 seems to make it clear that 'in Jesus Christ" men and women are of equal improtance." The question of male/female equality is one that causes stress with some clergy and clergy wives and it is a question which needs to be carefully sorted out.

Some clergy and clergy wives have difficulty concerning male/female equality. Ionce heard one clergyman, speaking in synod against a motion to

A happy marriage and a happy home is of the utmost importance to people, like clergy and clergy wives, who are called upon to give so much of themselves to others.

I ED VIEWS ON MARRIED RIEST

Catholic Archbishop Quinn of San Francisco says that it is a truly a historic and notably precedent setting." In a joint statement by Episcopal Bishop Joseph T. Heistand of Arizona and Catholic Bishop James S. Rausch of Phoenix. Ariz., the two called the decision "another momentous step in the long quest for reconciliation between Rome and Canterbury. "It seems to us that there is a great sign of hope for the pilgrimage toward this reconciliation in the plan's acknowledgement that these men may retain 'common identity,' for example, in elements of their Anglican liturgical tradition." The two bishops said they believe there is no attempt to proselytize, Episcopal Bishop Vache said he since the permission was granted didn't believe the acceptance of at the requests of individual Angli- married Anglican priests by the can priests.

Reacting negatively, Episcopal Bishop Van Duver said the plan is "disappointing, because it may jeopardize the harmonious relationship that has been growing between our two churches in recent years. "The difficulty is that the plan requires those priests who convert to be ordained again, and this appears to reopen the ancient controversy about the unwillingness of the Roman Catholic Church to recognize the validity of ordination in the Anglican Church." He said he hoped the new development will not interrupt progress, "because I feel that the vast majority of Roman Catholics and Anglicans want understanding

Are US Anglican ordinations invalid? Debate may reopen WASHINGTON (NC) The question whether Episcopalian clergy entering Catholic priesthood will have to be re-ordained is likely to reopen the debate about the validity of Anglican Orders.

The Catholic Church recognises the validity of Orthodox priests and bishop's ordinations but has not accepted Anglican orders as valid. The question continues to be debated, despite the declaration by Pope Leo XIIIin 1896that Anglican ordinations are invalid. Theologians disagree about During 1979, sixty six young men whether or not that declaration, in commenced studies for the priest- the bull, or most solemn form of hood in the Indonesian Island of papal document, titled "ApostoliFlores.

Pope Leo reached his conclusion in 1898 because of the defectiveness of the ritual used in the ordination of Anglican bishops and priests from 1 552 onwards, with slight modifications. That ritual was developed by Archbishop Thomas Cranmer of Canterbury, chief architect of the Protestant Reformation in England from 1547-53, with the assistance of English churchment who agreed with his views and several foreign reformers. Their writings show their agreement with Martin Luther, John Calvin and others in rejection of the Catholic doctrine of the Mass and the sacrificing priesthood and their denial of any real objective presence of Christ in the sacrament of the Eucharist. The ordination rite embodied their views. The Anglican ordination rite, Pope Leo said, not onl made "no clear mention of sacrifice, or consecration, or priesthood, of the power to consecrate and offer sacrifice, but, as we have already indicated, every trace of these and similar things remaining in such prayers of the Catholic rite as were not completely

reordination of the priests were required, that might be a setback." Raising a similar view was Atonement Father Charles LaFontaine, co-director of the Graymoor Ecumenical Institute, who asked, "Will they (the Episcopalians) be able to handle changes in the Roman Catholic Church." He said the decision "opened a can of worms" and seemed to be made without full consideration of consequences. "Perhaps that's the way the Holy Spirit works in the Church," Father Le-Fontaine said. Reasons why Episcopal clergymen may approach the Catholic Church are not clear. Rome says and friendship to grow between that it will judge each case individour two churches." ually.

"Moreover," he continued, "incapable as it was of conferring valid orders by reason of its original defectiveness, and remaining as it did in that condition, there was no prospect that with the passage of time it would become capabl eof conferring them." Pope Leo noted that Catholic authorities in the 16th, 17thand 18th centuries, considering Anglican ordinations, had found them defective in form. There have been calls for a re appraisal of Pope Leo XIII's stand. In 1978 Cardinal Hume of Westminster said: "I think it needs to look carefully again at `Apostolicae Curae' and its status. We need to study it to discover whether the historical background upon which it was working and the agrumentation upon which it was based is consonant with historical and theological truth as theologians and historians see it today."

Controversy on women in the priesthood

'ROOT EVIL THAT Cardinal asks Pope on nuns for MUST BE unity solidarity UTRECHT Holland (NC) — Pope John Paul II has committed himself to seeking the unity of Christian churches as "one of the primary tasks of the (Catholic) church," said Cardinal Jan Willebrands of Ultrecht, president of the Vatican Secretariat for Promoting Christian Unity. Contrary to the "suspicions and rather negative attitudes of some Catholics and brother Christians concerning the ecumenical understanding of the present Pope," Cardinal Willebrands said, the Pope had a "continuous and convinced commitment to the ecumenical task of the church." Cardinal Willebrands said that the Pope had strongly backed the ecumenical movement since his election to the papacy in October 1978. The Pope had missed no occasion to meet with representatives of other churches in his travels. Christian unity would c ome "from above, from wisdom as a gift of the Spirit, from compelling grace overcoming our hesitations and passions," Cardinal Willebrands said.

Peter Waltham found working in a bank so dull that he left after only eight weeks and had to cast around for another job. Thanks to a bet by a cricket mate, he f ound one. Radio announcing was the first rung on the ladder of his cl i mb to the top and he is now one of the bestknown personalities in WA television. And here he is likely to stay because he has already knocked back lucrative job offers from the Eastern States and o verseas.

Bank not for Peter Waltham

You probably would not be seeing Peter Waltham on your television set now if he had not accepted a $10 bet from a cricket mate that he could not get a job advertised in the paper for a radio announcer. He applied, got the job with 6IX, won the $10 and has graduated to the situation where he is now one of Channel 7's best-known personalities. This week's interview with him was not the normal run-of-the-mill affair. He apologised because at the appointed time he was unexpectedly called on to finish recording a station promotion for the Broadcasting Tribunal. The darkened lights not in operation hung like black fruit from the steel vine high above the studio floor as technicians took voice levels and r eadied the camera. Papier-mache mushrooms grew in the garden of a prop house near Fat Cat's Cubby and a telephone lay incongruously on the stump of an artificial tree as the men on the floor c ommunicated through their headsets with the director on "the bridge" above. Completion of the recording preceded a trek through the labyrinthine ways of the station to the clinical setting of a dressing room where Peter talked as he removed his makeup before the big mirror. He was born in Perth in 1942 and went to school at CBC Terrace and A quinas College where he got his Leaving. The monotony of working in a bank bore him down after only eight weeks and he left to join 6IX in 1961. While he was still announcing he got part-time casual job with Channel 7 in 1963. This involved him in working each day in radio from 4.30am to noon and in television from 4pm to midnight. "I was a jack-of-all-trades," he recalls, "but there were only about 60 People working here then and it was a lot of fun." Peter spent eight months of 1966 in Europe and the United Kingdom Where he played Lancashire League cricket. That, too, was a lot of fun. If the local professional was a fast bowler the home ground always had green-top wickets, and if he was a batsman they were always shirtfronts. Incidentally, the tall all-rounder reckons that the South Perth side of the mid -sixties with which he played A grade pennants was the best club team the WACA competition has seen, though it was beaten in the

By BOB BOYLE final. It included players like Barry Shepherd, Murray Vernon, Hartley Joynt, Ron Gaunt, John Parker, Ian Dick, Bruce Buggins and Barry Thornton — all of whom had played for the State. Undoubtedly the highlight of Peter's television career was his recent trip to Moscow to cover the Olympic Games: The resonant baritone of his voice goes up a shade with enthusiasm as he talks about it. He says that the controversial Games showed that politics and sport are now inseparable. The Olympic spirit meant nothing to the Iron Curtain competitors to whom winning was everything. There was the Russian diver, for instance, to whom the judges gave another dive after he had bellyflopped on the first. Australian Ian Campbell should have won the triple jump, but the judges disqualified him on a very doubtful technicality.

Today's People A weekly feature The win-at-all-costs philosophy was internecine and not directed solely against Western nations. This was shown as Roumanian gymnastics coach Bella Karoly went over and spat on the judges when his c harge, the favourite Nadia Comaneci, failed to win her event. Peter believes that two of the reasons for the Russians looking after the visiting news media as well as they did were that there were few Western telecasters there and the Australian team competed against the wishes of its government. The Hungarian-made electronic equipment he used was the best he had seen and the staging, timing, facilities, transport and accommodation were perfect. The Cosmos Hotel at which he stayed, the best in which he had ever

been accommodated, had been designed and built in France and shipped in pieces for assembly in the Russian capital in trips that covered a total distance of 22 million miles. One night Peter was dining at the Cosmos with former Olympians Ron Clarke, John Devitt and Ray Weinberg. The Russian waiter assigned to their table allegedly spoke English but the main ingredient of his vocabulary was the tired phrase "no worries", which he repeated ad nauseam. Each of the four asked for chicken noodle soup. When the waiter appeared to be having difficulty in comprehending the order, Peter held up four fingers and said "chicken noodle soup".

The waiter's face lit up, and witL yet another "no worries" he disappeared. Moments later he was back triumphantly with 16 chicken noodle soups — four for each of them. Peter, by the way, was the first man from Perth to be invited to participate in a network telecast of an Olympic Games. He has given up competitive cricket but after only 15 months of playing the game he has become hooked on golf. He must be doing pretty well because he was down to a handicap of 13 which has now been eased to 18 through his not having played while

he was away. And to the chagrin of his wife, the former Felicity James, he will be away again soon from their Mt. Lawley home and 20-months-old son James on a fortnight's holiday to be spent mainly on the golf course of the Sheraton Hotel at Molokai in the Hawaiian Islands, an area made famous by Father Damian's ministrations to the lepers. James, the light of the Walthams' eyes, was baptised in the Holy Rosary Church at Nedlands by Peter's school mate, Father Vincent Conroy. Peter is a member of the Highgate parish but he usually goes to the Cathedral because the Sunday mass timetable fits his work routine better.

Food, blankets etc for need Mrs Verona Russell is the wife of Mr Gerard Russell, the State president of the St. Vincent de Paul Society. The mother of eight children ranging in age from 13 to 29 years and the grandmother of three, she is a busy conference member. At the society's central collection depot which has been established at Osborne Park for 15 years her activities include sorting and packing donated goods which are sent to needy families and missions throughout the State.

items called for will be supplied free. With furniture, we always keep a supply here of what we regard as essentials such as beds, bedding, kitchen tables and chairs, prams and pushers for distribution to families that need them. The refugee officer at the Graylands Hostel keeps us informed of what families need as they move out of the hostel into their own accommodation.

Our motley collection of donations includes all sorts of things -bicycles, swings, watches, clocks, jewellery, clothing - and we don't waste a single thing. Our sewing ladies at Bronte Street cut up clothing that cannot be used again and make patchwork blankets out of them. In the first six months of this year they made 400 of them. In winter we cannot get enough blankets. We are also short of helpers, so please don't hesitate to volunteer. ** * An interesting project on which we have been engaged since February is a pilot scheme we are conducting on behalf of the C ommonwealth Government to allow young unemployed people of either sex aged between 15 and 25 to gain work experience. Some work here and we place others, without coming into conflict with the unions, in places such as school libraries and offices, hairdressing establishments, child care centres and old people's homes. It's marvellous to see how the

scheme is restoring the confidence of the young people, many of whom have had it eroded by applying unsuccessfully for job after job - in a lot of cases without receiving even an acknowledgement. * 5* The work here is not without its moments of humour. Voluntary helpers, for instance, dare not leave a pullover aside if they get hot working because it is likely to be packed into a case and sent off to some mission. I had a phone call the other day from an agitated man who wanted to know if we had discovered the horse's hoof. He explained that he had left it on a packing case at his home and been absent when our men in the truck called to pick the case up. We had a search but could not find it. It turned out that The Horse's Hoof was the name of a book he had put down and not the pedal extremity of a four-legged animal that we had been looking for. So if anyone finds The Horse's Hoof, please return it to us.

Thoughts onmigrants

by Polish bishop

Integration must be a natural process and cannot be forced. Second generation migrants may be more in need of special pastoral care than the first generation. These are some of the thoughts of a Polish bishop who although he is an auxiliary bishop to Cardinal W zsynski in Gniezno Poland, lives in Rome as specially in charge of Polish migrant communities. Bishop Szczepan Wesoly was in Perth briefly last week on his way to Melbourne for the dedication of a memorial to the Polish officers murdered by Russians in Katyn Forrest during the war. "Every migrant community is a small minority in a bigger population. Integration follows in the course of time but it must be a natural and not a forced process," he said. "In the Church, we thought that first generation migrants needed special pastoral care because Bishop Wesoly pictured with Polish Franciscan chaplain Father Boleslaw Smok at Maylands. they did not know the language but the problem is not as simple as that.

Post-war waves

For over a century Poland has sent out large migrant populations. The biggest wave of migration, the bishop noted, took place in the last century when hundreds of thousands of Poles, with many other European nationalities, went to America looking for work because the countries that had divided Poland were putting no investment into industry in the Polish border areas. Nearly half a million other Poles went to Brazil where they cleared forests and took up land for farming. Following the First World War that had devastated France's male population, large numbers of Poles, some 600,000, left the German Westphalian regions to settle in France during the 1930's. Following World War Two there was a new wave of migration caused not by economic but by ideological reasons after the Yalta agreement handed Poland over to the communist bloc. Hundreds of thousands of Polish servicemen then abandoned in Europe felt that they had no other way to protest other than by staying in the West and migrating, the bishop said. Most recently there has been a flow of Polish migrants into Germany and Austria from where many have moved on to Australia. In the United States in the last century, the Germans wre the first to set up the so-called nationalparishes. Others followed suit because the local parishes often sparsely settled were unable to cope with the new migrant groups.

Theatre and music ********************************************(

Now another si e The other side of the Edward and Mrs Simpson story is being played on stage at His Majesty's Theatre. Crown Matrimonial, which started its three week season last Monday, gives the royal side of the events over three months which lead to the abdication of King Edward VIII. Wallis Simpson makes no appearance in the play which takes its viewpoint from Queen Mary, the Dowager Queen. The play concentrates on royal discussion before the abdication and has had rave reviews around Australia. June Salter, who plays Queen Mary, was temporarily written out of the series The Restless Years to appear at His Majesty's. She will return to the series after the play finishes.

XTC; good timin

She describes her role in the play as a tremendous challenge and a highlight of her career. "I don't expect I will have this kind of luck again," she said. John Hamblin, coincidentally born in Windsor, plays Edward VIII the monarch who abdicated so that he could marry the twicedivorced Mrs Wallis Simpson. To him the play is not just about a man falling in love with a woman. It received a dignified and subtle nod of approval from Buckingham Palace after a copy was submitted for consideration. _ The author was sent a note thanking him for his courtesy. Mr Hamblin said. "To me it is fascinating stuff. It is a gentle piece about a family drama as well as all its political implications and challenge to the system," he said. The rest of the cast is Bevan Wilson as the Duke of York (George VI), Beth Child, the Duchess of York, Jules Kirby, the Princess, Royal, Faye Donaldson the Countess of Airlie, Kay Eklun, the Honorable Margaret Wyndham, Jean Koek, Duchess of Gloucester and Garrick Mather as the Queen's page.

As the British band XTC swings into its second Australian tour, the release of its fourth album couldn't be better timed. Black Sea is the album's title.

YOUTH FORUM

YOU ONLY HAVE TO ASK

I believe no youth has ever become involved in a function or activity unless he or she has been first asked. WheneverIask young people how they became involved they tell me that someone "roped" them in. What youth sometimes forget is that they too have a mission to ask one another. One recent evening,Iwas standing outside the Youth Office facing the Cathedral and noticed a young person waiting by the Cathedral gates. With Fr. John Jegorow After talking to her, it turned out that she had invited a new person to a function, had arranged to meet at the Cathedral gates so that they "come and see" what their group or forgotten to ask someone else to do could go together. organisation is on about. something.

ZAP .. .BANG ... POWEE ZING. The clubhouse has never looked so bright with the great BATTLESTAR GALACTICA entries you have sent in. You certainly have used your heads creating these space-age drawings. Even Captain Bob was delighted. He was so astonished with the response that he hung them all around the walls. It's now sparkling all over. The clubhouse looks like something out of Star Wars. But it has been a bit of a problem for Nurse Kerry. Every time the mail came, Captain Bob would open all the letters to add to the collection before Nurse Kerry could write the names down. But Nurse Kerry soon put an end to that by giving him a space age ZAP.

The quality of the Battlestar Galactica entries has so impressed Frank Monck of Astor Records that he's given us some more to give away. Above is the cover of this super album. So this week we want you to draw a picture of a space robot. Again use your imagination by using all sorts of things to decorate your picture. However we would like you to be careful with your colours. Unfortunately red and yellow do not reproduce well so if you could avoid those colours we would appreciate it. Well what are you waiting for. The show is on TV tonight so go to it.

Politics and religion are two of the most important areas of life and they are sometimes seen to be in conflict. Thisis particularly sowhen theChurch tries to promote its vision of a more just society.
