The Record, May 14-20, 1981
Pallottine priests working in WA were recently bereaved. F ather Michael McMahon of Broome returned to Melbourne for the death and burial of his mother, Mrs Dorothy McMahon. She was 85 and died on the 59th anniversary of her marriage to the late R euben McMahon, who died in 1979. Father McMahon is the youngest of their four sons; they also had four daughters. At the funeral Mass in St. Mary's Church, H ampton, Father McMahon spoke of his mother's unconditional love for her husband, her children, grand and great-grandchildren. He said that she had that rare capacity of making deep and longlasting friendships due to her .spirit of genuine Christian hospitality. Her simple faith and piety was expressed through her constant prayer, and the daily recitation with her husband of the rosary. Father Bryan Tiernan, chaplain to Aborigines of the archdiocese, was travelling to a conference in NSW and could not be contacted with the news of his mother's death, in Sydney. Mrs Delia Tiernan was 89 at the time of her death. She was well known for her work with the Pallottine Auxiliary in Sydney and with other Catholic activities such as the C atholic Women's League. She is survived by two sons and a daughter.

Christian Brothers in this country Vocations today th er e because Is an ever-increasing need
A series presented in conjunction with the Religious Vocations Council of WA.
The Christian Brothers exist in Australia today because there is an ever-growing need in this country to compassionately develop the Christian faith of people, many of them living in social and economic difficulties, according to Brother Kevin Ryan.
"Education is still a major issue in the Church today, because it is through the right sort of education, not necessarily or exclusively in schools, that faith can be encouraged and developed.

$300,000 spent on abortion ads R OME — The Italian Communist Party is investing a bout $300,000 and a major portion of its prestige in an effort to defeat two abortion -related referendum proposals.
T he Communist Party, Italy's second largest political party, has hired a professional advertising agency to c oordinate its campaign, designed to leave intact Italy's three-yearold abortion law, which allows state-paid abortions virtually on demand to women over 18 in the first three months of pregnancy. The campaign call for "no" votes on both proposals. One, supported by the Italian Movement for Life, w ould place greater restrictions on abortion. The other, sponsored by the Radical Party, w ould remove most of t he current legal hindrances to abortion. The Communist Party is blanketing the nation With advertising pos-
ters, handouts, magazine and newspaper ads and spots on 196 private television stations. The main theme of the campaign is: "to abrogate the abortion law is like legalising clandestine abortions." A two-page ad in several of Italy's national circulation magazines pictures a blindfolded woman and says that the "so-called movement for life...did not exist when women were dying from clandestine abortions." The advertisment also criticises the Radical Party proposal as "irresponsible."
Campaign Enrico Berlinguer, secretary of the Italian Communist Party, officially opened the campaign April 26 at a rally in front of Holy Cross Cathedral, in Florence, Italy.
"We are not proponents of abortion because we consider abortion an evil for the traumas it produces in women and for the harm it causes to the social body," Berlinguer said. "If we defend the law it is because this (law) tends to give remedy to that evil." Pope John Paul II has s trongly backed the Italian Bishops Conference in its campaign in favor of the Movement for Life proposal. The April 26 edition of L'Osservatore Romano, the Vatican clailS, newspaper, carried a brief statement by Cardinal Ugo Poletti, papal v icar for Rome, strongly condemning any Catholic priest who speaks out in favor of the abortion law. "I have been repeatedly informed that some priests of the Diocese of Rome, or living here, in recent days in
various ways, both in Rome and elsewhere, have participated in debates or press conference or have written in favor of the law which legalises and supports abortion in Italy," the cardinal's statement said.

Mrs Bernadette Giambazi (nee Barnett) was born at Merredin in 1937 and started her education at the one-teacher school at Walgoolan where her family were farming. One of the eight children of Les and Eileen Barnett, she was a boarder at Sacred Heart High School, Highgate, for five years before going to the Claremont Teachers' Training College. She taught at the Merredin Primary School for six years, for the last two of which she was principal mistress, before marrying Perth man Arthur Giambazi who was then working for Wesfarmers at Merredin. The mother of five daughters ranging in age from 17 to four, she was the first president of the Majellan Group at Nedlands to which she still belongs and a member of the State executive for two years. She was the first secretary of the Nedlands Parish Council and has been deeply involved in the area as a catechist. In this capacity she taught at the Dalkeith Primary School, in the after -school classes at the Loreto Convent and the parish hall. She organised family camps to prepare the children for the sacraments and she was one of the mothers who started the children's liturgy on Sundays. The children attend this liturgy in the parish hall before joining their families in the church after the homily for the rest of the Mass. Mrs Giambazi conducts the Nedlands Day-Care Centre in Williams R oad.
She feels for burden borne by...parents The eight years that she has spent conducting the Nedlands Day-Care Centre have given Bernadette Giambazi a deep sympathy for young mothers with young families. They are subjected to all sorts of pressures, she says.
Most women work in some way and the mother who chooses to stay at home to look after her children is sometimes made to feel like a secondclass citizen, which she definitely is not. Bernadette feels deeply for mothers who have to go to work and leave their small children.
Relaxed "At this centre we see a lot of single mothers and fathers," she says. "That is one of the reasons why we try to create a home atmosphere here. "The children can go home relaxed so that they can enjoy their parents' company and the parents theirs. "It is not so much the time that the children spend "But now the youngsters with their parents that is question their parents important, but the qualand teachers constructity of that time." ively."

National conference
The Twenty-eighth YCW National Confer ence will be held in Adelaide from May 16-23. The West Australian delegates are Kate McAdam, Gemma Wooltorton, Steven Barton, Peter Shooter and Fr John Jegorow. Cathy Hynes will be representing the Bunbury diocese. Delegates to the Council have spent the past two months gathering the experiences and ideas of young people about the situations youth faces at home, at work and in leisure. The Council will examine YCW actions taken over the past two years. It will evaluate them and decide on a national course of action and direction for the next two years. Two years' ago unemployment was seen as the most urgent area of injustice among youth. In some places up to thirty percent of unemployment is from the youth sector of the community. With little or no improvement in the unemployment situation, Pictured are: Back row; Gemma Wooltorton, Peter Shooter, front; Fr John this matter will again be Jegorow, Steve Barton and Kate McAdam. prominent.

RIDING ON A CREST The Catholic Parish Youth Movement has adopted a crest and motto.
The motto adopted is "I am the vine you are the branches". This is taken from the fifteenth chapter of St John's gospel. We believe it significantly expresses the spirituality and service of our movement. The Lord is the source of our all life, he nourishes his branches, his people. Young people are called to action to. spread the Good News through youth groups and are called to remain in his love and not to cut themselves off from the vine. The crest was designed by Donna Woodman and Fr Jegorow and symbolises the theme: it tries to capture the nature of our apostolic work. The cross represents our christian faith and reminds us of the fact that God, the Father sent his Son to die

We hope the crest will also remind us to aspire to be faithful and aware Catholics. Fr Jegorow said "I am delighted with the high ideals that the CPY movement have expressed in the symbol adopted. It is indeed a rich symbol, full of meaning. It speaks of the unity that we should all be striving for, unity with Christ the true vine and unity with one another.

Colt won in raffle
Two Perth trotting fans will know how it feels to be on the other side of the trotting fence this year as they prepare to place bets on their own horse rather than someone else's.
They are the lucky winners of the Appealathon colt raffled for Appealathon 1981, which raised $10,200 towards the final total of $1,441,692 for v arious WA charity organisations. Mr Ken Reddy, a regular visitor to the local trotting events, was the person whose ticket was drawn in the raffle on the Sunday of Appealathon. He said "I've always wanted a trotter and was going to buy one recently but decided to wait a while.
Before being presented to its new owners are (from left): Chris Pye and Anne Lofthouse, Treasurer and Secretary of the WA Standard Breeders Assoc., Ron Porter, President of the Assoc., andPeter Hodgson, the Vice-President; look over the colt.

Science near proof on Turin cloth 'We can conclude for now that the shroud image is a realhuman form. It is no product of an artist.'

An official report from scientists which comes one step closer to declaring the Shroud of Turin an authentic human burial cloth was welcomed by Jesuit Father Francis L. Filas, a theologian who has studied the relic for 30 years.
