ROTEST ON A NEWS PROTEST PP tion

The consecration of a bishop is a sufficiently great occasion in the life of the Church not to depend for recognition only on the comparative infrequency of such events. With the steady expansion of the hierarchy and the developing role of auxiliary bishops there is on average at least one such Catholic in Australia each year. But for the city and diocese of Geraldton it has been an emotional coming of age, as Bishop Foley was consecrated and installed in the cathedral of St Francis Xavier that had waited so long to see such a day.

from Leo Sheridan, Tuart Hill

The ceremony would gladden the hearts of Bishop Kelly who in 1916 inspired a convert architect in Rome to come out and dream with him for a cathedral which would stand on what were, for decades to come bleak sand dunes on the fringe of a modest town.

Sir, That front page headline O pposition to new US Bomb (The Record, August 20) has That vision and determination of Bishop now been repudiated by Mr Kelly and his successors and the indefatiga- B.A. Santamaria in no uncertain ble church constructions of Monsignor Hawes somehow spoke for the unsung manner in News Weekly of Sepheroes — the priests, brothers sisters and - tember 2. let

Catholic laity who were determined not to a vast, lonely territory stand between them and founding Christ's Body in their communities. Bishop Foley has inherited a territory no less vast but which is criss-crossed by jet airliners and satellite communication only 100 years since Father Lecaille was evangelising Champion Bay on prodigious horse journeys from Northampton to Dongara.

The Second Vatican Council probably attempted the impossible when it sought to define the perfect bishop — impossible because only a foolhardy man would want to walk in the shoes of the Twelve— impossible because people tend to want of a bishop the wisdom, prowess, holiness and selfsacrificing humility they would never demand of themselves. Holy Orders and marriage have always been seen in the sacramental vision because the bond and commitment that each entails can only be the merest external expression of the deeper Mystery of Christ. A s with a couple launching out into marriage, so a bishop launches out into the unknown when he takes charge of a diocese. The security and success of the generation that has preceded is abundantly obvious; the need for the assuring hand of God for the future is clear.

particular attention to the very sector that is beginning to confront the Church in Australia today, the lapsed, the indifferent, the people for whom faith is but a flicker, the people who do not know Christ at all.

The strongest prayer for Bishop Foley was in the outstetched hands of Bishop Francis Xavier Thomas' as they pressed down in ordination on his successor's head last Wednesday ni.qht. For the veteran it was truly a moment of joy, fulfilment and peace that he had lived to see the day of his successor, and that hand in hand he would pass on what he too had received from the Lord. In his retirement he deserves to bask in the sunshine of acclaim for the unity and fidelity he bestowed on the diocese of Geraldton over t wo decades and he is reassured by widespread acclaim that the Holy Spirit has raised up a man of talent to equal if not surpass his energies.

he Saints to Suby

Today's People

A weekly feature By BOB BOYLE

From as far back as he can remember Brian Sierakowski loved A ustralian rules football but his New Zealander father, a rugby union devotee, reckoned that the youngster would never be any good at the Aussie game. Trying to prove his father wrong became a challenge for Brian, who was a Collingwood fan.

But after having met some St Kilda players he decided to try out with that club and played his first league game with the Saints at the age of 17 in 1963. It was the. start of a distinguished career for the strapping young fellow. His period with St Kilda lasted until the end of the 1967 season. They were in the 1965 grand final and in 1966 they beat Collingwood by a point to win St Kilda's first premiership flag after 69 years of trying. With the Saints, Brian played mainly in a back pocket watching the resting ruckman, but sometimes he was stationed elsewhere in the backlines or used as a ruck-rover. He reckons that the game has changed considerably in Victoria since his day. It is much quicker and does not rely on having so many big men in the team. The call now is for a big, intelligent ruckman who is mobile and agile backed up by smaller ruck-rover types because the game is about 60 per cent faster. Consequently numbers of big men t hrough sheer size are not required. Brian came to WA fairly early in 1967 to play a pre-season practice game with the St Kilda touring party that was on its way to South-East Asia. At a function after the game he met a local girl nanked Wendy Glachvin-Grove. Prolonged correspondence plus an e xtended stay for Wendy in his family's Melbourne home followed and they were married here on February. 14 (St Valentines Day) 1968. He started the 1968 season with Subiaco and took some time to get used to the openness of the game and the lack of man-to-man pressure compared with Melbourne while he played initially as a ruck-rover and later as centre-half-back or centrehalf-forward. Some of his Subiaco team-mates were players of the calibre of Peter Eakins, Hayden Bunton, Brian Sarre, the late Cam Blakemore, Austin R obertson, Reg Hampson, Col Williams and Peter Metropolis. In 1973 he was a member of the Subiaco team which won the club's s first premiership for 49 years.

BRIAN MADE IT To THE TOP By WORKING HARD Mr Brian Cosmas (Sirra) Sierakowski is a Perth solicitor and a director of the Subiaco Football Club in whose premiership side he played in 1973 after having transferred from St. Kilda. Born in Melbourne on November 1, 1945, of a New Zealand father, Ralph, and Victorian mother, Maureen, he is a member of a family of 12 childen, one of whom was adopted. R alph had a hotel at Brighton near Melbourne for 34 years until selling out about eight years ago and he is now one of the chief fund-raisers for the Catholic Church in Victoria and is active in the Serra Club which encourages vocations to the priesthood. Brian started his education at the Koska Hall preparatory school to Xavier College before going on to the main college where he stroked the head-of -the-river rowing crew for three years and was a member of the first football XVIII and the athletics team. He studied law at Melbourne University for three years, completed his Li .B degree at the University of WA in 1970 and was admitted to the bar in 1972. He and his wife Wendy (formerly Gladwin-G rove) have three children — Adam (11), Lara (9), and Davis (6). The family normally worships at St Cecilia's Church in Floreat Park where Brian was formerly a reader. This gave rise to an interesting statistic. Former St Kilda team-mate Ross Smith was Subiaco's captaincoach and he and Brian, both having played in St Kilda's premiership side of 1966, had been in premiership teams in Victoria and WA which between the two clubs had not won a premiership for 118 years. (Guinness Book of Records, please take note.) The big solicitor looks back on playing in Saints sidesswith men like Daryl Baldock, Ian Stewart (three Brownlow Medals), Verdun Howell, Ross Smith (Brownlow Medallist), Alan Morrow, Carl Ditterich and Kevin ("Cowboy") Neale. "On Thursday nights," Brian says of his days with the Saints, "I used to sit nervously on a bench hoping and praying that I would be selected. Somehow or other I always managed to scrape into the team.

"I was never a talented footballer, but I was always dedicated and determined to do my best. "It is ironic that with St Kilda and Subiaco I played in something like 12 final-round games yet South Melbourne star Bobby Skilton, probably one of the greatest rovers of all time, played in only one final-round game in 17 years. "I have always believed that dedication and hard work, two assets I was born with, count for more than skill in the long run. How often do you see brilliant young players give the game away on their course up from junior ranks to the top?" He modestly omits to mention that in St Kilda's memorable premiership win by one point over Collingwood • in 1966 he was voted by all judges either second or third best man on

the ground. Not bad for an "untalented player." He says that the key to the success of the great St Kilda teams he played for was on-the-field comradeship — the certain knowledge that the man next to you was prepared to shed his blood for you even though the team as a whole was not necessarily starstudded. This same attitude pervaded the Subiaco side that won the flag in 1973. "It is gradually coming back at Subiaco now," he says. "Watch us in 1982."

A busy solicitor, Brian is not prepared to talk much about his legal work because of the ethical constraints his profession lays on him. "Just say I do a lot of third-party insurance cases, some crime and common law practice," he says. The practice of his profession plus about 15 hours a week he spends on his directorship at the Subiaco Football Club and taking his children to weekend sporting engagements leave him with so little time that on occasions he has even forgotten his wedding anniversary until he is reminded by you-know-who.

VIOLENCE

bloody rampage by street gangs

LOS ANGELES (NC) — Streets of Anger, Streets of Hope, a TV documentary, is the result of Jesuit Father Terrance Sweeney's pastoral experience with the tragedy of E ast Los Angeles youth gangs. The documentary is based on the book he wrote on the gang problem. Father Sweeney's experience with gangs started several years ago after he was ordained in 1973 and the bishop suggested he spend the summer in a rough part of town. "A few things related to gangs happened there, but they didn't affect me immediately," he recalled. The next year he wrote a script based on East Los Angeles for an episode of the TV programme Barnaby Jones. "I was introduced to several gang members," said Father Sweeney, "I talked to one man 21 years old, who had been in gaol for three years. He told me how 15 of his friends had been killed. They were killed because they had walked into another gang's neighborhood," said the priest.

Father Sweeney, who is from the Los Angeles area, realised that the gang situation was complex. "A screenplay doesn't give you enough hard data," he said. "I decided I'd step out of my normal medium and write a book," he said. "I wanted to convey in a book some of the emotional impact, the futility and anger I had felt. "I interviewed kids and the parents of kids who had been killed. I interviewed sheriff's deputies and gang street workers." Father Sweeney said he also looked for social and economic data. Father Sweeney said he was impressed by Philadelphia's practical plan "to keep kids from killing and stabbing each other." By this time he was convinced that stopping the rapidly intensifying violence wasthe first priority, before dealing with social and economic matters. Father Sweeney consulted Cardinal Manning of Los Angeles who urged him to write and produce a documentary on the gangs. Filming began in June 1980 and continued until January 1981.

High school students need to ask themselves how much they spend a week on smokes, discos, junk food and entertainment. Those on unemployment benefits could still donate proportionately. The members of the Catholic Youth Council and all youth who have seen the proposed plans are delighted with the project.

Mr Ted Barrow who has been a quadriplegic since 1948 and who was featured on the front page of Ttfe Record last week inaugurating the ramp at St Peter's church, has put modern t echnology to a simple,practical use. The ramp enables him to move, with the help of a friend, from his car to a wheelchair. Mr Barrow operates the electric hoist raising him from the wheelchair (right) which is then r emoved by an assistant. With the wheelchair removed (below left), he then swings his body into the car seat, lowering the electric hoist at the same time. A n, assistant folds up the apparatus (below right) which hinges simply on a bracket (arrowed) fixed to the car frame inside the passenger door.
