The Bishop's Easter Message

Dearly beloved in Christ, We celebrate today the beautiful Feast of the Resurrection of our Blessed lord from the dead. This is, indeed, "the day the Lord has made." We should "rejoice and be glad in it." (Psalm 116) Jesus the crucified, the Lamb of God, who by His death on the cross took away the sins of the world, has been. raised up. Death no longer holds sway over Him. Our Divine Savior has triump~d over the powers of sin and death and has risen gloriously from the tomb!

In the resurrection of the Lord, a new age has dawned upon the world.

By dying, Christ has .destroyed death for all who believe in Him. By .rising from the dead, He has restored all <;>f us to life. As the Apostle Paul reminds us, we too "have been raised up in company. with Chri~t." (Col颅 ossians 3) The hope of eternal life now shines upon us. And so today, on

this glorious Easter Feast, we renew together, as a Community of Faith, the promises of our Baptism. We reject sin, profess our faith in our Risen Lord.. and commit ourselves to live faithfully the new life which He won for us by His cross and resurrection in the hope of one day sharing ever颅 lasting life with Him in Heaven. This is the promise and hope of Easter.

I send Easter Blessings to one and all throughout the Diocese of Fall River, and I pray that our Risen Savior will bring to perfection the saving work which He has begun in us. May Christ our Lord shed Easter joy and peace upon us all.

Devotedly yours in Christ,

Bishop of Fall River

USCC head joins appeal

on Cape,

NEW YORK ~NC)-Archbishop John R. Roach of St. .Paul­ Minneapolis, president of the U.S. Catholic Conference, joined more· than 40 world religious' 'leaders in an international appeal April 1 for a nuclear weapons freeze and disarmament.

'Buddhism's Dalai Lama of Tibet, Russian Orthodox Patri­ arch Pimen of Moscow and Hin­ du Swami Chidananda of india were also signers -of the appeal, along with several Catholic car­ dinals and archbishops and a wide 'l'ange of other religious leaders;-4ncluding representatives of Judaism, Orthodoxy, Protest­ antism and various non-Christian. religions.

The appeal was released in New York by the interfaith peace group, Religious Task Force ­ Mobilization for Survival. It was addressed to adherents of all re­ ../ ligiolis beliefs who "are one in our belief. in the sacredness of life and the holiness of the earth."

Tied to the Second United Na­ tions Session on Disannament to be held at U.N. headquarters in ,New York this June, the joint letter asked governments, "espe­ cially the nuclear powers, to se­ _riously participate in this process and to address this task, to freeze and reverse the arms race as a first and crucial step toward disarmament.

The oJetter also asked "religious people ail over the world" to join in Choose Life Weekend May 28­ 30, just before the U.S. session opens.

On that weekend they asked people to "participate in inten­ . sive prayer, fasting, vigHs and other actions in their respective churches, mosques,pagodas, syn­ agogues, temples and holy places in the name of this sacred cause."

"This appeal ,goes out to the followers of the ·Buddhist, Chris­ tian, . Confucian,' Hindu, Jain, Jewish, Moslem, Shinto, Sikh, Taoist, Zoroastrian and indigen­ ous religious tradHions, as well as ,to al:I believers everywhere," the letter said.

Ca'tholic signers besides Arch­ bishop Roach included Cardinal 'Bernard AIfrink, retired' arch­ bishop of Utrecht, Netherlands, and a long-time leader of the In­ ternational Catholic peace move­ ment, Pax Christi; Archbishop Henri ·Legare of Grouard-McLen­ _nan, Aolberta, president of !the Canadian Conference of Cath­ olicBishops; Cardinal Paulo Eva­ risto Arns of Sao Paulo, Brazil; Cardinal Jaime Sin of Manila, Philippines; Sister Bette Moslan­ der, president of the U.S. Leader­ . ship CQnference of Women Re­ Hgious;; and Nobei Peace Prize winners cAdolfoPerez Esquivel of Argenti~a and Mairead Corrigan­ Maguire of Northern Ireland.

themoorin~ A Time for Truth

Many Americans feel the pain and suffering of the current economic recession. ,The woes of inflation, high interest rates and low productivity have alarmingly affected the 'job market. Many people now searching for work formerly believed that such a situation could never happen in these United States. Farmers face critical times, small businesses fail daily and even some large corporations are struggling for survival.

It may be that the current economic mess has some­ thing to tell us about ourselves as persons. Could it be that we have placed our hope in a world that is all too transient?

Would we dare admit that our desire for the "good life" was nothing more tha'n personal greed? Can we face the truth that the acquisition of material possessions has been the force driving the American ethic?

If these questions receive an affirmative response, may it be suggested that these days of economic recession could teach an' important lesson: that if we concentrate on the marketplace, forgetting all else, we are bound eventually, to face a crashing and crushing reality. Man survives but poorly when he loses his perspective and sells his soul for things that can only be seen, touched, taste~ and i~haled.

When idolatry of things is one's lifestyle, as seen., in the Saturday' Night Live syndrome, there are bound to be cries when, the bottom seemingly falls out of life.

The Easter hope

A joyous Easter to all! It's the time of year and of faith that gladdens our hearts and puts hope into our lives and families. Behind us are cold win­ ters, viruses, and Lent. Ahead are gardens and flowers, long sunsets, of chi:ldren playing out­ side, g,raduations and new begin­ nings.

I don',t have to stretch far to talk about ilie relationship be­ tween Easter and the seventh and fina,1 stage of family Hie ­ the coming together of genera­ tions. R's the stage when couples become ,grandparents, wi,th the joys and promise of new chHdren and old satisfaotions. J.ust as .the sober and reflective days of Lent end, so do the trials of earlier times in family life give way to the pleasures of enjoying chil­ dren without the responsibi:lity of rearing them.

I met a couple during Lent who spoke of their gratification of seeing values and traits pain­ fully inculcated in their own children showing up in their grandchildren. "TeH others not to judge their failures with their grown children too quickly," they said. "When we see how our children are trying to pass on ,the same values we tried to, we real­ ize tha't we did a pretty good job, although we didn't think so at the time."

This seventh stage has a triple

focus. Parents can 'look back at their 1ives and work with a de­ gree of completion and satisfac­ tion if they don't focus on their failures. Some do and that's sad because there are failures and droughts in every 'life. Focusing on them merely invites depres­ sion and despair.

Those in this stage of life are also entitled to enjoy the present bondedness of generations, ex­ periencing for the first time the reality -that we are all Hnks in the generations bf humankind.

They realize that they are an im­ po~tant part of their chHdren's and grandchi·ldren's future. With­ out their efforts, prayers, arid hope, the succeeding generations would be much different. They have put their stamp on future peoples.

A thiro focus is that of look­ ing ahead to a time when they wiU be parented by their chil­ dren. How able ,they are to per­ mit and even invite their chil­ dren to help them make decisions regarding their 1ives, housing and health makes a big difference in how they enjoy this state of fam­ ily 'life. If they accept the in­ evitability of dwindling energy and eventual death with hope, they will continue to serve as models for those who follow. If they approach old age and death with fear and bitterness, that, too, is the model they leave. ·1 was struck by this reality

Oth~r factors entered in, of course, but the model was there and his constant references to it during his lifetime tell us he was never really able to overcome his father's way out.

The day of the: bomb Mrs. Kimuko Laskey re­ membered that it was a beautiful morning the day the bomb dropped on Hiro­ shima.

She saw a B-29 go by, and then a flash. She feIt something on her face. She put her hands up "and my hands went right through my f~ce.

"I feIt I had ,lost aU the bones in my body," she said. "There was no way to go. I saw a man without feet, walking on his ankles. I passed out. By the time .J wake up, black rain was falling. We thought it was oil, the B-29s comi~g back to drop oil on us to burn us. !I couldn't see. I thought I was blind, but I got my eyes open, and I saw a beautiful blue sky and the dead city - nobody is standing up.

Nobody is walking around."

She somehow got to the hos­ pital. The doctor told her he had seen her outside, but "I thought you were dead."

By this time, Mrs. Laskey was weeping, . and so were most of the people in Room 1114 of the Dirksen Senate Office BuHding, where the first hearing on the Kennedy-HaHield nuclear freeze resolution was being held. A photographer standing in front of the wItness table put aside his camera, looking utterly stricken as the woman groped for words and control. Mrs. Las­ key's small body was shaking from head to toe. Her hair was quivering in the television lights.

The doctor told her, "We have no anesthetic." She said, "Leave me alone," but they sewed up her face with a big needle and placed her on' a door on the hall­ way fIoor.

People passing through stepped on the door and, because it still had the knob, it cocked, adding to her agony.

"I wanted to go home to my mother," she said piteously, in the tone of the 16-year-old sohoolgirl she was on Aug. 6, 1945. The silence in the room was heavy with her heartbreak.

Mrs. Hiroko Harris of Balti­ more, Md., whose misshapen mouth was reconstructed after the bombing that she experi­ enced when she was 13, said, "'I don't want anybody to have what I have had."

Mrs. Shigeko Sasamori, who was Mrs. Harris' schoolmate, said, "Why I live is really a miracle. . . . Perhaps I was spared to tell people who have never suffered what happened."

Mrs. Sasamori, who has had countless operations to repair her face, now works with new­ . born babies in a hospital ­ "They ,give me courage to go on," Dr. Mitsuo Tomosawa, who is now an optometrist in California, gave the most coherent account in polite rbut still bewildered tones. He saw a young mother with her clothes torn, pushing a

baby carriage. The baby had a piece of wood imbedded dn its cheek, but "the baby was not crying." He saw people walking with their arms extended, their knees slightly bent, staring ahead, moaning and crying. He saw a streetcar full of people sit­ ting and standing - "I lI'ealized all those people were dead."

Other survivors of Hiroshima have ,testified on Capitol Hill, but never with such powerful effect.

Sen. .paul Tsongas, D.JMass., said every member of the House and Sena'te should be strapped to their chairs and forced to Gisten.

Sen. Kennerly observed that dis­ cussion of megatonnage and throw-weight and the window of vulnerab~ity seemed beside the point.

Mrs. Laskey, in partiCUlar, laid waste Ito Reagan administration claims of ":limited," "winnable," "survivable" nuclear war. The Ibomb that shaUered her world was, as Sen. Mark Hatfield, R­ Ore., noted, "primitive," Reagan plans to build 17,000 more nu­ clear warheads and bombs with a thousand times the explosive force of the Hiroshima bomb.

Americans are now ready to listen to ,the Mrs. Laskeys. The . freeze is the fastest-growing po­ mical issue on the scene. Amer­ icans unrlerstand that if anything is to be done about the arms race, they must do it themselves civi~ rights and Vietnam taught them how governments are not up to great moral issues.

Three articulate clergymen fol­ lowed the survivors to the wit­ ness stand and, although there was really nothing to say, spoke eloquently of the moral impera­ tive of preventing a recurrence of the horrors just recounted.

Bishop Roger Mahony, the Cath­ olic bishop of Stockton, Calif., said that the nuclear approach of the Reagan administration be­ spoke "arrogance, aridity of feel­ ing and moral bankruptcy." .Bishop James Armstrong of the National Council of Churches no.ted "an absence of tragic so­ phistication," and Rabbi Walter Wurzburger, president of the Synagogue CQuncil of America, defended the right of the clergy to speak out on Doomsday, de­ spite their unacquaintance with the technical detail that is used by government officials to put down the freeze.

"The experts got us where we are today," IBishop Armstrong remarked mildly. iMrs. Laskey got home to her mother on that beautiful morn­ ing after the bomb was dropped that within 9 seconds killed or doomed 100,000 people.

And 37 years later she' brought home the realities of a nuclear explosion to everyone who could hear her voice and share her tears.

Dear Editor: It was a moving experience to hear the Fall River Diocesan Choir in their perfonnance of -"The Seven Last Words' of Christ" at the Cathedral Church on Sunday, March 28. The sensi­ tive rendition by the soloists, chorus and orchestra was worthy of high praise, thanks to the demand for excellence made by .their distinguished director, Mr. Giuttari. .

,Music suit ruling favorsFEL CHICAGO ~NC)-A U.S.' ap­ peals court has ruled against the Chicago Archdiocese by revers­ ing the decision of a lower court which ha,d dismissed at a $1.5 million copyright infringement suit brought by F.E.L. Publica­ tions of Los Angeles.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit ruled in Chi­ cago on March 25 that F.E.L.'s anmial copy license "is a re~son­ able and flexible tool for dealing with ,the unique problems asso­ ciated with the Roman Catholic liturgical music market."

The annual copy license "gives copyright holders protection and compensation and it allows indi­ vidual parishes to produce cus­ tom-maoe hymnals at a reason­ able cost," the three-judge panel said. The judges said the annual copy license' "was not developed in a vacuum; it grew out of a his· tory of copyright infringements, and was designed to protect mu­ sical copyrights in a market where infringement is not easy to detect and harder to preyent."

'F.E.L. had alleged that the archdiocese had infringed on 21 federal copyrights to Hoturgical hymnals and songbooks' owned

by F.E.L. Copyright is the ex­ clusive legal right to make copies: In March 1980 another copy. right infringement suit, for $8.6 million, against the National Conference of Catholic Bishops and U.S. Catholic Conference was settled without any admis­ sion of Jiability.

The NCCB-USCC accepted set­ tlement tenns from F.E..L. which had proposed sending a letter to the Catholic bishops around the United States and the publica­ tion of the letter' in the news­ letter ·issued by tl)e bishops' Committee on the Liturgy.

the professions or in business with his intellectual" curosity coupled with the breadth of his cultural interests. Music, the, dramatic arts, the Greek and Latin, classics, philosophy, the­ ology, J)istory made particularly vital by its relevance to current events, all engrossed him. , Thus, he not only defended Hie, but he cherished and nur­ tured the capacity of the human person to enjoy and enrich God's basic magnificent endowment. In . his home, among his books or at his table, he was the embodiment of the gracious host and delight­ ful companion.

He loved his country and served gravely in her defens~ in wartime. He loved his religion.

The Roman Catholic Church was to him truly Mother and Teach­ er. He aoved the institutional Church as a man loves his mother. He studied the precepts of the magisterium wi,th a learned and con!jcientious insight into their meaning and their practical application.

His professionaI life would have had ,less trauma and his personal resources might have been greatly augmented if he. had compromised his ethical principles, and yielded ever so little to the expedient. The mod­ ern world offered him many re­ wards for just a small sacrifice of principle, and in all the pro­ fessions, medicine as weB as law and even theology there were ample accolades, professional } and academic, for the time ser­ vers and the equivocators.

Dr. "Bill" Lynch stood firm.

He was no man to run after a popular bandwagon headed in· the morally wrong direction.

No man ,could have borne so many burdens, caroo compassion­ ately for so many people, va,l­ iantly defended so many sound positions without a happy home where love and 'life were durably and radiantly reflected in the de­ votion of his wife Mary, his daughters 'and sons.

BALTIMORE (NC) - A como. pany whose stock in trade will be the "production" and "sale" of newborn babies is set to open in Baltimore,Jlnd church offi­ cials and theologians have all is­ sued moral objections to the idea.

Called the Miracle Program Inc., the company will begin pro­ viding "surrogate mothers" for couples unable to bear children.

Those persons unwilling to wait years for adoption - and with $25,000 in hand - will select a woman who will be artificially inseminated by the· husband.

Following birth the infant will be ~turned over to the man and woman who have paid to call the child their own.

While the arrangement osten­ sibly answers deep-rooted human needs, theologically it is seen differently.

"The' question, is simple: it's immoral," said passioriist Father Neil J. O'Donnell, the ,Baltimore archdiocesan director of health ministry, who observed that a tenn for the practice is "womb for rent."

Sulpician Father Philip Keane, asso~iate professor of moral theology at St. Mary' Seminary and University; said he is "quite. strongly against (surrogate motherhood) . ;. There is a div­ ision of 'the entire sphere of re­ productive activity from that of marital activity. It is an un­ reasonable splitting of two spheres.

"My sense is' that Roman . Catholic theologians are univer­ sally opposed" to the practice, added Father Keane. He also ac­ . knowledged 'some ·pa.i"aUeJ~ .be­ tween surrogate mothering and in vitro ·fertilization. , The latter practice, in which a woman's egg is fertilized out­ side her womb by her husband's

uestion corner,

By Father JohD Dietzen Q. We moved to another and smaller parish several months ago. On Ash Wednesday we were surprised to find lay people giv­ ing out ashes. We always had priests give them. Isn't 1I:here some rule that says only priests should do this? The lay people were some of those who usually help give Communion. (Louisi­ ana) A. Most Catholics probably would be as surprised as you, since few parishes have used lay ministers for bestowal of ashes up to now. But the practice you eperienced is perfectly legitimate and quite in accord with 'the church's liturgical regulations.

In a response to the American Bishops' Committee on the Litur­ gy, dated Jan. 30, 1975, the sec­ retary of the pope's Congrega­ tion for Sacraments and Divine Worship indicated that, "Extra­ ordinary (eucharistic) ministers cannot bless the ashes but may assist the celebrant in their im­ position, and even, if there is no priest and the ashes are already blessed, impose them."

Deacons aiso may assist in giving ashes, even though they are not. mentioned', explicitly in this response. In fact, the res­ pon~e would provide also for other lay persons to help distrib­ ute the ashes if there is real pastoral need.

Most pastors are somewhat reluctant to ask their special eu­ charistic ministers to assist with the ashes, partly I suppose, out of concern for the sensibilities of their parishioners who, as you, would find it startling.

parts of the country, partly in­ spired I imagine by the same newscasts that confused you.

You seem to remember your high school marriage class well, but for those who don't we should make sure of the differ­ ence between sterility and impo· tence.

An individual is sterile, in the legal sense of the word, when he or she is incapable of parenting, a child because of a defect in the natural internal process of gen­ ertion; in other words, in the elements of that process that are involuntary. A man who pro· duces no sperm, for example, or a woman who has no ovaries, is said to be sterile.

Impotence, on the other hand, is the inability to have sexual intercourse because of some phy­ sical or emotional defect.

must be absolute, in the sense that it is permanent, with' no hope of.-ehabilitation that might in the future make sexual rela­ tions possible for that individual.

The bishop and other officials of the diocese involved received medical opinions from some of the best authorities in the coun­ try that such absolute impotence is very rare.

Rehabilitation techniques for people who suffer from paraly­ sis reIalted impotence (as the man did in this case) are improving all the time. All experts con­ sulted suggested that these im­ provements hold out some hope here. Where there is any such hope; the impotence is legally doubtful and the couple have a right to marry.

This was the final decision made by the bishop. He gave no special permission or dispensa­ tion. He 'simply followed basic principles of our church laws (imd, incidently, of some civil .laws) and told the couple they . were free to marry in the Cath­ olic Church. .

You are right that impotence is an impediment to a valid mar­ riage. As you know, however, time is not available in a l)igh school religion class to examine many details. And one detail is vitally important in this case.

In order fo~ it to be an impedi. ment to marriage, impotence,

But it is allowed. Possibly the explanation in your case is the fact that you are now in a small­ er parish; if there are fewer priests than in your previous par­ ish (perhaps only one), it may be necessary for your pastor to utilize the assistance of lay min­ isters more often.

Our experience of this need will doubtless increase with the greatly decreasing number of priests.

First there, was an exorcism, then the cure of Simon's mother­ in-law, foHowed by a statement of various cures an4 exorcisms.

All were calculated by Mark to illustrate Jesus' victorious com­ , ba't wi,th evil. Now comes the most ,impressive victory of all, the cure of a leper. ' According to beliefs of, the day, it was as difficult to cure leprosy as to «'8ise the dead ­ tantamount,to saying it was im­ possible. 'But what was impos-

s~ble' for a, human being, Jesus 'accomplished with a simple touch arid simple words: "Be cured!"

Since 'leprosy was regarded 'like death, this healing was a sign of the ultimate victory of Jesus over death itself.

Simple as the story seems, it has inconsistencies. When the 'leper approaches, we read that Jesus was "moved with pity."

However, the original reading was "moved with anger."

Why should Jesus have been angry?

Behind ~he,present form of the story, there were probably two , stories: one involving a simple healing, the other an exorcism.

II

In the latter version, Jesus would have been angry at the "demon" believed the cause of the illness.

This is borne out by the fact that, immediately following the cure in Mark's story, Jesus gives the demon a stern warning and "sends him, on his way." The lat­ ter phrase literally is "drove him out." Both the warning and the expulsion would apply much more naturally to an evil spirit than to the afflicted man. . ' Mark, not too adroitly but very effectively, combines the healing story and the exorcism story to give us the present powerful nar­ rative.

An outstanding statesman of -this centurY was Dag Hammar­ . skjo~d, secretary-general of the United Nations from 1953 until his death in 1961 in a plane crash ·in Africa while on a peace mission.

A man of remarkable moral in­ tegrity and a true humanitarian, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize after his death.

When Hammarkjold's diary, "Markings," was published after his death, many were surprised that its contents dealt not with his life as. a world ~eader, but wi,th his personal journey of faith. ·In a letter to a friend in which he left permission for the diary's

publication, he referred to it as the "white book" - the official document ....,. of his negotiations with himself and with God.

"Stand up here in front," Jesus said gently. Malachi went and stood beside Jesus. He felt very uncomfortable and put his de­ formed hand behind his back.

Jesus placed his hand on the young man's shoulder then, turn­ ing to the two men, asked, "Is it permitted to do a good deed on Ithe Sabbath - or an evil one?"

To preserve life - or to destroy it?"

The two men were silent.

Jesus knew they were trying to trap him. Their hostility angered and saddened him.

But ,turning to Malachi, the anger left Jesus' face. "Stretch out your hand," he said. As Ma­ lachi did so, he felt Jesus' love and power.

Then the youth gasped. All the, people gasped with him, ,turning to one another in amaze­ ment. "His hand is no longer shriveled :up. God healed him through Jesus' words," Malachi thanked Jesus and praised God with all his heart.

Prior to Jesus' entry into

Jesusalem, he was walking, un­

accompanied by his disciples. We imagine here, as the crowds be­

gan to gather, that if a scornful

Roman had been present, he might well have asked of the eager crowds, "What came ye out to see?"

There is little doubt that Jesus wore that day, as throughout his • ministry, t~e simple .raiment of a Galilean peasant. Even these clothes, we. may be sure, were worn and faded. But kingship does not dwell in· royal robes, but in royalty of person, and can one truly say that on that day the onlookers did not feel the

simple dignity of Jesus?

Thinking about the entry into Jerusalem, we see the road from Bethany to the holy city winding around the shoulder of Olivet along·the edge of a deep valley, so that th'ere is no view of Jeru­ salein till more than half the journey is completed. .

Fertile gardens clothe these slopes, with here and there. al­

mond .and palm trees. The gen.eral. effect. is of seclusion and rural peace. There is no hint of the neighborhood of a great met­ ropolis. Then the· road abruptly bends to the right;. a narrow pla­ teau of rock is reached, and with dramatic suddenness the city is revealed.

Jerusalem is a city set upon a hill, or rather an isolated bas­ tion of rock. As 'one looks' down on domes, turrets and' towers;. there is a magical effect Bathed' in hues of gold and purple, the city is dreamlike.

One .comprehends the Apoca­ lypse picture of. a new' Jerusa­ lem, let down from heaven, glow­ ing with precious jewels and purple raiment.

It was this beautiful city that Jesus looked .upon with the brooding eye of the prophet.

Utter sadness fell upon his heart.

"And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it," says St Luke. Jesus sawall too clearly the end to which events were moving. He could have prevented it had the people listened. A priesthood in­ vigorated by his teachings would have taught that one does not rule the world by force of arms but by the force of truth. But that day the ..worst part was chosen and Jesus went over the city.

We sense a chill falling on the multitude, as though an icy wind had issued from sunshine.. What turned the· exultant crowd. of' Palm Sunday around into a re­ vengeful one? Is anything more fickle than a crowd? It is not really strange that those who began the week with hosannas. should conclude it with cries of HCrucify him!"

We must not think of Jesus' entry into Jerusalem as a fiasco.

But we ~o get an impression of solitude for Jesus as the day nears its close. We picture a grieved and majestic silence, as one who says farewell to a fami­ liar scene.

The New Bedford skaters edged South, 2·1, in that game 'last Sunday night but needed double overtime to turn the trick.

Paul King scored for New Bed­ ford with only three seconds re­ maining in the first period on an unassisted goal. • ~t 11 :30 of the

second period Chris Heaslip passed a loose puck to Dave No­ brega, who passed to Paul Ho­ gan, who netted the equalizer for FaB River South.

Both teams had scoring oppor­ ,tunities in the last period of regu­ lar play and in the first overtime but the goalies' were up to the challenge and the game went into a second overtime stanza.

New Bedford won the game on AI Harwood's goal at 3:07 of the period.

The second game is scheduled fol' 9 p.m. Sunday in the Driscoll Rink, Fall River.
