GAME, SET AND MATCH!

Mention the word "Tennis" and many a face wi l l break into a smile. It is a pleasurable smile for whether we are mem-bers of the local tennis club or only bounce a ball over a makeshift net in the back garden, it is a game much loved by all. Tennis is also an evocative word which conjures up visions of long hot days in summer, of excited crowds, ball boys, umpires, strawberries and cream and of course, Wimbledon.

Who would have thought that a form of entertainment invented by a man named Major Wingfield in 1873 as an attraction for guests at a house party in Wales, would de-velop into one of the four most popular games in spec-tator sport and one of the biggest, most important champ-ionships in the world. Yes, Wimbledon is a magic world, a world which guarantees compulsive telly viewing, no matter what the weather. It is also the ultimate goal of potential Wimbledon stars, and to be chosen to play there is an im-possible dream. For Caitriona McCarthy, the impossible dream has come true.

The McCarthy's came to Lansdowne twelve years ago; Brian, Mary and their family of six girls: Siobhan, Fiona, Niamh, Emer, Caitriona and Aisling. They are a sport orientated family; Brian, once a championship boxer and Mary, a keen tennis player. The whole family became in-volved in sport, wi th tennis a f i rm favourite. Caitriona, now 18, spent some years in St. Colmcille's School, Knocklyon before going to Our Lady's in Templeogue. Into sports in a big way, she played hockey, camogie, cricket, football , even

running, in which she gained a 4th in the Leinster Champ-ionships. However, tennis was her first love, a game which she started to play at the age of 9. Most of her early tennis was played in Ballincarrig, Brittas Bay, where the family have a holiday home. There are nine courts in Ballincarrig, no wonder she was inspired wi th enthusiasm for the game. Always successful, she played in two Irish Indoor Champ-ionships, under 14 and under 16 and also in the FIASC World Games. Needless to say, her talent did not go un-noticed. Michelle Egan, Templeogue Champion and the professional trainer, Aidan Bradshaw enthused about her performances and soon she became one of the six players in the Irish Junior Leinster Squad. She is now on the National Squad.

Caitriona trains at the Rawstorne Tennis Academy in Riverview under the guidance of Francis Rawstorne, a Davis Cup Team coach. She is a quiet, unassuming teen-ager, yet she possesses a singular determination to reach the summit of perfection in the game she loves. Her achieve-ments during the past two years are proof of her exception-al talent and include winning the gold medal in' the World Student Championships in Andorra in 1990, and a further gold medal when she defended her t i t le and won in (that familiar place) Maastricht. In 1991 also, she won every Irish Junior Competi t ion and was also awarded the Tretorn Irish Independent Trophy as the most promising young player of the year.

Early in 1992, and having taken a year o f f f rom school, she headed for South America to complete a Junior Tour and in 9 weeks, wi th 240 points to her credit, is now ranked 39 in the Junior World Ranking of the International Tennis Federation. In Apr i l , she went to Greece and took part in the Irish Federation Cup Team.

Caitriona has recently acquired sponsorship f rom John Suttle, Airwave Clothing Company who have premises in Grafton Street and many other branches around the city. The generosity of this company wil l help her to pursue a full-t ime professional career on the International Tennis Circuit. To date she has already.played in the French Open at Roland Garras in Paris, her first step in the journey to the Junior Championship at Wimbledon. Thames Ditton comes next and finally the the great day when she par-ticipates in the Junior Wimbledon Championships, Monday June 29th.

We in Knocklyon are rather proud that one of our young people should achieve so much so soon, and we would like to wish Caitriona all the luck in the wor ld for success at Wimbledon. Who knows — perhaps the future wil l hold bigger and better dreams for her that wil l all come true. We hope so.

YOUTH • CLUB

Another year has whizzed by, marked in its own small way by the Annual General Meeting of the Youth Club. Chairman Gay Byrne, in his report to the well attended (well, almost!) meeting, outlined the year's activities including some of the highlights, such as the trip to Blessington Leisure Centre and the Tallaght Sports Bowl. There is no doubt that members got value for money this year.

In the course of his address the Chairman gave richly deserved recognition to all those who assisted the Committee in its activi-ties during the year and who play such a crucial role in the success of the club.

Committee stalwarts not going forward for election this year were Fionnuaghla Curry, Mary Burke and Paddy Ryan, all of whom have put years (in Paddy's case, a founder member) of effort into the Club. Thankfully, all three have indicated that they will continue to take an active role in Club activities. The Committee and indeed, the Knocklyon Community as a whole, owe Fionn-uaghla, Mary and Paddy a vote of thanks. Your Youth Club Com-mittee for the coming year is:

Gay Byrne (Chairman) Mary Coleman (Secretary) Michael Foynes (Treasurer)

Fr. Joe Mothersill Marie Nolan (P.R.O.)

Liam Cleere Mark Keegan Michael Clifford Vincent O'Hagan Dympna Hogan Tony Sweeny Brian Millane Paul Woodcock Paddy O'Connell

A S S O C I A T I O N The Annual General Meeting of the above Association was held in the Knocklyon Youth and Community Centre on Tuesday 9th June. There was a good attendance at the meeting, where final arrange-ments are on hand for two outings and a visit to Government Buildings before taking a break for the summer.

COMMUNITY GAMES • U P 1) A T E • The praises of Knocklyon were well and truly sung last weekend by the Knocklyon Choir. They took the gold medal in the Dublin Final under the direction of Maestro Orla Gillan. Good luck in Leinster, girls!

While the choir were singing their way to success the Gaelic Footballers put a half-time deficit of two points behind them to play their way to victory in an enthralling Dublin final. They beat Swords 6-4 to 3-7. We hope John O'Gorman's team has continued success.

After a long eight years of success, our rugby team were finally defeated by Clontarf by just one try in an exciting final. Congratul-ations to twelve gallant boys on a heroic effort in achieving silver medals. John O'Carroll and John Brophy will need all the help they can get to recover the cup next year.

The tennis team performed magnificently, taking the bronze medal in a close run series of games (see photo p. 7). No doubt we'll see our coaches Noeleen Meagher and Mary Prendergast with their charges at Wimbledon in the next few years.

Congratulations to our Camogie team under Pat O'Mahoney on a great effort.

Congratulations to all our artists on their Masterpieces. Good Luck in the Dublin Final.

Well done to all the swimmers who took part in the Knocklyon Trials. Good luck in Coolmine.

The only competitor in gymnastics was Ailish Gavin. Though the competition was very stiff, she still managed to come fourth, and she has a certificate to prove it!

The boys from Knocklyon Utd. U - l l s represented us in the Soccer Competition and made a great effort to bring the Cup to Knocklyon for the first time. They ended up playing matches on three consecutive nights and although the gold escaped, they were rewarded with Bronze Medals on Sunday 14th June.

Brothers Pearse Athletic Club

Brothers Pearse, your local athletic dub, has achieved great success in the recent N.A.C.A.I. Leinster championships and twelve local athletes have qualified for the all Ireland championships which will be held at the end of June in Antrim.

At present all the local qualifiers for the Community Games are training with the dub at Cherryfield where we now have in place our own facility for storing equipment.

/ would like to take this opportunity to wish all the athletes every success in their forthcoming events and anybody interested in joining the dub can contact the committee at Cherryfield on Tuesday and Thursday nights between 7 and 8 p.m. or on Sunday morning between 7 7 and 12 p.m.

Larry Kiernan, Secretary

Ed. Note: Undoubtedly the provision of the hoped for 200m/300m grass track at Cherryfield for this dub would ensure our young athletes even greater success.

Mark Keegan at a recent Presentation by K. Y.C.C. on qualifying as a doctor

Congratulations to Mark Keegan for his recent achievement on be-coming one of our newest Doctors in the Parish. Mark wi l l have his off ic ial graduation on the 25th June 1992 in Tr in i ty College. Mark is the son of proud parents, Pat and J immy Keegan, 23 Dela-ford Park. His sister, Aishling, is also very proud of him. Mark was educated in Loreto Convent, Crumlin Road unt i l his First Com-munion. He then went on to Synge Street C.B.S. to Leaving Cert, where he finished w i th f irst class honours. From there he went on to Tr in i ty College Dubl in, to study for his medical degree.

I have known Mark since he was 10 years old when he joined the Youth Club. He played Leinster League Table Tennis for Knock-lyon. He has been involved in Summer Projects, and fur ther helped as a Youth Leader w i th the Youth Club. In all the t ime I have known him, he has been most pleasant, good humoured, and always studying. He played for St. James's Gate Football Team (U 8) in the early years. (Af ter his recent round of Golf w i th Paddy Collins and myself, he should stick to the day job! )

He has been involved in the Building Committee for the Commu-nity Centre and is at present on the Board of Directors of the K.Y.C.C. (Ltd.) . Recently he was presented w i th a Silver Salver by the Directors of the K.Y.C.C. Ltd. to mark his achievements in his medical studies, and for his dedication over the years w i th the Youth Club and Communi ty Centre.

We wish Mark every success in his future career, when he takes up his appointment in St. James's Hospital on 1st July 1992, and I am sure he has the best wishes of the people of Knock lyon on this special occasion.

Junior School News It's hard to believe that the summer holidays are upon us again. Everyone — both teachers and pupils alike — is look-ing forward to their summer holidays . . .

SCHOOL SPORTS D A Y ! The first and second classes had their school sports day on Tuesday 9th June. Af ter a rainy start, where we all thought the day would have to be cancelled, the sun shone down on the activities. The children had great fun playing different games, running various races and doing high jumps and long jumps.

The junior and senior infants had their sports day on Tuesday June 16th and had just as much fun as their older counterparts.

SCHOOL TOURS! Summer t ime is school tour time. The children f rom Ms Mulkerrins, Mrs Johnston's, Mr Sweeny's and Mr Cuddy's classes had great fun up in Kilakee A r t Centre. A f ter a long nature walk, the children returned to bases to make masks, paintings, f imo badges and items f rom wood.

The senior infant children were mesmerized by the magic of Quentin Reynolds.

The junior infants are to attend the Lambert Puppet Theatre, whilst First Class are hoping to be enthralled by the Natural History Museum. Mrs Ruddy's and Mrs Cor-duff 's classes are to visit Clonakil ty Farm.

BASKETBALL LEAGUE! The children f rom first class had a great league in Basket-ball. The final was held on Monday June 15th. It was be-tween Kilkenny and Roscommon. Af ter a very close match, the eventual winners were Roscommon wi th the final score of 5 to 2.

Finally, the staff and pupils of the Junior School would like to wish everyone a very restful summer.

See you in September — Bye!! !

A HIGHLAND FLING Barry Condron, 6th Class, (Glenvara Park) was selected on the Dublin Primary Schools Hurling Team which travelled to Scotland on Whit Weekend. Read on . . . On Friday May 29th, a group of 16 school boys f rom the Dublin area, under the care of Cumann na mBunscol travelled to Scotland to complete the second leg of a Primary Schools Hurl ing/Shinty line-up. On Monday 25th, at a reception in the Mansion House, the Lord Mayor of Dublin wished us the best of luck. We were presented wi th our gear which was got through sponsorship.

We were accompanied on the tr ip by 4 teachers. On arr-ival in Glasgow, we were met by our hosts and travelled to Celtic's home ground, Park Head, and there we saw Liam Brady.

On Saturday morning, we visited" Inverary Jail, Castle and Wildlife Park. In the afternoon, we travelled to Argyll where we played a hurling/shinty game. The Dublin boys won 5 goals to 2. As we travelled through Scotland we noted that the Highlands were rugged and barren. The souvenir shops had Bagpipes and tartan kilts. A tartan re-presents a particular clan.

On Sunday, we went to Perth for another hurling/-shinty game. This time, the opposition were more alert and we drew 4 all. We travelled home on Monday evening wi th "The Friendship Cup". It was certainly an action packed weekend and everyone agreed it was a great success.

A new drama group have just formed in the area by the name of Kaos. Their first venture was a one act play 'The Unveiling' by Valclav Havel, coupled with a series of monologues.

Anne Monaghan, Beverley Heights, directed the play with flair and expertise. Pat Egan, Susan Galligan and Mark Shinnick gave very sincere and impressive performances.

The monologues, under the experienced direc-torship of Frank Fahey, Dargle Wood, were highly entertaining. Under the title 'Life's Like That!' we were treated to some very humourous and some-times very sad aspects of life. Eleanor Chambers', Beverley Heights, performance from 'Joyriders' was particularly poignant.

Clearly all of the actors/actresses involved have a lot of experience but assure me that they will wel-come new members wholeheartedly.

The show was staged at The Spawell, a most in-viting and welcoming venue. It was a most exhil-arating, stimulating and delightful production.

SENIOR SCHOOL NEWS - C r o k e P a r k C o n t e n d e r s -

The boys with their coach, Mr P. O'Neill

SENIOR HURLING Friday May 22 nd was the date, Croke Park the setting and the Her-

ald Cup the occasion. The Senior Hurling team from St. Colmcille's

school took to the field on the school's first ever appearance in the

premier hurling competition for Primary Schools. Cheered on by

hundreds of supporters, the team gave their much vaunted rivals

from Marino a great run for their money. Inspired by the heroics

of a marvellous full-back line of Eoin Cummins, Shone Prender-

gast and Odhran Connors, the team gave an outstanding exhibition

of determined and committed hurling and at half time were unlucky

to be three points behind. As the second half wore on the stronger

Marino side (powered by TO of last year's winning side) got on top

and eventually Knocklyon had to bow the knee. Highlights of the

second half for Knocklyon were the classy goal from Barry Condron;

the sharp free taking of David Curtin and the strong running of

Colin Moran. A special word for captain Ciaran Doyle who led

the team by example all season.

A disappointed but proud St. Colmcille's team mounted the

steps to the Hogan Stand to receive their runners-up medals and

were accorded a wonderful reception by all the fans on Hill 16.

On arrival back at the school the entire panel along with parents

were treated to a lovely reception. Many thanks to Mrs Finola Doyle

and all the other mothers for their hard work in organizing the re-

ception. The panel of 32 boys had trained very hard since last

January and deserved the appreciative reception they received at

an assembly of the entire school on the following day. So roll on

next year and maybe we'll prove the old seanfhocal: "Beidh la

eile ag an bPaorach".

Gallant girls pictured with their coaches, Ms Cooney and Mr O'Mahoney

CAMOGIE Throughout the season the panel of 20 girls played w i th determina-t ion and commi tment to represent Knock lyon in the f inal of Corn Irish Permanent.

The day dawned, Tuesday May 19th and the sun smiled on us as we made our way to . . . CROKE PARK (at last!!). Cheered on by hundreds of wonderful supporters, the team lined up against Scoil Mhaelruain. The whistle blew, the match began. The support-ers were treated to a display of ski l ful determined hurling f rom both sides. A superb pass by Caroline Cullen enabled our ever-ready ful l forward Carol Smyth to put the ball into the back of the net. Thus drawing both sides level. A great point scored by Orla Regan put Knocklyon ahead but just before the half t ime whistle Sc. Mhaelruain had drawn level. Unfortunately the other team proved too strong for Knocklyon. But we did not bow under w i thout a f ight. The dogged defence by the backline of Ciara Quinn, Roisin Keaney, Aine McSweeney and the extremely skil-ful Gil l ian Barrett kept Maelruain's score to a min imum. Al though under pressure, our goa'ie, An i ta Dunney made some wonderful saves. Sadly when the final whistle blew, we were two goals down, bot the girls were not downhearted: They made their way to the Hogan Stand to receive their Silver. Medals. They had been a part of history because St. Colmcille's, Knocklyon was one of the first Primary School teams to play a league final in Croke Park.

The vanquished team arrived home to a beautiful and well earned reception in the school. Many thanks to Geralding Mc-Sweeney, Bridie Quinn and all those other parents who organized it .

Next year is another year. Croke Park wi l l beckon again and Knocklyon wi l l play hard to get there.

Remember, girls, it's not the winning that counts, but the taking part.

P A R I S H M I S S I O N 1 9 9 2 The Parish Mission has come and gone. The sons of St. Alphonsus Ligouri, Jim and Tom with their back-up team of Dick, Paddy, Jarlath etc., have ridden into the sunset.

What memories it conjured for some of us older ones - the Reds. (Redemptorists) of yesteryear, the scourge of sinners north and south of the country, the era of Confraternities (Holy Family) the weekly meetings, the hymn singing in which we joined with gusto, "God of Mercy and Compas-sion" etc., the sermon on company keeping, the lonely country roads, the world, the flesh and the devil! Then the proverbial pin could be heard drop as we studiously kept our heads well down and our eyes averted lest our then innocent enough guilty feelings would be betrayed in an incriminating blush.

So how did it go? Was it successful? And how does one judge success? I have no doubt we who were involved — at house meetings, visiting the homes, listening to Jim and Tom, are all the richer for these experiences.

"Where two or three are gathered in my name . . . " Jim and Tom intrigued me. They knew what

they were about and nothing happened by chance. They worked hard and efficiently, and yet seemed to have infinite time and patience for all concerned. The old Red. principles, the build up etc. to the important sermons were there — tradition dies hard — but also an obvious adaptation to present day circumstances, "keep your principles intact but adapt yourselves to circumstances".

Jim laid bare the evils of injustice — he thought justice a cold word (and rightly so), and preferred the word fairness as a more everyday and meaning-ful one. Not putting a tooth in it he accused for instance that our injustice (sorry unfairness!) ultimately put others out of work. We all know this of course but need to be reminded afresh. The Parish Mission did just this. Jim's (Martin Luther King's) quote hit the nail bang on the head "where there is injustice anywhere, justice is threatened everywhere".

Tom — when he cut loose, there was no room for pussyfooting — attacked the lack of communic-ation in the home, which in fact means lack of love. He painted the picture of the grumpy husband

coming home from work, digging in to the papers, only slightly relieved by the occasional forced grunt of for instance yeh! no! out! Tom's punch-line again was excellent when he pleaded with us not to turn our homes into veritable B. & Bs.

The whole presentation was very much alive, well flavoured with the bit of crack and humour which is as it should be. We should take God seriously, but not ourselves.

In between the laughter were two serious and single-minded people, working hard and unselfish-ly and doing an excellent job of work. They left us thirsting for more of the same. Yes indeed, on mature reflection, a definite success — Praise the Lord.

• COUNTY COUNCIL COMMENTS • (Courtesy Councillors M. Muldoon and J. Hannon)

1. MIRROR AT KNOCKLYON ROAD/BALLYCULLEN ROAD JUNCTION

The Council's Traffic Section is in general opposed to the use of mirrors as they can create problems while attempting to solve others e.g.- Distance is distorted due to mirror curvature.

— At night a driver approaching on a road seeing lights in a mirror may be confused.

— If a mirror is incorrectly adjusted or altered by accident or vandals drivers may be misled and/or confused.

— Mirrors usually become targets for vandalism.

2. REFUSE COLLECTION - MONDAY SERVICE etc. Restructuring of the Refuse Collection Service is being considered in detail at present and it is hoped that f irm proposals will emerge before the end of the year.

3. BROTHERS PEARSE ATHLETIC CLUB Consideration is currently being given to the provision of a 200 or 300 metre grass athletic track for this club at Cherryfield.

4. FIRHOUSE ROAD - CYCLISTS CROSSING In response to a question from Cllr. Hannon for an urgent examina-tion of the situation where young cyclists must cross from the Ballycullen Road exit to reach the Cycle Lane on Firhouse Road in conditions of extreme danger, the reply given was that it seemed unlikely any worthwhile measures could take place prior to the construction of the Southern Cross Route. Cllr. Hannon is totally dissatisfied with this reply and intends to pursue the issue further.

5. DISPOSAL OF UNWANTED FRIDGES Where time and finance permits, a junk collection service may be provided in some areas over the summer months. There are facilities available whereby fridges brought to Council landfill sites will have their CFC gases extracted prior to being sent to Hammond Lane for recycling.

6. DEFECTS LIABILITY OF HOUSE BUILDERS

Liability for defects in the construction of private houses is a matter of consumer protection not for the Planning Authority. Defects in houses or ancillary structures, or defects in private drains/manholes serving one or more houses are matters to be settled between the house purchasers and builders having regard to the contract entered into by the two parties. The purchaser's solicitor would be in the best position to advise in relation to specific, complaints concerning liability for house defects etc.

Purchasers buying from a builder who is a member of the National House Building Guarantee Scheme have protection from major structural defects for a six year period after completion of the house in accordance with the terms of the scheme.

The Council's Building Bye-Laws ceased to have effect from 1st June 1992. Where house building begins after 1st June 1992, unless an existing Bye-Law approval is available, the house must conform to the building regulations. It is a matter for each house purchaser to optain independent assurances from a competent source that the house has been constructed in accordance with the building regulations.

Our Under 12 Bs — League winners with Team Managers

In making predictions the one thing that you can safely say is that predictions wil l not be correct. For those of you who read our column wi th avid interest you may well recall that early in the season Knocklyon United boldly predicted that they would once again carry off major hon-ours in several of the Competitions. Right throughout the season all our teams have consistently performed wi th tremendous spirit.

"Thanks"

Firstly let it be said that every boy who played for the club on any team, winners or losers, deserves to be complimented on their dedication throughout the season. To the parents for all the support both physical and financial, and finally a very well earned thanks to the Executive Committee and Managers who deserve the height of praise for their untold and never-ending commitment to the development of the boys, Knocklyon United Football Club and the Knocklyon community itself. The 35 managers and committee are dedicated to the ongoing development of the Club for the benefit of the area and let's hope that there are more of their kind will ing to join us in future years.

In 1989 we said that we were aiming to become the best organised, most successful club in our League, starting then from a base of 3 teams, we now have 18, and are held in high esteem in the South Dublin League.

"The Net Results" The Roll of Honour for 91/92 Season is as follows:

9A's Cup and League Runners-Up 10A's Cup and League Runners-Up 11 A's Cup Winners League Runners-Up 12A's Shield Winners League Runners-Up

12B's League Winners 13A's Cup Winners Shield Runners-Up 15's Shield Runners-Up 16's Shield Winners

Our Under 11's also finished fourth in the Dublin Com-munity Games.

The Players and Managers have put their boots up for a rest and likewise my pen is put aside ' t i l September when the Knocklyon United Roadshow swings into action once again.

Yours in Sport,

Finbarr Dolan

If you would like to get involved in Knocklyon United contact Noel Gaughran at 935740 for all the details.

BALLYBODEN G.A.A. AND CAMOGIE CLUB

As I mentioned in last month's issue our Under 14 hurlers become involved in the countrywide Feile na nGael compe-t i t ion at this time of year.

The Dublin section of Feile na nGael took place last month and we won it again this year in a thril l ing tussle wi th St. Vincent's. As a result we wil l represent Dublin in the inter-county section in Galway over the last weekend of this month.

Our team leaves on Thursday, 25th of June and plays its first match in Castlebar on the following day. Two further matches fol low on the Saturday and hopefully we wil l be on the field in Athenry on the Sunday to win the final. We wish them all the best.

Our presently Under 13A football team took part in a special Under 12 Competition and drew in the final. The replay did not take place until recently and we emerged victorious by 4 points over St. John's, Ballinteer. Congra-tulations to all involved but especially to some outstanding players such as Colin Moran, Padraig Griff in, Ciaran Doyle, John Coffey, Peter Clifford, Stephen Quinn and Eddie McAuley — all from Knocklyon and of course congratula-tions also to their mentors Bob Coffey and Bobby 0'Sullivan.

Congratulations are also due to the Under 10 footballers who won the Dublin Community Games for Knocklyon and to their mentors John O'Gorman and Damien Fee.

Much of the field activity wil l be slowing down during July and August but September wil l surely follow and many new boys and girls wil l want to become involved. Just call at the Club on any Saturday morning in September after 10.30 a.m. and meet Shay or Tony Lennon, or ring Paddy Walsh, the Juvenile Chairman at 942795.

YOUNG DUBS!

ROISIN KEANEY AND HA YLEY DEV/NE who played on the Dublin Primary Schools Camogie

team recently.

The Monthly Meeting of the Knocklyon Community Coun-

cil was held on the 4th June 1992. A resume of the business

transacted by the various sub-committees is set out here-

under:

PLANNING: C o n v e n o r - T o m Lambert.

It was reported that no money for the carrying out of the

Southern Cross Route Motorway has been included in this

year's Dublin Co. Council Road Budget. It is understood

that the Report on the Public Inquiry has not yet been

considered by the Minister due to difficulties which have

arisen in relation to future connection wi th the proposed

South Eastern Motorway.

The Council has wri t ten to both the Co. Council and the

Corporation in connection wi th the provision of Class 1

open space for Knocklyon.

COMMUNICATIONS AND FINANCE: Convenor - Michael

Clif ford.

The Convenor told the meeting that the sub-committee

was now drafting the format of the Council's Annual News-

letter. He asked that Residents' Associations who wished

to have material included should contact the sub-committee

as soon as possible to discuss suitable articles.

EDUCATION: Convenor - Vincent Kenny.

The Convenor's report has been submitted to the Minister

and the Committee is awaiting a reply. The Committee is

confident that the Department's survey at present in pro-

gress wil l confirm the urgent necessity for the new com-

muni ty school.

ENVIRONMENT: Convenor - John Gearty.

Recent pol lut ion results show an increase in air pollution.

The figures are however still well w i th in acceptable limits.

The Annual Competit ion for the Mary Muldoon Trophy

wil l be held during the weeks 19th July - 1st August

which have been designated the Tidy Up Weeks for 1992.

Estates should commence now on their t idy up programmes

paying particular attention to l i t ter, road margins, especially

areas around trees, poles etc., t r imming of hedges and

shrubs, especially those overhanging paths, f ront lawns and

flower beds, f ront drives and pathways. The Trophy was

won last year by Cremorne. Who wi l l win this year?

POLICING: Convenor - Damien Fee.

The committee reported that it has noted a considerable

increase in crime and vandalism during recent months. The

nature of the crime and vandalism gave particular cause for

concern and alarm. The Convenor is meeting "with the

Garda Community Officer for discussions on the matter to

formulate a course of action to deal wi th it.

It was reported that a neighbourhood watch scheme had

been set up in Idrone and it was hoped that more areas

would fo l low suit.

SPORTS: C o n v e n o r - J i m Mulkerrin.

Mr. Jim Mulkerrin has been elected Convenor of the Sports

Sub-Committee. The Council feels that this sub-committee

has work of great importance to Knocklyon to carry out

and hopes that it wi l l have the support of all sporting,

athletic and recreational bodies in the area. Organisations or

individuals interested should contact the Convenor as soon

as at all possible.

NEXT MEETING: The next meeting wi l l be held on the

2nd July 1992.

Please listen out for these dates and take the opportunity to air your views on all matters - both temporal and spiritual - just drop a note into the presbytery before the deadline and we will do our best to publish your point of view.

The Committee would like to take this opportunity to thank the young people in the Senior School who distribute the news-letter - also their teachers who have been so co-operative and helpful during the past year. May we wish these young people every success for the future - especially those who will be leav-ing the Senior School in June to commence Second Level education in September. Many thanks also to our printers. Lantz Ltd. - without whose advice and expertise it would be impos-sible to get the newsletter to you. the parishioners, every month.

Have a happy and sunny summer. See you again in September.
