Archbishop Casey Announces

Big Thompson Disaster Fund

The Big Thompson Canyon Relief Fund to aid victims of the flood that ravaged that area has been established by Archbishop James V. Casey.

The archbishop appointed Msgr. William H. Jones, chancellor and vicar general, as interim disaster coordinator for the Big Thompson Canyon Area.

In addition, a pastoral team will be formed to assist in caring for the spiritual needs of the parishes in the disaster area.

Persons wishing to aid the disaster relief fund should send con­tributions to: Big Thompson Canyon Relief Fund, P.O. Box 1620, Denver, Colo. 80201.

Archbishop Casey on Sunday had sent Father C.B. Woodrich, editor of the Denver Catholic Register, and Father Edward Hoff­mann, secretary to the archbishop and vice chancellor, to the dis­aster area to investigate the extent of the tragedy that hit the Big Thompson Canyon area.

The full extent of the tragedy has yet to be spelled out, according to priests on the scene of the Big Thompson flood disaster.

Early reports said that between 50 and 60 persons had been kil­led, but authorities estimated that the final death toll could be four times that.

Father Regis McGuire, pastor at St. John the Evangelist parish in Loveland, said that he could not yet tell how many of his parishioners had been killed as a “wall of water” 10 feet high roared through Big Thompson Canyon, tearing up trees, cabins, cars, campers, and homes and sending them hurtling through the narrow canyon.

Father McGuire said that most people he had talked to “were in a state of shock.”

“It’s real tragic,” he said. “There’s been so much damage to homes and property. It’ll be days before anyone knows how many persons were killed in the disaster.”

Mr. and Mrs. Les Canham, two of his parishioners, had been wiped out completely by a 1965 flood. Their home in the Canyon was swept away again in this flood.

Mrs. Canham saw her home being torn apart by the raging waters as she watched the flood reports on television in a friend’s home.

Parishioners Mr. and Mrs. Adam Miller, the parents of six children, lost everything in the Big Thompson flood. Their home was totally destroy^.

Police gave Father McGuire a flood warning Saturday evening, asked him to be on the alert and told him the parish facilities might be needed to help flood victims. By Monday, however, they were still not needed.

Chancery BulletinECUMENICAL SERVICES

The Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary will be observed with ecumenical services to be held on Sunday, August 15, at St. Mary’s Episcopal Church and Most Precious Blood Catholic Church.

The Ecumenical Service will begin with Solemn Evensong at St. Mary’s at 7:00 p.m., and continue with

a procession to Most Precious Blood Catholic Church where Solemn Benediction will be sung.

In the spirit of the joint Anglican/Roman Catholic Statement on the Eucharist and Ministry, Reverend James M. Mote of St. Mary’s and Rev. Maurice P. Kane, C.M., of Most Precious Blood Church, invite all to participate.

Injustice ‘Great Scandal of Century’PHILADELPHIA (NC) — “The great scandal of the

century is to know that over two-thirds of humanity live in sub-human conditions, without food, without clothing, without houses, without health, without work, without perspective, without hope,” Archbishop Helder Camara sdid hGr6.

The archbishop of Olinda and Recife, Brazil, made his remarks at the International Hunger Symposium of the 41st International Eucharistic Congress at Philadelphia’s Civic Center.

“'The great scandal of the century,” he said, “is to have a small group of countries which get always richer, while the greatest part of humanity gets always poorer.”

Archbishop Camara also said that in poor countries there are rich people “holding their wealth at the expense of crushing the greatest part of their countrymen.”

He added that in some rich countries “wealth is sustained at the expense of the misery of the poor countries.”

“The great scandal of the century,” the archbishop continued “is to have pockets of poverty within the rich countries.”

Archbishop Camara,, author of several books on peacemaking and causes of violence, cited another “scan­dal of our century” — “that we continue to spend on the manufacture of wars, which we know can liquidate life on earth, the money which should be spent on the creation of a more just and more humane world.”

As a solution, Archbishop Camara said that “we must keep our eyes open to the Eucharist of the poor — in fact, the poor and the oppressed are Christ Himself. The great charity of our time consists in helping to promote justice.”

“It is wonderful,” the archbishop continued, “to as­sist those who are hungry and lead a sublife, but it is also im perative to have eyes to discover the Christ overwhelmed by our selfishness.”

The co-called population explosion, according to Archbishop Camara is only a “pseudo-reason for the mis­ery of the poor countries. ’’

“What really exists,” he maintained, “is an explosion of selfishness! ”

Issuing a challenge to the United States, he declared: “Americans celebrate your bicentennial by showing to your middle class the samples of Third World enclaves within your own frontiers. The discovery of poverty within the United States will open the eyes of the North American people to the enormous mass of oppressed, vic­tims of the injustices of international trade policies . . . ”

He then asked: “What can we do with regard to the unjust structures which crush missions of sons of God?”

“We Christians need to get closer,” he answered, “to all those who believe that we all have the same Father and, therefore, are brothers!”

Without resorting to violence, the archbishop added, we should “unite ourselves to demand justice as a precondition for peace.”

Archbishop Camara then prayed for three fundamen­tal graces: “the grace for our eyes to see the Eucharist of the poor ; the grace to realize that the great charity of the century is to work toward justice, to overcome the scan­dal of over two-thirds of humanity living in misery and hunger, and the grace of our union with all people of goodwill to strive, in a peaceful but courageous way, for the liberation of the oppressed of the whole world or, bet­ter still, for the Liberation of Christ, crushed in the hearts of the chanceless and voiceless.”

Orders Facing Money CrisisNEW YORK (NC) —

Inflation, decreases in voca­tions, poor management practices and “other worldly menaces,” have plunged Catholic religious orders into deep financial trouble, according to author James Gollin.

The 645 religious orders in the United States have as­sets in the neighborhood of $10 billion, Gollin says, but all but a small percentage of this is in “bricks and mor­

tar.” The remaining assets — perhaps $400 million to $600 million — are in cash and securities, which do not generate enough income to cover the orders’ total ex­penses, he maintains.

As a result, Gollin says, some orders are close to bankruptcy and even the largest, the Jesuits, have put up for sale $9.9 million worth of realty, or 25 percent of their entire physical plant, to offset losses.

The Loveland High School became a disaster center for the flood victims, where they could receive food, clothing and other aid.

In the early hours of the flood. Father McGuire and

> S is te r R osem ary Huzl remained close to the rec­tory, answering phone calls about possible victims and reporting on the rescue ef­forts.

Father McGuire devoted much of his time to talking with the flood refugees and their families, comforting them and trying to solve any problems created by the tragedy.

Father McGuire and other Loveland clergymen were then called upon to serve in the morgue set up for the flood.

T hey w orked o u t a s c h e d u le so th a t a

■ clergyman was present at jl the morgue all the time to

help families and friends in the identification of bodies.

, A clergyman was present■ at each identification.

Three separate rooms were used to assist in the identification of bodies, one room for children, one for adult men and another for adult women.

Father McGuire said that identification of bodies was very difficult. Often written descriptions did not seem to fit any of the bodies.

Hundreds of persons were believed stranded in the Big Thompson Canyon, where quite a few of F a th er McGuire’s parishioners live. How many of them are still alive was still unknown a few days after the flash flood hit.

Helicopters had dropped leaflets warning any sur­vivors to go to higher ground, as rain continued to pour down, ham pering rescue efforts by helicopters and horses.

The highway between Estes Park and Loveland through the canyon was completely torn up by the torrent. Some estimated it would be at least a year before the highway could be replaced — probably at a cost of $4 million

President Gerald Ford declared the region a dis­aster area, permitting the use of federal funds to aid victims.

Father Woodrich reported that many Loveland people took the flood victims into their homes.

He praised the work of the people of the Loveland area. “It was a magnificent all-out effort to help. I salute the total effort of the people of Loveland,” he said.

He cited the great “spirit of cooperation among the p e o p le , am ong the clergymen and the hospital

attendants — needs were met.”

The tre m e n d o u scooperative effort, he said, “boggles the mind.”

Hundreds found food and clothing at the high school flood center, he reported.

He and Father Hoffmann had gone to Loveland to in­vestigate the extent of the d isa s te r following the archdiocesan observance of the Eucharistic Congress in the cathedral Sunday.

Archbishop Casey, follow­ing reports of the flood, dedicated the Mass at the observance to the victims of the flood. Food and clothing for flood refugees.

‘Almost Like a Nightmare^“It was eerie and foggy,

almost like a nightmare,” Father Harold Arbanas said as he described his long trip out of Estes Park Monday morning, Aug. 2.

Everyone on that road was thinking about the horrible disaster that had struck the Big Thom pson Canyon between Estes Park and Loveland July 31, Father Ar­banas said.

His words eerie and night­mare best express the reac­tion of the people of that Mountain area and the entire state of Colorado and the na­tion viewing the horrible

a f te rm a th of the Big Thompson disaster on TV,

Father Arbanas, who is the director of schools for the Central Area, assists at Our Lady of the Mountains Parish in Estes Park on the w eekends in July and August.

“The rain became torren­tial in Estes Park during the eight o’clock evening Mass on Saturday night, Aug. 31,” Father Arbanas said. “ It was pouring so hard that the people had to stay in church an hour after Mass before they could go to their cars in the church parking lot.”

It was not long after Mass ended that the news of the d i s a s te r in the Big Thompson stunned the peo­ple of Estes Park, Father Arbanas said.

The damage of the flood began about three miles below the Church in Estes Park and from Drake the waters of the canyon picked up the great force that created one of the worst dis­asters in the 100-year history of the state.

Father Arbanas said that the road was washed out in many places between Estes Park and Drake and that

trees and other debris damaged many of the homes along the bank of the ram­paging canyon. Hundreds were stranded as they sought high ground to escape the flood.

R elief w orkers were mobilized in Estes Park im­mediately on learning of the disaster. Father Arbanas sa id h u n d red s w ere evacuated from the canyon to E s te s P a rk . The parishioners of Our Lady of the Mountains, along with the other residents of Estes Park opened their homes to

[ Involvem ent By the Total People of God |On July 27 the PASTORAL

PROCESS was introduced in n ine p a r is h e s in th e archdiocese. PASTORAL PROCESS is the name that has been given to a planned effort in the Archdiocese of Denver to help individual parishes and groups of parishes study and decide on the ministries best suited to meet the present day needs of their people.

The p u rp o se of PASTORAL PROCESS is to concentrate on this issue in a carefully planned way over a given period of time. It is hoped that different models will be developed for ac­complishing this planning and for allowing the total people of God to become in­volved in the decision mak­ing process.

The name, PASTORAL PROCESS, was chosen because it conveys the idea of people praying, studying, p lan n in g and w o rk in g together. It says that a growth process takes place when people and groups in­teract.

Similar projects are being conducted in many dioceses of the United States. Some dioceses have fu ll-tim e staffs directing these ef­forts.

In e s ta b l i s h in gPASTORAL PROCESS as a p i lo t p r o je c t in th e Archdiocese of Denver, Archbishop James V. Casey has approved the following guidelines:1. PASTORAL PROCESS will involve four areas of C h u rc h l i f e ; th e Archdiocese, i.e., the Archbishop and his staff and the Archdiocesan Service Agencies; the a re a of the p a r is h pastoral and educational staffs; the area of lay leadership and parish councils; and the area of the People of God — the parishioners themselves.2. To s e rv e th e

PASTORAL PROCESS project, the Archbishop has appointed two co­d ire c to rs ; the Rev. Harold P. Arbanas, who was Chairman of the Pastoral Process Study Committee which has been working for nearly a year on the specifics of this project; and Mrs. Cyndi S. Thero, who has done formal study in this field.

a) The co-directors will

the Archdiocese will be a p p o in te d by th e Archbishop. Purposes of this board will be to enab le a num ber of priests, religious, and la ity to become a c ­q u a in te d w ith th e PASTORAL PROCESS and to add the richeness of their experience and pastoral perspective to the project.3. The recently released document, “To Consider

b) The staffs of the various Service agencies

The other group is St. Vincent de Paul, Most Precious Blood and St. Francis de Sales, and Spirit of Christ. These two groups of parishes will comprise pilot areas

b) Upon request of the co-directors, they will meet with members of the original Pastoral Process Study Commit­tee, Reverend Joseph O’­Malley, Reverend Donald D unn, and S is te r Rosemary Wilcox.

An advisory board of pastors and other leaders representing all areas of

Prayerfully the Work of the Coming Day”, dated May 5, 1976, is the result of nearly four months of PASTORAL PROCESS e n te red into by the Archbishop, his staff and the many others who provided suggestions as to its form and content. The document will form a basis of discussions on the parish level and plan­ning in all levels of pastoral work in the Archdiocese.4. The Service Agencies that work in the Denver area will assist in the process and will par­

will also be asked to con­sider these same issues as they relate to their work with the parishes.

c) The staffs of the various Service Agencies will be asked to be availab le to help as resource persons as the p a r is h e s e n te r in to various discussions and planning.

a) The PASTORAL PROCESS was launched in these parishes at a meeting of the pastors of these parishes with the Archbishop on July 27, 1976.

b) The full parish staffs of both groups of parishes w ill begin the PASTORAL PROCESS with a Day of Unity.

c) During September, October and part of November, the full parish staffs of both groups of parishes will meet week­ly-

d) The p a r is h leadership and parish council meetings will be scheduled in November, December, January, and February.

e) PASTORAL PROCESS will involve the to ta l p a r is h m em bersh ip du ring February and March, 1977.

f) During April, 1977 there will be an evalua­tion of the nine months of PASTORAL PROCESS in these eight parishes.

g) During April and May of 1977 determina­tion will be made for PASTORAL PROCESS in other parishes of the Archdiocese.

h) The Archbishop and his staff will be involved in appropriate ways at every new step in the process.7. Private and shared prayer will be the founda­tion and inspiration of the e n t i r e P,A S T O R A L PROCESS. During the process, four basic steps will be followed:

a) Theologizing, where­by the very best of Catholic tradition and its practical implications for today’s ministry will be explored.

b) Goal Setting, where­by a determination will be made of the various and many works of ministry to which we are called

c) Prioritizing, where­by a decision will be made on what works of ministry are most impor­tant for us to do in meeting today’s needs

d) Action Planning, whereby strategies will be set and methods and responsibilities detailed.

Funeral Mass For Mercenary

KENSINGTON, Md. — About 250 relatives and f r ie n d s of e x e c u te d mercenary soldier Daniel Gearhart were urged to recommit themselves to peace at his funeral Mass in Holy Redeemer church here.

Gearhart’s execution July 10 by the Communist-backed government of Angola must be “a call to peace, that we may all strive daily to live in peace with one another and to spread the gospel of peace in the world around us,” said Msgr. Leo J. Coady, pastor, who had guaranteed pay­ment of $5,000 with parish funds to fly Gearhart’s body home.School Aid Law Upheld In Ohio

COLUMBUS, Ohio (NC) — A three-judge federal dis­trict court here unanimously upheld an Ohio law providing auxiliary services to non­public school students in the state.

The Ohio law provides stu­dents in nonpublic schools with textbooks approved for use in public schools, secular and nonideological instruc­tio n a l eq u ip m en t and materials like those used in public schools, and funds to hire clerical personnel to ad­minister the aid. Other ser­vices — such as speech and hearing diagnostic services, medical and psychological services, counseling and programs for handicapped children — are provided on public school grounds or in mobile units parked off the nonpublic school grounds.Ordination Of Women

Peace Blueprint To Be Offered

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (NC) - The U.S. bishops will be asked to incorporate a blueprint for peace into their “ Liberty and Justice for All” program at their nation­al bicentennial meeting in Detroit in October.

Bishop Carroll T. Dozier of M em phis sa id the Catholic peace group Pax Christi will ask the bishops to reject the possession and use of nuclear arms as con­trary to Christian morality, develop a pastoral education plan on conscientious objec­tion, extend their position on amnesty to include complete and unconditional amnesty without punishment, and reopen th e ir office for United Nations affairs.

Homes ‘Warehouses For Things’

DAYTON, O. — The love of power and material things is the “root problem” for families. Father Gabriel Calvo, founder of the Mar­riage Encounter Movement, told a national conference of the group here.

Materialism is a “hostile force” propelled by the “adoration of things, money and power,” he said. Homes, he added, have become “ warehouses for things, where material goods are often more important than persons.”

3rd World War Predicted

MILWAUKEE (NC) - The spiritual leader of a mil­lion MelKite-rite Catholics said here that he sees “little hope” of avoiding a third world war if conflicts con­tinue in Lebanon and other Mideast troublespots.

M elkite-rite Patriarch Maximos V also criticized press reports characterizing the Lebanese civil war as a religious conflict between Christians and Moslems. He said it is a war between lef­tists and rightists, with Christians and Moslems on both sides.

Appeals for Aid For Lebanese

WASHINGTON (NC) - Archbishop Joseph L. Ber- nardin of Cincinnati, presi­d en t of th e N a tio n a l Conference of Catholic Bishops, has asked all U.S. bishops to provide additional aid to the suffering people of strife-torn Lebanon.

“ As the t r a g ic and seemingly endless struggle in Lebanon wears on, its un- fo rtuan te v ic tim s are becoming increasing ly dependent upon help from o u ts id e th e n a t io n , ’’ Archbishop Bernardin said. “An estimated 300,000 of the 1,500,000 Christians have been driven from their homes. Deprivation has fol­lowed destruction. An in­c re a s in g n u m b er of refugees, both Christian and Moslem, lack even the necessities of life.”

Congress at a GlanceThe 41st International Eucharistic

Congress, being held in Philadelphia Aug. 1-8, began with a Mass in Sts. Peter and Paul Cathedral.

Cardinal James Knox, head of the Vatican Congregation for the Sacraments and Divine Worship, Pope Paul’s legate to the congress, celebrated the Mass and preached.

Later on opening day there was a civic reception at city hall and a parade on the theme “Hungers of the World,” with floats and groups in ethnic costumes.

Following the parade there was a eucharistic procession.

The theme of the Congress is “The Hungers of the Human Family.”

The liturgical events during the eight days of the congress include eucharistic celebrations emphasizing the eight hungers of man — the hunger for God, for bread, for freedom and justice, for the Spirit, for truth, for understanding, for peace, and for Jesus, the Bread of Life.

The congress also features a number of conferences and seminars, on topics in­cluding: world hunger; family life, freedom and justice, clergy and Religious, ecum en ism and the E u c h a r is t , ecumenicism in general, youth, women and the Eucharist and their response to the hungers of man.

There are daily Masses at various loca­

tions and a special Mass in honor of Bles­sed John Neumann, expected to be canonized soon, and a special charistmatic renewal Mass. There will also be a special ecumenical service.

Festivals for various ethnic groups and Eastern-rite Catholics will also be a part of the Congress.

The performing arts program of the Congress includes the premieres of two plays — “Francis,” on the life of St. Francis, and “The Miracle of the Bread.” Other plays, including “ A Man for All Seasons,” are being staged at historic churches in the city.

Other performing arts events include a concert by the Pittsburgh Symphony, a religious jazz concert featuring Ella Fitzgerald and Dave Brubeck and a per­formance by the Dance Theatre of Harlem.

There are also religious and liturgical art exhibits.

The solemn closing of the Eucharistic Congress will begin at 4 p.m. Aug. 8 with a procession of delegations of nations and states to JFK Stadium, concluding at a pontifical Mass in the stadium, with Car­dinal Knox as homilist and principal celebrant.

The Denver Catholic Register will carry pictures and reports on events at the Eucharistic Congress in its Aug. 11 issue.

From Medieval TimesEucharistic Congresses —

public demonstrations of faith in the Eucharist as the Body and Blood of Christ — are a carryover from the g rea t citywide medieval celebrations of Corpus C h r is t i th a t inc luded magnificent processions of the Blessed Sacrament.

The original Eucharistic Congress was conceived by a F ren ch w o m an , M arie Tamisier, with the support of an industrialist, Philibert Vrau, in 1883.

That Congress was in­

tended to be a defiance of the a n ti- re lig io u s a t ­m osphere of late 19th- century French politics.

Subsequent Congresses at­tracted immense crowds.

By 1893 the Vatican had ta k e n n o tic e of the significance of those events. Pope Leo XIII sent a papal legate to that year’s gather­ing in Jerusalem.Congresses at Lourdes in

1914 and in Rome in 1922 with Pope Pius XI as host demonstrated the impor­tance of the Catholic Church

on the world scene.With the Second Vatican

Council and Pope Paul’s un­precedented visit to the Eucharistic Congress in Bombay, India, in 1964 — where he prayed with non- Christians and embraced leaders of the Oriental religions — as well as his visits to the Congresses in Columbia, South America, in 1967 and M elb o u rn e , Australia, in 1971, gave new significance to the type of Christian witness expressed at such events.

f Sheila Cassidy

From Physician to Sister

Doctor Sheila Cassidy

By Jesus RangelWASHINGTON (NC) — Four years of living in Chile

has brought a sense of spiritual renewal in Sheila Cassidy, the British doctor whose claim of imprisonment and tor­ture by Chilean military police caused international repercussions earlier this year.

When she left for Chile in 1971, Dr. Cassidy was look­ing for work that she said was governed by her needs, not by other people’s needs. She said she was “ambitious,” with no desire to help the underprivileged or the poor. Now, Sheila Cassidy has decided to become a nun.

In an interview with NC News, the 37-year old doctor reflected on how what she saw and experienced in Chile has changed her attitude toward the poor, human rights, and toward herself.

“The change started in 1975 when I was working for the Chilean National Health Service,” she said. “The health service disintegrated, leaving the people with no medical care whatsoever. All I saw was suffering and op­pression.”

“It made me take a good look at what medicine meant to me,” she said. “ I came to a crisis or decision whether to move on and continue with my specialty, which was hand surgery, or stay. Eventually I found that to go and leave a body of people with no medical care was not consistent with what I believed in, so I opted out of the rat race.

“And this changed my whole attitude to life in a way,” she continued, “I am no longer ambitious personal­ly, I want to serve.”

It was this sense of service that caused her trouble with Chilean military authorities. On the night of Oct. 31, 1975, Dr. Cassidy was arrested in the central house on the Columban Fathers in Santiago while she was treating a sick nun. They charged her with treating a wounded revolutionary nine days earlier.

The next four days, she was subjected to electrical shocks, hypnotism and other torture by her captors.

She spent two months in jail, three weeks alone and five weeks in the company of revolutionary prisoners. She talked of receiving a diet of tea, bread and soup, with an occasional stew. She was eventually expelled from t e country.

“I have used the last six months to give witness as to what happened,’* she said. “Now I have a greater idea or service and a greater inspiration to help people.

Giving up the medical field completely and enteringthe convent is a big step for her, Dr. Cassidy said.

“The thing is, religious life is a blank check. You write out your life to God and you accept what comes, she said.

Is there hope for the people she left behind in Chile?T think there’s always hope,” she said. “ I think its

wrong not to have hope. You gain nothing but by not hav­ing hope.”

Dr. Cassidy shakes her head at the mention of U.S. financial support for the Chilean military regime. “I feel sadness that people should support a regime that causes such suffering. I have a certain amount of anger. It’s the anger and sadness that drives me on to do my kind of work,■’ she said.

Dr. Cassidy said she will enter the order of the Sacred Heart of Jesus after finishing a book on her experiences in Chile. “The only thing that matters to me now is that I do what God wants of me. I don’t lay down any conditions. If it turns out that I work as a doctor, fine.

If it turns out that I work as something else, fine. All that matters if that I should do the will of God in any par­ticular moment.”

Fasting, Farming Dancing for Poor

At the Serendipity House, the youth center at St.Jude’s Parish, fasting, farming and dancing have something in common. They are all done to help the poor and disadvantaged of the Denver area.

Since the center was opened two years ago, the young people of the parish have participated in two fastathon; have planted, nurtured and harvested crops for two sum­mers, and literally "danced the night away” in a dance marathon.

In all they have raised $3,600, collected 3,900 cans of food and harvested about 120 bushels of fresh vegetables.

Commenting on the dance marathon, Tim Hodgson, a Bear Creek High School Student, said that when it was over “ I never felt better in my life. I was one of the only ones bucking around all night. Everyone else got tired of slow dancing.” Why did he do it? “Mostly to help people who were in need of food. ”

Boys Ranch Opens Office In Denver

Colorado Boys Ranch at La Junta has opened an of­fice in D enver a t 257 Josephine Street, under the direction of Andrea Kandt.

Harold Harpet, executive director of Colorado Boys Ranch, said the new office was opened because 70 per­cent of the boys now at the ranch are from the Denver area and a large propiortion of the ranch’s financial sup­port comes from the area.

’The office will provide a meeting place for parents or families of boys a t the ranch, staff personnel and representatives of depart­ments of Social Service.

Harper said space for the office was provided by Western Federal Savings and Loan Association.

Renovation Funding Granted to Ei Pomar

El Pomar Renewal Center, the former Colorado Springs home of Mr. and Mrs. Spencer Penrose given to the Sisters of Charity as a Retreat Center in 1945, has received a grant of $54,362 from the El Pomar Foundation for renovation of the facility.

El Pomar Center provides the people of Colorado, regardless of denomination or religious affiliation, a place for spiritual refreshment, quiet and reflection. Since 1970 this ecumenical dimension has at­tracted many parish and clergy groups to enjoy this beautiful spot at the foot of Cheyenne Mountain. During that year, fol­lowing Vatican II, the Center was made available to anyone wishing to use it for spiritual growth opportunities.

The wide range of programs developed through the Center, in addition to those sponsored by parishes themselves, created a problem in the use of the facility which is now alleviated to a great extent through the generosity of the El Pomar Foundation.

A large Conference area has been created; Blessed Sacrament Chapel — a prayerful spot in the quietest area of the

house — has become the center of the retreatant’s day; a place for young people to meet, to rap, to pray, to plan has been developed; the tea house serves as a love­ly discussion area and the swimming pool is providing relaxation and refreshment during the longer programs. Private rooms, long a need to the El Pomar Retreatant, have increased in number.

Executive Director, Sister Agnes Rita McDonough, sees this additional flex­ibility allowing El Pomar to accomplish a greater service to more persons and groups interested in developing or ex­panding the spiritual dimension of their lives.

Board of Trustees President, Mrs. Ray­mond Nixon, in expressing appreciation for the grant said, “The Board of Trustees of El Pomar Renewal Center is excited at this opportunity to provide a more exten­sive service to the region. We have had this need for additional space for years. The grant will enable us to provide a finer service —- a service more in keeping with the tradition of El Pomar than has been possible before.”

S iste r Lucy - A rchd iocesan LandiadyBy James Fiedler

Sister Lucy Downey is the “landlady” to about 600 persons — although her official title is director of the Denver Archidocesan Housing Committee.

Collecting the rent and managing 116 units of low- income housing takes up a lot of her time. But in addition Sister Lucy is interested in the personal concerns and problems of all her tenants.

She refers to all the tenants as “my friends” and seems to know each one by name and address.

The 116 apartments are at four different sites — 37th and Humboldt, 1900 S. Raritan, 1300 S. Irving and 800 S. Monaco.

Sister prefers the term sites instead of housing pro­jects. She said she believes that telling people they live in p ro je c ts is “ d e m o ra liz in g , d e p re s s in g and dehumanizing.”

With the Church as a model. Sister said the purpose of the archdiocesan low-income housing program is to show that “people can learn to live with one another and can take care of one another.”

Through that, Sister said, she hopes the tenants will be able to “form a community” in which they respond to the needs of others.

The archdiocese is not involved in low-income hous­ing because it wants to be in real estate. Sister Lucy said. It’s involved, she explained, because it is “meeting a need — filling a gap.”

When Bishop George Evans approached her in 1969 about taking her present assignment, she asked him what her duties would be.

The bishop told her she would be a “witness to the Church's continued concern for the poor.”

In order to become a tenant, a person must fall under certain income limits, depending on the size of the family and financial resources.

In addition, the federal government provides rent supplements for the tenants, and welfare picks up part of the housing expenses also.

Sister Lucy is now assisted in the archdiocesan hous­ing office by Sister Teresa Rose Farley, a native of Denver, who will act as management coordinator. Sister Teresa’s principal responsiblity will be to assist the te­nants with their personal and social problems.

Many tenants. Sister Lucy explained, often need help in cutting through government red tape involving welfare payments. Social Security checks, old-age pensions and similar things.

Both nuns are Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth.Sister Lucy is a native of Butte, Montana.Sister Lucy said that the “secret of success” of the

archdiocesan housing program is Vernal Strobl, the maintenance supervisor.

Strobl. a former Navy man, “does a great job on maintenance” of the 116 apartments. Sister said. But his greatest asset to the program, she emphasized, is that “he listens to everyone’s problems.”

Strobl’s wife, Anna, has been a volunteer in the hous­ing office, and also “knows everyone,” Sister said. “Anna backs her husband 100 percent,” she added.

Strobl. whose job is to care for all the apartments on the four sites, “ is on call 24 hours.” The tenants know that ■'if they have a problem they cannot solve that Vernal will take care of it,” Sister Lucy said.

“He’s in touch with the people,” she added.The Strobls have three children and two foster children. The housing program actually began in 1968, when

Archbishop James V, Casey announced a commitment by the archdiocese of $1 million to a “program for the Disad­vantaged” and invited recommendations for the use of that money.

fyp.---—.11* J *i [

‘■ B . . f t 4 .

Low-income housing was one ot the projects recom­mended.

The archdiocese put “seed money” into the housing. Sister explained, but federal money has actually built the apartm ents, and the archdiocese is getting its “ investment” back through rents.

Among the goals of the housing program was total in­tegration. Approximately one-third of the tenants are black, a third Chicano and the remainder from all other groups.

The archdiocesan housing program aims at showing that people of diverse lifestyles and different cultures, religions and socio-economic levels are able to live together.

The housing sites, completed about six years ago, are generally townhouses built around a court, with each site containing buffet and one, two, three and four bedroom apartments.

Another reason for the success of the program is what Sister Lucy and Strobl call “self-management.”

In that self-management the residents, on their own initiative, make sure the halls and the sites are kept clean and neat.

At the 37th and Humboldt site, for example, Amadeo Baca is responsible for watering and maintaining the neat lawns. And the tenants there have also planted flowers.

In such ways. Sister explained, the people are en­couraged to show respect for another and help attain real dignity.

Sister Lucy has heard criticisms and complaints about her low-income housing sites and admits that sometimes there may be a poor housekeeper or a group of youngsters that are a little wild. But the tenants in her apartments are the same as anyone else, she contended.

She has taught school in different types of com­munities (she was once principal at Annunciation grade school) — urban, suburban and inner city — and said that “the kids are the same" in all of them.

When people call her to complain about the kids in the housing, she said, they “are simply getting rid of their hostility.”

“ Why don’t they call the parents?” she asked. “Why do they call me instead of the parents to complain about what some kids are doing?”

How often do neighborhoods call a landlord when kids are doing something — particularly when they know their names and addresses? she asked. Sister’s comment was that many people have a different attitude toward resi­dents in low-income housing.

Sister Lucy pointed out that the archdiocesan housing sites do not overburden the community system in any of the four sites-because there are only about 30 families at each location.

In addition, she stressed, the archdiocese pays taxes

on the properties.To aid the archdiocesan tenants. Sister Lucy’s office

has rewritten the lease in “ layman's language” which in­terprets the “ legal lease” paragraph by paragraph.

And archdiocesan tenants who have a grip about the way things are run by Sister Lucy and her management team are not “at the mercy” of an unheeding landlord system, because the program also provides for a grievance procedure that can handle ordinary complaints as well as objections to a possible eviction. (Sister Lucy said there have been very few real evictions.)

The real purpose of the whole program is expressed in a management outline of the Archdiocesan Housing Committee. “The Christian philosophy,” it says, “sees man as having inherent dignity because of his creation by God.” The archdiocesan housing program, it adds, “seeks to assist man by providing an environment where he may realize his inherent dignity.”

Abortion Education

Don’t Presume Teach

By Catbleen GruppThese are some headlines appearing in Catholic papers from

throughout the United States — “ Abortion Issue ‘Almost’ Broke TT_:t„>. Foes Lose ‘F irst Round’ ’’. “Carter-Mondale

‘Catholic WomenUnity” , “ClinicTicket: Anathema to Pro-Life Movement’Warn Parties on Abortion” .

What do these pro-life, anti-abortion articles have in com­mon? All possess the underlying assumption that the readers - - the Catholic population of America - - - are fluent in the pro-life message, are strongly allied with the pro-life beliefs, have writ­ten their congressmen to support the Human Life Amendment, or if they haven’t it is because they also haven’t written their best friend since they sent a Christmas card two years ago. With this as a base, readers then are taken through the nuances of political decisions and informed about the latest opening or closing of an abortion clinic.

This is simple only for an editor or for those who have a firm grasp on a life philosophy . . . but extremely presumptuous,unfair and difficult for those who are still trying to weigh the worth of the mother’s life as it relates to the child’s life, to be realistic about the psychological effect of a rape on a young woman and the child’s right to live regardless of the circumstances of its conception. There are those who are too young to see the whole of life but rather focus on their eighteen or nineteen years and find it too small to include another person, either as an addition to their own or as one that will fill the emptiness in a childless couple’s home.

These people are not to be condemned or to be reminded of a passage from the Bible. Their quandries are real and perhaps more painful to them than an anti-life supreme court decision is to a pro-life advocate.

The answer is education. Teach them that a baby is just as important as a mother who has two youngsters at home. Teach that that a baby will bring joy into the world that will erase the trauma of a violent rape. Show them that you will not pass judge­ment on them if they have a baby out of wedlock.

The textbooks are perhaps not written. Do not say that the Bi­ble is the textbook - - the work that has today has not been done for us 2,000 years ago. Someone must truly understand the hearts of all persons, must know how to reach them - - and then must do it.

The challenge must be accepted or the space underneath the headhnes in Catholic papers should be left empty because that now is what it is for many.

Question Box

VacationObligationBy Msgr. Raymond Bosler

Q. My question concerns one’s obligation to attend Mass on Sunday during a vacation or weekend outing. Does the obligation remain even when your arrangements or the nature of the trip (e.g., camping) make attendance impossible or very difficult?

A. No. Back in 1938, Father Henry Davis, S.J., in his “Moral and Pastoral Theology,” had this to say: “Any moderately grave inconvenience to mind or body, or to temporal goods, either of oneself or of another, excuses from the precept (to attend Mass on Sunday).”

He would excuse one who had to walk more than an hour to reach church. This was back in the days when we were taking an exaggerated legalistic approach to moral questions.

Q. We are taught by priests to forgive one another if in some way we hurt our fellow men. Yet some priests can have such animosity, resentment and just plain grudge toward a person to the point where they ignore the person and don’t speak to him. Why?

A. Priests are as human, weak and sinful as other men. To some of them, unfortunately, we must apply the words Jesus said about the scribes and Pharisees:

“Do everything and observe everything they tell you. But do not follow their example” (Mt. 23:3). Since priests are human, they are subject to personality weaknesses.

The priest you refer to may be paranoid, for paranoids act the way you describe. And paranoids are sick and to be pitied and helped.

Dolores Curran Talks With Parents

Over-Stimulated ChildrenA mother told me that her eight-year-old son at­

tended a birthday party and came home disap­pointed. “What was wrong with it?” she asked.

“Nothing,” came his non-answer. “ It was just the same old thing.”

The same old thing at eight would be funny if it weren’t so real today. Long before the experts talked of the bombardment on our children’s senses by the media and culture for constantly new and different experiences, parents became uneasy. We hear children gripe about a field trip because “all we did was go to the Capitol and eat lunch at the zoo.” Same old thing!

We hear students label as “a drag” an English class in which they see movies, visit television sta-' tions, and write plays. We hear our peers say of an organization, “Let’s do something,” in a tone that claims different is better.

Should we be concerned about this trend? We should at least be aware of it.

Sylvia Ashton-Warner in her book Spearpoint which details her experiences with sophisticated American kids after teaching in the outback of New Zealand, identifies the over-stimulation of American children as an educational phenomena. In her years of studying children, she observed a pattern in which the child learns from inward out: from himself to his family to his culture. His first key vocabulary words are not as apt to be Mommy, Daddy, and baby, but spaceship, Gilligan and MacDonalds. Ashton-Warner discusses the bombardment on all of us of loud music, startling visuals, films, new and exciting ex­

periences, and the like, suggesting that we’re prolonging in children a thirst for constantly chang­ing methods, materials and experiences.

Convinced that instead of more experiences, our children need respite in the form of quiet and serenity, she pulled her class aside, put them on a rug in a corner and read to them while their clas­smates swirled around in open concept learning ac­tivities like making pottery and catching butterflies.

She wasn’t terribly popular as an innovative teacher. She made younger creative teachers ner­vous, partly, I suspect, because they sensed she was right. Often innovative teaching is only change for the sake of change.

Teaching is a terribly demanding job today and capturing children’s interest becomes harder each year. Once a child has been mesmerized by Sesame Street, he’s not likely to get excited about Dick and Jane. It was the emergence of this kind of child that began the move toward creative and innovative teaching techniques the past two decades.

But, given all that, the teacher and the school may be contributing to the problem rather than diminishing it by joining the frenzy for the new and different instead of becoming a lone witness, as Ashton-Warner did who discovered a deeper need in her students: a need for quiet calm mastery of themselves and then of their learning tools.

Parents, too, might pause and check themselves occasionally, asking, “Are we giving our children more stimulation when they want less? How often do we just do something calming together or are we forever seeking new things to do and places to go?”

Hunger for Spirit Satisfied at Lord’s Tabie41stInternationalEucharisticCongress

By MSGR. JOHN P. FOLEY“Where there’s life, there’s breath.”The phrase is familiar enough — but the implica­

tions of it may not be.The Latin word for breath is “spiritus” — a word

which is sometimes used to describe the manner of ex­istence of angels; a word which is sometimes used to describe the human principle of life, the soul; a word which is used, above all, as the Name of the Third Person of the Trinity.

Breath indicates both vitality and unity. It in­dicates vitality because, where there’s breath, there’s life. It indicates unity because, where there’s breath, there’s one being doing the breathing; not disunited, disjointed arms and legs, but one truly integral being.

The word “spiritus” or spirit is used of angels because, like breath, they are real but intangible — and the simultaneous invisibility and reality of breath made it an excellent analogy for angels who are im­material and invisible, but nevertheless real.

The word “spiritus” or spirit is used of the soul because, like breath, the soul is real but intangible. Breath is a sign of life; the soul is the principle of life.

The word “spiritus” or spirit is used of the Third Person of the Trinity because, like breath itself, the Holy Spirit is real but intangible.

Breath is a sign of vitality; the Holy Spirit is the source of life and the personification of love. Breath is the sign that one living being is present; the Holy Spirit is one with the Father and the Son and is the principle of unity among all things.

Thus it is no accident that in the third Eucharistic Prayer, the priest prays: “Grant that we, who are nourished by His Body and Blood, may be filled with the Holy Spirit, and become one body, one spirit in Christ.”

There is truly a hunger for vitality. One who is tru­ly vital is called “spirited” or “animated” ; one who is on the verge of death — or ready to “expire” , breathe out the spirit — is often described as “fighting for breath.”

There is truly a hunger for unity. One who is truly “together,” consistent in attitudes and actions, is cal­led a person of integrity, or internal unity; one who is

effectively united in society is called well-integrated: one who is afflicted with disease or vice literally suf­fers physical or moral dis-integration.

Thus those who are nourished with the Body and Blood of Christ in the Eucharist satisfy their hunger for vitality and for unity. They truly become one body, one spirit in Christ.

As the human body is united and kept integral through one soul, those incorporated into the Mystical Body of Christ, His Church, are united and are kept together by one Spirit.

The hunger for the Spirit is literally a hunger for greater vitality, for greater unity. Since God is one. His Spirit is truly communicated to those who are nourished by the Body and Blood of His Son.

The hunger for the Spirit is truly satisfied at the table of the Lord.

Those whose hunger is thus satisfied are alive with a life which death does not end, but merely changes: those whose hunger is thus satisfied are united with God and with other human beings and within themselves with a unity that brings integrity and har­mony on earth and never-endinglove in heaven, where the hunger for the Spirit is forever satisfied in God.

Reader Fries FreyEditor:

I grow weary of the constant negative haranguing of the position of the Catholic Church on abortion in the Readers’ Forum of the Register. Why do some persons consider themselves more qualified for defining faith and morals than the Church which Christ organized?

The decision on abortion is always a social one, for man and woman cooperate in starting a new life and are expected to take responsibility for their action. That which is conceived is never part of the woman’s body. “There is never any actual intermingling of blood

be tw een the embryo and the mother. The womb provides ..Nourishment and the protective environment for -^developing; nothing more.” (“Life before Birth,” Life-

Time Education, New York, 1972) A series of photos published by Life-Time show the daily development of the fetus from the joining of the sperm to the ovum to final delivery. From those photos it can be seen scientifically, biologically that from the first moment of conception this is human, a new life developing, beyond the shadow of a doubt.

Every year millions upon millions of abortions are performed throughout the world, a large portion of them legal. This means that some nations approve legally the destruction of new life which is proved to be human by scientific and objective means. Therefore, nations per­mitting abortions are sanctioning murder.

This is no secret. Neither is the fact that abortions, although illegal until 1973, have always been available to American women who could afford to get someone to murder their children. A wealthy woman could always find a safe murder; the poor were obliged to resort to quacks for their murders. Now the government gives them my tax money and yours, to pay for these crimes. Overturning the Supreme Court’s decision would only mean a reversion to the former situation. It might do lit­tle in the way of preventing abortions. What it would do is remove the sanctioning of murder by the United States government, making abortion a personal crime rather than official approval of murder. Also, my tax money could be used for worthy purposes.

Is the world to believe that males (black and white) who derive the pleasure of sexual intercourse with black or chicano women would refuse to take the responsibility for their acts, but would rather see the cooperators in conception alone take the responsibility for the destruc­tion of the newly-started life of a human?

You can't instill morality by approving murder, and it shows you in a very hypocritical light when you attempt to destroy life with one hand and with the other profess your undying love for the black and chicano women “writhing in blood and gore.”

As someone who uses her brain for the purpose God intended, to reason. I see clearly the logic of the position holding consistently in all areas dealing with life, for I have historically traced changing attitudes toward life in nations of the past and found that the beginning of destruction is always contraception, then abortion and in­fanticide, then sterilization, and finally active euthanasia, that is, elimination of persons judged to be “inconvenient” to have around. I am finding it harder and harder to understand how persons who are daily growing older favor signing their own death warrant, because the aged are not convenient to have around in our society.

The Pope’s encyclical on birth control is a courageous restatement of the natural position of man’s respon­sibility for his acts, and if he/she does not want the conse­quences, let him/her refrain from the acts leading to such consequences. Although we like to think that the vast ma­jority of Americans are intelligent and should be able to connect responsibility with cause and effect, there are those who have a strong sex urge without the necessary accompanying ability to accept social consequences. These resort to such mass murder of defenseless innocent victims that they can be categorized with none otuer than Adolph Hitler.

Unwanted children in the United States mean added inconvenience. In under-developed countries it can often mean intensified starvation and death for entire families. Of course, no genuine Catholic would think of murdering for the sake of convenience, and no sensible person will

Readers’ ForumLetters to the Editor

place an act for which he does not want to risk the possi­ble consequences. People in underdeveloped countries who have the faith and a supernatural point of view know that any life, no matter how short or how full of suffering, is worth living for heaven. Suffering is a lesser evil than murder.

Since the Mass is the greatest act of worship and the source of all my strength as a Catholic, I attend as often as I can, and at the same time I would not contemplate for one instant giving so much as a penny to birth control or abortion organizations whose pursuits amount to genocide and the destruction of the human right to life, using convenience, not mature responsibility, as the basis for life-and-death decisions.

My estrangement from the Supreme Court is not yet complete. But watching its reversion to the position it took in the Dred Scott Case of 1857—declaring a black man is just property and can be treated like a piece of furniture—makes many of the things I learned in Civics come to life. Decisions can be reversed, and, pray God! this abortion decision must follow the tracks of the Dred Scott Case if America is to survive as a Christian nation rooted in the “inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness..

All Men MatterEditor:

. . . Christ never suggested that what he did or asked us to do would be easy. On the contrary. He spoke of hav­ing no place to lay His head. He talked of people leaving home and family for His sake. He asked His apostles if they could drink from the same cup as He. He called on His followers to take up their crosses and follow Him. Flverything He is said and did condemns our abortion mentality and our abortion clinics, which are nothing more than wayside trashcans for the human beings we refuse to love and to bear. We are the ones rejecting these children. Christ never did and His Church certainly can’t.

G. K. Chesterton once wrote, “All men matter. You matter. I matter. It’s the hardest thing in theology to believe." Modern man has particular difficulty believing this. Far more than morality is at stake in the abortion controversy. The Catholic Church has entered the fray not as keeper of public morals, but in a far more impor­tant capacity — as keeper of man’s humanness and value.

The Church mirrors to our jaded senses the impor­tance, the sanctity, of each and every one of us, Catholic and'non-Catholic, poor and rich, male and female, red, yellow, brown, black and white. Better that all of our churches and cathedrals be dismantled stone by stone than that the Church even so much as suggest that any human being, born or unborn, is unwanted, meaningless, unfit, expendable or outside the loving concern of Christ. We can worship God in homes, tents or vacant lots, if need be; but we cannot worship Him in expediency and betrayal. Not the most solemn rites in the most splendid cathedrals could claim our allegiance or nuture our lives in the face of such a broken faith.

I have written to each candidate, whether they be* a candidate for the White House, the Senate or the House, to inform them that we will not. cannot, support or vote for any candidate who favors abortion, euthanasia or the sterilization of any human being, especially our American Indian women and girls. This is one way to kill off the In­dian peoples.

If all of you who read this feel as we do on those ques­tions, write letters too. Write them every week to each candidate till November. Ask your friends and relatives in other states to write letters too.

Immorality UnjustifiableRe: “ Haranguing on Abortion” , opinions voiced by one

Scott C. Frey.I think he is ready for some serious, personal soul

searching, I trust he knows what a soul is. It is God-given to each of His children, along with a mind and the breath of life. He may “blow” his mind, take away the breath of life but his soul is not his to deny.

So he no longer attends Mass. (Undoubtedly, the Church is utterly lost without his participation!) Well, 1 don’t attend Mass anymore either but for other reasons. However, raised as a Christian, I was taught, among other things, the Ten Commandments, one of which states, quite simply, “Thou shalt not kill.”

Fancy words and clever dialogue cannot change that. Mr. F'rey said, “You can’t instill morality with a club” . Neither can you justify immorality with a pen.

C. L. Holonbek_ . DenverQuestion of JusticeFMitor;

In regard to your article in the July 7 issue, “ Who Should Pay For Our Schools?” , I assume it will be the same people who have always paid—all the parishoners in the diocese. Instead of spending any amount of time try­ing to decide how the schools should be supported, perhaps this would be the time to decide IF the schools should be supported by the parishes at all.

Allow me to quote some figures form the publication The Quest for Justice written as a result of the Bishop’s Synod in 1971. One of the facts brought up was that ap­proximately 9% of the Catholic population is receiving 557c of the church's resources through the parochial school system. The question of justice is extremely critical when many of the recipients are from more af­fluent families and when the needs of poorer children, and other groups and ages of Catholics are so extreme. Adult education, care for the elderly, funding for social involve­ment and educational projects for the poor, adequate religious education for the majority of Catholic children who do not attend parochial schools and many, many more.

. . . How just is it for a parish to support a school when it must exclude other social action in order to keep the school operating? When a group in our parish was asked to resettle a Vietnamese family, the parish council had to turn down their request for money as there was no parish money available. However, last year our parish spent $6- 6,000 in subsidies to the school and this year we are enlarging the school. This will entail a sizeable loan for the parish to take on which will be over and above the yearly subsidy. This might answer your question about who supports the schools—at least our school.

Mrs. Dotty Nittler Denver

Catholics-School or NotEditor:

We read the article on “ Who Is Going to Pay?” for Catholic Schools. My husband's remark was to tax every Catholic Church regardless if they have a school or not. Put this money into one large fund, then distribute amongst the schools.

We are all Catholics, school or no school. Just take a look at the Mormon Church. They have a system, why can t we? Mrs. Norman A. Huey

Blues President Urges Community Effort

Health Cost Responsibility Shared by AllBy Richard Tucker

It’s everybody’s respon­sibility to try and hold down health costs, according to the new president of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Colorado.

The Blues have “a par­ticular responsibility” and are trying to m eet it, Jerome H. Lynch told a press luncheon last Tuesday.

But, he said, the problem won’t be solved until doc­tors, hospitals, patients, e m p lo y e rs and s ta te legislators join the non­profit hospital insurance companies in seeking solu­tions.

Lynch, who has recently joined the Colorado plans’ team after serving five years as executive vice president of Blue Cross-Blue Shield in Philadelphia, met with media representatives in an attempt to present a “new” image to the press.

Lynch was candid in answering questions from the media people, some of whom appear to be more interested in trumpeting Blue Cross- Blue Shield rates than in listening to the problems.

In effect. Lynch said that

‘‘sure, we’ve got problems, but we’re trying to solve them and will do it with your help.”

He pointed out there is no way Blue Cross-Blue Shield will go into bankruptcy, as som e have p re d ic te d . Instead, he said there is an even greater need for the health insurance programs than when they w ere launched in 1938.

Lynch’s style is different from that of his predecessor, John Vance, who built Blue Cross and Blue Shield from the early days.

The Rev. C. B. Woodrich and Jim Pierson, editor and business manager of the Register, were among those who heard Lynch describe problems of Blue Cross and Blue Shield, which lost some $21 million last year from reserve funds.

Lynch told how the Blues are trying to hold down their own administrative costs and urged a community ef­fort to help keep the spirall­ing cost of health care from spiralling even more.

Urgently needed. Lynch said, is a state plan for health care to avoid duplica­

and a unused

tion of services proliferation of hospital beds.

Despite a state certificate- of-need law. Lynch said hospitals are continuing to add new beds to an already overbedded situation. There is no overall state plan, he

said, so local pride is the sole factor in a community decision to build a new hospital or addition.

He said the same situation applies to new equipment, such as the new ‘‘CA'T scan­ners” which ‘‘everybody is rushing to buy” even though

they may not be needed in every hospital on the block.

Lynch urged hospitals to share facilities like the new scanners, which cost from $400,000 to $600,000 just to buy and install.

The Blues president said there also should be ongoing review of existing facilities to be sure the original need for them is still there, and utilization review to prevent unnecessary hospitalization and surgery.

Lynch said Blue Cross and Blue Shield has cut its operating staff from 1,400 employes to 1,280 this year with more cuts to come, in­cluding some management personnel.

Following an order by State Insurance Commis­sioner J. Richard Barnes, he said Blue Cross and Blue Shield also has cut its pay­ments to doctors by 5 per cent.

A similar 5 per cent cut in payments to hospitals hasn’t been a c c e p te d by the Colorado Hospital Associa­tion. If the hospitals don’t go along, Barnes ordered the Blues to cancel their con­tracts.

Lynch has asked Barnes to rescind the cancellation order because he feels that wouldn’t help either the Blues, the hospitals or the patients.

If hospital contracts are cancelled, he said, payments would be made directly to subscribers for treatment at non-member hospitals. But such payments are limited to $15 a day, he said, and most patients wouldn’t be able to make up the dif­ference out of their own pockets.

Lynch said he doesn’t think Barnes’ order was “unfair,” but declared he would have done things dif­ferently if he had been in that position. ■

One part of the commis­sioners’ order that has caused considerable problems for the Blues, according to Lynch, is the directive for Blue Cross-Blue Shield to implement a 33 per cent rate increase on July 1 instead of when contracts expired or at the end of the year.

When informed their rates would go up now instead of later. Lynch said many groups such as labor unions pulled out of the plans and went shopping for lower rates.

Lynch pointed out Barnes’ orders, which gave the Blues $2.5 million of a $7.9 million rate increase request, was designed to c a rry the

' operations through 1976.Even with various cost-

containment measures, he said Blue Cross and Blue Shield will ask for another rate hike for 1977. That re­quest, probably ranging from 5 to 15 per cent, will be submitted to Barnes inSeptember, Lynch said.

As a non-profit corpora­tion, Lynch said Blue Cross and Blue Shield isn’t trying to make money but to break even. He noted that, in 1975, the companies paid out $1.12 in benefits for every dollar in premiums received.

Unlike private insurance carriers. Lynch pointed out that Blue Cross-Blue Shield accepts almost anybody as a subscriber, including the sick. Without such coverage, he said most people wouldn’t be able to afford doctor or hospital care.

The following is the text of Archbishop James V. Casey’s homily delivered August 1 at the Cathedral Mass observing the International Eucharistic Congress:

One hundred years ago today, the President of the United States proclaimed the territory of Colorado to be a

, State of the union. In this bi-centennial year of our country, in this centennial year of our State, the 41st

j International Eucharistic Congress has gathered this day L in Philadelphia, the first such world-wide assembly in the 1 United States in 50 years and only the 2nd ever to take

place in this country.For the next 8 days, this assembly of Catholics and

other Christians from every part of the world will be giv­ing thanks for God’s gift of Himself in Jesus Christ and to demonstrate publicly their faith in, their love for and their commitment to Jesus in the Eucharist. You and I come together this afternoon in our Cathedral church to demonstrate our unity with all of the People of God who are together in Philadelphia; and to publicly proclaim our faith in, our love for, our committemnt to Jesus in the Eucharist.

On this day, the centennial of the founding of our beautiful State of Colorado . . . in this bicentennial year of our beloved nation . . . we celebrate in thanksgiving the many things given us in the past to bring us to this day and to pray for direction in the future. We are grateful for the great sacrifices, the lives and suffering of so many who have made it possible for you and me to pursue life, liberty and happiness in our State and country.

In the perspective of our faith, we today look back in gratitude to the abundant evidence that God loves us and has given us a great deal. We look back to the first Christmas to the gift of God’ Son, to Calvary and the shed­ding of His body and blood on the cross, to His resurrec­tion and ascension to the Father; and to the gift of the Holy Spirit on Pentecost, a gift of the Father that enables the action of Jesus on the Cross to go on and on . . . “Behold, I shall be with you even to the very end of the world.”

But, we have not only received; we also have given. We give of our selves in the service of our country, our state, of our fellow human beings. The Father sent the Holy

Archbishop Casey concelebrates Mass at the Cathedral in observance of the Eucharistic Congress.

Spirit to us so that, by the power of the Holy Spirit work­ing in and through us, this Kingdom of our world might grow according to God’ plan into His Kingdom for which we pray daily in the Our Father . . . “Thy Kingdom come . . . ”

We gather here today in response to the command of Christ: “Do this in remenbrance of Me.” We are never more God’s people than when we gather, as a. community of believers, bound together, united together in Christ, to celebrate the Eucharist. We share the one body of Christ; we are made one with Him and give thanks to the Father that we are reconciled to Him and to one another.

We do not however celebrate the Eucharist merely to help ourselves. We come to the Eucharist to offer ourselves so that we can help fulfill the plan of God. We come to be strengthened, to be united together in Christ, to offer ourselves for service in the Kingdom of God.

In the Eucharistic liturgy, we take the simple symbols of life to offer to God: bread and wine. Think of all the labor and cooperation of men and women that pours into the making of a loaf of bread and a cup of wine. Ground was ploughed; seeds were sown; machinery was made; trains, planes; trucks transported the fruit of the harvest. So we pray at the Offertory: “Blessed are you. Lord God of all creation. Thru your goodness we have this bread to offer . . . which earth has given and human hands have made . . . this wine to offer, fruit of the vine and work of human hands.” Someone has written that wine is the eternal proof that God loves us and wants us to be hap­py-

We come to the Eucharistic sacrifice to offer ourselves to God. We pledge to live the Eucharist daily in our lives. We no longer may come to Mass just to be alone with God. Rather we are united together in the Eucharist as a community of God’s people, committed to work for the coming of His Kingdom. That is why at the Eucharistic Congress in Philadelphia for 8 days this assembly of Christian people will prayerfully consider the many hungers of humanity.

The violence of war continues to scar the face of the earth. The world hungers for an equitable distribution of the goods of this life. It hungers for an end to prejudice and hatred; for truth and freedom and justice. We ex­perience impatience, jealousy, misunderstandings, an absence of charity . . . everywhere in our country and state and even in our own homes.

All these hungers and concerns; all our pains of divisiveness we bring to the Eucharist with a plea for the unifying grace of Christ and to commit ourselves to work for the fulfillment of God’ Kingdom on earth. In all of our Centennial and Bicentennial observances, we review our very imperfect history and build on it for the future. The Kingdom of God on earth is still in the making. So also the American dream of Liberty and Justice for all is still being dreamed.

Today and during the week of this 41st Eucharistic Congress, let us pray that it will help all of us to renew our faith, our hope, our love and our gratitude for the great gift of our Lord in the Eucharist; and to rededicate ourselves, in union with Him, to the task of responding generously to the hungers of the human family.

Eucharist Can Meet All Needs

PHILADELPHIA — The Eucharist can meet the needs of all Catholics regardless of how varied and great these needs are, Australian Cardinal James Robert Knox told the thousands at the opening Mass of the 41st Inter­national Eucharistic Congress.

Cardinal Knox, who was the personal representative of the Pope, presided at the solemn noontime Mass in Philadelphia’s 11-year-old Brownstone Cathedral of Sts. Peter and Paul opening the eight-day Congress.

Thirty-one Cardinals and more than 160 Bishops joined the Royal Family of Monaco and about 2,000 lay people from five continents in the Cathedral. Several thousand others followed the Mass in sunny, windy weather outside the Cathedral or on television in the adjoining chapel.

Bishop George R. Evans represented the Archdiocese of Denver at the Congress.

The Eucharistic Congress, whose theme is “The Eucharist and the Hungers of the Human Family,” is stressing the social dimension of the Eucharist.

About a million people are expected to attend at least part of the Congress.

“No matter how great and varied the needs of each of the fa ith fu l,” asserted Cardinal Knox from the Cathedral’s resplendent gold and blue interior, “the Eucharist can meet them all.”

“Christ,” the Cardinal continued, “ is the solution of all difficulties. If we ask why the world in its strife, tribula­tion and unhappiness has not yet tried this solution, we may be obliged to ask ourselves: Have we Christians real­ly tried this solution?”

The legate warned the dignitaries and invited guests that those “engrossed in transient affairs” and a comfor­table lifestyle “cannot really appreciate the great gift of the Eucharist.”

Before the gold-robed 80-voice National Collegiate Choir began singing a specially commissioned Mass Proper, Cardinal Knox presented a chalice to Cardinal John Krol of Philadelphia on behalf of Pope Paul VI.

The chalice which was used during the Mass was first given to Pope Pius VI by King Charles III of Spain in the first years of American independence. It was made with gold and silver from the New World. Opening Mass of International Eucharistic Congress in Philadelphia.

In Colorado Springs

‘Don Quixote’ Rides Again“Man of La Mancha” is the story of a man who has

seen life, knows the anguish it can hold, and continues to live according to his ideals.

It is the musical version of the monumental novel "Don Quixote” by the world famed Spanish writer Cer­vantes.

Don Quixote, the principal character, filled with idealism, fancies himself a knight out to rescue damsels in distress and to right the wrongs of the world.

He is aided in his adventures — or misadventures — by his squire Sancho Panza.

But despite the trials he encounters, he hangs on to his idealism and continues “To Dream the Impossible Dream” — a hit song in the musical.

The Bridge Players, a part of the Hallando Program founded by Father Thomas Woerth, are presenting the Broadway hit “Man of La Mancha” in Colorado Springs.

Remaining performances are scheduled for Aug. 4, 6 and 7 at 7;30 p.m. at the First United Methodist Theater, 420 N. Nevada Avenue. Tickets can be obtained by calling the Hallando Program, 471-9270, or Pikes Peak Arts Coun­cil, 636-1228. Reserved seats are ?3 and general admission seats are $2.50.

The Bridge Players are young adults from various parishes, high schools and colleges in Colorado Springs.

The troupe gives the players an opportunity to use and develop their artistic and acting abilities.

Neumann Canonization

'Not Whether But When

No date has been set yet for the canonization of Bles­sed John Neumann, a former bishop of Philadelphia, ac­cording to Cardinal John Krol of Philadelphia.

Cardinal Krol met with Pope Paul VI recently to dis­cuss the canonization.

The cardinal said that the question remaining is “not whether but when” Bishop Neumann will be canonized.

There had been specula­tion that Neumann would be canonized during the 41st International Eucharistic Congress, being held in Philadelphia Aug. 1-8.

Jo h n N ep o m u cen e Neumann (1811-1860), was born in Bohemia but was or­dained a priest in New York in 1836. He served as a priest among German settlers in New York state before join­ing the Redemptorist order in 1840.

He w as b ish o p of Philadelphia from 1852 until his death.

On July 13, the final miracle in the canonization process went before the

cardinal-members of the Congregation for Saints’ Causes and was approved.

The c o n g r e g a t io n ’s medical board judged last December that the cancer cure of Michael Flanigan of Wildwood Villas, N.J., was beyond the scope of scien­tific explanation.

Officials of the congrega­tion, other than cardinals, approved the miracle as at­tribute to Bishop Neumann’s intercession on June 1.

The next step in the process is the presentation of all documents in the case to the pope, who a fte r rev ie w and a p p ro v a l, customarily announces his decision to elevate a person to sainthood to a consistory of cardinals.

R ed em p to ris t F a th e r Nicola Ferrante, postular for Bishop N eum ann’s canonization causem said in July that no difficulties were expected to bar the Pope’s final approval.

W hen c a n o n iz e d , Neumann will become the first male U.S. saint.

New Twist to Helping PeopleChurches are in the business of helping people. Now

they can add a new twist to “helping” by joining the Internal Revenue Service in an interesting and rewarding venture.

For the eighth consecutive year, the IRS is con­ducting a Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program. People helping people with their tax returns is basically what the VITA program is all about.

It is no secret that thousands of low-income taxpayers — especially senior citizens and individuals who speak very little English — find it difficult to prepare their own returns. The result is that many of these people turn to a professional tax return preparer for assistance, like mil­lions of other taxpayers who seek out paid professional help during the filing season.

The IRS recognizes the important role carried out by the tax returns preparation industry, but many low- income taxpayers who have simple 1040A returns to prepare can not afford to pay for professional assistance.

This is where church groups and VITA come into play. If a church can enlist members to help people com­plete their tax returns fully and accurately, without charge, the IRS will provide training for these helpers or assistors in basic income tax procedures. This training

Business NewsColo. State Patrol Recruits MinoritiesThe Colorado State Patrol

has had a formal minority recruiting program since 1973. At the present time minority officers number 6.8% within the uniformed force of the State Patrol.

On June 16, Patrol Chief C. Wayne Keith initiated an in- ten s ified cam paign to recruit minority personnel for the uniformed rank. This campaign utilized recruiting pamphlets, the news media, and the specialized use of minority State Patrolmen. Twelve minority Patrolmen were assigned throughout the state to full time recruit­ment of the minority pop­ulace. This fill time assign­ment was for a limited time and was very successful.

Of the 410 applicants tak­ing the te s t for S ta te Patrolmen in July. 1976, 46% were minority members. A breakdown of the minority applicants gives a total of 187 minority applicants. Members of the Black race totaled 40. Chicanos 118, and women 29. The State Patrol is encouraged by this high number of minority applica­tions and will continue its ef­forts in minority recruit­ment.

The State Patrol is now in the process of creating a Cadet Program. It is hoped that Federal funding will be available to assist with this program. Chief Keith said that there has been a need for this type of program for

With a Cadet Program a person can be hired and begin their on-the- job tra in ing w ithin the Department.

prepares these assistors to help taxpayers in preparing their returns, especially those who file the Short Form 1040A.

And in scheduling the VITA training sessions, ar­rangements are left to the discretion of the local church.

This is how VITA works. An interested church enlists 25 members who are willing to serve as VITA assistors. The church makes arrangements to have its social hall available every Wednesday evening from 7 to 9 p.m. for providing assistance.

The IRS, in turn, trains the assistors, provides them with the necessary forms, schedules and background materials. The IRS also gives the church posters, flyers, and other informational materials to help alert taxpayers to the free assistance.

Right now the IRS is contacting groups and organiza­tions to participate in the VITA program. Groups which have not been contacted but would like to participate in this unique “people helping" activity should write; Inter­nal Revenue Service, Taxpayer Service Division, 1050 17th Street, Denver, Colorado 80202, ATTN: VITA Coor­dinator.

Churches will not be the only ones providing assistors for VITA. Help, again this year, will come from com­munity action groups, welfare workers, public service and governmental people, as well as fraternal society members.

Neighborhood Group Makes a Difference

“You can’t fight city hall,” according to some people.

There are many who believe that what happens in the city is controlled by city hall, big business, or some such power, and that individuals can do little to change things around them.

But members of a new Denver organiza­tion called Northwest Neighbors don’t agree with that.

This is the way Northwest Neighbors work: Residents, or neighbors, who live in the Northwest section of Denver get together about every two weeks or so to share in a potluck supper, become better acquainted and talk over issues affecting them. There are no dues, or even volun­tary collections. One person in the group volunteers to sponsor the meeting, which entails making physical arrangements, calling old members and inviting new members, and acting as chairman of the meeting itself. The sponsor chooses the is­sues he or she wishes to discuss that even­ing, and all join in for an old-fashioned town meeting.

To date, although many neighborhood and city-wide issues have been discussed, no formal action has been taken by the group “for or against” anything.

Most of the time has been spent getting to know one another and listening to the needs, desires and hopes of each of the neighbors.

Guest speakers are often asked to attend the meetings. For instance, a represen­tative from the city planner’s office recently presented the city’s plan for Northwest Denver.

The group’s immediate goal is to cover the Northwest quadrant block-by-block, meeting the people. That effort will be climaxed by an outdoor festival in September.

No one is really too sure just where this idea of neighborhood groups originated, but it has spread so rapidly that nearly every area of Denver now has a neighborhood group.

Binding all of these small neighborhoods together is a larger Inter-Neighborhood group.

The meetings of the Inter-Neighborhood are handled in mifch the same loosely structured manner, moving each time to the neighborhood sponsoring that par­ticular meeting.

A newsletter aptly called “ Inter- Neighborhood Cooperation” is published after each city-wide meeting, telling of the issues that were discussed, naming those attending the meeting, and passing on general neighborhood news.

Anyone interested in meeting times and places of neighborhood groups may call Emilio Dominquez, 433-7829, or Barbara Yost, 477-2295.

Colorado residents can now get clear, up-to-date and authoritative answers and counseling for such ques­tions by calling CCIS, toll free, 1 (800) 332-1850 or 333- 1516 in Metro Denver.

One of the chief services that CCIS provides, ac­cording to Joel Schmidt of the Colorado Regional C a n c e r C e n te r , is “emotional support through information.”

A great many “emotional problems” arise when a person realizes he or a relative has cancer, Schmidt said.

The s ta ff of tra ined volunteer counselors does not transmit medical advice but provides information on cancer diagnosis, prevention and rehabilitation, as well as on community resources, organizations and health care institutions that have cancer-related services.

The Colorado Cancer In­formation Service operates

from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, with a backup line provided during off-hours.

The objectives of the ser­vice are:

• Provide timely, useful and accurate cancer control information;

• Provide health profes­sionals, upon request, with inform ation concerning cancer prevention, detec­tion, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation;

• Assist the public to perceive cancer as not necessarily fatal;

• Assure the sharing of the latest cancer informa­tion among health care professionals;

• Assist the public in ob­taining professional con­sultation and referrals to ap­propriate community agen­cies.

CCIS is funded through a National Cancer Institute contract with the Colorado Regional Cancer Center, and is cospon.sored by the Colorado division of the American Cancer Society.

Paul Anthony- ‘I Guess the Lord Needed H im ’By Cathleen Grupp Register Reporter

“He was the kind of kid I could say I would like for my own son . . . I was that proud of him.” Thus Hazen Moore, coach of the Regis High School rifle team, sum­med up his feelings about the 1976 graduate, Paul Anthony.

Paul, a National Merit Scholarship win­ner, who was to have begun studies in anthropology at the U niversity of Colorado, was shot by a sniper at a west Denver root beer stand where he worked on Tuesday, July 27, and died in Colorado General Hospital the next day.

The eighteen-year-old son of Dr. and Mrs. Ward Anthony, 3113 Teller St., was

the fifth of 11 children in the family.Mr. Moore recalled the day that Paul

came to join the rifle team. “He was blind in the right eye and I almost had to tell him, ‘you can’t shoot,’ but I said, ‘I don’t know what you are going to do with only one eye, you’d have to shoot with your left eye’, and he did. He became one of the best I had. When he made a commitment to work, he’d work.” Paul’s blindness in his right eye was something that few of his classmates were aware of, Mr. Moore said. “ When he made a poor shot, he made no excuses by referring to his blindness. ’’

Each year Mr. Moore presents a club award to the boy who is “like Paul was — professional, no nonsense, no trouble . . .

Bingo buffs, Sr. Eustochia Blais, Sr. Donatilla Maslow and Sr. Andrea Friedman.

_______ Sisters.......... ..... Feted

There was a festive air at Mount Saint F rancis in Colorado Springs recently when one hundred and thirty-five Senior Sisters of the Archdiocese of Denver gathered for their annual picnic. Amid colorful Bi­centennial decorations, the Sisters enjoyed a box lunch while being entertained vocally and instrumentally by a group of Woodmen Val­ley Area children under the direction of Sister Ann Wemhoff.

An intense Bingo game was made more competiive by the sight of a table laden with an asso rtm en t of mysteriously shaped, gaily wrapped prizes. Sr. Prima was the door-prize winner.

M idafternoon re f re sh ­ments followed through the patriotic motif in ice cream squares decorated with American flags. Refresh­m ents and prizes were provided by the Knights of Columbus.

Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament and comments from Bishop George Evans brought the celebration to its conclusion.

The annual picnic as well as seasonal liturgies, a lec­ture series, and a recogni­tion tea for Jubilarians, are sponsored by the Intercom­munity Retirement Commit­tee of the Archdiocesan Sisters’ Council.

Sr. Charles Burns looks like a winner.

for hanging in there. I gave it to Paul this year.”

The final sesson of the rifle team each year is a fun day. This year Paul could not make it but sent a note with his brother to Mr. Moore. In it he told the coach who volunteers his time and buys supplies with his own money, “There’s no way I can thank you. You’ve given of yourself to me for four years . . . you’ve done too much and received too little.” Paul said he

hoped to see Mr. Moore again soon and ad­ded “ I’m sorry I couldn't make it. I was looking forward to it. Now I have to work instead.”

“I guess the -good Lord needed him worse than we did.” Mr. Moore concluded, “but he would want everything to continue forward.”

Memorial services for Paul were held at the grotto at Regis High School on Friday, July 30.

Dining Out

Mega RestaurantBy Dick Tucker

There are dozens of Mex­ican restaurants in Denver, many of which have little more than their reputations to sustain them.

Not so with the Mega Restaurant at 8611 W. Colfax Ave. in Lakewood. Here, the food far outshines the numbers of people partaking of the excellent fare.

Maybe merchandising is the answer to owner Don Reano’s attempts to attract diners to his unpretentious e a te ry th a t s e a ts 150 persons, but is seldom even close to capacity.

For one thing, Reano figures many people don’t know the place has changed hands since he took over about a year ago, installing his restaurant to replace a succession of what he calls "dives" that used to be there.

Reano didn’t mention it, but he might want to look into the matter of exterior signs to let people know he’s there.

Located in a string of small shops, the Mega has a new front and a marquee- type sign delcaring it’s a restaurant and lounge. But, it’s back from the street and Colfax travelers are apt to pass right by unless they’re looking for it.

Also, the outdoor sign says nothing about the kind of food that can be found in­side. If you're looking for Mexican food, there is no clue until you go inside and look at the menu that the Mega serves it.

In fact, Mega isn’t even a Mexican word. It’s Greek, meaning “large,” “great” or “powerful.”

Once inside, however, the food takes over. I doubt if you can find better Mexican food in the area — or even as good.

Advertising “large drinks, great prices and powerful food,” the Mega starts you o ff w ith k in g -s iz e d Maurgerita’s that can’t be described as anything but excellent.

With the drinks, you can munch on taco ships dipped in the usual red chili sauce or the less-usual chile con queso, a tasty cheese sauce which Reano features in many of the dishes prepared by Paul Thompson.

The m unching stops, though, when you start on the entrees. A Mexican food fan like me could easily make a pig of himself.

With guacamole salad made with fresh avocado, I sampled a beef burrito, ($1.30) chili relleno ($1.40) and Mega tostada (95 cents), w h ile my co m p a n io n ordered a unique enchilada casserole ($1.95).

The latter dish, which Reano says can’t be found anywhere else in Denver, is a delicious blend of beef, rice and onions topped with sour cream and con queso.

Like everything else, the casserole portions are sizeable. In fact, you cer­tainly don’t have to try as many different dishes as I did to stuff yourself.

Unlike many Mexican re s ta u ra n ts , the Mega doesn’t drown its burritos in chili sauce. The beef or bean burritos are topped with con queso but a green chili bowl can be ordered on the side for 30 cents — with plain flour tortillas for dipping or for pouring on other dishes.

If you’re one of those peo­ple who think Mexican food

has to be super hot, then maybe the Mega isn’t quite right for you. I happen to think Mexican food should have just a hint of chili pep­per taste to impart flavor, not overwhelm vou.

Miller, Tommy Dorsey, Ar­tie Shaw, Woody Herman and others of the big band swing era.

“ A waiter I’m not, but I’m a great busboy,” says Reano in em phasizing h e ’s a

I can’t imagine it, but if you don’t like Mexican food, there are the traditional steaks, chicken, shrimp, lobster tail (the most expen­sive item at $10.25), chef’s salad and sandwiches.

R eflecting his Italian heritage, Reano also offers spaghetti, an Italian sausage sandwich and a “ Came Reano’’ which is steak sauteed in Burgundy wine and served with fettucini.

For dessert, there is an o u tstand ing hom em ade cheese cake (65 cents), baked daily by Mrs. Reano. For another 20 cents, you can have it topped with strawberries.

After dinner, you can’t beat the Godmother, a cof­fee drink made with amaret- to and topped with whipped cream.

While you’re eating — if you happen to be of my vin- tage — th e W u rlitz e r jukebox is loaded with good listening music from the 40’s. Like the songs of Glenn

stickler for fast service.The service was fast the

night I tried Mega’s, but then there weren’t many customers. I’m sure it’ll be just as fast when the place is full — and that should hap­pen when people know it’s there and have tasted the food.

The Mega serves both lunch and dinner from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., opening an hour earlier and closing an hour later every day but Sun­day.

‘Bunker' Receives AwardBy Father Thomas Donlan, O.P.

ROME (1\C) — The real Archie Bunker. Carroll O'Connor of TV’s “ All in the P’amily,” received the St. Genesius award in Santa Susanna church here July 21. The award is presented periodically to outstanding actors by members of Rome’s American Catholic parish.

O’Connor, minus the aggressive sneer that has made America laugh for five years, thanked “the members of my original home parish which I first joined in 1961, for this highly valued honor and sign of esteem

More than 200 parishioners, including U.S, Ambas­sador to Italy John A. Volpe and his wife, listened to an un-Bunker-like speech in which O’Connor reminisced about arriving in Rome in 1%1 to play the role of Cassius in “Antony and Cleopatra,”

“At that time,” he said, “I was a careless Catholic, almost a drop-out. But my wife, Nancy, was drawn to the Church. She took instructions here from the Paulists at Santa Susanna and was baptized the year we came over. She came into the Church, and I came back to it.”

Santa Susanna contains a chapel which holds the relics of St. Genesius, a second-century Roman actor who was slain for defending the faith in one of his plays. The

award was begun nearly 10 years ago when it was first given to Dominican Father Gilbert Hartke, founder and now director emeritus of Catholic University’s depart­ment of speech and drama.

Helen Hayes is also among those who have received the award.

The program started with a sound and light presenta­tion on the life of St. Genesius, written by James O’Neill, former head of NC News Service’s Rome bureau. During a reception afterwards, O’Connor told NC that the high point of his visit “was an audience with Pope Paul VI. My wife. Nancy, and our son, Hugh, were there, and we told him that we had volunteered our services to head of UNICEF, the UN organization to help children, especially in developing countries.

“The Pope told us that his brother had once worked for UNICEF, and then he went on to say that UNICEF is truly a work of Christ. It reaches out to the poor, sick and hungry children of the world, and, he told us. Our Lord Jesus Christ lives in them.”

O’Connor said he will work on raising money for UNICEF projects. “We think it is one way to use the fame that has come over these past five years,’’ he said.

All five of the Coleman County cowboys hail from Texas. Red Steagall, the main headliner, was born in Gainesville, Texas and is now living in Lebanon, Tennes­see. His songs and his performances reflect his love of the land.

Red rode in more than 60 rodeos before turning full­time to music and resting his sore muscles. He has per­formed in the best ‘country’ places, all over the nation; his current bell-ringer being the song “ Finer Things in Life” recorded by Capitol.

Further information can be obtained by calling David Strasburger’s office at 659-2120 ext. 100.

deficiency in deciduous plants is the yellowing of leaves in areas between the veins, while the veins re­main green. In advance stages, the edge of the leaf and the entire leaf turns brown and the plant dies.

In conifers, needles turn lemon-yellow; then, if the deficiency is severe, they turn brown and die. In the early stages the needles re­main pliable as contrasted to stiff, dry needles the result of desiccation or drying out.

In lawn grasses, the leaf blades fade to a lemon- green, then yellow. Growth otherwise may appear nor­mal in a lawn that has ' received adequate amounts

of nitrogen. Some of the more susceptible plants are silver or soft maple, red oak, lodge pole pine, flowering quince, honeysuckle and Froebel spirea.

P robab ly the e a s ie s t method of correction is to provide available iron. Li­quid Iron or Iron Sulfate may work.

HINTS FOR THE VEGETABLE GARDENER

Dropping of blossoms or vegetables during this time of the year may be caused by over-watering or too much nitrogen. This occurs on p la n ts l ik e p e p p e rs , tomatoes and cucumbers. Corn may be infested with the corn earworm. They can

be controlled by Sevin, if caught before entering the ear. Strawberries that have leaves turning brown and the stems black, may have root rot.

To check, cut the main stem in half — if red, it has root rot. Plants may be treated with Dithane 2-78 or Zineb. Tomatoes may be in­fected with blight which oc­curs on stems and leaves and fruit. Infected stems develop dark brown cankers that may girdle plants at the soil line. Leaves show small ir­regular dark brown spots. The tissues surrounding these spots usually turn yel­low. Control by using Zineb. i

Bicycle Testing Lane AvaiiabieA new electronic bicycle

tes tin g d ev ice is now available for free loan to organizations sponsoring bicycle safety projects. The B icycle T e s t Lane is available through the Rocky Mountain AAA Auto Club, and is ideal for bicycle rodeos and similar events. It measures both the bicycle’s condition and the operator’s ability to make emergency stops.

The AAA Bike Test Lane, the only such device in Colorado, checks for wheel wobble and braking ef­ficiency, and also times the rider’s brake reaction time in hundredths of a second.

The Bike Test Lane was specially designed for AAA Clubs to encourage bicycle safety, becoming increasing­

ly important as more ana more bike riders mix with motor vehicle traffic. It is estimated that there are now a half million bicycle riders in the metropolitan Denver area, 64% of whom are adults.

“The whole town of Estes Park was awake all that night, concerned about the flood and heavy rains and taking part in the relief work. Emergency vehicles were on the go constantly,” Father Arbanas said.

“ Only tourists were at Mass Sunday morning as all the parishioners had been called on by the disaster committee of the area to take part in the relief work,” Father Arbanas pointed out.

F a ther Daniel Bohte, Estes Park pastor, as part of the community effort took personal action in helping to give assis tance to the homeless and those requir­ing help, Father Arbanas said. Emergency centers and the h o sp ita l were m o b ilized w ith r e l ie f workers and volunteers.

For a while there was great concern that the dam at the bottom of Lake Estes might not be able to stand the pressure of the heavy

rains and a close watch was kept on the dam for if the dam went out new damage would be caused to the havoc already wrought, but the dam survived the test. Father Arbanas said.

“ It is too early to assess the total damage that was caused by the rains and the flood,” Father Arbanas said.

Even though the Church property in Estes Park es­caped damage, the homes of many parishioners in the up- p e r p a r t of th e Big Thompson Canyon were either badly damaged or destroyed. The g reatest damage was caused between Drake and Loveland.

The disaster in the Big Thompson also started an im m e d ia te exodus by tourists from Estes Park, Father Arbanas said.

The trip to Denver Mon­day morning, Aug. 2, was a “bumper - to - bumper cara­van through the fog and drizzle,” Father Arbanas said.

T he ro u te o u t w as Highway 7 past Camp St. Malo to Raymond, where the cars had to turn off and take the Peak-to-Peak Highway through Ward and Nederland down Boulder Canyon to Boulder. There the travelers turned in the various direc­tions to reach safe ground at home or at some other destination.

“ Meanwhile the rain clouds hung over the Estes Park area and the Big T hom pson h a m p e r in g rescue work.

“The whole weekend was a nightmare,” said Father A rbanas as he reached safety in Denver.

Movie Scene

Religious Rip-offBy Patrick M. Arnold, S. J.

According to a series of eyewitness observers there lies at some 14,000 ft. altitude on Mt. Ararat in Turkey various aged wooden planks and probably some kind of structure from which they come.

A Colorado backpacker would be unimpressed by these reports except that they come from the mountain traditionally associated with the story of Noah and the Ark (Genesis 6-9).

One’s curiosity is naturally aroused, but until an ob­jective research team is mounted to investigate the reports, we must make do with question marks sur­rounding the paucity of evidence. (My own theory, as in­substantial as anything suggested to date, sees here the remains of an ancient cultic building marking the memory of the legendary Noah, and perhaps used as an object of local pilgrimage.) Yet some choose to believe it is the actual Ark of Noah, and have produced a movie to “prove” it.

I attended “In Search of Noah’s Ark” in the hopes of seeing a responsible documentary discussing the evidence in favor of the Ark theory (while resigning myself to the probability the movie might get a little car­ried away in the imagination department.)

I left the movie with the kind of anger and frustration I used to feel during Richard Nixon’s Watergate speeches.

The stated purpose of the movie is to prove the “historicity” of the Bible, using the Noah story as a kind of test case. But the route proving that the pieces of wood in question are from the Ark is so strewn with half-truths, misinterpreted data, misleading interviews, credulous speculation and outright lies that I could neither begin to deal with them here in the space available nor wish to honor them with responsible criticism.

I would find the whole “scientific”-ruse laughable ex­cept that the serious implications for the faith of many people rule that out. Hence, the frustration of confronting this elaborate deception in its own foolish terms.

But what we have here is not simply another movie to indulge our human need for mystery by a fantasization of the facts (which profited the producers of Chariot of the Gods, The Bermuda Triangle, The Passover Plot, etc. so well) but an exploitation at the deeper religious level as well.

What could be more appealing than this new method of proving the existence of God by archaeology rather

than philosophy?Perhaps it would not be harmful if such a thing could

be done, but unfortunately the archaeological record provides great problems for the biblical writings as well as some impressive corroboration of it.

I suppose herein lies the danger of this kind of movie and the source of my anger at it: the naive belief in religiously manipulated facts can lead only to an unreal separation from the modern world or cynicism when the truth is eventually faced.

It is a cruel and foolish hoax which would build our relationship with God on the quicksands of such delusions.

For while the movie clothes itself in pious expres­sions of faith, it is really the product of nagging insecurity and the prideful refusal to accept the Biblical writers’ sharing of their experience of God on any terms except our Twentieth Century standards of historiography.

In short, “ In Search of Noah’s Ark” is a religious rip- off. Save your money, buy a Jerusalem or New American Bible, and read the real thing.

TV Can Dissolve Walls of Ignorance & FearBy James Breig

A year ago I wrote about the Humanitas Prize, an award given for television programs which “most fully communicate those values which enrich the human per­son” (to quote the official version).

The prize, funded by Lilly Endowment, is $25,000 for a program more than an hour long, $15,000 for 60 minutes, and $10,000 for a half hour show. The money goes to the writers of the programs.

As you may remember from last year, the prize came about through discussions involving several creative peo­ple, including Rev. Elwood Kieser, CSP, the priest who

Mike Farrell as B.J. Hunnicutt was one of the cast members of M*A*S*H in an episode called “The Inter­view” which won a $10,000 prize recently. Read about the award in Tuned In this week.

produces Insight. He is on the prize committee, along with such people as Cicely Tyson, Ray Bradbury (the science fiction writer), Arthur Hiller (the director), Helen Hayes, and Rev. Eugene Carson Blake.

In announcing the prizes for this past season. Father Kieser made some comments about the prize and its pur­pose, which I would like to share for what he says about television and its challenge to us;

“When properly used, (TV) is, after the human family, in our opinion, the most powerful humanizing instrument ever known to man. We . . . are convinced that television can reveal to us, its viewers, much of what it means to be human. It can challenge us to use our freedom to grow, develop and become more fully human. It can illumine the options we face. And most importantly of all, by bringing into our living rooms human beings who are very different from ourselves in culture, race, lifestyle, political loyalties and religious beliefs, it can dissolve the walls of ignorance and fear that separate us from one another. ..

Television Notes“We did not know (when we started) whether it was

realistic in a medium that is essentially entertainment and often crassly commercial to hope to do a humanizing job.

“That was two years ago . . . What has happened in the interim has done much to reinforce our hopes .. .

“I see surfacing all over the country, with local com­munity groups, in the broadcast community and also in the entertainment community here in Hollywood, a new appreciation of human values, a new recognition of televi­sion’s power to affirm or deny them, a new awareness that in television programming, enriching people is more important than selling things.”

Father Kieser explained that writers were chosen as the winners, rather than producers or directors, because ideas originate with them and writing, a lonely job that often breeds discouragement, needs to be motivated.

The criteria used to judge the scripts, he continued, were such questions as these: What is the story saying about the meaning of life? Is it challenging its viewers? Does it affirm the dignity of the human person? Is the overall impact of the story conducive to an understanding and love for other people?

And so they came up with the winners:30 minutes — Larry Gelbart for “The Interview,” an

episode of M*A*S*H (perhaps remembered for its use of black-and-white film), which the citation called “a wry and caustic indictment of war, the absurdities and devastation it inflicts on people.”

60 minutes — Jay Presson Allen for the pilot script for

“Family,” which became a mini-series and will be back in the Fall. The citation called it “a vivid portrayal of the need for openness, candor and forgiveness in modern family living.”

90 minutes — Jeanne and James Houston and John Korty for “Farewell to Manzanar,” about the treatment of Japanese-Americans during World War II, “a moving tribute to the strength of the family and the courage of the human spirit. ”

Agree or disagree? I did not see ‘Family,” but can sup­port the other two awards. If they come around again, watch them with different eyes and judge them yourselves. Further than that, watch all television with wise eyes that tell you if what you are seeing is supportive of the Humanitas Prize values or against them. It is a good way to determine the worth of what you are seeing.

Olympic Contestants join hands at Mass at Olympic Village.

A .M . Church - P.M. DiscoMONTREAL (NC) — In the evening, the Inter­

national Center near the Olympic’s Games main stadium here throbbed to the upbeat of a discotheque and served as a movie theater or a social center for athletes at loose ends.

But each morning the setting was transformed into a church, mosque, synagogue or temple.

Brevity and informality characterized the morning religious services, with local heads of congregations of­ficiating at the services — Christian, Jewish, Moslem or Buddhist. Sometimes two or three languages were used in the same ceremony.

The Rev. Anthony Mancini, of Montreal, a leader of the ecumenical committee which organized the Olympic pastoral services, said the religious aspect of any event on the scale of the Olympics is essential to the emotional and mental stability of a competitor.

But the religious services were only part of the func­tion performed by local pastors, according to Peter Pros­ser, team captain of pastoral services. He said clergymen were available to assist athletes with personal problems that may come up.

“Many of the competitors have come a long way from home. They can become lonely and homesick. Some take defeats very hard and they may feel they let down their country. They can become very discouraged, and this is where we can help,” said Prosser.

Pastors were assisted by some 40 men and women volunteers.

Another religious aspect of the Games which continue through Aug. 1, was the presence of Radio Vatican.

Two Montreal priests, Fathers Barry Jones and Andre Lamoureux, were named representatives of Radio Vatican. They were fully accredited to the Games.

Ek)th priests conducted daily interviews with athletes. Games officials and visitors from the many countries and sent the tapes to Rome through the apostolic nuncio at Ot­tawa.

The presence of Radio Vatican at the Olympics was made at the initiative of Bishop Leonard J. Crowley, aux­iliary of Montreal during a recent visit to Rome.

The main purpose for having representatives of Radio Vatican at the Games was to underline the spiritual aspects of man which are developed and experienced through participation in sports, said Father Jones.

Clement Zecha‘Went About Doing Good’

r est in p e a c e■ ■ _ . . , on m u m :

“His heart was too big, too generous, too full of love for his mortal body,” Father Robert Freudenstein said of Clement J. Zecha, a former e d ito r of the D enver Catholic Register, at his F'uneral Mass.

Father Freudenstein, pastor at St. Plus X parish, Aurora, a close friend of Zecha’s, was the principal celebrant at the Mass, held the evening of July 28 in St. Mary’s Church, Colorado Springs.

Father Freudenstein said that Zecha’s life could be summed up in a phrase from the Acts of the Apostles: "He went about doing good.”

A delegation from the

Denver Press Club — in ad­dition to Zecha's family and relatives — were among the 600 persons at the Mass.

Fourteen p rie s ts , in­cluding Benedictine Abbot Bonaventure Bandi of Holy Cross Abbey, Canon City, were concelebrants.

A choir of nuns from the Benedictine Benet Hill Benedictine Priory sang at the Mass. A sister of Zecha’s, Sister Helen Zecha, is a member of the priory.

He is survived also by his parents Mr. and Mrs. Cle­ment C. Zecha; another sister, Mrs. Frances Kleine, and two brothers, Thomas and Robert.

A memoral service and Mass was scheduled for Holy

Ghost church, Denver, on July 30.

A medley of show tunes was played prior to the ser­vice because of Zecha’s in­volvement in show business. He handled public relations for the Central City Opera as well as dinner theaters.

Zecha, 52, a native of Colorado Springs, had been living in Aurora. He died July 25 following a heart attack.

He was ed ito r of the Register from 1964 to 1967, and before that had held various posts in the Register Newspaper System.

Since 1969 he had handled public relations for various organizations in the Denver
