All Saints, anyone? By Hilda Young Last Halloween, as a veteran of the CCD front lines, I thought it would be great if my kids dressed as saints. "Why don't you design costumes of your favor- ite saint?" I suggested the afternoon of Oct. 31 as four children searched through a ragbag, a laundry hamper, the toolshed and the linen closet for costume materials. "I did that football player thing last year," re- plied Johnny, cutting holes in a paper bag. "Not the New Orleans Saints - church saint," I said. "When did they come up with a team?" he asked. "You could tum that bag into a monk's hat and be St. Francis of Assisi," I suggested cleverly. "Isn't he the one who's always carrying a sheep around on his shoulder?" he asked as he rummaged through a kitchen drawer. "Have you seen the grease pencil?" "Your sister could be St. Clare, the saint who cut off all her hair so she wouldn't have to be married and so she could follow St. Francis." "Who gets to cut her hair?" I ignored him. "Maybe you could be your name- sake, St. John the Baptist," I went on. "The guy with the wild hair who lived on bugs? That does have costuming potential. Actually, I think sis would be a natural," he laughed. "Hey, goblin-breath," came a voice from the basement. "I heard that. How'd you like. to go as St. Joan of Arc and we'll all bum you at the stake?" "Come on up here and I'll make you into St. Elsewhere," he called down' the steps.

themoorin~ TV Addiction
Anyone attempting to put together a parish religious education program knows that a prime enemy is the large screen commonly found in the center of the family liying room I
The TV set has become todays family shrine It is cared for checked on and treated with respec~ bordering on religious devotion As its offerings grow in number land variety it wins over many who once ignored it as a w~ste of time The advent of cable has transformed the hpme TV set into a media buffet serving sometbing for everyshyone from the esthete to the pervert i
What we have now is only a glimpse of what ithe future holds It will be only a few years before satepite down links bring hundreds of channels into our homes
New doors new ~orlds will open to families ~ut ~ith almost unlimited selections at hand will come unlimited problems What currently seems horrendous is only a small inkling of the future To be sure there are and will ~e many wonderful programs but there will also be eyen
more detrimental viewing opportunities than at presenf Yet these choices are not the real problem The real
heart of the matter is the television itself [ First and foremost it turns the viewer into a passive
receiver This would be true even if the air waves ~ere full of the Gospel message The fact ismiddot that one can Ido very little else while entrapped by the boob tube Teleshyvision does not require activityit demands passivity liAS one writer put it TV turns all its viewers into sJ1ut-ins
Look what it does to children It is so easy to keep the kids quiet and out of our hair by plugging them ihto the TV But it keeps them passive and inactive Inst~ad of learning the important lessons that only personal in~er- actions can teach they are as removed from othfrs whep they sit in front of middotthe television as if there were no 6ne else in the room I
TV treats adults in the same way It destroys family communication restricting all conversation I
Considering what is around the television cornerl it would be weil to take immediate corrective measutes against the serious problems video can bring a househ~ld
For starters it would be well to remove the TV set from the center stage of family life Its location in a home tells one much as to where that homes heart is Expetts indeed tell us to get it away from the main traffic p~t-terns of a house I
Dont build a living room Or den around a TV Dont turn it on when company is present _ j
The problem of monitoring it is already never endshying And soon families will have to make choices froml a smorgasbord containing items making our present X-rated offerings seem like the Muppet Show But vvhat we a1l6w
in our homes is what we allow in our hearts I As we journey into days where television will seek lto
encroach even more than now upon our leisure time oe must try to relegate it to its proper place in our lives The more people dwelt in their separate worlds of TV fantasy the less they will care and share ~ith one ahCther I

Inclusive Language
Ey Father Kevin J Harringtol
TIre National Council of Churches recently unveiled an attempt to revise Bible passages to eliminate references to God as male
Changes include substitution of Child for Son with reference to Christ Father and Mother fol Father alone with reference to God and Sovereignty for Lord The contention is that male-dominated imagery perpetshyuates unhealthy -continuation of the notion of patriarchal domin~ allee
Those w~o dismiss these chlnges as frivolous are unaware I
of the power of language From my perspective the changes could have a deleterious effect upon the way future generations inshyherit the cherished religious beshyliefs of their predecessors
While such radical adaptation admits for a temporary releshyVaclce it seems of dubious value Biblical language as we have recl~ived it served our ancestors well during previous periods of vast change The changes presshyently proposed are not only jarshyring in their unfamiliarity but senre little purpose in enriching middotthe deposit of faith as it has been transmitted throughout hisshytory
A handful of feminists have proved that theycan change the language of the Bible through power politics Historians will not look upon publication of their boole An Inclusive Language Lectionary as a step in the right direction but as a mutashytion favorably received by few
While it may be true that God
) shy
chose to become a man because he chose to ihcarnate into Ii pashytriarchal socity and that Jesus referred to God as Father beshycause he chose not to offend his contemporaries cultural biases if I were a betting man I would wager that it is the advocates of reform who are afraid to offend the biases of the feminists -
Perhaps the debate would be unnecessary if we hetter undershystood the nature of a metaphor Webster defines a -p1etaphor as Ii figure of speech in which a word or phrase literally denoting one kind of object or idea is used in place of another to suggest a likeness or analogy between them
A feminist who has a hard time accepting the maleness of Jesus is reflecting her own limited but negative impression of males Likewise a feminist who balks at accepting the fatherhood of God is reflect~ng
her own limited and negative impression of fathers
In Roman Catholic tradition strong respect ~ for certain quali~
ties associated with the feminshyine is encompassed in the devoshytion of the faithful to the Blessshyed Mother Grace always buiJds upon nature Positive male qualishyties are evidenced in the life of
Jesus as are positive female qualities in the life of Mary It is wrong to assume that these qualities are totally a function of nurture and not of nature -By acceding to the requests of a l~andful of feminists with regard to the langlage of theology we legitimate a fallacy
s the age-old controversy of
heredity versus environment nature versus nurture continues lets leave theological language
alone Over-eagerness for change is immature We must not misshytake for God that which only points to God The pointer is no more God than a finger that points at the moon is the moon We find it easy to mistake the finger for the moon the pointer for the referent

said head bowed on hands eyes refusing to meet those of the adults gathered round to help him Ive never been any good he added after a pause I cant get good grades I cant run good so I cant make a team and look at qty face He raised his head and we dutifully viewshyed mild adolescent zits sprinkled here and there
Ill call him Tony age 15 a classic example of what we call a shame-based personality He was being counselled for drug experimentation and inability to communicate with his family
His family - thats another story It matched the billboard image of the good family of past definition - two parents upshywardly mobile intensely intershyested in rearing successful chilshydren and strong authoritarian Christians We had met with them end found them to be caring parents but their style of parenting hearkened back to the sad method of shaming and hushymiliating their children who didnt perform well in family school or sports
They couldnt accept Tonys natural limitations in school and athletics and instead under the guise of support pressured him to achieve the impossible If they pushed enough they were sure he would find the brains to be an A student and the muscles to make the team

More sadly they failed to recognize his natural gifts which would have given him the selfshyesteem he was so tragically lackshying if they had been acknowshyledged and valued Tony had wonderful gifts He got along well with everyone (except his parents) He preferred cooperashytion to competition so he didnt play to win or try to outshine classmates He stepped in whenshyever someone bullied a weaker one He was a sensitive introsshypective young man with absoshylutely no self-worth - a prime candidate for drug abuse
Nine out of 10 young drug users have shame-based personshyalities Like Tony they view themselves as unworthy in a society that judges individuals by their achievement rather than their character The remaining one out of 10 has good selfshyesteem and views his or her drug use as a behavior whichmiddot needs correcting not evidence of provshying unworthiness
Tony needed help but his famshyily needed it first We had to work with his parents teaching them to help Tony to like himshyself and that was difficult beshycause while they loved him they werent proud of him He was an embarrassment to them beshycause he got C-minuses and didnt make any teams

on He glimpsed little value in the strengths I listed above He says only class rank awards and trophies are criteria
I meet Tonys parents everyshywhere They want to know how to recognize and value special gifts in children that werent valued when they were children I begin by listing gifts to look for and encouraging them to praise their children for these is your child a peacemaker Does he care about others Is he pleasant to be around Is he good at fiXing things Does he have a humor that defuses famshyily tension Does he enjoy solishytude Does he have a strong sense of fairness Does he help others knowing he wont get any credit for it Does he have a good memory filling in details the family has forgotten Is he a good listener even if he doesnt want to talk or argue
Im happy to report that Tonys parents are starting to affirm these qualities and are having limited success They realize they were trying to change him into something he isnt and theyre seeing an improved self-accepshytance as a worthwhile person

We are spiritual Semites
Rabbi Marc Tanenbaum of the American Jewish Committee tells a good story about a pope and a rabbi The pope in the story is John XXIII The rabbis name escapes me In any event as Rabbi Tanenbaum relates it the pope and the rabbi had just concluded a discussion of matters of mutual interest and were moving from a sitting room into an adjoining room for lunch when an amiable difference of opinion arose beshytween them as to who should precede whom through the doorshyway
You first rabbi the pope inshysisted genially
Oh no after you Your Holishyness the rabbi replied deferenshytially
This stand-off continued with elaborate bowing and gesturing Finally Pope John took the rabbi firmly by the arm gently pushed him through the doorshyway first and proclaimed with affable finality The Old Testashyment before the New Testashymentl
It was a wonderful remark on several levels It was witty it was wise it was welcoming The Old Testament before the New Testament We are all spiritual Semites Christianity descended from Judaism Jesus was a Jew
One day a while ago I was riding the bus to work An acshyquaintance who never misses Sunday Mass sat beside me We were reading our newspapers He happened upon an item about an upcoming TV program devoted to the Holocaust Look at this he said sneering Just what we need - another proshygram about the Holocaust
-I said nothing because I hate
scenes but the remark infuriated me I suppose I have heard 100 similar snide remarks out of the mouths of Catholics over the years My impression is that antiSemitism is widespread if not quite epidemic among Cathshyolics
Jesus was a devout Jew and yet Catholics are notorious for making disparaging remarks about Jews Why in the name of God would Catholics abuse Jews
No good reason Bigotry is unshyreasonable Anti-Semitism was entrenched in the Church for so long that official statements in recent decades disavowing it have failed to eliminate it Since the third century certain soshycalled churchmen have insisted on blaming Jews for the crucishyfixion Of Jesus There is a mindshyless inane perverse aspect to this After all Jesus was a Jew who lived among Jews His friends and his enemies were Jews To blame his crucifixion on Jews is about as rational as blaming the assassinations of Presidents Lincoln and Kennedy

on Americans It is just plain senseless
And yet it persisted for censhyturies St John Chrysostom who was declared patron of preachers by Pope Pius X in 1909 was a virulent anti-Semite He said in a sermon Brothel and theater the synagogue is also a cave of pirates and lair of wild beasts This fifth-century sermon conshytinues with the outpouring of vile anti-Semitism too terrible to repeat Reading his hateful reshymarks I wonder -that Chrysoshytom survived the scrutiny of saint-makers TIiey should have kept Christopher and canned Chrysostom
The SeCOnd Vatican Council in a document intended to make amends to Jews exonerated them from being guilty of the crucishyfixion of Jesus and deplored antishySemitism in any form This gesshyture was undoubtedly seen by Jews as awfully late in coming And the message has failed to filter down to the masses
Catholic anti-Semites should be repudiated Any Catholic who looks down on Jews is a halfwit The anonymous poet put it well
How odd of God to choose the Jews
But not so odd as those who choose
A Jewish God but scorn the Jews

note speaker Susim Muto execushytive director of the institute of Formative Spirituality at Dushyquesne University Pittsburgh suggested ways to transform the hopelessness of the world into a world of hope
She specified waiting praying and coping with the harshness of reality as conditions for carryshy
ing the vision of hope into the world and singled out three
women as signs of hope in themselves even though they have lived in conditions that could seem hopeless
The models were St Teresa of Avila Mother Teresa of Calshycutta and Mary With Mary we empty ourselves to be full of hope and become witnesses to the world said Ms Muto And we can pray with St Teresa of Avila whoever possesses God wants nothing - God alone sufshyfices

The directive appears to go against the practice in some US seminaries Yhich include nuns or other non-priests among spiritual directors available to seminarians It also appears to go against recommendations made four years ago by a task force of the National Federation of Spiritual Directors which favored a role for women in the

Seminary officials contacted about the letter stressed that it should be interpreted in its own context and in that of what American seminaries are actshyually doing
From their comments several themes emerged
- If any significant direct conflict between Vatican thinkshying and US practice is involved it appears to concern use if nonshypriests as spiritual directors of seminarians
- A second area of possible conflict could be the question of non-priests as seminary proshyfessors but it is not clear that When you rent a Home-Heating Burner from the Fall River there is a real conflict there

raised six children in the Cathshyolic Church and all were ecRumiddot cated in the Catholic school system Now that they are on their own all but one have joined or attend different deshynominations
Some of the children think smoking drinking and gambling are sinful and shun the ones who do these things although they do not show real animosity The family has diifted apart and ~he only time they see each other is when we invite them all over alt the same time _
My one son il constantly pressuring his father and me to attend IDs church We do not want to go but do not know how to tell him without creating hard feelings How do we handle this - Kentucky
Apparently every one of your children has a hunger for a spiritual me Like you I do not know wl)y they have sought difshyferent Christian communities to fulfill this need However they are adults now making their middotown adult choices And like the rest of us their spiritual journey is not complete
While you are not happy with their choices recognize that they lire not your doing or your fault You might also reflect that none )f them are indifferent to a piritual life
Drifting apart is typical of grown-up children Schooling jobs personal iJ1~erests marrishyage alld modern mobility lead ehildren away both physically nnd in spirit Parents remain the center that draws them back tomiddot gether You are already doing this by holding all-family gathershyings
Another way to keep adult (hildren in touch with each other is through letters Write Each child weekly regardless of whether the child responds to you If you cannot write to each individually WritE and distribute a family newsletter Photocopyshying machines are a boon to famishy
lies such as yours In your letter
include not only your own and your husbands news but also the doings of each grown child
Your son has joined another church He has found something that is important to him and he is eager to share it with you How wonderful that he takes his spiritual life so seriously and that he so loves and values the response of his parents that he wants you to come I do not know how you can resist such an important invitation
Christians share a belief in the teachings of Jesus and a conshyviction about the importance of family Churches are meant to enhance fa~ilies not to divide them

Long struggle related
By Anne Buckley
NEW YORK (NC) - For 10 years Dr Kevin Cahill did everyshything possible to keep his pashytient the late Cardinal Terence Cooke of New York functioning so that he could use every day to the maximum to serve the Lord CARDINAL COOKE
Those efforts continued until Cardinal Cookes death Oct 6 of cardinals bone marrow and red leukemia Cahill told Catholic and white blood cell system New York archdiocesan news- Cahill said paper revealing for the first time Thus came a period the physishythat during the last few months cian described as careful medishythe cardinal received chemoshy cal management including therapy in an effort to prolong blood transfusions at least once his life a month in the cardinals home
Careful to preserve his pashy and a constant watch for inshytients privacy Cahill issued only fections one statement before the carshy Hed be off to Korea after dinals death on his condition midnight Mass and everyone and treatment would say how rosy he looked
Published reports that Cardinal Sure he looked rosy hed just Cooke rejected chemotherapy been transfused the doctor prompted Cahills comments said
The cardinal received an ap- Then a change occurred ~in propriate program of chemo- earl~ August a unn~ry tract IDshy~herapy during the last few months in a continuing effort to prolong the productive life of a man who lived every minute of life CahiU said It was adshyministered in his home not only to insure his dignity and privacy for prayer but also to avoid inshyfections towhich he might have been exposed in a hospital
Cahill is convinced that the home treatment prolonged the cardinals life
The physician said that Carshydina Cooke meant what he said about the value of life even when accompanied by suffering
Ten years of my care were distilled in the last two months Cahill said saying Cardinal Cooke demonstrated true acshyceptance of suffering as a joyshyful part of life
The doctor and patient planshyned Cardinal Cookes treatment together During the more than 10 years when I cared for him he was the most cooperative pashytient always wanting the best medical advice and following whatever I asked him to do Cahill said It was always in complete and utter privacy so that illness would not take censhyter stage in the cardinals life Cahill said
The cardinal was hospitalized for cancer only twice some- 20 years ago when he had surgery for removal of tissue from his neck and in 1975 for removal of a lymphoma lesion from his mouth The rest of his treatment was administered in his home or Cahills office early in the mornshying or after regular patient hours
From 1975-79 there was intense chemotherapy daily medication and weekly injections accomshypanied ~y aU the side effects such as nausea and vomiting Cahill said
The chemotherapy killed the lymphoma but damaged the
fectlon and so~ethIDg el~e shyacute myeloblastic leukemia
The phase of 18-hour work days was over Cahill said Now the cardinal wanted to save his energy for prayer
At home the cardinal received everything that medicine could offer the doctor said Transshyfusions chemotherapy and other treatment continued
Painkillers were administered sparingly at the cardinals reshyquest because of the life he wanted Cahill said He wanted to stay prayerful and producshytive
Cahill said the cardinals apshyproach to terminal illness was
active acceptance of medical help in order to continue proshyductivity He said the cardinal wanted to give an example of courage to others who have to suffer to accept the full treatshyment available to them
He saw death as an inevitable part of life Not as something to be feared and not as something to be accepted passively as a dog rolling over Cahill said His death was absolutely total
Letters to Pope In other news of the late carshy
dinal the Vatican published on Oct 21 an unedited exchange of letters between him and Pope John Paul II in which the carshydinal implicitly offered his resigshynation as archbishop of New York because of his illness
The pope sidestepped the resigshynation offer thanked the carshydinal for his pastoral labors and promised his prayers during the cardinals illness
The cardinals offer was conshytained in an Aug 25 letter He said that due to the limitations caused by his illness he wanted to turn over the pastoral care of the archdiocese and of the Military Ordinate which he also headed to my collaborators with my encouragement
On the following day Aug 26 the Archdiocese of New York held a press conference to anshynounce that the 62-year-old carshydinal was suffering from acut~
leukemia was being cared for at home and couId die within a matter of months
The popes response dated Sept I told Cardinal Cooke of the spiritual closenesswhich he felt to the ~ardinal during his illness and thanked him for your fidelity to the wdrd of God for all your pastoral labors performed in love and suffering as well as for your personal friendship
I am sure middotthat your brothers and sisters and fellow-citizens in America will never forget all your efforts on behalf of life the right to life everyones right to life wrote the pope
Kissinger panel Continued from page one
of four American churchwomen was approved by the Senate Oct 20
The resolution sponsored by Sen Patrick J Leahy (D-Vt) does not threaten an end to US military aid But it urges appointshyment of the special prosecutor and asks that a trial in the case begin by this Dec 2 the third anniversary of the churchshywomens deaths
The measure passed by voice vote after one of its supporters Sen Frank R Lautenberg )shyNJ) said the current ambassashydor to El Salvador Thomas R Pickering supports appointment of the special prosecutor
Leahy said evidence in the case has been suppressed negshylected lost or destroyed
His resolution says vigorous prosecution of the case would promote criminal justice throughshyout El Salvador and encourage stronger pursuit of other murder cases including investigation into the death of Archbishop

Attleboro church is 100 years old bull
For 100 years the faith has been lived in this parish said Bishop Daniel A Cronin in adshydressing members of St John the Evangelist Chur9h Attleboro as they celebrated its centennial at a Mass on Sept 25
From the first pastor Father John bullOConnell to the present Father Smith he continued children have been baptized reshyceived their first communion and been confirmed here
This is the Holy Year of Reshydemption and the redemptive graces won for us by Christ have been enjoyed by the people of St Johns for the past century
The celebration was an ocshycasion for looking back over the parish history which began in 1883 when Father OConnell was assigned by Bishop Thomas Hendricken of the Providence diocese which then Included the Fall River area to found a- parshyish in Attleboro
The first Mass was said Jan 6 1883 in Union Hall Attleshyboro but Father John as he was universally known soon organshyized fundraising efforts and on Sept 17 1883 the cornerstone w~s laid on North Main Street

for a building 10 feet long and 50 feet wide seating 700 pershysons It was dedicated Sept 22 1885
Father OConnell served his parish for 27 years before his sudden death shocked the city He was followed by Fath~r
David F Sheedy who served from 1910 to 1930 During his pastorate the parishioners doubled in number despite creashytion of two new parishes from the origimll St Johns
Upon his death th~ Attleboro Sun editorialized He never sought popularity but taught by precept and example the tenets of an unfaltering faith His disshycourses were plain and to the point his eloquence unvarnishmiddot ed eternalmiddot truths During his pastorate the major portion of the cost of the present day beaushytiful Gothic church was put aside
Father James M Quinn Recshytor of St Marys Cathedral was the next pastor appointed by Bishop Cassidy on June 29 1930 As a tribute to the new pastor a silent drive was made in the parish and enough money was rais~d to complete the building of a new church
The rie~ building was well under way when the old church was utterly destroyed by fire For several months thereafter Mass was celebrated at a nearby theater un~il the new church was dedicated Nov 6 1932 It is believed to be one of the finshyest examples Of Gothic archishytecture in America
For almost 17 years Father Quinn spent his strength for his people untilmiddot in May 1949 he felt that he could work no onge~ resigned his pastorate and died May 30 of the following year
In July 1950 Father John J Shay became St Johns fourth pastor During his term Boy Scouts were organized and parshy
ish societies reorganized but his major accomplishment was the construlttion of a new parochial school which opened in Septemshyber 1955 thereafter adding grades until by 1960 it offered a full eight-grade program with Sisters of Mercy as faculty memshybers
January 1958 saw celebration of St Johns 75th anniversary highlighted by a pageant preshysented by the schoolchildren and by activities of the parishs many organizations
In 1961 Father Shay passed away after an 11-year pastorate He was followed by Father Thomas F Walsh fondly reshymembered for the many parish social activities he encouraged as well as for his devotion to his flock
His pastorate of 11 years was _f0110wed by the three-year asshy
signment of Father HenryT Munroe tho was invested as a monsignor in 1974 A special event of the time was the celeshybration of St Johns 90th annishyversary in 1973 marked by a festive Mass and a dinner atshytended by J)early every living priest who had served in the parshyish
In 1975 the present pastor Very Rev J()hn J Smith came to St Johns where he combines his pastoral duties with those of the office of diocesan director of vocations and episcopal vicar of the Attieboro-Taunton deanery of the diocese He and the p~esent associate
Father Marc Tremblay share a delight in landscaping and beaushytifying the parish grounds In recognition of this the church this year received the Attleboro Gardeners Civic Beautification Award
Thus it is that parish life now entering its second century goes forward in an atmosphere 9f both physical and spiritual beauty

America and the Bible have always had an interesting relashytionship and this year Ive met many young people who want to learn more about this special pookbecause of its impact on US history
Theyve read of how the Bible formed American life through its influence on the earliest setshytiers In fact the influence beshygan befor~thecolonists came to these shores Most of them were Puritans and the Scriptures have been described as the practical and theoretical fountainhead of that movement
Biblical imagery provided the new nation with figuresof speech which have fomed the national consciousriess The titlesof more than 200 no~els and plays writshyten in the uS during a recent 10-year period for instance were taken from the Bible

The pope said in his 25-minute talk We simply cannot accept the contemporary pursuit of exshyaggerated convenience and comshyfort for as Christians we must heed the vigorous exhortation of St Paul Do not conform yourshyselves to this age (Rom 122)
--~1bepope described the primary -responsibilities of married

total $75M WASHINGTON (NC) - The
Campaign for Human Developshyment the US bishops anti- poverty program has announced 1983 grants totlllling a record $75 mililon to 220 seif-help promiddot jects across the country
The grants announced in Washington earlier this month came after a CHD collection in US parishes last fall that exshyceeded $10 million for the first time according to Father Marvin MottetCHD exec~tive director
Launched by the bishops in 1970 CHD gives grants to selfshyhelp projects and sponsors edushycation programs on domestic middotpoverty Three-fourths of the anshynual CHD collection taken in most parishes of the United States on the Sunday before TIllinksgiving is used at the nashytionat level while one-fourth reo mains in the diocese for local CHD grants-
Father Mottet estimated that in its 13-year history the national CHD office has funded more than 2000 anti-poverty groups He said another 15000 grants have been given from the dioceshysan CHD share
The largest grant announced was $90000 to Texas Interfaith an ecumenical project in South Texas aimed at changing politishycal economic and social condishytions for the poor of the region
Father Mottet said the average 1983 grant was $35000

The number of couples sucshycessfully using methods of nashytural family planning is constantshyly growing said the pope but much more concerted effort is needed

themoorin~ TV Addiction
Anyone attempting to put together a parish religious education program knows that a prime enemy is the large screen commonly found in the center of the family liying room I
The TV set has become todays family shrine It is cared for checked on and treated with respec~ bordering on religious devotion As its offerings grow in number land variety it wins over many who once ignored it as a w~ste of time The advent of cable has transformed the hpme TV set into a media buffet serving sometbing for everyshyone from the esthete to the pervert i
What we have now is only a glimpse of what ithe future holds It will be only a few years before satepite down links bring hundreds of channels into our homes
New doors new ~orlds will open to families ~ut ~ith almost unlimited selections at hand will come unlimited problems What currently seems horrendous is only a small inkling of the future To be sure there are and will ~e many wonderful programs but there will also be eyen
more detrimental viewing opportunities than at presenf Yet these choices are not the real problem The real
heart of the matter is the television itself [ First and foremost it turns the viewer into a passive
receiver This would be true even if the air waves ~ere full of the Gospel message The fact ismiddot that one can Ido very little else while entrapped by the boob tube Teleshyvision does not require activityit demands passivity liAS one writer put it TV turns all its viewers into sJ1ut-ins
Look what it does to children It is so easy to keep the kids quiet and out of our hair by plugging them ihto the TV But it keeps them passive and inactive Inst~ad of learning the important lessons that only personal in~er- actions can teach they are as removed from othfrs whep they sit in front of middotthe television as if there were no 6ne else in the room I
TV treats adults in the same way It destroys family communication restricting all conversation I
Considering what is around the television cornerl it would be weil to take immediate corrective measutes against the serious problems video can bring a househ~ld
For starters it would be well to remove the TV set from the center stage of family life Its location in a home tells one much as to where that homes heart is Expetts indeed tell us to get it away from the main traffic p~t-terns of a house I
Dont build a living room Or den around a TV Dont turn it on when company is present _ j
The problem of monitoring it is already never endshying And soon families will have to make choices froml a smorgasbord containing items making our present X-rated offerings seem like the Muppet Show But vvhat we a1l6w
in our homes is what we allow in our hearts I As we journey into days where television will seek lto
encroach even more than now upon our leisure time oe must try to relegate it to its proper place in our lives The more people dwelt in their separate worlds of TV fantasy the less they will care and share ~ith one ahCther I
We must learn to master television We must not let it master us or our families I

Inclusive Language
Ey Father Kevin J Harringtol
TIre National Council of Churches recently unveiled an attempt to revise Bible passages to eliminate references to God as male
Changes include substitution of Child for Son with reference to Christ Father and Mother fol Father alone with reference to God and Sovereignty for Lord The contention is that male-dominated imagery perpetshyuates unhealthy -continuation of the notion of patriarchal domin~ allee
Those w~o dismiss these chlnges as frivolous are unaware I
of the power of language From my perspective the changes could have a deleterious effect upon the way future generations inshyherit the cherished religious beshyliefs of their predecessors
While such radical adaptation admits for a temporary releshyVaclce it seems of dubious value Biblical language as we have recl~ived it served our ancestors well during previous periods of vast change The changes presshyently proposed are not only jarshyring in their unfamiliarity but senre little purpose in enriching middotthe deposit of faith as it has been transmitted throughout hisshytory
A handful of feminists have proved that theycan change the language of the Bible through power politics Historians will not look upon publication of their boole An Inclusive Language Lectionary as a step in the right direction but as a mutashytion favorably received by few
While it may be true that God
) shy
chose to become a man because he chose to ihcarnate into Ii pashytriarchal socity and that Jesus referred to God as Father beshycause he chose not to offend his contemporaries cultural biases if I were a betting man I would wager that it is the advocates of reform who are afraid to offend the biases of the feminists -
Perhaps the debate would be unnecessary if we hetter undershystood the nature of a metaphor Webster defines a -p1etaphor as Ii figure of speech in which a word or phrase literally denoting one kind of object or idea is used in place of another to suggest a likeness or analogy between them
A feminist who has a hard time accepting the maleness of Jesus is reflecting her own limited but negative impression of males Likewise a feminist who balks at accepting the fatherhood of God is reflect~ng
her own limited and negative impression of fathers
In Roman Catholic tradition strong respect ~ for certain quali~
ties associated with the feminshyine is encompassed in the devoshytion of the faithful to the Blessshyed Mother Grace always buiJds upon nature Positive male qualishyties are evidenced in the life of
Jesus as are positive female qualities in the life of Mary It is wrong to assume that these qualities are totally a function of nurture and not of nature -By acceding to the requests of a l~andful of feminists with regard to the langlage of theology we legitimate a fallacy
s the age-old controversy of
heredity versus environment nature versus nurture continues lets leave theological language
alone Over-eagerness for change is immature We must not misshytake for God that which only points to God The pointer is no more God than a finger that points at the moon is the moon We find it easy to mistake the finger for the moon the pointer for the referent

Family Night A weekly at-home program for families
sponsored by the Dio~esan Office of Family Ministry
OPENING PRAYER Dear Father we praise and
thank you for the rainbow of beautiful people in our lives Help us to recognize the specialshyness of each one especially those in our own family Amen
ACTIVITY TIME People are like rainbows They
come in many colors and hues They come into our lives and while they are there they fill it with color and beauty
Young Family Have fun playing with bubbles
commercial or homemade Point out the rainbow of colors as the bubbles float through the air
Middle Years Family Rainbow Mobile Materials
crayons chalk construction paper string hanger Make a rainbow by cutting paper strips like arches Use different colors Each arch is suspended from a hanger by two pieces of string The lengths of string are a little longer each time Write the names of some of the new peoshyple teachers and friends you have met since the new school year began
Adult Family Read the biblical story of Joshy
Im just Im just no good he
said head bowed on hands eyes refusing to meet those of the adults gathered round to help him Ive never been any good he added after a pause I cant get good grades I cant run good so I cant make a team and look at qty face He raised his head and we dutifully viewshyed mild adolescent zits sprinkled here and there
Ill call him Tony age 15 a classic example of what we call a shame-based personality He was being counselled for drug experimentation and inability to communicate with his family
His family - thats another story It matched the billboard image of the good family of past definition - two parents upshywardly mobile intensely intershyested in rearing successful chilshydren and strong authoritarian Christians We had met with them end found them to be caring parents but their style of parenting hearkened back to the sad method of shaming and hushymiliating their children who didnt perform well in family school or sports
They couldnt accept Tonys natural limitations in school and athletics and instead under the guise of support pressured him to achieve the impossible If they pushed enough they were sure he would find the brains to be an A student and the muscles to make the team
seph and the Coat of Many Colors (Genesis Chapters 37shy47) Discuss the symbolism in the story and especially the family relationships fatherson brothersbrothers How do you deal with the dreams and aspirashytions of a family member How do you handle jealousies resentshyments achievements and honors that occur in family life
SNACK A jello desert in a rainbow of
colors would have to be preshypared ahead of time Rlinbow sherbet or neopolitan ice cream would also carry out the theme quite well
ENTERTAINMENT Divide the family into two
teams Give each team a feather and see which side can keep the feather in the air the longest time by blowing it
SHARING 1 Share something about the
middotrbullbullbullbull__middot -rbullbull7 __middotr-r no good
More sadly they failed to recognize his natural gifts which would have given him the selfshyesteem he was so tragically lackshying if they had been acknowshyledged and valued Tony had wonderful gifts He got along well with everyone (except his parents) He preferred cooperashytion to competition so he didnt play to win or try to outshine classmates He stepped in whenshyever someone bullied a weaker one He was a sensitive introsshypective young man with absoshylutely no self-worth - a prime candidate for drug abuse
Nine out of 10 young drug users have shame-based personshyalities Like Tony they view themselves as unworthy in a society that judges individuals by their achievement rather than their character The remaining one out of 10 has good selfshyesteem and views his or her drug use as a behavior whichmiddot needs correcting not evidence of provshying unworthiness
Tony needed help but his famshyily needed it first We had to work with his parents teaching them to help Tony to like himshyself and that was difficult beshycause while they loved him they werent proud of him He was an embarrassment to them beshycause he got C-minuses and didnt make any teams
His dads anguished question still rings in my ears How can you raise his self-esteem when he doesnt have ~nything to work
most beautiful person you know
2 Share a time when you were jealous of another family member
3 Share a time when you were really proud of someshyone in your family
CLOSING PRAYER -Join hands for spontaneous
prayer -Sugggested Prayer The
Prayer of St Francis Lord make me an instrument
of your peace Where there is hatred let me
sow love where there is injury pardon where there is doubt faith where there is despair hope where there is darkness light o Divine Master grant that I may not so much
seek to be consoled as to console
to be understood as to under- stand
to be loved as to love For it is in giving that we
receive it is in pardoning that we are
pardoned and it is in dying that we are
born to eternal life Amen

on He glimpsed little value in the strengths I listed above He says only class rank awards and trophies are criteria
I meet Tonys parents everyshywhere They want to know how to recognize and value special gifts in children that werent valued when they were children I begin by listing gifts to look for and encouraging them to praise their children for these is your child a peacemaker Does he care about others Is he pleasant to be around Is he good at fiXing things Does he have a humor that defuses famshyily tension Does he enjoy solishytude Does he have a strong sense of fairness Does he help others knowing he wont get any credit for it Does he have a good memory filling in details the family has forgotten Is he a good listener even if he doesnt want to talk or argue
Im happy to report that Tonys parents are starting to affirm these qualities and are having limited success They realize they were trying to change him into something he isnt and theyre seeing an improved self-accepshytance as a worthwhile person
THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Fri Ocl 28 1983
We are spiritual Semites
Rabbi Marc Tanenbaum of the American Jewish Committee tells a good story about a pope and a rabbi The pope in the story is John XXIII The rabbis name escapes me In any event as Rabbi Tanenbaum relates it the pope and the rabbi had just concluded a discussion of matters of mutual interest and were moving from a sitting room into an adjoining room for lunch when an amiable difference of opinion arose beshytween them as to who should precede whom through the doorshyway
You first rabbi the pope inshysisted genially
Oh no after you Your Holishyness the rabbi replied deferenshytially
This stand-off continued with elaborate bowing and gesturing Finally Pope John took the rabbi firmly by the arm gently pushed him through the doorshyway first and proclaimed with affable finality The Old Testashyment before the New Testashymentl
It was a wonderful remark on several levels It was witty it was wise it was welcoming The Old Testament before the New Testament We are all spiritual Semites Christianity descended from Judaism Jesus was a Jew
One day a while ago I was riding the bus to work An acshyquaintance who never misses Sunday Mass sat beside me We were reading our newspapers He happened upon an item about an upcoming TV program devoted to the Holocaust Look at this he said sneering Just what we need - another proshygram about the Holocaust
-I said nothing because I hate
scenes but the remark infuriated me I suppose I have heard 100 similar snide remarks out of the mouths of Catholics over the years My impression is that antiSemitism is widespread if not quite epidemic among Cathshyolics
Jesus was a devout Jew and yet Catholics are notorious for making disparaging remarks about Jews Why in the name of God would Catholics abuse Jews
No good reason Bigotry is unshyreasonable Anti-Semitism was entrenched in the Church for so long that official statements in recent decades disavowing it have failed to eliminate it Since the third century certain soshycalled churchmen have insisted on blaming Jews for the crucishyfixion Of Jesus There is a mindshyless inane perverse aspect to this After all Jesus was a Jew who lived among Jews His friends and his enemies were Jews To blame his crucifixion on Jews is about as rational as blaming the assassinations of Presidents Lincoln and Kennedy

on Americans It is just plain senseless
And yet it persisted for censhyturies St John Chrysostom who was declared patron of preachers by Pope Pius X in 1909 was a virulent anti-Semite He said in a sermon Brothel and theater the synagogue is also a cave of pirates and lair of wild beasts This fifth-century sermon conshytinues with the outpouring of vile anti-Semitism too terrible to repeat Reading his hateful reshymarks I wonder -that Chrysoshytom survived the scrutiny of saint-makers TIiey should have kept Christopher and canned Chrysostom
The SeCOnd Vatican Council in a document intended to make amends to Jews exonerated them from being guilty of the crucishyfixion of Jesus and deplored antishySemitism in any form This gesshyture was undoubtedly seen by Jews as awfully late in coming And the message has failed to filter down to the masses
Catholic anti-Semites should be repudiated Any Catholic who looks down on Jews is a halfwit The anonymous poet put it well
How odd of God to choose the Jews
But not so odd as those who choose
A Jewish God but scorn the Jews
NCCW Continued from page one
note speaker Susim Muto execushytive director of the institute of Formative Spirituality at Dushyquesne University Pittsburgh suggested ways to transform the hopelessness of the world into a world of hope
She specified waiting praying and coping with the harshness of reality as conditions for carryshy
ing the vision of hope into the world and singled out three
women as signs of hope in themselves even though they have lived in conditions that could seem hopeless
The models were St Teresa of Avila Mother Teresa of Calshycutta and Mary With Mary we empty ourselves to be full of hope and become witnesses to the world said Ms Muto And we can pray with St Teresa of Avila whoever possesses God wants nothing - God alone sufshyfices
Convention workshops ex- plored a wide spectrum of issues including the bishops pastoral on war and peace moral medical decisions and todays Christian feminist

Spiritual directors of seminshyarians must be priests Laity and non-priest religious whether bull men or women are not to be appointed to this task Bishop Marshall wrote
The directive appears to go against the practice in some US seminaries Yhich include nuns or other non-priests among spiritual directors available to seminarians It also appears to go against recommendations made four years ago by a task force of the National Federation of Spiritual Directors which favored a role for women in the

Bishop Marshalls letter was sent out Aug 6 with a study inshystrument to be used in reporting to the Vatican on the nations free-standing theological seminshyaries In free-standing seminshyaries academic and other forshymation programs are invited in a single institution
Seminary officials contacted about the letter stressed that it should be interpreted in its own context and in that of what American seminaries are actshyually doing
From their comments several themes emerged
- If any significant direct conflict between Vatican thinkshying and US practice is involved it appears to concern use if nonshypriests as spiritual directors of seminarians
- A second area of possible conflict could be the question of non-priests as seminary proshyfessors but it is not clear that When you rent a Home-Heating Burner from the Fall River there is a real conflict there

raised six children in the Cathshyolic Church and all were ecRumiddot cated in the Catholic school system Now that they are on their own all but one have joined or attend different deshynominations
Some of the children think smoking drinking and gambling are sinful and shun the ones who do these things although they do not show real animosity The family has diifted apart and ~he only time they see each other is when we invite them all over alt the same time _
My one son il constantly pressuring his father and me to attend IDs church We do not want to go but do not know how to tell him without creating hard feelings How do we handle this - Kentucky
Apparently every one of your children has a hunger for a spiritual me Like you I do not know wl)y they have sought difshyferent Christian communities to fulfill this need However they are adults now making their middotown adult choices And like the rest of us their spiritual journey is not complete
While you are not happy with their choices recognize that they lire not your doing or your fault You might also reflect that none )f them are indifferent to a piritual life
Drifting apart is typical of grown-up children Schooling jobs personal iJ1~erests marrishyage alld modern mobility lead ehildren away both physically nnd in spirit Parents remain the center that draws them back tomiddot gether You are already doing this by holding all-family gathershyings
Another way to keep adult (hildren in touch with each other is through letters Write Each child weekly regardless of whether the child responds to you If you cannot write to each individually WritE and distribute a family newsletter Photocopyshying machines are a boon to famishy
lies such as yours In your letter
include not only your own and your husbands news but also the doings of each grown child
Your son has joined another church He has found something that is important to him and he is eager to share it with you How wonderful that he takes his spiritual life so seriously and that he so loves and values the response of his parents that he wants you to come I do not know how you can resist such an important invitation
Christians share a belief in the teachings of Jesus and a conshyviction about the importance of family Churches are meant to enhance fa~ilies not to divide them

Long struggle related
By Anne Buckley
NEW YORK (NC) - For 10 years Dr Kevin Cahill did everyshything possible to keep his pashytient the late Cardinal Terence Cooke of New York functioning so that he could use every day to the maximum to serve the Lord CARDINAL COOKE
Those efforts continued until Cardinal Cookes death Oct 6 of cardinals bone marrow and red leukemia Cahill told Catholic and white blood cell system New York archdiocesan news- Cahill said paper revealing for the first time Thus came a period the physishythat during the last few months cian described as careful medishythe cardinal received chemoshy cal management including therapy in an effort to prolong blood transfusions at least once his life a month in the cardinals home
Careful to preserve his pashy and a constant watch for inshytients privacy Cahill issued only fections one statement before the carshy Hed be off to Korea after dinals death on his condition midnight Mass and everyone and treatment would say how rosy he looked
Published reports that Cardinal Sure he looked rosy hed just Cooke rejected chemotherapy been transfused the doctor prompted Cahills comments said
The cardinal received an ap- Then a change occurred ~in propriate program of chemo- earl~ August a unn~ry tract IDshy~herapy during the last few months in a continuing effort to prolong the productive life of a man who lived every minute of life CahiU said It was adshyministered in his home not only to insure his dignity and privacy for prayer but also to avoid inshyfections towhich he might have been exposed in a hospital
Cahill is convinced that the home treatment prolonged the cardinals life
The physician said that Carshydina Cooke meant what he said about the value of life even when accompanied by suffering
Ten years of my care were distilled in the last two months Cahill said saying Cardinal Cooke demonstrated true acshyceptance of suffering as a joyshyful part of life
The doctor and patient planshyned Cardinal Cookes treatment together During the more than 10 years when I cared for him he was the most cooperative pashytient always wanting the best medical advice and following whatever I asked him to do Cahill said It was always in complete and utter privacy so that illness would not take censhyter stage in the cardinals life Cahill said
The cardinal was hospitalized for cancer only twice some- 20 years ago when he had surgery for removal of tissue from his neck and in 1975 for removal of a lymphoma lesion from his mouth The rest of his treatment was administered in his home or Cahills office early in the mornshying or after regular patient hours
From 1975-79 there was intense chemotherapy daily medication and weekly injections accomshypanied ~y aU the side effects such as nausea and vomiting Cahill said
The chemotherapy killed the lymphoma but damaged the
fectlon and so~ethIDg el~e shyacute myeloblastic leukemia
The phase of 18-hour work days was over Cahill said Now the cardinal wanted to save his energy for prayer
At home the cardinal received everything that medicine could offer the doctor said Transshyfusions chemotherapy and other treatment continued
Painkillers were administered sparingly at the cardinals reshyquest because of the life he wanted Cahill said He wanted to stay prayerful and producshytive
Cahill said the cardinals apshyproach to terminal illness was
active acceptance of medical help in order to continue proshyductivity He said the cardinal wanted to give an example of courage to others who have to suffer to accept the full treatshyment available to them
He saw death as an inevitable part of life Not as something to be feared and not as something to be accepted passively as a dog rolling over Cahill said His death was absolutely total
Letters to Pope In other news of the late carshy
dinal the Vatican published on Oct 21 an unedited exchange of letters between him and Pope John Paul II in which the carshydinal implicitly offered his resigshynation as archbishop of New York because of his illness
The pope sidestepped the resigshynation offer thanked the carshydinal for his pastoral labors and promised his prayers during the cardinals illness
The cardinals offer was conshytained in an Aug 25 letter He said that due to the limitations caused by his illness he wanted to turn over the pastoral care of the archdiocese and of the Military Ordinate which he also headed to my collaborators with my encouragement
On the following day Aug 26 the Archdiocese of New York held a press conference to anshynounce that the 62-year-old carshydinal was suffering from acut~
leukemia was being cared for at home and couId die within a matter of months
The popes response dated Sept I told Cardinal Cooke of the spiritual closenesswhich he felt to the ~ardinal during his illness and thanked him for your fidelity to the wdrd of God for all your pastoral labors performed in love and suffering as well as for your personal friendship
I am sure middotthat your brothers and sisters and fellow-citizens in America will never forget all your efforts on behalf of life the right to life everyones right to life wrote the pope
Kissinger panel Continued from page one
of four American churchwomen was approved by the Senate Oct 20
The resolution sponsored by Sen Patrick J Leahy (D-Vt) does not threaten an end to US military aid But it urges appointshyment of the special prosecutor and asks that a trial in the case begin by this Dec 2 the third anniversary of the churchshywomens deaths
The measure passed by voice vote after one of its supporters Sen Frank R Lautenberg )shyNJ) said the current ambassashydor to El Salvador Thomas R Pickering supports appointment of the special prosecutor
Leahy said evidence in the case has been suppressed negshylected lost or destroyed
His resolution says vigorous prosecution of the case would promote criminal justice throughshyout El Salvador and encourage stronger pursuit of other murder cases including investigation into the death of Archbishop
Oscar Romero of San Salvador killed while celebrating Mass in March 1980
The four US churchwomen were killed Dec 2 1980 They were Maryknoll Sisters Ita Ford and Maura Clarke Ursuline Sisshyter Dorothy Kazel and lay misshysionary Jean Donovan
Five former Salvadoran Nashytional Guardsmen were arrested in May 1981 in connection with the deaths but their trials have been delayed several times

Upon his death th~ Attleboro Sun editorialized He never sought popularity but taught by precept and example the tenets of an unfaltering faith His disshycourses were plain and to the point his eloquence unvarnishmiddot ed eternalmiddot truths During his pastorate the major portion of the cost of the present day beaushytiful Gothic church was put aside
Father James M Quinn Recshytor of St Marys Cathedral was the next pastor appointed by Bishop Cassidy on June 29 1930 As a tribute to the new pastor a silent drive was made in the parish and enough money was rais~d to complete the building of a new church
The rie~ building was well under way when the old church was utterly destroyed by fire For several months thereafter Mass was celebrated at a nearby theater un~il the new church was dedicated Nov 6 1932 It is believed to be one of the finshyest examples Of Gothic archishytecture in America
For almost 17 years Father Quinn spent his strength for his people untilmiddot in May 1949 he felt that he could work no onge~ resigned his pastorate and died May 30 of the following year
In July 1950 Father John J Shay became St Johns fourth pastor During his term Boy Scouts were organized and parshy
ish societies reorganized but his major accomplishment was the construlttion of a new parochial school which opened in Septemshyber 1955 thereafter adding grades until by 1960 it offered a full eight-grade program with Sisters of Mercy as faculty memshybers
January 1958 saw celebration of St Johns 75th anniversary highlighted by a pageant preshysented by the schoolchildren and by activities of the parishs many organizations
In 1961 Father Shay passed away after an 11-year pastorate He was followed by Father Thomas F Walsh fondly reshymembered for the many parish social activities he encouraged as well as for his devotion to his flock
His pastorate of 11 years was _f0110wed by the three-year asshy
signment of Father HenryT Munroe tho was invested as a monsignor in 1974 A special event of the time was the celeshybration of St Johns 90th annishyversary in 1973 marked by a festive Mass and a dinner atshytended by J)early every living priest who had served in the parshyish
In 1975 the present pastor Very Rev J()hn J Smith came to St Johns where he combines his pastoral duties with those of the office of diocesan director of vocations and episcopal vicar of the Attieboro-Taunton deanery of the diocese He and the p~esent associate
Father Marc Tremblay share a delight in landscaping and beaushytifying the parish grounds In recognition of this the church this year received the Attleboro Gardeners Civic Beautification Award
Thus it is that parish life now entering its second century goes forward in an atmosphere 9f both physical and spiritual beauty

America and the Bible have always had an interesting relashytionship and this year Ive met many young people who want to learn more about this special pookbecause of its impact on US history
Theyve read of how the Bible formed American life through its influence on the earliest setshytiers In fact the influence beshygan befor~thecolonists came to these shores Most of them were Puritans and the Scriptures have been described as the practical and theoretical fountainhead of that movement
Biblical imagery provided the new nation with figuresof speech which have fomed the national consciousriess The titlesof more than 200 no~els and plays writshyten in the uS during a recent 10-year period for instance were taken from the Bible
Ooer262 days a study of New Yark Times editorials revealed 466 Biblical references in 367 editorials
During the summer I jotted down things people t(lld J me about their lives the failure of a marriage Smiddot friena~hip a busishyness many sorrows
And I thought of Jesus WOrds Everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house qn simd th~ rain came down the winds bl~w and it fell with Il crash
One neednt listen too careshyfully to hear the crashes Marrishyages (amilies institutions friendshIps alliances are collapshysing everywhere

Eight C-C sports teams chalkshyed up nine wins in one recent week All varsity teams were victorious with volleyballers bringing in two triumphs
~ay one respects it but not to live accordng to its message will not supply strength in crisis

connection with the 1979 Sanshydinista revolution in Nicaragua if it is right for journalists to make a glamorous career out of other peoples misery and whether they should become participants in events they are supposed to be reporting
Russel Price (Nick Nolte) an American journalist finds that the corruption and brutality in Nicaragua break through his deshytachment Encouraged by Claire (Joanna Cassidy) a fellow journshyalist he agrees to photograph a charismatic Sandinista leader killed in battle as if he were still alive to keep up the morale of

themoorin~ TV Addiction
Anyone attempting to put together a parish religious education program knows that a prime enemy is the large screen commonly found in the center of the family liying room I
The TV set has become todays family shrine It is cared for checked on and treated with respec~ bordering on religious devotion As its offerings grow in number land variety it wins over many who once ignored it as a w~ste of time The advent of cable has transformed the hpme TV set into a media buffet serving sometbing for everyshyone from the esthete to the pervert i
What we have now is only a glimpse of what ithe future holds It will be only a few years before satepite down links bring hundreds of channels into our homes
New doors new ~orlds will open to families ~ut ~ith almost unlimited selections at hand will come unlimited problems What currently seems horrendous is only a small inkling of the future To be sure there are and will ~e many wonderful programs but there will also be eyen
more detrimental viewing opportunities than at presenf Yet these choices are not the real problem The real
heart of the matter is the television itself [ First and foremost it turns the viewer into a passive
receiver This would be true even if the air waves ~ere full of the Gospel message The fact ismiddot that one can Ido very little else while entrapped by the boob tube Teleshyvision does not require activityit demands passivity liAS one writer put it TV turns all its viewers into sJ1ut-ins
Look what it does to children It is so easy to keep the kids quiet and out of our hair by plugging them ihto the TV But it keeps them passive and inactive Inst~ad of learning the important lessons that only personal in~er- actions can teach they are as removed from othfrs whep they sit in front of middotthe television as if there were no 6ne else in the room I
TV treats adults in the same way It destroys family communication restricting all conversation I
Considering what is around the television cornerl it would be weil to take immediate corrective measutes against the serious problems video can bring a househ~ld
For starters it would be well to remove the TV set from the center stage of family life Its location in a home tells one much as to where that homes heart is Expetts indeed tell us to get it away from the main traffic p~t-terns of a house I
Dont build a living room Or den around a TV Dont turn it on when company is present _ j
The problem of monitoring it is already never endshying And soon families will have to make choices froml a smorgasbord containing items making our present X-rated offerings seem like the Muppet Show But vvhat we a1l6w
in our homes is what we allow in our hearts I As we journey into days where television will seek lto
encroach even more than now upon our leisure time oe must try to relegate it to its proper place in our lives The more people dwelt in their separate worlds of TV fantasy the less they will care and share ~ith one ahCther I
We must learn to master television We must not let it master us or our families I

- A BOY DOES HIS HOMEWORK IN FRONT OF THE GAS STOVE IN HIS IH~ATLESS APARTMENT
The Lord hath not forgotten the cry of the poor Ps 91213 ~ -
Inclusive Language
Ey Father Kevin J Harringtol
TIre National Council of Churches recently unveiled an attempt to revise Bible passages to eliminate references to God as male
Changes include substitution of Child for Son with reference to Christ Father and Mother fol Father alone with reference to God and Sovereignty for Lord The contention is that male-dominated imagery perpetshyuates unhealthy -continuation of the notion of patriarchal domin~ allee
Those w~o dismiss these chlnges as frivolous are unaware I
of the power of language From my perspective the changes could have a deleterious effect upon the way future generations inshyherit the cherished religious beshyliefs of their predecessors
While such radical adaptation admits for a temporary releshyVaclce it seems of dubious value Biblical language as we have recl~ived it served our ancestors well during previous periods of vast change The changes presshyently proposed are not only jarshyring in their unfamiliarity but senre little purpose in enriching middotthe deposit of faith as it has been transmitted throughout hisshytory
A handful of feminists have proved that theycan change the language of the Bible through power politics Historians will not look upon publication of their boole An Inclusive Language Lectionary as a step in the right direction but as a mutashytion favorably received by few
While it may be true that God
) shy
chose to become a man because he chose to ihcarnate into Ii pashytriarchal socity and that Jesus referred to God as Father beshycause he chose not to offend his contemporaries cultural biases if I were a betting man I would wager that it is the advocates of reform who are afraid to offend the biases of the feminists -
Perhaps the debate would be unnecessary if we hetter undershystood the nature of a metaphor Webster defines a -p1etaphor as Ii figure of speech in which a word or phrase literally denoting one kind of object or idea is used in place of another to suggest a likeness or analogy between them
A feminist who has a hard time accepting the maleness of Jesus is reflecting her own limited but negative impression of males Likewise a feminist who balks at accepting the fatherhood of God is reflect~ng
her own limited and negative impression of fathers
In Roman Catholic tradition strong respect ~ for certain quali~
ties associated with the feminshyine is encompassed in the devoshytion of the faithful to the Blessshyed Mother Grace always buiJds upon nature Positive male qualishyties are evidenced in the life of
Jesus as are positive female qualities in the life of Mary It is wrong to assume that these qualities are totally a function of nurture and not of nature -By acceding to the requests of a l~andful of feminists with regard to the langlage of theology we legitimate a fallacy
s the age-old controversy of
heredity versus environment nature versus nurture continues lets leave theological language
alone Over-eagerness for change is immature We must not misshytake for God that which only points to God The pointer is no more God than a finger that points at the moon is the moon We find it easy to mistake the finger for the moon the pointer for the referent

Family Night A weekly at-home program for families
sponsored by the Dio~esan Office of Family Ministry
OPENING PRAYER Dear Father we praise and
thank you for the rainbow of beautiful people in our lives Help us to recognize the specialshyness of each one especially those in our own family Amen
ACTIVITY TIME People are like rainbows They
come in many colors and hues They come into our lives and while they are there they fill it with color and beauty
Young Family Have fun playing with bubbles
commercial or homemade Point out the rainbow of colors as the bubbles float through the air
Middle Years Family Rainbow Mobile Materials
crayons chalk construction paper string hanger Make a rainbow by cutting paper strips like arches Use different colors Each arch is suspended from a hanger by two pieces of string The lengths of string are a little longer each time Write the names of some of the new peoshyple teachers and friends you have met since the new school year began
Adult Family Read the biblical story of Joshy
Im just Im just no good he
said head bowed on hands eyes refusing to meet those of the adults gathered round to help him Ive never been any good he added after a pause I cant get good grades I cant run good so I cant make a team and look at qty face He raised his head and we dutifully viewshyed mild adolescent zits sprinkled here and there
Ill call him Tony age 15 a classic example of what we call a shame-based personality He was being counselled for drug experimentation and inability to communicate with his family
His family - thats another story It matched the billboard image of the good family of past definition - two parents upshywardly mobile intensely intershyested in rearing successful chilshydren and strong authoritarian Christians We had met with them end found them to be caring parents but their style of parenting hearkened back to the sad method of shaming and hushymiliating their children who didnt perform well in family school or sports
They couldnt accept Tonys natural limitations in school and athletics and instead under the guise of support pressured him to achieve the impossible If they pushed enough they were sure he would find the brains to be an A student and the muscles to make the team
seph and the Coat of Many Colors (Genesis Chapters 37shy47) Discuss the symbolism in the story and especially the family relationships fatherson brothersbrothers How do you deal with the dreams and aspirashytions of a family member How do you handle jealousies resentshyments achievements and honors that occur in family life
SNACK A jello desert in a rainbow of
colors would have to be preshypared ahead of time Rlinbow sherbet or neopolitan ice cream would also carry out the theme quite well
ENTERTAINMENT Divide the family into two
teams Give each team a feather and see which side can keep the feather in the air the longest time by blowing it
SHARING 1 Share something about the
middotrbullbullbullbull__middot -rbullbull7 __middotr-r no good
More sadly they failed to recognize his natural gifts which would have given him the selfshyesteem he was so tragically lackshying if they had been acknowshyledged and valued Tony had wonderful gifts He got along well with everyone (except his parents) He preferred cooperashytion to competition so he didnt play to win or try to outshine classmates He stepped in whenshyever someone bullied a weaker one He was a sensitive introsshypective young man with absoshylutely no self-worth - a prime candidate for drug abuse
Nine out of 10 young drug users have shame-based personshyalities Like Tony they view themselves as unworthy in a society that judges individuals by their achievement rather than their character The remaining one out of 10 has good selfshyesteem and views his or her drug use as a behavior whichmiddot needs correcting not evidence of provshying unworthiness
Tony needed help but his famshyily needed it first We had to work with his parents teaching them to help Tony to like himshyself and that was difficult beshycause while they loved him they werent proud of him He was an embarrassment to them beshycause he got C-minuses and didnt make any teams
His dads anguished question still rings in my ears How can you raise his self-esteem when he doesnt have ~nything to work
most beautiful person you know
2 Share a time when you were jealous of another family member
3 Share a time when you were really proud of someshyone in your family
CLOSING PRAYER -Join hands for spontaneous
prayer -Sugggested Prayer The
Prayer of St Francis Lord make me an instrument
of your peace Where there is hatred let me
sow love where there is injury pardon where there is doubt faith where there is despair hope where there is darkness light o Divine Master grant that I may not so much
seek to be consoled as to console
to be understood as to under- stand
to be loved as to love For it is in giving that we
receive it is in pardoning that we are
pardoned and it is in dying that we are
born to eternal life Amen

on He glimpsed little value in the strengths I listed above He says only class rank awards and trophies are criteria
I meet Tonys parents everyshywhere They want to know how to recognize and value special gifts in children that werent valued when they were children I begin by listing gifts to look for and encouraging them to praise their children for these is your child a peacemaker Does he care about others Is he pleasant to be around Is he good at fiXing things Does he have a humor that defuses famshyily tension Does he enjoy solishytude Does he have a strong sense of fairness Does he help others knowing he wont get any credit for it Does he have a good memory filling in details the family has forgotten Is he a good listener even if he doesnt want to talk or argue
Im happy to report that Tonys parents are starting to affirm these qualities and are having limited success They realize they were trying to change him into something he isnt and theyre seeing an improved self-accepshytance as a worthwhile person
THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Fri Ocl 28 1983
We are spiritual Semites
Rabbi Marc Tanenbaum of the American Jewish Committee tells a good story about a pope and a rabbi The pope in the story is John XXIII The rabbis name escapes me In any event as Rabbi Tanenbaum relates it the pope and the rabbi had just concluded a discussion of matters of mutual interest and were moving from a sitting room into an adjoining room for lunch when an amiable difference of opinion arose beshytween them as to who should precede whom through the doorshyway
You first rabbi the pope inshysisted genially
Oh no after you Your Holishyness the rabbi replied deferenshytially
This stand-off continued with elaborate bowing and gesturing Finally Pope John took the rabbi firmly by the arm gently pushed him through the doorshyway first and proclaimed with affable finality The Old Testashyment before the New Testashymentl
It was a wonderful remark on several levels It was witty it was wise it was welcoming The Old Testament before the New Testament We are all spiritual Semites Christianity descended from Judaism Jesus was a Jew
One day a while ago I was riding the bus to work An acshyquaintance who never misses Sunday Mass sat beside me We were reading our newspapers He happened upon an item about an upcoming TV program devoted to the Holocaust Look at this he said sneering Just what we need - another proshygram about the Holocaust
-I said nothing because I hate
scenes but the remark infuriated me I suppose I have heard 100 similar snide remarks out of the mouths of Catholics over the years My impression is that antiSemitism is widespread if not quite epidemic among Cathshyolics
Jesus was a devout Jew and yet Catholics are notorious for making disparaging remarks about Jews Why in the name of God would Catholics abuse Jews
No good reason Bigotry is unshyreasonable Anti-Semitism was entrenched in the Church for so long that official statements in recent decades disavowing it have failed to eliminate it Since the third century certain soshycalled churchmen have insisted on blaming Jews for the crucishyfixion Of Jesus There is a mindshyless inane perverse aspect to this After all Jesus was a Jew who lived among Jews His friends and his enemies were Jews To blame his crucifixion on Jews is about as rational as blaming the assassinations of Presidents Lincoln and Kennedy

on Americans It is just plain senseless
And yet it persisted for censhyturies St John Chrysostom who was declared patron of preachers by Pope Pius X in 1909 was a virulent anti-Semite He said in a sermon Brothel and theater the synagogue is also a cave of pirates and lair of wild beasts This fifth-century sermon conshytinues with the outpouring of vile anti-Semitism too terrible to repeat Reading his hateful reshymarks I wonder -that Chrysoshytom survived the scrutiny of saint-makers TIiey should have kept Christopher and canned Chrysostom
The SeCOnd Vatican Council in a document intended to make amends to Jews exonerated them from being guilty of the crucishyfixion of Jesus and deplored antishySemitism in any form This gesshyture was undoubtedly seen by Jews as awfully late in coming And the message has failed to filter down to the masses
Catholic anti-Semites should be repudiated Any Catholic who looks down on Jews is a halfwit The anonymous poet put it well
How odd of God to choose the Jews
But not so odd as those who choose
A Jewish God but scorn the Jews
NCCW Continued from page one
note speaker Susim Muto execushytive director of the institute of Formative Spirituality at Dushyquesne University Pittsburgh suggested ways to transform the hopelessness of the world into a world of hope
She specified waiting praying and coping with the harshness of reality as conditions for carryshy
ing the vision of hope into the world and singled out three
women as signs of hope in themselves even though they have lived in conditions that could seem hopeless
The models were St Teresa of Avila Mother Teresa of Calshycutta and Mary With Mary we empty ourselves to be full of hope and become witnesses to the world said Ms Muto And we can pray with St Teresa of Avila whoever possesses God wants nothing - God alone sufshyfices
Convention workshops ex- plored a wide spectrum of issues including the bishops pastoral on war and peace moral medical decisions and todays Christian feminist

Spiritual directors of seminshyarians must be priests Laity and non-priest religious whether bull men or women are not to be appointed to this task Bishop Marshall wrote
The directive appears to go against the practice in some US seminaries Yhich include nuns or other non-priests among spiritual directors available to seminarians It also appears to go against recommendations made four years ago by a task force of the National Federation of Spiritual Directors which favored a role for women in the
C program of spiritual direction and formation of future priests
Bishop Marshalls letter also said that the Vatican Congregashy Beginning November 1 1983 The Fall River Gas Company tion for Catholic Education which is responsible for seminary can save you quite a bit of money if you convert to Gas Heat training holds that students because gas will be selling at t~e equivalent of 80c oil underother than seminarians are not

Bishop Marshalls letter was sent out Aug 6 with a study inshystrument to be used in reporting to the Vatican on the nations free-standing theological seminshyaries In free-standing seminshyaries academic and other forshymation programs are invited in a single institution
Seminary officials contacted about the letter stressed that it should be interpreted in its own context and in that of what American seminaries are actshyually doing
From their comments several themes emerged
- If any significant direct conflict between Vatican thinkshying and US practice is involved it appears to concern use if nonshypriests as spiritual directors of seminarians
- A second area of possible conflict could be the question of non-priests as seminary proshyfessors but it is not clear that When you rent a Home-Heating Burner from the Fall River there is a real conflict there

By Dr James aDd Mary Kenny Dear Mary My husband and I
raised six children in the Cathshyolic Church and all were ecRumiddot cated in the Catholic school system Now that they are on their own all but one have joined or attend different deshynominations
Some of the children think smoking drinking and gambling are sinful and shun the ones who do these things although they do not show real animosity The family has diifted apart and ~he only time they see each other is when we invite them all over alt the same time _
My one son il constantly pressuring his father and me to attend IDs church We do not want to go but do not know how to tell him without creating hard feelings How do we handle this - Kentucky
Apparently every one of your children has a hunger for a spiritual me Like you I do not know wl)y they have sought difshyferent Christian communities to fulfill this need However they are adults now making their middotown adult choices And like the rest of us their spiritual journey is not complete
While you are not happy with their choices recognize that they lire not your doing or your fault You might also reflect that none )f them are indifferent to a piritual life
Drifting apart is typical of grown-up children Schooling jobs personal iJ1~erests marrishyage alld modern mobility lead ehildren away both physically nnd in spirit Parents remain the center that draws them back tomiddot gether You are already doing this by holding all-family gathershyings
Another way to keep adult (hildren in touch with each other is through letters Write Each child weekly regardless of whether the child responds to you If you cannot write to each individually WritE and distribute a family newsletter Photocopyshying machines are a boon to famishy
lies such as yours In your letter
include not only your own and your husbands news but also the doings of each grown child
Your son has joined another church He has found something that is important to him and he is eager to share it with you How wonderful that he takes his spiritual life so seriously and that he so loves and values the response of his parents that he wants you to come I do not know how you can resist such an important invitation
Christians share a belief in the teachings of Jesus and a conshyviction about the importance of family Churches are meant to enhance fa~ilies not to divide them

Long struggle related
By Anne Buckley
NEW YORK (NC) - For 10 years Dr Kevin Cahill did everyshything possible to keep his pashytient the late Cardinal Terence Cooke of New York functioning so that he could use every day to the maximum to serve the Lord CARDINAL COOKE
Those efforts continued until Cardinal Cookes death Oct 6 of cardinals bone marrow and red leukemia Cahill told Catholic and white blood cell system New York archdiocesan news- Cahill said paper revealing for the first time Thus came a period the physishythat during the last few months cian described as careful medishythe cardinal received chemoshy cal management including therapy in an effort to prolong blood transfusions at least once his life a month in the cardinals home
Careful to preserve his pashy and a constant watch for inshytients privacy Cahill issued only fections one statement before the carshy Hed be off to Korea after dinals death on his condition midnight Mass and everyone and treatment would say how rosy he looked
Published reports that Cardinal Sure he looked rosy hed just Cooke rejected chemotherapy been transfused the doctor prompted Cahills comments said
The cardinal received an ap- Then a change occurred ~in propriate program of chemo- earl~ August a unn~ry tract IDshy~herapy during the last few months in a continuing effort to prolong the productive life of a man who lived every minute of life CahiU said It was adshyministered in his home not only to insure his dignity and privacy for prayer but also to avoid inshyfections towhich he might have been exposed in a hospital
Cahill is convinced that the home treatment prolonged the cardinals life
The physician said that Carshydina Cooke meant what he said about the value of life even when accompanied by suffering
Ten years of my care were distilled in the last two months Cahill said saying Cardinal Cooke demonstrated true acshyceptance of suffering as a joyshyful part of life
The doctor and patient planshyned Cardinal Cookes treatment together During the more than 10 years when I cared for him he was the most cooperative pashytient always wanting the best medical advice and following whatever I asked him to do Cahill said It was always in complete and utter privacy so that illness would not take censhyter stage in the cardinals life Cahill said
The cardinal was hospitalized for cancer only twice some- 20 years ago when he had surgery for removal of tissue from his neck and in 1975 for removal of a lymphoma lesion from his mouth The rest of his treatment was administered in his home or Cahills office early in the mornshying or after regular patient hours
From 1975-79 there was intense chemotherapy daily medication and weekly injections accomshypanied ~y aU the side effects such as nausea and vomiting Cahill said
The chemotherapy killed the lymphoma but damaged the
fectlon and so~ethIDg el~e shyacute myeloblastic leukemia
The phase of 18-hour work days was over Cahill said Now the cardinal wanted to save his energy for prayer
At home the cardinal received everything that medicine could offer the doctor said Transshyfusions chemotherapy and other treatment continued
Painkillers were administered sparingly at the cardinals reshyquest because of the life he wanted Cahill said He wanted to stay prayerful and producshytive
Cahill said the cardinals apshyproach to terminal illness was
active acceptance of medical help in order to continue proshyductivity He said the cardinal wanted to give an example of courage to others who have to suffer to accept the full treatshyment available to them
He saw death as an inevitable part of life Not as something to be feared and not as something to be accepted passively as a dog rolling over Cahill said His death was absolutely total
Letters to Pope In other news of the late carshy
dinal the Vatican published on Oct 21 an unedited exchange of letters between him and Pope John Paul II in which the carshydinal implicitly offered his resigshynation as archbishop of New York because of his illness
The pope sidestepped the resigshynation offer thanked the carshydinal for his pastoral labors and promised his prayers during the cardinals illness
The cardinals offer was conshytained in an Aug 25 letter He said that due to the limitations caused by his illness he wanted to turn over the pastoral care of the archdiocese and of the Military Ordinate which he also headed to my collaborators with my encouragement
On the following day Aug 26 the Archdiocese of New York held a press conference to anshynounce that the 62-year-old carshydinal was suffering from acut~
leukemia was being cared for at home and couId die within a matter of months
The popes response dated Sept I told Cardinal Cooke of the spiritual closenesswhich he felt to the ~ardinal during his illness and thanked him for your fidelity to the wdrd of God for all your pastoral labors performed in love and suffering as well as for your personal friendship
I am sure middotthat your brothers and sisters and fellow-citizens in America will never forget all your efforts on behalf of life the right to life everyones right to life wrote the pope
Kissinger panel Continued from page one
of four American churchwomen was approved by the Senate Oct 20
The resolution sponsored by Sen Patrick J Leahy (D-Vt) does not threaten an end to US military aid But it urges appointshyment of the special prosecutor and asks that a trial in the case begin by this Dec 2 the third anniversary of the churchshywomens deaths
The measure passed by voice vote after one of its supporters Sen Frank R Lautenberg )shyNJ) said the current ambassashydor to El Salvador Thomas R Pickering supports appointment of the special prosecutor
Leahy said evidence in the case has been suppressed negshylected lost or destroyed
His resolution says vigorous prosecution of the case would promote criminal justice throughshyout El Salvador and encourage stronger pursuit of other murder cases including investigation into the death of Archbishop
Oscar Romero of San Salvador killed while celebrating Mass in March 1980
The four US churchwomen were killed Dec 2 1980 They were Maryknoll Sisters Ita Ford and Maura Clarke Ursuline Sisshyter Dorothy Kazel and lay misshysionary Jean Donovan
Five former Salvadoran Nashytional Guardsmen were arrested in May 1981 in connection with the deaths but their trials have been delayed several times

Attleboro church is 100 years old bull
For 100 years the faith has been lived in this parish said Bishop Daniel A Cronin in adshydressing members of St John the Evangelist Chur9h Attleboro as they celebrated its centennial at a Mass on Sept 25
From the first pastor Father John bullOConnell to the present Father Smith he continued children have been baptized reshyceived their first communion and been confirmed here
This is the Holy Year of Reshydemption and the redemptive graces won for us by Christ have been enjoyed by the people of St Johns for the past century
The celebration was an ocshycasion for looking back over the parish history which began in 1883 when Father OConnell was assigned by Bishop Thomas Hendricken of the Providence diocese which then Included the Fall River area to found a- parshyish in Attleboro
The first Mass was said Jan 6 1883 in Union Hall Attleshyboro but Father John as he was universally known soon organshyized fundraising efforts and on Sept 17 1883 the cornerstone w~s laid on North Main Street

for a building 10 feet long and 50 feet wide seating 700 pershysons It was dedicated Sept 22 1885
Father OConnell served his parish for 27 years before his sudden death shocked the city He was followed by Fath~r
David F Sheedy who served from 1910 to 1930 During his pastorate the parishioners doubled in number despite creashytion of two new parishes from the origimll St Johns
Upon his death th~ Attleboro Sun editorialized He never sought popularity but taught by precept and example the tenets of an unfaltering faith His disshycourses were plain and to the point his eloquence unvarnishmiddot ed eternalmiddot truths During his pastorate the major portion of the cost of the present day beaushytiful Gothic church was put aside
Father James M Quinn Recshytor of St Marys Cathedral was the next pastor appointed by Bishop Cassidy on June 29 1930 As a tribute to the new pastor a silent drive was made in the parish and enough money was rais~d to complete the building of a new church
The rie~ building was well under way when the old church was utterly destroyed by fire For several months thereafter Mass was celebrated at a nearby theater un~il the new church was dedicated Nov 6 1932 It is believed to be one of the finshyest examples Of Gothic archishytecture in America
For almost 17 years Father Quinn spent his strength for his people untilmiddot in May 1949 he felt that he could work no onge~ resigned his pastorate and died May 30 of the following year
In July 1950 Father John J Shay became St Johns fourth pastor During his term Boy Scouts were organized and parshy
ish societies reorganized but his major accomplishment was the construlttion of a new parochial school which opened in Septemshyber 1955 thereafter adding grades until by 1960 it offered a full eight-grade program with Sisters of Mercy as faculty memshybers
January 1958 saw celebration of St Johns 75th anniversary highlighted by a pageant preshysented by the schoolchildren and by activities of the parishs many organizations
In 1961 Father Shay passed away after an 11-year pastorate He was followed by Father Thomas F Walsh fondly reshymembered for the many parish social activities he encouraged as well as for his devotion to his flock
His pastorate of 11 years was _f0110wed by the three-year asshy
signment of Father HenryT Munroe tho was invested as a monsignor in 1974 A special event of the time was the celeshybration of St Johns 90th annishyversary in 1973 marked by a festive Mass and a dinner atshytended by J)early every living priest who had served in the parshyish
In 1975 the present pastor Very Rev J()hn J Smith came to St Johns where he combines his pastoral duties with those of the office of diocesan director of vocations and episcopal vicar of the Attieboro-Taunton deanery of the diocese He and the p~esent associate
Father Marc Tremblay share a delight in landscaping and beaushytifying the parish grounds In recognition of this the church this year received the Attleboro Gardeners Civic Beautification Award
Thus it is that parish life now entering its second century goes forward in an atmosphere 9f both physical and spiritual beauty

America and the Bible have always had an interesting relashytionship and this year Ive met many young people who want to learn more about this special pookbecause of its impact on US history
Theyve read of how the Bible formed American life through its influence on the earliest setshytiers In fact the influence beshygan befor~thecolonists came to these shores Most of them were Puritans and the Scriptures have been described as the practical and theoretical fountainhead of that movement
Biblical imagery provided the new nation with figuresof speech which have fomed the national consciousriess The titlesof more than 200 no~els and plays writshyten in the uS during a recent 10-year period for instance were taken from the Bible

themoorin~ TV Addiction
Anyone attempting to put together a parish religious education program knows that a prime enemy is the large screen commonly found in the center of the family liying room I
The TV set has become todays family shrine It is cared for checked on and treated with respec~ bordering on religious devotion As its offerings grow in number land variety it wins over many who once ignored it as a w~ste of time The advent of cable has transformed the hpme TV set into a media buffet serving sometbing for everyshyone from the esthete to the pervert i
What we have now is only a glimpse of what ithe future holds It will be only a few years before satepite down links bring hundreds of channels into our homes
New doors new ~orlds will open to families ~ut ~ith almost unlimited selections at hand will come unlimited problems What currently seems horrendous is only a small inkling of the future To be sure there are and will ~e many wonderful programs but there will also be eyen
more detrimental viewing opportunities than at presenf Yet these choices are not the real problem The real
heart of the matter is the television itself [ First and foremost it turns the viewer into a passive
receiver This would be true even if the air waves ~ere full of the Gospel message The fact ismiddot that one can Ido very little else while entrapped by the boob tube Teleshyvision does not require activityit demands passivity liAS one writer put it TV turns all its viewers into sJ1ut-ins
Look what it does to children It is so easy to keep the kids quiet and out of our hair by plugging them ihto the TV But it keeps them passive and inactive Inst~ad of learning the important lessons that only personal in~er- actions can teach they are as removed from othfrs whep they sit in front of middotthe television as if there were no 6ne else in the room I
TV treats adults in the same way It destroys family communication restricting all conversation I
Considering what is around the television cornerl it would be weil to take immediate corrective measutes against the serious problems video can bring a househ~ld
For starters it would be well to remove the TV set from the center stage of family life Its location in a home tells one much as to where that homes heart is Expetts indeed tell us to get it away from the main traffic p~t-terns of a house I
Dont build a living room Or den around a TV Dont turn it on when company is present _ j
The problem of monitoring it is already never endshying And soon families will have to make choices froml a smorgasbord containing items making our present X-rated offerings seem like the Muppet Show But vvhat we a1l6w
in our homes is what we allow in our hearts I As we journey into days where television will seek lto
encroach even more than now upon our leisure time oe must try to relegate it to its proper place in our lives The more people dwelt in their separate worlds of TV fantasy the less they will care and share ~ith one ahCther I
We must learn to master television We must not let it master us or our families I

The Lord hath not forgotten the cry of the poor Ps 91213 ~ -
Inclusive Language
Ey Father Kevin J Harringtol
TIre National Council of Churches recently unveiled an attempt to revise Bible passages to eliminate references to God as male
Changes include substitution of Child for Son with reference to Christ Father and Mother fol Father alone with reference to God and Sovereignty for Lord The contention is that male-dominated imagery perpetshyuates unhealthy -continuation of the notion of patriarchal domin~ allee
Those w~o dismiss these chlnges as frivolous are unaware I
of the power of language From my perspective the changes could have a deleterious effect upon the way future generations inshyherit the cherished religious beshyliefs of their predecessors
While such radical adaptation admits for a temporary releshyVaclce it seems of dubious value Biblical language as we have recl~ived it served our ancestors well during previous periods of vast change The changes presshyently proposed are not only jarshyring in their unfamiliarity but senre little purpose in enriching middotthe deposit of faith as it has been transmitted throughout hisshytory
A handful of feminists have proved that theycan change the language of the Bible through power politics Historians will not look upon publication of their boole An Inclusive Language Lectionary as a step in the right direction but as a mutashytion favorably received by few
While it may be true that God
) shy
chose to become a man because he chose to ihcarnate into Ii pashytriarchal socity and that Jesus referred to God as Father beshycause he chose not to offend his contemporaries cultural biases if I were a betting man I would wager that it is the advocates of reform who are afraid to offend the biases of the feminists -
Perhaps the debate would be unnecessary if we hetter undershystood the nature of a metaphor Webster defines a -p1etaphor as Ii figure of speech in which a word or phrase literally denoting one kind of object or idea is used in place of another to suggest a likeness or analogy between them
A feminist who has a hard time accepting the maleness of Jesus is reflecting her own limited but negative impression of males Likewise a feminist who balks at accepting the fatherhood of God is reflect~ng
her own limited and negative impression of fathers
In Roman Catholic tradition strong respect ~ for certain quali~
ties associated with the feminshyine is encompassed in the devoshytion of the faithful to the Blessshyed Mother Grace always buiJds upon nature Positive male qualishyties are evidenced in the life of
Jesus as are positive female qualities in the life of Mary It is wrong to assume that these qualities are totally a function of nurture and not of nature -By acceding to the requests of a l~andful of feminists with regard to the langlage of theology we legitimate a fallacy
s the age-old controversy of
heredity versus environment nature versus nurture continues lets leave theological language
alone Over-eagerness for change is immature We must not misshytake for God that which only points to God The pointer is no more God than a finger that points at the moon is the moon We find it easy to mistake the finger for the moon the pointer for the referent

Family Night A weekly at-home program for families
sponsored by the Dio~esan Office of Family Ministry
OPENING PRAYER Dear Father we praise and
thank you for the rainbow of beautiful people in our lives Help us to recognize the specialshyness of each one especially those in our own family Amen
ACTIVITY TIME People are like rainbows They
come in many colors and hues They come into our lives and while they are there they fill it with color and beauty
Young Family Have fun playing with bubbles
commercial or homemade Point out the rainbow of colors as the bubbles float through the air
Middle Years Family Rainbow Mobile Materials
crayons chalk construction paper string hanger Make a rainbow by cutting paper strips like arches Use different colors Each arch is suspended from a hanger by two pieces of string The lengths of string are a little longer each time Write the names of some of the new peoshyple teachers and friends you have met since the new school year began
Adult Family Read the biblical story of Joshy
Im just Im just no good he
said head bowed on hands eyes refusing to meet those of the adults gathered round to help him Ive never been any good he added after a pause I cant get good grades I cant run good so I cant make a team and look at qty face He raised his head and we dutifully viewshyed mild adolescent zits sprinkled here and there
Ill call him Tony age 15 a classic example of what we call a shame-based personality He was being counselled for drug experimentation and inability to communicate with his family
His family - thats another story It matched the billboard image of the good family of past definition - two parents upshywardly mobile intensely intershyested in rearing successful chilshydren and strong authoritarian Christians We had met with them end found them to be caring parents but their style of parenting hearkened back to the sad method of shaming and hushymiliating their children who didnt perform well in family school or sports
They couldnt accept Tonys natural limitations in school and athletics and instead under the guise of support pressured him to achieve the impossible If they pushed enough they were sure he would find the brains to be an A student and the muscles to make the team
seph and the Coat of Many Colors (Genesis Chapters 37shy47) Discuss the symbolism in the story and especially the family relationships fatherson brothersbrothers How do you deal with the dreams and aspirashytions of a family member How do you handle jealousies resentshyments achievements and honors that occur in family life
SNACK A jello desert in a rainbow of
colors would have to be preshypared ahead of time Rlinbow sherbet or neopolitan ice cream would also carry out the theme quite well
ENTERTAINMENT Divide the family into two
teams Give each team a feather and see which side can keep the feather in the air the longest time by blowing it
SHARING 1 Share something about the
middotrbullbullbullbull__middot -rbullbull7 __middotr-r no good
More sadly they failed to recognize his natural gifts which would have given him the selfshyesteem he was so tragically lackshying if they had been acknowshyledged and valued Tony had wonderful gifts He got along well with everyone (except his parents) He preferred cooperashytion to competition so he didnt play to win or try to outshine classmates He stepped in whenshyever someone bullied a weaker one He was a sensitive introsshypective young man with absoshylutely no self-worth - a prime candidate for drug abuse
Nine out of 10 young drug users have shame-based personshyalities Like Tony they view themselves as unworthy in a society that judges individuals by their achievement rather than their character The remaining one out of 10 has good selfshyesteem and views his or her drug use as a behavior whichmiddot needs correcting not evidence of provshying unworthiness
Tony needed help but his famshyily needed it first We had to work with his parents teaching them to help Tony to like himshyself and that was difficult beshycause while they loved him they werent proud of him He was an embarrassment to them beshycause he got C-minuses and didnt make any teams
His dads anguished question still rings in my ears How can you raise his self-esteem when he doesnt have ~nything to work
most beautiful person you know
2 Share a time when you were jealous of another family member
3 Share a time when you were really proud of someshyone in your family
CLOSING PRAYER -Join hands for spontaneous
prayer -Sugggested Prayer The
Prayer of St Francis Lord make me an instrument
of your peace Where there is hatred let me
sow love where there is injury pardon where there is doubt faith where there is despair hope where there is darkness light o Divine Master grant that I may not so much
seek to be consoled as to console
to be understood as to under- stand
to be loved as to love For it is in giving that we
receive it is in pardoning that we are
pardoned and it is in dying that we are
born to eternal life Amen

I meet Tonys parents everyshywhere They want to know how to recognize and value special gifts in children that werent valued when they were children I begin by listing gifts to look for and encouraging them to praise their children for these is your child a peacemaker Does he care about others Is he pleasant to be around Is he good at fiXing things Does he have a humor that defuses famshyily tension Does he enjoy solishytude Does he have a strong sense of fairness Does he help others knowing he wont get any credit for it Does he have a good memory filling in details the family has forgotten Is he a good listener even if he doesnt want to talk or argue
Im happy to report that Tonys parents are starting to affirm these qualities and are having limited success They realize they were trying to change him into something he isnt and theyre seeing an improved self-accepshytance as a worthwhile person
THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Fri Ocl 28 1983
We are spiritual Semites
Rabbi Marc Tanenbaum of the American Jewish Committee tells a good story about a pope and a rabbi The pope in the story is John XXIII The rabbis name escapes me In any event as Rabbi Tanenbaum relates it the pope and the rabbi had just concluded a discussion of matters of mutual interest and were moving from a sitting room into an adjoining room for lunch when an amiable difference of opinion arose beshytween them as to who should precede whom through the doorshyway
You first rabbi the pope inshysisted genially
Oh no after you Your Holishyness the rabbi replied deferenshytially
This stand-off continued with elaborate bowing and gesturing Finally Pope John took the rabbi firmly by the arm gently pushed him through the doorshyway first and proclaimed with affable finality The Old Testashyment before the New Testashymentl
It was a wonderful remark on several levels It was witty it was wise it was welcoming The Old Testament before the New Testament We are all spiritual Semites Christianity descended from Judaism Jesus was a Jew
One day a while ago I was riding the bus to work An acshyquaintance who never misses Sunday Mass sat beside me We were reading our newspapers He happened upon an item about an upcoming TV program devoted to the Holocaust Look at this he said sneering Just what we need - another proshygram about the Holocaust
-I said nothing because I hate
scenes but the remark infuriated me I suppose I have heard 100 similar snide remarks out of the mouths of Catholics over the years My impression is that antiSemitism is widespread if not quite epidemic among Cathshyolics
Jesus was a devout Jew and yet Catholics are notorious for making disparaging remarks about Jews Why in the name of God would Catholics abuse Jews
No good reason Bigotry is unshyreasonable Anti-Semitism was entrenched in the Church for so long that official statements in recent decades disavowing it have failed to eliminate it Since the third century certain soshycalled churchmen have insisted on blaming Jews for the crucishyfixion Of Jesus There is a mindshyless inane perverse aspect to this After all Jesus was a Jew who lived among Jews His friends and his enemies were Jews To blame his crucifixion on Jews is about as rational as blaming the assassinations of Presidents Lincoln and Kennedy

on Americans It is just plain senseless
And yet it persisted for censhyturies St John Chrysostom who was declared patron of preachers by Pope Pius X in 1909 was a virulent anti-Semite He said in a sermon Brothel and theater the synagogue is also a cave of pirates and lair of wild beasts This fifth-century sermon conshytinues with the outpouring of vile anti-Semitism too terrible to repeat Reading his hateful reshymarks I wonder -that Chrysoshytom survived the scrutiny of saint-makers TIiey should have kept Christopher and canned Chrysostom
The SeCOnd Vatican Council in a document intended to make amends to Jews exonerated them from being guilty of the crucishyfixion of Jesus and deplored antishySemitism in any form This gesshyture was undoubtedly seen by Jews as awfully late in coming And the message has failed to filter down to the masses
Catholic anti-Semites should be repudiated Any Catholic who looks down on Jews is a halfwit The anonymous poet put it well
How odd of God to choose the Jews
But not so odd as those who choose
A Jewish God but scorn the Jews
NCCW Continued from page one
note speaker Susim Muto execushytive director of the institute of Formative Spirituality at Dushyquesne University Pittsburgh suggested ways to transform the hopelessness of the world into a world of hope
She specified waiting praying and coping with the harshness of reality as conditions for carryshy
ing the vision of hope into the world and singled out three
women as signs of hope in themselves even though they have lived in conditions that could seem hopeless
The models were St Teresa of Avila Mother Teresa of Calshycutta and Mary With Mary we empty ourselves to be full of hope and become witnesses to the world said Ms Muto And we can pray with St Teresa of Avila whoever possesses God wants nothing - God alone sufshyfices
Convention workshops ex- plored a wide spectrum of issues including the bishops pastoral on war and peace moral medical decisions and todays Christian feminist

Spiritual directors of seminshyarians must be priests Laity and non-priest religious whether bull men or women are not to be appointed to this task Bishop Marshall wrote
The directive appears to go against the practice in some US seminaries Yhich include nuns or other non-priests among spiritual directors available to seminarians It also appears to go against recommendations made four years ago by a task force of the National Federation of Spiritual Directors which favored a role for women in the
C program of spiritual direction and formation of future priests

Bishop Marshalls letter was sent out Aug 6 with a study inshystrument to be used in reporting to the Vatican on the nations free-standing theological seminshyaries In free-standing seminshyaries academic and other forshymation programs are invited in a single institution
Seminary officials contacted about the letter stressed that it should be interpreted in its own context and in that of what American seminaries are actshyually doing
From their comments several themes emerged
- If any significant direct conflict between Vatican thinkshying and US practice is involved it appears to concern use if nonshypriests as spiritual directors of seminarians
- A second area of possible conflict could be the question of non-priests as seminary proshyfessors but it is not clear that When you rent a Home-Heating Burner from the Fall River there is a real conflict there

raised six children in the Cathshyolic Church and all were ecRumiddot cated in the Catholic school system Now that they are on their own all but one have joined or attend different deshynominations
Some of the children think smoking drinking and gambling are sinful and shun the ones who do these things although they do not show real animosity The family has diifted apart and ~he only time they see each other is when we invite them all over alt the same time _
My one son il constantly pressuring his father and me to attend IDs church We do not want to go but do not know how to tell him without creating hard feelings How do we handle this - Kentucky
Apparently every one of your children has a hunger for a spiritual me Like you I do not know wl)y they have sought difshyferent Christian communities to fulfill this need However they are adults now making their middotown adult choices And like the rest of us their spiritual journey is not complete
While you are not happy with their choices recognize that they lire not your doing or your fault You might also reflect that none )f them are indifferent to a piritual life
Drifting apart is typical of grown-up children Schooling jobs personal iJ1~erests marrishyage alld modern mobility lead ehildren away both physically nnd in spirit Parents remain the center that draws them back tomiddot gether You are already doing this by holding all-family gathershyings
Another way to keep adult (hildren in touch with each other is through letters Write Each child weekly regardless of whether the child responds to you If you cannot write to each individually WritE and distribute a family newsletter Photocopyshying machines are a boon to famishy
lies such as yours In your letter
include not only your own and your husbands news but also the doings of each grown child
Your son has joined another church He has found something that is important to him and he is eager to share it with you How wonderful that he takes his spiritual life so seriously and that he so loves and values the response of his parents that he wants you to come I do not know how you can resist such an important invitation
Christians share a belief in the teachings of Jesus and a conshyviction about the importance of family Churches are meant to enhance fa~ilies not to divide them

Long struggle related
By Anne Buckley
NEW YORK (NC) - For 10 years Dr Kevin Cahill did everyshything possible to keep his pashytient the late Cardinal Terence Cooke of New York functioning so that he could use every day to the maximum to serve the Lord CARDINAL COOKE
Those efforts continued until Cardinal Cookes death Oct 6 of cardinals bone marrow and red leukemia Cahill told Catholic and white blood cell system New York archdiocesan news- Cahill said paper revealing for the first time Thus came a period the physishythat during the last few months cian described as careful medishythe cardinal received chemoshy cal management including therapy in an effort to prolong blood transfusions at least once his life a month in the cardinals home
Careful to preserve his pashy and a constant watch for inshytients privacy Cahill issued only fections one statement before the carshy Hed be off to Korea after dinals death on his condition midnight Mass and everyone and treatment would say how rosy he looked
Published reports that Cardinal Sure he looked rosy hed just Cooke rejected chemotherapy been transfused the doctor prompted Cahills comments said
The cardinal received an ap- Then a change occurred ~in propriate program of chemo- earl~ August a unn~ry tract IDshy~herapy during the last few months in a continuing effort to prolong the productive life of a man who lived every minute of life CahiU said It was adshyministered in his home not only to insure his dignity and privacy for prayer but also to avoid inshyfections towhich he might have been exposed in a hospital
Cahill is convinced that the home treatment prolonged the cardinals life
The physician said that Carshydina Cooke meant what he said about the value of life even when accompanied by suffering
Ten years of my care were distilled in the last two months Cahill said saying Cardinal Cooke demonstrated true acshyceptance of suffering as a joyshyful part of life
The doctor and patient planshyned Cardinal Cookes treatment together During the more than 10 years when I cared for him he was the most cooperative pashytient always wanting the best medical advice and following whatever I asked him to do Cahill said It was always in complete and utter privacy so that illness would not take censhyter stage in the cardinals life Cahill said
The cardinal was hospitalized for cancer only twice some- 20 years ago when he had surgery for removal of tissue from his neck and in 1975 for removal of a lymphoma lesion from his mouth The rest of his treatment was administered in his home or Cahills office early in the mornshying or after regular patient hours
From 1975-79 there was intense chemotherapy daily medication and weekly injections accomshypanied ~y aU the side effects such as nausea and vomiting Cahill said
The chemotherapy killed the lymphoma but damaged the
fectlon and so~ethIDg el~e shyacute myeloblastic leukemia
The phase of 18-hour work days was over Cahill said Now the cardinal wanted to save his energy for prayer
At home the cardinal received everything that medicine could offer the doctor said Transshyfusions chemotherapy and other treatment continued
Painkillers were administered sparingly at the cardinals reshyquest because of the life he wanted Cahill said He wanted to stay prayerful and producshytive
Cahill said the cardinals apshyproach to terminal illness was
active acceptance of medical help in order to continue proshyductivity He said the cardinal wanted to give an example of courage to others who have to suffer to accept the full treatshyment available to them
He saw death as an inevitable part of life Not as something to be feared and not as something to be accepted passively as a dog rolling over Cahill said His death was absolutely total
Letters to Pope In other news of the late carshy
dinal the Vatican published on Oct 21 an unedited exchange of letters between him and Pope John Paul II in which the carshydinal implicitly offered his resigshynation as archbishop of New York because of his illness
The pope sidestepped the resigshynation offer thanked the carshydinal for his pastoral labors and promised his prayers during the cardinals illness
The cardinals offer was conshytained in an Aug 25 letter He said that due to the limitations caused by his illness he wanted to turn over the pastoral care of the archdiocese and of the Military Ordinate which he also headed to my collaborators with my encouragement
On the following day Aug 26 the Archdiocese of New York held a press conference to anshynounce that the 62-year-old carshydinal was suffering from acut~
leukemia was being cared for at home and couId die within a matter of months
The popes response dated Sept I told Cardinal Cooke of the spiritual closenesswhich he felt to the ~ardinal during his illness and thanked him for your fidelity to the wdrd of God for all your pastoral labors performed in love and suffering as well as for your personal friendship
I am sure middotthat your brothers and sisters and fellow-citizens in America will never forget all your efforts on behalf of life the right to life everyones right to life wrote the pope
Kissinger panel Continued from page one
of four American churchwomen was approved by the Senate Oct 20
The resolution sponsored by Sen Patrick J Leahy (D-Vt) does not threaten an end to US military aid But it urges appointshyment of the special prosecutor and asks that a trial in the case begin by this Dec 2 the third anniversary of the churchshywomens deaths
The measure passed by voice vote after one of its supporters Sen Frank R Lautenberg )shyNJ) said the current ambassashydor to El Salvador Thomas R Pickering supports appointment of the special prosecutor
Leahy said evidence in the case has been suppressed negshylected lost or destroyed
His resolution says vigorous prosecution of the case would promote criminal justice throughshyout El Salvador and encourage stronger pursuit of other murder cases including investigation into the death of Archbishop
Oscar Romero of San Salvador killed while celebrating Mass in March 1980
The four US churchwomen were killed Dec 2 1980 They were Maryknoll Sisters Ita Ford and Maura Clarke Ursuline Sisshyter Dorothy Kazel and lay misshysionary Jean Donovan
Five former Salvadoran Nashytional Guardsmen were arrested in May 1981 in connection with the deaths but their trials have been delayed several times

Attleboro church is 100 years old bull
For 100 years the faith has been lived in this parish said Bishop Daniel A Cronin in adshydressing members of St John the Evangelist Chur9h Attleboro as they celebrated its centennial at a Mass on Sept 25
From the first pastor Father John bullOConnell to the present Father Smith he continued children have been baptized reshyceived their first communion and been confirmed here
This is the Holy Year of Reshydemption and the redemptive graces won for us by Christ have been enjoyed by the people of St Johns for the past century
The celebration was an ocshycasion for looking back over the parish history which began in 1883 when Father OConnell was assigned by Bishop Thomas Hendricken of the Providence diocese which then Included the Fall River area to found a- parshyish in Attleboro
The first Mass was said Jan 6 1883 in Union Hall Attleshyboro but Father John as he was universally known soon organshyized fundraising efforts and on Sept 17 1883 the cornerstone w~s laid on North Main Street

for a building 10 feet long and 50 feet wide seating 700 pershysons It was dedicated Sept 22 1885
Father OConnell served his parish for 27 years before his sudden death shocked the city He was followed by Fath~r
David F Sheedy who served from 1910 to 1930 During his pastorate the parishioners doubled in number despite creashytion of two new parishes from the origimll St Johns
Upon his death th~ Attleboro Sun editorialized He never sought popularity but taught by precept and example the tenets of an unfaltering faith His disshycourses were plain and to the point his eloquence unvarnishmiddot ed eternalmiddot truths During his pastorate the major portion of the cost of the present day beaushytiful Gothic church was put aside
Father James M Quinn Recshytor of St Marys Cathedral was the next pastor appointed by Bishop Cassidy on June 29 1930 As a tribute to the new pastor a silent drive was made in the parish and enough money was rais~d to complete the building of a new church
The rie~ building was well under way when the old church was utterly destroyed by fire For several months thereafter Mass was celebrated at a nearby theater un~il the new church was dedicated Nov 6 1932 It is believed to be one of the finshyest examples Of Gothic archishytecture in America
For almost 17 years Father Quinn spent his strength for his people untilmiddot in May 1949 he felt that he could work no onge~ resigned his pastorate and died May 30 of the following year
In July 1950 Father John J Shay became St Johns fourth pastor During his term Boy Scouts were organized and parshy
ish societies reorganized but his major accomplishment was the construlttion of a new parochial school which opened in Septemshyber 1955 thereafter adding grades until by 1960 it offered a full eight-grade program with Sisters of Mercy as faculty memshybers
January 1958 saw celebration of St Johns 75th anniversary highlighted by a pageant preshysented by the schoolchildren and by activities of the parishs many organizations
In 1961 Father Shay passed away after an 11-year pastorate He was followed by Father Thomas F Walsh fondly reshymembered for the many parish social activities he encouraged as well as for his devotion to his flock
His pastorate of 11 years was _f0110wed by the three-year asshy
signment of Father HenryT Munroe tho was invested as a monsignor in 1974 A special event of the time was the celeshybration of St Johns 90th annishyversary in 1973 marked by a festive Mass and a dinner atshytended by J)early every living priest who had served in the parshyish
In 1975 the present pastor Very Rev J()hn J Smith came to St Johns where he combines his pastoral duties with those of the office of diocesan director of vocations and episcopal vicar of the Attieboro-Taunton deanery of the diocese He and the p~esent associate
Father Marc Tremblay share a delight in landscaping and beaushytifying the parish grounds In recognition of this the church this year received the Attleboro Gardeners Civic Beautification Award
Thus it is that parish life now entering its second century goes forward in an atmosphere 9f both physical and spiritual beauty

America and the Bible have always had an interesting relashytionship and this year Ive met many young people who want to learn more about this special pookbecause of its impact on US history
Theyve read of how the Bible formed American life through its influence on the earliest setshytiers In fact the influence beshygan befor~thecolonists came to these shores Most of them were Puritans and the Scriptures have been described as the practical and theoretical fountainhead of that movement
Biblical imagery provided the new nation with figuresof speech which have fomed the national consciousriess The titlesof more than 200 no~els and plays writshyten in the uS during a recent 10-year period for instance were taken from the Bible

During the summer I jotted down things people t(lld J me about their lives the failure of a marriage Smiddot friena~hip a busishyness many sorrows

Family Night A weekly at-home program for families
sponsored by the Dio~esan Office of Family Ministry
OPENING PRAYER Dear Father we praise and
thank you for the rainbow of beautiful people in our lives Help us to recognize the specialshyness of each one especially those in our own family Amen
ACTIVITY TIME People are like rainbows They
come in many colors and hues They come into our lives and while they are there they fill it with color and beauty
Young Family Have fun playing with bubbles
commercial or homemade Point out the rainbow of colors as the bubbles float through the air
Middle Years Family Rainbow Mobile Materials
crayons chalk construction paper string hanger Make a rainbow by cutting paper strips like arches Use different colors Each arch is suspended from a hanger by two pieces of string The lengths of string are a little longer each time Write the names of some of the new peoshyple teachers and friends you have met since the new school year began
Adult Family Read the biblical story of Joshy
Im just Im just no good he
said head bowed on hands eyes refusing to meet those of the adults gathered round to help him Ive never been any good he added after a pause I cant get good grades I cant run good so I cant make a team and look at qty face He raised his head and we dutifully viewshyed mild adolescent zits sprinkled here and there
Ill call him Tony age 15 a classic example of what we call a shame-based personality He was being counselled for drug experimentation and inability to communicate with his family
His family - thats another story It matched the billboard image of the good family of past definition - two parents upshywardly mobile intensely intershyested in rearing successful chilshydren and strong authoritarian Christians We had met with them end found them to be caring parents but their style of parenting hearkened back to the sad method of shaming and hushymiliating their children who didnt perform well in family school or sports
They couldnt accept Tonys natural limitations in school and athletics and instead under the guise of support pressured him to achieve the impossible If they pushed enough they were sure he would find the brains to be an A student and the muscles to make the team
seph and the Coat of Many Colors (Genesis Chapters 37shy47) Discuss the symbolism in the story and especially the family relationships fatherson brothersbrothers How do you deal with the dreams and aspirashytions of a family member How do you handle jealousies resentshyments achievements and honors that occur in family life
SNACK A jello desert in a rainbow of
colors would have to be preshypared ahead of time Rlinbow sherbet or neopolitan ice cream would also carry out the theme quite well
ENTERTAINMENT Divide the family into two
teams Give each team a feather and see which side can keep the feather in the air the longest time by blowing it
SHARING 1 Share something about the
middotrbullbullbullbull__middot -rbullbull7 __middotr-r no good
More sadly they failed to recognize his natural gifts which would have given him the selfshyesteem he was so tragically lackshying if they had been acknowshyledged and valued Tony had wonderful gifts He got along well with everyone (except his parents) He preferred cooperashytion to competition so he didnt play to win or try to outshine classmates He stepped in whenshyever someone bullied a weaker one He was a sensitive introsshypective young man with absoshylutely no self-worth - a prime candidate for drug abuse
Nine out of 10 young drug users have shame-based personshyalities Like Tony they view themselves as unworthy in a society that judges individuals by their achievement rather than their character The remaining one out of 10 has good selfshyesteem and views his or her drug use as a behavior whichmiddot needs correcting not evidence of provshying unworthiness
Tony needed help but his famshyily needed it first We had to work with his parents teaching them to help Tony to like himshyself and that was difficult beshycause while they loved him they werent proud of him He was an embarrassment to them beshycause he got C-minuses and didnt make any teams
His dads anguished question still rings in my ears How can you raise his self-esteem when he doesnt have ~nything to work
most beautiful person you know
2 Share a time when you were jealous of another family member
3 Share a time when you were really proud of someshyone in your family
CLOSING PRAYER -Join hands for spontaneous
prayer -Sugggested Prayer The
Prayer of St Francis Lord make me an instrument
of your peace Where there is hatred let me
sow love where there is injury pardon where there is doubt faith where there is despair hope where there is darkness light o Divine Master grant that I may not so much
seek to be consoled as to console
to be understood as to under- stand
to be loved as to love For it is in giving that we
receive it is in pardoning that we are
pardoned and it is in dying that we are
born to eternal life Amen

on He glimpsed little value in the strengths I listed above He says only class rank awards and trophies are criteria
I meet Tonys parents everyshywhere They want to know how to recognize and value special gifts in children that werent valued when they were children I begin by listing gifts to look for and encouraging them to praise their children for these is your child a peacemaker Does he care about others Is he pleasant to be around Is he good at fiXing things Does he have a humor that defuses famshyily tension Does he enjoy solishytude Does he have a strong sense of fairness Does he help others knowing he wont get any credit for it Does he have a good memory filling in details the family has forgotten Is he a good listener even if he doesnt want to talk or argue
Im happy to report that Tonys parents are starting to affirm these qualities and are having limited success They realize they were trying to change him into something he isnt and theyre seeing an improved self-accepshytance as a worthwhile person
THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Fri Ocl 28 1983
We are spiritual Semites
Rabbi Marc Tanenbaum of the American Jewish Committee tells a good story about a pope and a rabbi The pope in the story is John XXIII The rabbis name escapes me In any event as Rabbi Tanenbaum relates it the pope and the rabbi had just concluded a discussion of matters of mutual interest and were moving from a sitting room into an adjoining room for lunch when an amiable difference of opinion arose beshytween them as to who should precede whom through the doorshyway
You first rabbi the pope inshysisted genially
Oh no after you Your Holishyness the rabbi replied deferenshytially
This stand-off continued with elaborate bowing and gesturing Finally Pope John took the rabbi firmly by the arm gently pushed him through the doorshyway first and proclaimed with affable finality The Old Testashyment before the New Testashymentl
It was a wonderful remark on several levels It was witty it was wise it was welcoming The Old Testament before the New Testament We are all spiritual Semites Christianity descended from Judaism Jesus was a Jew
One day a while ago I was riding the bus to work An acshyquaintance who never misses Sunday Mass sat beside me We were reading our newspapers He happened upon an item about an upcoming TV program devoted to the Holocaust Look at this he said sneering Just what we need - another proshygram about the Holocaust
-I said nothing because I hate
scenes but the remark infuriated me I suppose I have heard 100 similar snide remarks out of the mouths of Catholics over the years My impression is that antiSemitism is widespread if not quite epidemic among Cathshyolics
Jesus was a devout Jew and yet Catholics are notorious for making disparaging remarks about Jews Why in the name of God would Catholics abuse Jews
No good reason Bigotry is unshyreasonable Anti-Semitism was entrenched in the Church for so long that official statements in recent decades disavowing it have failed to eliminate it Since the third century certain soshycalled churchmen have insisted on blaming Jews for the crucishyfixion Of Jesus There is a mindshyless inane perverse aspect to this After all Jesus was a Jew who lived among Jews His friends and his enemies were Jews To blame his crucifixion on Jews is about as rational as blaming the assassinations of Presidents Lincoln and Kennedy

on Americans It is just plain senseless
And yet it persisted for censhyturies St John Chrysostom who was declared patron of preachers by Pope Pius X in 1909 was a virulent anti-Semite He said in a sermon Brothel and theater the synagogue is also a cave of pirates and lair of wild beasts This fifth-century sermon conshytinues with the outpouring of vile anti-Semitism too terrible to repeat Reading his hateful reshymarks I wonder -that Chrysoshytom survived the scrutiny of saint-makers TIiey should have kept Christopher and canned Chrysostom
The SeCOnd Vatican Council in a document intended to make amends to Jews exonerated them from being guilty of the crucishyfixion of Jesus and deplored antishySemitism in any form This gesshyture was undoubtedly seen by Jews as awfully late in coming And the message has failed to filter down to the masses
Catholic anti-Semites should be repudiated Any Catholic who looks down on Jews is a halfwit The anonymous poet put it well
How odd of God to choose the Jews
But not so odd as those who choose
A Jewish God but scorn the Jews
NCCW Continued from page one
note speaker Susim Muto execushytive director of the institute of Formative Spirituality at Dushyquesne University Pittsburgh suggested ways to transform the hopelessness of the world into a world of hope
She specified waiting praying and coping with the harshness of reality as conditions for carryshy
ing the vision of hope into the world and singled out three
women as signs of hope in themselves even though they have lived in conditions that could seem hopeless
The models were St Teresa of Avila Mother Teresa of Calshycutta and Mary With Mary we empty ourselves to be full of hope and become witnesses to the world said Ms Muto And we can pray with St Teresa of Avila whoever possesses God wants nothing - God alone sufshyfices
Convention workshops ex- plored a wide spectrum of issues including the bishops pastoral on war and peace moral medical decisions and todays Christian feminist

Spiritual directors of seminshyarians must be priests Laity and non-priest religious whether bull men or women are not to be appointed to this task Bishop Marshall wrote
The directive appears to go against the practice in some US seminaries Yhich include nuns or other non-priests among spiritual directors available to seminarians It also appears to go against recommendations made four years ago by a task force of the National Federation of Spiritual Directors which favored a role for women in the

Seminary officials contacted about the letter stressed that it should be interpreted in its own context and in that of what American seminaries are actshyually doing
From their comments several themes emerged
- If any significant direct conflict between Vatican thinkshying and US practice is involved it appears to concern use if nonshypriests as spiritual directors of seminarians
- A second area of possible conflict could be the question of non-priests as seminary proshyfessors but it is not clear that When you rent a Home-Heating Burner from the Fall River there is a real conflict there

By Dr James aDd Mary Kenny Dear Mary My husband and I
raised six children in the Cathshyolic Church and all were ecRumiddot cated in the Catholic school system Now that they are on their own all but one have joined or attend different deshynominations
Some of the children think smoking drinking and gambling are sinful and shun the ones who do these things although they do not show real animosity The family has diifted apart and ~he only time they see each other is when we invite them all over alt the same time _
My one son il constantly pressuring his father and me to attend IDs church We do not want to go but do not know how to tell him without creating hard feelings How do we handle this - Kentucky
Apparently every one of your children has a hunger for a spiritual me Like you I do not know wl)y they have sought difshyferent Christian communities to fulfill this need However they are adults now making their middotown adult choices And like the rest of us their spiritual journey is not complete
While you are not happy with their choices recognize that they lire not your doing or your fault You might also reflect that none )f them are indifferent to a piritual life
Drifting apart is typical of grown-up children Schooling jobs personal iJ1~erests marrishyage alld modern mobility lead ehildren away both physically nnd in spirit Parents remain the center that draws them back tomiddot gether You are already doing this by holding all-family gathershyings
Another way to keep adult (hildren in touch with each other is through letters Write Each child weekly regardless of whether the child responds to you If you cannot write to each individually WritE and distribute a family newsletter Photocopyshying machines are a boon to famishy
lies such as yours In your letter
include not only your own and your husbands news but also the doings of each grown child
Your son has joined another church He has found something that is important to him and he is eager to share it with you How wonderful that he takes his spiritual life so seriously and that he so loves and values the response of his parents that he wants you to come I do not know how you can resist such an important invitation
Christians share a belief in the teachings of Jesus and a conshyviction about the importance of family Churches are meant to enhance fa~ilies not to divide them

Long struggle related
By Anne Buckley
NEW YORK (NC) - For 10 years Dr Kevin Cahill did everyshything possible to keep his pashytient the late Cardinal Terence Cooke of New York functioning so that he could use every day to the maximum to serve the Lord CARDINAL COOKE
Those efforts continued until Cardinal Cookes death Oct 6 of cardinals bone marrow and red leukemia Cahill told Catholic and white blood cell system New York archdiocesan news- Cahill said paper revealing for the first time Thus came a period the physishythat during the last few months cian described as careful medishythe cardinal received chemoshy cal management including therapy in an effort to prolong blood transfusions at least once his life a month in the cardinals home
Careful to preserve his pashy and a constant watch for inshytients privacy Cahill issued only fections one statement before the carshy Hed be off to Korea after dinals death on his condition midnight Mass and everyone and treatment would say how rosy he looked
Published reports that Cardinal Sure he looked rosy hed just Cooke rejected chemotherapy been transfused the doctor prompted Cahills comments said
The cardinal received an ap- Then a change occurred ~in propriate program of chemo- earl~ August a unn~ry tract IDshy~herapy during the last few months in a continuing effort to prolong the productive life of a man who lived every minute of life CahiU said It was adshyministered in his home not only to insure his dignity and privacy for prayer but also to avoid inshyfections towhich he might have been exposed in a hospital
Cahill is convinced that the home treatment prolonged the cardinals life
The physician said that Carshydina Cooke meant what he said about the value of life even when accompanied by suffering
Ten years of my care were distilled in the last two months Cahill said saying Cardinal Cooke demonstrated true acshyceptance of suffering as a joyshyful part of life
The doctor and patient planshyned Cardinal Cookes treatment together During the more than 10 years when I cared for him he was the most cooperative pashytient always wanting the best medical advice and following whatever I asked him to do Cahill said It was always in complete and utter privacy so that illness would not take censhyter stage in the cardinals life Cahill said
The cardinal was hospitalized for cancer only twice some- 20 years ago when he had surgery for removal of tissue from his neck and in 1975 for removal of a lymphoma lesion from his mouth The rest of his treatment was administered in his home or Cahills office early in the mornshying or after regular patient hours
From 1975-79 there was intense chemotherapy daily medication and weekly injections accomshypanied ~y aU the side effects such as nausea and vomiting Cahill said
The chemotherapy killed the lymphoma but damaged the
fectlon and so~ethIDg el~e shyacute myeloblastic leukemia
The phase of 18-hour work days was over Cahill said Now the cardinal wanted to save his energy for prayer
At home the cardinal received everything that medicine could offer the doctor said Transshyfusions chemotherapy and other treatment continued
Painkillers were administered sparingly at the cardinals reshyquest because of the life he wanted Cahill said He wanted to stay prayerful and producshytive
Cahill said the cardinals apshyproach to terminal illness was
active acceptance of medical help in order to continue proshyductivity He said the cardinal wanted to give an example of courage to others who have to suffer to accept the full treatshyment available to them
He saw death as an inevitable part of life Not as something to be feared and not as something to be accepted passively as a dog rolling over Cahill said His death was absolutely total
Letters to Pope In other news of the late carshy
dinal the Vatican published on Oct 21 an unedited exchange of letters between him and Pope John Paul II in which the carshydinal implicitly offered his resigshynation as archbishop of New York because of his illness
The pope sidestepped the resigshynation offer thanked the carshydinal for his pastoral labors and promised his prayers during the cardinals illness
The cardinals offer was conshytained in an Aug 25 letter He said that due to the limitations caused by his illness he wanted to turn over the pastoral care of the archdiocese and of the Military Ordinate which he also headed to my collaborators with my encouragement
On the following day Aug 26 the Archdiocese of New York held a press conference to anshynounce that the 62-year-old carshydinal was suffering from acut~
leukemia was being cared for at home and couId die within a matter of months
The popes response dated Sept I told Cardinal Cooke of the spiritual closenesswhich he felt to the ~ardinal during his illness and thanked him for your fidelity to the wdrd of God for all your pastoral labors performed in love and suffering as well as for your personal friendship
I am sure middotthat your brothers and sisters and fellow-citizens in America will never forget all your efforts on behalf of life the right to life everyones right to life wrote the pope
Kissinger panel Continued from page one
of four American churchwomen was approved by the Senate Oct 20
The resolution sponsored by Sen Patrick J Leahy (D-Vt) does not threaten an end to US military aid But it urges appointshyment of the special prosecutor and asks that a trial in the case begin by this Dec 2 the third anniversary of the churchshywomens deaths
The measure passed by voice vote after one of its supporters Sen Frank R Lautenberg )shyNJ) said the current ambassashydor to El Salvador Thomas R Pickering supports appointment of the special prosecutor
Leahy said evidence in the case has been suppressed negshylected lost or destroyed
His resolution says vigorous prosecution of the case would promote criminal justice throughshyout El Salvador and encourage stronger pursuit of other murder cases including investigation into the death of Archbishop
Oscar Romero of San Salvador killed while celebrating Mass in March 1980
The four US churchwomen were killed Dec 2 1980 They were Maryknoll Sisters Ita Ford and Maura Clarke Ursuline Sisshyter Dorothy Kazel and lay misshysionary Jean Donovan
Five former Salvadoran Nashytional Guardsmen were arrested in May 1981 in connection with the deaths but their trials have been delayed several times

Attleboro church is 100 years old bull
For 100 years the faith has been lived in this parish said Bishop Daniel A Cronin in adshydressing members of St John the Evangelist Chur9h Attleboro as they celebrated its centennial at a Mass on Sept 25
From the first pastor Father John bullOConnell to the present Father Smith he continued children have been baptized reshyceived their first communion and been confirmed here
This is the Holy Year of Reshydemption and the redemptive graces won for us by Christ have been enjoyed by the people of St Johns for the past century
The celebration was an ocshycasion for looking back over the parish history which began in 1883 when Father OConnell was assigned by Bishop Thomas Hendricken of the Providence diocese which then Included the Fall River area to found a- parshyish in Attleboro
The first Mass was said Jan 6 1883 in Union Hall Attleshyboro but Father John as he was universally known soon organshyized fundraising efforts and on Sept 17 1883 the cornerstone w~s laid on North Main Street

for a building 10 feet long and 50 feet wide seating 700 pershysons It was dedicated Sept 22 1885
Father OConnell served his parish for 27 years before his sudden death shocked the city He was followed by Fath~r
David F Sheedy who served from 1910 to 1930 During his pastorate the parishioners doubled in number despite creashytion of two new parishes from the origimll St Johns
Upon his death th~ Attleboro Sun editorialized He never sought popularity but taught by precept and example the tenets of an unfaltering faith His disshycourses were plain and to the point his eloquence unvarnishmiddot ed eternalmiddot truths During his pastorate the major portion of the cost of the present day beaushytiful Gothic church was put aside
Father James M Quinn Recshytor of St Marys Cathedral was the next pastor appointed by Bishop Cassidy on June 29 1930 As a tribute to the new pastor a silent drive was made in the parish and enough money was rais~d to complete the building of a new church
The rie~ building was well under way when the old church was utterly destroyed by fire For several months thereafter Mass was celebrated at a nearby theater un~il the new church was dedicated Nov 6 1932 It is believed to be one of the finshyest examples Of Gothic archishytecture in America
For almost 17 years Father Quinn spent his strength for his people untilmiddot in May 1949 he felt that he could work no onge~ resigned his pastorate and died May 30 of the following year
In July 1950 Father John J Shay became St Johns fourth pastor During his term Boy Scouts were organized and parshy
ish societies reorganized but his major accomplishment was the construlttion of a new parochial school which opened in Septemshyber 1955 thereafter adding grades until by 1960 it offered a full eight-grade program with Sisters of Mercy as faculty memshybers
January 1958 saw celebration of St Johns 75th anniversary highlighted by a pageant preshysented by the schoolchildren and by activities of the parishs many organizations
In 1961 Father Shay passed away after an 11-year pastorate He was followed by Father Thomas F Walsh fondly reshymembered for the many parish social activities he encouraged as well as for his devotion to his flock
His pastorate of 11 years was _f0110wed by the three-year asshy
signment of Father HenryT Munroe tho was invested as a monsignor in 1974 A special event of the time was the celeshybration of St Johns 90th annishyversary in 1973 marked by a festive Mass and a dinner atshytended by J)early every living priest who had served in the parshyish
In 1975 the present pastor Very Rev J()hn J Smith came to St Johns where he combines his pastoral duties with those of the office of diocesan director of vocations and episcopal vicar of the Attieboro-Taunton deanery of the diocese He and the p~esent associate
Father Marc Tremblay share a delight in landscaping and beaushytifying the parish grounds In recognition of this the church this year received the Attleboro Gardeners Civic Beautification Award
Thus it is that parish life now entering its second century goes forward in an atmosphere 9f both physical and spiritual beauty

Spiritual directors of seminshyarians must be priests Laity and non-priest religious whether bull men or women are not to be appointed to this task Bishop Marshall wrote
The directive appears to go against the practice in some US seminaries Yhich include nuns or other non-priests among spiritual directors available to seminarians It also appears to go against recommendations made four years ago by a task force of the National Federation of Spiritual Directors which favored a role for women in the

Bishop Marshalls letter was sent out Aug 6 with a study inshystrument to be used in reporting to the Vatican on the nations free-standing theological seminshyaries In free-standing seminshyaries academic and other forshymation programs are invited in a single institution
Seminary officials contacted about the letter stressed that it should be interpreted in its own context and in that of what American seminaries are actshyually doing
From their comments several themes emerged
- If any significant direct conflict between Vatican thinkshying and US practice is involved it appears to concern use if nonshypriests as spiritual directors of seminarians
- A second area of possible conflict could be the question of non-priests as seminary proshyfessors but it is not clear that When you rent a Home-Heating Burner from the Fall River there is a real conflict there

raised six children in the Cathshyolic Church and all were ecRumiddot cated in the Catholic school system Now that they are on their own all but one have joined or attend different deshynominations
Some of the children think smoking drinking and gambling are sinful and shun the ones who do these things although they do not show real animosity The family has diifted apart and ~he only time they see each other is when we invite them all over alt the same time _
My one son il constantly pressuring his father and me to attend IDs church We do not want to go but do not know how to tell him without creating hard feelings How do we handle this - Kentucky
Apparently every one of your children has a hunger for a spiritual me Like you I do not know wl)y they have sought difshyferent Christian communities to fulfill this need However they are adults now making their middotown adult choices And like the rest of us their spiritual journey is not complete
While you are not happy with their choices recognize that they lire not your doing or your fault You might also reflect that none )f them are indifferent to a piritual life
Drifting apart is typical of grown-up children Schooling jobs personal iJ1~erests marrishyage alld modern mobility lead ehildren away both physically nnd in spirit Parents remain the center that draws them back tomiddot gether You are already doing this by holding all-family gathershyings
Another way to keep adult (hildren in touch with each other is through letters Write Each child weekly regardless of whether the child responds to you If you cannot write to each individually WritE and distribute a family newsletter Photocopyshying machines are a boon to famishy
lies such as yours In your letter
include not only your own and your husbands news but also the doings of each grown child
Your son has joined another church He has found something that is important to him and he is eager to share it with you How wonderful that he takes his spiritual life so seriously and that he so loves and values the response of his parents that he wants you to come I do not know how you can resist such an important invitation
Christians share a belief in the teachings of Jesus and a conshyviction about the importance of family Churches are meant to enhance fa~ilies not to divide them

Long struggle related
By Anne Buckley
NEW YORK (NC) - For 10 years Dr Kevin Cahill did everyshything possible to keep his pashytient the late Cardinal Terence Cooke of New York functioning so that he could use every day to the maximum to serve the Lord CARDINAL COOKE
Those efforts continued until Cardinal Cookes death Oct 6 of cardinals bone marrow and red leukemia Cahill told Catholic and white blood cell system New York archdiocesan news- Cahill said paper revealing for the first time Thus came a period the physishythat during the last few months cian described as careful medishythe cardinal received chemoshy cal management including therapy in an effort to prolong blood transfusions at least once his life a month in the cardinals home
Careful to preserve his pashy and a constant watch for inshytients privacy Cahill issued only fections one statement before the carshy Hed be off to Korea after dinals death on his condition midnight Mass and everyone and treatment would say how rosy he looked
Published reports that Cardinal Sure he looked rosy hed just Cooke rejected chemotherapy been transfused the doctor prompted Cahills comments said
The cardinal received an ap- Then a change occurred ~in propriate program of chemo- earl~ August a unn~ry tract IDshy~herapy during the last few months in a continuing effort to prolong the productive life of a man who lived every minute of life CahiU said It was adshyministered in his home not only to insure his dignity and privacy for prayer but also to avoid inshyfections towhich he might have been exposed in a hospital
Cahill is convinced that the home treatment prolonged the cardinals life
The physician said that Carshydina Cooke meant what he said about the value of life even when accompanied by suffering
Ten years of my care were distilled in the last two months Cahill said saying Cardinal Cooke demonstrated true acshyceptance of suffering as a joyshyful part of life
The doctor and patient planshyned Cardinal Cookes treatment together During the more than 10 years when I cared for him he was the most cooperative pashytient always wanting the best medical advice and following whatever I asked him to do Cahill said It was always in complete and utter privacy so that illness would not take censhyter stage in the cardinals life Cahill said
The cardinal was hospitalized for cancer only twice some- 20 years ago when he had surgery for removal of tissue from his neck and in 1975 for removal of a lymphoma lesion from his mouth The rest of his treatment was administered in his home or Cahills office early in the mornshying or after regular patient hours
From 1975-79 there was intense chemotherapy daily medication and weekly injections accomshypanied ~y aU the side effects such as nausea and vomiting Cahill said
The chemotherapy killed the lymphoma but damaged the
fectlon and so~ethIDg el~e shyacute myeloblastic leukemia
The phase of 18-hour work days was over Cahill said Now the cardinal wanted to save his energy for prayer
At home the cardinal received everything that medicine could offer the doctor said Transshyfusions chemotherapy and other treatment continued
Painkillers were administered sparingly at the cardinals reshyquest because of the life he wanted Cahill said He wanted to stay prayerful and producshytive
Cahill said the cardinals apshyproach to terminal illness was
active acceptance of medical help in order to continue proshyductivity He said the cardinal wanted to give an example of courage to others who have to suffer to accept the full treatshyment available to them
He saw death as an inevitable part of life Not as something to be feared and not as something to be accepted passively as a dog rolling over Cahill said His death was absolutely total
Letters to Pope In other news of the late carshy
dinal the Vatican published on Oct 21 an unedited exchange of letters between him and Pope John Paul II in which the carshydinal implicitly offered his resigshynation as archbishop of New York because of his illness
The pope sidestepped the resigshynation offer thanked the carshydinal for his pastoral labors and promised his prayers during the cardinals illness
The cardinals offer was conshytained in an Aug 25 letter He said that due to the limitations caused by his illness he wanted to turn over the pastoral care of the archdiocese and of the Military Ordinate which he also headed to my collaborators with my encouragement
On the following day Aug 26 the Archdiocese of New York held a press conference to anshynounce that the 62-year-old carshydinal was suffering from acut~
leukemia was being cared for at home and couId die within a matter of months
The popes response dated Sept I told Cardinal Cooke of the spiritual closenesswhich he felt to the ~ardinal during his illness and thanked him for your fidelity to the wdrd of God for all your pastoral labors performed in love and suffering as well as for your personal friendship
I am sure middotthat your brothers and sisters and fellow-citizens in America will never forget all your efforts on behalf of life the right to life everyones right to life wrote the pope
Kissinger panel Continued from page one
of four American churchwomen was approved by the Senate Oct 20
The resolution sponsored by Sen Patrick J Leahy (D-Vt) does not threaten an end to US military aid But it urges appointshyment of the special prosecutor and asks that a trial in the case begin by this Dec 2 the third anniversary of the churchshywomens deaths
The measure passed by voice vote after one of its supporters Sen Frank R Lautenberg )shyNJ) said the current ambassashydor to El Salvador Thomas R Pickering supports appointment of the special prosecutor
Leahy said evidence in the case has been suppressed negshylected lost or destroyed
His resolution says vigorous prosecution of the case would promote criminal justice throughshyout El Salvador and encourage stronger pursuit of other murder cases including investigation into the death of Archbishop

Attleboro church is 100 years old bull
For 100 years the faith has been lived in this parish said Bishop Daniel A Cronin in adshydressing members of St John the Evangelist Chur9h Attleboro as they celebrated its centennial at a Mass on Sept 25
From the first pastor Father John bullOConnell to the present Father Smith he continued children have been baptized reshyceived their first communion and been confirmed here
This is the Holy Year of Reshydemption and the redemptive graces won for us by Christ have been enjoyed by the people of St Johns for the past century
The celebration was an ocshycasion for looking back over the parish history which began in 1883 when Father OConnell was assigned by Bishop Thomas Hendricken of the Providence diocese which then Included the Fall River area to found a- parshyish in Attleboro
The first Mass was said Jan 6 1883 in Union Hall Attleshyboro but Father John as he was universally known soon organshyized fundraising efforts and on Sept 17 1883 the cornerstone w~s laid on North Main Street

for a building 10 feet long and 50 feet wide seating 700 pershysons It was dedicated Sept 22 1885
Father OConnell served his parish for 27 years before his sudden death shocked the city He was followed by Fath~r
David F Sheedy who served from 1910 to 1930 During his pastorate the parishioners doubled in number despite creashytion of two new parishes from the origimll St Johns
Upon his death th~ Attleboro Sun editorialized He never sought popularity but taught by precept and example the tenets of an unfaltering faith His disshycourses were plain and to the point his eloquence unvarnishmiddot ed eternalmiddot truths During his pastorate the major portion of the cost of the present day beaushytiful Gothic church was put aside
Father James M Quinn Recshytor of St Marys Cathedral was the next pastor appointed by Bishop Cassidy on June 29 1930 As a tribute to the new pastor a silent drive was made in the parish and enough money was rais~d to complete the building of a new church
The rie~ building was well under way when the old church was utterly destroyed by fire For several months thereafter Mass was celebrated at a nearby theater un~il the new church was dedicated Nov 6 1932 It is believed to be one of the finshyest examples Of Gothic archishytecture in America
For almost 17 years Father Quinn spent his strength for his people untilmiddot in May 1949 he felt that he could work no onge~ resigned his pastorate and died May 30 of the following year
In July 1950 Father John J Shay became St Johns fourth pastor During his term Boy Scouts were organized and parshy
ish societies reorganized but his major accomplishment was the construlttion of a new parochial school which opened in Septemshyber 1955 thereafter adding grades until by 1960 it offered a full eight-grade program with Sisters of Mercy as faculty memshybers
January 1958 saw celebration of St Johns 75th anniversary highlighted by a pageant preshysented by the schoolchildren and by activities of the parishs many organizations
In 1961 Father Shay passed away after an 11-year pastorate He was followed by Father Thomas F Walsh fondly reshymembered for the many parish social activities he encouraged as well as for his devotion to his flock
His pastorate of 11 years was _f0110wed by the three-year asshy
signment of Father HenryT Munroe tho was invested as a monsignor in 1974 A special event of the time was the celeshybration of St Johns 90th annishyversary in 1973 marked by a festive Mass and a dinner atshytended by J)early every living priest who had served in the parshyish
In 1975 the present pastor Very Rev J()hn J Smith came to St Johns where he combines his pastoral duties with those of the office of diocesan director of vocations and episcopal vicar of the Attieboro-Taunton deanery of the diocese He and the p~esent associate
Father Marc Tremblay share a delight in landscaping and beaushytifying the parish grounds In recognition of this the church this year received the Attleboro Gardeners Civic Beautification Award
Thus it is that parish life now entering its second century goes forward in an atmosphere 9f both physical and spiritual beauty

America and the Bible have always had an interesting relashytionship and this year Ive met many young people who want to learn more about this special pookbecause of its impact on US history
Theyve read of how the Bible formed American life through its influence on the earliest setshytiers In fact the influence beshygan befor~thecolonists came to these shores Most of them were Puritans and the Scriptures have been described as the practical and theoretical fountainhead of that movement
Biblical imagery provided the new nation with figuresof speech which have fomed the national consciousriess The titlesof more than 200 no~els and plays writshyten in the uS during a recent 10-year period for instance were taken from the Bible

Spiritual directors of seminshyarians must be priests Laity and non-priest religious whether bull men or women are not to be appointed to this task Bishop Marshall wrote
The directive appears to go against the practice in some US seminaries Yhich include nuns or other non-priests among spiritual directors available to seminarians It also appears to go against recommendations made four years ago by a task force of the National Federation of Spiritual Directors which favored a role for women in the
C program of spiritual direction and formation of future priests
Bishop Marshalls letter also said that the Vatican Congregashy Beginning November 1 1983 The Fall River Gas Company tion for Catholic Education which is responsible for seminary can save you quite a bit of money if you convert to Gas Heat training holds that students because gas will be selling at t~e equivalent of 80c oil underother than seminarians are not

Bishop Marshalls letter was sent out Aug 6 with a study inshystrument to be used in reporting to the Vatican on the nations free-standing theological seminshyaries In free-standing seminshyaries academic and other forshymation programs are invited in a single institution
Seminary officials contacted about the letter stressed that it should be interpreted in its own context and in that of what American seminaries are actshyually doing
From their comments several themes emerged
- If any significant direct conflict between Vatican thinkshying and US practice is involved it appears to concern use if nonshypriests as spiritual directors of seminarians
- A second area of possible conflict could be the question of non-priests as seminary proshyfessors but it is not clear that When you rent a Home-Heating Burner from the Fall River there is a real conflict there

raised six children in the Cathshyolic Church and all were ecRumiddot cated in the Catholic school system Now that they are on their own all but one have joined or attend different deshynominations
Some of the children think smoking drinking and gambling are sinful and shun the ones who do these things although they do not show real animosity The family has diifted apart and ~he only time they see each other is when we invite them all over alt the same time _
My one son il constantly pressuring his father and me to attend IDs church We do not want to go but do not know how to tell him without creating hard feelings How do we handle this - Kentucky
Apparently every one of your children has a hunger for a spiritual me Like you I do not know wl)y they have sought difshyferent Christian communities to fulfill this need However they are adults now making their middotown adult choices And like the rest of us their spiritual journey is not complete
While you are not happy with their choices recognize that they lire not your doing or your fault You might also reflect that none )f them are indifferent to a piritual life
Drifting apart is typical of grown-up children Schooling jobs personal iJ1~erests marrishyage alld modern mobility lead ehildren away both physically nnd in spirit Parents remain the center that draws them back tomiddot gether You are already doing this by holding all-family gathershyings
Another way to keep adult (hildren in touch with each other is through letters Write Each child weekly regardless of whether the child responds to you If you cannot write to each individually WritE and distribute a family newsletter Photocopyshying machines are a boon to famishy
lies such as yours In your letter
include not only your own and your husbands news but also the doings of each grown child
Your son has joined another church He has found something that is important to him and he is eager to share it with you How wonderful that he takes his spiritual life so seriously and that he so loves and values the response of his parents that he wants you to come I do not know how you can resist such an important invitation
Christians share a belief in the teachings of Jesus and a conshyviction about the importance of family Churches are meant to enhance fa~ilies not to divide them

Long struggle related
By Anne Buckley
NEW YORK (NC) - For 10 years Dr Kevin Cahill did everyshything possible to keep his pashytient the late Cardinal Terence Cooke of New York functioning so that he could use every day to the maximum to serve the Lord CARDINAL COOKE
Those efforts continued until Cardinal Cookes death Oct 6 of cardinals bone marrow and red leukemia Cahill told Catholic and white blood cell system New York archdiocesan news- Cahill said paper revealing for the first time Thus came a period the physishythat during the last few months cian described as careful medishythe cardinal received chemoshy cal management including therapy in an effort to prolong blood transfusions at least once his life a month in the cardinals home
Careful to preserve his pashy and a constant watch for inshytients privacy Cahill issued only fections one statement before the carshy Hed be off to Korea after dinals death on his condition midnight Mass and everyone and treatment would say how rosy he looked
Published reports that Cardinal Sure he looked rosy hed just Cooke rejected chemotherapy been transfused the doctor prompted Cahills comments said
The cardinal received an ap- Then a change occurred ~in propriate program of chemo- earl~ August a unn~ry tract IDshy~herapy during the last few months in a continuing effort to prolong the productive life of a man who lived every minute of life CahiU said It was adshyministered in his home not only to insure his dignity and privacy for prayer but also to avoid inshyfections towhich he might have been exposed in a hospital
Cahill is convinced that the home treatment prolonged the cardinals life
The physician said that Carshydina Cooke meant what he said about the value of life even when accompanied by suffering
Ten years of my care were distilled in the last two months Cahill said saying Cardinal Cooke demonstrated true acshyceptance of suffering as a joyshyful part of life
The doctor and patient planshyned Cardinal Cookes treatment together During the more than 10 years when I cared for him he was the most cooperative pashytient always wanting the best medical advice and following whatever I asked him to do Cahill said It was always in complete and utter privacy so that illness would not take censhyter stage in the cardinals life Cahill said
The cardinal was hospitalized for cancer only twice some- 20 years ago when he had surgery for removal of tissue from his neck and in 1975 for removal of a lymphoma lesion from his mouth The rest of his treatment was administered in his home or Cahills office early in the mornshying or after regular patient hours
From 1975-79 there was intense chemotherapy daily medication and weekly injections accomshypanied ~y aU the side effects such as nausea and vomiting Cahill said
The chemotherapy killed the lymphoma but damaged the
fectlon and so~ethIDg el~e shyacute myeloblastic leukemia
The phase of 18-hour work days was over Cahill said Now the cardinal wanted to save his energy for prayer
At home the cardinal received everything that medicine could offer the doctor said Transshyfusions chemotherapy and other treatment continued
Painkillers were administered sparingly at the cardinals reshyquest because of the life he wanted Cahill said He wanted to stay prayerful and producshytive
Cahill said the cardinals apshyproach to terminal illness was
active acceptance of medical help in order to continue proshyductivity He said the cardinal wanted to give an example of courage to others who have to suffer to accept the full treatshyment available to them
He saw death as an inevitable part of life Not as something to be feared and not as something to be accepted passively as a dog rolling over Cahill said His death was absolutely total
Letters to Pope In other news of the late carshy
dinal the Vatican published on Oct 21 an unedited exchange of letters between him and Pope John Paul II in which the carshydinal implicitly offered his resigshynation as archbishop of New York because of his illness
The pope sidestepped the resigshynation offer thanked the carshydinal for his pastoral labors and promised his prayers during the cardinals illness
The cardinals offer was conshytained in an Aug 25 letter He said that due to the limitations caused by his illness he wanted to turn over the pastoral care of the archdiocese and of the Military Ordinate which he also headed to my collaborators with my encouragement
On the following day Aug 26 the Archdiocese of New York held a press conference to anshynounce that the 62-year-old carshydinal was suffering from acut~
leukemia was being cared for at home and couId die within a matter of months
The popes response dated Sept I told Cardinal Cooke of the spiritual closenesswhich he felt to the ~ardinal during his illness and thanked him for your fidelity to the wdrd of God for all your pastoral labors performed in love and suffering as well as for your personal friendship
I am sure middotthat your brothers and sisters and fellow-citizens in America will never forget all your efforts on behalf of life the right to life everyones right to life wrote the pope
Kissinger panel Continued from page one
of four American churchwomen was approved by the Senate Oct 20
The resolution sponsored by Sen Patrick J Leahy (D-Vt) does not threaten an end to US military aid But it urges appointshyment of the special prosecutor and asks that a trial in the case begin by this Dec 2 the third anniversary of the churchshywomens deaths
The measure passed by voice vote after one of its supporters Sen Frank R Lautenberg )shyNJ) said the current ambassashydor to El Salvador Thomas R Pickering supports appointment of the special prosecutor
Leahy said evidence in the case has been suppressed negshylected lost or destroyed
His resolution says vigorous prosecution of the case would promote criminal justice throughshyout El Salvador and encourage stronger pursuit of other murder cases including investigation into the death of Archbishop
Oscar Romero of San Salvador killed while celebrating Mass in March 1980
The four US churchwomen were killed Dec 2 1980 They were Maryknoll Sisters Ita Ford and Maura Clarke Ursuline Sisshyter Dorothy Kazel and lay misshysionary Jean Donovan
Five former Salvadoran Nashytional Guardsmen were arrested in May 1981 in connection with the deaths but their trials have been delayed several times

Attleboro church is 100 years old bull
For 100 years the faith has been lived in this parish said Bishop Daniel A Cronin in adshydressing members of St John the Evangelist Chur9h Attleboro as they celebrated its centennial at a Mass on Sept 25
From the first pastor Father John bullOConnell to the present Father Smith he continued children have been baptized reshyceived their first communion and been confirmed here
This is the Holy Year of Reshydemption and the redemptive graces won for us by Christ have been enjoyed by the people of St Johns for the past century
The celebration was an ocshycasion for looking back over the parish history which began in 1883 when Father OConnell was assigned by Bishop Thomas Hendricken of the Providence diocese which then Included the Fall River area to found a- parshyish in Attleboro
The first Mass was said Jan 6 1883 in Union Hall Attleshyboro but Father John as he was universally known soon organshyized fundraising efforts and on Sept 17 1883 the cornerstone w~s laid on North Main Street

for a building 10 feet long and 50 feet wide seating 700 pershysons It was dedicated Sept 22 1885
Father OConnell served his parish for 27 years before his sudden death shocked the city He was followed by Fath~r
David F Sheedy who served from 1910 to 1930 During his pastorate the parishioners doubled in number despite creashytion of two new parishes from the origimll St Johns
Upon his death th~ Attleboro Sun editorialized He never sought popularity but taught by precept and example the tenets of an unfaltering faith His disshycourses were plain and to the point his eloquence unvarnishmiddot ed eternalmiddot truths During his pastorate the major portion of the cost of the present day beaushytiful Gothic church was put aside
Father James M Quinn Recshytor of St Marys Cathedral was the next pastor appointed by Bishop Cassidy on June 29 1930 As a tribute to the new pastor a silent drive was made in the parish and enough money was rais~d to complete the building of a new church
The rie~ building was well under way when the old church was utterly destroyed by fire For several months thereafter Mass was celebrated at a nearby theater un~il the new church was dedicated Nov 6 1932 It is believed to be one of the finshyest examples Of Gothic archishytecture in America
For almost 17 years Father Quinn spent his strength for his people untilmiddot in May 1949 he felt that he could work no onge~ resigned his pastorate and died May 30 of the following year
In July 1950 Father John J Shay became St Johns fourth pastor During his term Boy Scouts were organized and parshy
ish societies reorganized but his major accomplishment was the construlttion of a new parochial school which opened in Septemshyber 1955 thereafter adding grades until by 1960 it offered a full eight-grade program with Sisters of Mercy as faculty memshybers
January 1958 saw celebration of St Johns 75th anniversary highlighted by a pageant preshysented by the schoolchildren and by activities of the parishs many organizations
In 1961 Father Shay passed away after an 11-year pastorate He was followed by Father Thomas F Walsh fondly reshymembered for the many parish social activities he encouraged as well as for his devotion to his flock
His pastorate of 11 years was _f0110wed by the three-year asshy
signment of Father HenryT Munroe tho was invested as a monsignor in 1974 A special event of the time was the celeshybration of St Johns 90th annishyversary in 1973 marked by a festive Mass and a dinner atshytended by J)early every living priest who had served in the parshyish
In 1975 the present pastor Very Rev J()hn J Smith came to St Johns where he combines his pastoral duties with those of the office of diocesan director of vocations and episcopal vicar of the Attieboro-Taunton deanery of the diocese He and the p~esent associate
Father Marc Tremblay share a delight in landscaping and beaushytifying the parish grounds In recognition of this the church this year received the Attleboro Gardeners Civic Beautification Award
Thus it is that parish life now entering its second century goes forward in an atmosphere 9f both physical and spiritual beauty

America and the Bible have always had an interesting relashytionship and this year Ive met many young people who want to learn more about this special pookbecause of its impact on US history
Theyve read of how the Bible formed American life through its influence on the earliest setshytiers In fact the influence beshygan befor~thecolonists came to these shores Most of them were Puritans and the Scriptures have been described as the practical and theoretical fountainhead of that movement
Biblical imagery provided the new nation with figuresof speech which have fomed the national consciousriess The titlesof more than 200 no~els and plays writshyten in the uS during a recent 10-year period for instance were taken from the Bible
Ooer262 days a study of New Yark Times editorials revealed 466 Biblical references in 367 editorials
During the summer I jotted down things people t(lld J me about their lives the failure of a marriage Smiddot friena~hip a busishyness many sorrows
And I thought of Jesus WOrds Everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house qn simd th~ rain came down the winds bl~w and it fell with Il crash
One neednt listen too careshyfully to hear the crashes Marrishyages (amilies institutions friendshIps alliances are collapshysing everywhere

Eight C-C sports teams chalkshyed up nine wins in one recent week All varsity teams were victorious with volleyballers bringing in two triumphs
~ay one respects it but not to live accordng to its message will not supply strength in crisis

connection with the 1979 Sanshydinista revolution in Nicaragua if it is right for journalists to make a glamorous career out of other peoples misery and whether they should become participants in events they are supposed to be reporting
Russel Price (Nick Nolte) an American journalist finds that the corruption and brutality in Nicaragua break through his deshytachment Encouraged by Claire (Joanna Cassidy) a fellow journshyalist he agrees to photograph a charismatic Sandinista leader killed in battle as if he were still alive to keep up the morale of

raised six children in the Cathshyolic Church and all were ecRumiddot cated in the Catholic school system Now that they are on their own all but one have joined or attend different deshynominations
Some of the children think smoking drinking and gambling are sinful and shun the ones who do these things although they do not show real animosity The family has diifted apart and ~he only time they see each other is when we invite them all over alt the same time _
My one son il constantly pressuring his father and me to attend IDs church We do not want to go but do not know how to tell him without creating hard feelings How do we handle this - Kentucky
Apparently every one of your children has a hunger for a spiritual me Like you I do not know wl)y they have sought difshyferent Christian communities to fulfill this need However they are adults now making their middotown adult choices And like the rest of us their spiritual journey is not complete
While you are not happy with their choices recognize that they lire not your doing or your fault You might also reflect that none )f them are indifferent to a piritual life
Drifting apart is typical of grown-up children Schooling jobs personal iJ1~erests marrishyage alld modern mobility lead ehildren away both physically nnd in spirit Parents remain the center that draws them back tomiddot gether You are already doing this by holding all-family gathershyings
Another way to keep adult (hildren in touch with each other is through letters Write Each child weekly regardless of whether the child responds to you If you cannot write to each individually WritE and distribute a family newsletter Photocopyshying machines are a boon to famishy
lies such as yours In your letter
include not only your own and your husbands news but also the doings of each grown child
Your son has joined another church He has found something that is important to him and he is eager to share it with you How wonderful that he takes his spiritual life so seriously and that he so loves and values the response of his parents that he wants you to come I do not know how you can resist such an important invitation
Christians share a belief in the teachings of Jesus and a conshyviction about the importance of family Churches are meant to enhance fa~ilies not to divide them

Long struggle related
By Anne Buckley
NEW YORK (NC) - For 10 years Dr Kevin Cahill did everyshything possible to keep his pashytient the late Cardinal Terence Cooke of New York functioning so that he could use every day to the maximum to serve the Lord CARDINAL COOKE
Those efforts continued until Cardinal Cookes death Oct 6 of cardinals bone marrow and red leukemia Cahill told Catholic and white blood cell system New York archdiocesan news- Cahill said paper revealing for the first time Thus came a period the physishythat during the last few months cian described as careful medishythe cardinal received chemoshy cal management including therapy in an effort to prolong blood transfusions at least once his life a month in the cardinals home
Careful to preserve his pashy and a constant watch for inshytients privacy Cahill issued only fections one statement before the carshy Hed be off to Korea after dinals death on his condition midnight Mass and everyone and treatment would say how rosy he looked
Published reports that Cardinal Sure he looked rosy hed just Cooke rejected chemotherapy been transfused the doctor prompted Cahills comments said
The cardinal received an ap- Then a change occurred ~in propriate program of chemo- earl~ August a unn~ry tract IDshy~herapy during the last few months in a continuing effort to prolong the productive life of a man who lived every minute of life CahiU said It was adshyministered in his home not only to insure his dignity and privacy for prayer but also to avoid inshyfections towhich he might have been exposed in a hospital
Cahill is convinced that the home treatment prolonged the cardinals life
The physician said that Carshydina Cooke meant what he said about the value of life even when accompanied by suffering
Ten years of my care were distilled in the last two months Cahill said saying Cardinal Cooke demonstrated true acshyceptance of suffering as a joyshyful part of life
The doctor and patient planshyned Cardinal Cookes treatment together During the more than 10 years when I cared for him he was the most cooperative pashytient always wanting the best medical advice and following whatever I asked him to do Cahill said It was always in complete and utter privacy so that illness would not take censhyter stage in the cardinals life Cahill said
The cardinal was hospitalized for cancer only twice some- 20 years ago when he had surgery for removal of tissue from his neck and in 1975 for removal of a lymphoma lesion from his mouth The rest of his treatment was administered in his home or Cahills office early in the mornshying or after regular patient hours
From 1975-79 there was intense chemotherapy daily medication and weekly injections accomshypanied ~y aU the side effects such as nausea and vomiting Cahill said
The chemotherapy killed the lymphoma but damaged the
fectlon and so~ethIDg el~e shyacute myeloblastic leukemia
The phase of 18-hour work days was over Cahill said Now the cardinal wanted to save his energy for prayer
At home the cardinal received everything that medicine could offer the doctor said Transshyfusions chemotherapy and other treatment continued
Painkillers were administered sparingly at the cardinals reshyquest because of the life he wanted Cahill said He wanted to stay prayerful and producshytive
Cahill said the cardinals apshyproach to terminal illness was
active acceptance of medical help in order to continue proshyductivity He said the cardinal wanted to give an example of courage to others who have to suffer to accept the full treatshyment available to them
He saw death as an inevitable part of life Not as something to be feared and not as something to be accepted passively as a dog rolling over Cahill said His death was absolutely total
Letters to Pope In other news of the late carshy
dinal the Vatican published on Oct 21 an unedited exchange of letters between him and Pope John Paul II in which the carshydinal implicitly offered his resigshynation as archbishop of New York because of his illness
The pope sidestepped the resigshynation offer thanked the carshydinal for his pastoral labors and promised his prayers during the cardinals illness
The cardinals offer was conshytained in an Aug 25 letter He said that due to the limitations caused by his illness he wanted to turn over the pastoral care of the archdiocese and of the Military Ordinate which he also headed to my collaborators with my encouragement
On the following day Aug 26 the Archdiocese of New York held a press conference to anshynounce that the 62-year-old carshydinal was suffering from acut~
leukemia was being cared for at home and couId die within a matter of months
The popes response dated Sept I told Cardinal Cooke of the spiritual closenesswhich he felt to the ~ardinal during his illness and thanked him for your fidelity to the wdrd of God for all your pastoral labors performed in love and suffering as well as for your personal friendship
I am sure middotthat your brothers and sisters and fellow-citizens in America will never forget all your efforts on behalf of life the right to life everyones right to life wrote the pope
Kissinger panel Continued from page one
of four American churchwomen was approved by the Senate Oct 20
The resolution sponsored by Sen Patrick J Leahy (D-Vt) does not threaten an end to US military aid But it urges appointshyment of the special prosecutor and asks that a trial in the case begin by this Dec 2 the third anniversary of the churchshywomens deaths
The measure passed by voice vote after one of its supporters Sen Frank R Lautenberg )shyNJ) said the current ambassashydor to El Salvador Thomas R Pickering supports appointment of the special prosecutor
Leahy said evidence in the case has been suppressed negshylected lost or destroyed
His resolution says vigorous prosecution of the case would promote criminal justice throughshyout El Salvador and encourage stronger pursuit of other murder cases including investigation into the death of Archbishop
Oscar Romero of San Salvador killed while celebrating Mass in March 1980
The four US churchwomen were killed Dec 2 1980 They were Maryknoll Sisters Ita Ford and Maura Clarke Ursuline Sisshyter Dorothy Kazel and lay misshysionary Jean Donovan
Five former Salvadoran Nashytional Guardsmen were arrested in May 1981 in connection with the deaths but their trials have been delayed several times

Attleboro church is 100 years old bull
For 100 years the faith has been lived in this parish said Bishop Daniel A Cronin in adshydressing members of St John the Evangelist Chur9h Attleboro as they celebrated its centennial at a Mass on Sept 25
From the first pastor Father John bullOConnell to the present Father Smith he continued children have been baptized reshyceived their first communion and been confirmed here
This is the Holy Year of Reshydemption and the redemptive graces won for us by Christ have been enjoyed by the people of St Johns for the past century
The celebration was an ocshycasion for looking back over the parish history which began in 1883 when Father OConnell was assigned by Bishop Thomas Hendricken of the Providence diocese which then Included the Fall River area to found a- parshyish in Attleboro
The first Mass was said Jan 6 1883 in Union Hall Attleshyboro but Father John as he was universally known soon organshyized fundraising efforts and on Sept 17 1883 the cornerstone w~s laid on North Main Street

for a building 10 feet long and 50 feet wide seating 700 pershysons It was dedicated Sept 22 1885
Father OConnell served his parish for 27 years before his sudden death shocked the city He was followed by Fath~r
David F Sheedy who served from 1910 to 1930 During his pastorate the parishioners doubled in number despite creashytion of two new parishes from the origimll St Johns
Upon his death th~ Attleboro Sun editorialized He never sought popularity but taught by precept and example the tenets of an unfaltering faith His disshycourses were plain and to the point his eloquence unvarnishmiddot ed eternalmiddot truths During his pastorate the major portion of the cost of the present day beaushytiful Gothic church was put aside
Father James M Quinn Recshytor of St Marys Cathedral was the next pastor appointed by Bishop Cassidy on June 29 1930 As a tribute to the new pastor a silent drive was made in the parish and enough money was rais~d to complete the building of a new church
The rie~ building was well under way when the old church was utterly destroyed by fire For several months thereafter Mass was celebrated at a nearby theater un~il the new church was dedicated Nov 6 1932 It is believed to be one of the finshyest examples Of Gothic archishytecture in America
For almost 17 years Father Quinn spent his strength for his people untilmiddot in May 1949 he felt that he could work no onge~ resigned his pastorate and died May 30 of the following year
In July 1950 Father John J Shay became St Johns fourth pastor During his term Boy Scouts were organized and parshy
ish societies reorganized but his major accomplishment was the construlttion of a new parochial school which opened in Septemshyber 1955 thereafter adding grades until by 1960 it offered a full eight-grade program with Sisters of Mercy as faculty memshybers
January 1958 saw celebration of St Johns 75th anniversary highlighted by a pageant preshysented by the schoolchildren and by activities of the parishs many organizations
In 1961 Father Shay passed away after an 11-year pastorate He was followed by Father Thomas F Walsh fondly reshymembered for the many parish social activities he encouraged as well as for his devotion to his flock
His pastorate of 11 years was _f0110wed by the three-year asshy
signment of Father HenryT Munroe tho was invested as a monsignor in 1974 A special event of the time was the celeshybration of St Johns 90th annishyversary in 1973 marked by a festive Mass and a dinner atshytended by J)early every living priest who had served in the parshyish
In 1975 the present pastor Very Rev J()hn J Smith came to St Johns where he combines his pastoral duties with those of the office of diocesan director of vocations and episcopal vicar of the Attieboro-Taunton deanery of the diocese He and the p~esent associate
Father Marc Tremblay share a delight in landscaping and beaushytifying the parish grounds In recognition of this the church this year received the Attleboro Gardeners Civic Beautification Award
Thus it is that parish life now entering its second century goes forward in an atmosphere 9f both physical and spiritual beauty

America and the Bible have always had an interesting relashytionship and this year Ive met many young people who want to learn more about this special pookbecause of its impact on US history
Theyve read of how the Bible formed American life through its influence on the earliest setshytiers In fact the influence beshygan befor~thecolonists came to these shores Most of them were Puritans and the Scriptures have been described as the practical and theoretical fountainhead of that movement

By Dr James aDd Mary Kenny Dear Mary My husband and I
raised six children in the Cathshyolic Church and all were ecRumiddot cated in the Catholic school system Now that they are on their own all but one have joined or attend different deshynominations
Some of the children think smoking drinking and gambling are sinful and shun the ones who do these things although they do not show real animosity The family has diifted apart and ~he only time they see each other is when we invite them all over alt the same time _
My one son il constantly pressuring his father and me to attend IDs church We do not want to go but do not know how to tell him without creating hard feelings How do we handle this - Kentucky
Apparently every one of your children has a hunger for a spiritual me Like you I do not know wl)y they have sought difshyferent Christian communities to fulfill this need However they are adults now making their middotown adult choices And like the rest of us their spiritual journey is not complete
While you are not happy with their choices recognize that they lire not your doing or your fault You might also reflect that none )f them are indifferent to a piritual life
Drifting apart is typical of grown-up children Schooling jobs personal iJ1~erests marrishyage alld modern mobility lead ehildren away both physically nnd in spirit Parents remain the center that draws them back tomiddot gether You are already doing this by holding all-family gathershyings
Another way to keep adult (hildren in touch with each other is through letters Write Each child weekly regardless of whether the child responds to you If you cannot write to each individually WritE and distribute a family newsletter Photocopyshying machines are a boon to famishy
lies such as yours In your letter
include not only your own and your husbands news but also the doings of each grown child
Your son has joined another church He has found something that is important to him and he is eager to share it with you How wonderful that he takes his spiritual life so seriously and that he so loves and values the response of his parents that he wants you to come I do not know how you can resist such an important invitation
Christians share a belief in the teachings of Jesus and a conshyviction about the importance of family Churches are meant to enhance fa~ilies not to divide them

Noting that the groundshywork has been laid for the sucshycessful resolution ofmiddot this issue in Congress through the united efforts of dedicated citizens throughout the nation he said we are requesting that the Sen~ ate leadership schedule the vote on tuition tax credits for either the first or third week of Noyshyember
Reagan added I wiII do all I can to see Smiddot528 enacted into law I know that you and the
as something important to him which he wants to share You might go there not to seek docshytrinal or theological points of difference but to share the teaching of jesus in which middotyou both believe Return the invitashytion inviting him to Mass at your church
Continue to try to make our own church a more open loving and welcoming one And even though you do not agree respect your childrens quests and the choices they make
Reader questions on family living and child care to be anshyswered in print are invited Adshydress The Kennys Box 872 St Josephs College Rensselaer Ind 47978

The network also wiII provide live press conferences between individual bishops at the Washmiddot ington meeting and media in their home dioceses The one-way video two-way audio confershyences will be arranged on reshyquest by bishops of affiliated dioceses
parents who patronize your schools are committed to this legislation lS a matter of consshycience and fair play We are in agreement that the primary aushythority over a childs education rests with the family Parents have the right and responsibility to have their children educated in accordance with their own values A tuition tax credit wiII go a long way toward making this right a reality for parents of modest means

Long struggle related
By Anne Buckley
NEW YORK (NC) - For 10 years Dr Kevin Cahill did everyshything possible to keep his pashytient the late Cardinal Terence Cooke of New York functioning so that he could use every day to the maximum to serve the Lord CARDINAL COOKE
Those efforts continued until Cardinal Cookes death Oct 6 of cardinals bone marrow and red leukemia Cahill told Catholic and white blood cell system New York archdiocesan news- Cahill said paper revealing for the first time Thus came a period the physishythat during the last few months cian described as careful medishythe cardinal received chemoshy cal management including therapy in an effort to prolong blood transfusions at least once his life a month in the cardinals home
Careful to preserve his pashy and a constant watch for inshytients privacy Cahill issued only fections one statement before the carshy Hed be off to Korea after dinals death on his condition midnight Mass and everyone and treatment would say how rosy he looked
Published reports that Cardinal Sure he looked rosy hed just Cooke rejected chemotherapy been transfused the doctor prompted Cahills comments said
The cardinal received an ap- Then a change occurred ~in propriate program of chemo- earl~ August a unn~ry tract IDshy~herapy during the last few months in a continuing effort to prolong the productive life of a man who lived every minute of life CahiU said It was adshyministered in his home not only to insure his dignity and privacy for prayer but also to avoid inshyfections towhich he might have been exposed in a hospital
Cahill is convinced that the home treatment prolonged the cardinals life
The physician said that Carshydina Cooke meant what he said about the value of life even when accompanied by suffering
Ten years of my care were distilled in the last two months Cahill said saying Cardinal Cooke demonstrated true acshyceptance of suffering as a joyshyful part of life
The doctor and patient planshyned Cardinal Cookes treatment together During the more than 10 years when I cared for him he was the most cooperative pashytient always wanting the best medical advice and following whatever I asked him to do Cahill said It was always in complete and utter privacy so that illness would not take censhyter stage in the cardinals life Cahill said
The cardinal was hospitalized for cancer only twice some- 20 years ago when he had surgery for removal of tissue from his neck and in 1975 for removal of a lymphoma lesion from his mouth The rest of his treatment was administered in his home or Cahills office early in the mornshying or after regular patient hours
From 1975-79 there was intense chemotherapy daily medication and weekly injections accomshypanied ~y aU the side effects such as nausea and vomiting Cahill said
The chemotherapy killed the lymphoma but damaged the
fectlon and so~ethIDg el~e shyacute myeloblastic leukemia
The phase of 18-hour work days was over Cahill said Now the cardinal wanted to save his energy for prayer
At home the cardinal received everything that medicine could offer the doctor said Transshyfusions chemotherapy and other treatment continued
Painkillers were administered sparingly at the cardinals reshyquest because of the life he wanted Cahill said He wanted to stay prayerful and producshytive
Cahill said the cardinals apshyproach to terminal illness was
active acceptance of medical help in order to continue proshyductivity He said the cardinal wanted to give an example of courage to others who have to suffer to accept the full treatshyment available to them
He saw death as an inevitable part of life Not as something to be feared and not as something to be accepted passively as a dog rolling over Cahill said His death was absolutely total
Letters to Pope In other news of the late carshy
dinal the Vatican published on Oct 21 an unedited exchange of letters between him and Pope John Paul II in which the carshydinal implicitly offered his resigshynation as archbishop of New York because of his illness
The pope sidestepped the resigshynation offer thanked the carshydinal for his pastoral labors and promised his prayers during the cardinals illness
The cardinals offer was conshytained in an Aug 25 letter He said that due to the limitations caused by his illness he wanted to turn over the pastoral care of the archdiocese and of the Military Ordinate which he also headed to my collaborators with my encouragement
On the following day Aug 26 the Archdiocese of New York held a press conference to anshynounce that the 62-year-old carshydinal was suffering from acut~
leukemia was being cared for at home and couId die within a matter of months
The popes response dated Sept I told Cardinal Cooke of the spiritual closenesswhich he felt to the ~ardinal during his illness and thanked him for your fidelity to the wdrd of God for all your pastoral labors performed in love and suffering as well as for your personal friendship
I am sure middotthat your brothers and sisters and fellow-citizens in America will never forget all your efforts on behalf of life the right to life everyones right to life wrote the pope
Kissinger panel Continued from page one
of four American churchwomen was approved by the Senate Oct 20
The resolution sponsored by Sen Patrick J Leahy (D-Vt) does not threaten an end to US military aid But it urges appointshyment of the special prosecutor and asks that a trial in the case begin by this Dec 2 the third anniversary of the churchshywomens deaths
The measure passed by voice vote after one of its supporters Sen Frank R Lautenberg )shyNJ) said the current ambassashydor to El Salvador Thomas R Pickering supports appointment of the special prosecutor
Leahy said evidence in the case has been suppressed negshylected lost or destroyed
His resolution says vigorous prosecution of the case would promote criminal justice throughshyout El Salvador and encourage stronger pursuit of other murder cases including investigation into the death of Archbishop
Oscar Romero of San Salvador killed while celebrating Mass in March 1980
The four US churchwomen were killed Dec 2 1980 They were Maryknoll Sisters Ita Ford and Maura Clarke Ursuline Sisshyter Dorothy Kazel and lay misshysionary Jean Donovan
Five former Salvadoran Nashytional Guardsmen were arrested in May 1981 in connection with the deaths but their trials have been delayed several times

Attleboro church is 100 years old bull
For 100 years the faith has been lived in this parish said Bishop Daniel A Cronin in adshydressing members of St John the Evangelist Chur9h Attleboro as they celebrated its centennial at a Mass on Sept 25
From the first pastor Father John bullOConnell to the present Father Smith he continued children have been baptized reshyceived their first communion and been confirmed here
This is the Holy Year of Reshydemption and the redemptive graces won for us by Christ have been enjoyed by the people of St Johns for the past century
The celebration was an ocshycasion for looking back over the parish history which began in 1883 when Father OConnell was assigned by Bishop Thomas Hendricken of the Providence diocese which then Included the Fall River area to found a- parshyish in Attleboro
The first Mass was said Jan 6 1883 in Union Hall Attleshyboro but Father John as he was universally known soon organshyized fundraising efforts and on Sept 17 1883 the cornerstone w~s laid on North Main Street

for a building 10 feet long and 50 feet wide seating 700 pershysons It was dedicated Sept 22 1885
Father OConnell served his parish for 27 years before his sudden death shocked the city He was followed by Fath~r
David F Sheedy who served from 1910 to 1930 During his pastorate the parishioners doubled in number despite creashytion of two new parishes from the origimll St Johns
Upon his death th~ Attleboro Sun editorialized He never sought popularity but taught by precept and example the tenets of an unfaltering faith His disshycourses were plain and to the point his eloquence unvarnishmiddot ed eternalmiddot truths During his pastorate the major portion of the cost of the present day beaushytiful Gothic church was put aside
Father James M Quinn Recshytor of St Marys Cathedral was the next pastor appointed by Bishop Cassidy on June 29 1930 As a tribute to the new pastor a silent drive was made in the parish and enough money was rais~d to complete the building of a new church
The rie~ building was well under way when the old church was utterly destroyed by fire For several months thereafter Mass was celebrated at a nearby theater un~il the new church was dedicated Nov 6 1932 It is believed to be one of the finshyest examples Of Gothic archishytecture in America
For almost 17 years Father Quinn spent his strength for his people untilmiddot in May 1949 he felt that he could work no onge~ resigned his pastorate and died May 30 of the following year
In July 1950 Father John J Shay became St Johns fourth pastor During his term Boy Scouts were organized and parshy
ish societies reorganized but his major accomplishment was the construlttion of a new parochial school which opened in Septemshyber 1955 thereafter adding grades until by 1960 it offered a full eight-grade program with Sisters of Mercy as faculty memshybers
January 1958 saw celebration of St Johns 75th anniversary highlighted by a pageant preshysented by the schoolchildren and by activities of the parishs many organizations
In 1961 Father Shay passed away after an 11-year pastorate He was followed by Father Thomas F Walsh fondly reshymembered for the many parish social activities he encouraged as well as for his devotion to his flock
His pastorate of 11 years was _f0110wed by the three-year asshy
signment of Father HenryT Munroe tho was invested as a monsignor in 1974 A special event of the time was the celeshybration of St Johns 90th annishyversary in 1973 marked by a festive Mass and a dinner atshytended by J)early every living priest who had served in the parshyish
In 1975 the present pastor Very Rev J()hn J Smith came to St Johns where he combines his pastoral duties with those of the office of diocesan director of vocations and episcopal vicar of the Attieboro-Taunton deanery of the diocese He and the p~esent associate
Father Marc Tremblay share a delight in landscaping and beaushytifying the parish grounds In recognition of this the church this year received the Attleboro Gardeners Civic Beautification Award
Thus it is that parish life now entering its second century goes forward in an atmosphere 9f both physical and spiritual beauty

By Dr James aDd Mary Kenny Dear Mary My husband and I
raised six children in the Cathshyolic Church and all were ecRumiddot cated in the Catholic school system Now that they are on their own all but one have joined or attend different deshynominations
Some of the children think smoking drinking and gambling are sinful and shun the ones who do these things although they do not show real animosity The family has diifted apart and ~he only time they see each other is when we invite them all over alt the same time _
My one son il constantly pressuring his father and me to attend IDs church We do not want to go but do not know how to tell him without creating hard feelings How do we handle this - Kentucky
Apparently every one of your children has a hunger for a spiritual me Like you I do not know wl)y they have sought difshyferent Christian communities to fulfill this need However they are adults now making their middotown adult choices And like the rest of us their spiritual journey is not complete
While you are not happy with their choices recognize that they lire not your doing or your fault You might also reflect that none )f them are indifferent to a piritual life
Drifting apart is typical of grown-up children Schooling jobs personal iJ1~erests marrishyage alld modern mobility lead ehildren away both physically nnd in spirit Parents remain the center that draws them back tomiddot gether You are already doing this by holding all-family gathershyings
Another way to keep adult (hildren in touch with each other is through letters Write Each child weekly regardless of whether the child responds to you If you cannot write to each individually WritE and distribute a family newsletter Photocopyshying machines are a boon to famishy
lies such as yours In your letter
include not only your own and your husbands news but also the doings of each grown child
Your son has joined another church He has found something that is important to him and he is eager to share it with you How wonderful that he takes his spiritual life so seriously and that he so loves and values the response of his parents that he wants you to come I do not know how you can resist such an important invitation
Christians share a belief in the teachings of Jesus and a conshyviction about the importance of family Churches are meant to enhance fa~ilies not to divide them

Long struggle related
By Anne Buckley
NEW YORK (NC) - For 10 years Dr Kevin Cahill did everyshything possible to keep his pashytient the late Cardinal Terence Cooke of New York functioning so that he could use every day to the maximum to serve the Lord CARDINAL COOKE
Those efforts continued until Cardinal Cookes death Oct 6 of cardinals bone marrow and red leukemia Cahill told Catholic and white blood cell system New York archdiocesan news- Cahill said paper revealing for the first time Thus came a period the physishythat during the last few months cian described as careful medishythe cardinal received chemoshy cal management including therapy in an effort to prolong blood transfusions at least once his life a month in the cardinals home
Careful to preserve his pashy and a constant watch for inshytients privacy Cahill issued only fections one statement before the carshy Hed be off to Korea after dinals death on his condition midnight Mass and everyone and treatment would say how rosy he looked
Published reports that Cardinal Sure he looked rosy hed just Cooke rejected chemotherapy been transfused the doctor prompted Cahills comments said
The cardinal received an ap- Then a change occurred ~in propriate program of chemo- earl~ August a unn~ry tract IDshy~herapy during the last few months in a continuing effort to prolong the productive life of a man who lived every minute of life CahiU said It was adshyministered in his home not only to insure his dignity and privacy for prayer but also to avoid inshyfections towhich he might have been exposed in a hospital
Cahill is convinced that the home treatment prolonged the cardinals life
The physician said that Carshydina Cooke meant what he said about the value of life even when accompanied by suffering
Ten years of my care were distilled in the last two months Cahill said saying Cardinal Cooke demonstrated true acshyceptance of suffering as a joyshyful part of life
The doctor and patient planshyned Cardinal Cookes treatment together During the more than 10 years when I cared for him he was the most cooperative pashytient always wanting the best medical advice and following whatever I asked him to do Cahill said It was always in complete and utter privacy so that illness would not take censhyter stage in the cardinals life Cahill said
The cardinal was hospitalized for cancer only twice some- 20 years ago when he had surgery for removal of tissue from his neck and in 1975 for removal of a lymphoma lesion from his mouth The rest of his treatment was administered in his home or Cahills office early in the mornshying or after regular patient hours
From 1975-79 there was intense chemotherapy daily medication and weekly injections accomshypanied ~y aU the side effects such as nausea and vomiting Cahill said
The chemotherapy killed the lymphoma but damaged the
fectlon and so~ethIDg el~e shyacute myeloblastic leukemia
The phase of 18-hour work days was over Cahill said Now the cardinal wanted to save his energy for prayer
At home the cardinal received everything that medicine could offer the doctor said Transshyfusions chemotherapy and other treatment continued
Painkillers were administered sparingly at the cardinals reshyquest because of the life he wanted Cahill said He wanted to stay prayerful and producshytive
Cahill said the cardinals apshyproach to terminal illness was
active acceptance of medical help in order to continue proshyductivity He said the cardinal wanted to give an example of courage to others who have to suffer to accept the full treatshyment available to them
He saw death as an inevitable part of life Not as something to be feared and not as something to be accepted passively as a dog rolling over Cahill said His death was absolutely total
Letters to Pope In other news of the late carshy
dinal the Vatican published on Oct 21 an unedited exchange of letters between him and Pope John Paul II in which the carshydinal implicitly offered his resigshynation as archbishop of New York because of his illness
The pope sidestepped the resigshynation offer thanked the carshydinal for his pastoral labors and promised his prayers during the cardinals illness
The cardinals offer was conshytained in an Aug 25 letter He said that due to the limitations caused by his illness he wanted to turn over the pastoral care of the archdiocese and of the Military Ordinate which he also headed to my collaborators with my encouragement
On the following day Aug 26 the Archdiocese of New York held a press conference to anshynounce that the 62-year-old carshydinal was suffering from acut~
leukemia was being cared for at home and couId die within a matter of months
The popes response dated Sept I told Cardinal Cooke of the spiritual closenesswhich he felt to the ~ardinal during his illness and thanked him for your fidelity to the wdrd of God for all your pastoral labors performed in love and suffering as well as for your personal friendship
I am sure middotthat your brothers and sisters and fellow-citizens in America will never forget all your efforts on behalf of life the right to life everyones right to life wrote the pope
Kissinger panel Continued from page one
of four American churchwomen was approved by the Senate Oct 20
The resolution sponsored by Sen Patrick J Leahy (D-Vt) does not threaten an end to US military aid But it urges appointshyment of the special prosecutor and asks that a trial in the case begin by this Dec 2 the third anniversary of the churchshywomens deaths
The measure passed by voice vote after one of its supporters Sen Frank R Lautenberg )shyNJ) said the current ambassashydor to El Salvador Thomas R Pickering supports appointment of the special prosecutor
Leahy said evidence in the case has been suppressed negshylected lost or destroyed
His resolution says vigorous prosecution of the case would promote criminal justice throughshyout El Salvador and encourage stronger pursuit of other murder cases including investigation into the death of Archbishop
Oscar Romero of San Salvador killed while celebrating Mass in March 1980
The four US churchwomen were killed Dec 2 1980 They were Maryknoll Sisters Ita Ford and Maura Clarke Ursuline Sisshyter Dorothy Kazel and lay misshysionary Jean Donovan
Five former Salvadoran Nashytional Guardsmen were arrested in May 1981 in connection with the deaths but their trials have been delayed several times

Attleboro church is 100 years old bull
For 100 years the faith has been lived in this parish said Bishop Daniel A Cronin in adshydressing members of St John the Evangelist Chur9h Attleboro as they celebrated its centennial at a Mass on Sept 25
From the first pastor Father John bullOConnell to the present Father Smith he continued children have been baptized reshyceived their first communion and been confirmed here
This is the Holy Year of Reshydemption and the redemptive graces won for us by Christ have been enjoyed by the people of St Johns for the past century
The celebration was an ocshycasion for looking back over the parish history which began in 1883 when Father OConnell was assigned by Bishop Thomas Hendricken of the Providence diocese which then Included the Fall River area to found a- parshyish in Attleboro
The first Mass was said Jan 6 1883 in Union Hall Attleshyboro but Father John as he was universally known soon organshyized fundraising efforts and on Sept 17 1883 the cornerstone w~s laid on North Main Street

for a building 10 feet long and 50 feet wide seating 700 pershysons It was dedicated Sept 22 1885
Father OConnell served his parish for 27 years before his sudden death shocked the city He was followed by Fath~r
David F Sheedy who served from 1910 to 1930 During his pastorate the parishioners doubled in number despite creashytion of two new parishes from the origimll St Johns
Upon his death th~ Attleboro Sun editorialized He never sought popularity but taught by precept and example the tenets of an unfaltering faith His disshycourses were plain and to the point his eloquence unvarnishmiddot ed eternalmiddot truths During his pastorate the major portion of the cost of the present day beaushytiful Gothic church was put aside
Father James M Quinn Recshytor of St Marys Cathedral was the next pastor appointed by Bishop Cassidy on June 29 1930 As a tribute to the new pastor a silent drive was made in the parish and enough money was rais~d to complete the building of a new church
The rie~ building was well under way when the old church was utterly destroyed by fire For several months thereafter Mass was celebrated at a nearby theater un~il the new church was dedicated Nov 6 1932 It is believed to be one of the finshyest examples Of Gothic archishytecture in America
For almost 17 years Father Quinn spent his strength for his people untilmiddot in May 1949 he felt that he could work no onge~ resigned his pastorate and died May 30 of the following year
In July 1950 Father John J Shay became St Johns fourth pastor During his term Boy Scouts were organized and parshy
ish societies reorganized but his major accomplishment was the construlttion of a new parochial school which opened in Septemshyber 1955 thereafter adding grades until by 1960 it offered a full eight-grade program with Sisters of Mercy as faculty memshybers
January 1958 saw celebration of St Johns 75th anniversary highlighted by a pageant preshysented by the schoolchildren and by activities of the parishs many organizations
In 1961 Father Shay passed away after an 11-year pastorate He was followed by Father Thomas F Walsh fondly reshymembered for the many parish social activities he encouraged as well as for his devotion to his flock
His pastorate of 11 years was _f0110wed by the three-year asshy
signment of Father HenryT Munroe tho was invested as a monsignor in 1974 A special event of the time was the celeshybration of St Johns 90th annishyversary in 1973 marked by a festive Mass and a dinner atshytended by J)early every living priest who had served in the parshyish
In 1975 the present pastor Very Rev J()hn J Smith came to St Johns where he combines his pastoral duties with those of the office of diocesan director of vocations and episcopal vicar of the Attieboro-Taunton deanery of the diocese He and the p~esent associate
Father Marc Tremblay share a delight in landscaping and beaushytifying the parish grounds In recognition of this the church this year received the Attleboro Gardeners Civic Beautification Award
Thus it is that parish life now entering its second century goes forward in an atmosphere 9f both physical and spiritual beauty

By Cecilia Jlelange~ Last Febtuaiy President Reashygan proclaimed ~ 1983 a speciai time to reexaniine and redis cover the Bibles priceless and timeless messages
America and the Bible have always had an interesting relashytionship and this year Ive met many young people who want to learn more about this special pookbecause of its impact on US history
Theyve read of how the Bible formed American life through its influence on the earliest setshytiers In fact the influence beshygan befor~thecolonists came to these shores Most of them were Puritans and the Scriptures have been described as the practical and theoretical fountainhead of that movement
Biblical imagery provided the new nation with figuresof speech which have fomed the national consciousriess The titlesof more than 200 no~els and plays writshyten in the uS during a recent 10-year period for instance were taken from the Bible
Ooer262 days a study of New Yark Times editorials revealed 466 Biblical references in 367 editorials
During the summer I jotted down things people t(lld J me about their lives the failure of a marriage Smiddot friena~hip a busishyness many sorrows
And I thought of Jesus WOrds Everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house qn simd th~ rain came down the winds bl~w and it fell with Il crash
One neednt listen too careshyfully to hear the crashes Marrishyages (amilies institutions friendshIps alliances are collapshysing everywhere

Long struggle related
By Anne Buckley
NEW YORK (NC) - For 10 years Dr Kevin Cahill did everyshything possible to keep his pashytient the late Cardinal Terence Cooke of New York functioning so that he could use every day to the maximum to serve the Lord CARDINAL COOKE
Those efforts continued until Cardinal Cookes death Oct 6 of cardinals bone marrow and red leukemia Cahill told Catholic and white blood cell system New York archdiocesan news- Cahill said paper revealing for the first time Thus came a period the physishythat during the last few months cian described as careful medishythe cardinal received chemoshy cal management including therapy in an effort to prolong blood transfusions at least once his life a month in the cardinals home
Careful to preserve his pashy and a constant watch for inshytients privacy Cahill issued only fections one statement before the carshy Hed be off to Korea after dinals death on his condition midnight Mass and everyone and treatment would say how rosy he looked
Published reports that Cardinal Sure he looked rosy hed just Cooke rejected chemotherapy been transfused the doctor prompted Cahills comments said
The cardinal received an ap- Then a change occurred ~in propriate program of chemo- earl~ August a unn~ry tract IDshy~herapy during the last few months in a continuing effort to prolong the productive life of a man who lived every minute of life CahiU said It was adshyministered in his home not only to insure his dignity and privacy for prayer but also to avoid inshyfections towhich he might have been exposed in a hospital
Cahill is convinced that the home treatment prolonged the cardinals life
The physician said that Carshydina Cooke meant what he said about the value of life even when accompanied by suffering
Ten years of my care were distilled in the last two months Cahill said saying Cardinal Cooke demonstrated true acshyceptance of suffering as a joyshyful part of life
The doctor and patient planshyned Cardinal Cookes treatment together During the more than 10 years when I cared for him he was the most cooperative pashytient always wanting the best medical advice and following whatever I asked him to do Cahill said It was always in complete and utter privacy so that illness would not take censhyter stage in the cardinals life Cahill said
The cardinal was hospitalized for cancer only twice some- 20 years ago when he had surgery for removal of tissue from his neck and in 1975 for removal of a lymphoma lesion from his mouth The rest of his treatment was administered in his home or Cahills office early in the mornshying or after regular patient hours
From 1975-79 there was intense chemotherapy daily medication and weekly injections accomshypanied ~y aU the side effects such as nausea and vomiting Cahill said
The chemotherapy killed the lymphoma but damaged the
fectlon and so~ethIDg el~e shyacute myeloblastic leukemia
The phase of 18-hour work days was over Cahill said Now the cardinal wanted to save his energy for prayer
At home the cardinal received everything that medicine could offer the doctor said Transshyfusions chemotherapy and other treatment continued
Painkillers were administered sparingly at the cardinals reshyquest because of the life he wanted Cahill said He wanted to stay prayerful and producshytive
Cahill said the cardinals apshyproach to terminal illness was
active acceptance of medical help in order to continue proshyductivity He said the cardinal wanted to give an example of courage to others who have to suffer to accept the full treatshyment available to them
He saw death as an inevitable part of life Not as something to be feared and not as something to be accepted passively as a dog rolling over Cahill said His death was absolutely total
Letters to Pope In other news of the late carshy
dinal the Vatican published on Oct 21 an unedited exchange of letters between him and Pope John Paul II in which the carshydinal implicitly offered his resigshynation as archbishop of New York because of his illness
The pope sidestepped the resigshynation offer thanked the carshydinal for his pastoral labors and promised his prayers during the cardinals illness
The cardinals offer was conshytained in an Aug 25 letter He said that due to the limitations caused by his illness he wanted to turn over the pastoral care of the archdiocese and of the Military Ordinate which he also headed to my collaborators with my encouragement
On the following day Aug 26 the Archdiocese of New York held a press conference to anshynounce that the 62-year-old carshydinal was suffering from acut~
leukemia was being cared for at home and couId die within a matter of months
The popes response dated Sept I told Cardinal Cooke of the spiritual closenesswhich he felt to the ~ardinal during his illness and thanked him for your fidelity to the wdrd of God for all your pastoral labors performed in love and suffering as well as for your personal friendship
I am sure middotthat your brothers and sisters and fellow-citizens in America will never forget all your efforts on behalf of life the right to life everyones right to life wrote the pope
Kissinger panel Continued from page one
of four American churchwomen was approved by the Senate Oct 20
The resolution sponsored by Sen Patrick J Leahy (D-Vt) does not threaten an end to US military aid But it urges appointshyment of the special prosecutor and asks that a trial in the case begin by this Dec 2 the third anniversary of the churchshywomens deaths
The measure passed by voice vote after one of its supporters Sen Frank R Lautenberg )shyNJ) said the current ambassashydor to El Salvador Thomas R Pickering supports appointment of the special prosecutor
Leahy said evidence in the case has been suppressed negshylected lost or destroyed
His resolution says vigorous prosecution of the case would promote criminal justice throughshyout El Salvador and encourage stronger pursuit of other murder cases including investigation into the death of Archbishop
Oscar Romero of San Salvador killed while celebrating Mass in March 1980
The four US churchwomen were killed Dec 2 1980 They were Maryknoll Sisters Ita Ford and Maura Clarke Ursuline Sisshyter Dorothy Kazel and lay misshysionary Jean Donovan
Five former Salvadoran Nashytional Guardsmen were arrested in May 1981 in connection with the deaths but their trials have been delayed several times

Attleboro church is 100 years old bull
For 100 years the faith has been lived in this parish said Bishop Daniel A Cronin in adshydressing members of St John the Evangelist Chur9h Attleboro as they celebrated its centennial at a Mass on Sept 25
From the first pastor Father John bullOConnell to the present Father Smith he continued children have been baptized reshyceived their first communion and been confirmed here
This is the Holy Year of Reshydemption and the redemptive graces won for us by Christ have been enjoyed by the people of St Johns for the past century
The celebration was an ocshycasion for looking back over the parish history which began in 1883 when Father OConnell was assigned by Bishop Thomas Hendricken of the Providence diocese which then Included the Fall River area to found a- parshyish in Attleboro
The first Mass was said Jan 6 1883 in Union Hall Attleshyboro but Father John as he was universally known soon organshyized fundraising efforts and on Sept 17 1883 the cornerstone w~s laid on North Main Street

for a building 10 feet long and 50 feet wide seating 700 pershysons It was dedicated Sept 22 1885
Father OConnell served his parish for 27 years before his sudden death shocked the city He was followed by Fath~r
David F Sheedy who served from 1910 to 1930 During his pastorate the parishioners doubled in number despite creashytion of two new parishes from the origimll St Johns
Upon his death th~ Attleboro Sun editorialized He never sought popularity but taught by precept and example the tenets of an unfaltering faith His disshycourses were plain and to the point his eloquence unvarnishmiddot ed eternalmiddot truths During his pastorate the major portion of the cost of the present day beaushytiful Gothic church was put aside
Father James M Quinn Recshytor of St Marys Cathedral was the next pastor appointed by Bishop Cassidy on June 29 1930 As a tribute to the new pastor a silent drive was made in the parish and enough money was rais~d to complete the building of a new church
The rie~ building was well under way when the old church was utterly destroyed by fire For several months thereafter Mass was celebrated at a nearby theater un~il the new church was dedicated Nov 6 1932 It is believed to be one of the finshyest examples Of Gothic archishytecture in America
For almost 17 years Father Quinn spent his strength for his people untilmiddot in May 1949 he felt that he could work no onge~ resigned his pastorate and died May 30 of the following year
In July 1950 Father John J Shay became St Johns fourth pastor During his term Boy Scouts were organized and parshy
ish societies reorganized but his major accomplishment was the construlttion of a new parochial school which opened in Septemshyber 1955 thereafter adding grades until by 1960 it offered a full eight-grade program with Sisters of Mercy as faculty memshybers
January 1958 saw celebration of St Johns 75th anniversary highlighted by a pageant preshysented by the schoolchildren and by activities of the parishs many organizations
In 1961 Father Shay passed away after an 11-year pastorate He was followed by Father Thomas F Walsh fondly reshymembered for the many parish social activities he encouraged as well as for his devotion to his flock
His pastorate of 11 years was _f0110wed by the three-year asshy
signment of Father HenryT Munroe tho was invested as a monsignor in 1974 A special event of the time was the celeshybration of St Johns 90th annishyversary in 1973 marked by a festive Mass and a dinner atshytended by J)early every living priest who had served in the parshyish
In 1975 the present pastor Very Rev J()hn J Smith came to St Johns where he combines his pastoral duties with those of the office of diocesan director of vocations and episcopal vicar of the Attieboro-Taunton deanery of the diocese He and the p~esent associate
Father Marc Tremblay share a delight in landscaping and beaushytifying the parish grounds In recognition of this the church this year received the Attleboro Gardeners Civic Beautification Award
Thus it is that parish life now entering its second century goes forward in an atmosphere 9f both physical and spiritual beauty

Attleboro church is 100 years old bull
For 100 years the faith has been lived in this parish said Bishop Daniel A Cronin in adshydressing members of St John the Evangelist Chur9h Attleboro as they celebrated its centennial at a Mass on Sept 25
From the first pastor Father John bullOConnell to the present Father Smith he continued children have been baptized reshyceived their first communion and been confirmed here
This is the Holy Year of Reshydemption and the redemptive graces won for us by Christ have been enjoyed by the people of St Johns for the past century
The celebration was an ocshycasion for looking back over the parish history which began in 1883 when Father OConnell was assigned by Bishop Thomas Hendricken of the Providence diocese which then Included the Fall River area to found a- parshyish in Attleboro
The first Mass was said Jan 6 1883 in Union Hall Attleshyboro but Father John as he was universally known soon organshyized fundraising efforts and on Sept 17 1883 the cornerstone w~s laid on North Main Street

for a building 10 feet long and 50 feet wide seating 700 pershysons It was dedicated Sept 22 1885
Father OConnell served his parish for 27 years before his sudden death shocked the city He was followed by Fath~r
David F Sheedy who served from 1910 to 1930 During his pastorate the parishioners doubled in number despite creashytion of two new parishes from the origimll St Johns
Upon his death th~ Attleboro Sun editorialized He never sought popularity but taught by precept and example the tenets of an unfaltering faith His disshycourses were plain and to the point his eloquence unvarnishmiddot ed eternalmiddot truths During his pastorate the major portion of the cost of the present day beaushytiful Gothic church was put aside
Father James M Quinn Recshytor of St Marys Cathedral was the next pastor appointed by Bishop Cassidy on June 29 1930 As a tribute to the new pastor a silent drive was made in the parish and enough money was rais~d to complete the building of a new church
The rie~ building was well under way when the old church was utterly destroyed by fire For several months thereafter Mass was celebrated at a nearby theater un~il the new church was dedicated Nov 6 1932 It is believed to be one of the finshyest examples Of Gothic archishytecture in America
For almost 17 years Father Quinn spent his strength for his people untilmiddot in May 1949 he felt that he could work no onge~ resigned his pastorate and died May 30 of the following year
In July 1950 Father John J Shay became St Johns fourth pastor During his term Boy Scouts were organized and parshy
ish societies reorganized but his major accomplishment was the construlttion of a new parochial school which opened in Septemshyber 1955 thereafter adding grades until by 1960 it offered a full eight-grade program with Sisters of Mercy as faculty memshybers
January 1958 saw celebration of St Johns 75th anniversary highlighted by a pageant preshysented by the schoolchildren and by activities of the parishs many organizations
In 1961 Father Shay passed away after an 11-year pastorate He was followed by Father Thomas F Walsh fondly reshymembered for the many parish social activities he encouraged as well as for his devotion to his flock
His pastorate of 11 years was _f0110wed by the three-year asshy
signment of Father HenryT Munroe tho was invested as a monsignor in 1974 A special event of the time was the celeshybration of St Johns 90th annishyversary in 1973 marked by a festive Mass and a dinner atshytended by J)early every living priest who had served in the parshyish
In 1975 the present pastor Very Rev J()hn J Smith came to St Johns where he combines his pastoral duties with those of the office of diocesan director of vocations and episcopal vicar of the Attieboro-Taunton deanery of the diocese He and the p~esent associate
Father Marc Tremblay share a delight in landscaping and beaushytifying the parish grounds In recognition of this the church this year received the Attleboro Gardeners Civic Beautification Award
Thus it is that parish life now entering its second century goes forward in an atmosphere 9f both physical and spiritual beauty

America and the Bible have always had an interesting relashytionship and this year Ive met many young people who want to learn more about this special pookbecause of its impact on US history
Theyve read of how the Bible formed American life through its influence on the earliest setshytiers In fact the influence beshygan befor~thecolonists came to these shores Most of them were Puritans and the Scriptures have been described as the practical and theoretical fountainhead of that movement
Biblical imagery provided the new nation with figuresof speech which have fomed the national consciousriess The titlesof more than 200 no~els and plays writshyten in the uS during a recent 10-year period for instance were taken from the Bible

By Cecilia Jlelange~ Last Febtuaiy President Reashygan proclaimed ~ 1983 a speciai time to reexaniine and redis cover the Bibles priceless and timeless messages
America and the Bible have always had an interesting relashytionship and this year Ive met many young people who want to learn more about this special pookbecause of its impact on US history
Theyve read of how the Bible formed American life through its influence on the earliest setshytiers In fact the influence beshygan befor~thecolonists came to these shores Most of them were Puritans and the Scriptures have been described as the practical and theoretical fountainhead of that movement
Biblical imagery provided the new nation with figuresof speech which have fomed the national consciousriess The titlesof more than 200 no~els and plays writshyten in the uS during a recent 10-year period for instance were taken from the Bible
Ooer262 days a study of New Yark Times editorials revealed 466 Biblical references in 367 editorials
During the summer I jotted down things people t(lld J me about their lives the failure of a marriage Smiddot friena~hip a busishyness many sorrows
And I thought of Jesus WOrds Everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house qn simd th~ rain came down the winds bl~w and it fell with Il crash
One neednt listen too careshyfully to hear the crashes Marrishyages (amilies institutions friendshIps alliances are collapshysing everywhere

Eight C-C sports teams chalkshyed up nine wins in one recent week All varsity teams were victorious with volleyballers bringing in two triumphs
~ay one respects it but not to live accordng to its message will not supply strength in crisis
One must read the Bible for inspiration to be a better person to learn from mothers mistakes Memcgttize the ShepherdP~aim for ipstance ~The Lord is my shepherd (shall not want You will be assuredof comforting wQrds all the days of- your life

New Films Under Fire (Orion) asks in
connection with the 1979 Sanshydinista revolution in Nicaragua if it is right for journalists to make a glamorous career out of other peoples misery and whether they should become participants in events they are supposed to be reporting
Russel Price (Nick Nolte) an American journalist finds that the corruption and brutality in Nicaragua break through his deshytachment Encouraged by Claire (Joanna Cassidy) a fellow journshyalist he agrees to photograph a charismatic Sandinista leader killed in battle as if he were still alive to keep up the morale of
his followers and also to pershysuade the United States thatshysupport of Nicaraguan dictator Anastasio Somoza is futile The situation ends in tragedy for all concerned Powerful controvershysial and entertaining Undlr Fire is mature fare because of

The Jupiter Menace (Celebshyrity Releasing) gleefully tells us that the end of planet Earth is near due to the malign influence of planet Jupiter and relates the preparations of two groups of people for the evil day One the Stel Community is establishing a self-contained community which will hover in the atmosshyphere until the planet is again habitable The other zealous and militaristic is simply holed up in the Ozarks Some violence possibly too frightening for preshyteens A2 PG

promiscuity so much a part of the Bond mystique 0 PG

achieved extraordinary success as a racing car driver Her trishyumphs however have brought her personal heartbreak and bitterness poignantly diepicted A wonderful and entertaining performance is given by Bonnie Bedalia as Shirley Because adultery figures in the plot the film is rated A3 PG
Never Cry Wolf (Walt Disshyney-Buena Vista) In this adaptashytion of a novel by Farley Mowat a government n~turalist (Charles Martin Smith) studies wolves in the Canadian north to see if they are responsible for decimating once abundant caribou herds He finds however that the caribou killed are diseased The scenery is impressive and so are the wolves but the dramatic tension slackens when the film becomes yet another account of rapacious humanity despoiling nature At least one too many views of the heros bare bottom and - fair
- warning to the faint of stomach - there are some scenes of Smith eating mice A2 PG

By Cecilia Jlelange~ Last Febtuaiy President Reashygan proclaimed ~ 1983 a speciai time to reexaniine and redis cover the Bibles priceless and timeless messages
America and the Bible have always had an interesting relashytionship and this year Ive met many young people who want to learn more about this special pookbecause of its impact on US history
Theyve read of how the Bible formed American life through its influence on the earliest setshytiers In fact the influence beshygan befor~thecolonists came to these shores Most of them were Puritans and the Scriptures have been described as the practical and theoretical fountainhead of that movement
Biblical imagery provided the new nation with figuresof speech which have fomed the national consciousriess The titlesof more than 200 no~els and plays writshyten in the uS during a recent 10-year period for instance were taken from the Bible
Ooer262 days a study of New Yark Times editorials revealed 466 Biblical references in 367 editorials
During the summer I jotted down things people t(lld J me about their lives the failure of a marriage Smiddot friena~hip a busishyness many sorrows
And I thought of Jesus WOrds Everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house qn simd th~ rain came down the winds bl~w and it fell with Il crash
One neednt listen too careshyfully to hear the crashes Marrishyages (amilies institutions friendshIps alliances are collapshysing everywhere
Merely to have the Bible to

A special moment for e-C faculty members came recently when they participated in amiddot oneshyday retreat at LaSalette Center for Christian Living All came away with new dedication to their t~ching vocations
Eight C-C sports teams chalkshyed up nine wins in one recent week All varsity teams were victorious with volleyballers bringing in two triumphs
~ay one respects it but not to live accordng to its message will not supply strength in crisis
One must read the Bible for inspiration to be a better person to learn from mothers mistakes Memcgttize the ShepherdP~aim for ipstance ~The Lord is my shepherd (shall not want You will be assuredof comforting wQrds all the days of- your life
Dont read the Bible all at once - try reading a bit every day Read it faithfully and youll find it will put your life in better focus You may even find you cant live without it

New Films Under Fire (Orion) asks in
connection with the 1979 Sanshydinista revolution in Nicaragua if it is right for journalists to make a glamorous career out of other peoples misery and whether they should become participants in events they are supposed to be reporting
Russel Price (Nick Nolte) an American journalist finds that the corruption and brutality in Nicaragua break through his deshytachment Encouraged by Claire (Joanna Cassidy) a fellow journshyalist he agrees to photograph a charismatic Sandinista leader killed in battle as if he were still alive to keep up the morale of
his followers and also to pershysuade the United States thatshysupport of Nicaraguan dictator Anastasio Somoza is futile The situation ends in tragedy for all concerned Powerful controvershysial and entertaining Undlr Fire is mature fare because of

The Jupiter Menace (Celebshyrity Releasing) gleefully tells us that the end of planet Earth is near due to the malign influence of planet Jupiter and relates the preparations of two groups of people for the evil day One the Stel Community is establishing a self-contained community which will hover in the atmosshyphere until the planet is again habitable The other zealous and militaristic is simply holed up in the Ozarks Some violence possibly too frightening for preshyteens A2 PG

promiscuity so much a part of the Bond mystique 0 PG

New Films Under Fire (Orion) asks in
connection with the 1979 Sanshydinista revolution in Nicaragua if it is right for journalists to make a glamorous career out of other peoples misery and whether they should become participants in events they are supposed to be reporting
Russel Price (Nick Nolte) an American journalist finds that the corruption and brutality in Nicaragua break through his deshytachment Encouraged by Claire (Joanna Cassidy) a fellow journshyalist he agrees to photograph a charismatic Sandinista leader killed in battle as if he were still alive to keep up the morale of
his followers and also to pershysuade the United States thatshysupport of Nicaraguan dictator Anastasio Somoza is futile The situation ends in tragedy for all concerned Powerful controvershysial and entertaining Undlr Fire is mature fare because of
violence and rough language A3 R
The Jupiter Menace (Celebshyrity Releasing) gleefully tells us that the end of planet Earth is near due to the malign influence of planet Jupiter and relates the preparations of two groups of people for the evil day One the Stel Community is establishing a self-contained community which will hover in the atmosshyphere until the planet is again habitable The other zealous and militaristic is simply holed up in the Ozarks Some violence possibly too frightening for preshyteens A2 PG
The Lonely Lady (Universal) The fHm version of Harold Robshybinsnovel stars Pia Zadora as a young writer whom happiness eludes as she wins fame and fortune in Hollywood A crass sleazy movie that exploits nudity aDd graphic sex 0 R
Never Say Never Again (Warners) Sean Connery returns to the Bond role after 12 years The plot deals with an aging 007 shunted aside by it new cttief being called upon to reshytrieve two nuclear warheads stolen by a ch~ing sinister villain (~Iaus Maria Jilrandauer) Once the ~ain plot line unfolds all becomes conventional and preshydictable Connery plays hi~ role more realistic~ly than 40es Roger Moore and given this realism there is no way to disshymiss as innocuous the spectacushylar violence and hyperactive
promiscuity so much a part of the Bond mystique 0 PG
Heart Like a Whe2I (Fox)
achieved extraordinary success as a racing car driver Her trishyumphs however have brought her personal heartbreak and bitterness poignantly diepicted A wonderful and entertaining performance is given by Bonnie Bedalia as Shirley Because adultery figures in the plot the film is rated A3 PG
Never Cry Wolf (Walt Disshyney-Buena Vista) In this adaptashytion of a novel by Farley Mowat a government n~turalist (Charles Martin Smith) studies wolves in the Canadian north to see if they are responsible for decimating once abundant caribou herds He finds however that the caribou killed are diseased The scenery is impressive and so are the wolves but the dramatic tension slackens when the film becomes yet another account of rapacious humanity despoiling nature At least one too many views of the heros bare bottom and - fair
- warning to the faint of stomach - there are some scenes of Smith eating mice A2 PG
Romantic Comedy (MGMshyUA) This adaptation of a play about two successful Broadway collaborator~ Dudley Moore and Mary Steenburgen) whose proshyfessionalism eventually advances to romance is mediocre entershytainment less unbearable because of the charm of the principals Adultery figures but it is preshysented as wrong A2 PG
Rumble Fish (Universal) This is an adaptation of yet anshyother C E Hinton novel about youths on their own Matt Dilshylon does what is fast becoming his standard Brando imitation as a teen-ager trying to live up to his brothers bad reputation The brother is played ~y Mickey Rourke a good actor but what could you do if you had to play a character named Motorcycle Boy Dennis Hopper is their drunken father Because of some graphic sex and some nudity the film is rated 0 R Religious Broadcasting - TV
