Bernard O'Keefe, a staff member at the CIC in Toronto. Father O'Keefe suggested that a centre be a project for Osh- awa Catholics at the monthly meeting of the Catholic Men's Luncheon Club which meets at the Hotel Genosha. The speaker outlined the role of the CIC in the diocese and the role that the Church, as a whole, should play in the life of aspects of the church life which they did not understand, Father O'Keefe stated that many peo- ple believed that Catholics wor- shipped statues and also thought; that the spreading of incense was the main act of worship. "The establishment of the CIC bas brought enlightenment to many people," Father O'Keefe' continued, "and has acted as neutral ground on which people can discover what the church means and teaches," The speaker explained that the average non-Catholic sees the church as a _ monolithic structure and fails to under- stand that the church is, in fact, the average parish life which goes on around us, REFLECT WHOLE CHURCH "The functionof the CIC is to reflect the light of the whole church," he said, "and means the whole church in this community, The church is in Oshawa in a vital way and a CIC could show the church's spirit in a notable way.

He is 67 - year-old Dennis Diachenko, 464 Athol east, for the past 12 years a_ building maintenance man at the Bond street United Auto Workers hall. At an informal ceremony Thursday, Dennis was _pre- sented with a luxurious easy chair by Local 222 members. He has worked at the UAW hall for the past twelve years and for six years prior to that at a local hotel. Soon after he came to Can- ada from the Ukraine in 1914 he found work with the Abitibi Pulp and Paper plant. A mem- ber of the Pulp and Paper Workers' union, he served for a period as a shop steward. He worked with Abitibi for some 34 years. He has been a member of Local 222, UAW, since he came to work as an employee of the union. ' "The union is my heart," he boasted Thursday. "I plan to die a union man." Dennis plans to spend a large part of his retirement seated in his new chair watching tele- He explained that the 00+ ple could get closer a with non-Catholics as they were not as obviously "different" as priests, The speaker added that this meant that a greater inter- est in the faith and the person who expounded Catholic dogma and practice was shown. Father O'Keefe said that the CIC also handled many tele- phone calls from curious and enquiring people, He stated that calls came from as far away as Barrie and Penetanguishene, A library is also open to ail who wish to discover the facts of the faith, Father O'Keefe added, "it is an aid in the process which results in the tenuous and gossamer beginnings of true, faith", "One place where the church has failed has been in the fail ure to communicate,"' he ended, "but the days of the catacombs have gone and now is the time for we Catholics to work to- gether," The st was introd by Bernard Monaghan and thanked by Gregory Kane, $950 Damage In 3 Accidents Three crashes on Oshawa streets, Thursday, resulted in a total of $950 property damage.

During the two world wars, the association rallied the Uk- rainian population to support the war effort by buying war bonds, sponsoring drives and aiding the American Red Cross and the USO.
