The magazine cover has an
eye-catching photo with Pfitzer
Memorial bell tower, high
in the

ehted
foreground, against a
black night. sky etched with a
series of concentric rings of
light. The explanation inside
describes the technique
involved

Pointing -his camera at the
Pole Star, Father Joseph, assisted
by Father Christopher, tracked
the stars on the night of August
11-12. They briefly illuminated
the bell tower, then kept the
camera shutter open in the dark
to show the changing position of
the stars.

This unusual photograph is a
quiet salute to Father Jaki, a the-
ologian-physicist who, as the
story on him says, “is one of the
greatest of all modern champi-
ons Of a positive relation of the

monk trom Pannon Holma

Abbey in Hungary and a lecturer
at Seton University in New Jer
sey

He has the rare combination
of doctorates in both theology
and nuclear physics and as being
the author of some thirty books
in science; and as a lecturer at
the University of Edinburgh, has
an unchallenged reputation as a
historian in both disciplines.

He spent four days at the
monastery in late September lec-
turing faculty, students and
guests on cosmological theory
and current speculations on the
age and structure of our finite,
expanding universe.

How I wish I could have been
there! But one cannot have
everything. Dr. Jaki is one of an

Obituary

Helen
Savinkoff

On Monday, November 29,
1993, Helen Savinkoff of Castle
gar, formerly of Winlaw, B.C
Passed away at the age of X4
years

Funeral service was held at
the Castlegar Funeral Chapel on
Wednesday and Thursday with
burial at the Perry Siding
Cemeten

Mrs. Savinkoff was born
December 20, 1908 at Kenora
Saskatchewan and at an early age
moved with her family to Win
law. She married Fred Savinkoff
at Winlaw in 1926. After their
marriage they moved to Thrums
where they lived until 1936 when
they returned to Winlaw. In 1976
she moved to Castlegar where
she has resided since. Mrs
Savinkoff loved gardening, cook-
ing and handi-crafts.

She is survived by one son and
daughter-in-law, Andrew and
Elsie Savinkoff of Winlaw;
daughter, Anne Polonikoff of
Blueberry Creek, B.C.; five
grandchildren; and three great-
grandchildren

She was predeceased by her
parents, husband, Fred; grandson,
Kenneth; and son-in-law, John
Polonikoff, one brother and one
sister.

Funeral arrangements were
under the direction of the Castle-
gar Funeral Chapel

NEW IN TOWN?

LET US PUT
OUT THE MAT
FOR YOU!

be sure to call

tural and occupational diversity
of the community

Brother Thomas Smith (46) for
example was born in England and
has degrees in Classics from Cam.
bridge University, England, and
McMaster University in Toronto
as well as a degree in Law from

Charters

the University of Victoria.

Brothér Patrick O'Hara (49),
born an American in New York,
was a professional photographer
(and a good one) for many years
in Montreal; while Frater (a candi
date for the priesthood) Columba
Castagnoli (28) who has a B.A
degree from the University of Vic
toria was born in Tahiti of an Ital-
ian father and Tahitian mother. All
are charming gentlemen

They will make their final
vows in three years at which time
they become members of the
community for life.

A third long article concerns
an excellent report,

“Future of Religious

was given to the General Chap-
ter by psychologists Father
Nygen and Sister Miriam
Ukerites. No space for it here,
unfortunately, but it deserves a
wider readership.

There are also several diaries
including that of the Guestmaster,
Father Mark Dumont, whose fam-
ily comes from the Kootenays;
the major seminary, the high

school, and the brothers’ diaries

Since the Benedictines have
observed for over 1500 years
the admonition to welcome
strangers. i is not surprising that
the guest list includes groups
from almost every faith as well
as numerous individuals. while
the brothers’ record of summer
activities includes everything
from farming and forestry to
piano restoration and finishing

There is literally nothing that
they cannot turn a hand to
including a very bad pun at the
end which reads: “A slight
mishap in the kitchen brought

Martyn (the assistant cook)

daged left thumb. Not the
least disturbed, she continued her
work, maintaining a “thumbs-up”
attitude.”

The college also granted four
degrees this year, three B.A.'s
and one Master of Divinity, while
the entire community mourned

three pic
tures of old friends - Father Nico-
las, the Swiss Monk and
Jack-of-all-trades, who recently
returned from a year’s study in
Hebrew and Scripture in
Jerusalem.

The operation of vehicles and
farm equipment will improve
immediately. Brother Benedict,
the Chef from the Maritimes is
shown working happily among
his luxuriant cabbages and lettuce
and Father Dunstan - musician,
poet, artist and who has just fin-
ished 20 high relief figures after
ten years of hard work, sculptor,

Ann
Landers

Syndicated
Columnist

Dear Ann Landers: | have just fin
ished reading the letter from “Merved.
Calif.."" who said that her jailbird hus.
band was better off than she was

Tam currently in jail for violating
my probation. | was making $150 a
week, my rent was $120 and gas $20
This left $10 per week for child sup-
pon, car insurance, clothing, food and
other essentials

As the months passed, I became
depressed and couldn't figure out how
'o support my daughter. I figured if I
were dead, she could at least draw my
Social Security until she was 18, So I
attempted suicide, which violated my
Probation. So Iam behind bars now
and I still cannot support her.

That letter from "Merced" made me
mad. We are not better off on the
inside. We have no freedom. We're
told when to get up, when to eat, when
to watch TV, when to shower, when to
g0 to bed and when to make phone
calls. We are locked down three times
a day. Most of us have been waiting
three months just to get our teeth
cleaned and up to a year to get fillings.
Eyeglasses take about six months.
Surgery would take one to three years.

As I write this, I have been waiting
four months for tests that a doctor
ordered for me to find out if I am hav-
ing epileptic seizures. I don't know if
Tl get these tests before I'm released, If
"Merced" wants to trade places with
me, I would gladly do it. -- Behind
Bars in Georgia.

Dear Friend: I received an unex-
pected load of letters from men in
prison, and a disproportionate num-
ber, for some strange reason, came
from Georgia.

Almost everyone who wrote felt
very much as you do and expressed the
wish to change places with "Merced"

My thanks to all who wrote. Here's
a message to each and every one of
you. Remember how dear freedom is.
When you get out. make darned sure
you stay away from the crowd that
helped you get into trouble. Carry this
column as a reminder
