Television watching "permeates our
culture" but it can be used effectively in
religious education.
Rev. James F. Hawker, the director of
religious education with the archdiocese off
Boston, gave the above quote and suggested
ways to use television. He was speaking at
St. Boniface Separate School in Zurich to
Huron and Perth separate school teachers
plus parents, nuns and members of the
clergy.
Father Hawker said one of the best ways
to deal with the television phenomenon is to
use it creatively. He told of how he had ob-
tained television equipment for use by inter-
city schools in Boston, Mass.
"Then they (students) come to know the
medium," said Father Hawker.
Talking to teachers about television, the
Catholic priest suggested creative ways to
use the television in religion classes.
One way is to view programs during
religion class with a discussion period
following, whereby the students' thoughts
Car totalled,
but man escapes
CLINTON - A Goderich man escaped
serious injury this week when he was in an
accident that demolished his 1984 Mazda.
The Goderich OPP reported that Russell
Jessop, 29, of Goderich was driving north on
Highway 8, just south of Huron Road 1 on
Nov. 6 when the accident occurred.
The Jessop vehicle left the highway,
entered the east shoulder and struck a steel
post. The car then rolled over several times
and came to rest in the east ditch. Damage
to the car was estimated at $14,000.
Jessop escaped with minimual injuries.

and feelings are probed.
Projects can be assigned based on televi-
sion programs incorporating other subjects.
Art, is one example where scenes from a
program may be painted or English where
an essay may be written on various aspects
of the program.
Combining television watching with a
Catholic education, Father Hawker said
certain realities have to be acknowledged.
One such reality is based on TV advertising,
particularily what the Boston priest calls
"Saturday morning" commercials.
Aimed at children, these commercials can
make "materialistic consumers" out of the
children, but Father Hawker said a sense off
the simplicity of life or spiritual poverty
should be emphasized.
Father Hawker also had some television
viewing hints for parents. Limiting the
hours of television watched was one com-
mon hint, presented by the priest, but the
most important hint noted was that parents
should talk about TV programs with their
children.
Another hint for television watching by
Father Hawker, "stress the value of the off
button".
