Title: Reform Judaism produces commentary on Torah.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: J-46602 REFORM JUDAISM PRODUCES COMMENTARY ON TORAH NEW YORK -- Rabbi W. Gunther Plaut of Holy Blossom Temple, Toronto, examines Volume I of the first commentary on the Torah ever to be produced by Reform Judaism in North America. Done under the auspices of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, the Commentary on Genesis took four years to produce. Rabbi Plaut wrote the commentary with the assistance of Professors Stanley Gevirtz and William W. Hallo of Yale University and Matitiahu Tsevat of the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion. Although every program of Jewish education teaches Torah, few texts combine the elements of Hebrew, translation and commentary in the manner of the new work. Each book of the Torah is divided into six sections -- an introductory note, the original Hebrew, the new translation of the Jewish Publication Society, a brief commentary on the text with a discussion of the section’s major theme or themes, and a section of “Gleanings.” The gleanings are quotations and excerpts from a wide variety of sources, including the Koran and the writings of such literary figures as Shakespeare and John Milton. “This commentary takes the religious approach,” Rabbi Plaut said. “It recognizes the touch of the Divine, but it also takes cognizance of the latest scientific research. It represents the teaching tradition of Israel.” He explained that “our commentary disagrees with traditional interpreters over divine origin and Mosaic authorship, but it does agree with them on treating the text as it is, a unified whole, for it was approached this way by many generations and, in this way, it has made its impact on history.” Volume I of the commentary, published Jan. 15, will be available at $12.50 in hardcover and $7.50 in paperback.

Title: Idaho 'dissident' Catholics appeal court ruling.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: C-46639 IDAHO ‘DISSIDENT’ CATHOLICS APPEAL COURT RULING COEUR D’ALENE, Idaho -- A group of dissident Catholics, who reject Pope Paul and the teachings of Vatican II and who now live an austere, devotional life in Northern Idaho, has appealed a court ruling in Ohio awarding $96,000 in judgements to two men who claimed the movement alienated their wives. The appeal was filed by lawyers for Our Lady of Fatima Crusade, which is based at the farm-centered City of Mary near Rathdrum, Idaho, about 20 miles northwest of Coeur d’Alene. It asked that the judgements against the Crusade and its leader, the non-accredited Bishop Francis Schuckardt (right photo), be set aside. Two brothers, Joseph and Henry Radecki of Toledo, Ohio, won the judgements after claiming in a suit in Lucas County (Ohio) court that the Crusade and Bishop Schuckardt alienated the affections of their wives by inducing them to leave their husbands and join the Idaho Crusade. The Crusade is often mistakenly linked with the Blue Army of Our Lady of Fatima, based in Washington, N.J. According to the local Coeur d’Alene newspaper, Bishop Schuckardt was once international secretary of the Blue Army, but broke away and founded the Fatima Crusade in 1967. A spokesman for the Blue Army said that Bishop Schuckardt’s claim of having been international secretary of the Blue Army is “false,” and that he worked for the Blue Army briefly as a developer of Blue Army “cells” around the country, but was eventually “fired.” He said that Bishop Schuckardt was a layman and not a priest, and had no idea how the Crusade leader received the title of bishop. Bishop Sylvester Treinen of Boise, whose diocese encompasses all of Idaho, has declared that because the Fatima Crusaders reject Pope Paul they can no longer be considered members of the Roman Catholic Church. At left, women members of the Crusade, dressed in long peasant-type costumes, stand and kneel outside the church in the City of Mary. Crusade members reportedly show special devotion to the Virgin Mary and follow literally the contents of the “Fatima message,” and strenuously object to the use of the vernacular in the Mass. They are strongly anti-Communist, reject public schools, discourage recreational activities, stress spiritual development, operate their own “Catholic” schools, and encourage members to become “sisters” and “brothers.” Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (RVJ-IDA-1C-75-DS)

Edelin (right), a Boston City Hospital physician charged with manslaughter in the death of an aborted fetus, looks on as his attorney, William Homans, talks with reporters outside Suffolk Superior Court in Boston where his trial is taking place. Dr. Edelin is charged with manslaughter for allegedly assaulting and killing a fetus 24 to 28 weeks old. The case could produce a potential landmark decision on the viability of a fetus and when it becomes entitled to legal protection, a key issue left unresolved in the U.S. Supreme Court’s 1973 decision. The Supreme Court ruled that state governments can forbit only abortions “subsequent to viability.” However, it would only state “viability is usually placed at about seven months (28 weeks), but may occur earlier, even at 24 weeks.” Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (B-BOS-1B-75-DS)

Title: Doubles as dealer.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: C-46568 DOUBLES AS A DEALER LAS VEGAS -- Father Thomas Higgins, S.J., can usually be found on the campus of Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, where he is an assistant chaplain and a professor. But during the Summer and school vacations, he can be found at the Royal Inn Casino in Las Vegas, where he is a blackjack dealer. The 42-year-old Jesuit priest feels he is carrying his message to the people. “You can’t preach Christ if your experience is entirely different from that of other people,” he says. “If priests were cab drivers or bus drivers or if they took different jobs, they would be much more to all kinds of people.” Father Higgins’ customers at the casino get his good counsel, although they seldom find out that the man behind the red satin tie is a priest. “Sometimes I tell people, ‘You’re drunk. Why don’t you go home? You’re going to drop your whole load,’” he said. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (A-LA-12D-74-DS)

The cardinal hosted the party for the children of the New York Foundling Hospital and other child care programs of Catholic Charities. Cardinal Cooke personally greeted all those in attendance to wish them a blessed Christmas and to express his gratitude for their generosity to the many youngsters who benefit from the proceeds of the annual affair. The party included entertainment by comedian Sam Levenson, the cardinal sang “Love Makes the World Go Round” solo and “Come All Ye Faithful” with Julius La Rosa, and Santa Claus was on hand with gifts for the children.

Title: Love loafs' to raise money for relief.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-44998 'LOVE LOAFS' TO RAISE MONEY FOR RELIEF FOR RELEASE: Dec. 15, 1973 MONROVIA, Calif. -- A new program that will enable churches to further assist people in crisis areas of the world has been developed by World Vision International. Based on a small bank called the "Love Loaf," the program is available for immediate implementation in denominations, individual churches or individual families. The focal point of the program is the Love Loaf, which is designed to placed on a family's table at mealtime. Members of the family place their change in the small ceramic bank, as illustrated in the top photo. If a local church is conducting the program, the loaves when filled with money are brought to the church and collected. The churches will control the distribution of 60 percent of the funds, designating the remaining 40 percent for World Vision to help support its ministry of emergency relief work in the developing nations. Families may also send a check or money order in the amount of the Love Loaf's contents directly to World Vision, a non-profit, interdenominational Christian humanitarian agency.

Title: Concerned over adult conversion rate.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-45132 CONCERNED OVER ADULT CONVERSION RATE OMAHA -- After Dr. Clinton Marsh became moderator of the United Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A. in 1973, he couldn't believe the nationwide figures on adult conversions. He found that in 1972, 8,786 United Presbyterian churches baptized 12, 729 adults, an average of 1.4 in each congregation. "I went back to see if the figure wasn't 127,000 instead," the Omaha clergyman said in an interview. The first figure was correct and it was roughly one-third the 1958 conversion rate, which Dr. Marsh said "was not aggressive either, so see, we've got reason to be concerned." · Church membership in 1972 slipped below three million, declining three percent in a year and dropping 10 per cent below the 1963 peak of 3.2 million. Some church members will blame the low rate of adult conversions on social-action programs of the last decade, believing the church has gotten away from its original purpose, Dr. Marsh said. Yet, there are fewer persons leaving the denominations now than in 1958 when the church was not as heavily involved in humanitarian programs. He sees signs of a resurgence in evangelism but is cautious about the direction it is taking. If the emphasis is on saving an individual's soul without correcting the wrongs of society, Dr. Marsh does not believe it will be a healthy trend.

Title: Report on interfaith mission to Israel.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-45073 REPORT ON INTERFAITH MISSION TO ISRAEL BOSTON -- Three religious leaders representing the Christian and Jewish faiths report on their 10-day study mission to Israel at a Boston news conference. Dr. Gene E. Bartlett, Father Robert W. Bullock and Rabbi Murray I. Rothman (left to right) participated in the first greater Boston ecumenical mission sponsored by three local groups -- the Interfaith Committee of the Jewish Community Council of Metropolitan Boston, National Conference of Christians and Jews, and the Catholic-Jewish Committee of the Archdiocesan Ecumenical Commission. Dr. Bartlett, pastor of the First Baptist church in Newton, Mass., is president of the American Baptist Churches in the U.S.A.

Title: Churchmen run car pool.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-45133 CHURCHMEN RUN CAR POOL MONTCLAIR, N.J. -- It is a typical weekday morning at Watchung Plaza in Montclair, N.J. -- the "rendezvous point" for commuters who ride the car pool to the Interchurch Center in New York City. The Rev. J. Martin Bailey, editor of A.D. magazine, stands on the sidewalk dispatching the 30 or so church executives and secretaries into the three station wagons owned by the pool. Dr. Tracey Jones, a United Methodist official, prepares to drive one of the cars on the 22-mile ride to work. So begins another morning operation of the Montclair Riverside Car Pool, Inc., one of the oldest and most successful car pools in the area. Members of the pool buy one share of corporation stock (currently valued at $95, up from the initial $1 price offering in 1962 when the group became incorporated). The monthly charge is $30 a person, which is estimated to be less than half the cost of using public transportation for the round trip. Mr. Bailey, whose magazine is published jointly by the United Church of Christ and the United Presbyterian Church, said the Interchurch Center has a large number of car pools and first priority is given to the pools for parking facilities. The Montclair car pool believes that by operating three station wagons -- instead of the 25 or more individual cars -- they are conserving more than 500 gallons of gasoline a week.
