Record Type: Press Release

Text: Ottawa - A brief on educational broadcasting which contradicts some of the recommendations submitted by Secretary of State, Judy LaMarsh, two weeks ago, was submitted today by members of three religious denominations.; The parliamentary committee on broadcasting, films and assistance to the arts were told by members of the Anglican, United and Roman Catholic churches that educational broadcasting must extend beyond instructional television to include cultural and informational programming for all age levels.; The brief urges that all unused VHF (Very High Frequency) channels be reserved immediately for the development of educational television for a period of at least five years. It also suggests legislation be passed requiring all new television set to be equipped with the UHF (Ultra High Frequency) band.; The brief is endorsed by the Anglican Church National Executive Council, the United Church General Council and the Commissions on Education and Communication of the Roman Catholic Church.; Joining in the presentation were Rev. Peter Meggs, communications director and Mrs. Nancy MacNeill, executive television producer, both of the Anglican Church of Canada; Rev. Keith Woollard, director of broadcasting and Dr. Frank Fidler, associate secretary of the board of Christian education, both of the United Church of Canada and Rev. Edmond J. Roche, director of the national education office of the Canadian Catholic Conference.; Miss Judy LaMarsh stressed that provincial educational authorities should have absolute priority on the transmitting facilities of ETV. The brief by the three churches urges that community interests be strongly represented in ETV administrative organizations by volunteer agencies and community bodies, as well as departments of education, colleges and universities.; The churches' brief also urges that educational broadcasting include general cultural and informational programming in addition to instructional material. Miss LaMarsh said that the objective of ETV programming is "the systematic acquisition or improvement of knowledge" with the participants' results ascertained by examinations, supervision or checking.; Representatives of the churches told the committee that persons at home, as well as children in school, should have access to educational programming and recommended VHF channels should be included in educational programming. Most of the television broadcasting in Canada has been confined to the VHF band of channels.; Miss LaMarsh said the federal government believes ETV facilities should be developed on the UHF band, although this would not mean that UHF bands would all be devoted to educational television.; At present, existing television sets can be modified to receive UHF bands at cost ranging from $25 to $50. In the churches' brief, it is suggested that consideration be given to converting present sets at public expense and to a temporary reduction in the federal tax on UHF sets.; - 30 -; Jerrold F.

Notes: Text of a message from the Rt. Rev. Riah Hanna Abu El-Assal, Bishop in Jerusalem, announcing the death of Archdeacon Salem Dawani who died at the age of 64. "He came from Nablus, in the northern West Bank, but lived all his life as a refugee in Jordan. He served the congregations in Salt, Jordan and most recently in Amman. He was well known to be a very committed and faithful priest, and was especially respected for pastoral care. He was rector of The Redeemer Church in Amman, which has a congregation of 1700. At a time such as this, people with the experience and unique skills of Archdeacon Salem are badly needed. His passing creates a vacuum in our ministry that will be difficult to fill."

Page: 18-19

Notes: "As suggested by the title, the author is particularly concerned with the question of transformation. Who or what is transformed and from what to what ? Crockett clearly believes that it is the community and not the bread and wine that are ultimately transformed, although the two are not exclusive". In addition, "he offers a comprehensive overview of Eucharistic tradition, tracing the cultural differences at work in some theologies, and reflecting always on the life of the worshipping community. It is well-written and a suitable resource for parish libraries as well as priests' bookshelves".
