Financial straits: There will definitely be track and field this spring at San Diego State. In a quest to keep the program alive, the Aztec track team has raised $121,000 in the past eight weeks. The bad news is that another $121,000 must be raised by late March in order to continue track into the 1991 season. Cross country has already been given the green light for next fall. Seeing birds: The astro turf on the Boise State field is painted blue. The players call it "Smurf Turf." Unfortunately, from the sky it looks like a lake, which has caused grave problems for some bombard- ing birds.

In addition there are weekly adult Bible studie session, and an "Enquirer's Class" for persons who want to re- turn to Catholicism or who v.ant to join the Catholic fallh. Aside from the pro- grams and improvements to ihe church, Father Eng- land seeks to strengthen the spiritual tic that bind the people who worship together. "To me it's very impor- tant to come together as a parish, a family in faith and in caring for one another," he said. "Then I think God can work with us and work through us be- , cau. e we're open to Him." Before coming to Holt- ville. Father England serv- ed at various parishes in California and received his first assignment as pastor at St, Mark's parish in San Marcos. "My former parish at St. Mark's has adopted St. Joseph's as a sister parish," be said. "We're getting back on our feet thanks to the generosity a; St. Mark's."

Maher attended yesterday's coun- cil meeting. Strachan, who is out of town, could not be reached for com- ment. Critics of her appointment contend that USO, founded by the diocese in 1949, has compromised its Catholici- ty because her views are contrary to the teachings of the Catholic Church. The university contends that it demonstrates its fidelity to Catholi- cism through the presence of a cam- pus ministry and through the posi- tions of prominence held by Catholic members of the faculty and adminis- tration, among other ways. Dr. Author E. Hughes, USO presi- dent, said in a statement this week that the assertion that USO is Jess Catholic than it should be is "mis- guided." However, the Rev. Wil. m Moo- ney, the Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church pastor who publicly urged the Presbyteral Council to take up the Strachan matter, said he had received "a lot of telephone calls" from Catholics thanking him for pub- licly calling for her ouster.

Indiana. He then went through a year's prepara- tion as deacon at Our Lady of Los Angeles in San Die- go. He was ordained as priest in 1977. "I like Mother Teresa's motto, 'Do something beau ti fol for God.' Reach out to your fellow parish- ioner," he said. He ex- plained that this is a never- ending effort and that no church or community can ever think its work is done in this respect. "We live in a very selfish society, we get the impres- sion that people are out for themselves ... charity and love of God is the issue. Giving comes out of that."

San Diego priests have been invit- ed to write letters to Bishop Leo T. Maher expressing their views on con- troversial UnivetSID7 of San Diego Law School Dean KrTstiiiemracban. "Many pnests have thoughts on the subject they think that he should be aware of," the Rev. Msgr. Richard F. Duncanson, diocesan chancellor, said yesterday after a Presbyteral Council meeting at St. Francis Semi- nary. The Presbyteral Council is an or- ganization of San Diego priests that advises the bishop. Strachan's appointment as dean of the Catholic university's law school has been criticized by San Diego Catholics who consider her stand on abortion to be incompatible with the teachings of the Catholic Church, which condemns abortion as immo-

In a Jetter challenging the article and published in the Aug. 22 editions of The Tribune, Strachan said she be- lieves that abortion is "morally wrong," but that in a country where abortion is legal, women have the right to an abortion "without im- posed intrusion of the government." Yesterday, the Presbyteral Coun- cil went behind closed doors to dis- cuss the matter. ''We're somewhat limited in what we can tell people, but what we can say 1s that it was discussed in execu- tive session," Duncanson said. "The matter was brought up in executive session, and the bishop has asked for letters to be sent to him concerning the issue." t, Please see DEAN: B-5,}_ol. 3
