'Half-million dollar man' One week before winning the Charge 'n Chug Chari ties Run, Jeff Smith cashed in at the Las Vegas Super Run to the tune of a half-million dollars. Normally the soft-spoken, Olympic-bound runner wouldn't schedule another race so soon after another - let alone the Las Vegas race that catapulted him to national prominence. But Smith, 24, responded to an appeal from Dennis Neal, director of resource development for Catholic Community Services, to lend excitement to the field at the Charge 'n Chug. Smith's wife had worked with Neal when she was a member of the catholic Youth Or ganization which Neal beaded for many years. " This is a worthwhile cause," Smith told The Register, " so I was willing to come even though it was so soon after the other race." Smith is a junior at the University of Colorado, Boulder, majoring in biology and is a member of St. Thomas Aquinas University Parish. Smith, his wife, and two children live in university housing. Smith's future may include the Olympic trials. He is working his way back into running following a six year lay-off for injuries. Smith's $500,000 Las Vegas purse will be paid over 50 years with trust funds established so he can maintain his amateur athletic standing, according to Bill Michaels, a Denver-area race organizer. e n· .," . id 1e yl / .

In fact, he is becoming more deeply engrossed in events and issues surrounding the controversial war - its victims and its veterans. That is why he decided to attend the dedi cation ceremonies of the newly-sculpted war memorial un veiled at Holy Ghost Church on Memorial Day, 1986. Early that morning, Thompson donned his combat in fantry jacket and hat, picked up his two-year-old son, Joshua, and headed for downtown Denver where they first watched the Memorial Day parade and then proceeded to the Church grounds to listen to the poignant words of dedi cation of an 11-foot bronze statue portraying the ultimate sacrifice of war - a soldier in a body bag. " The memorial is not offensive to me," Thompson said candidly, " because it is reality. Death is the reality of war... I was one of the lucky ones - I came home." Thompson talks readily - almost compulsively - about his Vietnam duty and the difficult, shaky years that followed. Long haul " It's been a long, tough haul," he said simply. Thompson was a young, energetic youth of 18 when he joined the Army in 1969 - overflowing with idealism and " rarin' to go." Firat and Shipped to Vietnam a year later, his heroic dreams were soon dashed as he came face to face with the devas tating trauma of war as a member of a patrol team search ing the booby-trapped Tiger Mountains for the deadly enemy. Blessedly, he said, he contracted malaria, bringing 'I, an abrupt end to his combat days in exchange for a long hospital recuperation. When Thompson was released from the Army in 1973 and returned to Kansas where he had left his family, there Gle was no way to foresee the long journey of pain that was to follow - years racked with broken marriages, unemploy ment and bouts with alcohol and drugs - an emotional roller-coaster besought with fear, anger, frustration and doubt.

There is something for nearly everyone. From a chance to water ski - at 8,000 feet up - at Steamboat Lake State Park near the resort town of Steamboat Springs to the unique flooded canyon lands of Pueblo or Navajo State Recreation Areas. From the solitude of Colorado State Forest's 70,000 acres to the convenience of Cherry Creek and Chatfield State Recreation Areas, both just 30 minutes form downtown Denver. In all, the Colorado Division of Parks and Outdoor Recreation administers 27 state parks and recreation areas - a total of 140,000 acres of land and 21,000 acres of water. Whether fishing for rainbow trout in a clear mountain lake on a country morning, camping in the pines, hiking the high country or sailing, or board surfing across the surface of a high plains reservoir, the choices of recreational op portunities at Colorado's state parks are as big as the country itseH. State parks have modern facilities as well as primitive backcountry. They are family-oriented, safe and well-main tained. Each of the state's parks and recreation areas has its own distinctive geographic and ecological charac teristics. But there is no substitute for you and your family discovering them for yourselves Camping Whether you prefer the luxury of RV camping or a totally primitive backcountry experience, there's a rec reation area for you. Campers near Denver and Boulder will find Cherry Creek, Chatfield and Golden Gate Canyon State Parks convenient. 1Con1tnu•d on Pagip 23 1 IT'S HIGH· TIME Time Out For Two Everyone needs some time out now and then, and at the Breckenridge Hilton we make it so easy and .--YOU JOINED affordable.

I was moved, as were the other priests to gaze at the painting over the altar showing Jesus raising the young man to life. The compassion of Jesus shines forth in this event as perhaps in no other event in the gospel series of heatings, because no one asked him to do anything! Nairn was a day's journey from Capernaum, where Jesus made his "headquarters" at Peter's house for some time. Nairn was also near the place where the prophet Elisha bad raised another mother's son. Elisha's story is told in 2 Kings 4: 18-37. In those days, in a funeral procession, all would be walking to the place of entombment (usually some sort of natural cave) headed by a band of professional mourners with flutes and cymbals. People would openly moan and cry out sounds of grief This particular funeral was expecially heart-rending because this young man was an only son and therefore the sole support of his widowed mother. His death also meant the end of the family line. Luke says that the Lord was deeply moved at this sight. A mother's tears for an only son is a sight that would move anyone. Here we might say that the window's tea.rs were her prayer. Prayer is more than words; it is opening the heart to God. Who can think of more profoundly human way of expressing the joy or sorrow in the heart than tears? Jesus' response to the prayer tears is to respond, "Do not weep." He touched the bier in such a way that the A trip through the universe bearers stood still. The bier was not a casket such as we use but possibly a wicker-type basket for carrying the body Students at St. Vincent de Paul School act out their roles as the nine planets In the universe.

He confronts the powers Saturn, Jan Kllnowskl as Neptune, Christine Kohn as Uranus and Carol Umstead as Pluto. of death and they must yield to life He speaks with authority; He speaks simply, and the effect of His word is immediate and full. The kingdom of God that Jesus preach ed means nothing less than deliverance from death! Luke's medical background comes to the fore here in that the Greek word Luke uses for "sat up" is the technical Report says today's priests word for a patient sitting up in bed. Jesus returns the dead (son) to the living (mother). The reaction of the people sees Jesus like the prophet older and happier Elijah (1 Kings 17-23). Jesus, like Elijah and Elisha, claimed for God what the powers of death had claimed for WASHINGTON (NC> - Today's US Catholic rn 1985 priests of all age groups were consider their own and thereby established their prophetic credi priests tend to be older and happier with their life and ably more likely to encourage young men to enter the bility beyond a shadow of a doubt The " fear" of v.16 is an work than they were 15 years ago, Catholic University priesthood than they have been in 1970, Hoge said. awesome reverence in the presence of a divine action.
