MARIST hits the road Friday night in hopes of breaking a four game losing streak when they play Sylvan High at Che ney Stadium. BY BRUCE M. WILKINSON (N.C.W.C. NEWS SERVICE) SEGUNDO, Colo,— What hap pens to a one-industry town when the one industry pulls out? For many American com munities, the answer has been different, in large part be cause of the efforts of a dy namic priest who believes that neither men nor communities are down and out unless they think they are, SANGRE DE Cristo Enter prises, Inc., is the name of the project launched in 1961 by Father George T. Andrews, s.j„ in response to the economic disaster that threat ened when the nearby Frederick coal mine closed down. The project is a chicken cooperative which in its three years in operation has demon strated to its 200 members— most of them older former miners— that they are some thing more than coal digging robots. They have learned that they are capable of han dling other jobs effectively and that* united, they can do many things they wouldn't have dared contemplate before. But growth for its own sake is not the aim of Sangre de Cristo Enterprises. “We'll buy Cristo Enterprises, “We want privately owned poultry farms," Father Andrews says. “We’ll buy for a man and mar ket for him, but he'll be his own producer. We don't want to dominate anybody. We want to help a man trying to make a living." PRESENTLY the cooperative has 3,000 laying hens that pro duce 38 to 40 cases of eggs weekly for sale in stores in nearby Trinidad, seat of South eastern Colorado’s Las Animas County. What the leaders of Sangre de Cristo Enterprises want is the establishment even tually of up to 15 privately op erated poultry farms in the Valdez-Segundo area of Stone wall Valley. Operators of each of each of these units, with about 3,000 layers each, would benefit by buying their feed through the co-op and have an assured market by producing under the well known and es teemed label of Sangre de Cristo Enterprises, These poultrymen, for whom a thorough- going 16- week course in poultry-raising was held in 1963 under the Area Redevelopment plan of the federal government in co operation with Trinidad Junior College, would be able to clear at least $80 a week. But what of the accomplish ments so far of Sangre de Cristo Enterprises? IT IS considered one of the keystones in the overall plan for renewing the deteriorated economy of the entire county, which has slipped from a po pulation peak of nearly 39,000 in 1920 at the height of coal mining prosperity to 19,983 in 1960 before the closing of the Frederick mine, “What we can do for the com munity is put fighting spirit into it," says Father Andrews proudly. In his view, "our big gest problem is psychological. If a person is discouraged he doesn't even feel like shaving. He’s men .ally sick. If you've got a community that’s sick- then the most important thing is psychological rejuvenation." “All people are sort of con cerned about this poverty deal. They don't know what to do. There are 100 ways to skin the cat. Don't worry about the best way, just get a knife and start in and you'll get that cat skinned," Members Jof the St. Ignatius parish here began skinning the cat in their own way on New Year’s Day, 1961, acting under the impetus of a well-founded rumor that the huge mine was not to be reopened. Following a sermon by Father Andrews in which he scourged the idea that the Stonewall Valley was a “depressed area" and main tained that "only men are de pressed," Alfonso Sandoval, assistant foreman of the mine, appeared in the sacristy to ask for a special meeting of the St. Ignatius Society. TWO NIGHTS later, 29 men accepted the challenge of keep ing the community from being curshed by the impact of the predicted mine closing. Out of that first meeting came a resolution favoring formation of a non-profit cooperative, open to all regardless of religion. Meetings followed and even tually a close relationship deve loped with the Las Animas County Commission for Area Redevelopment, the Agriculture Department’s local county agent and Colorado State University, The group was not long in learn ing of an opportunity that had gone largely untapped by private industry, Colorado, which has traditionally prided itself on its agricultural diversity, was im porting 65% of the eggs consum ed within its borders, and Las Animas county was buying 90% of its eggs from outside the county. - It was found that the small farms in the area were suited to poultry production and favor ed by a plentiful supply of good water. The members of the co operative, who had had limited experience with their little acreages as sidelines for many years, were interested in raising chickens and producing eggs. ACQUAINTED with these favorable conditions, Bishop Charles Buswell of Pueblo ap proved the expenditure of $5,000 in St. Ignatius parish funds to start the project. First project undertaken by the charter members, long be fore production was possible, was construction of a brooder house in the spring of 1961, three growing houses , two laying houses and a processing plant. By Nov. 1, 1961, pro duction of eggs began. Door- to-door delivery in Trinidad brought with it an increasing stream of cash with which to oil the co-op’s machinery. In the first five months 240,000 eggs were sold. Nearly 8,000 man-hours of labor was donated to build facilities during the first full year of activity. FRESH EGGS, ANYONE?

PIONEER CATHOLICS Couple Die Within The Same Week Charles Francis Sutherland of LaGrange, died Saturday, less than a week after the death of his wife, Katherine Sheehan Shutherland. The Sutherlands, who belonged to St. Peter's par ish, were well known in Catho lic circles in the area, and it was in their home that Sun day Mass was offered before there was a Catholic church in LaGrange. They had been living with their daughter, Mrs. Phil Sheraden, at 505 Syl van Drive, Macon, at the time of their deaths. Requiem Mass for Mr. Suth erland was offered at St. Joseph’s, Macon, by Father Ed ward R. Frank, followed by bur ial in Rose HUl Cemetery.

Survivors, in addition to Mrs. Sheraden, include another daughter, Mrs. Robert McNulty of Birmingham, Mich,, and a son, Charles Eugene Sutherland of Lafayette, La. There are 12 grandchildren. Taught At Belmont, Dies In Savannah Since then output has ranged to one million eggs a year and more. In 1963 the gross pro fit was $10,000. THE GROUP has enjoyed the blessing of the Trinidad-Las Animas County Chamber of Commerce, government agen cies, private grocers and the buying public, particularly when it became evident the eggs were of uniformly high quality. It has been determined that the de mand in Trinidad alone is equal to at least six or seven times the current production of the central cooperative egg farm. Father Brendan John Dooley, O. S.
