The Mulhollands - Paddi with an "i" and Tony with a "y"

I really had an enjoyable evening when I called on Paddi and Tony Mulholland last Sunday. They are a delightful and entertaining couple, ideally matched, who are so busy making other people happy that they have no time left to moan or complain. Into show business in a big way, they have spent most of their lives surrounded by dancing, singing, music and laughter. Their children, Ian 14 and Ruth 9, have always been part of the entertain-ment scene, attending rehearsals and familiarising them-selves with 'flys', sound effects and trap doors through which wicked witches disappear.

Paddi, a Dubliner, started to learn ballet at the age of four. It was the beginning of a career in the dancing world where she worked for fourteen wonderful years as a professional dancer. During this time, the Gaiety and the Olympia became almost like home and the place where she met Alice Delgarno and Babs de Monte. Paddi admits she owes a lot of her production expertise to the guidance of these two ladies.

Tony was born in Dublin but lived for some years in Dundalk. It was there that he first became interested in musicals. He went to see the show Oklahoma and remembers that the admission price was two shillings ancl sixpence! (12V2p.) He was smitten by the lure of the foot-lights and in no time at all, Tony's splendid baritone voice enhanced the 'cast' of The Student Prince. It was the offer of a permanent job with the ESB that brought him back to Dublin. However, the urge to sing was still strong and as this couldn't be accomplished in daytime hours it became an evening and week-end occupation.

"How" I asked "did you meet each other? They laughed. "In the side wings of the Olympia Theatre at a rehearsal for the pantomime - it was the 1st December." "I never got a proper proposal" said Paddi, "he just told me it was about time we got married"! They did so, after

a stint of nineteen weeks cabaret in Clontarf Castle. It would be impossible to name all the shows in which

Paddi was involved. These included Pantomime and Gaels of Laughter (Maureen Potter), Easter Revues with Cecil Sheridan and summer shows with Jack Cruise who was a favourite of hers and a friend to Paddi and Tony until his sudden death in the late 70s. Apparently his company was like one big happy family. Tony too had many successes in musicals. He played the King in The King and I, Finian in Finian's Rainbow, Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof and Alfie Doolittle in My Fair Lady. He smiles when he says "I'm waiting for a few more MATURE parts to turn up." He is hoping to direct some shows quite soon so we can expect great things in the future. Apart from his musical interests Tony is also Secretary of Electicaid the Third World Fund in the E.S.B., and occupies the Treasurer's position in the South Dublin Constituency of The Labour Party.

Despite their hectic lives, Paddi and Tony find time for charity work, fund raising through Fashion Shows which Paddi directs and choreographs. Mary McKnight is her partner and colleague who helps to make these shows a success. They are held in the Spawell and the next one is in aid of the Carer ' s Association. Local shops and boutiques from The Square will be supplying the clothes. Paddi uses amateur models aged from four to eighty (her words) and initiates them into the intricacies of walking down the catwalk. It is a sad fact of life that not all of us have the figure of a Naomi Campbell or legs two yards long, so the models are all shapes and sizes and give us a much better idea of how clothes will look on us.

Paddi also keeps busy adjudicating the competition Cream of the County which is a Tops' type entertain-ment by amateurs. She is also a well-known teacher of ballet, modern Jazz, and Tap dancing, holding adult classes in Ballyroan and Sandymount. She also teaches with Clodagh Martin at the Castleknock School of Dance. At the moment they are busily preparing for the next Inter-national Dance Congress to be held on 29th and 30th October in the Grand Hotel, Malahide. Demonstrations include Ballet, Jazz, Latin, Irish and the History of Dance. Paddi is a member of the I.S.T.D. and is qualified as a dancing teacher of Ballet and Modern Jazz. Her energy is boundless and so is Tony's. Before we met they had just returned from auditions where Paddi had interviewed 130 prospective competitors for the bronze and silver Modem Jazz awards. There's no business like Show Business we are told - but, you sure have to be fit.

LIFE AFTER SCHOOL This month's contributor is Paul Hynes from Knocklyon Close, who is studying Business Studies and Security at the College of Marketing and Design in Mountjoy Square.

Paul ' s Dad Tony is a com-munity Garda in Rathmines, and we were not surprised to learn

that Paul is keen to follow in his footsteps. Since many of the Garda recruits now have third level qualifications, Paul felt that a Diploma in Management and Security would be beneficial.

The course, which is over two years, requires a minimum of 270 points, and the subjects covered are Management, Marketing, Economics, Accounting, Communications, First Aid, Self Defence and Security Science. The latter, the electronic side of security includes the study of Alarm Systems, Alarm Detectors and C.C.T.V..Paul reckons that within the next ten years there will be a huge growth in demand for security in all areas - the home, in business and industry. He finds the course very interest ing but requiring a lot of study.

When Paul is not s tudying he enjoys all sports and music. Some months ago he formed a rock band with a few friends, and with more practice the band will be available for bookings.

From our research we have discovered that Paul has been a member of Knocklyon Youth Club for many years, and has developed skills in the various leadership areas in club activities. It is felt that his involvement in the club has had a major influence on the formation of Paul's strong character, and on the career he has chosen to follow.

We have been told by the Credit Union Committee that Paul is doing voluntary duties at the school every Friday night. . .

With Paul's attitude towards the community in general we feel he will make a fine Garda, and we wish him success with his ambition.

SCHOOL NEWS PLUS SENIOR

Hurse Slne&d Davern receives a cheque for £422 on behalf of the fourth classes for the Romanian Orphanage Appeal.

A big thank you to the children from fourth class in St. Colmcille's Senior School who made a tremendous effort in their saving campaign for the Romanian Orphanage Appeal. On Friday 22nd April a cheque for £422 was presented to Ms. Sinead Davem on behalf of the fourth classes. Sinead, a nurse, has already worked as a volunteer in Rorpania and is returning there shortly. She spoke to the fourth class children about her experiences in Romania and showed a short video. A special word of congratulations to the children from Ms. McGorry's class who prepared a project on Romania and who saved the staggering sum of £240 - a great achievement from a class of thirty.

• CAMOGIE NEWS This year's Camogie League season is now under way, and one of our teams - the Com Nuri team - got the season off to a great start with a fine win in their first league game which was against Ballinteer in Cherryfield recently. Our team's second match, played in unfavourable weather conditions in the Phoenix Park last week, was a close contest with a strong Gaelscoil Inchicore team, and although we were not victorious, our team are now looking forward to our next league game which has been fixed for early May in Cherryfield. Our other team, the Corn Bhean (Ji Phuirseail, was narrowly beaten by Loreto, Rathfarnham and St. Helen's, Portmamock but have shown great promise and will be keen to win our next match against SFX, Blanchardstown.

JUNIOR We're all suffering from cabin fever here in the Junior School. Each day the rain stops play. So we're praying fervently for a few weeks of fine Spring weather to cheer us all up.

During March, we held our Race Night in the Braemor Rooms. A great night was had by all - a pity though that more of you couldn't have come along - maybe next time?

A sincere thanks to all who supported us, and a special thanks to all the ladies of the Parents' Association. The proceeds from the Race Night can be seen in the super job done around the school -all the uneven slabs have been replaced by tarmacadam. The edges will soon be replanted and new pillars erected where necessary.

We welcome back Anne Keating to the staff, she will be taking care of Ms. Mulkerrins 2nd class - while Ms. Mulkerrin is otherwise occupied. Watch this space.

A great safety bonus came along this month in the shape of our new Lollypop Lady. She is stationed outside the church and helps the flow of parents and children from Beverley, Castlefield, Orlagh etc. Parents, please advise your children to cross at the appropriate places.

On this note, we again urge all parents NOT TO PARK on the double yellow lines - it's in the interest of your children's safety and your fellow parents' sanity!!!

The Communion buzz has started with our Communion days on 21st and 28th May. Angelic children(l) roam the corridors - halos aglow. But, we ask, will they last? We congratulate our former pupils, now in sixth class, on their recent Confirmation.

Finally, a reminder that this year's Summer Camp (open to all) will be held on the following dates: 4th - 8th July; 11 - 15th July; 15th - 19th August. Details and Application Form from Cathie in the Junior School - phone 4947422. We are very posh now - after school hours you can leave a message on our answering machine or fax us on the same number.

• LITERARY TALKS The third and fifth class pupils had talks by two top writers recently. Tom McCaughran and Tony Hickey spoke about their works and how their ideas are turned into best sellers.

The children can look forward to visits from Carolyn Swift and Margrit Cruickshank in the near future, and thanks must go to Miss Lynch for organising these literary treats.

• K.A.I.E.S. OPEN DAY - 22nd APRIL at K.Y.C.C. • Visitors were welcomed with refreshments, and an impressive display of works by the various classes was on view. The Exhibition included paintings, (the results of only eight art classes), child studies by the Photography class, restored furniture with "before and after" photos, attractive floral arrangements, and well researched projects completed by the psychology class.

The Autumn Programme, in partnership with the V.E.C., has already been planned, and includes courses in Women's Studies, Reflexology, Computer Studies, Aromatherapy and Interior Design.

The K.A.I.E.S. Committee were pleasecf with the large number of people who turned up for the Open Morning. Their enthusiasm would encourage anyone who would like to discover their hidden talents or develop new skills to enrol for the Autumn classes. Watch this space for further details.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE (PUBLIC ORDER) ACT

(Courtesy Senator Ann Ormonde M.C.C.)

R E F O R M O F P U B L I C ORDER BILL

The Public Order Act which came into force on 23rd March represents a fundamental and comprehensive reform of the criminal law in the area of public disorder and will provide the Gardai and the Courts with effective powers to protect the community from the irresponsible and anti-social behaviour of those who have no regard for the rights of others.

D I S O R D E R L Y C O N D U C T

The Act makes it an offence

• Between the hours of midnight and 7 a.m. • Or at any other time having been requested by a member of the Garda Siochana to desist. • To engage in unreasonable behaviour l ikely to cause serious offence or annoyance.

This provision is intended to deal with the situation where gangs congregate in a residential area and indulge in disorderly behaviour in a manner which causes distress for the people living in the area. A fine of up to £500 can be imposed for this offence.

T H R E A T E N I N G B E H A V I O U R The Act also contains the more serious offence of using or engaging in any threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour (with intent to provoke a breach of the peace or being reckless as to whether a breach of the peace may be occasioned.) This offence would, for example, deal with the behaviour of gangs who congregate in a particular area and set about intimidation of passers by. A fine of up to £500 and imprisonment for up to three months can be imposed for this offence.

G A R D A P O W E R S

The Gardai, as well as being given the option of charging people with these offenses, will also under the Act have the power to direct people to desist from the behaviour involved and to leave the area. Failure to comply with such a direction will be an offence with penalties of a fine of up to £500 and/or 6 months imprisonment. In addition the Gardai will have these powers where they suspect persons are loitering in a pub l ic p l a c e in c i r c u m s t a n c e s that g ive r i se to a r e a s o n a b l e apprehension for

• The safety of persons • The safety of property • The maintenance of the public peace.

SEIZING L I Q U O R

In addition the Gardai will have the power to seize intoxicating liquor (or other substances) from persons they suspect are committing these types of offence. So, for example, where a gang gathers in a public place for a cider party and indulges in disorderly behaviour the Gardai will have the power to seize the cider and order members of the gang to disperse.

O T H E R M E A S U R E S

The Act also contains a wide range of other provisions updating the criminal law on public order offenses . These include provisions dealing with entering a building (or surrounding property) as a trespasser with intent to commit an offence and increases in the penalties for common assault, and assault of a member of the Garda Siochana.

^ZJliz ccSfzixat[Varies NATURE AT WORK AND AT PLAT

Redmond Schouldice of Knocklyon Castle, a third year student in Templeogue College, was the overall winner of the 1993 RDS/ Tech-nology Ireland Young Science Writersy Com-petition. He was recently presented with the prize of £250 for his illustrated essay (The Spiral Dance - Nature at Work and at Playy

which is published in full in the April issue of Technology Ireland. A precis of its content is as follows.

THE SPIRAL FORM The spiral form that our ancestors used to decorate the Newgrange cairn 5 0 0 0 years ago is a c o m m o n thread that links cosmology, natural sciences and some aspects of technology. The Earl of Rosse 150 years ago was t he first t o see t h a t s o m e of t he galactic nebulae were spirals; he used the 'Levia-than ' telescope at Birr, Co . Offaly, then the largest in the world.

T h e main p rope r ty of the equiangular or loga-r i thmic spiral is self-similarity, i.e. the f igure may grow continuously wi thout ever changing its shape. It is therefore found in many aspects of accclcrating organic growth such as snail shells, the cochlea in the h u m a n inner ear, a spiders web and most claws, nails, beaks and teeth . Man has adapted the prin-ciples of the spiral and vortex to gear teeth in auto-mobiles, decorations in classical architecture, design of clover-leaf junct ions for motorways, and w i n g s / fuselages of aircraft, among many others.

The spiral form is also of fundamenta l impor t -ance in fractal geomet ry that describes the dynamic shapes associa ted wi th chaos t h e o r y . T h e s e can occur in the oscillating reactions known as 'chem-ical c locks ' and at t h e o n s e t of f ib r i l l a t ion as a p r e lude t o cardiac arrest . T h e s e pa t t e rn s can be compute r - s imula ted and could be of great signi-ficance in giving timely warn ing of hear t attacks. The spiral was originally known as ' the curve of life' and this could become literally true.

The equilateral spiral in nature (from left to right) - the edible snail (Helix pomatia); the cochlea in the

human ear; and Nautilus Pompilius.

A drawing of Redmond in front of his home, Knocklyon Castle. We send him many congratulations on yet another literary success.

KNOCKLYON GUILD OF I.C.A.

Josephine Wallace (seated) President I.C.A. Knocklyon Guild, can't gef away from work, even at their 10th Anniversary Dinner when the

cheques need to be signed for Treasurer Alice McGlynn.

On Tuesday, 12th April last the Knocklyon Guild of ICA celebrated their 10th Anniversary in style in the Community Centre. In attendance were all the Past Presidents and the first committee, also the Dublin Federation President, Mrs. Pat Walters, and other members of the Executive.

A lovely meal was supplied by Bolger Catering and the entertainment was supplied by our local trio of ladies - On the Move.

We must say thank you to all who helped make our night so memorable - especially to Superquinn for the birthday cake and Knocklyon Flowers for the flowers and thank you also to Finches, Premier Dairies and Grants Ireland Ltd. for the drink!

On the night we presented all the Past Presidents with a medallion to thank them for their tireless work over the last ten years, for, without them, t h e r e would doub t l e s s be no I .C.A. T h e y a r e Kathleen Ni Murchu, Marian McCormac, Muireann Murtagh, Angela Ryan, Bridie Maher, Ann Fox and Ann O'Connell. A big thank you must also go to our present President, Josephine Wallace, for the great job she did in organising the night.

Remember ladies we meet every 1st and 3rd Tuesday in the Community Centre at 8 . 3 0 p.m. S H A R P . W h o k n o w s , you m a y be ou r nex t President! Here's to the next ten years.

You may have noticed, around this time of year there is always word about some amateur weather forecaster predicting a good summer. He is usually some man down in, say Wexford, or maybe perhaps across in Somerset and the word is that these people, who surface briefly, daffodil like each year, always get it right. I am sceptical about such predictions which run something like this: May will be wet and windy, which is what May is meant to be anyway, June unsettled early, later gradually becoming fine, July warm and sunny, a brief break in the weather late July, returning to the good weather in August, stretching into Septem-ber, culminating in an Indian Summer.

You and I of course know better, that the above in reality happens once every twenty years if we are lucky. Still and all, I like these few hardy annual forecasters. I never met (not as in meteorological!) any of these people, but there is hope and a warm glow about them, and in our troubled times, more often perhaps in our troubled minds, the sniff of good news about weather, or of any good news, is sure welcome.

Irish weather has obviously always been with us and sure where would we be without it, what would we have to talk about? (isn't the weather shocking, very cold for the time of year etc., etc.)

Spare a thought for our regular forecasters who manfully or womanfully, day after day have to try to put a smile and a bright face on frequently impossible weather.

But Ireland, in spite of violence, unemployment, troubled times in our faith, rebellious teenagers, ludi-crous pot holes, hellbent on being as contrary as poss-ible, still has priceless assets. As is said in another well known context: Si monumentum requiris circumspice -If you seek his monument look round. In an increas-ingly hostile climate our precious faith and its ramparts e.g. sound family life bravely and thankfully persist. We have the rivers, the lakes, the hills, the gentle countryside - and the sea. For me there must be the sea, preferably the Atlantic, to uplift the mind and heart above the drabness of everyday living to freedom - and beyond to ultimate freedom and fulfilment which lies in God.

K N O C K L Y O N UNITED F O O T B A L L

C L U B We're Back! Thank heavens the weather has improved to the extent that all fixtures now have a chance of being fulfilled. With all the disruptions this season our man-agers and players have been working extremely hard to overcome the difficulties in fulfilling fixtures and securing time and facilities for training. Despite these adversities all our teams are in contention for honours.

Most notable achievements to date have been the progress of our U.13's A, under the guidance of Noel Gaughran and Johny Connolly, who made it to the last sixteen of the All Ireland Cup - falling 4-3 to Ferrybank F.C., Waterford, after extra time, in the game which had just about everything.

With the exception of the result, it was a most enjoy-able trip. All credit and thanks to Ferrybank for the hospitality afforded us. I should also thank the parents who took the time to make the trip and add much appreciated support to the team.

Well done also to our U.12's A under Thomas Master-son and our U.14's A under Sean Drudy, both of whom made it to the fourth round of All Ireland Cup Competition, which I can assure you were no mean achievements.

While in the mood for handing out bouquets, let me acknowledge the great job done by Danny Nolan in fitting out our new dressing rooms. Many thanks and well done Danny. I should not forget, either, the efforts of Bill Leckey and his helpers in completing the job by way of painting said dressing rooms. As you can appreciate the provision of these facilities does not come cheaply, hence we will be advising you of some fund-raising events to be organised in the near future.

Meanwhile, in preparation for next season, I would like to point out that our annual trials for new players will take place on Friday May 6th and Saturday May 7th. Details will be circulated over the next couple of weeks through our usual channels.

Please note we are also looking for managers for the coming season. If you are in anyway interested, or would like more details of what is entailed in managing a team, please contact me or any other committee member or team manager. Don't worry about your qualifications for the job, we will provide for your coaching needs. All we seek are enthusiastic people willing to be coached and prepared to give of their time for the children of our community. Once again, if you feel capable and are at all interested please contact us.

Yours in Sport Paul Keenan, Chairman (Phone: 4947283)

BALLYBODEN ST. ENDA'S Despite the sodden state of the pitches our under 11 and under 12 hurling teams have had a very successful start to the Leagues. The under 10A and under 9 footballers have won their leagues and the under 11A foo tba l le rs were runners up in their league.

This year our club is celebrating its Silver Jubilee with a full programme of events. A number of our members have recent ly made a name for t hemse lves as ac tors in the club's first home-produced drama.

John Kirwan, Club Chairman, wri t ing the most recent c lub newslet ter , The Boden News, re leased some very interesting statistics. The Club began in 1969 with one adult team and in the current year we will field 56 teams who will play almost 600 games. The cost of running those teams is in excess of £30,000. All this is achieved by voluntary com-mitment, long may it cont inue. _ _ ,

SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL NEWS

- Courtesy Mary Muldoon M.C.C. -• Y E L L O W BOX J U N C T I O N S The Garda Commissioner has made recommendations to the Roads and Traffic Committee for the provision of a yellow box junction at the entrance to Knocklyon Road from Mount Alton and Firhouse Road north side at its junction with Knocklyon Road. With regard to box junctions at the exits from private car parks (e.g. churches, shopping centres, schools etc.) the Council do not provide for these road markings. However, if they are requested and funded by the owners of the private car parks due consideration would be given by the Council where traffic conditions warrant the provision of box junctions.

• W E L C O M E TO L O L L I P O P NO. 3 An appointment has been made providing a Traffic Warden for school children on Idrone Avenue at the crossing between the church and house named "Laois Ciuin". This is a very welcome improvement for the school children in this area.

• ENTRANCE TO DEPT. OF EDUCATION SITE Problems have arisen in the past with regard to providing an entrance to the temporary pitches on the Dept. of Education site on Scholarstown road. However, a provision of £7,500 has been made for the proposed en-trance in the draft parks works programme for this year.

• ROAD D E V E L O P M E N T S Councillor Muldoon would like it to be noted to any new residents who need to be briefed on any road developments in the Knocklyon area, that she is available for information at her home number 4946601.

• RE: C .P .O . AT R I D I N G SCHOOL CORNER, KNOCKLYON ROAD The Dublin County Council Compulsory Purchase (Knocklyon Road) Order, 1993 was submitted to the Minister for the Environment for confirmation in July 1993. An objection was received against the confirmation of this Compulsory Purchase Order and the Minister was therefore obliged to hold a Public Local Inquiry. The Inquiry was held on 7th October, 1993 and the Minister's decision is awaited. There is no timescale within which the Minister has to make a decision.

In response to representations received, an adjoining plot of land in Council ownership has been cleaned up and a random rubble wall running, along the perimeter of this plot which was in a derelict condition has been repaired to prevent loose material falling onto the roadway and possible encroachment or parking on the land.

- Courtesy John Hannon M.C.C. -• J U N C T I O N BETWEEN REALIGNED KNOCKLYON ROAD A N D

F IRHOUSE ROAD

The junction between the realigned Knocklyon Road and Firhouse Road is being examined as part of an overall traffic management plan for the area. This plan will be implemented in conjunction with the construction of Knocklyon and Ballycullen Roads a£ a short term measure pending the construction of the Southern Cross Route Motorway.

• FOOTPATHS F R O M GLENVARA According to information provided by E). Drumm, Administrative Officer, Roads and Traffic Department, South Dublin Council, to the Minister of State Tom Kitt, T.D., continuous footpaths from Glenvara Park to Knock-lyon Shopping Centre are to be provided in conjunction with the realign-ment of Ballycullen Road.

The cast of the "Railway Children" from The Coffey School of Drama

T h e Coffey School of D r a m a p r e s e n t e d E d i t h Nesbit ' s The Railway Children in Sanc ta Mar ia College from 7 - 9th April. This was a most enter-t a i n i n g piece of d r a m a which h e l d a u d i e n c e s ' attention until the final curtain. The set, lighting, costumes, sound and special effects were all of a very high s t a n d a r d which i m m e d i a t e l y set the mood and time for this well loved classic. From the cast of over twenty, ranging in age from 7 to 18 y e a r s , t h e a c t i n g w a s f l a w l e s s a n d e x t r e m e l y credible, and without exception they all looked as if they were enjoying themselves as much as we, the audience, were. A really lovely production by Eva & Kathryn Coffey - many congratula t ions to all concerned and we look forward to many more.

For all young budding thespians there will be an opportunity to partake in an informal and enjoy-able Summer Camp to include Music, Drama and Art. The course runs from 4th - 8th July, and 8th -12th August.
