r'ij "if ej yyy- ef 8 THE COURIER-JOURNAL, WEDNESDAY, MAY 18, 1983 Lutherans, Episcopalians hold joint communion Residents try to eliminate illegal dumps Continued from Page 1 said Clark Bledsoe, a health engineer at the Louisville and Jefferson County Board pf Health. "A fly may be walking around on garbage one day and on your food the next," he said. Besides providing regular garbage collection twice a week, the city also sponsors a neighborhood junk- and trash-removal program. Burnable trash may be dropped at the city incinerator on Meriwether Avenue between 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.

Monday through Saturday, The city also operates the Edith Avenue landfill, where Louisville residents may dump some non-burnable items, such as dirt and glass, for free. The landfill is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. One reason people dump illegally, Ms.

Waldrop said, is that they may not want, or be able, to pay to dump legally at a private landfill. Dumping on private property Is a misdemeanor punishable by SO days in jail, a $100 fine or both. A fine of $100 a day also may be assessed until the garbage is removed. Police at the 5th District, which includes the Highland Park area, say they receive few complaints about the dumping. Some Highland Park residents patrol the illegal dumps themselves.

Estill Wheeler put up a "No Dumping" sign at one site a couple of months ago that seems to be helping. Still, for Wheeler and his neighbors, the illegal dumping is a continuing frustration. "I go to the sites and watch. I take down license plate numbers of people who dump. Once I caught a guy, but I probably was too easy on him.

I just told him if I catch him again, I personally will take out a warrant for his arrest." "It's not the first in the country he said; the largest previous such joint service was at the National Cathedral in Washington in January. But he said it was the first in his diocese "a historic moment." Celebrating the service along with Reed were the Rt Rev. Edward W. Jones, Episcopal bishop of Indianapolis; the Rev. Ralph A.

Kempski, bishop of the Indiana-Kentucky Synod of the Lutheran Church in America; the Rev. Bemell Boehm, bishop of the American Lutheran Church; and the Rev. Harold L. Hecht bishop of the American Evangelical Lutheran Church. "There is no way this could be considered an ordinary occasion," said the preacher.

Dr. William Rusch, director of ecumenical relations of the Lutheran Church in America. "We are not the ordinary congregation. We have gathered from across denominational and geographical lines" and broken "our normal habits" because "men and women throughout the centuries have cared yearned for the unity of Christ's church." "After centuries of defensiveness and polemics, churches are together in a movement of common openness," Rusch said. Although "serious problems remain" and the journey to unity is long, "I feel a fresh wind, blowing the people of God on a new course.

I fully believe that in future church history books our century will be known as the beginning of that great effort to bring Christians and their churches together again to a visible expression of their unity. "Now, after centuries of divisions and schisms, Christians in our day have begun to work together, locally, nationally and even internationally, in caring for the needs of the world." And theological dialogues between churches such as the ones between Episcopalians and Lutherans that made yesterday's service possible "have been able to break down divisions between many Christian families." After the two families had broken bread together before the cathedral's altar, they sang an old communion hymn with new feeling: One body we, one Body who partake. One Church united in communion blest; One name we bear, one Bread of life we break. With all thy saints on earth and saints at rest. lin; 13 grandchildren; and 26 greatgrandchildren.

Steven W. Seay 28, of the 10300 block Caven Ave. Court leeKeesee Ireas 2301 Meado Drive Lou KY4G718 with 1 By JOHN LONG Cvrlr-Juna Start writer Another bit of history was written yesterday at Louisville's historic Christ Church Cathedral as Lutherans and Episcopalians celebrated Holy Communion together. Such joint services were authorized last September by the Episcopal Church and three Lutheran denominations the Lutheran Church in America, the American Lutheran Church and the American Evangelical Lutheran Church. Yesterday's service, the first in the Louisville area, was held in conjunction with the 20th Annual National Workshop on Christian Unity, which began Monday and ends tomorrow at the Hyatt Regency.

In welcoming the Lutherans to the seat of his diocese, the Rt Rev. David B. Reed, Episcopal bishop of Kentucky, told the 200 worshippers that he believed it was "the first time in the 160-year history of this cathedral" that non-Episcopalians would receive communion without a special invitation from the pulpit such as might be extended to individual visitors. Then Reed extended such a special invitation to non-Lutherans. "You, too, if you are baptized and repentant are invited," Reed said.

Police honor officers killed in line of duty By WILMA NORTON Courier-Journal Staff Writer Gwen Downs was shot and killed May 16, 1977. She was the first Louisville policewoman to die in the line of duty. Yesterday, a display with her picture and the pictures of 19 other officers who were killed was dedicated at Louisville police headquarters as part of a Police Officers Memorial Day program. The night Ms. Downs was killed, she and her partner answered a call to "Meet the man at Seventh and Broadway, White Castle lot." The man turned out to be her estranged husband also a police officer who shot his wife and then shot himself.

Jonah Darrell Cox's picture is beside Ms. Downs' on the display. He was 18 when he entered police training. Even though he was off duty, Cox tried to break up a fight outside a bar on Feb. 23, 1974.

One of the men shot and killed Cox. He was 21. Farther down the row is the photo of Tommy Ray. He was attempting to stop an armed robbery at a grocery when he was shot and killed on March 20, 1973. The robber got $58.

The display contains pictures of officers who have died since 1949. Sgt. Carl Yates, media relations officer, said the department hopes to eventually have pictures of all officers killed in the line of duty in a memorial. But because some date to the 1800s, they have been difficult to find. The ceremonies in Louisville are part of a national week honoring officers killed in the line of duty.

More than 900 officers participated in a memorial service in Washington on Sunday, Yates said. A similar service will be held in Frankfort tomorrow. After the brief dedication ceremony, several officers lingered in front of the display, remembering their dead friends. "I remember when Gwen worked here as a civilian," one said. "She wanted to be a police officer so bad." Walker Sr, 80, died Tuesday.
