Brother John
is Father Fake

England (CP) — For
eight days Brother John
lived like a king in this
South Yorkshire  in-
dustrial town. Posing as a
Benedictine monk, he
was an honored guest in
the home of a Roman
Catholic family. He
stayed in bed until 11
every morning, ate the
best kind of food. and
watched television every

night.

Brother John repaid
this hospitality by
disappearing suddenly
with goods worth &140
($280) belonging to Mr.
and Mrs. Harold Evans
and their son, Nigel. They
learned from police that
Brother John, nicknamed
Father Fake, was one of
the most wanted men in
Britain.

“He has duped Catholic
families up and down the
country by using the
Mames of various
priests,’ a Yorkshire
police inspector said.

“He told me he was a
friend of my husband and
my son and asked if he
could stay a few days,”
Mrs. Evans said. ‘‘I

confirmed they had met

knew him as Brother
John.

‘*] invited him to stay,
and for eight days we put
ourselves out for him and
catered to all his whims.
Although I was uneasy in
his presence, never
dreamt he was such an
impostor. It’s a horrible
feeling to know we've had
someone like that under

our roof, and we want to _

warn Roman Catholics
everywhere to be on their

Mrs, Evans said the
impostor talked in a soft

The health department

which was devised by Dr.
Gerald Milner, director
of the department’s Alco-

All participants are
volunteers and are given
psycho-social assessment
to determine the cause
and extent of their
drinking problem. Only
those on whom the course

is most likely to have a

chosen, and groups of up

Drivers’ readings are

recorded, their scores for |

achieved ‘before they
began to drink, and their
performances during the
tests are videotaped.

Sunday, members of
their families are en-
couraged to visit the

the driving skill tests and
the videotape of their
performances..

“Having a member of
the volunteer’s family
present on Sunday
morning is not meant to
humiliate or distress the
volunteer,” Dr. Milner
said. “That family
member is usually only
too well aware of the
volunteer’s drinking
problem and anxious to

help resolve it.

* “Then we sit down with
the volunteer and his
family member and get
down to basics about how
they can cut down their
drinking. This gives the
volunteer the support of
his family in trying to
resolve his drinking
problem.”

. Volunteers return three
