- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: PO-29714 SERBIAN ROYALISTS OPPOSE NEW ORTHODOX BISHOP MILWAUKEE, Wis. -- Consecration ceremonies for Archimandrite Firmilijan of Pittsburgh, Pa., recently named as Midwest bishop in the Serbian Eastern Orthodox Diocese in the U.S. and Canada, were protested in Milwaukee, Wis., as about 100 Serbian Royalist pickets demonstrated outside St. Sava Cathedral. Signs they carried charged the new bishop with being a “pawn of the Yugoslavian Communists.” At one point during the picketing, minor scuffling broke out and police intervened to prevent more serious altercations. The incident was part of a continuing controversy over the division of the Diocese into three sections and the suspension of Bishop Dionisije, who has headed the entire Diocese, by the Church’s Council of Bishops in Belgrade. Bishop Dionisije refused to recognize the suspension; he said charges against him alleging canonical offense were lodged by a “handful of Communists among the American Serbs” and that the Council was under pressure from “Tito’s Communist regime in Yugoslavia.” Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (RCW-Milw-8B-63-NBM)

Sheen of New York and discussion with the press on the crisis in his country. The 66-year-old archbishop firmly denied the Roman Catholic Church is involved in alleged persecution of Buddhists, maintaining that Communists and other agitators are using the situation to their advantage. He disclaimed reports that his visit had political implications or that he was seeking U.S. Catholic hierarchy intervention with U.S. governmental authorities to ease relations with the Diem regime. His talk with Bishop Sheen, he said, was confined to missionary matters. The South Vietnamese archbishop was unable to meet with Francis Cardinal Spellman, Archbishop of New York, who was out of the city. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (PA-NY-9B-63-NBM)

Murphy, eighth-grade teacher in the Russell School at Cambridge, Mass., reads from the Scriptures as students listen. The status of Bible reading was much confused at Cambridge. The School Committee voted 5-2 to substitute a moment of silent meditation, but a parliamentary maneuver caused the decision to be held up for a week. During the week Bible reading was permissible, the board ruled; however, the superintendent of schools left the practice to the discretion of teachers. Mr. Murphy was the only teacher at Russell School to authorize Bible readings in his class. Atty. Gen. Edward W. Brooke of Massachusetts has held that public schools in the state must obey the Supreme Court decision barring devotional exercises. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (EM-BOS-9B-63-W)

- Text transcribed from caption: PC-29696 SEEK AGREEMENT ON SCHOOL PRAYER BILL WASHINGTON, D.C. -- An Ad Hoc Committee of the House of Representatives is shown as it met to study a “compromise” draft of a bill that would overrule the U.S. Supreme Court decision on prayer and Bible reading as devotional acts in public schools. Fifty-six members of the House have presented bills for that purpose, but agreement on a common bill is required. The committee headed by Rep. Frank J. Becker (R.-N.Y.), shown at center, seeks to devise a “compromise language” draft agreeable to all sponsors of so-called “prayer” amendments. If successful, the committee will launch a drive to obtain signatures of 218 Congressmen on a discharge petition. The petition is needed to get such a bill out of the House Judiciary Committee and onto the floor of the House for debate and vote. Shown with Mr. Becker, left to right, are Congressmen Walter S. Baring (D.-Nev.), Don Fuqua (D.-Fla.), Delbert L. Latta (R.-Ohio) and Horace R. Kornegay (D.-N.C.). Rep. William C. Cramer (R.-Fla.), not pictured, is also a member of the committee.

- "Luther" comes to Broadway.
- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: P-29932 ‘LUTHER’ COMES TO BROADWAY NEW YORK -- A dramatization of the life and personal trials of the Protestant Reformer, Martin Luther, opened on Broadway and appeared destined to have a long run. Critics generally hailed the play, by England’s John Osborne, as a thoughtful and provocative study of the man whose rebellion against the established Church touched off irrevocable change in the religious world. Starring in the production (bottom photo) is Albert Finney in the role of Luther, who also played the part in the long-running London production. With the Reformer (above) is John Moffat as Cajetan, Cardinal of San Sisto, who attempts to persuade Luther to retract his criticisms of the Church.

Stained glass between the roof’s panels suffuse the room with multi-colored light. Behind the altar is a curved 14-foot wall covered with pastel shades of glass tessera. The top of the altar table is a 15-foot marble slab. The pulpit is circular, cut from solid blocks of marble.
