Title: Aided petition drive.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: C-31841 AIDED PETITION DRIVE VATICAN CITY -- Bishop Francis F. Reh, rector of the North American College in Rome, played a leading role in the dramatic final moments of the Second Vatican Council’s third session. Bishop Reh assisted Cardinas Leger, Ritter and Meyer in securing more than 1,000 signatures on a petition calling for a vote on religious liberty. Onetime rector of St. Joseph’s Seminary at Yonkers, N.Y., Bishop Reh headed the Charleston, S.C., See until appointment to the post in Rome. Pope Paul VI ruled that he would not override the decision of the 12-man Council presidency which deferred voting on religious liberty until the fourth session.

Title: First woman ambassador to the Vatican.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: C-46614 FIRST WOMAN AMBASSADOR TO THE VATICAN VATICAN CITY -- In a precedent-shattering move, Pope Paul has accepted the nomination of a woman as an ambassador to the Vatican. The pontiff agreed to receive the credentials of Bernadette Olowo, 27, named by President Idi Amin as Uganda’s envoy to the Holy See. The Pope’s decision breaks what is believed to be a 900-year-old unwritten tradition barring women from becoming official representatives at the Vatican. Miss Olowo, a secretary in Uganda’s embassy in Bonn, will also serve as Ambassador to West Germany, where she will reside. Roman Catholics in Uganda number about 3.5 million out of a total population of 10,764,000. Church-state relations have been erratic under the regime of Muslim President Amin, who has shown both benevolence and hostility toward the Church.
