Title: Dissidents in Russian Orthodox Church.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: #S-4679 DISSIDENTS IN RUSSIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH PARIS -- Posed outside the Church of St. Sergius here where they convened for a four-day diocesan council are clergy of the Russian Orthodox Church who rebelled against the appointment by the Moscow Patriarch of Metropolitan Seraphim as Exarch of the western European dioceses. They have officially elected Archbishop Vladimir (seated, center, holding crozier) in his stead. The council maintained that the western dioceses belong to the jurisdiction of the Ecumenical Patriarchate at Istanbul and not to the Moscow Patriarchate. It further claimed that Archbishop Vladimir was named specifically in the will of the late Metropolitan Eulogius, of Paris, to succeed him as Exarch.

Title: Chile bishop under pressure to resign.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-46103 CHILE BISHOP UNDER PRESSURE TO RESIGN SANTIAGO, Chile -- Pressure for the resignation and departure of Bishop Helmut Frenz of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Chile has mounted in recent weeks within his own church. Opponents of the 41-year-old native German churchman have purchased space in newspapers to publish requests for his resignation and departure. The bishop -- in Chile for nine years and head of the 24,000-member, mainly German-background denomination since 1970 -- has been in conflict with conservative factions in the church for an extended period. Criticism has sharpened in the last year mainly because of his work on behalf of political refugees in Chile following the September 1973 military coup which toppled the Allende regime. In another development, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, Sadruddin Aga Khan, announced that Bishop Frenz has been named to receive the 1974 Nansen Medal for outstanding service to refugees. Bishop Frenz took the lead in organizing a National Refugee Committee together with Roman Catholic, Protestant and other groups shortly after the September 1973 coup.
