...story that said Prince Charles of England, 25, was swept off his feet by Caroline. The pair got together presumably last year when she attended a convent school near Windsor Castle. The problems were even more alluring. As head of the Church of England, Charles can only marry an Anglican. Would he renounce his throne for Roman Catholic Caroline? Or would she be converted?

...publication of the accord was approved by both Pope Paul VI and the Archbishop of Canterbury. But the commission's Anglican and Roman Catholic chairmen were careful to point out that the document was only "an agreed statement of the commission and nothing more." Any action to increase ecumenical exchange between Anglicans and Catholics will have to come from the hierarchies of the two communions. Moreover, there is still a major stumbling block: the Roman Catholic doctrine of the infallibility and primacy of the Pope...
