Into London's Anglican Church of St. Vedast last week filed a rare body of worshipers-150 executives and employees of Courtaulds Ltd., Britain's biggest textile manufacturer, to offer corporate thanks for their "deliverance from anxiety."

...Presley at his prime had challenged Cardinal Spellman to a theology debate on NBC. For in England, mop-haired Adam Faith, 21, is the current king of rock, and last week he argued religion for half an hour on BBC-TV with the Most Rev.
