Last week, when Pope Paul named 27 new cardinals, thereby raising membership in the college to an alltime high of 120, he fulfilled this prospectus to the letter. Archbishops Pierre Veuillot of Paris and Corrado Ursi of Naples-cities that over the centuries became accustomed to having cardinals-were elevated to the purple, along with 14 Vatican diplomats and curial officials. Archbishop Justinus Darmajuwana, 52, of Semarang, becomes the first Indonesian to sit in the college; German-born Archbishop Jose Clemente Maurer, 67, of Sucre will be the first Bolivian. Berlin's Archbishop Alfred Bengsch, who by choice lives...

It turned out to have been executed by Congregationalist Frederick Gibberd, 59, the architect and city planner responsible for London's Heathrow Airport and the new town of Harlow...
Appointed by Constantine to succeed 86-year-old Archbishop Chrysostomos, who was retired by the new military government (TIME, May 19), leronymos promises to bring a breath of needed fresh air to Greece's dormant, dominant church. A native of the marble-quarrying island of Tinos, leronymos was ordained a deacon in 1932, earned scholarships to theological schools in England and Germany. He is an expert in canon law, with 90 published works to his credit, has a doctorate in divinity from the University of Athens. After World War II, he came to Queen Frederika's attention...
leronymos also called for an end to the hierarchy's Byzantine bickering over power and prestige. Announcing that he would soon fill 15 sees long left vacant because of bishops' jealousies, the archbishop warned that "any clergyman who attempts to canvass his election, directly or through middlemen, will be disqualified...
