...program, the first part of the Mass, which consists largely of scriptural readings, would be read by the priest in the language of-and facing -his congregation. To emphasize congregational participation in the sacrifice, laymen would carry to the altar the wine and the hosts to be consecrated. The Canon, the most ancient prayer of the Mass, would remain in Latin; but rather than being recited silently, it would be said aloud, as is the custom in the ancient Eastern liturgies. On certain solemn occasions, such as Nuptial Masses, laymen would be able to receive Communion in the form...
...issue is the American Bar Association's recommended Canon 35 for the ethical conduct of trials, which flatly prohibits cameras of any kind. The rule has been adopted for all federal courts and the courts of every state except Texas and Colorado. Canon 35 was written in 1937 after the sensationalism of press coverage when Bruno Hauptmann was tried for kidnaping young Charles Lindbergh Jr. It is ironic that the canon has come up for debate again in one of the few cases since that has stirred nationwide emotion...

Baldwin is the insider looking out. Many people, and this includes all who read for enjoyment, will prefer Goyen-the outsider looking in. When he looks in at the theological thimbleriggers of the clapboard cathedrals...
...supposed that a Gothic chapter house full of Renaissance prelates was less full of worldly guile than Goyen's illiterate, self-certified Savonarolas in their rented temples. It is just that they are more obvious; no canon law inhibits their behavior and no lapidary creed slows down their freewheeling extempore theology...
