In Warsaw, Ind., a gaggle of citizens in 1977 publicly burned 40 copies of Values Clarifications, a textbook, as a show of support for a school board that decided to ban both written matter and independent-minded teachers from its system. Said William I. Chapel, a member of that board: "The bottom line is: Who will control the minds of the students...

Miller of the House of the Lord Pentecostal Church in Brooklyn, who spoke at Harvard Epworth Chapel at the society's first forum, warns the Black Christian intellectual not to get caught up in personal betterment alone.

In an incredible episode on Aug. 29, a weeping band of former parishioners interrupted him at prayer in a little chapel near Chania, kissed him, then literally hauled the protesting prelate into a car for the trip to Kisamos. Alerted by church bells, thousands swarmed to welcome him back. The Ecumenical Patriarchate supposed at first that Eirinaios himself had staged the kidnaping. Not so, insisted the captive bishop.
