Last month the trustees thought they had found their man: Rev. John Crocker, 38, studious, absentminded, enthusiastic high Churchman, Episcopal Chaplain of Princeton University, a graduate of Groton.

S. bigots (with "ex-monks," "escaped nuns," etc.)-would benefit not only Stalin but the discredited Russian Godless. So last week Metropolitan Nikolas' renunciation of "religious lies" appeared in the atheist journal, Bezbozhnik. He declared that he had begun to feel that his church duties were burdensome, and finally discontinued them entirely. "For me," wrote the Metropolitan, "the face of the priesthood has been unmasked." Thereupon Nikolas proceeded to particularize, naming prelates by name and accusing them...
