Thus intoned California's Bishop Edward Lambe Parsons, while he and 13 other Episcopal bishops, with light touches of their hands on a bowed head, made a bishop of Dr. Karl Morgan Block, 52, elected last spring to be bishop coadjutor of California. Bishop Parsons, a great but aging liberal of the Episcopal Church, had announced his intention to retire at 70 this winter, after an episcopate of 20 years, will be succeeded by Bishop Block. Chubby-chinned, Washington-born Dr. Block, who admits to being "outrageously vigorous," was for 13 years rector of St. Michael & St. George...
When the late Dr. Samuel Smith Drury was Rector of St. Paul's School (Concord, N. H.), he was offered two other jobs: the Episcopal coadjutor-bishopric of Pennsylvania, the rectorship of Manhattan's Trinity Church ("one of the most enviable jobs in or beyond the Episcopal Church" which has often proved a stepping-stone to the top-ranking bishopric of New York). St. Paul's is the oldest and biggest of the haughty Episcopal preparatory schools, and its headmastership always ranked high, but Dr. Drury's nolo episcopari enormously increased the prestige...

The only hope for overcoming the turmoil which at the present time is being manifested...
...chief Cathedral groaned on their hinges, swung open as they do only when an Archbishop is installed or dies. In walked a lean, dark man with horn-rimmed spectacles, Archbishop-elect Luis Maria Martínez y Rodríguez, raised by Pope Pius XI from bishop coadjutor of the provincial diocese of Morelia to be Catholic primate of Mexico (TIME, April 5). Within the Cathedral were hundreds of clergy, wearing habits and vestments rarely permitted them in public during recent years, and thousands of poor, pious Mexicans, mostly Indians and mestizos...
...Henry Wise Hobson, 45, of southern Ohio. A handsome, strapping man (6 ft. 4 in., 200 lb.), he was crew manager and Skull & Bones man at Yale (Class of 1914), won a Distinguished Service Cross for "extraordinary heroism" as a major in the World War, was chosen Bishop Coadjutor of southern Ohio in 1930 after holding an assistant rectorship in Waterbury, Conn., a rectorship in Worcester, Mass. In Cincinnati, his episcopal residence, Bishop Hobson joins in civic movements, collects paintings, holds services in small, old St. Paul's Cathedral, which the growth of the city has left stranded, faced...
