...Francisco police department's turn to be surprised. At 3 a.m. cops answered a call to turn off a noisy hippie party at a pad in Haight-Ashbury, chased the gang up to the rooftops, and beheld Rudi lying prone among the hippies on one roof, Dame Margot tucked away on an adjoining rooftop.

For most of the participants, it was like a college reunion. Many had spent the previous week at an interfaith Colloquium on evangelism at Notre Dame. Others were veterans of the series of theological dialogues carried on by the Roman Catholic hierarchy with various U.S. Protestant churches.
