...accusation was the most serious. Shortly after Pike resigned as Bishop of California to become a resident member of Robert Hutchins' Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions at Santa Barbara, South Florida's Anglo-Catholic Bishop Henry Louttit, backed by more than 30 other prelates, drew up a petition calling for a church court to try Pike for heresy. The move was forestalled only when the House of Bishops agreed to approve a statement of principles that denounced Pike's theologizing as "offensive" and "irresponsible"-terms as harsh as any church court might have used...

Geography seems to have little influence over which market investors use. The A.S.E. drew 32% of its volume from New York State as against 29% for the N.Y.S.E. The No. 2 source of business, California, accounted for 9.5% at the A.S.E., 9.4% on the Big Board...
