Byzantine Bishop Quits Pittsburgh Diocese

The Byzantine Catholic bishop of Pittsburgh, Most Rev. Nicholas T. Elko, resigns after a year in Rome amid priestly opposition over liberalizing traditional rites. The Vatican provided no reason, with Archbishop Elko previously recalled amid charges from 35 priests. A three member Vatican commission studied the complaints. 13,000 signatures backed parishioners seeking his return.

Queen Elizabeth Urges Chichester Spirit for Britain 1968

In her Christmas message broadcast from Buckingham Palace, Queen Elizabeth II called on Britons and the Commonwealth to emulate Sir Francis Chichester's solo voyage. She warned of formidable problems but urged determined, well directed effort by a people with long-proven character and initiative. The speech noted Canada’s centenary and urged moderation in the French Canadian separatist issue, stressing that Canada's future depends on the current generation’s will to work together. The TV version was color, and the monarch wore a yellow silk dress and a wattle spray brooch symbolizing Australia.
