Action: Adopted as amended (1).

(Prior to submission for action the following documents
had been added by the committee: Ov. 4-67; Report 5-02, II, O;
Ov. 5-48—51; Ov. 5-68; Res. 5-11; Res. 5-13. A motion to remove
Overtures 1-53, 4-67, and 6-61 failed to carry. The delegates did
agree to eliminate Overtures 5-48 to 5-51, as well as proposed
Res. 5-11 and 5-13. They declined to remove Overtures 2-33 and
1-14A—B. Although Res. 5-11 was added to this list, it should be
noted that subsequently the floor committee did present a
resolution to establish a Standing Committee on Pastoral
Education.)

spoken to certain proposals addressed to this conven-
tion; and

WHEREAS, There seems to be no compelling reason to
amplify or to revise that previous convention action;

tioners be referred to previous convention action as
