Pusey Talks To Russian Clergy

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

President Pusey described Harvard as a "Protestant Christian school" in a speech to four Russian clergymen visiting the Center for World Religions yesterday.

He stressed the part played by churches in the founding of the University, and said that the first president had been forced to resign because he did not believe in infant baptism.

He got little response from the churchmen until he mentioned Paul Tillich, whose name elicited a smile and a comment from one listener, a Russian Orthodox archbishop and professor at the Leningrad Theological Academy.

The ministers are in the United States for three weeks on an exchange program.
