Description

Will Rogers Memorial Coliseum looked like this Thursday night as a capacity crowd turned out to hear Bishop Otto Dibelius of West Berlin. There are 6467 permanent seats in the Coliseum, and nearly 3000 folding chairs were placed on the floor. Few were unoccupied as the Bishop discussed the touchy situation in Berlin. This was the 8th annual Festival of Faith sponsored by 94 churches, representing 17 different denominations, all members of the Fort Worth Area Council of Churches.
