George R. V. Bol ster, rector of St. Mark's Epis copal church in Medford, was elected dean of the southern con vocation of the church's diocese of Oregon, at the closing sessions of the 64th annual convention of the diocese held in Portland this week. He succeeds the Rev. A. H. MacDpnnell, Ashland, in the post, which is largely an admin istrative one, and is for the area south of Roseburg. , Mr. Bolster also was named an alternate delegate to the pro vincial synod, which will be held in Boise, Ida., May 6 to 8. The convention voted to rec ommend the formation of a ninth province for the church, to in clude the dioceses of Oregon, Montana and Olympia, and the missionary districts of Eastern Oregon, Spokane, Idaho and Alaska. Oregon now is in the eighth province, which includes much of the western part of the United States. In other action, the convention established a minimum stipend for missionary priests of $2,500 for single men and $3,000 for married men, and also voted to oppose a proposal that retired bishops would no longer have a vote in the church's house of bishops. This, and the recom mendation on a new province will be presented to the triennial convention of the Episcopal church, to meet In Boston next September.
