Bishop Donald Wuerl of Pittsburgh today narrowly lost an election to become vice president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops to Cardinal Francis George of Chicago, who won, 51 to 49 percent, in a runoff. The vice president is virtually assured election as president after a three-year term learning the ropes.
Bishop William Skylstad of Spokane, Wash., was elected president with 52 percent
