| Pope installs Quevedo, 18 new VATICAN CITY – Pope Francis appointed his first batch of cardinals yesterday, as his predecessor Benedict made a surprise rare appearance at the ceremony naming the new "princes of the Church". The new cardinals were presented with scarlet-red birettas and gold rings at a grandiose ceremony in St. Peter's Basilica that Vatican observers say should help correct a perceived bias towards European cardinals. Nine of the 19 cardinals appointed came from South America, Africa and Asia, including Cardinal Orlando Quevedo of the Philippines. | |||||||||||||||||||
