Pope John Paul I smiles and waves with both hands to crowd filling St. Peter's Square August 26, 1978 when the former patriarch of Venice appeared on the balcony of St. Peter's Basilica, short time after the white smoke coming out of the chimney of the Sistine Chapel, indicating that the conclavists had elected a successor for Pope Paul VI. He is flanked by Msgr. Virgilio Noe', master of the pontifical office, right, and Msgr. Orazio Cocchetti, left, also of the pontifical ceremonies office. (Photo by AP Photo)
