Nixon Assails Attacks on Case In Jersey Race
Washington—U.P.)-Vice President Richard M. Nixon today assailed attacks on Clifford P. Case, New Jersey GOP senatorial candidate, and said a story linking his sister with Communist front organizations will help Case's campaign.
Nixon told a reporter on his arrival here from his latest campaign swing that "there is no man who has more intelligently and vigorously fought the Communists" than Case, a former Republican congressman.
"Any political enemies who would stoop so low as to attack him through his sister are going to help his campaign," Nixon declared.
The vice president said the charges against Case's sister, printed yesterday in the Newark Star-Ledger, would aid Case's candidacy because such tactics "offend the American sense of fair play."
The newspaper quoted Dr. Bella V. Dedd, a former member of the national committee of the Communist party who was ousted in 1949, as saying Case's sister, Adelaide Case, was "an active member of several Communist front groups I helped organize" in the 1940's.
Case denounced the story as "gutter politics at its worst" and promised a full answer. Miss Case teacher in a Michigan girls school.

After two years of scheming, government red tape, and even the consideration of marriage, George Detsios, special student from Cyprus, has at last received his immigration papers.

PROSPECTIVE NEW CITIZEN—George Detsios, special student from Cyprus, has recently received his immigration papers. Here he shows customer a notebook at his job in the Student Union Bookstore.
Now, content and still a bachelor,
he is waiting for the call from his
draft board. Dettios is taking the
boomerang willingly, however, for
his naturalization period will auto-
lize him jump from five years to
90 days.
"To get my records declared in order I spent the whole past year periodically visiting the immigration office in Kansas City and calling every police station I could remember," he said.
Detiosis, whose agreeable manner has made him friends in nearly every house on the hill, came to Kansas from England in 1952 on a scholarship from the Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity. Now an active member of the group, he is serving as ritualist.
Having joined right in with Hill activities, Detsios was elected as foreign student representative to the All Student Council last year. He especially likes to work with dancing and skits and will be remembered by many for his numbers in the College Daze production.
A graduate of the University of Manchester, England, the 24-year-old Detsius holds a degree in textile engineering. He returned to his home in Cyprus after graduation, and employed by Cyprus Textiles, Ltd.
A familiar figure in the Union book store, Detsiws has stayed on campus and worked every summer in anticipation of receiving his papers. After the army, he hopes to return and complete work toward a degree in business, because, as he says, "I just like it here."
