Comic crackdown says Iowa newsstands improving
Iowa City detectives report progress in removing objectionable comics from stands with dealers cooperating. Still some pocketbooks and girly magazines remain. A crash injures Charles Swords in Oxford Junction while Abdul Naeem eyes lectures on communism, and a retired New York policeman recalls Bronco Charlie Miller. The Daily Iowan notes a small rise in horror or crime comics across ten stands last October versus the most recent check.
