Kefauver Delegation Accused Of Free Train Ride Tickets

Dave Foutz, who led the Tennessee senator’s Southern California campaign, says eight tickets were bought to influence delegates at the convention. Names and details were reportedly known to printers, with one purchaser later identified as Anson Ford. Two California delegates and a delegate’s husband reportedly collected ten of the eight tickets, with a theft report filed at an Oakland baseball park office.
