Officials Must Visa Problem Of Enid Airman
Manila reports say a U S Air Force sergeant in Enid Oklahoma faces a visa decision for his 14 year old Filipino stepdaughter Rocela Tacana. A support document signed by Sgt Walter T Gross Jr was radioed to the U S consulate as immigration officials require further proof including a police clearance before a final ruling Tuesday is made. Rocela undergoes medical exams while guardian Gregorio Quijano travels with more documentation to secure entry under evolving immigration rules. The girl had been left with Quijano near Clark Air Base since 1951 when the Gross family could not take her to the United States.
