Long Beach attorney Joseph A. Ball announced in Los Angeles that he will chair a bipartisan California citizen’s committee backing Senator Eugene J. McCarthy.

Brown, tied his support to McCarthy’s Vietnam war stance and his challenge to the Asian conflict, while noting Brown’s associates back Johnson in California and predicting a large volunteer movement as thousands of California youths may join the campaign.
