Crawfordsville youths named for Nixon committees
Crawfordsville Co Chairmen for the Washington County Committee to Re-Elect the President announced today the appointment of college student Bill Tweeton and University of Iowa student Rachael Nicola as Co Chairmen for college students for the Re-Election of the President. They will work with young voters answering questions and urging participation and voting on November. Vetter and Rhea said this is a crucial election year and we want to see Nixon re elected as well as a Congress with which he can work. Although Nixon has done a magnificent job the past four years, we have been plagued by a reluctant, obtrusive and slow Democratic Congress.
