Prank Appeal Seeking
Eichmann Aid Rapped
MANCHESTER, N.H., (JTA)
—The Manchester Union this
week denounced editorially an
apparent prank appeal in the
student newspaper of Keene
Teachers College for contribu-
tions to save Adolf Eichmann,
the Nazi war criminal now
awaiting trial in Israel.
The Manchester newspaper
reproduced the editorial from
The Monadnock and said, "If
this is supposed to - be humor,
it is in atrocious bad taste. If
it is a serious piece, it is com-
pletely fantastic that a sup-
posedly responsible publication
of a normal school, which is
preparing teachers, should al-
low such an article to appear."
Readers of the student edi-
torial were advised to send their
contributions to "Wilhelm
Schmidt, chairman of the Com-
mittee to Save Adolf Eichmann,
Buenos Aires, Argentina."
