Arkansas' Democratic Representative Dale Alford is an ophthalmologist-and he knows how to interpret political eye-charts.

Segregationist Alford was elected to Congress in 1958 with the hefty help of Segregationist Faubus.

Says Indiana's Clarence Manion onetime dean of Notre Dame Law School and a veteran anti-Communist lecturer and writer, who claims to have 350 Conservative Clubs in operation: "I've never seen anything like this...
