Frederick Henry ("Derek") Curtis-Bennett, 52, pudgy, bespectacled defense counsel for some of Britain's most notorious lawbreakers, among them: Traitor William ("Lord Haw-Haw") Joyce, Multiple Murderer John Christie. Atom Spy Klaus Fuchs; of acute alcoholism, less than three months after the suicide of his pretty, 26-year-old second wife; in London...

Dawn also unveiled three signs protesting "Traitor" in foot-high red letters. But ex-State Department Employee Hiss, 51, appearing before about 200 students and 50 newsmen, spoke with dry pedantry on "The Meaning of Geneva," dulled his 25-minute discourse further with many a soporific quotation. His main, unoriginal point: the suicidal nature of modern nuclear...
