Kennedy Backers To Meet Tonight

Marion County backers of U.S. Sen. John F. Kennedy for the Democratic presidential nomination will get a chance to meet the second of his campaigning brothers at a meeting in the courthouse at 7:30 p.m. today.

Attorney Ted Kennedy will come here to confer about plans for his brother's visit to Fairmont a week from today. Attorney Robert Kennedy, counsel for the Senate Rackets Committee, met local leaders in Clarksburg last week.

Sen. Kennedy will be in Fairmont for several hours next Monday afternoon but his whirlwind schedule does not call for a formal speech. Plans will be made to have him meet as many voters as possible during his trip here and other details for the campaign will be outlined at tonight's meeting.
