Polk Reports to AVC on Trial of Brother's Killers

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

William R. Polk '51 will report on the trial of the convicted murderers of his brother, George, at a meeting of the American Veterans Committee at 7:30 p.m. tonight in the Shephard Room of Phillips Brooks House.

Sponsored by the Newsman's Commission to Investigate the Murder of George Polk, Polk left the United States April 5 for Salonika, Greece, the scene of the CBS correspondent's murder and the subsequent trial.
