Tocsin to Send Group To Support Kowalski In Connecticut Contest

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Tocsin will send about 50 students to Waterbury Conn., Saturday to campaign for Rep. Frank Kowalski, who is seeking the Democratic nomination for Senator from Connecticut. Kowalski, a former Army colonel who has compiled an independent voting record during two terms in the House, faces a tough battle against Abraham Ribicoff, the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare.

Headed by Christopher A. Sims '62, the Tocsin group will ring doorbells and pass out literature to away Waterbury Democrats to send a pro-Kowalski slate of delegates to the state nominating convention in July.

Although it is against Tocsin policy to endorse any office-seeker, the disarmament group has organized the campaign effort for Kowalski because he has taken "pro-peace" stands including opposition to the dispersal of nuclear weapons to other nations and was an early advocate of a U.S. disarmament agency.
