Roberts said "most of our faces are red" becaue of failure to sense the trend to Truman.

"We didn't do the job of old fashioned reporting we should hsve." he explained. "It wasn't intentional. I am sure." Iowa Couple Are Typical Visitors To Rio Grande BROWNSVILLE. Nov. Iowa man and hi! wife were pre sented Friday as the official winter viiitors to the lower Grande valley.
