...campaign to awaken America to the danger of Communism last week had led Fred Schwarz to Oakland. There, for five days of sessions that began at 8:30 a.m. and, with coffee and mealtime breaks, ended at 10:30 p.m., Schwarz's catechumens filed into the auditorium, their number increasing as the week went on.
