      15 Become Citizens
      Fifteen persons became citizens of the United States Tuesday morning in naturalization court at the Jefferson county court house. The oath of allegiance was administered
      by Supreme Court Justice Henry A. Hudson.
      Becoming citizens were:
      Rev. Charles A. Guillot, 218 Stone street, chaplain at Mercy hospital;
      William A. Sylvain, 666 Thompson street;
      Mrs. Helga M. Taylor, Black River;
      Mrs. Erika J. Wixted, Dry Hill;
      Gene F. Jobson, La-Fargeville, Route 1;
      Tibor Halmos, Floral drive; William D. Stata, 902 Myrtle Avenue;
      Mrs. Kristen A. Benner, 642 Emerson street;
      Mrs. Dianne Booth, LaFargeville, Route 1;
      Mrs. Mary Hlad, Lowville, Route 4;
      Mrs. Vera E. Fraley, Evans Mills;
      Mrs. Renate E. Sullivan, Harrisville, Route 1;
      Mrs. Sonja C. Wahl, Clayton, Route 2;
      Stephen G. A. and Danuta Bydlinski, 140 North Indiana avenue,
      The Bydlinski children, brother and sister, were granted citizenship on a petition
      sought by their father, Kazimierz Bydlinski.
      The petitioners were presented to the court by Richard Obringer, Buffalo, an examiner
      with the justice department. "Those who become citizens now have a good deal of
      courage," said Justice Hudson. "It is essential if we are going to have to support
      the people of the world, we are going to have to assume the leadership of the world,"
      he said.
