This is yhe message 57-yearold Cosmo Iracetta, father of the
Far Rockaway man killed last

show "The'Man From U.N.C.L.E." after t h e actor reportedly
said United States fighting men
in Vietnam" arc dropouts, unemployabjes and unintelligent.
Pacetta, "^/vho reportedly says
he i s organizing a. campaign to
have the ifijtor: blacklisted, alsj)
opposes a fnovement started by
Vaughn to u n s e a t President
Johnson in] next year's election
or, a t least| to provoke a Change
in the President's position in
Vietnam. ( J h e actor i s said to
be planning a national advertising campaign by Democrats
who votedlfor Johnson In 1964
but now oppose him because of
his Vietnarri policy.)
Reportedly, a s far as Pacetta
is concerned, Vaughn should not
be allowed t o continue on TV.
Calls fljfay Bio Injurious

deluge of jjelqphone calls which
