LOCAL YOUTH PRESENTS BUST TO KENEDY
Joseph A. Faga, 243 S. Main St., has presented Robert F. Kennedy a bust he made of the attorney general.
The presentation was made Monday at the New York City apartment of Stephen Smith, a brother-in-law of Kennedy.
Congressman alexander Pirnie, who had made arrangements, flew to New York for the presentation and introduction of Faga.
Faga, who has a talent for sculpure, last September presented a bust of President John F. Kennedy to a White House aide. At the time he was a Herkimer High School senior, a teenage immigrant from Italy who had become a citizen only four months previously.
The presentation of the second bust, of the attorney general, was made shortly before Kennedy spoke to the American Bar Assn. in New York. Pirnie said the attorney general was "very gracious," repeating the acceptance for photographers who were late.
