Dufford, a citizen of Newberry, is one of five South Carolinians who will be heard on Radio Moscow’s Eng lish-language broadcasts to the North American area of the world. Dufford and four others, while visiting in the Soviet Union re cently, were asked by Radio Mos cow officials to comment upon their tour of Russia. Their ans wers were heard by short wave radio operators in the entire Northwestern area of the world. This interview, with added com ments by WBT commentator Allan Newcomb, will be rebroadcast on WBT Radio this Sunday night at 7:30 and will be available to New berry listeners at that time. Newcomb uses the interviews with the five South Carolinians to point out Soviet methods of brain washing the English - speaking world, and says that South Caro linians being gracious and polite by nature have no choice but to compliment the things they have seen in a foreign country, when asked by their hosts for an opin ion of this type. Newcomb also comments on the background of claims made by the Soviet radio forces. In addition to WBT’s Carolinas audience, next Sunday, Dufford’s interview will be heard by hund reds of thousands of other Am ericans, during the next week, as WBT’s syndicated rebroadcasts of Radio Moscow programs are sent out to various stations across the country. The Russian broadcast series, developed by WBT and Allan Newcomb in 1959 and winner of a Freedoms Foundation Award, was adopted by the U. S. Junior Chambers- of Commerce as a 1964 project with the aim of placing it on all major stations in the na tion. Other South Carolinians to be heard on Sunday night’s program are Paul Stansbury, city attorney of Darlington; Walter Gregg, Bennettsville mayor; D. C. Huff, former Lancaster mayor and Ker- mit J.
