I came here today after accidentally finding other photojournalist images for that October 8th 1960 Oregonian article on Senator Kennedy’s campaign through Oregon as we are still local natives to Portland; our mother Frances Seibold [deceased in 2005] was photographed for this same story, she is seen with our aunt nearly falling at the edge of a stage where Senator Kennedy spoke that night. The caption reads: “PRESS OF CROWD on stage after Kennedy’s Portland speech forced some people out back stage door and one lady almost fell from loading platform.” *See the Original article if available. I have the original news clip and accidentally discovered it one day recently as it came up in a random Bing Search Engine. Can The Oregonian display that one here with original page and caption and the Original front page with Kennedy? Thank you for taking my comment and question. - signed: Mark Seibold, eldest son of our mother in photo aforementioned above. *See my attached images which I have researched and displayed in my Facebook > http://www.dpreview.com/galleries/1579463287/photos/1949376/mominoregoniannewsatkennedycampaignsept8_1960_insetenlargedwithnewsprintcaption

At a campaign speech by Sen. John F. Kennedy on Sept. 7, 1960, the crush of the crowd forced some people out the back stage door of Portland's Civic Auditorium. In the speech, Kennedy spoke both of containing the spread of communism around the world, but also of promoting peace and disarmament.
