Description
See-Sue Eng and his refugee family from Hong Kong, China, are at the bedside of Eng's critically ill father, Frank Jing Eng, in his home at Park Ridge, a Chinese suburb, today. The family was the first admitted to this country under President Kennedy's emergency admission program. They were rushed to the older Eng's bedside because it is believed he has only a short time to live. In rear is Mrs. Eng, with daughter Mee-Har, 16, left. Holding grandfather's hand is Mee-Won, 12 and Leng-Hun, 9.
