Little displaced person Lydia Fedial, six, one of the 813 DP's to arrive here today on the U.S. Transport General Black finds herself among friends she likes as she accepts some candy from the Rev. Joseph P. Koncous, president of the United Lithuanian Relief, one of the many organizations whose representatives met the ship when it docked late this afternoon. Lydia, with a foresight that does credit to her years, is clutching a book on basic English in her other hand.
