Los Angeles area occultist and member of the Church of the Dawn, Robert DeLuce (1`877-1964) was regarded as an authority on Hindu astrology. He also authored the books, Rectification of the Horoscope, The Complete Method of Prediction, Horary Astrology, and wrote yearly predictions for the local Mirror News. His forecast for Nixon in the December 26th, 1959 paper reads: "Dick Nixon was born Jan. 9 1913, making him a Capricorn....Nixon and the other goats will run into unusually stiff opposition. Nixon will win the Republican nomination, but right now I'd say the odds are against his election."
