GOP Model Convention Preparation
Activities Increase as Date Nears
By STEVE GREEN
Political Affairs Editor
Over four months of behind
the-scenes planning will come to
a head this weekend at the GOP
Model Convention, April 24-25.
Jim Jones, general chairman, |
and his steering committee have
developed plans for the conven
tion that will allow a maximum
of student participation. It is pat
terned directly after the Repub
lican Convention to be held in
San Francisco this summer.
The goal of the mock conven-1
tion activities is to give those stu
dents who are interested the
chance to acquaint themselves
with the happenings of a political
convention. Although many feel
that the endorsement of their par
ticular candidate is the most im
portant thing, the basic idea is
| that of a learning experience.
Candidates Backed
Delegates representing the re
spective states were to have re
1 searched the political situation in
j their particular state and arrived
at some sort of a conclusion as
j to how that state is apt to vote in
the coming election.
Some student organizations sup
porting the various candidates
have been organized for months
whereas others are still barely
getting off the ground in this the
last week before the convention.
The “College Students for
Rockefeller” under the leadership
of Bill Pollock were the first to
organize Throughout the entire
post-convention activities, they
have had the best organization.
Goldwater Support
The campaign for Senator Bary
Goldwater is headed up by Dave
Williams. Williams has been able
to get tremendous support in
1 spite of a lack of cohesion in his
organization
Steve McLaughlin has been in
charge of the Scranton drive, and
the draft Lodge movement got
: underway a few weeks ago under
the direction of Bob Ried. Senator
Margaret Chase Smith has had
very little support outside of the
Maine delegation
A movement to back former
, vice-president Richard Nixon was
| started last week by Lynn Fox
and Karen Long.
On the opening day of the con
m:.

That authentic tailored V-Tapered fit
is so-o-o perfect for his physique. In

volition, April 24, delegates will
have an opportunity to hear
spokesman from two various view
points within the Republican
Party. Sen. Goldwater will speak
in McArthur Court the afternoon
preceding the opening of the con
vention.
Later that evening, Rep John
1 V. Lindsay of New York, a liberal,
will be the keynote speaker. Gold
water and Lindsay represent op
posite extremes in the Republican
' party and should give the dele
gates a fairly clear picture of
where they differ.
