WASHINGTON, I). t\—Gov ernor Ronald Reagan of Califor nia told Republican congression al leaders today he is ending out-of-state speaking tours with a current round of 10 speeches in four states. Reagan met with Republican leaders of House and Senate and National Chairman Ray Bliss for an hour, and told a brief news conference he had found a new spirit of enthusiasm among Republicans everywhere he has gone. Reagan, expected to head a California favorite son delega tion to the fJOP presidential nominating convention, has been looked upon as a possibly seri ous contender for first place on the ticket. Those who attended the con ference said, however, that the Appeal Planned In Kunkle Case Attorney for Ronald Kunkle, Charles O. Porter, said Wednes day he plans to try to get the Kugene School Board to change its mind on the discharge of the fifth grade teacher. The decision to uphold the firing of Kunkle was made after a hearing which ended Tuesday. Porter said he might go to the Intermediate Education Board or to the courts if necessary. Kunkle, who was fired for in subordination and inefficiency, maintains his dismissal was due to his beliefs about controversial issues, such as civil rights and the Vietnam war. governor had said specifically he plans no further out-of-state speeches until the August con vention. This would eliminate any campaigning in states where his name probably will be entered in primaries. • * * LINCOLN, Neb. — Secretary of State Frank Marsh says that if he were to pick names for Nebraska’s presidential prefer ence primary ballot at this time, he would list at least six presidential prospects, includ ing New York Governor Nelson Rockefeller. Marsh will make his final de cision on May 14 primary can didates on Feb. 14. Nebraska’s law is modeled on Oregon’s where the names of those being placed on the ballot will be an nounced in mid March. Marsh said other Republicans he would list as of now are Cali fornia Governor Ronald Reagan, and two active candidates, for mer Vice-President Richard Nix on and Michigan Governor George Romney. Democrats wno would go on the ballot are President Johnson and Senator Eugene McCarthy of Minnesota. Other possibilities, he said, arc Democratic Senator Robert Kennedy and Republican Sena tor Charles Percy. Alabama Governor George Wallace would go on the ballot as a third party presidential prospect if Wallace announces his candidacy and if his Ne braska supporters meet statu tory requirements for forming a third party in the state, Marsh said. Consideration might also be given the alternative of listing Wallace on the Democratic tick et, he noted. A listed candidate has 30 days after Feb. 14 to withdraw his name by affidavit. Names also c5n be added to the primary' ballot list via petitions signed by at least 100 voters in each of the state’s three congressional districts. Marsh said he has not wholly ruled out consideration of three additional Republicans, Senator Mark Hatfield of Oregon, New York Mayor John Lindsay and Ohio Governor James Rhodes, but at this time all are “sort of doubtful.” Want to really get results?
