M iss Mannes* most recent
book,
the autobiographical
"O u t of My Time,” was pub­
lished last year and now is in
its fourth printing. The title ,
she has sale, has a double
edge; ‘ ‘ What better synonym
fo r Not W ith It?”
Said the Wall Street Journal
•n a review of the work;
“ Ms. Mannes is diversely
talented, formidably vigorous
and strikingly attractive to any
mar; who doesn't frighten eas­
ily. She is a novelist, essay­
ist, journalist, editor, TV
commentator, skilled public
speaker, m all categories out­
spoken on society, manners,
m orals, taste, po ltics. the
At a press conference on the
eve of the P rim a ry Election,
Representative Patsy Mink
(Dem.-Hawaii) said she be­
lieves her winning of the Ore­
gon Presidential P rim ary to
tw possible.
Regardless of the outcome
of the vote she feels that she
has accomplished what she
came to Oregon to achieve and
has fu lfille d her commitment
to her supporters.Sheentered
the Oregon P runary atthe re­
quest of Oregon citizens, who
placed her name on the ballot
by petition. She agreed to
campaign m Oregon to prove
that it is possible fo r an o rd i­
nary American - a non-white
and a woman - to establish a
viable campaign and get a
message across with little
money but with grass roots
support.
She believes she has ex­
plained the issues, has an­
swered the concerns of c iti­
zens, am! has attempted to
bring citizen participation to
the political scene. Shehopes

Representative Mink said
her reason fo r campaigning in
Oregon was to w intlieelection
and Oregon’ s delegate vote.
If site were to win the Ore­
gon delegation. Representa­
tive M ink would need a total of
fifty delegates from at least
three states to place hername
in nomination at the Conven­
tion.
It Representative Mink does
not win the Oregon election,
she does not plan to seek the
needed fifty delegates, she has
not campaigned in any other
state.
Representative Mink does
not feel the organized women's
vote w ill make a noticeable
difference in this election, she
views the organization of the
National Women's P olitical
Caucus to he significant fo r the
future, ami that women's par­
ticipation in government w ill
grow. She encourages women
to become active in politics
