But it will not be labeled as sucn. crowd clones in. Now, instead of running, he has to shove; jostle and squirm for his life. Let's look in on Gov. Avert II Harrimaa of New York.

IV I : MatefctogPlao DV llCUUCrUCI In three aspects the Democrat Plank Urged Neuberger WASHINGTON III Sea. Neu berger D-Ore said Sunday he believes the Democratic platform should endorse" the Supreme Court's school desegregation ord er. But he isnl sure he would want to spark a convention fight on the Issue. Neuberger. leader of Oregon's delegation to the Democratic nom inating session, said in a turned television interview Reporters' Roundup) that U write a civil rights plank without mentioning the Supreme Court would be "LIKE writing about baseball tad not mentioning Babe Ruth." "The biggest fact of life la the civil rights situation. . Js the Su preme Court decision," he added. "How csn we avoid X?"' Neuherger wss asked If 'he would be willisg to lead a fight on the convention floor If the plat form committee does not recom mead mention of the court's de cision. ' '- "I don't know whether a very Junior Senator whe has never been to Convention before -will lead a fight on It," be replied. 'V . J . don't know what I will do at the convention fn explicit terms. Questioned about possible Dem ocratic Vice Presidential candi "dates, Neuberger said the field "seemed to narrow down" to Seas Kefsuver Teaa, Humphrey (Minn ond Kennedy (Mass). "at seems at me that Sen. Humphrey is probably slightly ahead," he said in response to question. The Oregon delegation, Neuberg er said, ia pledged to vote for Kefeuver lor Vice President "un til be releases as." Should they be released from this pledge that stems from the Oregon primary results, Neuherger said the dele gation "is probably divided" be tweea Humphrey and Kennedy.

CHICAGO sm Oregon's Dem ocratic convention delegates., at their first get-together, were cheered by word Sunday night of a growing ground swell for Sea. Estes Kefauver of Tennessee as the Vice Presidential nominee. Oregon is the only state pledged te cast its ballot for both a Presi dential and Vice Presidential nom inee in this case, Adlai Stev enson and Kefauver. A report that Kefauver is growing tremendously" aa the convention's possible second-place choice on a ticket headed by Ste venson was given the Oregon cau cus by J. Howard McGrath. a Ke fauver lieutenant and former at torney general in the Truman ad miniatratioa. McGrath assured Oregon's dele gates that if, in Stevenson's Judg ment, Kefauver "can serve the ticket ia any way, he is avail able to do so." Ready ia geaond Sen. Richard Neuberger, dele gation chairman, advised dele gates he was prepared to second Kefauver's nomination, but felt a Tennesseesa should nominate him. Neuberger had been discussed by Oregon delegates for the role af placing Kefauver's name be fore the convention. In a statement to the delegates, Neuberger said: "I told Senator Kefauver that I felt his chances would be en hanced if some one from his home state placed his name in nomina tion, but that I would be pleased ta make a seconding speech as chairman of the Oregon delega tion If that should Be" his wish." Plrdced la Estes Neuberger said ha (old Steven- soo and Kefauver Oregon's IS con-, vent ion votes are pledged to them "until death do us part," and as-; serted; "In my Judgment, the Demo cratic voters of Oregon have pledged our IS votes, by their ac- tion at the polls, to a strong ticket cnaracienzea by Integrity, states manship and liberalism . . ." No further caucus of the dele gation is planned until next Wed nesday, the day before the ballot ing starts. ; Three delegates were unable to attend the convention, and their; place were filled by alternates. They are Walter J. Pearson of j Portland, whose seat as delegate ' at lane was taken by alternate Ken Rinse of Portland: Multno-I man County commissioner M j James- C lesson, whose place will ; be taken by Larry Aylesworth of j Greshamv and Austin P.

Dnasaeaiers Coavene Take his decision to go from the Vtt floor af the Conrad Hil ton, where he keeps bis office, to the ' 3rd floor, where open house is held for Stevenson backers. Oa the way down one Stevenson drumbrater said to another Ste venson drumbrater: "What's he going to do down here, and how long will he stay'" "He'll shake hands an around. I He stays M minutes." : The curious part of this conver sation is thst they talked acmes! Stevenson as if he already had become a piece of statuary. Downstairs there was a rcene1 which would, have caused anyone una are of the circumstances to have thought it was a mob come no, te praise Stevenson, but to lynch him. But somehow hands were shakes, and pictures were taken. Stage directions were followed exactly. It took precisely If min utes. Physical Beatiag Thr physical beating a man lakes simply trying out- for the Job to say nothing of the long campaign that lies ahead for the winner suggests the Democrats hare been shopping in the wrong ciace for their candidate. The College All-Stars were in torn last week, and one of them, say. a loo-pnund fullback, looks like the ideal man for the tight squeezes. Much of this, of course, also ex isted in Wilson's day. But the electronic age has added new hat- ards A candidate continuously fares a battery of bright lights, and must' make bis way through a maze of television and newjrccl equipment And the moment he-opens hs mouth so much as a half inch, someone sticks a microphone in it. Possibly the roughest chore fell te Gov. Frank G. Clement of Trn nrsree, who will make the key note address Monday night. News reel people felt they needed to re cord some of his speech in ad vance, so they could get it out clone behind the great event. Clement dutifully recorded a few paragraphs for them. How anyone could work up a redhot lather, at 10:30 on a Sunday morning in an almost empty ho tel ballroom, remains mysterious. Rut those who heard him said the governor did okay. Fighter Plane Landed After Air Explosion SPOKANE U" - Aa Air National Guard pilot from Geiger Air Force Base near here was credited with averting the second "major trag edy al the installation in two suc cessive days. Guard officials of ' the ,116th Fighter-Interceptor Squadron said Cant. Floyd A. Howard managed to land his F-M Starfire jet after aa explosion shook his craft while I he was taking off Sunday morn ing. Guard officials said Howard told them he had just touched off and was attempting to put In the aft er burner" a device to give added acceleration and nothing happened. Howard tried it again and t b r explosion shuddered through his jet. They said Howard banked his jet in a I SO degree turn and ap proaches1 the field on another run way. He dropped his two wingtip 1 gas tanks and they crashed ta earth within a 100 yards of a home near the field. They fafled to ex plode. Howard, as guard officers put it, "then just made it in." Flying with Howard, a Spokane police motorcycle officer, was Capt. Ivan B. Browa, acting as aa instructor from the Air Force.- Guard officers said the Sunday near-mishap was Howard's fifth accident ia eight years with the National Guard. On Saturday, Capt. Bryoo C. Kirk, another guard pilot, suc cessfully landed a B-2S bomber at Geiger after a nose wheel blew out. The pilot had his three-man crew climb to the rear sect ion of the bomber to keep the weight off the blow-out nose wheeL J Domo Keynoter's Wife 'An Eye-Catcher' Snake River ' - '-J '' - v4 .v N .... - .
