TEXAS "REGULARS" Pressing the cause of the Texas "regu
lars" before the Democratic convention credentials committt at
Chicago, Governor Allan Shivers (facing camera) turns to confer
with Leroy Jeffers of Houston and Wright Morrow (right).
Western Delegates
Taking New Counts
As Balloting Hears
Chicago 0J.R) The chair
men of eight delegations from
Western states were taking new
polls of their groups at the
Democratic convention Wednes
day, but they admitted the re
sults may mean nothing by
Thursday.
Preliminary nose- counting
among the 160 delegates showed
only a couple of votes for Gov
Adlai Stevenson.
If the Illinois governor s
band-wagon keeps rolling, the
chairmen said, he may get 100
or more by the second or third
convention ballot.
Polls Could Be Upset
The polls also could be upset
by a rumored alliance between
Sen. Estes Kefauver and mutual
security administrator Averell
Harriman. Kefauver has 90
nledeed votes in California and
Oregon, and he and Harriman
have scattered votes in other
delegations.
The preliminary polls, outside
the pledge California and Ore
gort groups, gave these results:
Utah Harriman, 6V2; Sen
Robert S. Kerr, 2; Sen. Richard
R Russell. 2: Kefauver, 1, un
committed, V2.
Idaho Harriman, 5: Kefau
ver, 5; Kerr, 2.

Adventist camp meeting near
Portland.
. Honored in a Saturday eve
ning laymen's service were Elsie
Arnold, Gladys and Frank Arn
old, B. F. Blank, E. R. and Fern

vin Siemson, Bertha Work and
Frank and Myrtle Archer.
To Honor Others
There were other Medford
persons scheduled for honors,
but they were not present at
the meeting and will receive rec
ognition later.
Offerings for the first Sabbath
were $21,173, according to R. T.
Emery, secretary and treasurer
of the Oregon conference. There
are 15,000 attending the camp
meeting.
A blood mobile unit operating
on the grounds received over 200
pints of blood from the camp
ers. Pastor O. E. Schnepper, Mel
vin Tompkins and Lyle Corn
forth, all of Medford, were
among the donors.

Washington uncommitted,
22, with Kefauver and Harri
man strength about equally
divided.
Montana Stevenson, 1; Har
riman, 1; uncommitted, 10.
California Waits Word
The California delegation
waited for word from Kefauver
on the reported Harriman merg
er. Chairman George Miller Jr.,
said he was "certain" that Ke
fauver would be in the top spot
if a coalition is formed.
An Oregon delegate said that
Stevenson would be "very ac
ceptable" to that group if Ke
fauver fades after the first bal
lot. Idaho was struggling under a
unit rule to get an agreement on
one candidate in spite of the
even break given by 10 of the
12 delegates between Harriman
and Kefauver.
Nevada Votes to Scatter
A Nevada source said that
delegation's votes would scatter
among several candidates if
Russell is through. One Mon
tana delegate was working for
first ballot votes for Stevenson,
although the delegation has. an
informal agreement to vote ini
tially for Sen. James E. Mur
ray as a favorite son.
The Washington and Arizona
chairmen said- they had taken
no formal polls of their delega
tions up to Tuesday and were
only estimating the strength of
the candidates.
