AIRPLANE THEFT '
Des Moines, la. U.R) Car

ter by machinist Delbert Necse,
24, who stole an airplane. Neese
languished in jail Saturday after
admitting he stole a Piper Cub

UNSANITARY
Norfolk, Va. (U.R) The
old shaving brush and porcelain
mug will soon fade into oblivion,
pie city health department has
banned the use of brushes, mugs
and neck clusters after Sept. 1 as
unsanitary. . .
I
Here's a
good idea '
to remember for
vourvacation trip: Kellogg'a
All-Bran.
AU-Bran. you know, helps
'avoid irregularity due to
lack of dietary bulk. And so
often on a trip we eat dif
ferently and don't get the
bulk we need. (the gentle
roughage that helps keep us
regular).
Take a box of All-Bran
with you. or ask for it in the
new aluminum foil "Individ
ual" packageaatrestaurants
along the way.
Chicago (U.R) The dele
gates had expected a fast break
away by Sen. Estes Kefauver
but many figured he would fade
in the stretch.
He was carrying the same
handicaps he has long carried
opposition from the South and
from many top party leaders.
But presidential nominee Ad
lai E. Stevenson gave Kefauver
his chance by calling for an open
contest over the vice presiden
tial nomination instead of the
usual dictated choice.
So Kefauver' name was
placed before the convention
along with those of Sen. John F.
Kennedy of Massachusetts, Sen.
Albert Gore of Tennessee, Sen.
Hubert H. Humphrey of Minne
sota, Mayor Robert F. Wagner
Jr. of New York, Gov. Luther
H. Hodges of North Carolina
and Gov. Leroy Collins of Flori
da. Early Lead Expected 1
Kefauver's opposition had
conceded him an edge on the
first ballot. It was assumed that
he had a better organized bloc
of supporters based on the dele
gates he won in presidential pri
maries before he withdrew as a
candidate for the presidential
nomination.
The first ballot followed the
form chart. It gave Kefauver
483V of the 686V4 needed to
win. Among the other major
contenders, Kennedy had 304,
Gore 178, "Wagner '162i and
Humphrey 134V4.
An unusual stop-Kefauver
lineup was developing with
Southern states combining with
an eastern bloc and some anti
Kefauver organization Demo
crats from other states.
On the second ballot, this al
liance swung behind Kennedy.
Cumulative totals on the tabu
lating machines showed a real
horse race was under way.
Kennedy Surges Ahead
Then Kennedy began to pull
away. Illinois gave him 5414;
New York left Wagner and gave
96V4 to Kennedy; Texas threw
him a big 56 votes.
But the word came that Gore
might withdraw' and throw his
support to his fellow senator
from Tennessee. That would
mean 32 Tennessee votes for
Kefauver, who had scant help
from his home -state Democrats
this year in his bids for 'the
presidential and vice presiden
tial nominations.
After the first go-around on
the second ballot, state stand
ards began to wave. Convention
Chairman Sam Rayburn first
recognized (Kentucky, which
switched 30 votes to Kennedy.
At that point, Kennedy had
646 and Kefauver 551V4.
Sens. Lyndon B. Johnson of
Texas and George Smathers of
Florida. Kennedy backers, were
seen working on Got. Raymond
Gary of Oklahoma, who had cast
his state's 30 votes for Gore.
Gary must have told them Ken
nedy lacked appeal to the farm
belt.
Tennessee Starts Stamped
Then Gore withdrew, Ten
nessee shifted its votes from him
to Kefauver and the stampede
started. Oklahoma .switched its
30 to Kefauver. State' standards
began waving all over the cav
ernous convention hall. . .
Minnesota, which had divided
its 30 votes between Kefauver
and Humphrey, reported - t h a t
Humphrey wanted them all to
go to Kefauver. Another Mid
western state, Missouri, threw
36 votes to Kefauver and the
scramble was on.
When all the switches were
recorded, Kefauver had 755Vs,
Kennedy 589 and the other can
didates 27'i. Kennedy went to
the hall from, the nearby Stock
yards Inn and asked that Ke
fauver be nominated by accla
mation. 1 -
Rayburn put the question to
a voice vote which brought a
thunder . of "ayes." But "noes"
were heard, too, from the- south.
i The Sault Canal on the Michigan-Ontario
border annually
carries more shipping traffic
than the Suez, Kiel and Panama
Canals combined. It was opened
in 1855, connecting Lake Super
