Mrs. Nixon Plans To "Follow Dick" During Campaign Colorado Springs, Colo ftl.R) Mrs. Richard (Patricia) Nixon, wife of the vice president, said today she will "follow Dick wherever he goes" on his cam paign "because people want to see what the other half of the team looks like." Why is she along on the cur rent 18-day, 32-state campaign trip? She gives her answer: "I found out a long time ago, 1948 to be exact, that the volun teer women in the Republican party wanted to see who a can didate for Congress would marry. Later they wanted to see who the vice president married. Most people want to see what kind of a woman a major political can didate has married. That's why I'm here." The attractive auburn - haired Mrs. Nixon, outwardly as enthu siastic as her husband about pol itics, admits that "I'm only the second cog in this thing. He's carrying the load. "If the children weren't with his mother. Mrs. Frank A. Nix on, recently widowed, I'd be having a fit. Otherwise. I have been able to help him on about everything. I have visions of him turning up ai some im portant rally without seeks or something. I don't know how he gets dressed when. I'm not along." Tha "second half" of the Nix on team, always trim, chie and smiling, admits that she "really loves campaigning." She says "Washington is very sophisticat ed." but that she likes to "get out and see what the rest of the country is thinking about." She has no doubts the Eisenhower-Nixon ticket will be re elected in November.
