Carson of Portland last week, yesterday announced the county veterans committee which will work for the reelection of Sen. Wayne L. Morse.

Man of Decision The real Wally gives the im pression he has become a man of decision and action, but, he con fesses, he was not always that way. "I went seven years to an analyst in New York," he ex plained in his soft voice. "I used to be a slovenly silversmith. Oh, I was so lazy. "I learned to assert myself. There is a difference between assertiveness and cruelty. I used to confuse the two. If you con tinually bow down before force you find yourself at a disadvan tage in all important areas in life. Why, even in social life you can let somebody bully you into coming to dinner." Peeperish Touches Now Waly is happily married and a successful TV star. In real life there still are some peeperish touches to Wally, however.
