Nixon, only 14 years after his election as a Congressman from California, received the nomination of the Republican party for the Presidency of the United States. Almost immediately, Nixon announced a whirlwind sched ule of early campaigning that would take him to Nevada, California, Hawaii and Wash ington State. Nixon was scheduled to re ceive an airport reception upon his arrival in Los An geles, and was to be feted at a big rally at Whittier college In his home town of Whittier. Many of the California del egation 'o the Republican Na tional convention at Chicago indicated they would have preferred a different ice Pres . idential candidate. But Nixon (aid he wanted Henry Cabot Lodge as his running mate, so they voted unanimously to support his choice. -Intent Man The vote in favor of Lodge ai No. 2 man on the Republi ' can ticket came at meeting of the California delegation at which Herbert Hoover Jr., for mer under secretary of state, . described Lodge as "one of the most intense people I've ever known: George W. Milias, state GOP chairman, followed Hoo ver and said some California delegates had met with Lodge earlier in- the year, "and the one general reaction was that this man is perfectly caoah'e of being President of the Unit ed States." During the final night ses sion of the convention, Mayor George Christopher of San Francisco delivered one of the seconding speeches for Lodge. On the following day, Nix on and Lodge pledged an all out effort to lead the Repub lican party to victory in the November presidential . elec tion. "We'll campaign until our throats are raw," Nixon told members of the Republican National committee. "But you in the precincts will win it." The GOP standard bearers appealed for the support of party leaders in what Nixon said will be "the closest elec tion of the century in Amer ica. " Elsewhere, there were these developments: Farm labor: The U.S. Labor Department turned down a request by a California fruit growing corporation for, 300 Mexican workers because it would be "tantamount to sup plying alien strikebreakers."

Mitchell to certify Mexican workers to harvest pears at two Yuba County fruit ranches. Both ranches were picketed by the AFL- CIO Agricultural Workers Or ganizing committee. Pony express: The mail ar rived in Sacramento right on ' time, 10 days after it left St. j Joseph, Mo., on the 100th ! birthday of the Pony Express, j Ergo Alexander Majors III, great-great grandson of one of the founders and operators of the original Pony Express, handed over the mailbags to Sacramento postmaster Ken neth R. Hammaker. Eastbound riders in the centennial re run handed over their mail j bag to officials in St. Joseph 1 about the same time. Finch: Carole Tregoff's for- mer husband testified in Los ! Angeles at her murder retrial ! with Dr. R. Bernard Finch mai ne inougni nis wile had a , strictly "business relation ship" with the physician un til Mrs. Finch told him of their affair. . Construction worker James Joseph Pappa, 26, who divorced the red-haired beau ty Feb. 15, did not testify at the first trial, which ended with the jury unable to de cide whether the accused pair had murdered Mrs. Bar bara Jean Finch. Inquiry: A Naval board of inquiry in Long Beach con cluded its week-long hearing i into the collision of two de- i stroyers July 19 in foggy coastal waters that killed 11 seamen. At the board's final session a composite radar track was offered in evidence. It combined the tracks made by the combat information center crews aboard both the USSAmmen and the USS Col lett during the minutes before the Collett loomed out of the fog and slashed into the side of the Ammen. Following the formal hearings, the four man board began preparing its conclusions.
