Look AND WATCH Ges:ar:si ington and returned js a nom inee for the natiqns highest office. o While Nixon was returning from his Hawaiian campaign swing, Robert Kennedy sat down with newsmen in San Francisco. He said his broth er must win the West if he is to win the presidency in No vember. Robert Kennedy, campaign manager for the senator, and a third brother, Ted, were in San Francisco for the offi cial opening of the western John F. Kennedy headquar ters. Ted is in charge of the Western campaign. Wage Tough Fight At a press conference, Rob ert Kennedy said the Demo crats will wage a "tough and vigorous fight" in this region - beginning with a high-powered drive to register citizens who are eligible to vote but are unregistered. He said he was confident his brother would win even though Vice President Nixon "obviously starts out with an advantage" gained through GOP victories in 1952 and 1956. Elsewhere, there were these developments: Climbers: Two California climbers triumphed over the Diamond, a cliff in E s t e s Park, Colo. They reached the top of 14,256 foot Longs Peak after scaling the' pre viously unclimbed 1,000-foot sheer granite cliff on the east face of the mountain. Robert F. Kamps, 27, a school teacher from North Hollywood,, and David Rear ick, 28, a Pasadena mathema tician, reached the top of the mountain 20 minutes after completing the rugged two and a half day ascent of the Diamond. The last 250 feet to the top of the mountain was an easy hike compared to the 1,000-foot tension climb with ropes and pitons. Their conquest of the Diamond was a victory over the last unclimbed approach to a major mountain in the United States. Hoax: A San Francisco fed eral jury, split 9-3 in favor of conviction, was unable to reach a verdict in the case of Las Vegas businessman, Ar chibald Dewar, accused of a bomb hoax aboard a Trans World Airlines plane last May 23. The jury was out for more than 3V4 hours be fore it announced it could reach no decision. The gov ernment indicated it would seek a new trial. Dewar's de fense was that his remark about a bomb was a joke. Gutowski: Pole vaulter Bob Gutowski, official holder of the outdoor world record, was Instantly killed in a head on collision at Camp Pendle ton Marine base near San Di ego. One occupant of the sec ond car - a marine - also was killed. Gutowski, a ma rine first lieutenant, was alone on his way home when another car headed in the opposite direction entered the wrong lane and smashed into the track star's auto, investi gators reported. Adland: In Los Angeles, Mrs. Florence Adland waived a jury trial on charges she contributed to the delinquen cy of her teen-age daughter, insisting she was confident of acquittal. Mrs. Adland agreed to submit her case on the transcript of her preliminary hearing, which Superior Judge Lewis Drucker said he would study before ruling. Cohen: Mickey Cohen, ques. tioned in Santa Ana about an h o n orary deputy sheriff's badge allegedly issued him, declined to give any informa tion other than his name to an Orange county grand jury. Cohen cited various articles of the State Constitution and the fifth amendment of the U.S. Constituion for his re fusal. Cohen, an ex-convict, was reported to have been is sued the special badge about 15 years ago. REJECT PAYMENTS Jackson, Miss. - WD - State Reps.
