Newspaper Page TextMONDAY, NOVEMBER 7, I960 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE. A 3 By CHILES COLEMAN Atlanta - (UPD - The election outlook In 12 Southern states which have a total of 138 electoral votes: Virginia - (12 electoral votes): Most experts call it tor Nixon but it may be very close. Democrats are counting on Friday's visit by Kennedy to help, but privately are wor ried over the silent voters and the imponderable relig ious question. Nixon- Lodge Democrats have been carry ing the campaign bill, citing Nixon as "more conservative" than Kennedy and the Dem ocratic platform. Sen Harry T. Byrd, key Democratic lead er, silent campaign-long. North Carolina - (14 elec toral votes): Neutral political observers still class North Carolina as doubtful. On basis of past experience, Kennedy would be favored, since the state had gone Democratic in presidential elections since 1928. The doubtful lag this time stems from the closeness of the 1956 race, dislike of the national Democratic platform, a more active and vocal Re publican effort this year, an i n t angible groundswell of GOP strength that may or may not materialize in the presidential column. A stren uous Democratic campaign at the state-office level may help Kennedy. South Carolina - (8 elec toral votes): Most experts now think Nixon will give GOP its first presidential victory in South Carolina since recon struction but all say it will be very, very close, and the Democratic tradition alone may be enough to swing it for Kennedy. Gov. Ernest Hol lings, Sen. Olin Johnston and Kep. Robert Hemphill are the only elected Democratic of ficials actively campaigning for Kennedy. Sen. Strom Thurmond and five Demo cratic congressmen have kept hands off. Former Governor and U.S. Secretary of States James F. Byrnes is campaign ing for Nixon. Georgia - 12 electoral votes): Charges of alleged in terference by Kennedy in con nection with the arrest and imprisonment of integration leader the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. have hurt the Dem ocrats, as admitted by Gov. Ernest Vandiver. Nearly ev eryone believes the Democrats will still carry the stale but perhaps by not as large a ma jority as previously forecast. Georgia electors are unpledg ed by law. Seven of the 12 say they will vote for Kennedy-Johnson; the other five may or may not. Florida - (10 electoral votes): The presidential race is considered neck-and-neck. Nixon is still given a slight edge privately by poll experts. Democratic Gov. Nominee Farris Bryant says he believes the two candidates are less than 1,000 votes apart. GOP state chairman G. H. Alex ander says Florida is safe for Nixon; Kennedy state man ager Fred Dickinson says Kennedy-Johnson will carry Florida by 50,000 votes or more. Most of the state's big city dailies have endorsed Nixon. Alabama - (11 electoral votes): Alabama is expected to remain faithful td the Dem ocratic party but most politi cal forecasters believe t h e vote will be the closest in the state's history. The big issue is religion. Metropolitan area - Birmingham, Mont gomery, Mobile - voted Re- Doll Wardrobe FOR DOLL U"-22" TALL J I 1 It's sew-easy to turn fabric scraps into a dream wardrobe for her favorite doll.

Pool Winner Seeks Tolerant Husband Barnet, England - (UPD -Mrs. Jean Corbette, a 35-year-old widow, is looking for a husband - and she is not ashamed to admit it. "I'm not fussy what he looks like as long as he's not bald or heavy," she said. "If he knows how to have a good time, and if he can put up with my three children - he's mine." Mrs. Corbette, who even owns a house, listed these oth er attributes: "I love going out, having fun and gambling. But I don't say my husband will have an easy time. I don't like housework very much." Mrs. Corbette has one oth er good feature - she won $92,800 in a football pool last week. 'It Could Be You' Star Resting Well Los Angeles (UPC Bill Leyden, star of the "It Could Be You" NBC TV show, was reported resting comfortably today at the Cedars of Leb anon hospital where he was undergoing treatment for a shotgun wound suffered in a hunting accident. Leyden was struck by pel lets in the arm and chest Sat urday when a hunter in an other parly fired a shotgun as the victim walked in an irrigation ditch near Rich field, Utah. He was given emergency treatment at Rich field and then flown here. . jtttetrtge STBAISHI KtHIUCHYBOURIOH WHISHElf.S YSS.OLO 86 Piool OAncitnt Aje Dilt. Co., Frinkfort. Ky.

Kennedy Narrowly Favored To Capture Majority of Southern States Tossup Expected In Some Areas; No Runaway Seen publican in 1952 and 1956 but the rural vote kept Alabama Democratic. This time, prog nosticators say, the influence of Protestant churches on the rural vote will be felt. If the Democrats win, only five of the Alabama electors are pledged to support the Ken nedy - Johnson ticket. Other six are states righters pledged not to vote for a candidate repugnant to the South. Mississippi - (8 electoral votes): Racial segregation is the big issue in the minds of most Mississippians. Since neither party sees eye-to-eye with them on this, a slate of unpledged electors Is on the ballot under a plan supported by Gov. Ross Barnett. It is expected to fare well, al though Sen. James Eastland and most other political vet erans are remaining in the Democratic ranks. Republi cans have made an all-out campaign to expect more GOP votes than ever before in Mississippi. A close three-way race is almost certain. Tennessee - (11 electoral votes): Democrats have gone all out to put Tennessee back in the party column after two consecutive defeats in presi dential elections. But most ex perts rate the state a tossup, mainly because of uncertain ty as to the effect of the re ligious issue. Street polls by newspapers and radio sta tions have shown Kennedy leading on some spots, Nixon in others. Texai - (24 electoral votes): Another tossup. One state wide poll shows Nixon lead ing, another gives the nod to Kennedy. Most observers think a last-minute swing by Kennedy and native son Lyn don Johnson would carry Tex as for the Democrats. Demo crats appear to be running best in the rural areas, but Dallas is expected to go Re publican. Arkansas - (8 electoral votes): Politicians generally agree Arkansas will go for Kennedy, continuing its tra ditional Democratic vote. Heavy registration in north west Arkansas indicates a hearty Republican turnout. Other influencing factors: Re fusal of Gov. Orval Faubus to endorse the national Dem ocratic platform, his luke warm endorsement of the na tional ticket, his repeated em phasis that voters have a choice of voting Democratic, Republican or for unpledged national states rights electors. Louisiana - (10 electoral votes): A special legislative session, convened Friday by Gov. Jimmie H. Davis in an effort to avoid integration of New Orleans schools Nov, 14, threatened the lead most ex perts believed the Demo crats had. Late September es timates gave the Democrats about half the vote, Nixon less than 30 per cent, and a state's rights slate the rest. Devel opments at the special session, where states righters were in command, may sway enough voters at the last minute to change the picture material ly. Kentucky - (10 electoral votes): Most experts agree with the Louisville Courier Journal analysis of last Sun day, which gave Kennedy and Nixon one safe district each and three "leaning" districts each with a slight overall edge to Nixon. Experts feel Kennedy has been hurt in Kentucky by the religious is sue, and by what appears to be a lack of drive and direc tion in state Democratic headquarters. Republican Sen. John Sherman Cooper con sidered safe for reelection. SCANNELL ABLE HONEST COURTEOUS DISTRICT ATTORNEY Scannell lor Dlst. Atty. Comm., Mary Margaret Mullen, Sec, Campbell Rd., Medford, Ore.
