10 B WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 22, 1362 MEDFOHD MAIL THIBUNE, MEDFOHD. OREGON Bellinger To Try Again Tonight for Elector Signatures Albany (UPD A sleepless vigil is being held thia week In Albany waiting for elec tors. The vigil, which started Saturday afternoon, might end at 8 o'clock tonight with the nomination of Donald F. Bellinger as an independent conservative candidate for governor. Or it might not. Bellinger, who describes himself as an opponent of fed eral spending, is not sure whether he will have the re quired number of 250 elec tors tonight. But he's hoping. The marathon "assembly of electors" started Saturday and sponsors were not able at that time to muster up the magic 250 names to put Bell inger's name on the Novem ber Oregon ballot. Confusion Possibl At that time, it was an nounced that some confusion about the date of the as sembly might have been caused by an erroneous news broadcast by Willamette Val ley radio stations. The assembly was held over until Sunday afternoon after an all-night stay in the hall to keep proceedings leg al, but again there weren't enough names submitted. Then, it was announced that the final caucus in what Bellinger describes as possi ibly the longest nominating convention in the state's his tory, would be at 8 o'clock tonight. Someone has manned the post at the Albany American Legion hall, convention head quarters, ever since Satur day to keep the proceedings in continuous session as re quired by law. "Oregon elections clerk Jack Thompson said we can recess and continue to regis ter," Bellinger said, "and call a caucus tonight. It is necessary for those 'who pre viously registered (o appear and an oral poll of delegates will be made." Advocate Amendment Bellinger advocates the so called "Liberty Amendment" which of all to the Constitution calls for withdrawal non-profit government corpo- J rations, w'lich, he says, are costing American taxpayers S19 billion per year. He is Salem contractor. He announced today: uue to an erroneous re- lease, by persons unauthor ized, the Saturday meeting was disrupted: A further un authorized release which stated the meeting would be on Sunday prior lo the sembly officials actually!! making a decision caused 1 further confusion." Bellinger said he aaam challenges Gov. Mark Hat field and Atty. Gen. Robert : Y. Thornton to come before the people of Oregon to ex plain the legal relationship of the stale of Oregon In the ; council of state govern ments.'
