Nixon Getting Attention From Some Republicans as Compromise Candidate Editor'! Note: The name of Richard M. Nixon is heard more and more often in spec ulation about possible dark horses for the Republican presidential nomination. In the following dispatch, UPI's chief Washington political reporter tells of his conversations with various GOP leaders about Nixon's prospects. By RAYMOND M. LAHR WASHINGTON (UPD-Rich-ard M. Nixon is emerging as a prospect for the 1964 Repub lican presidential nomination because of a widespread belief in GOP ranks that Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York cannot win it. Rockefeller still could surprise the Republican professionals and stay alive by winning one or more key presidential primary contests next year against Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona. If he fails, many Republicans expect Nixon to become the man behind whom anti-Gold-water sentiment can unite. "Those who want someone less conservative than Gold water are looking at Nixon," UPI was told by one party leader who maintains contact with the former vice president. Nixon Not Eager "My impression is that he is not eager to get into it, but he's aware that he can be shoved into it if a stalemate develops." Other Republicans suspect that Nixon is eager for a return match with President Kennedy despite his defeat in 1960 and his poor showing against Gov. Edmund G. (Pat) Brown in California last year. This evokes a logical question from Goldwater partisans: "Why should anyone think he can beat Kennedy now if he couldn't even beat that fellow Brown in California?" Conservatism A Handicap The answer is that there are Republicans who believe that Goldwater's brand of conserva tism is too strong to win a na tional election or lead their state tickets to victory. Regardless of whether they like Rockefeller's brand of Re publicanism, they fear that the New Yorker is carying on a hopeless quest. Since his remar Some of Seems like folks think "Oly" is quicker to say. Has a friendlier feel to it. Any way, we want you to know that we like being on such good terms with people who know a refreshing light beer when they taste it. Even though we stick to the full name, Olympia, on our labels and things, we hope you'll keep right on calling for an "Oly" whenever the notion strikes . . . you're sure of getting a beer of distinctive character and quality. The difference is pure and simple: One ingredient it priceless: " the Water' Vinton art aluayl Hcltomr riage last May, public opinion polls have put Rockefeller in a long-shot role behind the pace setting Goldwater. Meantime the Goldwater op position sees no chance to devel op an effective challenge while Rockefeller is the only active competitor against the Arizona senator. "As long as he stays in, he's just handing it to Goldwater," said one party leader. Doubts About Rocky Another doubted that Rocke feller is so much opposed to Goldwater that he would throw his weight behind another candi date. Rockefeller agents have spread assurances that the gov ernoralthough unannounced is in the pre-convention battle to the end. By this they say they mean from the New Hamp shire primary March 10 to the California primary June 2. Some Republicans believe he will carry the fight right up to the convention in July. Others expect him to throw in the towel DENNIS THE MENACE 'TAKE MJURTIME.DONT FALL MR yJf i f $jf I t- -mm. V J f 4 our best friends are name at Ike Olympia Btnint Company, Tumualti, war Olympia.

Nixon has been getting atten tion as a possible compromise candidate since he began speak out on national issues, break ing the long silence he main tained after his defeat for the California governorship. . Strategic Position He also is in a strategic posi tion. Goldwater opponents could rally around him at a relatively late date because he already has national stature and would not need the buildup necessary for a more obscure figure. In this connection, some prom inent Republicans believe Nixon could not make an open bid for the nomination in advance of the convention. There are still Republican professionals bitter about his conduct of the 1960 campaign, that might turn on him if he became an avowed contender. But some Republicans expect this bitterness to evaporate by convention time. Others believe however, that it will persist and THE FIRST UGLY FACE YA SEE' MEDFORD MAIL prevent Nixon from ever getting serious consideration for the 1964 nomination. $25,000 Awarded To Medford Woman A Jackson County Circuit Court jury has awarded $25,000 to Mrs. Joyce Rusho, 22 Cottage St., Medford, as a result of a suit she brought over the acci dental death of her husband. Mrs. Rusho sought the $25,000 from Warren Dale Miller and Jack Calvin Brownlee, Eugene truck drivers, whom she charged were negligent when her husband's car ran into then wrecked truck north of Talent Nov. 22, 1962. Her husband was critically in jured and died later. The car struck the jackknifed trailer which was across the outside south - bound lane and one third across the inside lane. Miller and Brownlee contend ed that Rusho was driving faster than the road conditions allow ed, did not keep his car under control and failed to stop when he saw the truck. The verdict was returned late Friday at the conclusion of a three-day trial.

When we were first married I was working on commission and, my income be ing uncertain, we agreed that Ella should hold on to her job until my financial status was definite.

Ella Z. I was honest with Jerry. He knew I hated house work to the extent that I even held two jobs for a while in order to afford a maid. I'm sure I didn't agree to stop going to work when his income rose. I said I'd be free then to look for a more desirable position. Employed or not, I wouldn't stay home anyway.

Next Best Thing Some of them appear to re gard a beaker of booze as the next best thing to a phial of penicillin. "Moderate use of beverage alcohol improves the amplitude and force of the heart, the mass movement of the blood' the output of the heart and the efficiency of the circulation," one medico commented. Another noted that "when ni trates are not available, an ounce or two of whisky or wine may give quite rapid relief for angina pectora." A nip or two before a meal "stimulates gastric, pancreatic and intestinal juices," said a third. Hooch also was credited with improving digestion, reducing tensions and promoting sleep. It likewise was represented as having beneficial effects in cas es of arthritis, gout, diabetes, old age and the common cold. Drinkers Live Longer A test carried out by a bio logist was said to have indicat ed that moderate drinkers live longer than teetotalers. Press releases are not al ways the last word in scientific accuracy, but this one certain ly gave me a new perspective of fermented mash. Being eager to observe its curative properties under clini cal conditions. I repaired to the health bar at the National Press Club for laboratorial study. It was amazing to see so many health-seeking journalists lined up in the taproom to re ceive shots. Some were getting shots of bourbon; others shots of scotch. I talked with one patient who was improving his circulation with a martini. His circulation was so good it even showed in his eyeballs.
