That was an interesting contest Just to see how a "straight" young man would come out against the leil-wine and Hollywood influence that was represented by Mrs. Douglas in our neighboring, some times screwball, state. (He did all right.) Interest was added to the name, Nixon, when Mac Enley, the for mer Herald and News man. made his first return visit here from Southern California. Mac. then Just getting going on the Long Beach Press-Telegram, was assigned to politics. With characteristic Epley vigor, he had plunged Into the study and report ing of same, and so was in close touch with Nixon. Mac was strong for the man. Said Nixon was better man than War rensmart, honest, "had It." Since then, ol course, we've read of his activities in the Senate, fer reting out Communists and break ing open the Alger Hiss case. Mac, who was one of the 3600 members of the press covering the Republican convention in, Chicago, should be Jubilant that his fair haired California!! was named to team with Dee. .

During the night a porker invaded cams, chewed up Jerry's shoes. and in turn was dispatched bv Reddard with .21 and a flashlight. Next day the oorker was skinned and dressed i looked like a large dressed rabbit) and put in the pot over the camplire. Cooked with savory gait and onions for five or six hours, he made a feast for the crew Thev all pronounced It delicious the flavor a cross between beef ana tamo. Thanks to Gene we had a sample of the leftovers, cold. Add a slight touch of the flavor of rabbit to the beef-lamb blend and you have our pronouncement. Somebody always horns In to spoil the fun. Ken Mcleod, the naturalist, says that if we campaign to kill off all the PorcuDlnes. to keep them from eating up the reproduction pine in the Basin, then the forestry people will have to send men into the woods to thin out the thickets so that the remaining trees will grow into merchantable timber quicker. Question is: Has the balance of nature been upset bv killing oft the natural enemies of the porkles so that they're eating up our tim ber or would killing 'em off uoeet the balance of nature so that voung stands of pine trees would have to be thinned by hand. Take your choice but we recom mend that at the next opportunity vou slay, dress and cook a porcu pine, and then report the spot to Duncan Hlnes. Ike was the great organizer, the great welder of unity in the most polyglot force ever assembled. Be worked out much of the cru cial strategy. He made many of the agonizingly important de cisions. And he did this with a smiling grace and humility that won many grateful friends at the front and at home. He proved, as Winston Churchill said, he was "no glory-hopper." It was never "Eisenhower's Head- Quarters" in the datelines of the dispatches. Only. "Allied Head quarters." He took Jlttle credit in victory but stood ready to take the raps in defeat. While Allied troops were storm ing Omaha Beach, he dictated this statement, which he never had to use: "Our landings in the Cherbourg Havre area have failed in train satisfactory foothold and I have wiinarawn tne troops. My decision to attack at this time and place was based upon the best informa tion available. The troops, the air, and the Navy did all that hraverv and devotion to duty could do. If any blame or fault attaches to the attempt, it is mine' alone." Although a million light years separated their rank, the GI fre quently felt he had a real friend in his supreme commander. Just oeiore tne big push across the Rhine, the five-star general fell in step with a young nnfantryman. How are you feeling, son?" the general asked. "Sir. I'm awful nervous," the boy said. "I was wounded two months ago and Just got back from the hospital yesterday. I don't feel no good!" Well," said Ike, "you and I are a good pair then, because I'm nervous, too. But we've planned this attack for a long time and we ve got all the planes, the guns. and airborne troops we can use to smash the Germans. Mavh if Just walk along together to the river we'll be good for each other." Ana tney were. This, of course, was the com mon touch so important to good generals and political candidates. But more important in the liber ation of Europe was Eisenhower's talent for making Americans. Bri tish, French, Poles, Greeks. Can adians. Norwegians. Australians. New Zealanders. Italians and South Africans fight togehter. Added to this were the Jealousies of individual air forces, ground forces, naval forces. Somehow Ike Dulled them all to- gether more truly united than thev ever had been before." Elsenhower could ioke about a lot of things but not where the precious unity ol his command was involved. It was legend around his head- quarters, in London, Algiers or Paris, that he could forgive you for calling s fellow officer an SOB."

Get Sou's Plik ladayl They'll Do Irgvcry In GRArJowA's utiynAy SrIE COULD BAKE BREAD, COFFEE OAXt. PIES AHO COOKIES IN MO-TlME ON HER OLD WOOD-BUKNINQ A gentleman by the name of Cameron Shipp, writing In the cur rent issue of a popular pocket-size magazine (Reader's Digest) has come out unequivocally in favor of letter-writing, preferably on post cards. At the same time, he has lashed out vigorously at the tra ditional, hackneyed forms and phrases used in the business and personal letter. Mr. Shipp's article promised to fill a need in my life. It held out the promise of turning what is to me an onerous chore Into a de lightfully gay litle game of com munications, approached with Joy, wit, humor and anticipation. After being impressed with Mr. Shipp's general attitude on the subject. I followed his seven rules to the let ter, and I feel strongly he's let me down. In the first place. Mr. Shipp told about a fun-loving, letter-writing friend who scrawled a brief note to him on the back of a bank statement. After reading the note, which merely indicated the friend was alive and well, the Shipp fam ily spent an evening trying to figure out how much the writer made and how he spent his money. Later, the same fellow dropped him a line on the back of a letter from an editor accepting a story the letter writer had written. I have a backlog of letters, most ly yellowing with age, from people to whom I owe letters, ine martea reluctance with which I approach letter-writing had rather simplified my. own problem, becuse my de termined postal silence has dis couraged unilateral correspondence. At any rate, I picked out a cou ple of people I'd like to hear from, and then I went through a batch of recent communications, looking for something titillating to use the back of it to write something on a nice sentence if you understand it. My bank statement was elimi nated immediately, for the simple reason that the bank and I have been engaged for the past three years in trying to find a sum in the amount of J17.95 which we lost in the bookkeeping. I save bank statements against the day I find proof the bank is wrong, not me. There was my monthly electricity and gas bill, but the company It self writes all over it. No room for a message there. There was a snappy little number about "We are sure that through some over sight you have neglected to pay . ." but I decided that would give some person I hadn't seen for a couple of years a bad impression. There was a doctor's prescription for co deine, but it wouldn't give anyone a lift because you know how doc tors write and my correspondent might think I was suffering from something terrible. My best possi bility was a printed offer for an extra box of soap chips for one cent if I present the coupon at my grocery store, and I decided not to part with it on grounds it wasn't good for much of a laugh and I might want to use it. ' Mr. Shipp advocated brief notes on post-cards, promising that It would take only a minute to whip one out. I found I had only one cent postcards. I couldn't find my typewriter and then found it need ed a new ribbon. After a half-hour, I gave up the post card project.

Time -"TJby Jimmy llatlo M(?c TAKES ALL SWL" cwm ABC's WASHINGTON HI Since the Republicans provided our first coast-to-coast televised convention. they were guinea pigs for the Democrats who had a team of mistake-finders glued to TV screens in Chicago, taking notes. So at least In a technical way for Instance, camera shots of the speakers televising of the Demo cratic convention which opens next Monday should be a little smoother than the Republican. But In a technical way only. Conventions have followed the same pattern for generations some parts serious, some boring. some old fashioned, and some lull of hokum and fantasy and the politicians who run them cling to tradition like a hungry man to a Jug of Jam. For this reason it would be ask ing too much of either party to make radical changes this year Just because for the first time the nation had a TV box-seat and an opportunity to see politicians Per form, some times at their worst. The starting time is a good ex ample of convention habits. The delegates themselves don't take the chairman seriously when he savs the next session will begin at 11:30 a.m. or 8, P.m. They know from experience it will be later. So they arrive later. And no matter how many ses sions in a convention, each must have Identical preliminaries which consume another half-hour before the delegates can get down to bus iness: A band plays the Star Spangled Banner, the delegates there's no reason to start letters with the ubiquitous "dear." I tried out a few other salutations, how ever, and I can't find a better one. I essayed "Ml" and "Hello." I tried starting with a stark. "John" and also with no salutation at all. "Dear" doesn't mean dear, but It does provide a comfortable handle. The traditional closings are com fortable, too. These other things sound smarty and unnatural. Mostly, however, I'd like to tell Mr. Shipp that there's no painless way to write a letter if you don't like to write letters In the first place. Mr. Shipp must face the tact that there are some people who don't like to write letters. Just as there are some people who don't like beets. And those of us who don't like tp write must Just steel ourselves to the penalty of not re ceiving letters, either.

Of course, if Senator Locuslocus ever slipped and started his speech with So-snd So's name, he'd never finish it. thus losing 15 minutes of talking time, because the mob on the floor would think tne name was the signal to start the hoopla, being more Interested In the sig nal than In the speech.

JOItliAN Some time ago llila column pub lished a brief discussion of snor ing and suggested Hint readers who had any suggestions might write In their experiences. Several did. U.D.M. writes: "Tape across my mouth from side to side and extending an Inch or two beyond each corner keeps my mouth cloned all night, and. I am told, has changed the loudest snurrr In this part of the country into a reasonably quiet sleeper. CHS. refers to a method for rorrrctlng this Iroublo by having the patient clone his mouth before going to bed and pasting a piece of court-plaster over Ills mouth, about a quarter Inch wide and an Inch lone. Tills he says, has to be continued for about a moiiih. A lady writes that her husband was a snorer until she persuaded him to sleep without a pillow, which apparently solved the problem. Another reader says her husband was one ot the noisiest snorera ever until she Induced him to use two pillows. Now, she writes, "he la so quiet at night, I ullen listen to make sure he Is still breathing." Another correspondent, K.T., also said two pillows slopped his snor ing. Finally, a lady who shall be nameless writes: "My husband was a chroiilo disturber of my nightly peace by reason of his len. torian snoring. By multiplying and disposing his pillows under his head and shoulders his position ; while sleeping was changed. Thereafter he ceased to snore. "Tills may not be a cur. of any thing, but Is related because It Indi cates Uiat snoring may be due to faulty posture of the eleeper. Bala. Ing the head and shoulders by add ing pillows may help but lew. but each one should experiment In the matter of tho sleeping posture."
