Those who know him best call
him a deadly serious perfection
1st who drives himself and his
aides to the limit.

reation period. Four children were
killed and a number of others in
jured. The crane was being erected
in a workyard next door to the
kindergarten when it fell.
The metal monster smashed the
wall surrounding the playground
and sledge - hammered into a
group of playing children.
Workman Italo Florida, 45, was
sitting in the cab of the crane
when it fell. He was hurled into
the playground and seriously in
jured.
The dead children were not im
mediately identified. About 150
children between the ages of 4
and 6 regularly attend the school.
About 120 of the children were
in the playground at the time of
the accident. A number of them
were washing their hands and
faces at a line of basins under
the supervision of two women
teachers.
Suddenly one of the teachers
looked up and screamed as she
caught sight of the long arm of
the crane plunging down into the
playground.
The four dead children were
crushed into the ground by the
weight ot the falling metal. The
uninjured survivors scattered
screaming in all directions.

to Davis' 214,000.
But Davis pulled a tactical coup
at the outset of tho runoff cam
paign, quickly adopting a strong
segregation plank.
Both candidates had soft ped

first primary. But the issue sud
denly loomed large when State
Sen. William M. Rainach, leader
of the staunch segregationists, fin
ished a surprising third with 143,

Morrison and Davis cagily bar
gained for his endorsement. Davis
offered to sponsor a state sover
eignty commission with Rainach
as head. Morrison offered Rain-
ach's campaign manager, nep.
John Garrett, the important post
of House speaker.
Morrison blunted the setback by
picking up the support of the
fourth and fifth candidates State
Comptroller William Dodd and for
mer Gov. James A. Noe, Long's
running mate.
The campaign has grown in the
crucial last weeks into a bitter
struggle.
Davis accused Morrison of hav
