Nunn shoots barbs
at Fletcher Thompson
ATLANTA (UPI) — Democra
tic U. S. Senate nominee Sam
Nunn, aching for a vacation af
ter fighting his way to the top
in the 15 man battle-for his
party’s nomination, paused to
day to throw a few barbs at his
Republican opponent Rep.
Fletcher Thompson.
Nunn refuted statements by
Thompson that he should be
elected because he could work
more closely with the White
House.
“The office of a U. S. Senator
certainly transcends any four
year presidential term,” said
Nunn, who announced he will
soon go to Washington to confer
with members of Georgia’s con
gressional delegation.
Thompson, meanwhile, has
labeled himself the underdog.
Obviously hinting that Nunn is
the black man’s candidate,
Thompson said, “There are
more black votes in Georgia
McGovern breaks tradition;
won’t open drive in Detroit
WASHINGTON
George S. McGovern has
decided against opening his
campaign in Detroit on Labor
Day, breaking a tradition of
Democratic presidential candi
dates including John F. Kenne
dy and Lyndon B. Johnson,
McGovern will turn instead to
the Southern Governors Confer
ence.
He will address the governors
Sunday at Hilton Head, S.C.,
and spend much of Labor Day
travelling between rallies in
Barberton and Chippewa Lake,

THANKS!
I sincerely appreciate the B V*
confidence that you, the
people of Spalding County
have entrusted in me.
I pledge that I will make
every effort to justify your HH M
confidence and trust, and
ask for your recommendations and suggestions. I want
to be the public servant of all of the people of Griffin
and Spalding County.
I ask for your continued support and your vote in the
forthcoming general election.

than ever. Like it or not,
I think I woke up this morning
the underdog in this race."
The 47-year -old three term
congressman said the battle
would be a “hard race.”
He reiterated his theme that
he would be in a better place
to help Georgia because he is a
Republican.
“I think it would be more to
the interest of the people in
Georgia to have someone in
Congress who can work better
with the Nixon administration,”
said Thompson.
Nunn spent Wednesday meet
ing with Gov. Jimmy Carter
and other state leaders in an
effort to further widen his all
encompassing election coalition.
The33-year-oldlawyer-farmer
from Perry swept to victory
over incumbent Sen. David
Gambrell with an most unor
thodox array of Democrats—
ranging from Rep. Julian Bond
Ohio, and Alameda, Calif.
There had been speculation in
Detroit that McGovern would
not appear in Cadillac Square
for a rally with rank-and-file
workers.
Observers noted that Mc-
Govern had run poorly in the
May 15 Democratic primary (27
per cent to 51 per cent for
Alabama Gov. George C.
Wallace) and that he had been
reluctant to discuss busing, the
chief issue in Michigan.
Michigan political and labor
leaders are saying that Pres-
Lion Country Safari. Spokesman for the tourist attraction
said the new integration, which includes the elephants,
seems to be working out alright. (UPI)
to former Gov. Marvin Griffin
—behind him.
Gambrell, though obviously
stung by the campaign fight,
threw his support to Nunn in
conceding defeat.
Carter also endorsed Nunn
and offered to campaign for
him any way the nominee want
ed ; however, he suggested Nunn
continue “an independent cam
paign — that’s the best.”
Lt. Gov. Lester Maddox, who
gave last minute support to
Nunn in the runoff, has said he
will be neutral in the general
election, but his friendship for
Nunn is well known.
“Georgia voters are going to
be electing a man to serve six
years in the Senate,” Nunn said
at a Capitol news conference. “I
don’t believe they will elect a
Republican just because there
is a Republican administration
in office at the time.”
ident Nixon will win the state
for the first time after losing to
Kennedy in 1960 and to Hubert
H. Humphrey in 1968.
After the California rally,
McGovern will fly to Seattle for
the night. He will swing through
Washington, Oregon and Cali
fornia Tuesday, then stump for
10 more days across the nation
in an effort to reverse his
continuing decline in public
opinion polls.
Nixon has expanded a lead of
26 percentage points to an
advantage of more than 30 in
the latest polls by Gallup and
Sindlinger.
McGovern returned Wednes
day from New York where in 30
hours he unveiled modified
welfare and tax programs on
Wall Street and courted the
Jewish vote in the garment
district and before the New
York Board of Rabbis.
McGovern also suggested that
President Nguyen Van Thieu be
offered asylum in the United
States when the Vietnam war
ends.
