NEW YORK —(AP)— Things a

It is even more important for
older workers than young work
ers to avoid a sloppy look . . . Pol
icyholders showed only 24 per

65. Some 39 per cent wanted to
keep their present jobs, and 37
per cent wanted to slow down a

Boxing has been under inter
mittent public attack ever since
the days when the Romans pum
meled each other to death in the
arena . . . But it is still big busi
n2ss . . . Some 215,000 men en
gaged in prize fights in 1951, of
whom 24.365 were professionals
. .. There were four deaths, but
only one was in a professional
bout ~ . . Boxing gloves were
frist used in modern times in a
bout in Paris in 1818 ~ .an
Englishman won . . . This is not
so strange, however . . . His op
prnent was English, too.
~ Racing is known as “the sport
P4st Kings,” but do you know what
King actually ran a footrace with
a horse? . . . It was Thomas Jef
ferson’s old foe, George the Third
of England . . . He became a little
balmy upstairs after losing Amer
ica . . . You know, of course, why
some saints are pictured with
square instead of round halos?
. .. The square halo indicates the
saint was still alive when th 2
portrait was made . . .

sp2ak loudly enough to be heard
by 20,000 people . . . Actor David

oratorical power was so great he

Cross-eyed and near-sighted chil

has found color-blindness is five
times as common among boys as

grow up and buy those Christmas

Naturally you've been wonder
ing for years how fast a gals ball
spins . . . The answer is 3,000 to
5,000 revolutions per minute—if
you hit it well , . . A high-lofted

A poll of 170,000 defense plant

Mosquitoes will soon be out
again . . . You may be depressed
to know that instead of about 400
varieties known 50 years ago
science now figures there are be

Here's a new way to fight them—
Carry a warm billiard ball around

MINNESOTA’S STASSEN: Ike's national leaders think the former
Minnesota governor, shown here in a pre-primary visit to an ice

Eager Amateurs Fumble Eisenhower
Chances Of Winning Nomination
In Coming Presidential Campaign
By BRUCE BIOSSAT
NEA Staff Correspondent
MINNEAPOLIS — (NEA) —
Eager but inept political amateurs,
fumbling against their profession
al opposition, are writing a story
of puzzlement, defeat and disap
pointment in their campaign to
make Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower
the Republican candidate for
President.
All over the country, the ama
teurs seem to be hurting rather
than helping the general’s chance
—and the fact that the amateurs,
unlike their opponents, do not
have a candidate they can ex
hibit in person appears to be fur
ther confusing their efforts.
For a closeup of this picture of
frustration you need only to focus
on Minnesota, where the collapse
of efforts to build a real organi
zation for Ike left an unhappy
legacy of wasted effort. It de
prived his backers of a good
chance to nail down a sizeable
core of delegates and from dem
onstrating in an impertant mid
western state that the general
has the popular appeal claimed
for him.
I The night after Eisenhower's
name was ruled off the Minne
sota presidential primary ballot,
about 30 angry supporters be
signed his Minneapolis head
| quarters and poured their frus
trated energies into projects pro
moting the general’s candidacy.
* * *
But nothing they did or could
do would likely help much in
getting Ike the Republician nom
ination at Chicago in July. They
could only look ahead to aiding
him to win the election in the
’event he becomes the GOP nom
inee,
And they weren’t sure how best
to prepare for that prospect.
“We'll think of something,” said
young Bill Holbrook, manager of
the headquarters. But you could
sense there and everywhere in
Eisenhower circles the feeling of

IKE'S MINTENER: He was
afraid of losing control.
disappointment,
From the start this was a tale
of eager Eisenhower forces al
ternately doing nothing or trip
ping over their own feet. When
they at length entered a slate of
delegates for the general, it was
not with the postive attitude of
men who believe they are cham
pioning the candidate of all can
didates. It-was a mnegative act,
to head off splinter groups alleg
edly bent on selfishly exploiting
Eisenhower’s popularity,
A day before Minnesota's Eis
enhower organization collapsed
in ignominy, one veteran political
expert called it “pitifully inept.”

THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
Another labeled it ‘“nebulous.”
The consensus of seasoned on
lookers was that was a frail
skelton incapable of supporting
a genuine campaign drive,
It has thereby wiped out their
hopes that Minnesota might in
fluence other midwestern states
like lowa, Illinois and Indiana to
pay more official heed to the gen
eral’s candidacy. And it has, of
course, weakened the national ef
fort to establish that “clear call
to duty” to which alone the gen
eral said he would respond.
National leaders in the Eisen
hower camp do not see it this
way. They hailed the Minnesota
court ruling happily as “getting
them off the hook.” For the Eisen
hower campaign in this state did
not have the blessing of the gen
eral’s key spokesmen.
Their view is that Harold E.
Stassen, former Minnesota gov
ernor and now president of the
University of Pennsylvania,
should be conceded his home
state’s 28 delegates in the favor
ite son tradition.
They believe it was wrong to
stir “needless antagonisms” by
challenging Stassen. They are
convinced he is basically for
Eisenhower, remembering his es
pousal of the general at an earl
ier time,
Furthermore, there is evidence
that possibly half the Stassen
delegates choices would rate
Eisenhower their second pick. The
national leaders actually expect
to capture them all in the likely
event Stassen’s national candi
dacy makes little headway.
Perhaps this conflict between
national Eisenhower leaders and
the Minnesota group lay at the
root of this sad ecase history. The
Minnesotans never got up steam.
k 3 * »
Last Fall, fresh from a visit to
Eisenhower in France, Bradshaw
Mintener, general counsel of
Pillsbury Mills, set up an Eisen
hower Committee. The bare bones
of a state organization were put
together, yet little was done until
January.
With Ike rated a candidate after
rings began. Mintener quckly

Lodge, the general's campaign
manager, disapproved entry of a
slate in the March 18 primary.
“But we heard rumors that cer
tain factions were planning to
capitalize on Eisehower’s popu
larity by putting in slates for
him,” Mintener says. “We were
worried that we might lose con
trol of the situation, So we pre
pared an emergency set of peti
tions ourselves, and got up a slate,
just in case.”
Mintener explained the situa
tion to Lodge and others but was
istip advised to keep “Ike out of
it.
Nevertheless, worried men
aligned with Mintener insisted on
filing an Eisenhowers slate Feb. 1.
Their haste was their undoing.
Filing petitions in one area were
not sworn to as “a required by law.
They called it “a calculated risk.”

gretted the Minnesota filing.
Then the last blow fell. A St.
Paul lawyer named James Feasch,
styling himself friendly to Eisen
hower, asked the state high court
to strike his name from the bal
lot on the ground it was illegally
filed and was doing the general
' more harm than good.
' Eisenhower people said they’'d
‘never heard of Fetsch, and called
the move a Stassen plot. But the
court wasn't interested~ in Fetsch,
It took one look at the faulty pe
titions and threw them out.
Said one downcast Minnesotan:
“The big fellows in Washington
were glad about it, but I don’t
see why. How many ‘happy so
