PAGE TWSJLVE Battle of Words Goes On and On THE RECORD.ARGUS DUFF WH LING TO RISK POLITICAL OBLIVION TO DEFEAT RIVAL CAMP By L. U. Harrtaburg, March up) Gov. James H. Duff staked his fwlitlcal future today on his fight with the Grundy wing of the Republican party of Pennsylvania at the May 16 primary.

But U. S. Rep. John C. Kunkel, Duff's opponent for the GOP nomination for tr.

S. senator, said the executive Is "shadow boxing, with his self-created straw man." The addressing county leaders favoring his candidacy at nearby Hershcy Saturday, said that unless Republican voters "repudiate-Gruhdy-Owlettism, I am very confident that the people will repudiate our party in November." "II It is necessary for me to be wiped out as a. political figure In Pennsylvania," Duff aald, "I am willing to be wiped out, If in LESLIE doing so I can prevent the domination of our party by selfish, self- serving group, one of the most reactionary in the Republican party anywhere in America." Duff, running on a primary ticket headed by himself and John S. Fine for governor, filled another place on the Duff-Fine ticket by appointing John C. Bell, Philadelphia, to the stale supreme court.

Bell, who served 20 days governor between the end of the Martin administration and the start of the Duff administration, was endorsed for a full 21-yoar Lerm of the $23,000 post by the Duff followers at the Hershey meeting.

Duff, fn his speech, attacked Kunkel as "the Charlie McCarthy of the Orundy-Owlett setup" but did not mention Jay Cooke, who running against Fine for the gubernatorial nomination. Cooke, while supported by the Grttndy p-oup, has insisted his candidacy Is not tied In with any faction of the party.

Kunkcl's reaction to Duff's speech Was a statement saying: "I believe it would be better for the voters of Pennsylvania'if the governor would stop shadow boxing with hit- self-created straw man and get down to brass tacks. "Instead of talking to people who are in the unfortunate position of being forced to be present to listen to his tirades, why doesn't he accept my challenge to debate the national issues before the voters of Pennsylvania."
