Johnson's lop political aides say, in fact, that the President's only real big state worries are Illinois and Ohio if Goldwater is GOP nominee. Democratic concern in these states seems 1 ttr'it' jit ovt.tiij How does Goldwater to put together an electoral victory over President Lyndon Johnson in November? It will require 270 electoral votes to win the presidency. lu the days before Kennedy's assassination.

Goldwater backers used to circulate a tally sheet suggesting that Barry could roil up 311 or 41 more than needed. They no longer talk in such terms. Their old total included, ol course, all 128 electoral votes tor the 11-state Old South. But today it is the Old Lyndon South, and only the most optimistic Goldwater men seriously talk ofi winning more than a handful of southern states. Even if Goldwater managed to win all but Johnson's Texas (25- votes), Georgia (12), which never has gone Republican, and jtional troubles than to high es- of Goldwater's strength.

Goldwater people speak hopefully of California. But independent appraisers now give it to Johnson by landslide proportions. The White House thinks California and New York are in the best shape of all the big ones for next November. When Scranton aides had a socializing session with Goldwater spokesmen late one night at the Cleveland Governors Conference the two groups ran through an electoral vote count. Scranlun men were curious as to how the planned to build a fail wctory.

Later, a Scranton aide said: "Frankly, in their count, they stopped at Indiana on their way east." This account seems slightly fuzzy, since Goldwater's manag Vacation Bible school to start Monday Vacation Bible school will start Monday at the Temple Baptist Church, Redlands boulevard and Cypress, and continue through July 3, meeting five days a week.

Rafferty-Braden dispute shots fired EUREKA (UPf) fired in the Rafferty-Braden feud today began hitting Frank Sinatra, Gregory Peck, Orson Wells, Danny Kayc, Frederic March and a host of other celebrities. Dr.

Max Rafferty, the stale superintendent of public instruction, suggested that he would prefer to have no dealings wiln Sinatra and the others because they, too, had been cited in a 1949 report from the state Sen ate Fact Finding Committee on Un American Activities. The committee, then under Sen. Jack B. Tenney, said that (he celebrities were "typical of the individuals within the various Stalinist orbits." Rafferty himself produced photostats of the committee's report to help explain why he wanted nothing to do with the Constitutional Rights Foundation, a nonprofit group in Los -Angeles that is working with the state Board of Education to develop a public school course on the bill of rights. Arrows and underlinings on the photo.stats picked out three names from among all the others.

They were Seniel Ostrow. owner of the Scaley Mattress and Mr. and Mrs. Julian Sieroty. operators of the Eastern Columbia Corp.

in Los Rafferty's point was that Ostrow and Mrs. Sieroty are now directors of the foundation, whose bill of rights essay contest he has refused to judge. When asked about the others on the list, who have nothing to do with the foundation, Rafferty declined to name individuals. But, he said, "I would not care to be associated with any people who have been cited for subversion or communism by a committee of the Senate of this state without evidence to the contrary." The committee said that Sinatra and the others had never "challenged, denied, repudiated or attempted to refute a single fact cited before this committee." Rafferty released his photo stats Wednesday and ran headlong into Thomas W. Braden, president of the state board ot education, who called it "demagoguery" and promised to "go up and down the state attacking Dr.

-Max Rafferty until California rids itself of a superintendent of education who cares nothing for iru'vh or for education."
