In the camps of the two major party nominees the watchword is saturation reach as many people as possible with your candidate's name and his message. The technique isn't new, of course. It has been developing for years, particularly in the last two or three campaigns.

But never before, perhaps, has there been such a determined effort to keep the candidates' names before the voters via front pages, radio and television, magazines and so on. THE TWO nominees will peddle their personalities, as well as their convictions on major issues, in three and perhaps four radio-TV debates in late September and in October. This will involve almost com-ple saturation of the airways, since all networks will carry the shows. The cowboys will be blacked out on all except local stations. But Nexon and Kennedy want not only saturation but political sales.
