FOR BETTY! A DOLL FOP THEN TO THE VILLAGE THEY CAWf EACH CHOICE WEIR PAFENTS AND TOWNSPEOPLE WILDLY PEJOICE GOP Governors Picking A Candidate COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. CAP) Republican governors, demanding a party role to match their bolstered numbers, went to work today to build an organization that could propel one of them into the GOP presidential nomination. Their potential leaders were not saying which one although Michigan's Gov. George Romney clearly is the front runner among them, as he is in the public opinion polls. Colorado Gov.

John A. Love and Rhode' Island's John H. Chafee, both seeking the chairmanship of the Republican Governors' Assocation, agreed that the 25 GOP state executives should seek to line up behind a single candidate for the White House. With broad, if not unanimous agreement, Chafee told a joint news conference Thursday night, the governors can control' the selection of the party's 1968 candidate. He said the governors also should work to make sure that the next Republican platform embraces imaginative proposals for "new solutions to the many old problems." Chafee said the governors should take an active, role in the selection of their state delegations to the next national convention.

And he said they should decide "early in the game" who they want nominated. "I have no first choice now," he said. Love said he believes the next nominee will be a governor. "We have an outstanding slate of governors," he said. He added that Republicans in Congress are trapped in a position of minority opposition to administration proposals, which does not beset the governors.

House Republican Leader Gerald R. Ford of Michigan said there would be no dissension between Republicans on Cpr.H"l Hill and in the statehouses "1 am tired of reading how we are going to fly off into all kinds Litter Is Less NEW YORK (AP) A group that calls itself Keep America Beautiful, and puts out a trash count called the National Litter Index, reports that Americans are slowing down their deposit of beer cans, candy wrappers and scrap paper along the nation's highways. KAB said its litter count this year showed an increase over last year, but not as great an increase as it showed last year over 1964, when the group began keeping track of trash. KAB attributed the slowdown to America's awareness of national beautification programs. of collision courses," Ford said in a speech prepared for the association's first formal session.

At an afternoon meeting the governors are expected to elect a chairman to succeed retiring Gov. Robert E. Smylie of Idaho. Ford said Republicans in Congress are not going to use their increased numbers for obstruction. He promised a positive, meaningful minority program and offered the governors a chance to help shape it.

He said GOP congressional leaders will propose next year a system of state and federal tax sharing, and Social Security increases tied to cost-of-living factors. The House minority leader said he would like to see the governors accorded a bigger role in the Republican Policy Coordinating Committee, the party's top policy-making council. The governors were looking for the same thing. Gov. Daniel J.

Evans of Washington offered a resolution seeking to increase from five to seven the number of gubernatorial seats on the coordinating group. That would be generally in line with the increase in GOP gubernatorial numbers up from 17 to at least 25 as a result of the Nov. 8 election. One race, that in Georgia, still is contested. An Associated Press survey of GOP gubernatorial opinion showed signs of cautious support of Romney and some for Richard M.

Nixon for the 1968 nomination. But there was no sign of a governors' bandwagon for Romney. Chafee indicated that California Governor-elect Ronald Reagan, another rated among potential nominees, will be in the 1968 running. Love and Chafee said the presidential disclaimer of New York Gov. Nelson A.

Rockefeller apparently is a firm one. Rockefeller has said he never again would seek the presidency.
