EditorEngineered Slugging Primary By Marguerite Davis LINCOLN, (U.PJ--Seven candidates fought today for top rating in Nebraska's GOP primary--and that fact alone was a victory for Raymond A. McConnell, 32- year-old editor of the Lincoln Journal newspapers. McConnell became i many months ago that the name of every possible candidate should be on the party ballots. He wanted Nebraska voters to be able to express their complete opinions. He did not'like the idea of primaries such as that in Wisconsin last week, where voters could csst ballots favoring Gen.

Douglas MacArthur, Harold E. Stassen, and Gov. Thomas E. Dewey but could not express themselves on Sen. Robert A.

Taft because he had not entered. As a result, McConnell originated an idea that turned the primary into a free-for-all popularity contest. He organized a statewi.de bipartisan committee to put it into effect. The editor investigated state law and discovered that candidates sre neither required to file personally nor permitted to withdraw. Thirty-five Nebraskans, ranging from the lieutenant governor to labor union representatives, were invited to join the committee and help circulate petitions for both the willing and reluctant candidates.

Unless a candidate specifically ruled himself out, as did Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, his name was tossed Into the hopper. Gov. Earl Warren had not planned to enter here but the committee did it for him.

House Speaker Joseph Martin and Sen. Arthur Vandenberg of Michigan were prominently mentioned as possible candidates. When the committee asked them if they were interested, they did not give clear-cut answers. So their name went in, too. Stassen, Dewey and Taft were eager to be included and MacAr- thur'a supporters were anxious to have him in the fight.

Democrats were limited to the likely candidate, President Truman, after Eisenhower removed himself and Henry Wallace bolted to form his third party. McConnell said today "that he considered his battle royal plan a "No voters are better informed than Nebraskans on the on the manner in which the candidates face them," he said. He estimated one or more of the candidates have been seen and heard by 60,000 citizens, two-thirds of all Republicans who voted in the last presidential primary. "I'm sorry we couldn't do the same for the Democrats," he said. He believes both candidates and voters profited.

The aspirants became acquainted with Nebraska ana were led to make firm commitments on two matters vital to the state; farm price policy and the Pick- Sloan plan for developing the Missouri river basin. He hopes this year's free-for-all will set a precedent for future Nebraska primaries. Risk Toi's Life Yor Fun' OAKLAND, (UP) Two women told police today that they were "just playing" when they repeatedly pushed a buggy containing a 16-month-old baby into the path of speeding automobiles. i One of the women was Mrs. Elizabeth Allen, 36, the mother of the baby in the buggy.

She and Mrjs. David Lee Allen, 31, were jailed for investigation of attempted murder. The child, Rosemaric Smith was taken to detention home for safekeeping. Witnesses said the women stood at the curbstone at a busy street intersection and sent the baby car- riage rolling across the stream of traffic. Once, the baby carriage upset and spilled the baby on the pavement.

Placing her back in the carriage, the two women again pushed the baby buggy back into the traffic, police said. When horrified pusscrs- by protested, the women told them to "mind their own business," and moved to another spot two blocks away where they resumed their pastime. They were arrested shortly after. They told police they were "just playing." Authorities said they had been drinking, "but were not drunk." Gray Suede with platform 11.95 C.ASM- WAY 5 W'AUKESHA'S LEADING DEPARTMENT STORE.
