Mrs RM Lafay ette Coaxing Just Act In Political Play WASHINGTON Everyone has his own scenario for this Democratic National Convention The way things have been going with the patty one scenario has as mu'ch validity as the next This is the one that I have written and if it comes true remember you read it here It is the fourth day of the convention and the Democrats have been unable to I decide on a presidential candidate The i fight to seat delegations has taken up three days and those people who were ruled ineligible have refused to I give up their seats to those who were officially designated as delegates to the convention Almost every state delegation has two people sitting in every chair! i There have been no demonstrations for the candidates in the hall because everyone is afraid if he gets up and marches they let him back in his spetinn avain On the first ballot McGovern picked up 1234 votes well shy of the 1509 he needed The rest were split between the other candidates with the uncommitted refus ing to vote for anyone By the tenth ballot of all night session the convention was hopelessly deadlocked On NBC John Chancellor and David Brinkley became short tempered and refused to talk to each other Howard Smith and Harry Reasoner on ABC also were not speaking to each other and on CBS Walter Cronkite talking to him self It was obvious to everyone in and out of the convention hall that a compromise candidate had to be found one who had not already been nominated But who? The only man whose name is proposed as the compromise candidate is a very famous but controversial fig ure on the American scene He has announced many times that he is not a candidate for the presidency or the vice presidency and has said under no conditions would he accept a draft This young man whose name had been associated with a very embarrassing incident is a household word now But the compromise candidate is not at the convention He has purpose ly stayed away so people would believe he was not interested in the nomination puts in a call to him and the candidate finally agrees to a draft and says he will take the next plane to Miami And how Bobby ischer the US chess champion became the Democratic presidential nominee for 1972 SOUTH ON 52 BYPASS (Across rom Alcoa) BOBBASNEY I 5 in the News Ml 4 Gov Askew To Speak At Both Conventions TALLAHASSEE la (AP) Gov Reubin will deliver speeches at both the Demo cratic and Republican national conventions in Miami Beach WarlinC LSvLULY UXvDO JUVIVIUIJ iL 1 that Askew a Democrat plans to accept by President Dwight Eisenhower the early an invitation to deliver the welcoming address at the GOP parley Aug 21 Askew is scheduled to deliver the keynote address Tuesday at the Democratic convention i Harling said the Republicans invited Askew Vto speak because he is the chief executive of the host state PBiirKS 72 wundeips all trucks tTO'S HflU MUSTANGSMjg ZAfHi lllhOllUliiTillllll fo A fz fc a I I9TZ jj: MT 4.
