Allan Shivers of Texas this morning told thousands of Orlandoan.1 that they should vote for tho Nixon-Lodge ticket leadership down the road to peace and prosperity." Shivers made threa speeches from truck beds at Colonial Plaza, Grand-Way and Eastgate Shopping Center at midday.

More than 800 persons were on hand at Colonial Plaza and greeted the form er Texas governor with an ovation. He was introduced by Martin Andersen, publisher of the Orlando Sentinel-Star, a friend of Shivers for 40 years. OOO Shivers sahl that the American people will elect Nixon because he has "a great record of public scrv j-fke, and extensive training under Pres. Eisenhower." "He believes in America, appreciates the greatness of our country and will not stoop to run down America for any political effect." Shivers went on to say that Sen. John F.

Kennedy has a bulldozing political team that steamrollered Sen, Lyndon B. Johnson during the competition for the Dem ocratic presidential nomina tion. 9 "After running this man all the way down in tha ground, Kennedy then picked him up, dusted him, off and held him up to the people and told them he was a great leader." The Texan said that If Kennedy is elected, his farm program will take over ev ery farm in the country. Ha also said that Florida's right to-work law will go out tha window. Kennedy would "turn tha crank to inflation and maka the dollars in the pension and retirement checks worth only dimes," he declared.

i Throughout his speeches, Shivers was repeatedly in terrupted by applause from the crowds. Nixon's training and ex perience will mean that Americans will not be sent to foreign soil to die in battle, and America will continue to live in peace, Shivers said. He told his listeners not to let party affiliation force them to choose a second-rate team for president and vice president. "Vote for the man most qualified and experienced to lead us, Nixon and Lodge," asserted. Shivers has been traveling 1,600 miles a day talking for the GOP team, encouraging Democrats to vote for Nixon- Lodge.

Eisenhower took to the political hustings with Vice Pres. Nixon and Henry Cabot Lodge today in a dramatic late- campaign bid to help them capture metropolitan votes. The group teamed for the first time at campaign rallies spread over a wide area in and around New York City The kick-off took place in midmorning at the giant Roosevelt Field shopping center in Nassau county, adjoining the eastern boundary of New York City on Long Island. From there they whirled to Westchester Coun tv north of the citv. Both these areas are heavily Re publican.

0 0 0 The anocarance of the president and the GOP can didates for president and vice president the subur ban spots, plus later gather ings in Manhattan, was Ob viously in an effort to garner as many stray votes as pos sible to offset the great Democratic weight in New York City. Eisenhower told a throng gathered in the sunny but windy outdoor area of Roosevelt Field that Nixon and Lodge offer the nation "the finest tvpe of leadership to day that is available to the nation." 0 0 0 Police estimated the crowd on the field at 50,000. In Westchester County, where the candidates spoke from a platform at the coun tv airoort. officers put the figure at 25,000. In both places there were great cheers for the president and others.

In Westchester. Eisenhow er asserted that Nixon and Lodge "stand for everything that has made the united States great." Noting that Sen. John F. Kennedy, the Democratic presidential candidate, had said it was time for the U. S.

to move ahead, Eisenhower declared that the last eight years have been the most remarkable period of growth in any peacetime era in the nation's history. 0 0 The airport gathering led to what Marvin Enckson, chief of the Westchester County police, termed the bigggest traffic jam he had ever seen in the county. Nixon took the platform after Eisenhower to assail his opposing candidate as "a Pied Piper traveling the land, promising everything to everybody." Nixon said Kennedy's pro gram would cost the nation $15 billion a year, and that a man who said it could be done without raising taxes is an "economic ignoramus." Eisenhower, Nixon and Lodge all met at Roosevelt Field to launch the last-ditch drive after flying from New York City in helicopters.

John F. Kennedy today pledged that next year a Democratic Congress and president "will enact a bill to raise teachers' salaries." And the presidential candi date also said: "One of the first items on the Democrat ic agenda in 19G1 is the pas sage of an adequate bill for school construction." He outlined these promises and others in the education field in a talk prepared for a "key to victory" breakfast, before hopping south to San Diego and then north to San Jose and San Francisco. OOO Kennedy's campaign exploded into a frenzied climax this week. After his San Francisco appearance, he will fly to Phoenix, Ariz. Between now and election night, he'll touch 16 states.

A stop at Detroit, on Friday had to be dropped because it just couldn't be fitted into the tight schedule. A new and mocking note toward Vice Pres. Richard M. Nixon again entered Kennedy's tone yesterday, a kaleidoscopic day that brought him here from the East Coast for a mammoth downtown motorcade at noon.

Eisenhower into the campaign in the closing days before the election next Tuesday. At a rally at the Douglas Aircraft plant in Long Beach, Kennedy said, "Yesterday I understand Mr.
