John F. Ken nedy (D-Mass.) still perched on a pinnacle Thursday night as the man to beat for the Democratic presidential nomination. But cam -paign camps of challengers claimed they have staved off a first ballot Kennedy sweep. Pulling the fuse out of a first round Kern nedy blitz attempt is the Immediate goal la the preliminary battling roaring around the Democratic National Convention which opens Monday. Kennedy rivals said they have made It by shoring up the line of favorite sons.

One of the top lieutenants of Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson said campaign headquarters of the Texas senator has positive assurances that Govs. Robert B. Meyner of New Jersey, George Docking of Kansas and Herschel C.

Loveless of Iowa will stand fast as favorite sons on the first roll call. This was the word from Robert G. Baker, secretary to the Democratic major lty In the UH Senate. 1-0 New Jersey has 41 votes In the convention, Kansas 21 and Iowa 28. Kennedy supporters were counting on a major lift from another favorite son, Gov.

Edmund G. (Pat) Brown, and the 81-vote California delega tion. BACKERS OF some of the other contenders conceded this was likely perhaps before the convention curtain rolls up. But they went on from there to say that regardless of what Brown does, Kennedy has been cut off 'from-jr first ballot vie-' tory. And their contention is that if they can stop the Mas.

lu i 1 S. 1 Draft Rocky Move Eyes More Stated Br Auociated Ptcm SAN FRANCISCO, July 7-The national chairman for the draft Rockefeller movement said Thursday he plans to set up branches In 15 more states before the Republican National Convention in Chicago. THE MOVEMENT was launched Thursday morning More on Rocky, Page A-10 and now, has branches ny 21 northern, states. Although figures are noj available for any areas other than San Francisco, Chairman William M. Brinton called response good.

He said that more than 30 coupons were returned from advertisements iq the three San Francisco newspapers. By July 26, Brinton said, well wind up with a majority of delegates in Chicago. I dont expect a nomination on the first ballot, but I expect the nomination. BRINTON -SAID he had taken the plan up with some Rockefeller associates. They said, You are taking the initiative and are on your own.

Governor Rockefeller declined to comment. Rockefeller has, however, said he would serve if drafted. A Brinton said that the movement Is trying to find another, chairman for Nebraska. It will take a couple of days, he1 added. Mr.

Martin neglected to tell us he was leaving for Europe so soon. DAVID K. MARTIN, chairman of the Nebraska draft Rockefeller group, is vacation ing in Europe. By Heston lr. New York Times Writer LOS ANGELES, July 7 ynless Lyndon Johnson can somehow persuade the north to secede from the union between now and next Wednesday, his chances of being nominated for the presidency are approximately nil.

i ALL THE angels of heaven and hell in Los Angeles could not persuade the governors of California, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, or their honors the mayors of New York and Chicago to vote for 01 Lyndon. They have decided, as the Republicans did with Sen. Robert H. Taft in 1940-44-48-52, that he cant win in their districts, and since most of them put winning and their districts above everything else, they are ruling him out ACCORDINGLY, if there is any contest ahead here in Los Angeles it Is noj between Sen. John F.

Kennedy and Sen. Johnson, despite Johnsons impressive first-ballot strength, but between Sen. Kennedy and Adlai Stevenson of Illinois. By himself, Stevenson can do nothing. For himself, Johnson can do nothing.

But together it is just barely possible and no more that Johnson could hold Kennedy and force serious consideration of Stevenson. THIS COMBINATION would be even more potent if Johnson were to startle the convention by withdrawing in favor of Stevenson. Then a combination of the south, plus the sentimental support for Stevenson, plus the fears of Kennedys youth and religion, might put Stevenson over. Such an unlikely coalition appeals to a strange variety of delegates milling around here in Los Angeles. It appeals to those who sincerely believe Stevenson would be a better president than Kennedy.

Shasta, who estimated that winning the crown was worth $15,000 to her in job opportunities.

Terry placed the shimmering crown of 1,200 pearls on the head of Linda and gave her the jewel-decked gold scepter. The 120-pound winner receives $1,000, a golf trophy, wardrobe and other gifts from the pageant First runnerup was Mary Rodites, 5-foot 7-lnch brunette from Port Jefferson, N.Y.

Stuart Symington of Missouri or Adlai E.

Stevenson. In spite of all the maneuver ing, four days before the con-vention kickoff there still Ttad been no major important development that could nail down the party nomination.
