(Continued From Page X) the view that two ballots will be needed The Associated Press poll of delegates willing to express a public preference showed Stevenson with 554 of the 6864 votes needed for the nomination Harrlman trailed with 229tt other candidates had 283 and 3054 were uncommitted endorsement of Harrlman apparently gave the favorite sons hope they can hold out longer on the chance that a balloting deadlock may develop Waiting Game Gov Frank Lausche who has most of 58 votes pledged to him made it clear he expects to wait out several ballots before he releases his delegation "I think there will be an early disposition of the Lausche said Stevenson's backers have been claiming a majority of the Ohio votes when Lausche Teleases them Gov Robert Meyner still was a holdout with most of New 38 votes tied up Meyner said it was doubtful his name would go before the convention In their effort to boost their total backers'indicated they were counting on picking up strength primarily from New Jersey Massachusetts and Washington and from several Southern States The maneuvering of Sen Lyndon Johnson of Texas held out the prospect that Stevenson might be denied some Southern support he otherwise might have on the first or the second ballots Johnson moved into the category of a candidate for the nomination Pipe Firm Employees To Vote On Petition Of Teamsters Union The NLRB 'today set
