Know Who Starts Demo Moves? The GOP! By KENNETH I. DIXON WASHINGTON. Julv surprising how often big-time political eampugns seem to resemble majoi sports events the a I furore of the current presidential fight certainly proves the point. Actually, from the point of view, the sports-politics parallel is extremely apt. In both instances, FAIR.

1 oi example, at football games many fans content themselves with watching the man who is carrying the ball (when they can see him, which is also a hazard in po.uics!) This of course, is one of the better methods of being prepared to cheer at the proper instant when the goal line is crossed Howe in most games, it gives the spectator little clue as to why the goai line was crossed at that particular time The real a vv may be found in the unnoticed but brilliant blocking of some unsung halfback, or in the offensive power of some brawny lineman who has opened up a hole big enough to drive a truck through. It may lie in the success same a clever fare or ii the meticulous timing of a mouse trap play. In any case, tnose are the points watched by the experts, just as in has a 11 they watch the hall-handier more closely than scoring hotshot and in hoxlng they watch the body-worker and puncher more cioselv than the spectacular face-hitter. So iI g.T's through arts. In politics, it is equally easy to get fooled into following the day-to-day developments of the more spectacular events without watching too closely what makes them possible.

For instance, few people seem to realize that behind the seemingly ubiquitous Eisenhower for Democratic nominee boom lie some of the best efforts of several ranking Republican leaders. It is useless to name them for they would raise officially horrified eyes to the skies at the very thought, and call on ti.c a tars to oe their witness that so. But It is not that they wish to see Eisenhower actually running on the Democratic ticket, understand. Nothing would frighten them more at this reading. But they are not worried about that possibility.

Many, many moons ago, as the bedtime stories go, a groun of stalwart GOP supporters invited thp generm out for the even.ng.
