City Prediciers
Are Wrong Again

Kennewick guessed wrong again
when it tried to pick the Demo-
cratic nominee for president for
the fall race.
The majority of predicters said
that General Eisenhower would
be the man. Running close behind
with Al per cent of those polled
was President Harry S. Truman.
Ten per cent picked Justice Will
liam Douglas while a meager one
per cent went out on the limb for
Justice Hugo Black as the dark
horse that would end up in the
saddle.
When the people of Kennewick
tried their hand at the crystal
ball during the Republican con-
vention they picked Senator Ar
thur Vandenburg of Michigan to
get the COP nod.
Of those who picked Truman
to win in the recent poll, nine
persons scored clean bullseye by
picking Truman on the first bal
lot. Others guessed that he would
get it on the second, third or even
fourth ballot. s
OF all those questioned, none
doubted that Ike could have the
nomination if he wanted it, but
expressed belief that he would
not accept, even before the Gen.
eral came right out and said so.
