CHICAGO, H.. July TO-
When q bandwagon tries to get
started. it usually moves just a
few inches at a time. There's
O creaking Of the wheels
pause-and sometimes a COM
plete stop and sometimes q sud-
den movement ahead that keeps
on till everybody is aboard.
This, in brief, describes the
prospects for the success of Gen.
Eisenhower at the Republican
National Convention even before
the balloting has started. The
Eisenhower forces have been
gaining by inches. A few dele
gates here and there have been
switching over from Senator Taft
and there is now undisputed evi-
dence that Pennsylvania, Michi-
gan and California will each give
Gen. Eisenhower a majority of
their respective delegations.
This means that inside each
OF these three big delegations
California with 70, Pennsylvania
with 70 and Michigan with 40
the pressure against the mi
nority holding out for Senator
Taft is growing more intense by
the hour. If these three big dele
cations begin to swing into line.
the Eisenhower bandwagon may
well be said to have started. It
could affect Illinois. Indiana and
other Taft States in a sudden
turn toward the general.
The average observer may
think the term bandwagon is
just a metaphorical term used
by politicians to dramatize a
movement toward q successful
candidate in q convention. It's
more than that-it means that
down the line In the local dis
trictS and within State political
councils 1t doesn't pay to have
fingered too long behind the
loser. The late Claude Swan
son, Democratic Senator from
Virginia for many years. had a
set Of maxims which used to be
called "the Swansonian Code"
in and around Capitol Hill
cloakrooms. One tenet was this:
Never leave the station till
the train starts moving. And.
next, never fail to Chamber

diced advice to dovetail with the
administrations policies. In
the last two world conflicts
there was a near balance Of
power between the groups of
nations that we're fighting each
other.
Had traitors not stolen the
secrets Of the atom bomb and
given then to the Russians, we
could better have hoped to con-
tain the Communist drive to-
ward world conquest through our
exclusive possession Of that,
dread weapon. But this. unfor-
tunately, Is no longer a hope.
Our experiences in the Korean
laboratory for World War III
have shown that qualitatively
our Air Force and particularly
our airmen are superior to those
Of the enemy. II we possessed
today the air power which blind
people within our ranks have
denied this country, we could
look at the world situation with
less concern. This situation, Mr..
Hoover maintains. can still be
remedied. But to avoid ma
tional bankruptcy. which could
bring defeat as easily as a mill
tary disaster. 1t is essential that
we cut down on many of the
present military expenditures
at home and abroad and con-
centrate on building a quail
tatively unmatched air power.
Such q force could not Twin"
war against the u. s. s. r. in
the accepted military meaning Of
the word; it could not physically
occupy the huge Soviet territory.
But nothing is further from our
minds than to wage an aggres-
sive action. If this air force
were brought into being in the
shortest possible time 1t would
unquestionably become the
greatest possible deterrent to q
Communist aggression in either
the East or the West. And to
any sober mind this does not
represent isolationism.

Clemson is banned this year

Legislature was necessary to bring
about today's game.

dating back to 1898. So intense
is the rivalry that the Fair

CHARLOTTESVILLE. Va, Oct
23.-Coach Art Guepe Of Virginia
is hoping his team gets off to
better start against Duke Satur-
day than it did against VMI last
week.
The truth is, the Cavaliers can't
afford to play the game Of ball,

Blue Devils. Pass interceptionS,
fumbles and inadequate running
and blocking on the part of Vir-
Rinia helped VMI take TO lead
in the third quarter. The Cava-
liers recovered in time to make a
rout of it, but the same failingS
against Duke would create disas-
ter. Both teams are unbeaten and
united.
Virginia's defensive unit. the
national leader. was big factor
against the Keydets. The Cava-
liers have permitted only 141.8
yards per game, according to sta
tistics released today by the Ma
tional Collegiate Athletic Bureau.
Georgia Tech is second in this de-
partment, with an average yield of
1925 yards. followed by Maryland,
Southern California and Duke, in
that order.
Guepe says he never worried
about the VMI game. Neither did
his players at first. Everybody was
thinking of Duke until VMI went
in front. Then, the Cavaliers set
tied down and began looking like
the power they are supposed to be
If past performances are a

VMIs ii points are the only ones
scored against Virginia in four

points given up with an average OF
2.8 per game.
Virginia also ranks high in pass
defense. Brigham Young leads
with an average of 34.3 yards per
game earned in passes by the op-
position. Alabama is second and
Virginia, third, followed by MiSsis-
sippi State and Tennessee.
