tive assistant and speech-writ-
ing aide to the President, drove
UP from the summer White
House offices at Denver today
to assist in preparation of the
speeches.

fishing today until late after
noon, going out after trout in
st. Louis Creek after his speech

the President was cooking all the
meals for himself, Aksel Nelson

ranch, showing golden aspen
trees nesting among green pines

Hollywood Bowl Speech.
1t appears that the Presidents
addresses at McNary Dam and
at the Hollywood bowl will fit
into the Republican campaign to
retain control of Congress in the
November elections.
The McNary Dam dedication
will give Gen. Eisenhower an
opportunity for reviewing his
administrations policy for max
1mum local and private industry
participation in hydro-electric
power projects.
His speech at the Hollywood
Bowl. sponsored by the Fedora
ton of Republican Women's
Clubs. the Citizens for Eisen-
hover and the Democrats for
Eisenhower of Southern Califor-
nia,. is counted on by G. o. P.
leaders there to give a boost to
the campaigns of Republican
senatorial and congressional can
didates.
Senator Kuchel, California Re-
publican is being opposed for re-
election by Democratic Repre-
sentative Yorty.
Gives a Golf Lesson.
Before getting down to work
with Mr.. Harlow on next weeks
speeches. the President turned
temporary golf pro to give a les
son to his host, Mr.. Nielsen.
Using a short iron he just hap
pened to have with him, Gen.
Eisenhower spent some time
teaching Mr.. Nielsen "how to hit
a golf ball." Mr.. Hagerty told re-
porters. With no golf course
handy, he said they were lust
hitting some old balls out into
the pasture"
