Knight Intends to
Head Delegation
From California

SACRAMENTO, Calf, RA
Gov. Goodwin J. knight said to-
day he intends to head California;
delegation to the 1856 Republican
National Convention, even if it
means an open fight with Vice
President Richard M. Nixon.
He reiterated that if President
Eisenhower, his first choice, does
not run, he will seek control Of
the states important bloc Of votes
himself as a favorite son-and
only nominal-candidate.
Knight, in an interview mark
ing the start of his third year in
office, made no attempt to hide
his GOODNESS toward Nixon.
He said he had heard rumors
that the Vice Presidents home
state supporters are planning to
enter their own slate of delegates
in the June California primary in
the event Eisenhower bows out Of
the race.
California voters select conven-
ton delegates of both parties in a
presidential primary election. The
delegates must be pledged to a
candidate who has given his writ
ten consent.
Asked if a Nixon ticket would
affect his plans for a Knight
pledged delegation, the governor
replied, mot in the slightest.
Knight agreed the California
delegation-second only, with 70
votes, to New York's 96 in 1852
would be vital to Nixon's presi-
dental hopes but, he said:
"The Republicans of California
will want to be represented by a
completely independent delega-
ton devoted to the Republican
Party and not to the ambitions of
any one man."

Death Of Creece's Premier Papagos
Leaves Threat of Political Crisis

ATHENS, Greece, RAGreece
faced the possibility of a serious
political crisis today after the
death of Premier Alexander Papa
COS, the national hero.
Field Marshal Papagos, 71-year-
old victor over the Italians i'm
World War III and the Commu-
nists in 1949, died last night or
heart exhaustion following lung
hemorrhage.
The marshal had been confined
to his home since January with
gastric troubles resulting from
World War II Imprisonment in a
Nazi camp.
Members of the Premier's Con-
sentative Greek Rally Party have
planned to meet after his funeral
Friday in an effort to reweld par
ty unity and settle on successor.
The party, a coalition of various
political groups, had come near to
dissolution in the months since
the Premier's illness robbed it of
much of his unifying influence
Only yesterday Papagos had
nominated Foreign Minister Ste
phan Stephanopoulos to be pro-
visional premier during his illness
but this automatically ceased with
the Premier'S death.
Because general election would
mean the end Of the party, politi-
cal observers expected its diverse
elements to subordinate their in
dividual ambitions in an effort to
agree on a new premier.
u. S. officials in Washington
were distressed to hear of Papa
Cos death. Americans who had
dealt with him regarded him
highly and found him very friend
ly to the United States. The Am
orleans also feared the effects on
the country If struggle for power

Plumber Designs
Weird Craft for
Floating Shop

SEATTLE, R-Roland Burrows
has come out Of the north in one
Of the weirdest seagoing contrap-
tons a plumber ever hung togeth-
er. To folk around Juneau, the
contraption was known as "The
Thing" while it was building.
To terror-stricken fish along the
route from Juneau to Seattle, it
probably appeared as a great
green whale, with its jaws agape
to dredge in little fish and its
stomach already rumbling in an
ticipation.
To plumber Burrows, though,
the contraption's no thing" at all.
She's the light Of his life, his self
designed, homemade 46-foot cata-
maran dreamboat, the Blue Star.
True to the catamaran type, the
Blue Star is a twin-hull job, with
a gap between the hulls. The Blue
Star, though, is like no catamaran
that ever visited Seattle before.
Burrows spent the past seven
years designing her, he says, and
the past year and a half building
her in his spare time.
She took six days for the run
south, but Burrows sets her top
speed at "about II knots as soon
as the wrinkles are out of her en-
gines." He estimates his strange
crafts cost at $4,000.
She'll be worth all that, he says,
as a floating shop for the plumb
ing service he calls the Burrows
Welding CO.
And with his floating shop will
Burrows be right there when any
one in southeast Alaska calls for
a plumber? well, Burrows says,
"I'll be just a few hours away"
He's sure his Blue Star won't
break up the way Gar Woods ex-
detrimental catamaran, the Ven
tura, did off Florida last year.
