Favorite-son candidates. for
the 1856 Republican presiden-
tial nomination are held in
abeyance until President
Eisenhower's decision to run
or not to run is made. Here
and there, however, there Is
an outcropping which gives
promise Of a considerable num-
Der Of such candidates., ur-
less the President agreeS to
stand for a second term. One
Of the most recent is q demand
by some Of his Indiana friends
that Representative Charles A.
Halleck Of Indiana be entered
in the Indiana presidential
preference primary, which will
be held next May z. Mr..
Halleck, an ardent supporter
Of President Eisenhower and
his program. said emphatically
when he was in Washington
last week he hoped that Presi-
dent Eisenhower would be able
to run and that until the Presi-
dent made his decision, Repub-
licans should keep quiet. Un-
til State Senator Roy Conrad
issued a statement calling on
Halleck's friends to enter his
name In the primary, it had
been supposed generally that
Gov. Craig, another strong
supporter OF Eisenhower, would
have the Indiana delegation to
the Republican National Con-
vention instructed for him-as
a fayorite son, If nothing more.
knight Speaks Out
Gov. Knight of California
did not hesitate to announce
almost Immediately after Pres
ident Eisenhower suffered q
heart attack that he. Knight,
wanted to be California's
favorite son candidate for
the Republican nomination.
Whether he was actuated
by a desire to head OF a band
wagon movement for Vice
President Nixon, or whether he
wants the presidential nomi-
nation for himself. Knight will
try, as Of today. to have the
delegation instructed for him
self.
With Eisenhower out of the
picture-if and when that hap
pens--it is easy to conjecture a
wholesome crop of favorite
sons springing up-some of
them hopeful the lightning
win strike. Take Ohio. for ex-
ample. Senator Bricker would
be a natural. He was a candi-
date for the presidential nomi-
nation in 1914, until it became
obvious that Thomas E. Dewey,
New York Governor, was to
have the nomination. Bricker
became the vice presidential
candidate.
Maryland will put forward in
all probability Gov. McKeldin
and Massachusetts,, Gov. Her

THIS AND THAT
{ By CHARLES E. TRACEWELL

+
Cats often get their heads
stuck in salmon cans. but q
skunk in a bottle
This was the gruesome pic
ture sent in by q correspond
ent.
All discarded cans should be
crushed, to prevent this trag-
edy.
Wide-mouthed bottles and
Jugs are best broken. @
These precautions are easy
to recommend. but difficult to
remember or do.
All the friend Of animals can
do is do the best he can.
After that, he must trust in
the Lord. as the creatures
must do, ultimately.
The desire to protect them,
however, lies deep in many
breasts. so forethougft is the
best remedy, after all.
kH*
Put out very short lengths
Of yarn, at nesting time. for
the birds.
Cord also is best left short.
Long lengths may hang a robin
or some other fine singer.
In cold, metal feeding sta
lions some birds risk freezing
sensitive toes to the iron.
As.to cans and bottles, it is
difficult to know Just how wide
they must be for a foraging
animal to get his head into;
in many cases. they are able
to get into q much narrower
opening than one would ex-
pect.
1t is this way with bird
house entrances. The little
places a feathered bird can
enter surprise one, but it must
be remembered that feathers
often make a bird look larger
than he is.

What they do not know, and

HUNTER AIR FORCE BASE,
Ca, July 14.-A high Air Force
official from the Pentagon, who
is on District Air National
Guard maneuvers at Travis
Field near here, few 5000 miles
at 10000 feet yesterday to find
out a little more about how his
Office is working.
It was the first fight in
a Boeing BAT six-engined
Stratojet bomber for Col. John
I. Lerom, deputy assistant Sec
retary of the Air Force in
charge of reserve affairs. It
evoked from him such enthu-
siasm that everybody in the
Air Guard would like to try the
aircraft, which is the backbone
of the Strategic Air Command.
Col. Lerom himself even flew
the ship himself for awhile.
Praise for Reservists
Col. Lerom, who lives at 721
Wallace drive. Falls Church,
Va. especially praised the re-
servist crewmen aboard the
Stratojet, which flew up and
down the Atlantic Coast. cover
ing the 5000 miles in only seven
hours.
Col. Lerom was briefed before
take-off by Col. John Batter,
commanding officer of the 308th
Bomb Wing at Hunter. The
aircraft commander was Mai.
F. M. Millsap.
Meanwhile, at Travis Field, the
District Air Guardsmen were 60

which enable the jet pilots of
the 113th Fighter Interceptor
Wing to follow their two-week
program of gunnery practice high
over the Atlantic.
Pilot Shaken Up
One setback occurred yester-
day. A Sabrejet of the 142d
Fighter Interceptor Squadron,
from Wilmington. Del, was COM
ing in for a landing when it's
nose wheel collapsed. The pilot,
Capt. John E. Somerville of Will
mington, was shaken up but un-
injured. Mai. Harry Hippler of
Annandale, Va. the wings direc-
tor of materials, said there was
a good chance the airplane would
be repaired in time to fly again
before the training period is over.
The accident, although of a
minor nature. will be thoroughly
investigated. and the results will
be reflected in flying safety talks.
Furthering flying safety is the
work of Maj. John A. Pope, SO,
of 4610 North Twenty-second
street. Arlington, Va.
The enlisted men at the ma
neuvers already are looking for
ward to receiving their pay
checks, from the Office of Capt.
Phillip M. Thienel. the finance
officer. who lives at Fort Belvoir
Va. The pay will be issued to
some 1.700 airmen of the 1l3th
Fighter-Interceptor Wing at the
end of the training period, but
the preparatory paper work is
extensive, and is being done at
Hunter.
$65,000 to d. c. Reservists
The pay will amount to about
$65,000 for the District Air
Guardsmen alone. Another $780,
900 will go to the men of the
104th Squadron of Baltimore,
and the same amount to the
142nd of Delaware.
Everybody at Travis Field is
looking forward to scheduled
visits by inspecting dignitaries
On Saturday, visits are slated to
be made by Gov. McKeldin of

House foes Of forced military
service for doctors and dentists
lined up today for what ap-
peared to be a losing fight.
Their job was made more diff
ficult by the Senate's insistence
that extension of the present
draft law for doctors and den
lists be coupled with a House
passed bill to extend the regular
military draft. Both are due to
expire at midnight Thursday.
In a Senate-House conference
Senators refused to delete the
doctor draft provision ano
House leaders scheduled a show
down vote today on whether the
House will GO along.
Separate legislation to con-
tinue the doctor-dentist draft
has been bottled up in the House
Rules Committee, some Of whose
members contend the extension
isn't necessary. The Pentagon
says 1t is.
Foes planned to ask the House
to send the combined measure
back to conference In hopes the
Senate would yield and agree
to handle the two draft bills
separately.
