tor Kefauver of Tennessee, who
whipped Mr.. Stevenson in the
Minnesota vote.
| The Stevenson camp does not
dismiss Gov. Averell Hartman
of New York as a possible noni-
nee if Mr.. Stevenson suffers
further primary defeats that
might knock him out Of the race,
1t is the apparent feeling OF
Mr.. Stevenson's supporters. how
ever, that a dark horse nominee
lis more likely to emerge in that
event, and Senator Symington
seems to come first to their
minds.
Repeat of '52 Seen
Rightly or wrongly. many
Democratic leaders feel that ever
if Senator Kefauver wins pri-
maries in Florida and California
he may be denied the nomina-
ition at the August party con-
Ivention here. They would look
for a repetition of 1852 events.
Four years ago, Senator Ke-
Ifauver led in the early ballotine
at the convention, but lost the
nomination to Mr.. Stevenson
who said he wasn't running fol
lit.
| Mr.. Stevenson is putting al
the chips down in an effort to
stop Senator Kefauver's popular
vote surge cold in the May Is
Florida and June S Californis
primaries.
!! While victories in those two
tests would put Mr.. Stevenson
back among the front runners
many politicians feel the polit-
ical wounds inflicted on him ir
Minnesota will weaken his
chances at the convention.
Symington on Sidelines
i Senator Symington, former
Secretary of the Air Force, has
kept to the sidelines thus far ir
the battle for the nomination
He has directed most of his
efforts into an attack on the
Eisenhower administrations de.

the United States is losing tc
Russia the race for air and mis-
sile supremacy.
Senator Symington's campaign
on this score doesn't seem tt
have caught on politically. But
more will be heard on the sub.
ject from a Senate Armed Serv.
ices subcommittee which Senator
Symington heads.
The Missouri Senator isn't re.
garded by his colleagues as any
stump campaign f1reball. Mo-
does he have any wide base o.
political support within the
party.
But all of this could change
quickly if former President Tru.

now domiciled in Worcester.
1t is always so pleasant to

Mrs. Ruth Batson, former

department head, has been
taking an active lead in the
Maiden school controversy
against a book which uses an
insulting racial epithet more
than $50 times, and is read
aloud in high school literature
classes. The NAACP, repre-
sented by Secretary Ed
Cooper, Atty. Herbert Tucker
and Mrs. Batson, among Others
all well known here, merely
wants to substitute books
more in keeping with better
race relations and understand
ing.
Meanwhile, the same work
