BALTIMORE, June 81 (API.
Senator Kennedy, Democrat Of
Massachusetts,, has more open
support among Maryland dele
gates to his party's National
Convention than any of his
rivals for the presidential
nomination, an Associated Press
survey showed today.
AS winner of the states
Democratic primary, Senator
Kennedy is assured of the
States "a votes on the first
ballot. But the delegates are
not bound by the primary after
the first ballot if it appears
Senator Kennedy no longer has
a change to get the nomina-
ton. t
A poll of the 71-member dele
cation drew 48 responses to
these questions:
l. Who are your first three
choices for the nomination?
2. Who do you think will
win the nomination?
Kennedy First With rs
Senator Kennedy was named
as the first choice of 26 dele
CATION members, with Adlai
Stevenson and Senator Stuart
Symington each named by
eight.
Senator Lyndon B. johnson
was next with three, and three
members said they were still
undecided.
Of the 48 replying to the
QUESTIONABLE, % members said
they believed Senator Kennedy
will get the nomination of the
convention, which opens July
IL in Los Angeles.
-Four said they would bet on
Mr.. Stevenson, three on Sen
ator johnson and two on Sena-
tor Symington. Another called
it an even affair between Sen
ator johnson and Senator Ken
nedy and two said they think
it's a Johnson -Symington toss
up. Two wouldn't hazard any
guess.
Besides being the first choice
of 26 delegates and alternates
Senator Kennedy was named
the second choice Of eight anc,
the third choice of seven.
Senator johnson was the sec
ond pick of IA and the thirt,
of 8.
Senator Symington also go,

HENRI ROUSSEAU was a
customs or a postal clerk in
Paris. Every Sunday he
would go to the Paris Zoo or
that wonderful sylvan park,
the Bois de Boulogne.
He bought himself some
canvas and a Stretcher and
an easel and a palette and
tubes of paints.
He painte e d n OF from
sketches nor memory, but
from imagination.
Africa was one of the mys-
terry regions of the world in
that day. A famous French
explorer, Du Chaillu, was in
teresting the entire world
with his book on Darkest
Africa"
Henri Rousseau had never
been to Africa, never was to
go there. But he painted the
African jungle of his imagi-
nation.
He could not speak or read
English. But he must have
read William Blake in trans
-"Tiger, tiger burning
brightiIn the forests of the
night"
Because he painted such
a tiger looking out from the
jungle fronds.
You had better be careful
to select the right wines at
Paul Young's new restaurant,
or that tiger may peer into

too new, too freshly pressed
At last it came to him -

not polite to check the hall

resist the temptation.

Court-MartiaI
ScoIded for
Loaded Talks

An airman's convictions for
larceny. desertion and forgery
were reversed here yesterday
because members Of his court
martial board had received a
lecture on cutting down bad
check cases.
The reversal was handed
down in a 2-1 decision of the
Court of Military Appeals in
the case Of Airman Harry F.
Olson. jr., Of Park Ridge, Ill.
Olson was convicted by an Air
Force court martial board at
Naha, Okinawa, in February,
1859.
The Appellate Court said it
has in the past sought to main
tain a delicate balance be-
tween justice and discipline"
Scales Can Be LOADED"
what a few commanders
fail to realize, however, is that
the scales always become
loaded against justice when
lectures attended by court
members involve extended dis
cussion Of offenses identical or
closely related to those for
which an accused is shortly to
be tried"
The opinion added that in
such instances the respect for
command authority ingrained
in the average officer predis-
poses him to Judge the accused
in the light of the needs of
the service rather than impair

and the evidence"
The court said that the rec

q letter from the acting COM
mander of the Air Forces 313th
Air Division calling for prompt
and appropriate disciplinary
action" against those in the
command who write bad checks.
Also Lectured
And the opinion also recalled
that the president Of the court
martial board, the day before
Olson's trial, presented a
pointed lecture" to officers
under his command-including
five Of the court-martial mem
bers-setting forth the need to
take positive action against bad

said the result of such in
