The registration will enable
the recreational director, Kenny
Chomo, to determine not only
the number who will participate,
but to obtain from the different
age groups the type of recrea-
ton they prefer, and thereby
gain information on the need for
the purchase of additional equip
ment.
The well-attended meeting of
the Youth Club, chaired by presi-
dent Wayne Higgins, correlated
the plans of the program COM
mittee with that of the finance
committee, with Phil Ward and
Andy Greenshield, respective
chairmen, attending and report
ing.
Youth league baseball, basket
ball, swimming two afternoons
a week, softball, plus recreations
preferred by registrants, will
comprise the main diversions on
the summer recreation program,
it was decided.
Interesting was the approval of
a motion, in response to a sug-
gestion that the Youth Club be
as self-supporting as possible, to
request from the Blackfeet Tri-
bal Council the right to install
a concession stand at the Indian
encampment grounds during the
All-American Indians celebra-
ton, to be worked by the parents
of the community
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Nom
berg were chosen to head the
responsibility for all phases Of
the concession stand, including
appointment of necessary COM
mittees and work schedules of
parents.
In this connection, as well as
for other business matters, mem
berS agreed to meet again Thurs
day, June %, at 7:30 p. m. at the
barracks building, at which time
attending parents can choose or
pick the hours they wish to help
in the money-raising activity.
Members also delegated jim
my Fisher to determine after the
registration the feasibility, along
with Chomo, of spending funds
to improve the tennis court inn
mediately north of the Tribal
office.

cerned. The Vice President
would not seriously expect to
do much good either in the
South or the Border States
with johnson at the head of
the Democratic ticket.
There is the possibility,
therefore. that this conven-
ton may require Nixon to
make quick and fundamental
alterations in his own plans.
Once before he has had to do
so. Gov. Nelson Rockfeller's
abrupt withdrawal last De-
cember from contention for
the Republican nomination
forced the Nixon Office to
Junk overnight an elaborate
pre-convention schedule
against Rockefeller.
The Vice President, one of
the most careful men in
politics. wants to have the in
slant information on which
to move instantly if he must
again alter strategic outlines
already Professionally laid
down against Kennedy. That
is why there are some dis
tinctly non-Democratic cha
racters on patrol in Los

Of the situation dictates that
he mention kindly a long list
Of possible running mates, in
cluding Senators Stuart SYM
ington, Hubert Humphrey,
Henry Jackson and Clair
Engle and Cows. Orville Free
man, Herschel LovelesS and
George Docking.
Politicians tend to reduce
the list to Senator'S Syming-
ton and Humphrey. Even If
Humphrey were more appeal
ing to the South, he is becom-
ing less available. He is GER
tain of reelection to the
Senate. but should a Ken
nedy-H Humphrey ticket lose,
he would be out in the cold.
Also, hard feelings left over
from the primary campaign
complicate the situation.
The extraordinary feature
of the maneuvers on the plat
form is that it is the South
which is trying to avoid the
battle. Liberals would well
come an extreme Southern
minority report on civil rights
which the convention would
be bound to reject quickly. In
the public hearings, that
veteran f1rebrand, Senator
James Eastland of MisSissip-
pi, sat on his hands.
The ball for the South in
the drafting committee is
being carried by an astute
former judge, Senator Samuel
Erwin of North Carolina, who
is trying to achieve language
which will not incite the
South. The sticking point is
what, if anything, is to be
said about the sitdowns.

WILLIAM S. WHITE

LOS ANGELES.-T The
keen eyes watching this
Democratic National Con-
vention are not all Demo-
cratic eyes.
Intelligence operatives
from the camp of Richard
M. Nixon. with their feet
in Los Angeles but their
hands on telephones link
ing Los Angeles to Washing
ton, are moving about here
to provide the Vice Presi-
dent at his Capitol Office
with a running fill-in of
inside dope.
Nixon agents, if not lurk-
ing behind every hotel pot
ted palm, are nevertheless
standing watch at every stra-
tegic spot. The large and
able Nixon staff has been
broken into two divisions.
One remains with the Vice
President himself at general
headquarters in Washing
ton. The other is directing
field work here.
The Los Angeles division
is intent on everything the
Democrats do or seem about
to do. But most of all a
picked squad is assigned to
keep intensive surveillance
over the Democratic Plat
form Committee.
A good many Democrats
themselves seem not to
know it. But Nixon we'll
knows that the nature of the
Democratic platform ulti-
mately adopted here is almost
as important to him, as the
prospective Republican Pres
idential nominee, as the
identity of the Democratic
nominee himself. This cor
respondent was frankly told
as much by Nixon spokes-
men back in Washington.
The Vice President for
months has based his whole
election campaign strategy on
the assumption that Senator
John F. Kennedy would
emerge here as the Demo-
cratic presidential choice.
The Nixon people still believe
Kennedy to be the favorite.
But they have thought it wise
to hedge a bit on the chance
that Senator Lyndon B.
johnson might work an upset
Evening star., 1960-07-11

The fact that most of them
dress for the part adds both
to the hypnosis Of it and
the irritation. 1t is impos-
sible to believe that this
creature, with tinted hair,
iridescent slackS, a gossa-
mer blouse, sandals and SUM-
glasses was but yesterday a
waitress in a Keotuk cafe,
or that this masculine dandy
with one of those four
hour tans out Of a cosmetic
bottle was but a bus boy
in the Temple to the Sun
Sandwich Shoppe.
The hotels are spread
around like raiSins in the
great sugared coffee cake of
a city. 1t takes a lot of time
to come and go short dis
tances. There are swearing
and damning that the con-
vention was ever established
here. But it is a show and
the city loves it. If there
we're some wet concrete in
which the delegates could
leave footprints, all would be
we'll.
But there isn't. And SO,
as the delegations arrive and
find their rooms, and rush to
caucuses, the Kennedy tide
repeatedly rolls on like Jor-
dan in one of the spirituals.
The consensus is that Mr..
Truman helped the Kennedy
cause more than he hurt it.
With all our money, we
couldn't have bought that
show" said a cool and con-
f1dent young man in the
Kennedy headquarters.

Quick Change Due in Campaign Plans

and 90 to advise Nixon in

ally would be asked to take
part by going into Dixie for
speeches in behalf of the
Nixon ticket. The President.
OF course, is a civil-rights
moderate. Nixon, too, leans
more in that direction than
toward extremiSm.
The estimate of the Nixon
forces has been that Kennedy
would be weak in the South
for two reaSons-the fact he
is a Catholic and the proba-
bility he would run on an
extreme Democratic civil
rights plank likely to be
adopted here. Nixon, in a
word, not only wants the
South, but comedies he well
might need it.
