Lloyd Bentsen spoke yesterday to a group of about 900 people at Truman High School in Independence, Mo. Bentsen says he's ready for fight By Barbara Joseph Kansan staff writer INDEPENDENCE, MO - Calling on the tradition of President Harry Truman, S. Lloyd Bentson of Texas said at Truman High School yesterday that he and Gov. Michael J. Trump were ready to lead the country. "Like Harry Truman, Mike Dukes is tough. he is smart, he works hard and is intelligent, he speaks the truth; and he loves America." Benton said. "He is a great leader." Benson also compared himself to Truman, who was vice president under Franklin D. Roosevelt and President when Roosevelt died in 1945. Bentsh, Democrat vice presidential candidate, spoke for about 10 minutes to a standing room-only crowd of about 90 students and others early morning at the university's dining hall and toronto. Morning classes at the high school were canceled because of the appearance. In a follow-up press conference, Bentsen was asked whether his speech was a direct message to the credibility of Republican vice presidential candidate Sen. Dana Quynel of Indiana candidate said he was concerned about Quysel's right blame and lack of experience. "Just as we expect a president to be qualified for office, so we have come to expect the same kind of qualifications as those who might — like Harry Truman — become president at a moment's notice. Like Harry Truman, I am ready — to help lead America into a new era of greatness." "He (Quagga) will need on-the-job training, but sometimes there isn't." Benten said. "let's hope nothing major happens. If they (George Bush and Quayle) were elected, I'd pray for the good health of George Bush every night." Bentsten said he thought voters were becoming more concerned about who would be elected vice president. He cited nine occasions in the last 30 presidents where the president had to step in for the president. He emphasized, however, that Dukakis wanted more than a back-up chef executive who sat on the side and served his team, going to investigate himself in the game. "Mike Dukakis wants his vice He declined to comment whether he would further challenge Qayle's credibility at the Oct. 5 debate in Omaha, Neb., saying he wouldn't. president to be a trusted adviser," Bentsen said. Principal LeRoy Brown recalled that Truman used every opportunity to talk to students about history. "He wants a vice president who would speak out when someone come up with a crazy idea like a Mystylah in exchange for hostages." "We are part of history this morning." he said. One Despite the speech's setting, Bent-sen did not focus on educational issues. However, he did take time to teach his students how to plan, which could help families set aside money for college tuition. He said it would not save families from financial stress. Bentsen said he had chosen to speak at the school, even though most students were not of voting age, because he wanted to emphasize future leaders the need for courage, dedication and commitment to the Candidate talks amid cheers at Missouri high school Kansan staff writer Rv Mark Fagan Campaign Fair 1988, a gathering of local politicians that originally was to begin tomorrow.

Lloyd Benson, D.Texas, visited theinden school yesterday morning. His visit was made on behalf of the students. we've been working all summer to get him (Benten) here." Bisaca said. "We tried to get him here for the fair on Friday, but he couldn't go there. We are going to Campaign Fair '88, with the climax on Friday." Students who had first period history classes or who were in the history club had the first two periods of the day off to listen to Bentsen's speech in the auditorium. Other teachers allowed their students to line the halls and stand outside to see the candidate. Bensen's entourage arrived at 8:37 a.m. amid student chants of "Lloyd." Lloyd? Chad McCann. Truman High freshman, had a rope-side spot with his team in red and blue. He held signs with "Lloyd" painted in red and blue. "They're our school colors." McCann said. "That's cool." Truman attendance secretary June Ahrens was not outside to see Bentons's arrival. She did, however, take a few minutes away from her work to watch the candidate walk by her office.
