Rockefeller's Non-Political Jaunt Causes Speculation
CONCORD, N.H. — (UFI) — Gov.
Nelson Rockefeller's "non-political"
weekend trip to New Hampshire and
Vermont left observers today with
the distinct feeling that he has
decided to enter the presidential race.
The New York chief executive me with GOP groups here, in Hanover and in Woodstock. Vt. In a windup to his trip which he said was made primarily to see his old Dartmouth classmates at a Saturday reunion.
The governor did visit with his classmates, some of whom are reportedly among the group demanding that he run for the Republican presidential nomination in 1960.
It would be hard to believe that the governor was entertaining no political ambitions beyond the state of New York. From the time he bounced off a plane to the blare of a brass band at Manchester Airport early Saturday until the minute he left for New York yesterday, there was a grin for all, a handshake for every adult within reach, and numerous pats bestowed fondly on the heads of little children.
But if he has made a decision, he gave no hint of this in his statements.
After meeting with a group of influential Vermonters yesterday, a prepared statement said "the governor indicated, as he has done on
That Fellow Doesn't Live Here
WASHINGTON — (UPI) — The Postal Service News says a letter addressed to the "occupant" of a home in Bethel Park, Pa., was returned recently to the post office with this notation:
"Refused - no person by that name lives here."
The eye and the bearing, the breath make it clear.

so many previous occasions, that until his legislative program is completed for next year, it would not be possible for him to determine his future political course."
In the two-hour meeting, Rockefeller said, the Vermont leaders questioned him about his experience in Washington and as the governor of New York.
As for the "Draft Rockefeller For President" group which opened headquarters here last week, the governor told them the same thing he told the Vermont Republicans. But he did nothing to discourage the "Draft Rocky" drive.
Vice President Richard M. Nixon will visit New Hampshire next week-end, to participate in the dedication of a new power dam at Hopkinton. His visit will undoubtedly prompt additional speculation in connection with the GOP presidential nomination, for which he appears to be the front runner.

Four Youths Lost in Rockies
GEORGETOWN, Colo. — (UPI) An organized search was launched at dawn today for four youths who played hooky to take a late season camping trip in the Colorado mountains.
Heavy snow has fallen in the area and the boys have not been reported seen since last Wednesday.
12 to 14, were feared lost in the Evergreen area, west of Denver.
The children, ranging in age from
The youths are Marty Pinger, 12; his brother. Mike. 13; Ray Robbs Jr., 14, and David Klein, 13. The Pinger boys and the Robbs child live in Englewood, Colo. The Klein boy lives in Littleton, Colo. Englewood and Littleton are Denver suburbs.
FASTER. FASTER!
College enrollment continues to spiral upward. The need for more classrooms and more teachers grows more desperate daily. But classrooms, alas, do not spring up like mushrooms—nor teachers like May flies. So what must we do while we build more classrooms and train more teachers? We must get better use out of the classrooms and teachers we now have. That's what we must do.
This column, normally a vehicle of good-humored foolery, will today forsake laughter to examine the crisis in higher education. My sponsors, the makers of Philip Morris Cigarettes, as bonny a bunch of tycoons as you will see in a month of Sundays, have given cheerful consent to this departure. Oh, splendid chaps they are—the makers of Philip Morris, fond of home, mother, porridge, the Constitution and country fiddling! Twinkly and engaging they are, as full of joy, as brimming with goodness, as loaded with felicity as the cigarettes they bring you in two handy packages—the traditional soft pack and the crushproof flip-top box.
How can we make better use of existing campus facilities? The answer can be given in one word—speedup! Speed up the educational process—streamline courses. Eliminate frills. Sharpen. Shorten. Quicken.
PHYSICS—Eliminate slow neutrons.
Following is a list of courses with suggested methods to speed up each one.
PSYCHOLOGY LAB-Tilt the mazes downhill. The white mice will run much faster.
ENGINEERING - Make slide rules half as long.
MUSIC — Change all temps to allegro. (An added benefit to be gained from this suggestion is that once you speed up waltz time, campus proms will all be over by ten p.m. With students going home so early, romance will languish and marriage counsellors can be transferred to the Buildings and Grounds Department. Also, houses now used for married students can be returned to the School of Animal Husbandry.)
ALGEBRA—If X always equals twenty-four, much time-consuming computation can be eliminated.
DENTISTRY—Skip baby teeth—they fall out anyhow.
POETRY—Amalgamate the classics. Like this:
Hail to thee blithe spirit
*Hail to the blithe spirit*
*Shoot if you must this old gray head*
*You ain't nothin' but a hound dog*
*Smiling, the boy fell dead*
You see how simple it is? Perhaps you have some speedup ideas of your own. If so I'll thank you to keep them to yourselves.

The Philip Morris Company, makers of Philip Morris, Marlboros and Alpine, have no interest in speedup. We age our fine tobaccos slow and easy. And that's the way they smoke - slow and easy and full of natural tobacco goodness.
