A Community Effort In producing the largest and best-attended horse show on the area “circuit” this fall, more than 200 Decatur merchants, businessmen, lawyers, doctors, and friends cooperated together in one of the best shows in a long time. Helped by a number of horse enthusiasts from this area, the merchants pulled together, and really put on a show. The purpose, to raise money for new Christmas lights in the business areas of Decatur, was widely supported. » Attendance, of course, is just a guess, because no one could get accurate figures with so many people, horses, etc. In fact, 167 horses actually were registered for the events, with many horses more present, but not entered when the depth of competition was seen. About SSOO was received in registration fees. The lady merchants set up a hot dog and ham sandwich stand, and sold more than S7OO worth — 60 pounds of ham sandwiches, thousands of hot dogs, etc. Nearly S6OO was received in 50c fees for adults, and swarms of children, and others who got through when so many cars were coming in that the attendants couldn’t check them all, raised the total present to an estimated 2,500. Yes, Decatur people really do a fine job when they all cooperate together for a big job. The general chairman, Feffis Bower, put in long hours of organizational work, and cajoled the other chairmen into quite an accomplishment! Outstanding was the work of George Litchfield,'who personally sold more than SI,OOO worth of ads for a small program printed and distributed at the affair. ... 'I The horse show certainly brought the attention of the horse lovers of the area to Decatur, and showed what the merchants of the city can do when - they put their heads together. Tfie members of sheriff’s posse, who helped the merchants, and especially Kenneth Secaur and Ed Gerbers, who worked hard before and during the show, are to be congratulated for wonderful show of community cooperation. After all, cooperation is the highest form of civilization, and takes a lot of “give and take” by those who take part. When a whole city can get together and put its back to the wheel as was done for the Decatur horse show, then the community can be justly proud. This will probably be the last horse show 7 at the old fair grounds, since' in the spring the ground' will revert to the North Adams Community Schools. Editorial written by : Dick Heller

Speculation Mounts On Nixon Candidacy

WASHINGTON (UPD—Weekend political developments increased speculation today over whether Richard M. Nixon is a candidate for the 1964 Republican presidential ndhnination. Nixon, who lost a close race to John F. Kennedy in 1960, said in Hershey, Pa., Saturday that he could not conceive of himself as the GOP nominee again next year. But the top contenders for the Republican nomination said they believed Nixon was a candidate, and political observers here refused to rule the former vice president out of the picture. The discussion of Nixon’s future shared top billing over the weekend with a new exchange between Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York and Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona, both unannounced candidates for the Republican nomination. Rockefeller, in a speech to the Western Republican Conference at Eugene, Ore., challenged Goldwater to a series of debates “to sharpen interest in the Republican party and what it stands for.” Nothing To Be Gained Goldwater, replying at a news conference at Eugene a few hours later, said that he saw “absolutely noth in g. to be gained by the proposal.” He said such debates might “tend to add to what little division there is in the Republican party.” Regardless of their differences about a debate. Rockefeller and Goldwater agreed in their belief that Nixon still remains very much in the presidential picture. Rockefeller said, “I think he’s a candidate. He has been making consistent comments on international affairs and taking a greater part in national and party affairs. He sounds like a candidate.” Goldwater said he had thought all along that Nixon was in the running for the GOP nomination. Goldwater said that “any man who lost the presii> -o 20 Years 4go Today 0 0 Oct. 14, 1943 — Little damage was caused when a candle in a "pumpkin face” lantern ignited the window sill at a Marshall street home.

dency by a fraction of a percentage point” should be considered a possible contender. Political observers here felt that it still was too early to assess Nixon’s impact on the 1964 presidential race. They said it would depend on whether the Goldwater boom continues. May Torn To Nixon If a deadlock should develop at the GOP convention and Goldwater is unable to muster enough votes to get the nomination, these observers said, the delegates might well turn to Nixon again. Nixon’s disavowal of any presidential intentions next year was supported by at least two major party figures. Former President Dwight D. Eisenhower us understood to feel that Nixon will not be a candidate again, although his former running mate, will maintain an active voice in party affairs. GOP National Chairman William E. Miller said in Eugene that he thought Nixon “says what he means and means what he says and is not a candidate.” “As I travel around the nation I find no semblance of effort for Dick Nixon — no one is committed to him, no one is getting delegates for him and no one is raising St single dollar for him,” Miller added. Nixon, attending a birthday party for Eisenhower in Hershey, said that if his name were offered in any state primary requiring the consent of the candidate, he would not give it.
