Some Os GOP Leaders Still Seek Candidate • - WASHINGTQN (UPD — Uncommitted segments of the .Republican party displayed growing curiosity today about Pennsylvania Gov. William W. Scranton as a presidential possibility. But those Republican leaders 1 still searching for a candidate 1 for the nomination felt that the situation remained too fluid to visualize how it might crystalize by national convention time in July. There was no evidence of any significant crumbling of support for Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona in Southern and farm ’ states regarded as solid Goldwater territory. His backers are not convinced, yet at least, that he was seriously hurt by the political shifts caused by the death of Pres. Kennedy. ■ These varying Republican at- • titudes were apparent among GOP state chairman and Nar tional Committee members attending a four-day series of meetings to plan for the 1964 campaign. Goldwater and Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York are the only announced candidates J for the presidential primary contests. If Rockefeller should be counted out before the convention, forhner i Vice President Richard M. Nixon and Scranton are regarded as likely favorites of ■ the Republican foes of the Conservative Goldwter. Scranton lacks some of the ; political scars Nixon has accu- ■ mulated but he also lacks the national reputations claimed by Nixon, Goldwater and Rocke- ; feller. I Because Scranton may > emerge as a serious contender, ■ many of the Republicans are anxious to know more about him. He is scheduled to visit Washington tonight for a meeting , with the Pennsylvania congressional delegation and is expected to see some of the party leaders during an overnight stay. The state chairmen conclude their two-day session on campaign organization today and three convention planning com- , mittees also meet today. The Republican National Committee meets Friday and Saturday. White Has A Top Spring Favorite By GAY PAULEY UPI Women’s Editor NEW YORK (UPD — Everyone in the fashion world is dreaming of a white Easter. White is for coats, for suits, for dresses, for evening wear, for accent touches. And, it’s for millinery. The Millinery institute of America at its spring preview this week observed that the white hat is “a runaway favorite” in a season “when just about everything chic is snow white.” Two types of white showed at the industry’s show—the Qrisp, chalky white and the natural, creamier one, both fashioned in a variety of smooth and roughtextured straws, shiny and dull finishes, and of sheer or opaque fabric. Black was seen rarely except in black and white combinations. The institute is an auxiliary member of the New York Couture Group, which is one of two organizations staging a weeklong series of showings of spring and summer apparel to the nation’s visiting fashion reporters. The other is the American Designer Series. White dominated the millinery collections, but to go with it there were flamboyant pastels with yellow a strong favorite. There were bold greens, peach 4 toned oranges, sharp pinks and blues ranging from turquoise ’to the pale and icy tints. The big hat makes a comeback for spring. Some brims were eight inches wide. Prevent Book Soil ~' When using a book where it may become soiled, rub the cover with waxed paper. The resultant invisible film of wax will repel moisture and make it easier to keep the book clean.
