The fact that they are considered candidates is enough for the secretary of state to certify their names on the ballot. If they ask to have their names removed, the only grounds is that they do not intend to be a candidate. What did the Oregon primary prove? What everyone has suspected. The Republicans just don’t have a candidate for the presidency. Oh, Barry Goldwater is leading in delegate strength, and may very well get the nomination on the first or second ballot. The Republicans will have a candidate, all right — but he won’t be a very popular one. Oregon voters thoroughly repudiated Goldwater’s candidacy, as have the voters of every state where they have had much of a choice. They turned down the non-campaigning front-porch candidates of Nixon and Lodge, the 1960 standard-bearers. They accepted a forward-looking candidate, Gov. Nelson Rockefeller, who is probably to the left of Lyndon Johnson, politically. But the choice of the voters will have little affect on the convention. Delegates will choose; but the voters will have the final say in November. So much attention is being focused on the convention “hurdle,” that few Republican politicans are paying attention to the “guillotine” election just on the other side of the hurdle. And it will do little good to nominate a sure-fire loser. GoMwater ran a poor third in Oregon, with 18% of the Republican vote. He would probably get about 10' i of the Democratic vote in the north, and maybe 60% of the Republican vote in a showdown. He would get a much greater per cent of the Democratic vote in the south— in some of the states, such as Mississippi and Alabama, maybe even 50%, if no unpledged electors (which is likely) are on the ballot. Goldwater won’t come close to carrying the country 7 , in a popular election against President Johnson — in fact, he’ll be lucky if he gets the electoral vote of any state. He will not be able to count on any of the New England states, which are usually rockribbed Republican. His idea of war with Cuba, Red China, Russia, etc, will be very unpopular in the midwest, but in some of the plains states the Republican over-all normal majority might conceivably net him some electoral vote. All in all, the Republicans can look forward to another 1936 in 1964. With Goldwater, or any <M other conceivable combination. A Lodge-Nixon ticket, or Lodge-Scranton ticket, would probably run best.

to see him for final registration as soon as possible. Last minute details will be cleared up at this time concerning the courses for next year. — C. H.

catur were recognized, and next year’s seniors hope to improve that mark. — D. H. S. — To close a year of fun, hard work, and reform, the journalism staff of the Jacket Journal held a dinner at the Fairway Restaurant last Thursday. Agreeing on this one subject, all the members of the class and sponsor Mr. Butler were pleased with the teamwork and cooperation the staff had shown, each student playing his part in every edition. — D. H. S. — * While seniors and juniors were occupying them selves with* affairs other than classes last Friday, sophomores and freshmen rattled through the big halls of D. H. S. The seniors were in the auditorium taking achievement tests, and the juniors — well, they were busily decorating the Community Center, transforming it from the usual place to a “Fantasy of the Sea.” — D. H. S. — Speaking on “A Precarious Passage and a Promise" at the baccalaureate service last Sunday, Commander Weidler of the chaplain corps of the U. S. Navy challenged the seniors to strike out for life’s home port, even though it be across the stormiest of seas: a navigator need not fear as long as he has the stars, and a pilot in life is safe as long as he. is guided also by heavenly light. — D. H. S. — Boarding buses at ten o’clock this morning the seniors WN Ml carefree as possible to be just before commencement Ouabache park was their destination and the annual senior class picnic was their purpose, which they certainly achieved. Games, food, and just plain relaxation from the rigors of school and graduation festivities highlighted this event, which serves as either the last class party or the first reunion, whichever sounds better. — D. H. S. — Arotind the classes, in the halls, and out on the golf course, there will be something lacking next year: Two of the veteran D. H. S. teachers will be leaving the school. “Those who are to see Mr. Ketchum after the last period,” the standing announcement form for eighth periods, will not be used next year, because Mr. Ketchum, instructor of manual arts, retires at the end of this school year. Gone too, wi 11 be the familiar jokes about prodigious amounts of lab reports and the traditional admonition, "Be methodical,” when Mr. Dailey, head of the science department, moves to California. It is teachers like these two men who inspire students to pursue the ultimate cultivation of their talents and God-given powers. — D. H. S. — Although many adults look upon May as the begining of three glorious months for students with nothing better to do than lie around or go swimming, four hundred fifty students are enrolled in the D. H. S. summer school, many of the graduating seniors are planning schooling in other summer programs, and a high number of students have jobs already lined up. Times aren’t like they once were: a space-age nation must have progressive youth working hard all the time to better themselves. — D. H. S. — Closing my last column in my last year of high school, I would like to thank anyone and everyone associated with this column: the readers, who have watched my errors carefully and told me so, the whole staff of the Democrat, especially the typesetters, the ' faculty and student body of D. H. S., who have managed to keep the column full of worthwhile events, and certainly Mr. Butler and Miss Weidler. who proofread each item, and without whom the
