Old Campaign Phenomena Due Now

By Dick West United Pres* International WASHINGTON (UPD - The o'her day as I was listening to an album of old campaign songs I suddenly remembered that it was time for the recurrence of one of nature’s most remarkable phenomena. I refer to the quadrennial appearance of the hummers. The hummers are amateur songwriters who pop up across the land every four years in a manner somewhat similar to the emergence of the seven year locust. They were first isolated and iden ified in 1960 by the campaign publicity director for one of Control 4 kinds of cold miseries with this 1 new medicine!

It got o the point where he was almost a raid to answer his telephone lest there be a hummer on the line. Checks Committees Now that, another campaign summer has rolled around. I figured the hummers would be out again. So I paid a visit to the national committees of ‘he two major parties to see if any rare

Received Campaign Lloyd Wright, media coordinator at the Democratic National Committee, told me that as of July 31 his office had recevied about 50 unsoiica ed campaign songs. Some of them were delivered in person by composers who brought along a tape recorder and auditioned their songs right on Wright’s desk, using him as a captive audience. utner mailed In records, tapes and-or sheet music. Still others treated Wright to a telephonic concert, which is the traditional modus operand! of the hummer. Os the songs that I inspected, my favorite was "the Cowpoke Candidate,” the lyrics of which center off as follows: "Way down in Arizona, where a man’s his own blood donor ...” Appropriations Approved For Indiana Projects WASHINGTON (UPI). — The Senate Appropriations Committee Wednesday approved some $46.7 million for Army civil works projects involving Indiana for the fiscal year 1965.
