Wallace Says Polls Rigged For Nixon
ALBANY, N. Y. <A>) _ George
C. Wallace charged Wednesday
that Richard M. Nixon is in ca
hoots with the Gallup Poll and
said the national public opinion
polls are rigged.
Wallace called for a congres
sional investigation of the pro
fessional polltakers, who he said
are controlled by the Eastern
moneyed interests.
The third-party presidential
challenger predicted the next ma
jor poll will show that he has lost
ground to Republican Nixon. He
offered this explanation at a rally
of 5,000 in Scranton, Pa., elab
orating at an airport news con
ference in Albany later:
“Mr. Nixon said in Michigan
the other day Gov. Wallace is
beginning to lose some of his sup
port — and the reason for that is,
Mr. Nixon knows what the Gal
lup Poll is going to say in
advance.
“Because they are for Mr. Nix
on. And we ought to have a
Congressional investigation of
these professional pollsters in the
country.”
A spokesman for Gallup said
in Princeton, N. J., that there was

no truth whatsoever to Wallace’s
charges.
“The Gallup Poll has never
done any work for any party or
candidate,” he said. “We’re fact
finders. We report the facts as
we find them.”
It was not known whether Wal
lace had had a pre-publication
look at the next Gallup or Harris
polls. They are distributed to
news media in advance 6f publi
cation date and frequently the
word gets out.
“In my judgment,” Wallace
complained as he arrived for a
rally on the capitol grounds
here, “this Eastern moneyed in
terest crowd has controlled the
polls, and ought to be investi
gated in the next Congress, be
cause they are trying themselves
to elect candidates by molding
public opinion, by trying to point
out a winner.
“But they’re not going to get
by with that.”
On questioning, Wallace iden
tified the Eastern moneyed in
terests as the multibillion-dollar,
tax-exempt foundations that he
condemns in virtually every cam
paign speech.

NEW YORK <A>) _ Hubert H.
Humphrey said Wednesday “I
feel a little sad” at Sen. Eugene
J. McCarthy’s refusal to endorse
him for the presidency.
Humphrey said, however, “I’m
not prone to start meeting condi
tions. I state my own case.”
The vice president’s comment
at an airport news conference
apparently referred to McCar
thy’s statement ■ Tuesday night
that he would not endorse Hum
phrey at this time, but that there
were conditions he hoped Hum
phrey would adopt.
McCarthy called for a shift in
Vietnam war policy, a restruc
turing of the draft system and
reform of the Democratic party
machinery.
While flying from Boston to
New York to accept the state’s
Liberal party presidential nomi
nation Humphrey told newsmen

sized.
Fenner in turn announced the
appointment of Sawyer, Jack
Bradshaw, W. Taylor Riedel and
Dr. Luther Jones a s associate
campaign directors.
Sawyer, vice president of Uni
versity National Bank, will head
the drive among local business
establishments. Bradshaw, an of
ficial of the state’s Agricultural
Stabilization & Conservation Com
mittee, will coordinate activities
among federal agencies.
Riedel, superintendent of the
A&M Consolidated Independent
School District, will direct the
drive in the school system and
Dr. Jones, retired A&M agron
omy professor, will be campaign
representative for retired per
sons.
Sharing agencies and the a-
mounts they are to receive from
the 1968 College Station United
Chest are:
College Station Community
House, Inc., $2,500; College Sta
tion Recreation Council, $2,500;
Boy’s Club of America (Bryan),
$3,000; Brazos Valley Rehabilita
tion Center, $3,000; Brazos Coun
ty Counseling Service, $2,500;
Salvation Army, $1,350.
Girl Scouts Area Council,
$2,800; Boy Scouts of America,
$3,000; American Red Cross,
$3,500; Texas United Fund, $100;
United Service Organization
(USO), $300; Traveler’s Aid of
America, $50; United Cerebral
Palsy of Texas, Inc., $200; Girl’s
Club of Brazos County, $1,500;
and Texas Association of Mental
Health, $450.
The last three organizations on
the list are additions.
Remaining $750 in the 1968
budget covers campaign expendi
tures and is the same amount
approved last year, Schleider
pointed out.
He said the board unanimously
approved the allocations as sub
mitted by the organization’s Bud
get and Admissions Committee
headed by Dr. Charles Hall.
The board is fully aware of
the substantial increase in the
budget,” Schleider noted, “and is
confident that when the people
of College Station become aware
of the various agencies’ needs,
they too will feel that the re
quests are reasonable and neces
sary.”
Students are urged again this
year to help ease parking prob
lems created at home football
games.
They have been requested to
remove their cars Saturday from
several lots in the immediate
vicinity of Kyle Field to help pro
vide ample parking facilities for
visitors attending the A&M-Tech
game.
Security Chief Ed Powell asked
students to remove their cars by
10 a.m. Saturday.
Parking lots needed for Sat
urday’s game include Lots 9, 30,
31, 48 and 49, which provide
nearly 2,000 spaces, Powell
pointed out.
Students, however, will not be
without adequate parking facili
ties. Powell said they may park
in space available north of Ross
and east of Houston, as well as
along the streets in these areas.
Lots also available for students
asked to remove their cars are 4,
5, 7 and 8.
While all cars should be re
moved by the 10 a.m. deadline,
Powell added, “it does not mean
that a student attending the
game with his family or friends
cannot compete for space later
in the day.”
Powell said home games de
mand “a lot of cooperation on the
part of everyone” and called for
“good sportsmanship both on the
field and off.”

First Open House
For Saturday
“Rods, gears and wheels” de
scribes the theme of School of
Architecture’s first public exhi
bit of the academic season.
On display are a combination
of 16 prints of vintage automo
biles and steam tractors, relics
of logging locomotives and a 1927
model of a Studebaker.
Open house Saturday will be
from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The classic autos and tractors,
eight of each, are “graphic in
representation and are superb
line drawings,” Architecture Asst.
Prof. John J. Exley and exhibit
chairman said.
The “HO” gauge brass logging
locomotives are of the type used
in the Northwest at the turn of
the century. They are wood and
oil type engines.
The Studebaker model was
made from a single piece of pine
by Exley’s uncle, Robert Exley.
“It is fully sprung with work
able steering mechanism,” Exley
pointed out.
The committee expects to have
changing exhibits weekly.

Wood, Anthony Caporina and R.

and George G. Wallace, and said
someday they might be called
“President Agnew” and “Presi
dent LeMay.”
“It could happen,” Humphrey
said in reminding the liberal audi
ence that either Republican Gov.
Spiro T. Agnew of Maryland or
retired Air Force Gen. Curtis
LeMay would be only a heartbeat
away from the presidency if the
Democratic ticket is defeated.
Humphrey then praised his own
running mate, Sen. Edward Mus-
kie of Maine, saying: “I have
never had to draw Ed Muskie
kicking and screaming back into
the mainstream of my own cam
paign — or into the 20th century.
And to borrow the language of
Madison Avenue, no other presi
dential candidate can make that
claim.”
