SUPPORT MORE VISIBLE:
Nixon gains on

Kelley and Griffin
campus start final campaign

By The Associated Press
They seldom wear campaign
buttons and their bumper stick-
ers do not stay in place for long,
but supporters of President Nixon
have' surfaced on college cam-
puses where they were not seen
four years ago.
"It is'becoming respectable to
support Nixon this year," ex-
plained Ray White, chairman of
the Nixon group at Stanford Uni-
versity.
At Harvard and Columbia, Wis-
consin and Michigan, places
where Nixon supporters main-
tained a very low profile during
the 1968 campaign and where
student unrest was strong, his
supporters now set up literature
tables and canvas dormitories
for pro-Nixon voters.
"I still get snide remarks and
funny looks when I wear a Nixon
button," said Bill Schuck, head
of Harvard-Radcliffe Students for
the Re-election of the President.
"But there is not the possibility
of physical harassment that ex-
isted a few years ago. Now it is
more social segregation."
Nixon workers at the Univer-
sity, of California in Berkeley-
120 persons in a student body of
28;000-last month set up a table
in Sproul Plaza to distribute cam-
paign literature. The plaza was
the birthplace of the free speech
movement and site of several
clashes between police and stu-

dents during the heyday of anti-
war activism.
"It is no fun being for Nixon
at Berkeley," said Steve Bur-
dette, a Nixon supporter. "You
are really in the trenches here.
You have to fight for the privi-
lege of advocating what you be-
lieve."
There has been no actual fight-
ing at the Nixon table, but there
have been frequent shouting and
shoving matches.
Where did Nixon's campus sup-
porters come from? Where were
they four years ago?
"It was socially unacceptable
to be for Nixon four years ago,"
said Burdette. "With the decline
of radical politics, it became ac-
ceptable. Nixon's policies have
had a lot to do with it. Even the
radicals have to admit he has
done some good thing%."
Nixon's trips to China and Mos-
cow and the virtual end of the
draft during his administration
repeatedly were cited by Nixon
partisans as actions viewed fav-
orably by their campus col-
leagues.
"People are becoming more
moderate, politically and in many
other respects," said Schuck.
"It -is part of a shift in their
over-all philosophy."
At Indiana University in Bloom-
ington, a basically conservative

campus with a patina of liberal-
ism, fear of Democratic presi-
dential nominee Sen. George Mc-'
Govern was credited with driving
many Nixon supporters into the
open.
Nixon workers on most cam-
puses conceded that a majority
of students will probably vote for
McGovern. But invariably they
added that more Nixon support-
ers than expected had been lo-
cated.
Every uranium atom that splits
in nuclear fission releases two or
three neutrons. One neutron may
split another uranium atom.
Therefore, uranium in fission may
produce enough neutrons to off-
set the loss of those which leak
out or are absorbed by impurities
or non-fission reactions. This is
called a chain reaction.

"man" County Board of Corn-
missioners has been expanded
to a 15 person board with 2

By The Associated Press
State Attorney General Frank
Kelley and Republican incumbent
Robert Griffin prepared themselves
for the final days of campaigning
in the state Senate race yesterday.
Hoarse and almost exhausted af-
ter a 16-hour day of campaigning,
Kelley late Tuesday night wound
up the outstate portion of his battle
for Griffin's U.S. Senate seat.
As he stood in the nearly de-
serted airport at Battle Creek,
Kelley said he thought the day's
campaign - which carried him to
Pontiac, Saginaw, Flint, Battle
Creek and Kalamazoo-had been a
success.
Kelley plans to concentrate the
final week of his campaign in the
southeastern area of the state.
In Detroit Tuesday Griffin de-
nounced as "another political ploy"

a challenge by Kelley to more de-
bates, similar to their confronta-
tion Monday at the Detroit Eco-
nomic Club.
Referring to that meeting, which
many observers judged a draw,
Griffin said, "I think if the debate
proved nothing else, it pretty well
established that we wouldn't need
15 or 20 of them."
Yesterday Republicans w e r e
charged with using a federal build-
ing dedication for political pur-
poses.
Griffin spoke at the dedication of
the new Patrick McNamnara fed-
eral office building in Detroit, but
Sen. Phillip Hart (D-Mich.) did not
appear, claiming he had been in-
vited too late. 'A Hart assistant
said he had "a lot of questions
about the motivation" for not in-
viting Hart to the ceremony until
Monday.
