Just 36 hours after Ford nom- inated him for the vacant vice presidency, the former New York governor flew from his vacation retreat in Seal Harbor, Maine, to address some 350 Re- publicans at a $100-a-plate din- ner at this seaside resort. ARRIVING at nearby Provi- dence, Rockefeller greeted Re- publican gubernatorial nominee James Nugent and former GOP governor John Chafee with bear- hugs before marching to an air- port fence to greet some 100 welcomers. "So nice to see you," he de- clared, grasping hands and sign- ing autographs in the style that has marked his past bids for national office and his four win- ning campaigns for governor of New York.

ASKED about his plans if con- firmed as vice president, Rocke- feller said, "I'll do evertyhing I can to support President Ford -that's my only job.," Although his own campaign- ing plans are unsettled pending congressional action on his nom- ination, Rockefeller said that when he does bit the campaign trail, "I'll campaign for people but not against anybody." After a 40-minute drive from Providence, the Rockefeller en- tourage was greeted by two crowds of demonstrators among some 200 persons at the gates of Ms. John Slocum's estate, where the dinner was held. ONE group, critical of Rocke- feller's approval of liberalized abortion legislation, c a r r i e d signs including "Abort Rocky." The other group criticized the C~~en a R 08Lc Probably not. All things considered you do what you do pretty doggone well. After all, no one has taken yourjob. And you're eating regularly. But... But have you ever considered what doing your job just a little better might mean? Money. Cold hard coin of the realm. If each of us cared just a smidge more about what we do for a living, we could actually turn that inflationary spiral around. Better products, better service and better management would mean savings for all of us. Savings of much of the cash and frayed nerves it's costing us now for repairs and inefficiency. Point two..By taking more pride in our work we'll more than likely see America regaining its strength in the competitive world trade arena. When the balance of payments swings our way again we'll all be better off economically. So you see-the only person who can really do what you do any better is you.

Both in Providence and as he made his way through a crust of guests and reporters to the tent covering the dinner area here, Rockefeller said he wasn't taking anything for granted as far as his confirmation by Con- gress was concerned "in a de- mocracy where people vote." Rockefeller was substituting for Ford, who had accepted an invitation to speak here before he assumed the presidency 12 days ago. The dinner to bene- fit GOP congressional and state candidates in this heavily Dem- ocratic state was Rockefeller's first political appearance since his nomination. Democratic Gov. Philip Noel is heavily favored for a second two-year term against Nugent, an insurance e x e c u t i v e who served as state GOP finance chairman. Neither of Rhode Island's two Democratic senators is up for election this year. Reuther declared ..iner (Continued from Pae1 to be absolutely sure who won," Reuaher and Pierce declared yesterday in a joint statement. "BOTH OF us, before any- thing else, want to be absolutely positive that every citizen who voted had his ballot counted as he cast it, and that the one of us who actually got the greater number of votes won," they added. The final totals show that Reuther, nephew of the late United Auto Workers President Walter Reuther, drew heavy support in Wayne and Monroe Counties but trailed Pierce in Washtenaw County by more than two to one. Pierce, a long time Ann Arbor Democrat who gave up a private medical practice to found the low-cost Summit Street medical center, handily won the city and the county. The unofficial results showed Reuther leading Pierce by only 69 votes. Minor clerical errors on election night accounted for the discrepancy with the final figures, but such variances are common. Both candidates ran similar campaigns stressing tax reform, re-allocation of federal funds from defense spending to social service programs, and stricter campaign financing laws, However, Pierce is considered to the left of Reuther on issues such as amnesty for draft evad- ers and busing. The official results in the con- test are: Reuther 13,003; Pierce 12,922; Eastern Michigan Univer- sity professor Marjorie Lansing 7,698; Ypsilanti Asst, City At- torney Ronald Egnor 6,219; and retired engineer Theo Williams 1,457.
