And that remains his position, at least in the sense that he, will not seek delegate commitments. But at a news conference in Chicago Saturday Ford signalled a change in strategy when he said: "The Vice President and I will conduct our efforts in the months ahead, the Vice President seeking his delegates and I seeking mine." Although that statement was an imprecise report on Rockefeller's plans, it did reflect the consensus in the Ford camp that the Vice President needs to strengthen his position among those who will be asked to ratify Ford's choice at the convention.
One conservative Ford adviser urging Rockefeller to show himself is Richard L. Herman of Nebraska, a member of the planning committee for the Presidential campaign headed by Dean Burch. He said he considered it "imperative" that Ford seek support as a candidate actively because "the President has never gone before the convention delegates himself" in the past. At the same time, Herman said, Rockefeller should "obtain similar support" if he wants to be approved for the ticket. Herman is one of those Ford Republicans-and this is not a unanimous view by any means who believe Rockefeller can make himself palatable to party conservatives if they get to know him better.
"My guess is that he will be favorably received, the Nebraska leader said. "Right now he wouldn't be received probably as well as some other individual who had the reputation of being more conservative." This was a reference to former California Governor Ronald Reagan, who has given his tacit approval to a presidential campaign in his behalf but is also being ad-vanced by some rightist Republicans as the alternative to Rockefeller. The Vice President's travel plans seem to give the lie to suggestions in party circle that he doesn't really want another term. However, on two occasions the P-w 1959 and 1968-he abandoned campaigns for presidential nominations when similar testing of the winds evoked hostile responses from party regulars. Rockefeller intimates now describe him as relaxed in the role as "standby equipment" that he once disdained citing his recent wisecrack that "it's not much of a job but it where the action is." 1975 Washington Star WASHINGTON Under subtle but genuine pressure from the White House, Vice President Nelson A.
Rockefeller is planning "extensive" political campaigning in the next few months to strengthen his position among Republicans as a potential running mate for President Ford next year. Rockefeller has no intention of conducting a delegate search. That would be unprecedented for a Vice President, and it could be expected to evoke a backlash among party conservatives. But he does intend to carry out a de facto sales campaign to make it easier for Ford to choose him for another term without splitting the party at the national convention in August. "What he is doing," a Rockefeller adviser said, "is demonstrating that he's not wearing horns." Rockefeller's campaigning will be done in the name of shoring up the anemic Republican party and raising money.
But Ford's political advisers are' making it clear, both publicly and privately, that they consider it essential that the New Yorker make himself more widely acceptable -within the party. Rockefeller already has begun making it a practice to combine official travel with private meetings with local Republican leaders. In Atlanta last week, for example, the Vice President met with four governors in his capacity as chairman of the National Commission on Water Quality, then held two sessions with Republicans one with conservative leaders of the regular organization there and the other with moderate dissidents. Tuesday he will appear at a session of the Midwest Governors' Conference in Cincinnati, then confer privately with Ohio Republican leaders. A similar trip to Pittsburgh is scheduled next Friday.
Later in the year Rockefeller plans a heavy schedule of appearance at party functions. The Republican National Committee will finance the political share of his travel just as it has done for Ford in the last few months. "It's going to be pretty extensive," an adviser said. "It will take him all over the country." The impetus for Rockefeller's de facto campaign has come from Ford himself and the leadership of his own campaign for renomination. At a meeting last Friday both Ford and Howard Callaway, his campaign manager, urged Rockefeller to take to the road, and shortly thereafter the Vice President's staff was told this was his intention.

One of the Marines in the second car was trapped in the vehicle, his foot wedged against the brake pedal, Cox said.
Nixon ordered one of the Secret Service agents to get a crowbar from his' car to free the man. Cox said that as he, his wife and Nixon left the accident scene, the former president "looked out the window and said, 'You know, those two fellows were going off the base and looking forward to a good time. They were in their dress blue The former president was concerned about the two men and called the camp commander "first thing in the morning" to learn of their conditions, Cox said. Bystanders at the crash recognized Nixon but paid no special attention to him as they worked to aid the victims, Cox said. When Nixon and the others left, a warrant officer and a captain saluted and shook his hand, he added.

Larry W. Grrise, 24, San Clemente, Calif. MOSCOW (AP) Svetlana Leonov was sitting tensely in front of the television set, waiting to watch her husband hurtle into space, when the telephone rang. "Svetlana, you missed everything again," said the faint voice of Soyuz commander Alexei Leonov. "What did I miss? There's been no broadcast yet," exclaimed his slim, brown-haired wife.
"Why, didn't you know, we're already flying," replied her "You see, he even jokes minutes before starting his mission," Mrs. Leonov laughingly recalled in an interview with The Associated Press. The balding cosmonaut, known for his wit and ready laughter, had phoned his wife shortly before the blastoff of his Soyuz ship, which docked Thursday with the American spaceship Apollo. Leonov's wife, dressed in a plaid blouse and white skirt, and Cosmonaut Valeri sov's auburn-haired wife, in a white blouse and brown skirt, relinquished their anonymity briefly to talk about their husbands, children and themselves. The cosmonauts have become well-known men in both the Soviet Union and United States, but like other Soviet spacemen's wives, Svetlana Leonov and Lyudmila Kuba-sov are public unknowns.
Both, however, have careers of their own. Mrs. Leonov is an editor, Mrs. Kubasov an aeronautical engineer. Their personalities are not unlike those of their husbands.

Nixon was "really affected" by the tragedy of a fatal traffic accident he happened upon, his son-in-law says. But Edward Cox also said Nixon still was able to take charge of unsuccessful attempts to save the lives of three Marines who died in the smashup. "It really affected him. The tragedy of it really struck him," Cox said Friday in a telephone interview. Nixon, his daughter, Tricia, and Cox were returning to the former president's estate at nearby San Clemente from the golf course at Camp Pendleton when they came to the scene of the head-on collision that claimed the lives of the three Marines.
Nixon ordered his car stopped and spent about an hour at the accident scene, trying to aid the three servicemen, Cox said. Cox said the accident occurred about two minutes before Nixons' car reached the scene Thursday afternoon. Secret Service agents accompanying Nixon were going to pass by the wreckage "but the president saw the accident and said right away, 'Stop. Stop the car." Cox said a warrant officer was directing the rescue attempt and that Nixon asked him, "Can we give you any help? We've got first aid equipment." "Yes sir, we sure can use that," the officer replied. Cox said Nixon then took charge of the rescue attempts and ordered the Secret Service agents to call for a medivac helicopter to aid two Beauty Queens Being Judged SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador CAP) Beauty queens from 71 nations today enter the finals of Miss Universe competition pageant to be televised internationally from this central American nation.
