? Democracy's Brightest Hour:
! Presidential Elections
*
\ By Clint Fuller
Part V
Two weeks from today,
Americans will to to the polls
to vote In what may be termed
one of the moat unusual Presi
dential Elections ? ever held.
Pour year* ago, almost no
one would have predicted that
the two candidates now running
would be the standard bearers.
The tragic death of John Ken
nedy, of course, altered the
course of the Democrats They
chose the obvious candidate,
Lyndon Johnson. If another
was ever mentioned, it escaped
all the news media and the pub
lic. '
The Republicans, four years
ago, had Richard Nixon; even
though defeated, he ran a good
race and was likely to be given
another chance. California got
him, when he was defeated for
governor by Democratic Pat
Brown. The GCP also had Nel
son Rockefeller and Henry Cab
ot Lodge. Barry Goldwater,
defeated soundly four years ago
In his bid, was an unlikely
prospect.
The fact that Goldwater was
selected by the Republicans Is,
to a degree, a sign of changing
tlmea. Whether there has been
enough change since 1980 to af
ford the GOP a victory In No
vember Is something one must
wait to see.
Whether a voter's preference
lies with the Democrats or with
the Republicans, they should
know something about the men
who are running. Here are

Film Revue
The Visit
Filmed In a small European
town In Italy, this story con
cerns a pretty) young girl
(Ingrld Bergman) Who might be
described as being from the
wrong side of the tracks.
Twenty-years later the rumor
gets around that Miss Bergman
has Inherited millions from
her husband's oil Interests and
Is returning to the town of her
childhood for the sole purpose
of restoring the town to pros
perity.
The great day dawns and the
entire town turns out with
"welcome banners" and pre
pared speeches, but secretly
they are all scheming how they
can get more than their sliare
of her millions.
Before the fan-fare Is over,
It Is evident she has other
Ideas and Anthony Quinn, a
former admirer, Is the object
of her revenge. Whether you
label It justice or injustice,
Miss Bergman' gets her re
venge.
By nothing do man show their
:haracter more than by the
hlngs they laugh at.

Hardest
It was a tavern where a new
ly-arrlver commercial travel
er was holding forth. "I'll
bet anyone five dollars,'.' he
said, "that I have got the hard
est name of anyone In this
room."
An old farmer In the back
ground shifted his feet to a
warmer part of the fender.
"Ye will, will ye?" he drawl
ed, "well, Til take ye on. 1*11
bet ye ten against your five that
my name'U beat yours."
"Cone," cried the com
mercial traveler, "I've got the
hardest name In the country.
It Is Stone."
The old man took a chew of
his tobacco. "Mine," he said,
"Is Harder."
The truth Is the last thing
most people want to hear.
