All but one of the 88 people aboard survived in the inky waters. One wing was on fire when a Northwest Orient Airlines plane carrying 58 people ditched off the Polillo Islands about 85 miles northeast of Manila, U.S. amphib- ous planes picked up 57 surviv- ors and the body of one woman passenger and brought them to Manila. One survivor was re. ported badly injured. Eight minutes before, a Phil- ippine Airlines DC-3 had ditched in shallow water near Duma- Buetle, off Negros Island in the |southern Philippines. The plane was bound from Manila for Zam- |boanga City, but bad weather prevented a landing. The pilot ran out of gas. The 27 passen- gers and three crew members all reached shore safely.

Even ¥ Democratic national convention and Missouri nomination be made unanimous, some southern delegates said out- along with the choice. In an attempt to placate south. erners threatened to walk out in Kennedy might turn to Senator Stuart Symington of Missouri as his running mate. SEEN ACCEPTABLE Symington, who mustered 86 votes to Kennedy's winning 845, is regarded as acceptable to the South. "We shall carry the fight to the people and we shall win," the 43-year-old Kennedy said after he hurried to the convention hall to receive the adulation of a wildly cheering audience of some 19,000 persons and make a brief speech. For Kennedy it was an easy walkaway. It took 761 votes to win. Wyom- ing pul Kennedy over the hump. Far behind came the men who never really had a chance. Senator Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas, a wizard at controlling the Senate as its majority leader, couldn't control the convention. But -the tall Texan took it | gracefully. He said he accepted |the decision of the convention "with all my heart." Symington hoping to the last for a Kennedy-Johnson standoff that never came ahout, didn't get his candidacy off the ground.

Take the Democrats' method of selecting their standard-bearer-- wow! At times they seemed to howl like mad dogs; parade like primi- tives and perform the pranks of children, And yet somehow the din and ritual made sense. Through the repeated waves of organized hysteria there seemed to be a determination to fight the imposition of central control; a will to express the freedom of choice. Not that there was much ques- | tion Wednesday night of the nom- inee. Jack Kennedy 'walkéd away with the prize in a crushing, first- ballot victory that gave him more Many were cajoled by a skil- fully devised and deployed organ- ization. They had to be persuaded. Kennedy is a Roman Catholic. He is only 43; too young, some of his detractors said. Among their other belittlings: He hadn't en- tered all the primaries. He shifted position over the years on major issues, He' was too rich. He was the son of Joseph P. Kennedy, once stamped an isolationist and| appeaser. Some delegates had to be shoved, by that same relentless Kennedy organization. The candi- date himself could not convince them, not until pressed to stay in line or shown that the Kennedy parade was passing them by. By the time the convention opened Kennedy was assured the It was the Democrats, too, who tried and faltered with another Catholic, Alfred E. Smith, in 928.

It was just a question of which state would claim the honor of placing the party's highest prize in his hands. Wyoming did it, v.'th four votes to spare. Din, Chaos At Convention votes than even he had expected. But there were some uneasy moments, especially when Adlai Stvenson's name came up. You could sense the drama buildin; up. Stevenson had a lot of local support. They were mainly in: the packed galleries and the streets. But they were well organized and they wanted to be heard. More than that, they wanted to set off an emotiogal stampede in the convention pi why the hope that delegates might suddenly change their decisions and vote for Stevenson, It didn't come off, but there was a moment of peril when Florida Governor Leroy Collins, the eon- vention chairman, protested that the parade was turning into hood- lumism, "This demonstration must be stopped," he shouted after 27 min- utes of placard-waving, paradiftg and shouting. "You are injuring the cause you are seeking by this demonstration. 'You want 'his name associated: with . hoodlum- ism? Stop the music; stop the band." Collins might as well have been talking to himself. Converging onto the arena floor from several entrances, the Stevenson fans kept shouting "We want Stevens son, we want Stevenson." DISPLAY THEIR CARDS Their shouts "and sentiments were echoed in the convention galleries where a big portion .of some 10,000 spectators suddenly displayed huge placards that had not been there before. Collins, in desperation, ordered the lights be dimmed. The howl. ing mob booed in protest. Info their weaving, pushing parade their tossed a huge white globe about six feet in diameter. Made of light material, it was rolled over the heads of delegates. Some didn't see it coming and fell «to the floor in surprise as the big ball rolled towards them. (: i i ke i pei mam a. ---- Ee
