2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Monday, July 18, 1960 Kennedy can take the long, hard road to the nomination, by way of the presidential primaries, put in 18-hour day after 18-hour day trying to flush out voters, and still wind up looking fresh and relaxed. Well, moderately fresh and relaxed. There's not éven a suggestion, in Kennedy's public appearances, that here's a cool calculator of the odds, but one who also is will- ing to take daring political gam- bles if the stakes are large enough. EASY MISTAKE It's easy to underestimate Jack Kennedy. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts did it. In 1952, Lodge looked certain to keep his seat. But Kennedy, then a rela- tively unknown congressman, put on a whirlwind campaign to win in a year when Republicans everywhere were sweeping into office. Senator Hubert Humphrey of Minnesota underestimated Jack Kennedy. Wisconsin is farm territory and : By ARTHUR EDSON LOS ANGELES (AP)--In the long and exciting history of U.S. politics, there never has been anything quite like it. John Fitzgerald Kennedy, in winning the Democratic nomina- tion for president at 43, ignored rules, precedents and advice in pushing through to his spectacu- lar victory. By his own calculations, Ken- nedy has been openly and un- abashedly seeking the presidency for four years. It is evident that while his Democratic fores were still fumbling around in their minds as to what they should do, Kennedy already was putting down the foundations that would bring him victory. The picture he presents comes through like this: Nice young Harvard man, Shy smile. Nice family. Boyish, even though now he wishes he looked a bit more mature. Lively, but still apparently relaxed.

Mr. Eccles' story brought two results: 1. Frank Howard (Skeena), one of two CCF MPs conducting a filibuster in the Commons that has piled up some 450 divorce bills on the order paper, said Saturday he will propose on Tuesday that consideration of di- vorce bills end until a Commons committee clears up the ques- tions of collusion and perjury raised by Mr. Eccles' story. 2.

TROUD' 54 SIMCOE NORTH Valerie and five other children were injured Saturday, on a farm at Lake Dore five miles south of here, when a can con- taining dynamite caps exploded sending fragments of steel flying in all directions. The children thought the can contained nails and Valerie tossed the container up against a shed wall in an attempt to open it. Less seriously' injured were Valerie's brothers, Randolph, 6, and Lance, 3, and Donald Mor- ben, 6, and his sisters Catherine, , and Susan, 3.
