12 Inquirer editor and ex-HEW official Creed Black focuses on the erosion of the 2nd term's bright hopes. "So what might been will never be. Sad words indeed. for RN and for the US. 11 ABC w/film from Colorado said VP's event-filled days may have another impact besides helping GOP in '74 build up credits for VP for a '76 run w/him increasingly acting as tho he'd consider it. Reporter also noted Veep trying to "balance on a thin line" between all-out backing of RN and the independent stance he needs were he to have to take over and hold support for himself. Clip of VP saying head-to-head confrontation over tapes wouldn't be advisable and could heighten impchmnt pressure. "His Wife Now OKs VP as Candidate" tops Beale column leading off an inside section of Inquirer. "The Watchful Mr. Ford" tops O'Rourke feature in Bulletin which finds US, Hill and WH are beginning to get the message that he is his own man. But he's also been a loyal RN soldier during these "dreadful days' for RN which have simultaneously been "richly rewarding for VP. Qualities of sincerity, honesty and straight/ forwardness are stressed. And O'Rourke suggests, as are others, that VP may be, w/the CRP speech and his son's comments, indi- cating a growing independence from RN. "VP Shows He's His Own Man" tops favorable profile by Harriet Van Horne who saw the CREEP speech as that of a "lion" and "publicly severing the ties that bound him to Oval Office He's not only rebuking RN; he's saying: 'Methinks already I behold thee slain. 111 The long-time vitriolic Admin critic is ready for the VP's "plain decency¹¹ and hopeful that more "understanding" will change his conservative stance. In any case, she says: "God speed to him. " "VP-HAK Friendship Blossoms While RN Struggles' tops Glaser in Inquirer. VP says he's just expanding his foreign policy interests during his sessions w/HAK, but Glaser found a Ford staffer more "revealing" as the aide noted HST knew nothing about the area when he took over. Tho PJB is said to have cast doubt on VP's range to match RN in foreign affairs, Glaser notes Veep's feeling that his background is good from Hill comms and travels. ABC closed Sun. w/Anne Armstrong, smiling good-naturedly all the while as she took 10 or SO swats w/champagne bottle in effort to christen 1st nuke-powered attack sub. To laughter and applause, she succeeded w/another bottle. Memorable clip.
