Just a few thoughts.
I think we should cue the audience to stand at the Nixon intro-
duction, rather than waiting until they are on camera and then
haphasardly rise to their feet. This looks awkward.
As mentioned in an earlier memorandum, I strongly feel the stars
should not make their endorsement pitch when they are first
introduced and all lined up in a row. This should simply be an
introduction and a wave. They should wait until they come in to
ask questions to make their endorsement. It is very bad to have
the whole series all at once, and this greatly delays the opening
of the show.
Incidentally, the opening took way too long. It was 9 minutes
before the first question came on. Perhaps we could hold up
PN's introduction until after some questions have been asked.
The Eisenhower film is terrible, and must not be used again. I
assume we now have clips from his speech to use instead.
I still think our sign-off is awkward. We started it with 8 minutes
still to 80, and it was much more time than was needed for the
closing credits. Consequently, it bogged down. Nixon's sign-off
speech was excellent. He should be encouraged to use this
continually.
Can't we get the Win With Nixon slide to use at the end of the show
on the disclaimer, rather than "A paid political program"?
I agree with the earlier suggestion that the strong part of our
fund pitch should be our joining with Dick in his crusade for a
better California, and then we should make every effort to get
maximum conviction into the pitch. I think this will be more
effective than frequent repetition.
- 2 -
Please don't construe any of the above as an indication of dis-
satisfaction with the program. I think it was the best yet, and
they have all been excellent, but as you know, I feel we should
keep working for possible improvements.

Dear Mr. McHose:
Your letter of September 27th
to Mr. Nixon has been received while he is
on the campaign trail.
We are sorry to advise that
your request for the autographed cards cannot
be fulfilled. As I am sure you will understand,
since Dick Nixon is a gubernatorial candidate
in the state of California, it has been necessary
for him to establish the policy of no participation
in any out-of-state campaign. There can be no
deviation from this policy, in fairness to all
concerned.
Certainly we wish to extend our
very best wishes, and regret our answer must be
as it is. The cards are being returned to you
herewith.
Sincerely,
H. R. Haldeman

productivity.

Maury Stans advises that Warren Pratt of the
Holly Corporation, who is helping him in the finance
area, reported some information which he felt might
be worthy of some investigation.
It seems that a man named Savage is Brown's
Real Estate Commissioner. He has been investigated
by the California Intelligence Association for mis-
conduct in office and drunkeness, was found guilty,
and the CIA recommended to Brown that he be fired. Brown
asked him to resign, and he refused to do SO. He is still
holding office. Apparently there is no intention of
doing anything further on this because of the imminence
of the election.
Can we make some productive hay out of this item?
If so, perhaps Nat White could handle the investigation.
Warren Pratt will be happy to cooperate.

Dear Bill:
Thanks very much for your letter of October 1st.
At this point, it doesn't look as though we are going to
be able to work out a visit by Dick Nixon to the UCLA
campus. I want to assure you, however, it is the type of
thing he would like very much to do, if at all possible.
With only a few weeks remaining and still a lot of areas
to cover, I hope you will realize the situation which
prevails and precludes our working the UCLA visit into
the itinerary. Almost every minute from here out has
already been committed.
It would be my suggestion that you extend your invitation
to either George Christopher or Tom Kuchel and would urge
that you do so in order to balance your program.
Although impossible to accept, you know without my saying
the invitation from the UCLA family is deeply appreciated.
With kind personal regards and all good wishes.

Leone Baxter informs me that she
has the following information from Frank Jordan:
The state plans to buy $50,000,000 to
$60,000,000 in heavy equipment for the Feather River
Project from foreign countries at reduced prices in order
to make up the budget deficit for this project.
Jordan feels that Brown or Warne should be
publicly queried on an innocent basis as to where the
state is going to buy this equipment and force them to
reveal this plan.

Dear Mr. Rosefield:
I am sorry this reply to your letter of September 15th
to Dick Nixon has been delayed. It was received during
the campaign kick-off week while he was traveling, and
referred to my office. Unfortunately, I too have been on
the read much of the time the past week or two.
We do want to assure you of our appreciation for the
thoughtfulness that went into your letter. It is heartening
to Dick, as it is to all of us in the campaign organization,
when such offers to be of assistance are received here.
We will certainly bring to the attention of others your
comments and suggestions. Whether or not your idea can be
implemented in view of the already planned programs now
being effected, I do not know. Nonetheless, we appreciate
your writing us as you have, and if further thoughts
occur to you in the remaining weeks of the campaign, I
certainly hope you will let us hear from you. Your suggestions
will be given every consideration, and are gratefully re-
ceived.
Many thanks again for your enthusiasm, interest and support.

Gladys O'Donnell called me this morning about
a couple of matters, one of which I am referring to you
herewith:
She said she had spoken to Rose about this --
but was wondering what if anything had been done as follow-up.
It seems a fellow by the name of Glenn Purvine is ready,
willing and able to donate his car, tape recorder and
loud-speaker -- to travel statewide -- either preceding
or with the candidate's party -- providing the hoopla etc.
Gladys wants to be sure we know of this offer and
that it does not go unacknowledged.
Could you have someone either write or call
Mr. Purvine?

Further on the Telethon critique:
1) We need more human interest questions.
2) We need more opportunity for RN to show righteous
indignation to some questions.
3) The following were especially great improvements over
the Primary Telethon:
a) the work of the emcee;
b) the shortened comments by the question-askers;
c) the local people answering the phones instead of
pretty girls;
d) the celebrities.
Charlie Farrington

Bob Haldeman
Will you please cover these points with the individuals
concerned for consideration of future Telethons?
1)
The question sorting room should be off-bounds to all
personnel except those specifically assigned to question
sorting, i.e. Hunter, Woods, Hamilton and Haldeman -
and Boyd Gibbons who will handle the runner chores.
In order to enforce this, I think we should put only enough
chairs in the room for the above mentioned people, and
should inform all of our staff they are not to use this room
before or during the Telethon.
The reason for this is not secrecy, but efficient operation.
It is impossible to handle the question sorting chore and the
necessary communication among those so involved if there are other
people moving in and out of the room, talking to the sorters etc.
Among the problems in Salinas were the use of the room as a
celebrities waiting room before they went to make-up; its use
as PN's waiting room before she went on her party tour; a
general resting place and focal point for several staff members;
a viewing room for one of the Nixon-Airs who got tired carrying
messages back and forth; constant popping in with people who
had things to chat about that could have waited until later
or never.
In other words, please ask everyone to stay out of the sorting
room.
Along this line, I think it is important that monitors be
available to staff members in other areas of the stage so that
they will have some place to watch the program. This would
apply to such people as Bud Look, Ray Arbuthnot, the celebrities
etc.
. 2 -
2)
The identification signs for the telephone operators
were way too small.
3)
At the time the show went on the air, Lloyd Nolan was
wandering around, totally lost, not knowing where to sit
or what to do.
4)
We need much better crowd control. There were all
sorts of extraneous people wandering all over the stage,
including - I am sure - whatever Brown spies were
assigned to cover this.
5)
We need more set decoration. They apparently only had
two of the miniature 24-sheets. There should be more
of this material available and the production crew
should carry a reserve supply.
6)
We discussed during the program the audience noise level
problem. This should be carefully looked into ahead of
air tim e.
7)
Regarding Rex Mays, everyone agreed he did a superb job,
but there are a couple of minor suggestions:
1) I think he could put more fire and enthusiasm into
his opening;
2) I think he could speed up his rate of delivery on the
half-hourly wrap-ups, which would make this much more
effective.
8)
There was fund-raising pitch at the opening of the show,
another one 20 minutes into the show, and another one at
the end of the first 30 minutes; I think this is too
close together --- they should be about every half hour.
- 3 -
9)
It seemed to me that Payne was on too long the first
half hour. I think a change of pace of interrogators
is especially important in the early part of the show to
get the show off to a good fast start. This is no
criticism of Payne - but merely of the timing.

I think it was a mistake to let McCarthy on to make a
speech, and as agreed, I don't believe he should be on the
air except in San Francisco, which is his area.

The Philippino translation is good, but if we repeat this
type of thing, I think it should be as it was this time --
in the latter part of the show -- because it does slow the
pace down tremendously. I also think there was a little too
much of it.

RN was concerned about the fact he was trapped into a visit
with the studio audience -- which he avoided by going to the
operators instead; also by being forced to ask the questions
himself at the beginning and at other times during the show.
It was his understanding and we had agreed with Roarke before
show time that neither of these things should be done. This
should be clearly settled between Roarke and RN prior to the
next Telethon.
