From: Carol Dawson
Re: Contacts in Syracuse and Buffalo
The College contact in Syracuse is Richard Sullivan,
who successfully engineered Nixon's nomination by the
Syracuse Republican mock convention. As you can well
imagine, the opposition from Rockefeller forces was
imposing.
I have spoken with Richard, and he still has a
lot of the materials, plus the organization, from the
convention campaign. He will see that there are lots
of students, and a band, if possible, on hand to meet
the Vice President's plane.
You can get in touch with him at Ho 3-3451 or
HO 3-1381. I have found it is better to call him after
10 pm since he apparently works at night.
In Buffalo your contact is Edward Mattar, an active
YR who has been quietly drumming up collegiate Nixon support
since last fall, and is a student at the University of
Buffalo. I have spoken with him a few times on this, and
he is sure he will have a car caravan of 25 or so cars with
coeds, signs, etc., to meet Nixon at the airport. He is also
publicizing the affair at the Hotel Lafayette so that you should
have even more students there.
You can contact Mattar at GARfield 4019 in Buffalo,
or through the University switchboard during the day, since
he teaches there part-time. (He is a graduate student.)
In Syracuse, Sullivan has been in touch with Traister,
but assures me he can get things organized without too much
help.
In Buffalo, Mattar is on good terms with Bob Casey,
Erie Co. YR Chairman. Other good Nixon names I have for that
area are: Mrs. Gay Hogg, Vice Pres. of New York YR's;
John Klocke; and William Adams. These have been recommended
by Diarmuid 'Scannlain.

CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
WASHINGTON, D.C.
May 13, 1960
Mr. Robert Holdeman
Office of the Vice President
Senate Office Building
Washington 25, D. C.
Dear Bob:
I hope this reaches you before you leave for Syracuse. It
might give you an opportunity to brief the Vice President.
1. An eleven year old Mattydale (suburb of Syracuse) girl
wrote a letter to the Congressman expressing her deep interest
in the Vice President. She explained that she was tremendously
interested in him and hoped it might be possible for her to
meet him. She is an eighth grade student.
Mr. Riehlman proposes to take her to the airport with him
and, hopefully, he will have an opportunity to have her shake
hands with the Vice President. This is not a major event, but
it does seem to have some good publicity value both before and
after the reception, as we expect some mileage for Mr. Riehlman
with your approval and help.
2. On Sunday, May 22nd, a major community effort is taking
place in Syracuse and Onondaga County. It is under the heading
of USO-Armed Forces Religious Emphasis Day. The point is that
it is a day-long observance to bring together the military and
civilian communities through worship and fellowship. (The
Syracuse area has in excess of 6,000 members of the Armed Forces,
and an additional 6,000-8,000 area men and women are in the
Armed Forces elsewhere.)
All of the military services and all religious denominations
and a great number of community leaders have joined to make this
a substantial community function.
The thought has been expressed that if it was possible for
the Vice President to refer to this at anytime during his stay
here it would be most helpful and highly publicizable. The re-
quest for a television studio visit was to get the Vice President
on tape for this message which was proposed for telecast to the
War Memorial audience on Sunday, May 22, at which time between
8,000-10,000 persons will gather for the highlight event of
Religious Emphasis Day. While we know this can't happen, perhaps
there is some allusion which can be made to the event.

Most of the ducks for the reception seem to be in order, and
I look forward to seeing you during your two days here.
Kindest personal regards,

Fact Sheet
RELIGIOUS EMPHASIS DAY
IN SYRACUSE AND ONONDAGA COUNTY
What is it?
Religious Emphasis Day is a day-long observance designed to
bring together the military and civilian communities through joint
worship and social fellowship.
Why?
The uniform is seldom worn by service men and women during
off-duty hours. Because of this, area residents do not fully
realize the large number of military families who are sharing in
their community life and who contribute to the economy and growth
of the Syracuse Metropolitan Area.
By attending, in uniform, the Religious Emphasis Day events,
members of the Armed Forces will furnish vivid evidence not only
of their presence, but also of their interest and participation in
the community, its programs and institutions.
At the same time, residents of Syracuse and Onondaga County
will have an opportunity to welcome the military families, and
to offer them hospitality and fellowship.
- 2 -
When?
Religious Emphasis Day in Syracuse and Onondaga County
will be held on Sunday, May 22, 1960. This date was selected
because it is the day after Armed Forces Day, and it precedes
Memorial Day.
Who is sponsoring the program?
The USO of Syracuse and Onondaga County is sponsoring the
event in cooperation with the Protestant, Catholic and Jewish faiths,
and the military commands in the area.
Stewart F. Hancock, attorney, is chairman of the over-all program.
Co-chairmen are Leonard P. Markert, industrialist, and Asher S. Markson,
retailer. (A complete list of committees is attached.)
What is the program?
Briefly, the day's schedule will include morning worship services,
followed by social programs and home hospitality hours, an afternoon
program of appropriate entertainment at the War Memorial Auditorium,
and an informal Open House at the USO Lounge. (A more detailed
program is attached.)
