It is perhaps a long time since you have heard from me, but I thought it sufficiently important that you would be interested to hear a little more about one of the Republican candidates who is running for Governor. I speak of Joe Shell. I have become very interested in politics. In the past few months I have investigated Joe Shell's record and found him to be a man consistently voting for the conservative side, that he is for fiscally sound government, for American Ideals and the Constitution. He has no alliance to a political machine. He knows state politics. I am convinced that he is the candidate who can win in November. Most of all - if Shell defeats Nixon, which I am sure he can with your help, he will be a strong state-wide figure and indeed a national figure. He will steam-roll Pat Brown. Sincerely, P.S. Just fill in the salutation, sign your name and mail your ten letters today. Together we can give California a Conservative Governor. Memorandum from THOMAS E. SMITH To Bob Haldeman Date 5/21/62 Dear Bob: Thought this might be of interest to you. Shell Tom TROJANS FOR SHELL ! COMMITTEE Fellow Trojan!

SHELL FOR GOVERNOR 4364 El Camino Real Los Altos, California 948-9033 Dear Democrat: I need your help by April 12th. Back in 1939 I met President Roosevelt. Our U.S.C. football team which I captained had just whipped Tennessee in the Rose Bowl. I was running for a student office too and, needing sound advice, I asked the President for some tips. He chuckled, "Why Joe, just ask the people, that's all I do. But ask all the people." And because of that advice I am writing you today. There are a lot of Republicans who don't want Dick Nixon, and Democratic friends of mine tell me there are many Democrats who aren't 100% for Pat Brown either. If you are one of them, I would appreciate your vote. If, with your help, I beat Dick Nixon in the Republican Primary, I'll take my chances on convincing you that Joe Shell is worthy of your vote in November too. Here's the vital point. Only those registered as Republicans can vote for me in the June Primary. Deadline to change registration is April 12th: Believe me, changing your registration in no way prevents you from voting for the man of your choice, be it Pat Brown or the Republican candidate, in the November election. Both parties' candidates will appear on everybody's ballot then. The choice will be yours. It's easy to re-register. Contact my Headquarters at the address given above and they will tell you how to do it. Remember, there isn't much time. If you'd like to help me beat Dick Nixon in June, register as a Republican by April 12th. Whatever you decide - win, lose or draw - thank you very much. Cordially yours, JOE SHELL P.S.

Shell. Plans for the gigantic public rally were announced this week by William Snyder of Whittier, chairman of the ambitious "Joe Shell Rally" committee. Snyder, a former classmate of Shell at the University of Southern California and long-time Republican Party figure, predicted a capacity crowd for the huge Sports Arena with "Shell for Governor" volunteers slated to converge on Los Angeles from throughout the state. "Origination of this idea came from the grassroots volunteers of the many Shell headquarters throughout Southern California who feel that definite steps should be taken to provide Joe Shell with an im- pressive majority vote at the June 5 election," Snyder said. "We have had a most enthusiastic response from all of our campaign volunteers," he stated. "Bus and car caravans from Santa Barbara, Bakersfield, Riverside, San Diego and scores of other areas are already being organized, leading us to anticipate an overflow crowd for this major public rally." Snyder also serves as Shell's campaign chairman in Whittier, the former hometown of Shell's GOP primary opponent, Richard Nixon. He is a native of Los Angeles and has been active in Republican circles statewide and locally for the past 12 years.

Only registered Republicans who stated that they definitely plan to vote on June 5 were counted in the survey. "The last computation of survey responses was made on Friday, May 4. On that day the results were: Joe Shell - 38% Richard Nixon - 43% Other - 2% Undecided - 17% "The poll indicates that approximately 62% of the state's registered Republicans plan to vote in the primary election. Those (MORE) 1st add .Gubernatorial Poll who stated they were planning to vote in the primary were asked: "If the primary election were being held today, for whom do you think you would vote: Richard Nixon or Joseph Shell?" Increasing awareness on the part of Republicans that only Joe Shell can beat Pat Brown in November was given as the chief reason for voter preference. A more complete knowledge of and experience in state affairs was the second most frequently mentioned reason given by respondents who said they planned to vote for Shell. The continuing poll is being conducted by volunteer workers throughout the state under professional supervision -0- From the Desk of FRED HAFFNER Mrs. Wright, shellie Our copying machine is on the fritz, so would you please send copies of the two attached sheets to Dick Ports and Sandy Quinn.
