GOP Chairman Choice Seen Centered On Morton Or Wilkinson
Speculation swirls over a GOP national chairmanship with Maryland congressman Rogers C. Morton and former Oklahoma football coach Charles Bud Wilkinson as front runners. President Nixon plans to delay naming a successor to Ray Bliss until after his European trip in early March. Bliss has said he will resign by mid April to return to Akron Ohio. Morton aides say he is unsure about an offer while Wilkinson is noted for his role with Nixon as a youth affairs advisor and ABC TV football analyst. Nixon praised Bliss for rebuilding the party but advisers favor a more public speaker who can rally Republicans without alienating Democrats.
