In Jacksonville Florida three children drowned while attempting to rescue a companion who had fallen into the river. Eyewitnesses say the group were near a play area when the accident occurred, with one child reportedly going under after entering the water. The incident follows reports of risky play near the water and comes as authorities investigate the scene.
Truman aides declare Ike definitely out as a Democratic draft fight looms. James Roosevelt says Ike might accept if party unity appears, while Alabama leaders insist Eisenhower cannot evade a draft. The scene shifts from New York to Philadelphia as Democrats weigh the general’s bid and Truman’s future path.
An Arkansas county ends the year with a surplus across funds including general and road, with figures noted in an audit by the state office.
