Collision Course for Candidates

The contest narrows to a head to head clash between Eugene J. McCarthy and Robert F. Kennedy as Indiana looms on May 27, with Memphis Johnson looming and Wisconsin primaries to come. Kennedy filed signatures for May 7 ballot in Indianapolis while McCarthy backers filed earlier for governor Roger D. Branigin as Johnson surrogate. Richard Goodwin, a McCarthy lieutenant, signals likely support for either McCarthy or Kennedy, not Johnson.
