Scranton Plans Extended Vacation After Goldwater Loss
Gov. William Scranton of Pennsylvania cooled off in San Francisco after a whirlwind campaign for the GOP presidential nomination ended in defeat by Barry Goldwater. He joined Pennsylvania delegates, supported Goldwater at the convention, and later planned a family vacation. Goldwater launched his campaign with a call to return to proven ways and to restore freedom, while Nixon urged Republicans to unite and work toward November victory.
