Arizona's genial candidate Sen. Barry Goldwater arrives at a San Bernardino campaign reception. Using hands to explain his philosophy, Goldwater emphasizes his stand ata Dodger Stadium press conference A preceding a rally. Not to be standing in the lurch, Republican vote- getters also made their philosophy known to the col- lege students. As part of a program by the Young Republicans Club on campus, actor and now political commentator Ronald Reagan entertained an 11 a.m. audience in the Men's Gym early in the first semester. Reagan described the nation's slipping prestige and called for the election of his good friend, a United States senator, to the Presidency. Reagarfs good friend turned out to be conservative spokesman Barry Goldwater, who addressed a mam- moth rally in Dodger Stadium and returned to the state for Newspaper Week ceremonies in San Bernar- dino. Goldwater's primary opponent for the Republican nomination, New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller., also turned up in Los Angeles for a speech and campaign reception. The highlight of the reception came when a pert young girl walked up to the smiling Governor and introduced herself as Joanne Goldwater, daughter of another popular Presidential candidate.
