...Saturday -Ford's anniversary day in office. The President and Betty Ford had dinner with Vice President Nelson Rockefeller and his wife Happy. The get-together was a gesture of support for Rockefeller, who has recently come under fire. Ford's newly appointed campaign director, Howard ("Bo") Callaway, wondered out loud on a couple of occasions if Rocky should not be dropped from the ticket in order to reassure the Republican right. The dinner was an obvious demonstration that Callaway had been told to cool...
...even the flap over whether Rocky would be a political drag for Ford next year upset the Vice President very long. As a result and after a cozy helicopter flight with the President, Rockefeller and Ford may be closer than ever. Ford and his new campaign manager, Howard ("Bo") Callaway, the former Secretary of the Army and conservative Georgia Congressman, had wanted to try to disarm the militant right-wingers of the G.O.P., who still dislike Rocky.

Former Army Secretary Howard Callaway-who is now Gerald Ford's campaign manager-declaimed that: "There's a feeling in this country that Teddy Roosevelt helped the Panamanians get their independence, negotiated the treaty, paid for it, conquered yellow fever and brought them their sole economic enterprise. There's the feeling that...
...reputations for openness and honesty. The finance chairman is David Packard, former Deputy Secretary of Defense under Nixon and a multimillionaire California industrialist (Hewlett-Packard Co.). The treasurer is Robert C. Moot, Defense Department comptroller in the Nixon Administration. Moot said jokingly that his job will be to watch Callaway and Packard and "keep 'em both honest." The chairman of Ford's campaign advisory committee, Dean Burch, a former Nixon aide and political counsel to Republican Senator Barry Goldwater, noted that his eyes will be pointed in a different direction: "I'm going to take a long...
