Washington's flap is eternal, and no sooner had Ike made his availability known than a storm brewed about Richard Nixon as his running mate. Harold Stassen, who was supposed to advise the President on international disarmament, urged dumping Nixon in favor of Massachusetts' Governor Christian Herter. Hagerty, who liked Nixon and thought he was the strongest candidate for Vice President, consulted the President, issued a statement pointedly reading Stassen out of the official Eisenhower family in his fight against Nixon.

It represents the finest in Navy tradition, but from the first word uttered by Boatswain's Mate Jones (Mickey Shaughnessy)-a short, unpleasant sound that is blotted from the sound track by a stentorian beep-it is apparent that he represents one of the worst mistakes a recruiting officer ever made. Lieut. Siegel (Glenn Ford), Marblehead's chief whipping boy, is assigned to rectify the error...
