He promised, if elected, to see to it that the network was more evenhanded. The criticism nettled the Gaullist Cabinet of Premier Maurice Couve de Murville. The Gaullists let it be known that "perhaps a candidate is not best placed to judge the objectivity of the network...
Familiar Dilemma. When the presidential lists officially closed last week, there were seven candidates. The others: Communist Jacques Duclos, 72, Socialist Gaston Defferre, 58, who named ex-Premier Pierre Mendes-France as his running mate and future Premier, insurgent Socialist Michel Rocard, 38, and Painter-Writer Louis Ducatel, 67, campaigning as an independent gadfly "individualist."

...defeated the referendum - his current 35% reading might translate into a majority, as those voters who backed candidates eliminated in Round 1 choose between the two survivors. He already has the endorsement of his own centrist party; besides Defferre, the pivotal backers that could broaden his base include former Premier Pierre Mendès France, a socialist, and former Finance Minister Antoine Pinay, a conservative - both of whom paid calls on him last week. The Communists have not fielded a presidential candidate since 1946, and their current choice, a 7 3-year-old Stalinist fixture named Jacques Duclos, drew only...
