Columbia, April 13.—South Caro
lina legislators began thinking about!
good campaign speeches today be
cause many of them freely predicted
to reporters that the 83rd general as- j
sembly was rounding the last curve

“I hope so.” Even then he qualified
that safe statement by adding, “I
make no prediction.”
Once the rep>ort wins legislative
approval and is signed by the gov-'

but sing away the time until the few
remaining necessary steps are taken
to permit the last gavel to fall.-^
