Background: GOVERNOR WILLIAM SCRANTON ARRIVES IN SAN FRANCISCO TODAY (WEDNESDAY) IN A BID TO GAIN SUPPORT FOR HIS UPHILL BATTLE AGAINST SENATOR GOLDWATER FOR THE REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL NOMINATION. BUT AFTER TWO DAYS OF HEARINGS BY THE PARTY PLATFORM COMMITTEE, WORKING OUT A POLICY FOR NEXT WEEK'S NOMINATING CONVENTION, THE OVER-WHELMING IMPRESSION IS THAT THE SENATOR HAS THE NOMINATION WRAPPED UP.

GOVERNOR SCRANTON'S FINAL CAMPAIGN EFFORTS IN THE COUNTRY, INCLUDED A 'WHISTLE-STOP' TOUR THROUGH ILLINOIS, DURING WHICH HE MADE BRIEF SPEECHES AT SPRINGFIELD AND DECATUR.
