Press International There are not too many worlds left to conquer for a Rockefeller. When Nelson A. Rockefeller chose politics as his, someone asked him his objective. "There's only one name of the game in American politics," he B United said. That game was the pursuit of the presidency of the United Slates, a prize which eluded Rockefeller through three national campaigns. At the age of 66, he came next in rank to it through the fortunes of history. Rockefeller, who changed the face and finances of New York State in 15 years as its governor, exudes a vitality belying his age. He is a harddriving, energetic administrator who can leave younger aides exhausted. His square jaw and piercing gray eyes lend themselves to caricature and his raspy voice is a delight to imitators. His height is sometimes a surprise to those meeting him for the first time because his broad shoulders and large head give the impression of a much taller man. Rockefeller, one of the five grandsons of John D. Rockefeller Sr., who founded the Standard Oil Co. and one of the world's greatest fortunes, was elected New York governor in 1958. When he took office, his first state budget totaled $2,041 fiscal year, billion. By the 1973-7the total had zoomed to $8,881 4 billion. The New York State Universi- ty system, carved out of glass and concrete by a $2 billion construction program, is one of his monuments. Six times larger than when Rockefeller took office, it consists of 72 campuses with a total enrollment of 384,899 and is second only to California's among state higher education systems. Rockefeller also took stands on matters which gained him both friends and enemies. He began pushing for liberalized abortion in New York state as early as 1969 and the eventual result was New York's "abortion on demand" law, one of the first in the nation. ' He also was an early advocate police fire. tttlVt in w W EZ? HOW PLAYIIiC! SHOWS AT Ul A 7:301 MO PJl C3.Y tOO P SUTUSAY r lures 8:45 SHOW AT differently." EXCLUSIVE 7 DAY EHGAEEHEHT! Personal problems have cut across his career. In March of 1962, just as he was to begin his campaign for the second of four terms as governor, Rockefeller, was divorced by his wife of 32 years, Mary Todhunter Clark a Philadelphia-boRockefeller, railroad heiress. Less than 14 months later, Rockefeller married the former Margaretta a Filter "Happy" Murphy, divorced mother of four. foundation The Rockefeller was founded by John D. Rockefeller Sr., the son of a small trader at Richford, N.Y., who started a small company to enter the oil refining business in 1863, four years after the first American oil well was drilled in Titusville, L3 una Rockefeller's stand shattered his liberal image forever with many Americans but he said later, "I do not see how I could have done w tstf MM Y Herald Want Ads Get Results You 3 never met a pair like Butch and The Kid!

The company became the giant Standard Oil Co., which before it broken up by antitrust rulings controlled 95 per cent of the oil refining in the United States'and made Rockefeller the world's first billionaire. The Rockefeller fortune is so vast that even today its full scope is not known. It was once estimated that John D. Sr. gave away half a billion dollars in his to charitable and lifetime philanthropic causes and his son, John D. Jr., nearly as much. The philanthropic tradition was carried on to John D. Jr.'s sons, Nelson, Winthrop, David, John D. Ill and Laurance. tnfi l was EXCLUSIVE! DISNEY'S SOUTH SEA ISLAND ADVENTURE Sj25S S STATE, PROVOJ 8:30 SHOWTIME BIG ISLAND ADVENTURE!

Rockefeller's most controversial decision came when convicts seized New York's Attica State Prison Sept. 9, 1971, in what became the bloodiest pental uprising in modern U.S. history.
