Democrats for Reagan assemble
Dixie Lee Ray spoke to a gathering of Democrats who are In support of Reagan-
Bush "84 at the Airport Plcadilly Inn yesterday. Ray served as governor of
Washington for one term and has been Involved In many Republican administrations.

Dr. Dixy Lee Ray, National Chair¬
person of Democrats for Reagan/ Bush
and former governor of Washington, isnt
sure if she is Democrat or a Republican,
but she is sure of one thing: she will vote
for Ronald Reagan.
A life-long Democrat, Ray. 70, said she
will vote Republican in November be¬
cause the Democratic party has shifted
too far to the left, leaving many of its more
moderate members feeling deserted. Ray
identified herself as one of those deserted
Democrats.
"The Democratic party is being taken
over by the left wing and is moving toward
socialism," said Ray.
Ray, who received her PhD from
Stanford and taught at the University of
Washington for over twenty years as an
associate professor of zoology, spoke in
Fresno to a group of Democrats who are
supporting the Republican ticket, and
later to a small gathering in the upstairs
cafeteria at CSUF.
As former chairperson of the Atomic
Energy Commission under President
Nixon, Ray described herself as an "un¬
abashed, unashamed supporter" of nu¬
clear technology. She said she knows
and likes Walter Mondale, but felt she
could not support him after reading some
of his comments regarding the Diablo
Canyon Nuclear Power Plant. Although
she did not elaborate on Mondale's com¬
ments, she said she felt Mondale was
"misinformed" and "spoke ignorantly."

issue that he was catering to a particular
group to secure campaign support.
In regard to national defense and >ri-
fiable arms control," Ray said she doeui\
believe that Mondale and Ferraro could
make a substantial difference in current
policy. Ray said she has sat at many ■
table trying to define "verification" with,
out much succes*.
"It's not that I doubt their sincerity,"
she said of Mondale and Ferraro. "It'sjult
that people with just a* much sincerity
have already tried and failed."
When asked about her feelings on the
recent presidential debates, Ray said tbe
recent presidential debates are superficial
and meaningless. She said it is unfor¬
tunate these debates carry so much impact
on the American public and feels that for
the most part they do more harm than
good. People.'she said, have a tendency to
vote based on emotions rather than f.cu
"They are not debates. They are appear¬
ances,"she said. "In this arena, a personii
judged by how much he sweats or ho*
much makeup he has on."
Political activity among young people
has taken a positive turn in recent years,
according lo Ray. Young people, she said,
especially those on college campuses, art
taking a more thoughtful approach to
their future. She said American yotiilu
have given up the radical,
test days in favor of a mo
approach.
"They (young people) are ex,
the issues, which is important at a

course of their 8-year marriage; she had
told no one, not wishing to harm his
his public image. The closest the
[    successful young newscaster got to dis-
I    cussing it was when he stated, to the same
j    friend, in a somewhat timid bitterness, "ll
I    didn't turn out the way I wanted it to... she
I    just didn't try hard enough. If she had,
J    we'd still be married." At the time he said
j    that,  1 thought he hardly touched on
reality. Now, hearing it as the voice and
the thinking ofthe traditionalist batterer,
I think it said it all.
