...grows blue with cigarette smoke. "We don't sell sweet religious pills in the discussions," he says. "What we give is the truth."

If the Democratic Convention should select virtually anybody except Roman Catholic Jack Kennedy, then Catholic Californian Brown, with his 81 convention blue chips, might become attractive as the second man on the ticket. And if any of the presidential candidates had ideas of taking those 81 votes away from him in California's June primary, Favorite Son Pat Brown issued a fair warning: "Then I might to some extent change my position . . .
