popularity continues slide PRINCETON, N. J. (AP) President Nixon's popularity score has continued to slide and has hit its lowest point since his election in 1968, says the Gallup oil. In Gallup's July 6-9 national survey, 49 per cent disapproved of Nixon's handling of the presidency, while 40 per cent approved. That is a five-point drop from a survey taken two weeks earlier.

The poll was taken after his fired White House counsel John W. Dean III had testified at the Senate Watergate hearings but before former Atty. Gen. John N. Mitchell appeared.

The latest poll shows Nixon's rating down 28 points from his high of 68 per cent approval recorded in January, following the Vietnam peace settlement. Gallup said the drop is the sharpest ever recorded in polls of presidential popularity over a six-month period since the mid-1930s. However, the President's score is five points above the lowest recorded for his preced essor, Lyndon B. Johnson. The former president's popularity low was the 35 per cent approv al given him in August 1968, when there was general discouragement over the Vietnam war.

Responses from 1,544 adults to the question, "Do you ap prove or disapprove of the way Nixon is handling the job as President?" showed disapproval now outweighs approval in all major population groups except Southerners and those who align themselves with the Republican party.
