Result of Tuesday’s Primaries.
Probably never in the history of
Centre county was there such a com-
plete lack of interest in presiden-
tial primary as was displayed by the
voters of Centre county on Tuesday.
Only about twenty per cent. of the to-
tal vote in the county was cast, and
the only contests that excited any ac-
tivity were those between Governor
Pincnot and Strassburger for dele-
gate-at-large to the Republican na-
tional convention, and between G. Os-
car Gray and Larry Redding, in a
sticker campaign for a place on the
Democratic State committee. Pinchot
had a majority over Strassburger of
288 while Gray won over Redding by
98 votes. William H. Noll Jr., of
Pleasant Gap, was nominated .for the
Legislature on the Democratic ticket,
receiving 320 votes, while an effort on
the part of a few of his enthusiastic
supporters to corner the Democratic
nomination for J. L. Holmes, of State
College, resulted in his getting 67
votes in opposition to Noll.
In the three-cornered contest for
Republican district delegates to the
National convention Mrs. Ella J.
Mountz polled the highest vote in
Centre county, she receiving 1406,
while Connelly was second and Boose
a poor third. Wilson I. Fleming waz
chosen Republican county chairman
and G. Oscar Gray re-elected Demo-
cratic county chairman.

Two Big Events for the Altoona
Speedway.
The opening gun of the 1924 racing
season at the new Altoona speedway
was fired this week when officials of
the great board oval definitely an-
nounced that the two major events
would be held on the track during the
coming summer. These will be two
250-mile races, for purses of $25,000.-
00 each.
The first of these events will be held
on June 14th, when the most noted
drivers of the world will compete in
what is expected to be the fastest
contest in motoring history. The
second will be on Labor day, Septem-
ber 1st, which date has been alloted
to Altoona following the destruction
of the Uniontown track.
Coming two weeks after the 500-
mile classic at Indianapolis, the Al-
toona track is selecting from the
drivers of the world eighteen to twen-
ty of the most renowned pilots to
face the starter’s flag.
Seats for the big June classic at the
Altoona bowl have been placed on sale
during the past few days, and from
the advanced demand all reserved sec-
tions will be sold out at least several
weeks in advance of the starting date.
Reflecting the interest aroused in
speedway racing throughout the coun-
try this year, officials predict that
100,000 persons from all parts of the
United States will be present.
To accommodate the increased
crowds, the association announced
that additions were being built to the
two huge grand stands, in addition to
remodeling these structures through-
out to give perfect vision from every
seat. Fred J. Wagner, international-
ly known sportsman and starter of
practically every major race, who will
officiate at the Altoona races, declared
at the recent event in Los Angeles
that the Altoona race in June would
have the fastest time and the great-
est driving of any race up to this
time.

WITTER.—Albert Augustus Wit-
ter, for many years a prominent cit-
izen of Tyrone, and who was well
known in Bellefonte and other por-
tions of Centre county, passed away

months with arterio sclerosis he was
able to be around as usual up until

CHARTER MEETING OF
BELLEFONTE KIWANIANS.
.-. The congested condition of the news
columns of the “Watchman” during
the hospital drive made it necessary
to hold out many items that were of
interest at the time. One of them was
an account of the charter meeting of
Kiwanis. Kiwanis is only an infant
among Bellefonte organizations, but
already it has proven its great stat-
ure as an agency for the general wel-
fare and because of the fact that it
has already justified its existence by
its splendid conduct of the hospital
drive we are sure you will be inter-
ested in knowing something of how it
stopped long enough in its work for
the hospital to receive the charter un-
der which it will operate in the fu-
ture.
The meeting was held Tuesday
evening, April 1st, at the Brockerhoff
house at 7 p. m., and was preceded by
Rather peculiar weather for .
a banquet at which most of the mem-
i bers and their ladies were present.
| After the singing of “America” by
the members an invocation was pro-
nounced by Rev. Ard.
Toastmaster
who was outstanding as presiding offi-
cer, introduced Judge Henry C. Quig-
ley, who mad 7 leasi ! 3

of welcome. Herbert A. Moore, Gov-
ernor of Pennsylvania District, in a
i very able address, extended greetings
| to the new club, explained the policies
of Kiwanis and presented the charter,
constitution and by-laws, which were
accepted by Pres. Wilson P. Ard, in a
| speech which was a credit in every
i way to the Kiwanis.
| Charles F. Taylor, district secretary,
‘added his greetings and best wishes,
land congratulated the club on its
' splendid personnel, quoting Al. Stiner,
- international organizer, who said,
i “The Bellefonte organization consists
‘of the finest bedy of men with which
i I have come in contact in my work.”
| Robert Owens, president of Tyrone
Kiwanis club, which acted as sponsor
| to the local club, presented a beautiful
' flag, accepted by Kiwanian John Love,
| whose speech was a fine tribute
{to our national emblem and Kiwanis.
The speeches of the evening were
| interspersed with music rendered by
the “Williamsport Four,” all members
, of the Williamsport Kiwanis club, and
‘the Bellefonte Academy orchestra.
This was no small part of the program
and was greatly appreciated by the
; audience. The dining room was at-
tractively decorated with club colors
and banners.
| Mrs. James K. Barnhart won the
attendance prize, a pair of gray suede
slippers, with hose to match, given by
Kiwanian Harry C. Yeager.
There were 105 present, made up of
52 from Bellefonte, 4 from DuBois, 5
from Williamsport, 6 from Tyrone Ki-
wanians, and thirty-nine ladies.
Some ten days ago Joseph T,
Lose, son of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Lose,
of Philadelphia, had the misfortune
to run down a child while motoring
on the streets of Philadelphia, injur-
ing it so badly that it died. A coro-
ner’s jury absolved the young driver
from all blame for the accident.

Join the Victory Club for Democracy.
Two years ago Judge Cordell Hull,
chairman of the Democratic National
committee, had a wonderful vision of
what must be done to bring Demo-
cratic victory in 1924. He knew we
could carry the Nation in November if
we made the right kind of fight, but
to win on election day an effective or-
ganization would be necessary. To
wait until after the National ticket
had been named would be too late. He
had learned from bitter experience
that it is next to impossible for the
Democrats to elect a President in a
two months’ campaign. To perfect
such an organization required not
only hard work, but money and the
wolf was at the door of the Democrat-
ic National committee. All that the
, chairman had was the “will” which
said to him “keep on.”
One day, when things looked dark-
est, a letter came from an old friend
up in the mountains of Tennessee
{ which read as follows:
“Dear Cordell: All of us down here
are mighty proud to know you are
chairman of the National committee,
~and we feel that we will elect a Dem-
ocrat for President in 1924. I want
you to take the enclosed $5 and use
every cent of it if necessary. There
jare a lot more down here who will
give $5 if you need it.”
: Chairman Hull wired his old friend:
i “Organize your neighbors into a Dem-
ocratic Victory club.”
| In two weeks ’time he received $95
i from 19 other Democrats who contrib-
‘uted $5 each. That is how the “Na-
tional Democratic Victory club” idea
originated.
Today there are Victory clubs in
thirty States. Each member pays $5
dues. The money is being used for a
comprehensive campaign of education
and organization throughout the coun-
ry.
It is the intention of the National
headquarters to keep in touch with
: the Victory club membe: =. supplying
them individually with up-t~-date po-
litical facts and literature. C} airman
Hull has other plans, not ye. thor-
oughly worked out, by which Fe ex-
pects to co-operate with and use ‘he
organization. He believes tha! a
| Democrat can do his party no greate-
service than to join a Victory club and
make it possible for us to say truth-
fully that the party of the people is
sustained by the people and not by
privileged interests.
Col. J. L. Spangler is president of
the Victory club in Bellefonte and he
invites all good Democrats who want
to have a part in and invest as much
as $5 in National Democratic victory
to dfommunicate with him.
