STATE DEMOCRATIC
DELEGATES NAMED.
Four Women Receiving Highest Votes
Win, Though Three Men
Got More.
The complete vote for the seventeen
candidates for delegates-at-large to
the Democratic National convention,
cast at the State primary April 22,
was determined on Saturday with the
computation at Harrisburg of official
returns from the sixty-seven counties
in Pennsylvania.
The four men who received the
highest vote among the ten men can-
didates and the four high women of
the seven women aspirants will be
chosen, according to Austin E. Mec-
Collough, Democratic State chairman.
The high men and their vote were:
Jacob H. Mays, Berks, 75,217; Lewis
C. Cassidy, Philadelphia, 68,811; John
A. McSparran, Lancaster, 63,546;
Charles B. Lenahan, Luzerne, 57,650.
The four high women and their vote
follows: Mary E. Herbert, Lehigh,
66,569; Anna M. Roesch, Northamp-
ton, 59,239; Maide B. Renshaw, Alle-
gheny, 53,679; May R. Lenny, Dela-
ware, 49,330. :
The returns show three men receiv-
ed higher totals than the lowest cast
for the four high women, but under
the State chairman’s ruling will not
be delegates-at-large. They were:
John A. Farwell, Chester, 56,187; John
J. “Butch” McDevitt, Luzerne, 54,325;
Joseph Howley, Allegheny, 53,870.
The vote for other candidates on the
ticket follows: A Wright Bigler,
Clearfield, 47,026; George R. McLean,
Luzerne, 45,172; Andrew R. Brodbeck,
York, 40,667; Gertrude S. Ely, Mont-
gomery, 33,105; Marie A. O’Connell,
Philadelphia, 46,954; Edith B. Allen,
Lycoming, 43,206.
Pinafore by Radio at State College.
Central Pennsylvania radio enthu-
siasts have some special musical
treats in store for next week from the
station at The Pennsylvania State
College. .
“Pinafore,” the comic opera that
was rendered so successfully at the
College by student talent last week,
will be reproduced especially for a ra-
dio audience on next Monday evening,
May 19th, beginning about 8:30 or
8:45 p. m., eastern standard time. On
the following Wednesday evening at
8 o'clock, T. H. Barritt, of Washing-
ton, D. C., a well known baritone solo-
ist will give a two hour musical en-
tertainment featured by cathedral
chimes, vocal selections and instru-
mental offerings on a “musical saw,”
oboe, saxaphone and water glasses.
He is a professional entertainer and
has been heard from many of the
larger stations in the country.
The comic opera “Pinafore,” fol-
lowing its presentation at the college
last Thursday, was characterized as
the best musical entertainment ever
given by student talent at the Col-
lege. The coaching and staging ef-
fects showed up so well as to make
the presentation interesting from
start to finish. The work of its prin-
cipals who will broadcast on Monday
was especially commendable. These
include Messrs. Bauder, Finley, But-
ler and Eschenbach, and the Misses
Betty Croll, Dorothy Brandon and
Adeline Buehn.
——The War Department has noti-
fied State College authorities that
Lieut. Col. Clenard McLaughlin, will
be assigned to the College as com-
mandant, effective the first of Sep-
tember, while Capt George L. Febig-
er, who has been in charge since 1920,
will be transferred to the infantry
school at Fort Benning, Ga.
——Miss Rebecca Yerger last week
resigned her position as secretary at
the Bellefonte High school building
and on Monday morning went to work
in the First National bank, filling the
vacancy caused by the death of the
late Nevin E. Cole.
