Sliarpshoeter's Curve m Majer's Makeup' Gives Him Giraffe
Appearance When He h Slitting, but'Hera 'Only 5 Feet 10
, ,t : v '
A musical comedy features a song
which glorifies the charms 'of a long,
lean and lanky person, and given the
general Impression that It meant some
thing te be se described.
Majer David A. ltced. of Pittsburgh,
candidate for the Itepubllcan nomina
tion te succeed Senater Crew, who Is
In the city today, may be se described,
except, paradoxically, when he stands
up.
Then his length seems te vanish nnd
the Impression Is replaced by a I'llm,
trim figure, with n large head, whose
prominence U enhanced by a bulging
forehead nnd eyes burning with nervous
Intensity. I S
Seated, (he major folds up like a
half-closed jack-knife, leeks an if he
wei ' ' compete with the celling when
he : ese. The height, however, Is lest
In n sharpshooter's curve te his springy
shoulders and a Tllden tennis tilt te
his general superstructure.
If the major's tout ensemble stretched
out te the same lengths that his arms
nnd legs go, he would probably held
senatorial record for height. This dis
tinguishing characteristic of length
which Is net length, Is explained, per
haps, by his statistics.
Altheugn the soldier-candidate Is
just two inches short of the heroic six
feet,, he weighs only 145 pounds.
Personality Speaks Volumes
When young Becd decided te he a
lawyer ,tnc stage lest a icamng man et
the "Bull Deg Drummond" type the
kind of a man who Is In before you
knew it. and hns BCardilngly surveyed
the whole scene before th action be
gins. There Is n dramatic intensity,
by the way, in the mere cntrnnce of
Iteed into a room. Ills personality
seems te speak volumes just as the
closing of the deer in n drama of the
Ibsen school tells a life story.
This Impression of the candidate is
emphasized by the thoughtful yet driving
quality of his face. It Is creased with
long lines. Length of figure finds its
counterpart In his features. If he were
pale, which he Is net, he would leek
like an ascetic.
Curiously, one of Mr. Bced's hob
bies is the collection of early printing.
Hn hns probably the largest private
library of that kind in the State. Again,
Governer Sprout describes .him ns n
"thinking machine."
As n matter of fact Majer Reed is
an interesting combination of physical
agility and mental clarity. Here again
Is nnethcr paradox : hn get his physical
training en the ranches of the "Wild
West," where he spends his vacations,
nnd In the rhalk-llncd limits of fash
ienable tennis courts. All this helped
him when training for the army te win

Using a military rifle, he scored 215
out of a possible 250, and shot forty
five bull's eyes out of a possible fifty.
"Seme bhoetin'," bald the old-timers.
Likes Sheeting
The major says he likes sheeting.
Pennsylvnnlu politicians believe him
when they recall hew In twenty-four
hours he shot holes In the general re
port that he was the Grunrly candidate
for the United States Senate. Nothing
like that sheeting had ever been seen
In State politics, lie shot up the res
ervation with such geed effect that in
