Edward Warfield of White township, reported that at 3 o’- clock a. m., Wednesday a neighbor, Ralph McConnell, awakened him and declared there was some one in the Warfield barn. Warfield asserted that he and McConnell went to the barn where they heard someone prowling around, but the invader escaped. The two men then entered a car and went in search of the intruder. War- field asserted that he and McConnell heard a shot from a nearby woods. Leaving the car he found the calf with its right leg shot off. Again the two men, according to | Warfield, went on the trail of the culprit. McConnell, then according to the story told the county detectives, saw two men, who fired at him and he returned the fire, firing four time from a .25 caliber automatic pistol. No one was injured. Failing to catch the culprits McCon- nell and Warfield according to the lat- ter, then returned and killed the calf. No clue has been found of the alleged robbers. G. O. P. PROPOSES TO AMEND THE ELECTION LAWS IN THE STATE Harrisburg—Amendments to the 1937 legislature’s huge codification of election laws to prevent a candidate defeated at the primary from running — in the general election on a third par- | ty ticket, were introduced in the sen- ate by Elections ‘Committee Chair- man, Lewis E. Farrell of Philadelphia. The situation to be avoided in the amendment has never arisen since the election code was adopted but the pos- sibility that it might was uncovered after the bitter Democratic guberna- torial primary last year. The code requires all partie not par- ticipating in the primary to file its preemption papers and nominations before the primary but it does not prevent substitution of a candidate de- feated for major party nomination for a preempted candidate who might withdraw, A third party, the Pathfinders, was preempted before the 1938 primary and all its candidates but one later withdrew. If the preemptors had ag- reed, defeated candidates for Demo- cratic or Republican nominations could have made a three way fight of the election at which Arthur H. James was chosen Governor. None of these candidates choose to do so. Other election code amendments would permit any “qualified” voter to assist another voter instead of only an election official and permit a candi- date who has been certified by the Secretary of the Commonwealth and County Election Board as elected, to serve pending adjucation of any con- tests of his apparant majority.
