ably be the principal speaker on the DEM
ocratic side in the Senate.
Mr. Shafrer will also make a speech in
his own behalf.
Senator Mcneil will present the case
for the Republicans and it is understood
that he expects to make his reputation
as a speaker in this contest.
Several Republican Senators will oppose
the seating of Getzendanner. Messrs.
Gramm and Young have announced their
intention of voting against it, and il is
believed that Messrs. Farr, Hoge and Cook
will also oppose it,
They say it would be bad politics TO
deprive Senator Shaffer of his seat. even
though it may be deemed a party neces-
sity.
Although there will be several Republi-
can votes recorded against Getzendanner,
there will be enough TO seat him.
Senator Shaffer says personally he does
not care what the Republicans may do,
but he feels it to be his duty to make the
best fight for the party that can be made.
1t is said here tonight that the unseat-
