Analysed

At the Headquarters of the nonpar-
tisan committee having in charge the
campaign of Judge Kunkel for the
State Supreme Court bench to-day
those who have been directing the
work were very optimistic. Favorable
reports have been received from all
parts of the State, but the fight is be-
ing vigorously waged by the other
candidates, and the members of the
committee feel that now is the time
for Judge Kunkels friends in Dau-
phin county to show their colors.
The campaign has been so one-sided
in Dauphin county that it is feared
some voters may neglect to vote the
nonpartisan ticket because they feel
that Judge Kunkel will have votes and
to spare. But elsewhere over the State
and especially in the more populous
centers friends of the other candidates
