Imperial Valley press., 1922-07-21
s. FILE FOR
PRIMARY

So far as Imperial valley is concern.
ed at least, there seems to be a possi-
bility that Congressman Phil d. Swing
will squeeze through the August phi
mary and even the November election.
In official filings which closed last
night, Imperial county democrats nom
mated him as their candidate for cor
gress. He was elected as republicaa
and is running fer reelection as repu 5-
lican without opposition on that tick. :.
This makes Swing bipartisan and lars
ly unanimous.
A. L. Hubbell of CaleXico is also .
two party choice for @ssembl- msG
from this district.
When the county clelN offi1e closed
last night, the last day for filing nom
ination papers for thu August primar-
