Many friends of Norvell w. Brickey,
of Festus, are using every possible
pressure to bear to persuade him to
consent to announce for State Sena-
tor from this District, but as yet with
apparent Indifferent success. Mr..
Brickey served overseas several
months during the World War, and
while he is comparatively young
man. he is said to be perhaps the liv-
est business proposition in his home
town. Not only that. he is man in
whom all who know him have utmost
confidence, both as to his sterling hon.
esty and splendid ability to serve
them with utmost distinction in the
Senate. The Times understands there
is perhaps a fair chance of getting
him interested in this race.
