corps during the World War. His
military service dates back further
| than that however, as he was with
| the old md Maine on the border
during the Mexican difficulties. He
was one Of the prime movers in the
organiZa ton of the George n. Bour-
que post of Waterville and was its
first commander.
Those who are in position to
know, are anticipating a torrid fight
Perhaps the candidate with the
strongest backing throughout the
state is Frank E. Southland of this
city. Southland gave Major Towne a
pretty race for the honor at the
Lewiston convention, and had made
no campaign previous to the cleo
ton at all. His name was placed
before that convention by the Port
land delegation, and Frank Is as
sured of the support of the Legion
aires down Cumberland county way
again this year, and he Will un.
doubtedly develop strength in almost
every section. Mr.. Southland has been
active in the Kennebec councils and
has this delegation with him 100 per
cent. He was commander of the
James Fitzgerald Post No. of this
city in 1921. one of the most sue
cessful years since it's organiza-
ton.
It has been reported that Albert
Beliveau of Rumford. who like
Southland is an attorney. has an
nounced that he will make bid for
the honor of being vice commander.
There have been rumblings from
other sections of the state, and
dark horse or two may flash up on
the race to the wire. But all In all,
those who have been closest in touch
with the general sentiment, believe
that the Towne- Southland ticket IS
about the strongest possible combi-
nation, and will be winner at
Pressure Isle in September.
James L. Boyle of Waterville who
has served the department since its
organization in 1919, as adjutant. will
undoubtedly continue in that office.
after the next election: Jimmy
