said to have been written by Judge
O'Toole on club stationery urging
the reelection of Doctor A. Frances
Foye, as president, and the candi-

that the Judge used club stationery
"for political purposes"
Mrs. Grattan Kerans, candidate
for corresponding secretary on the
ticket opposed by Mrs. O'Toole, said
her objection to the letter Is the
use of the clubs official name and
