BY the Associated Press.
EVANSVILLE, Ind September IT,

Wo-ThirdS Ballots Cast by
Noon in Many Cities,
Is Report.

Heavy voting and much scratch
ing" were reported throughout IN
diana today in what appeared to be
the heaviest march to the polls in
the states history.
From scattered county seats came
the word from one-flfth to one
fourth Of the normal vote was in
the ballot boxes after the first two
hours of voting. At noon two g.
thirds of the vote had been recorded
in many of these cities dispatches
indicated.
Perfect election weather climaxed
a campaign OF unusual intensity, to
cause political leaders to predict a
state vote of 100000 or more as
compared with the 1,272,390 who
four years ago expressed their pref
erenee for Coolidge and Davis.
Women Out in Force
Farmers and women descended in
large numbers on the voting places
in the forenoon, reports said. Early
hour records were broken at Rich
mond, where long lines awaited their
chance at the polls.
Women were out in nui- lberS equal
to the men in Evansville, and the
farm vote was reported heavy. This
also was the situation at Wabash.
Women waited in lines at Shelby
vile half-hour before polls opened.
At Marion some delay was occa-
stoned by the use of paper ballots,
workers believing scratching was
general.
At Hammond, East Chicago,
Whiting and other cities in the in
dustrial section, long lines indicated
an enormous vote. The foreign and
Negro vote is unusually large in East
Chicago, where, at 9 a. m, seven
times as many ballots were cast as
at the same hour in 1924. Democrats
were challenging many voters.
Machines in "a Counties
The number of Hoosiers of voting
age this year is estimated at 1885,
90. Seventy per cent of the cleo
torate voted four years ego. If the
sizzling governorship contest be-
tween Frank c. Daley, Democrat,
and Harry G.. Leslie, Republican, and
tine Hoover-Smith presidential bat
tie is any criterion of public interest,
80 per cent of the eligible voters may
be expected to go to the polls today,
politicians figured. This would
amount to soma 1,480,000.
Voting machines were in use in
twenty-four of Indiana's ninety-two
counties, giving promise of early re-
turns that will be fairly indicative
of the Indiana outcome. 1t is esti-
mated that approximately half of
the Indiana vote will be machine
tabulated and so computed readily.
