of a nominee not from choice, but
from chance, if you please"
He described the growth of the
city manager movement and It's fate
and then protested against any de-
sire for the mayoralty post.
Glossbrenner's written speech was
short and devoted to praise of his
councilmanic ticket, which he said
had been hand picked" by him.
He made the same set speech at

On even terms from the start at 5:12

lined the stream on both sides, others
followed the race in automobiles along

There was color and noise in profu-

din which was heightened by the blasts
of boat whistles as the racers maneu-

others was the whistle of the Tom

prize of the late Capt. Christopher
