New Haven, Conn, Nov 9-(UP)
 Connecticut gave it's eight cleo toral votes to President Hoover but elected a democratic United States senator and governor, complete re- turns in one of the state most hec- tic elections showed to-day.
 While President Hoover carried the normally republican state by more than 6,00Q votes. his fellow republican, Senator Hiram Bing- ham, nationally-famous advocate of beer, lost to Augustine Lonergan, democrat, by about 3,200 votes.
 Governor Wilbur l.. Cross, dem- ocrat, defeated his republican op- ponent, former Governor John H. Trumbull by more than 11,OOO votes.
 Professor Charles M. Bakewell. republican candidate for congress- man at large, ran far ahead of the rest of his ticket, topping William M. Citron, democrat, by approx imately 14,000 votes.
 . Norman Thomas, socialist can- didate for president. boiled more than six times his vote of 1923. The independent republican party of Connecticut, new dry political organization, mustered only about 10000 votes and was a negligible factor except in a few isolated To- cal contests. Scattered returns in- dicated the socialist labor and communist votes would be insig- niflcant.
