WASHINGTON, June 2.-UP)-
The campaign for President Hoo
ver's nomination for reelection
was conducted with unique simplic-
ity. The outcome never was in
doubt.
The President made no formal
announcement of his candidacy.
There was no proclamation from
the Chief Executive that his hat
was in the ring.
1t was q family affair. with a
small group Of administration
leaders seeing to it that the Hoo
yer movement progressed smooth
ly. In the group were Secretary Of
War Patrick J. Hurley, Postmaster
General Walter Brown. Secretary of
Agriculture Arthur Hyde, Secre-
tary Of the Treasury Mills, together
with Lawrence Richey and Walter
Newton, members of the Presi-
dents Secretariat
These men met FOR the first time
as a Hoover organization some time
after the first OF the year. They
held occasional, irregular meetings
from time to time during the first
month or two and during the
months when state primaries or
conventions were being held, every
week or so, they met once or twice
a week to compare notes.
They had the expert advice and
cooperation of Robert Lucas, eX-
ecutive chairman Of the Republi-
can national committee, and Ray
Benjamin, Of California, one of the
Presidents closest advisors.
The President was considered a
candidate for the nomination from
the start. He, personally, how
ever, remained in the background

CARRIERS BOOM
FOR NOMINATION
REAL SURPRISE

WASHINGTON, June 2.-UR)-
The convention campaign Of
Senator John Nance Garner has
been one which the energetic can
didate has accepted as one Of the
occurrences which fate sometimes
dumps into the laps of men.
When his name was first men
toned, probably none took the
matter less seriously than did Gar
ner himself. First mention of the
Garner for President boom came
when he was still too occupied
with the duties of his new office
to pay it much attention.
1t was early that month that a
group Of home town citizens in
Uvalde, Tex, formed what was un-
doubtedly the first "Garner-for-
President" club. 1t had all the ear
marks Of just being one Of those
many gracious tributes the folks
back home were paying to the local
boy who made good.
Certainly, up to that time very
few persons in the country had
heard Of John Nance Garner in a
more than casual way. His precip-
ltation into the front pages Of the
country came largely through hard
times and a close political division
in the House.
Then, as on every public occa-
sion since Garner refused to turn
aside from the newly acquired
tasks of seeing important legisla-
ton through congress to take no.
tice of the baby boom. Later when
publisher William Randolph Hearst
| came out broadly with an endorse
ment of the veteran Texas legis-
lator and the boom assumed man
sized proportions, he still refused
to take note of it.
The response of his thousands of
admirers and friends forced him to
take a degree of cognizance, if not
interest in it.
This he did by naming his close
friends and fellow legislator, Rep.
! Samuel Rayburn, to handle the
maze of correspondence.
Rayburn established a desk in a
small office near the House Inter
state and Foreign Commerce COM
mittee room, the committee over
which he presides, and employed a
young woman to handle the mail.
Much TO Rayburn's disappointment,
however, most of the answers were
obliged to be couched in almost
| Oppa tive IoOUuaoa
Probably the only positive step
taken by Garner himself was when
he permitted William Gibbs Nc
Adoo as leader Of a group of pri-
vate citizens to enter his name in
the California preferential pri-
maries.
The California primaries gave
Garner a huge lead over both OF
his eastern contenderS and seri-

Vacation Bible
School Popular
With Children

The daily vacation Bible school
at the First Baptist church has
received a ready response from the
boys and girls and men and Wo-
men of this community, according
to Rev Carl Harwood, pastor. The
attendance has been very gratify-
ing and those who attended the
first day were SO enthusiastic that
the school more than doubled the
second. Mr.. and Mrs. Mills with
their magic Illustrations, songs and
Bible drills give the children some
thing to look forward to every day.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mills have worked
with 125,000 boys and girls in the
past 10 years and know just how
to win the hearts of juveniles. The
Christian church daily vacation
Bible school will unite with the
Baptist church Bible school and
the two will continue together.
This will be a great help to both
schools and will give all the chill
dren of the community a better
opportunity to get the most out Of
the studies. The school will con-
tinue at the Baptist church and
the teachers of the Christian
church will be united with the
teachers of the Baptist church in
carrying on the work. The classes
are so large that many teachers
are needed to care for them. The
songfest and Bible study will con-
tinue each evening and treat is
in store for all.
All the children of the Christian
church are requested to be at the
Baptist church tomorrow morning
at 9 o'clock and all adults are
urged to attend the evening Bible
study at 7:30 p. m.

Dempsey Romance

Screen Actress

HOLLYWOOD, June 2. U.P)-
Jack Dempseys mysterious. allur-
ing feminine companion in San
Francisco and Reno was revealed
today to be Lima Basquette, of the
Follies and of the films.
Miss Basquette's own mother was
responsible for tearing the veil
from "Rosita Gonzales" and reveal
ing her as the flashing, dark-eyed
dancer whose identity has been
the cause Of much conjecture.
The revelation followed charges
made recently by Teddy Hayes,
former trainer for Dempsey and
friend Of Miss Basquette, that the
eX-champion had stolen my girl"
and a subsequent denial by Demp-
sey that his companion at a recent
party was actually Miss Basquette.
7 guess she is using the name
Rosita Gonzales to prevent trouble
in the form Of reprisal by Mr..
Hayes or his friends said Mrs.
Ernest Belcher, Miss Basquette's
mother. =

her name would not be linked with
Dempsey's as it has been,7 Mrs.
Belcher said. But Lima is of age
and has her own life to live. I
find I cannot keep up with my lit
tie girl any longer"
Mrs. Belcher said that although
the two have been seen frequently
together, she was not aware of any
romance between them. Neither
had she knowledge of a reported
plan by Dempsey to open a night

AUCTION SALE
DLSP0SES OF
DEMPSEY HOME
BY RONALD WAGNER
United Press Staff Correspondent

HOLLYWOOD, Calf, June O.
The beautiful home Jack Dempsey
built for Estelle Taylor, his wife,
has gone under the auctioneer's
hammer and Miss Taylor has be-
come a member of that exclusive
film colony which suns at Malibou
beach.
The home was on Los Feliz drive
on the edge of Hollywood. 1t hao
a heart-shaped swimming pool, a
minute gymnasium where Jack
trained before his big fights
bygone days, an auxiliary hous
with a theater in which Estelle
viewed her pictures. In fact
was some house.
All of these things, so nice
see and enjoy, were the ultim
reason for the sale. Some month
the Dempseys (and later Estelle
alone) found the bills for main
tenance around $780, When the
divorce came Miss Taylor got the
house and soon reached the con-
clusion that Malibou Beach was
the place to be.
THE house was too big to live
in alone" she said. And SO the
crowds came, tramped all over the
lawn, carted away most of the
fashionable furnishings and watch
ed the passing of the Dempsey
Taylor menage.
A grand piano upon which Miss
Taylor used to play and sing to
Dempsey was knocked down to the
highest bidder. The $4,000 hand
painted Venetian bedroom suite
went at a fraction of the original
valuation.
Imported vases, beautiful car
pets, drapes and costly paintings
were put up and auctioned off.
Neither of the principals ap-
peared to watch the event. Estelle
was at one of the studios and Jack
back from his transforming tour,
is again Mr.. Dempsey, the business
man, with everyday troubles of
his own.
Dempsey owned the Hotel Bar
bara in Los Angeles and sold it
when times were good. Paper
must have been involved in the
transaction because the hotel came
back TO Dempsey. The only thing
he could do was to run it.
Miss Taylor and Dempsey are
added to the list of Hollywood di-
Vorced couples who still speak. In
fact, smiles are exchanged. The
other night they danced together
in a Culver City cafe. Reconcile

,, When this Is true there is a simple
program of living which will restore
her to normal health.
My endeavor is always to stimulate
interest in physical activity, preferably
out OF doors. Often I reorganize the.
entire eating habits of the woman, so
that her diet will include a high per-
centage of those matchmaking foods,
the fresh fruits and vegetables of the
bulky, juicy type such as cabbage, toma-
toes, onions, spinach, broccoli.
For these clients I put strict limits
upon the heavy foods which clog the
system and make even the most in
dustrious person feel sluggish and
earthbound. I prescribe the lighter
meats, including fish, and give them q
number of tempting suggestions that
will make their beauty menus seem at
| tractive instead of prohibitive.
There is one very wholesome meat
dish which I have recommended to
many who are not fond of a strict fruit
and vegetable program. It is chicken
combined with pineapple in way that
retains all of the meat juices.
Chicken and pineapple in aSpic-This
recipe can be made up early in the

from boiled beet and some little fancy

cold boiled beets make an attractive

fective.
A daisy garnish is easily arranged by

around the slice of the yolk that you
should use for the yellow center. If

1t should not be much more trouble

way instead of stewing up large dish
of one fruit, which soon becomes tire
some.
More imagination could be used in
serving home-canned fruits and pre-
serves which seem an old story when
passed around in the same way, day
after day. As relish with meats,
or as a spread for toast and mullins
we use them But there are many
other ways to serve that stock of pre-
serves and Jams which belong to every
well regulated household.
One way is to make delicious assorted
tarts Of them. Make them for lunch
con or supper menus. Make them, too
