DAWSON LEADS
ALEXANDRIA
VOTEUPSET
Close Battle Held Triumph for
School Foes of Present
Municipal Regime

Climaxing a political campaign
that waxed warm in its final
days, Alexandria Dem o Gratis
yesterday nominated three at
large and six ward candidates
for the general election for city
council to be held June 5. It
was an upset for the local ma
chine"
A close vote marked the elec-
ton, in which e. c. Dawson, a
member Of the council from the
sixth ward, led the at-large
winners with 1880 votes. DR..
j. T. Ashton was second with
1859, while A. Slater Lamond
polled 1898 to nose out Mayor
e. F.. Ticer who received 1926.
Woman Runs Last
Fifth place was taken by W..
Greenan who got 818, to lead
Paul L. Delaney by one vote.
Mrs. c. M. Shepperson, only
woman to make the race, was
last with 538.
The hottest contests were in
the wards where three of the
present members were eliminated.
Percy E. Cliff polled AIS in the
third to beat Councilman M. T.
Dwyer who got 220. Council
man N. J. Lawler lost out by
eight votes in the fourth to
George K. Bender, who had 27S.
Charles L. Burgess had 279 in
the sixth, beating Councilman
George E. Garrett, who porled
1913.
Councilman Louis C. Barley of
the second ward was the one
ward candidate to return. He
polled 2O1 to 10 for F. c.
Pullin, and 81 for r. F. Down
ham. John D. Matter, who was
unopposed in the first, polled
$40.
Schools Play Part
Schools played an important
part in the election which is
considered a victory for those
who have opposed the present
councils attitude. DR.. ]. T.
Ashton is a former member of
the school board.
Mr.. Dawson, who will prob
ably be mayor in view of his
large vote, is labor leader. The
mayoralty goes to the candidate
getting the highest vote in the
general election.
Mr.. Lamond is a terra Gotta
manufacturer and son of former
Councilman c. c. Lamond.
Defeat of Mayor Ticer, who has
held council posts for 16 years,
was one of the upsets Of the
election. While Mr.. Ticer was not
expected to run first, he was
given good chances of winning.
Mr.. Lamond, who has never run
for office before, beat Mr.. Ticer
by only three votes.

R|TCH|E KEEPS
SEAT ONFENCE

BALTIMORE, April 4.-Gover-
nor Ritchie is still undecided as
to whether he will run for the
United States Senate this year or
run for the fifth term as governor
of Maryland.
Many of his political hackers
are urging him to run for the Sen
ate, pointing out that unless he
does so his political life would end
with the fifth term.
When that term expired in 1898,
and he sought seat in the Sen.
ate, they point out, he would be
forced to run against his close
ally, Senator Millard E. Tydings.
If he seeks the Senate seat this
year he is practically assured of
the nomination without opposi-
ton, observers declared.
Other friends believe the COVER
nor would prefer five terms, even
if it means retirement at the end
of that period, rather than 60 to
the Senate at this time.

Often, Mr.. Hambleton says, a liv.

than a hundred feet from the hive
before dropping it on the ground.
AT present among the several
dozen hives at the Somerset la.
boratories, the surrounding ground
is covered with thousands Of dead

ROAMING THE AIR WAVES

Phil Baker who, twenty years ago, started his theatrical career as. secretary to Carl Laemmle, is Laemmle in the forthcoming mu- sical revue "The Gift of Gab.".
 Phfl's job with. Carl Laemrnle will be somewhat different from the one he first landed with the moving picture veteran. Phil for merly handed out checks to Mary and Lottie Pickford, King Baggott and other stars of the early days. His own salary check this time will be about 2,000 times, or 100000 per cent, larger than it once was with ,Laemmle.
 From his job as Laemmle's sec retary, Baker became a theater pianist. Vaudeville followed, then came session in the navy and Btardom in a number of revues. He has been starring on NEG net works as the Jester for many months, sandwiching in theatrical and vaudeville engagements be- tween broadcasts.
 Kate Smith will sing the
 four numbers most requested
 in her mail when she returns
 to radio, after seven months
 absence, on, a thrice weekly
 schedule = each Monday,
 Thursday and Friday at 8 D.
 m., EDST-On Monday, July
 16. Miss Smith never has
 sung one of the four songs into
 the microphone, although it is
 probable that every other
 singer of the popular type has
 offered it's music and lyrics.
 It is "Smoke Gets in Your
 Eyes," which came into favor
 after she left the studios. A
 newer tune, also to be sung
 by her for the first time, is

Classical music, including sym phony orchestras, artists recitals, string ensembles and similar fea- lures, now occupies 23 per cent of the total air time on the Columbia Broadcasti7g System.

 Altogether, 26 hours of classi- cal music each week are available for ,adio listeners, while all other types of programs consume 85 hours. The average radio day of the CBS program output is 16 hours.
