STATE SENATOR
HARRY w. LeGORE
Seeks Republican Nomination for Con-
gress in the Sixth District of Maryland
OF FREDERICK COUNTY

Senator LeGore has been close to
Governor Nice during the two ses-
sions of the Legislature, and in the
recent special session rendered val
liable assistance in the interest of har-
mony. He is understood to have en-
couraging assurances from Republic
can leaders throughout the District.
For some time past he has been con-
tacting prominent Republicans in the
five counties in the district, and the
promises of support received prompt
ed him to enter the field. Senator Le-
Gore is regarded as a hard cam
paigner and vote getter. He is
member of the Masonic fraternity, the
Elks and the American Legion. He
resides in Woodsboro District, is mar
ried and has two children.
Candidates Statement
Senator LeGore, in announcing his
candidacy, made the following state
ment:
During the course of my business
experience / have come intimately
in contact with all classes of people,
including the laboring man, the far
mer and the business man. / think I
understand their problems and feel
qualified to help them. My legisla-
tive experience at Annapolis, where
l served my county both in the House
of Delegates and in the State Senate,
has given me an understanding of
how best to solve the problems of the
average man by legislative action, as
well as an insight into those larger
problems which confront our nation
in these difficult times.
"The brief period between the pres
ent time and the date of the primary
on May 4th will give small opportun-
ity for discussion of national issues.
In order, however, that the people of
the Sixth District may know how 1
stand generally on some of the major
problems of the day, 1 wish to say:
/ believe that rigid economy in gov
eminent and a sound financial policy
are essential in order that confidence
in government may be restored. I
believe that individual initiative and
business enterprise have made this
country the greatest nation in the
world. I would encourage these at
tributes of our people, not shackle
them. I believe that theory of
plenty-not scarcity-will help to
solve the unemployment problem. 1
have worked among farmers all my
life. l think / understand their view
point. / have fought their battles
in the State legislature, and I think
1 could help to shape sane agricul-
tural policy. 1 have a wholesome
respect for the Constitution of the
United States; it is the bulwark of
our liberties and the safeguard of
our democratic institutions. will
vote and work to sustain it at all haz-
ards.
81 expect personally to meet as
many voters of the Sixth District as
possible in the brief time at my dis
posal, and from time to time during
the campaign 1 expect to amplify
this brief statement Of my position"

Born in Frederick county, August /,
1894, Senator LeGore is engaged in
the lime and stone business, being as
ISOLATED with his brother in an enter
prise founded by his father in 1861.
In his college days Senator LeGore
was a star athlete. While at Yale
University, where he was a student
from 1913 to 1917, and worked his
way through by conducting an eating
establishment and a tutoring school,
he acquired fame on the gridiron and
baseball diamond. He was chosen as
All-American fullback and termed by
Walter Camp as the best open field
runner and forward passer of his day.
His scholastic standing was high and
the Senior class voted him the menu
Der who had "done most for Yale"
His preparatory education was Sc
cured at Mercersburg Academy, where
he also had an enviable record.
Marine Corps Officer
At the outbreak of the War, he was
one OF ten recommended Dy the res
ident of Yale for commissions in the
Marine Corps, and he Immediately
volunteered for service. He was over
seas for two yerrs and gave valiant
service with the famous Second Di-
vision.
In 1880 Senator LeGore made his
political debut. He was elected to
the House of Delegates by a majority
of more than 1,4OO, leading the party
ticket. After serving in this legisla-
tive body, he was nominated in 1884,
following primary contest, for State
Senator, and was elected. He feels
that he has secured valuable expert
ence in legislative affairs through SER
vice in both Houses of the General
Assembly. The present Congressman
and also his predecessor advanced
over the same route.

BRIEF SUSPENSION
"The difficulty with the rae

Just suspend the trainer and the

Of barring them. I think the

most Of these doped horses are

Anslinger said he is seeking to

Leo FreiSinger and Edward

Kemper's predictions were made
after watching his team in their
first workout today. He said
everything looked okay.
The president of the Norwegian
Olympics team told International

United States.
Other foreign teams, although
naturally not conceding victory to

saying the Americans would win
more points in this branch Of the

expectation which created much
excitement among the German
and visiting team. ......

Obbtb4us
Moreover, since this seems to
be a garrulous and confiding mo-
ment, the Brooklyn club desires
to state the identity Of the four
men who probably won't play for
Brooklyn this year.
They are Charley Colbert and
Johnny Mize. of the st. Louis
Cardinals; Fred Farmhouse, Of
the Boston Braves, and Harry
Danning, Of the New York Giants.
Sam Leslie, first baseman, was
offered back to the Giants, it
seems, for Catcher Danning and
cash. Jimmy Bucher and Joe
Strip, infielders, and cash were
offered to st. Louis for Colbert
and Mize. As for Farmhouse, it
appears that he was offered to
Brooklyn for Pitcher Johnny Ba-
bich and Outfielder Gene Moore,
obtained from Rochester.
German COnfides
All Of this was vouchsafed by
Brooklyn's new man Of the buSi-
ness office, John German, who
called up to confide in the press.
He had three failures 70 announce
and added that they were strictly
for morning release. It may come
under the head Of new business
manager tells all" but at that the
man has an idea. He's for telling
you what he's trying to do. Evela
II he never does 1t.
The Giants told the Dodgers, he
went on, that they'd think it over.
The Dodgers also told the Braves
they'd think 1t over, owing to q
suspicion that the worst time to
trade Moore Is before they see
him. Mr.. Hickey, Of st, Louis, like
wise promised to consider matters
at his leisure, a remark in which
I personally would place no great
faith.
However, he has always been
high on Bucher, whom the Dodg-
ers drafted away from his, Mr..
Rickey's, Columbus farm.
Mize Looms Large
In the meantime, this Mize,
who is built upon the general
lines Of q freight car, seems to
be looming large in the plans Of
various managers. Before leaving
town last night, Jimmy Wilson,
Of Philadelphia, said the Giants
could have his first baSeman,
Camill, for $4,000 If they ar
ranged to get him Mize.
But if the latter ever hits New
York, 1t is improbable that he
will be passed on to somebody
else. Colonel Terry Is looking for
some bright young man to play
the eighth and ninth innings for
him on hot afternoons in st.
