Well, I wonder who's going to be

one man who wants chance to hoe
his Roe; and another who has it in

going to be a pretty one, and from
this distance it's going to be hard to
predict the winner. (You people must

dark horse to win. But it would have
to be mighty black one to beat

dollars to doughnuts that no Eastern
Shoreman is going to allow those
Western Shore cousins to come in
and help select a First District Rep

case if the Shore Committeeman
should happen to get pig-headed.
You know, I'd like to be in trans

more back-slappin' and treatin'; more
