Only One Contest
For Shrine Office
As II Move Up
Harold Lloyd Among
Trio Seeking Outer
Guard Post
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, June 2S.-Shriners
began another dawn-todawn pro-
gram of hilarity, horseplay and
pageantry today, leavened by the
annual election Of officers.
Eleven Of the IL elective ofiices
were filled automatically, as officers
Of the Imperial Divan moved up.
Only contested election was the
campaign for esteemed outer guard,
with a veteran movie star, q Phila-
delphia publisher and a Baltimore
engineer seeking the post.
Harold Lloyd, star of cinema
comedies since pie-throwing days;
William Helm, potentate OF Lu Lu
Temple, Philadelphia, and John H.
link, Baltimore, director-general of
the convention, were locked in a
three-way battle for the post that
leads automatically to the imperial
potentate's diadem in 1851.
Today's program also calls for

and visit Mount Vernon. A parade
Is slated in Baltimore at 8 o'clock
tonight. 1t will pass a reviewing
stand at the city stadium and will
include a special division of COM
mercial floats.
Today's morning session found the
$4,000 Shriners and their attendant
visitors weary after long night of
revelry that saw traffic snarled in
automotive Gordon knots at all
principal intersections of Balti-
more's narrow, tortuous streets, a
survival of Colonial days, which were
III adapted to the test of major
national convention.
Augmented details of police off,
GERS, two to six to a corner, sought
to unscramble the packed mass of
honking cars, but their functions
were usurped and nullifed by
Shriners.
The delegates, 10000 strong.
marched for three hours before 200,-
600 Baltimoreans yesterday in their
first parade of the convention week.
