|DANAHER TO WIN
 MERIDEN BATTLE
Edward ]. Ryan Predicts Victory for Republican
 MayOralty Candidate

Edward J, Ryan of Thomaston, political commentator and analyst today made ventured predictions about the outcome of the city elec- ton now being held In the city of Meriden where Francis R. Danaher, present mayor Is running for re- election. His opponent, Q Democrat, is Harold c. Hall.
 Said Mfr. Ryan The election in Meriden between Francis R. Eana- her and Harold o. Han will be close, But, after Q close canvass of the city of MerIden, I predict that
 FRANCIS R. DANAIEER WILL BE REELECTED,
 base this prediction on the fact that the people of Merlden appre- ciate the type Of good clean govern ment that Danaher's administration has given to that city and they will show their confidence in Danaher by keeping him as their mayor"
 Mir. Ryan will be recalled as the radio political commentator who made long series of accurate predic- tions.
 The election today has been feat. ured by Q personnal campaign of United States Senator Francis T. Maloney who has made a number of speeches in behalf Of MT, Hall, Danaher, R brother of United States Senator John A, Danaher and son of Labor Commissioner Cornelius J, Danaher has conducted . vigorous campaign, his brother or his fathe' have not spoken In his behalf feel- Ing that Francis apparently can win on his own, an opinion which Is also shared by MT.

 Bogash and Bardine really stole tho show with their colnieal imper- sonatlons of two dFunkS, The only drawback with their act was their failure to offer an encore. for the deafenlng applause certainly war; fanted more than a bow, However, 1t was not the performers fault the encore was left hanging in air, for a time limit Is effective on their skit,
 Miss Montay pleased In both her acrobatie dances which were really something to see. Harry Ryan, straight man, also went over big, in fact he's one of the best straight men who played Jacques since bur- lesque opened. Comedian Irving Benson also merlted the applause offered, for his horrlfying eXempll- fication Of pr. Jekyll and Mir. Hyde would put Spencer Tracy to shame,
 Miss DeFee, six feet four inches, is really easy on the eyes. A former bouncer In Leon and Eddies famous Greenwich Village eatery the tall brunette might have been accorded more applause than she received had she not appealed to the paying customers for it after each of her two numbers. Other tantaliSing Spe- cialty artists are brunettes, Joan Collette and Doris Karr, both of whom do a bit of straight work in addition to partly-stripping.
