The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-09-05

Both Alderman George L. Kingston and School ConnEnis- siOner John J. Kearney today were reported resisting moves to have them seek the Republican rAOFnin- atlOn for state senator in the 18th district. Party leaders are seeking to have one or the other accept the nomination in the powerful Democratic sector, made up Of the fourth and fifth wards.
 Neither MT. Kingston nor MT. Kearney is said to agree with the claims of some c. o. F. leaders that the recent Democratic primary fight in the 16th has weakened the party's strength there and will pave the way for 2 Republican victory in November. Friends of both men sought for the nomination are urging them to stay out of the race, cOntend-

ing that Attorney John F. Tohin, who defeated the Democratic or- ganizatlOn to win the party's nomination, will almost certainly be elected.
 MT. Kearney's friends are espe- ClalIy opposed to him accepting the nomination, believing that . defeat for the state senatOrsflip would place him under . severe handicap in running for mayor on the Republican ticket next year.
 Alderman Burton H. Walker Is also mentioned as . possible cam didate for the Republicans in the l6th but he is known to have no desire for the nomination. He he- fused to allow the formation of 8 club to back his candidacy. All three men are considered possible Republican candidates for mayor in 1943.

1y Wide World.

~ Wide World.
MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 8.-Novelist
Sinclair Lewis has been rediscover-
ing his native Minnesota, hunting
out its beauty spots, marvelng at
the vastness of It's rich farmlands
and learning to know its people.
And finding out some things that
even many lifelong Minnesotans
didn't know.
His tours Of discovery, starting
from Lake Minnetonka, near here,
where he has made his home since
this spring, have made him sort
of one-man tourist bureau. At the
risk Of starting another OF the con-
troversies which have dotted his
career since he left Minnesota 40
years ago, he says that scenically
Minnesota compares with the New
England he calls his adopted home.
Besides the north shore Of Lake
Superior, others high on his list of
beauty spots are the valley Of the
st. Crox River, "as beautiful as the
Hudson, almost as beautiful as the
Rhine; the Root River Valley in
Southeastern Minnesota, and the
Mississippi River bluffs from Red
Wing to Lacrescent.
But his three-star special - the
one to which he is introducing even
longtime residents of the State-is
the Leaf Mountain area in Ottertail
County in West Central Minnesota.
Wherever he goes-and he goes
almost everywhere-he speaks glow
ingly of this range of hills, urging
upon all who will listen that they
visit Inspiration Peak from which
