Tuesday, September 2Sth, is
Non Partisan Primary Election
Day. On that day, the citizens
of the 32d Ward will vote for
council candidates. Only one
ballot will be given to the
voters. The names of five coun-
Gil candidates will appear
thereon three of whom are Slo-
venes. I am running against two
of these gentlemen. Therefore,
may l submit for the voters
consideration, a few facts con-
cerning my qualifications:
| was graduated from Gen.
tral Institute High School.
Joined the United States Army
in World War l. Was honorably
discharged and enrolled at Ohio
State University in my fresh
man year at college, and then
due to financial difficulties en-
rolled in Western Reserve Uni
versity, here in Cleveland. My
finances after my second year
in college were entirely ex-
hausted, whereupon, I obtained
employment with the State of
Ohio as Claims Investigator
and did some factory inspec-
tion work. While working days,
I attended a night law college
and graduated from same after
four years study. Took the
State Bar Examination and
passed. After practicing law
for approximately six months,
l was appointed assistant coun-
ty prosecutor in this county.
My work as such dealt with real
estate matters and tax prob
lens. Also, have handled juve-
nile delinquency cases. Have
practiced law in all of our state
courts and often my law work
brought me in contact with
problems involving the City of
Cleveland. l have resigned from
my office as assistant county
prosecutor to carry on my
campaign.
Two years ago my dear wife
died. She gave me a son, who
now is thirteen years old.
May l also submit only a few
things, which I will work for,
when I am elected councilman:
Improvement in bus and
street railway service, lowest
possible taxes, lake pollution to
lowest possible minimum, good
roads, regular rubbish and gar
bage collection. Cooperate with
the mayor in constructive poll
cies for the benefit of the peo-
pie.

WILDCATS AT PEAK /
FOR IRISH BATTLE
Northwestern Attack Hits
Stride After Fall
tering Start

EVANSTON, ILL, Nov g. Ia -
Northwestern's Wildcats, back in
strong stride after a faltering start,
will be at the peak of their power
against nonpareil Notre Dame Sat-
urday.
The Purple machine functloned
III low gear against Indiana and
Michigan, picked up bit of speed
in rolling over Great Lakes and
Ohio State, but didn't reach its
maximum operating efficiency I'M
til it barged through Minnesota and
Wisconsin like a laundering tank.
The two latter games-in which
the Wildcats ran up 83 points in
contrast to the Al they compiled in
four earlier contests-demonstrate
that their attack is clicking.
The fact that Notre Dame has
INDUCED in scoring splurges since
the seasons first kickoff, coupled
with the recent show of strength
by Northwestern, indicates that a
capacity crowd of $4,000 spectators
who will jam Dyche Stadium will
see a spectacular battle of offenses.
While the Purple squad as a
whole has improved, Otto Graham,
its standout star, has reached the
peak of his career, too. The Wau-
kegan, ILL.,, wizard will be in there
pitting his passing skill against the
Irish teams 18-year-old Johnny Lu-
jack and attempting to match the
running ability of Creighton Miller
Jim Mello and company.
Graham will be Notre Danes
principal stumbling block in the
path to victory. He must assume
most of the ball carrying burden
following the loss to the services
If Fullback Don Buffmire and Half
back Herman Frickey.
If the Wildcats are able to crack
the defense of the South Bend gu
permen, it probably will be Ora
hams passing that will turn the
trick. His three-year record al
ready eclipses such famed Western
conference passers as Michigan
Benny Friedman and Harry New
man, and Northwestern own
Pug" Rentner.
Graham's 1943 record of Is COM
p]etions out of 40 attempts gives
him a mark of 81 per cent. He re-
vealed that he is at razor edge
perfection when he hit four out of
five passes against Wisconsin last
Saturday for 70 yards.
Graham's backfield mates Satur.
cay will include Lynne McNutt,
quarterback Nick Vodick, fullback
and Joe Serbia, right half, all jun.
iors. McNutt won the regular quar-
terback assignment as sophomore
because of his blocking and field
generalship. Vodick was shifted to
fullback because of the scarcity Of
line plungers. The six foot, two.
inch South Bend, Ind, youngster
did not become eligible until mid
way in the season.
