In conferring honor upon ex- Gov. Wilbur l.. Cross at Hartford Tuesday by nominating him for the short senatOral term Demo- crats made a netxeretaoinmmmm crats made an extremly smart move. Not only will they have two campaigners to stack up against Gov. Raymond E. Bald win on the Republican side, but they will have the benefit of the name of Cross and the magic it still holds for many voters of Connecticut. There will be many an independent voter who will hesitate before voting against ''Uncle Toby" and Democrats cer- tainly didn't overlook that pos sibility.
 Republicans certainly booted the ball around" in Joe" Talbots case Insistence of COP. delegates to the congressional convention last Saturday in nominating him despite his announced intentions of refus- ing to run was certainly the prize boner of this political season. Ii Democrats carry the Fifth District this Fall one of the factors re- sulting in such victory will be this Republican blunder, for which of course, Democratic thanks are now being profusely extended on all sides
