Sussex COP DIR. Dolan Has
Women's Club Written Book
Meet AT Lewes On Delaware
Group Will Not Endorse
Amy Candidate For
Nomination Until Af-
ter The Convention.

Sussex County Republican WO-
mems Club, meeting at the Lewes
Yacht Club last week, passed a
resolution that the club as an or
ganization could not endorse any
candidate for nomination but would
actively support all Republican
candidates after they had been
nominated.
The resolution was written by
Mrs. Lillian I. Martin and present
ed to the club by Mrs. Otis H.
Smith, immediate past president.
Mrs. Martin explained that the
resolution was considered advis-
able since some other Republican
women's organizations have made
official endorsements of candidates,
including the New Castle County
Club.
"Our bylaws forbid such action
on the part of the Sussex County
club" she said. However, the
members may take whatever action
they please as individuals or in
their official capacities within the
party organization"
Mrs. Herbert Calhoun. Dagsboro.
new president of the county club,
presided for the first time at this
meeting.
She appointed her standing COM
mittee chairmen as follows:
Program: Mrs. Virginia Grier,
Milford; Public Relations. Mrs.
Ruth Hoch, Bridgeville: Sunshine,
Mrs. Clarissa Henry, MillsbOro;
Publicity, Mrs. Martha Tim1nons,
