(Continued from page 1) morning, Miss Gainey stated that “the coming musical presentation will thrill the hearts of the citizens of Dunn. Anyone who misses this operetta will be deprived of the opportunity for an evening of . fine and enjoyable entertainment.” | "The Music of Stephen Foster” j Miss Gainey continued “is loved ! by all people and I feel sure that each person who attends will be humming the melodies to himself following the show as I have been doing since witnessing the show in Goldsboro on Sunday." The Little Theater personalit yalso observed that the characters in the operetta protray their roles in an excellent fashion and was particularly im. pressed with the individual and choral numbers by the cast. Miss Gainey urged the citizens to Dunn to attend the mu/cal presentation as it will be in town for Only one performance. TWO ACT OPERETTA The musical will be in two acts and the scene will take place in the garden of Colonel Stauton’s home in Kentucky around the year 1850. All the favorite melodies of the immortal music of Stephen Foster will be heard either through individual or choral singing by the cast. The operetta will have a ten minute intermission at half-time. Miss Evelyn Gainey who is the General Chairman of the comjng operetta which is being sponsored by the Sacred Heart Church of Dunn announced the growing in terest in the forthcoming musical and indicated that a large turn out of people from Dunn and Har nett County area could be ex pected. Miss Gainey stressed the point of S'Uuring tickets beforehand from the various places in town even though they may be obtained at the door. Tickets will be seventy-five cents for adults and i forty cents for children. LOCATION OF TICKETS Besides the Ticket Committee; who have been active during the past week, tickets may be obtained from the following place in town: First Citizens Bank and Trust Company; Skinny’s Esso Station; Auto Sales and Service; Automo tive Supply; Butler-Carrol Drug Store; Upchurch’s and Johnson’s Restaurant, south of town on U. S. 301. Biggest Vote (Continued from »nel) was 516,864 in the 1936 first pym ary; and the all-time high for any candidate was the 266,354 votes. That majority was larger numerically though slightly less percentage-wise, than the 185,027 cast for Gregg Cherry over the sapie Ralph McDonald’s 134,661 in the 1944 primary. There is some talk about one or the other candidates this year winning by 100,000 or more. It doesn't make much sense in the light of history. The biggest margin, both in number of votes and in percen tage, by which any candidate fori Governor has won the nomination j since the primary was inaugurated was the nearly 68,000 won by A. W. McLean over J. W. Bailey sh 1924. The official vote was 151,- 197 to 83,573. BROUGHTON SMALLEST ' The smallest primary vote by which any candidate has won the nomination for Governor since wo man suffrage doubled the poten tial was the 147,386 given J. M.l Broughton in 1940. That was a seven-way contest and runner-up W. P. Horton, who had polled 105.916 in the first primary, did not call for a run-off. Broughton had less than one-third of the total vote, but his lead over Horton was almost 42,000. Within a few days after the first primary A. J. Maxwell, who had been third with more than 102,000 and Lee Gravely, who had run fourth with 63,000, announced their support of Brough ton “majority” stood at 42,000. The narrowest margin recorded for a winning candidate was 13,000 for J. C. B. Ehringhaus over R. T. Fountain in the 1932 run-off. Ehringhaus had 182,055 to Foun tain’s 168,971. Four years ago, in 1948, latest previous race for Governor, Kerr Scott led Charles M. Johnson in the second primary 217,620 to 182,684 for a majority of about 35,000 after trailing by 9,000 in the first. The banner Democratic primary vote in history was cavt two years ago when 618,479 persons expressed their choice among four candidates for the United States senate. In the second primary 542,903 ballots were cast, resulting in a majority of about 20,000 for Willis Smith— who had trailed Frank Graham by some 53,000 the first time. ! With the margin of, victory for successful candidates for Governor during the past 36 years ranging from 13,000 to 68,000. and the differential in the biggest primary vote ever cast for any office being 20,000, it is hardly likely that the present contest will show as much as 100,000 difference, despite the optimistic claims of candidates and managers. HEAVY VOTE WOULD HELP OLIVE There is general belief that a heavy vote, which this times means excess of 550,000, will benefit Olive because traditionally a large vote helps the challenger. A great many Umstead supporters concede that a large vote wil\ meat* a small* per centage majority lor their man, although they Insist it will mean a bigger numerical margin. And elections are won, they say, by votes—not by percentage marks. If the 1950 primary vote Is to be used as bads for estimating the 1952 tum-out It 1$ Reports Strike End Mis/ r; '-jHr &W ■ ffl&mk iy * ml/ ■■ * ’ 'SmmM 1 1 W M S | f|||| B \ , siSt 1 I*l ■BB^.'.. uu FEDERAL MEDIATOR Cyrus Ching is pictured as he testified before the Senate Labor Committee in Washington.

Eisenhow er today pocketed 22 Con necticut votes in the Repub lican national convention, but pro-Taft forces gained the upper hand in the battle for the 38 Texas GOP votes. Opposing Texas Democratic fac tions appeared set to send separate delegations to the Chicago con vention. KENTUCKY FOR BARKLEY Kentucky Democrats met today and gave Vice President Alben W. Barkley 26 votes for the pres idential nomination. In San Antonio, the Democratic Party of Texas was split wide open when "loyalists” bolted the' state convention over the issue of man datory support of the national or ganization's presidential nominee. POLICE INTERVENE The “loyal Democrats” pledged to back the national ticket, walk ed out ,of the meeting after heated debate on their proposal to bar any delegate who would not take the party loyalty pledge. Their exit was marked by brief scuffles which alert police quickly cut short. that two records will be set this year, and the political statisticians !%iven a paradox to work on in future elections. The losing candidate may re ceive more votes than any winner before him, the winning .candidate may run up sie largelt majority ever recorded fpr a Democratic nominee for Gpvernor, both, in the same - election. There is historic precedent, but small comfort for the loser, in such development. A1 Smith was the only Democratic candidate for President to lose the North < Caro lina electoral'vote since reconstruc tion days—and in the election which he lost he received almost 100,000 more votes than any;, win ning candidate had ever ' bedn given before in this state. ; i One;,,of' the best wise-cracks ever made <• about election returns was the late J. M. Broughton’s appraisal of the Wendell Willkie vote in' 1940. Asked by a reporter ' what. he thought -of the .Willkie J showing. Governor Broughton replied: ."It wap • highly complimentary, but utterly .Inadequate.” Erwin Texew Team Won Two Games The Erwin textile union baseball team won two games during the past weekend. Texew topped Coats on Saturday night in the Dunn Park by an overwhelming 15 to 2 score, and the Erwin team won a 7-1 decision over Wade on the Er win field on Sunday afternoon. J. D. Faircloth, who played with the Harnett County American Le gion team last summer, was the star of the game for the TWUA boys on Saturday night as he hur led a four-hit job and led the hit ting. J. D. made three hits in four I times at bat, including a three bagger. » ’ *WR coats scored in the opening in ning and held a one-run lead un til the third, and Texew scored three times in the third to sew up the ball game. Coats got its other run in the third round, and Envin scored two or more runs in every innings from the third through the seventh and last inn ing. Jack Stewart, Mac Turlington, and O. C. Bass got 1 for 3 each for Coats. Bass’ blow was a triple. COATS 101 000 o—2 4 5 TEXEW 003 253 2—15 14 1 Algie Faircloth smashed a triple as he got 4 for 5 to lead Texew to its 7-1 win over Wade on Sun day. Pitcher John Lee and Boozie Royals did some hitting also as i they got 2 for 4 each. James Brown got 2 for 5. Lee held Wade to give hits in registering the victory, and his two hits boosted his showing. McNeill and McPhail got 2 for 4 and 1 for 4 for the losers. The Erwin players got 12 hits off Wade offerings, and they scor ed in five different innings. The two runs in the second frame clin ched the win.
