In addition the National Com- mittee has on hand disputes in- volving three district delegates from Georgia, two from Kentucky and one from Tennessee. The indications are that contests for four delegates-at-large seats from South Carolina and two district delegates from the Third Con- gressional District of Tennessee would not be pressed. For the most part the contests {dential candidacy of Secrtary ,Herbert Hoover. It is conceiv- lable that the decisions might contribute to his nomination or {failure to muster the necessary convention strength to go over.

Miss Anna Nicholas, literary editor of the Indianapolis Star, gave the late James Whitcomb Riley the inspiration and help he needed, when ag a timid country boy he came to her desk with his earliest poems. Painstakingly she aided him in developing the ideas which won him fame. Years later another noted au- thor, Meredith Nichelson, found Miss Nicholas a literary tutor whose suggestions lhelped him train his imagination into the channels which carried him to the front rank of American fic- tion writers, “Miss Nicholas has been the | most steadfast friend Indiana Mt- erary aspirants ever had,” says Nicholson “She has been the shrewd discoverer of many fledg- ling bards amd story tellers wh» have brought honor to the state.” Mi Nicholas glories in the achievements of others. She had her own dreams of becoming an author but side-tracked them for the nowspaper work shop. She has, however, written two vol umes of stories, “An Idyl of the Wabash,” and “The Making of Thomas Barton.” She was associate editor of the r for a time, later becoming its literary editor.
