Davey, Kent, democrat picked by Ohio voters to make the November race for Governor, political observ- ers alreadyv are predicting a battle of even greater .ntensity than that witnessed in the republican primary between Cooper and Congressman James T Begeg. of Sandusky. The neck-and-neck race for the republican gubernatorial nomina- tion between Cooper and Begg went into Ohio political history as one of the most spectacular on record, with the final result still questioned by supporters of the Sandusky con- gressman, who await the complete official returns from the secretar: of state. It is doubtful whether the official vote for each candidate will ba known before next week omplete unofficial returns com- piled by the Associated Press gave Cooper, a Cincinnati businessman supported by the Ohio loon League ,a plurality of 5568 votes over Begg. who also had dry back- ing. Attorney General Edward C Turner, who openly attacked the Anti-Saloon nd certain public utility intere which he charged had joined gue to control state legislation, was a poor third in a six cornered race The final vote stood: Cooper 259,725; Begg 25 red Kohler, former mayor of Cleveland, Harry A.
