" WALGOTT NAMED FOR SENATORSHIP (Continued from Page 26) Whe appeared shortly after ten. There were many persons in the gallery, more than is usual at the second day ef & vepublican conven. tion. The delegates were in thelr seats promptly and delay in calling te opder was due to committees be- ing held at the hotel. Start at 10:33 A. M. Immediately after Chairman Mer- ritt dropped his gavel at 10:23 the temporary orgunization was made permanent and credentials and other committees except that en plattorm, made their reports which were accepted clearing the way for presentation of names for United States senator. Former Governor Marcus H. Holcomb, whom repub- licans like .to call “Uncle Marcus,” went on the stage and applause swept the delegates. He was assist- €d to. his seat by Senator Bingham. Mr. Holcomb was all amiles and he evidently well relished the ovation he received. The rules committes report was read by Executive Secretary Edward L. Kelly. Col. Ullman of New Ha- ven, whose seat was on an aisle far in the rear, and® Deputy Attorney General E. L. Averill spoke on the report which was accepted, and on further motion the recommendation adopted. Change Adopted The change in rules adopted was as follows: #/% o ¢ except in citles which in- clude more than one senator diatrict the caucuses for the nomination of representatives and justices of the peace may be held on the same date as that for the election of the dele- gates to the state, congressional and senatorial conventions but in such cage, the city or town convention fop the purpose of nominating such representatives or justice of the peace .hall be held on the date set byithe state control cominittee for cajgicuses for that purpose in the re- maining towns of the state.” The rule offered by Col, Ullman and rejected was as follow! “Whenever a town casts more that 8,750 republican votes for gov- crfior at the previous election it shall be entitled to one additional dele- gate to the state conventions and thereafter it shall be entitled to an additional delegate for every 2,500 republican votes or a major portion thereof in excess of said 3,760 votes” Blodgett Talks A motion was made to proceed to an informal ballot for United States senator without nominating speeches. Tax Commissioner Blodgett asked that Litchfield county delegation be- ing given the privilege of voting first which would be eut of the usual order as Hartford county usually leads off. Former Senator Brook of Tor- rington said the reasqn why. Litch- field wanted to vote ifirst was be- cause its delegates desiréd presenta- tion ahead of Hartford county. Chairman Merritt sald the ballot would have to go ahéad in regular order which gave Hartford ¢sunty firat call. Frank E. Healy, of Wind- sor Locks expressed surprise at the ides put forward by Blodgett saying ke understood he -had come to a G. O. P. convention. “Litchficld should await ita turn,” he sald. “Hartford county will not agree to the proposal.” to Wait Mortimer Bell, of Salisbury sald that it was agreed that Litchfield could wait. Blodgett taking the floor again explained that the id n the wmotion was put into their minds by Hartford delegates who may have liked to determine the strength of the candidates who were both from Litchfield county. The convention ordered the roll call to proceed as is the custom, Sccretary Willard called the roll of delegates, As the roll call progressed State Chairman Roraback who sat on a lounge at the rear of the stage, lis- tened intently as delegates answer- «d to their names until it was evi- dent that Walcott was leading Blodgett by a large margin. There wab hearty laughter when Blodg- ett's name was called. He arose and +ald that ‘“‘out of defcrence to the community in which I live I will vote for myself.” Applause. . 408-80 1s Vote A quick check as the roll call vrogressed showed that Blodgett carried Litchfield county, 59 to 32 as he had predicted he would. A rough check of figures after six coun- ties had voted appeared to give Walcott 408 votes to 89 for Blodgett. The roll call vote was verified by the clerk and it was announced by Becretary Willard: Wolcott 472, Blodgett 114. Blodgett took the floor and moved that the nomina- tion of Mr. Walcott be made unani- mous. This was done amid ap- plause, Trumbull Put Up ‘When nominations for governor were called for Mrs. Russell Lee Jones of Hartford offered the name of Gov. Trumbull and he was plac- ed in momination by acclamation amid applause. The chairman, on motien of Col. Allen of Rockville, named former Gov. Holcomb, Mrs. Jones and Arthur T. Connor, a com- mittee to notify Gov. Trumbull re- marking “that he would not say Gov. Holcomb of Southirgton be- CITY OF NEW BRITAIN DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS Official Notice Al Public Schools of all grades including Kinder- garten, Elementary Grades, Junior High Schools, and Senior High School open Monday, September 10, 1928. cause Governor Holcomb belonged to the whole state. Nominations for lieutenant gover- nor were next called for and Daniel Cronin of New London offered the name of Ernect E. Rogers, his townsman, while Edward N. Allen of Hartford presented that of Sec- retary Pallotti, Lieut. Gov. Brainard who had hoped for nomination, seconded Mr. Rogers' name. Mr. Pallotti's name was seconded just as Senator Wal- cott eacorted by Benator Wilcox of Meriden, Mrs. Viaoton of Andover and Mr. Farrington came down the alsle. The nominee looked out upon the audience which had arisen and auding. He was introduc- ed and spoke briefly Mr. Walcott said that it was in a spirit of humility that he accepted the nomination. *“If elected in No- vember,” he said, “I will act with courage and vigor and attempt io gain the appreciation of everybody.

' He said he agreed that Mr. Merritt's speech was in ac- cord with his own ideas. “The greatest living American is Herbert Hoover,” were Mr. Walcott's clos- ing words, A roll call for lieutenant governor was ordered at 12 o'clock. Just as the roll call ended Gov. Trumbull was escorted to the stage and applauded. Chairman Merritt presented him, his second appear- ance before a mominating conven- tion. He sald he appreciated the of the ‘We mmay NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1928. American Moth followed Rowland one minute later. §. L.

The directors feel that the loss was not an unmixed evil, he said, “inasmuch as it should result in & correction of the situation which has prevailed for the last few years wherein the boxers' share of the re- ceipts has mounted to a point where | profits to the promoter have vanish- ed. It should be possible to arrange for future contests on a basis that will give greater protection to the | promoter and greater opporfunity to make reasonable earnings.” | The corporation has change fts| fiscal year to end May 31, instead of | December 31, owing to the seasonal character of the business.
