A.P.Main Paints Graphic Picture of Election Night In New York Smith's Chances Dim But Smith lsn't winning. Boys have been throwing lighted newspa- pers into the air whenever a bulletin favored New York's native son, but the bulletins grow scarcer and the | mischief makers lose their enthusi- {asm. More ani more members of the crowd decide that Hoover is the victor, and trickle away into side- | streets, and homeward. Soon after midnight the crowd has become much smaller, and traffic lanes are opened again for strect cars and | provileged motorists. The Hoover |adherents, quiet through the early | evening while §mith sentiment was !|so vocal, muster courage to cheer a bit, and find that they have the upper hand in the waning demon- stration. Downtown the bonfires are dying down. Fire department squads are going through the streets quenching the embers and ordering the still- unvanquished merrymakers home. Everywhere there is evidence of a celebration that never got fully un- der way. A police leutenant crowds thin out, and 1 Leen around here” he says, “ever Times Square was Times Square, and I never saw anything like the mob that were here for a while tonight. I Smith had won ...

Crowds at Times Square From a dozen streets the crowds sprawl into Times Square, buckling into billows the mass of humanity that packs the triangle. Few can see the big screen hanging from the Times annex, on which is paraded a steady succession of figures. Flash- light flares and the glow of power- ful torches keep the throng half blinded as it mills between Fortieth and Fort enth streets along Broadway and Seventh avenue. The tamiliar contour of the Astor hote is blurred with banks of guests at every window and balcony, gazing through field glasses toward bulletin boards.

Medium Height She is of medium height, about 5 feet 6 inches, but with hgr crect slenderness appears taller. Her soft white hair, parted in the middle and drawn down to a flat knot at| the nape of her neck, setting off as it does the broad forehead and wide {apart, clear gray eyes, does much to emphasize the air of quiet dignity that is her outstanding characteris- tic, | Gifted Hostess She Is especially gifted as a | hostess, and has that speclal “sixth | sense” that sees which guests be- | {long together and will interest each other. Without any apparent effort she can give each guest in the tiled terrace above the garden in Palo Alto or in the wide back porch un- der the trees of Washington the feeling of having had her particular ttention. At the same time she | can shift them about until all are in |congenial groups without realizing how they got there. Few people know that by the per- sonal training of her father, the e Charles D. Henry, bank cashier of Waterloo, Jowa, and Whittier and Monterey, California, Lou Hen- ry Hoover is fully equipped to hold a position as a bank cashier, book- keeper or teller. Through her uni- versity training she is also a geolo- and could be a teacher of | ogy, metallurgy or English. She | is, in addition, widely read. Her! taste for literature was in her stu- dent days a. Stanford university, as | [ much as her geology, one of the common interests that brov~ht about | her romance with Herbert Hoover. 1t enabled her to help him through the pitfalls of his English examina- tions. The further help she gave him as a co-translator from the Latin of Georgius Agricola's de re Matallica is already famous. | Marries Hoover i In spite of this classical training a surencss that been a secret source of strength for him. Oul This life-long comradeship with her husband and the merging ot her life in his is perhaps the outstaucing thing that impreasses one about Mrs. Hoover. She had a strong individ- uvality of her own and a reserve that sets her personality apart in clear relief. But beneath the cool and unemotional friendliness of her man- ner one senses a deep strength of lovalty that has made her life a sharing of her husband's and made it possible for so essentially a hotae loving nature as hers 10 pull up roots again and aZa‘n to make and 1cinake homics for hun around the werld. The tale of their travels reads like the introduction to a cartozrapher’s lexicon. Morgolia, Burma, Indo- <hina, Soith Atrica, Australia, Rus- a, all had a place in their career, nd Lon Henry Hoover's tirst balwy, iHerbert Junier, born after the rov- olution in Tientsin circled the globe three times, once for each of the three first. years of his babybhood.

She and nd and babies did not sim- at a hotel, but a place where thoy could settle “thelr houschold goods,™ as the 1uaster of the house would express it, and open their own hos- pitable doors to friends of a dozen nationalities and homesick Ameri- cans far from thefr own hearta- stones. Mrs. Hoover is known for her ini- partial serz: of justice, an attribu‘e *hat may also have its share iy, the | of her houschold. | for example, to give | smooth runnixn She is the i full credit to her domestic staft for their work. In illustration of this she was only contributor to the con- gressional cook book who credited to her cook, Mary Rattley, the recipes submitted, for mushroom soup, spoon bread, eweet potatoes with marshmallows and other delicacies, | entered by her.

Their harvest is a record one, e ery kind of crop having been cxception- ally good. * her full equipment for a pro- |fessional carecr, Lou Henry was married almost immediately after graduation, for her young engineer must often have |hostesses whose homes are known for the special delicacy of the food |served, Mra. Hoover often markets herself, very early after breakfast, o | that she can have the best choice in ithe flowers on sale there as well as in mes‘s and vegetables. In her hus- band’s department of commerch days, she would often drive him to his office on those early morning ex- cursions. Mrs. Hoover's controlling impulse i8 to help and second her husband in every small or big thing in lif.. This shows frequently in incidents of their daily life. such as her ready | flling in of conversational gaps when they entertain. for she has an easy |flow of small talk and anecdote that {he has not, and it is she who keeps the conversational ball rolling. In her home today, she has an unusual way of having time for everything, ghe is the real head of her household, yet she has time for a large number of outside activi- ties, she is a vice president of the National Girl Scouts Association, president of the women's auxiliary to the Amerigan Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers, vice president of the District of Colum- bia oversees league. and an active and interested worker in the play- ground and recreational association Yet she has time for wide reading, for active support of the epcra and good concert courses that come to Washington, and forghe garden that she loves and that makes her home seem beautifully remote from the city that surrounds it.

It is }:mnle and dignified, with skirts of “a *“comfortable length” but not too long to be unfashionable, and shoes with “sensible heels” but al- ways smart, though comfortable enough for her to stand three ho rs receiv guests at the formal “at homes” required of the wife of a cabinet officer and-still say, “it Is not an ordeal, T really enjoy it.” Since she is in mourning for her father she wears only black in pub- lic, unusually unrelieved by even a touch of white.
