But unprejudiced observers believed the gubernatorial nomination would be no walkaway for anybody. The four candidates for governor are Hobart Creighton, speaker of the house of representatives, Walter llelmke. Allen county GOP chairman; Sen. William E. Jenner. > and state auditor A. V. Burch. Jenner appeared to have won important support from the Calumet by virtue of the re-election of James McShane as county (hairman. McShane is known as a Jenner supporter and he may be able to deliver a large bloc of the 119 delegates from his bailiwick to the senator. Heltnke held apparent support from two other large delegations. Marion and Allen counties. The Allen county delegation was believed -jdedged to Helmke as a ’avorite son long before the con vention Saturday. In Marion county. James Ingles was re-elected GOP chairman Ingles was backed by governor Gates' statehouse faction and since Gates Is on record In support of Helmke it seemed reasonable to assume that the Fort Wayne man might get a large share of support from, the biggest county in the state. Ervin Taylor succeeded former mayor Manson Reichert in Vanderburgh county's GOP convention. but there seemed to be no threat of a swing from Burch, a home town candidate. Reichert had gone on record in ’avor of Burch. Taylor, a former employe of Burch’s Evansville inlustrial plant, issued a statement saying the county organization was "ICO percent" for Burch. The St. Joseph county delegation was expected to divide its support between all four. Vigo reportedly leaned slightly toward Helmke. and Delaware may deliver heavily for Jenner In view of strong support the senator seems to have throughout the lutb district. 0 Welfare Department Heads In Conference Fort Wayne.
