Municipal Elections Only Two Weeks Off INDIANAPOLIS <UPD—Candidates and political party leaders shoved down on the gas pedal today in a final drive for votes with the Indiana municipal elections just two weeks away. The election is Nov. 3. Evidence of feverish activity was seen in many cities, largely i those where incumbent mayors are seeking new terms and rivals are sniping at them. Mayor contests are being waged in 108 cities ranging in size from a few hundred population to nearly half a million. Democrats now control about three-fourths of Indiana’s cities on the strength of a 1955 election sweep. Straw polls thus far in the 1959 campaign have shown Republican leaningsAt Indianapolis, Democratic Mayor Charles H. Boswell has run i behind Republican William Sharp ;in an Indianapolis Times poll. However, a survey by the Indianapolis News showed Boswell I slightly ahead of Sharp, and the ) Indianapolis Star quoted the Mari ion County Democratic. Central Committee as saying an indeI pendent survey showed Boswell running ahead. An Evansville Press poll showed the GOP mayor nominee ahead but his Democratic opponent gain(ing, and an Elkhart Truth poll gave the Republicans a margin. In both Cities, the present mayors are Democrats. Top echelon party leaders have ibeen drawn into the city campaigns to help their respective ! parties. Former Gov. Henry F. Schricker. elder statesman of Indiana Democrats, went to LaPorte last weekend to help his party’s i cause. Governor Handley, with ; pertinent comments from the Statehouse, has lent a hand to the ,GOP candidates.
