Our Predictions The campaign is over, and most Americans are very glad that it is. This has been a particularly vicious campaign, with much smearing, with unprecendented use of the “captive” media, TV and radio, whereby if you want to listen, you have to hear the political ads. Perhaps it is a good thing, though — so many would never even get a glimmer of politics if it was not for all the last-minute hoopla of the campaign on TV and radio. This year the national election has been y remarkably easy to predict all the way along—so far. About a year ago we predicted that Sen. Goldwater would be nominated on the first ballot. We also predicted that if the Republicans did nominate him, he would take a terrific beating, similar to the Roosevelt-Landon campaign of 1936, in which Alf Landon received the electoral votes of two states, Maine and Vermont. We feel that probably Alabama and Mississippi are safe in the Goldwater column, but we doubt if he can count on as many as eight states, and they would all be small in electoral vote. So our prediction is a landslide for Johnson, just as we predicted before Goldwater was nominated, but when it was obvious that he would be nominated. Here in Indiana, we predict a surprisingly large win for Johnson — and almost any win would be surprising, since the Democrats have not carried Indiana since 1936 in a presidential election. Sen Vance Hartke will probably win almost as large as Johnson. Governor candidate Roger Branigin and the rest of the Democratic ticket will probably be carried into office by the sheer force of the Johnson win... If so, Judge G. Remy Blerly, of Decatur, would win a much deserved second term as appellate court judge. In Adams county, we expect the Democratic trend to continue, and Adams county will probably carry for Johnson — and this county hasn’t carried for a Democratic president since 1936 — which many people do not realize. Undoubtedly Sen. Hartke and Judge Bierly will lead the ticket — Judge Bierly edged out Sen. Hartke by three votes six years ago. In fact, the’entire Democratic state ticket will probably carry the county. The local races will include a few close ones. Probably the auditor race, commissioner, third district, race will be the closest, with coroner dose in Decatur. However, we expect every Democrat to carry locally, with possibly one exception, depending on how well the rest of the Democratic ticket goes. Max Hobbs may well win —- it will be close if Allen county carries by as much as 6,000 for Johnson, we would predict. But we would have to give an edge to Adair to return to an eighth term, much as we will personally hate to see it. So there are our guesses. We have made similar predictions during the campaign, so they should come as no surprise, except that many expect one or two local upsets. We will have no apologies if we predict wrong — since anyone can tell us who the winners are the day after the election 1 editorial written by- Dick Heller

Braves Contend County Broke Stadium Lease CHICAGO (UPD — The Milwaukee Braves contend that Milwaukee County broke the ball club's least on County Stadium, clearing the way for the team to move to Atlanta, Ga., for the 1966 season. The Braves made the charge in an answer filed in federal court in Milwaukee Monday to a suit for an injunction filed by the county to prevent transfer of the franchise. The county contends that the lease requires the Braves to play all home games in Milwaukee during the 1965 season. The Braves charged Milwaukee County broke the lease by failing to protect the team against ticket speculators on stadium grounds, by failing to “make up” to the Braves for failures of season ticket sales and radio and TV income, and by making public statements implying that the Braves’ management was deliberately trying to have the team not win games. The club said that in an effort to offset the "disparagement’’ by county officials, it sold 119,000 tickets at reduced rates. It added th a? while it believes the lease was broken by the county, if the court held otherwise, the club would be able to pay the 9175,000 which Milwaukee County estimated it would receive in rental in 1965. "A professional team cannot and should not be required to play in the face of public antipathy and hostility," the answers said. "A court of equity will not enforce professional servitude under such conditions.” Fund Benefits From * Grill And Patrons The latest Decatur Community Fund total includes an $ll.OB donation — all pennies — from the management and patrons of Dick’s Grill. The donation is the result of a game of skill fostered by owner Floyd Balliett, who set up a wa-ter-filled gallon jug with a ismall glass at the bottom. The idea of the game was to drop pennies into the jug and make them land in the small glass. Successful competitors — and they were few — were given credit for five free cups of coffee: All the proceeds from the jug went to the Community Fund. Geneva Woman Held On Charge Os Theft Ann Norris, recently residing in Geneva and a former Coppess Corners resident, was taken into custody by the department Monday night. She was apprehended around 9 o'clock Monday in Geneva on two seperate circuit court warrants, each charging her with theft by deception. Bond had been set at SI,OOO on each charge, and she is being held in custody until able to post the necessary amount.
