If GULLOCH SAYS HE'LL RUN STALE There’ll Be No Assistant, He Declares. Bu Timm Special FERDINAND, Sept. 26.—“1 wIU not only be Governor of the whole people when in office, but' I myself will be the Governor.” said Dr. Carleton B. McCulloch, Democratic candidate for Governor, here tonight. ‘■There will be any assistant Governor or private individual who will make up my mind for me.” Dr. McCulloch declared that one of the important duties of a Gov- , emor is to make certain that State institutions are not involved in politics. “All State institutions should be conducted without political intereference.” he said. “I assure you that as Governor there will be no political conduct of those Institutions,” he continued. “Politics has no place in our educational institutions. Already the Republicans are mixing politics with education. The Republican State committee very recently called a meeting to discuss whether the Republican candidate for superintend-1 ent of public instruction should be j removed from the ticket.” “Our State highway system is com . prehensive in its plans, and when finally carried out the State will be gridironed with suitable roads which will place every' county' s n at in touch with every other county se.' t. ar.d eventually with the great market highways. Southern Indiana has not been taken care of as it should fie,” he said.
New and Old on Stage Today
By WALTER D. HICKMAN SHERE is a lot I like about the work of Cal and Ethel Norris. Not only do I like what they have accomplished in a dancing way, but I admire the method they use in introducing their collies, five beautiful dogs. Cal and his sister do not come under the head of dog trainers. The collies are their pets and they love ’em. Norris is one of those lads, and we have too few of them on the stage, who reflect what I call artistic youth. There is nothing crude about Cal nor is he offensive with his sureness of things In general. Here is artistic youth, the kind that climbs and accomplishes things. Both Cal and his sister dance with charm and understanding of what is meant by popular dancing. To my way of thinking this act would go good on any bill. You will find Norris and his sister at the Palace. The new bill features in the billing Will Higgle. and the Ballalaika orchestra. This act is worth while and is a novelty. It probably moves too slowly for some people because It isn’t crowded full of jazz. A worth while act. John P. McLinn proves how easy (?) it is to balance a human being on a bunch of chair stacked upon two tables. Walters and Goold have no trouble in making good with their songs. Their success rests in that they have an original treatment in the presentation of each song number. Sampsell and Leonhard appear In ‘‘The Woman Haters Club.” At times it is good entertainment, but the conversation becomes a trifle too
