ARE NOT CERTAIN TO WHICH pm DRIVERBELONGS Named as Democrat, New Board Member Is Regis- , tered as Republican. Is a-Democrat who lets fri's Emml slip toward a Republican ballot in the-primary still a Democrat? Indianapolis Democrats today were uncertain whether Frank Driver, appointed by Mayor Duvall as a Democratic park board member is affiliated with their party. The poll book of the Twelfth precinct. Wayne Township, shows Frank Driver, 27 N. Sheffield Ave., registered as a Republican in the recent primary. Nothing to Say Driver, like other illustrious State and city executives, had nothing to say. “Let them argue it out,” was his message. Leroy J. Reach, Democratic county chairman, said he will take no action, because he believes it would be without avail Inasmuch as the- appointive power belongs, to Duvall. Succeeds Maguire Reach said Driver probably has been a Democrat “in past years” al-; though no one seems to recall his party activities. Driver was named to succeed Al- , bert M. Maguire, Democrat, who 1 resigned on the eve of a trial before j Duvall on charges perferred by City | Controller William C. Buser. Both Buser and Driver are brothers-in-law of Duvall.
