Stetson, city schools'* superintendent, at the opening of a fourday Indianapolis teachers’ institute at Shortridge high school today.

G. O. P. IN RALLY AT ROAD OPENING

Politics Much in Evidence as State Highway 62 Begins Service. • BY BEN STERN DALE, Ind., Sept. 2.—What was heralded as a good roads jubilee here Monday was actually a Republican rally and highway commission indorsement powwow. Governor Harry G. Leslie, flanked by Albert J. Wedeking of Dale, took many bows, and in all comment inferred, sometimes adroitly, that construction of a highway was a Republican triumph. t Completion of state highway 62 from Dale to Adyeville was the occasion of the jubilee and Wedeking, who has been instrumental in having new southern Indiana highways routed through his home town,, which has a population of 500, was the guest of .honor. Club and County Sponsors Elaborate plans for the celebration were made by the Hoosier Automobile Club and Vanderburg county. First district leaders availed themselves of the jubilee to make of it a Republican celebration. At a meeting of G. O. P. workers at Evansville last week Philip Gould, Vanderburg county chairman, asked that all officeholders and would-be officeholders be present, pointing out that it would provide an excellent opportunity for aiding the party in the fall campaign. Gould declared construction of the new highway was a triumph of the party and it would not be a bad idea to exploit the jubilee for the candidates’ own ends. Ben Huffman of Rockport, First district chairman, was present and lent his asssent to the scheme. None of the speakers here pointed out that in routing Road 62 from Evansville to Louisville through Dale at the insistence of Chairman Wedeking, the original plan was abandoned, and the road leading past the nationally famous grave and tombstone of the mother of Lincoln still is nothing but gravel. Travel on Road There appeared to be no necessity for paving the fourteen miles between Dale and Adyeville at present, as there is little traffic on this strip, but it is pointed out there is a real need to pave from Lincoln City to

twelve revolutions.’the glider will be seen looping the loop and performing tail spins and other daring feats. Voepel has informed air officials he will attempt an outside loop with his craft Pictured with it here is Jimmie Van Cise, who make a parachute jump from £fie glider.
