U. S. DEAN OF HORSE

TRADES ACTIVE AT 78

. BROCKTON, Mass. (U, P.).—The

dean of the nation’s horse traders James C. (Jimmy) Keith—still is going strong at the age of 78. Keith has been holding weekly horse auctions in Campello for the past 57 years. Hundreds of spectators—dealers, farmers and.those who just want to watch the proceedings — gather each Saturday afternoon at the old Keith homestead for the auctions. Jimmy Keith hasn't been without a horse since he was 11 years old and bought a six-week-old colt for $30. Since then he has lost count of the thousands of horses that have passed through his hahds. Jimmy has sold all

Mr Watkins withdrew and conceded the nomination to Mr. Townsend less than half-way through the roll call, saying he had entered “to stimulate interest.” Basis for the refund, Mr. Greenlee sald, was the general understanding that half the assessment constituted an entry fee, which Mr, Watkins used up, and half would be used to start his campaign fund. Since he would not be a candidate, the latter half was not retained.

The board, however, cannot arbitrarily decide that the surplus is needed for certain purposes, added, if it can be shown that no such need actually exists.

“This act,” he wrote, “clearly gives

the board of directors wide powers and broad discretionary powers.

However, such discretionary powers must not be abused.”

ISOLATIONIST NYE ‘LOSES SENATE BID

BISMARCK, N. D, June 26 (U. P.) —Senator William Langer appeared certain today of a second term in the U.S. senate as former Senator Gerald P. Nye lost a bid to regain the senate seat he held for nearly 20 years before losing it in 1944. Senator Langer forged ahead ‘of his only opponent in North Dakota's primary elections in which no office was sought by a Democrat. Mr. Nye, pre-war isolationist, was defeated by Senator Milton R. Young, Republican, in a special election held simultaneously with the primaries. At stake was the senate seat left vacant by the death of Senator John Moses, who died last year. His term has four years to go.

Sounding off on men drivers, Miss Tew characterizes them as bull‘headed and impolite. “A man will risk his fenders to beat another car away from a stop light. “A man will crowd another driver as he passes to ‘teach him a lesson.’ A man will step on the gas when a light turns amber in his face. A man will , , She has an explanation for women who do become involved in accidents; it is merely that the poor dears don't drive enough to keep in practice. ’ Miss Tew has her own safety formula for all drivers, but especially for men: Use care, conservatism and concentration. Concentration is the most important, she says, adding, “You can't woolgather and stay safe.”

The kidnapping was discovered about 7:30 a. m. by Suzanne's father, an OPA executive, when he went to awaken the child. Thomas said he returned to work at 11 o'clock the night of Jan. 7. Previous Trouble Recalled

“After a couple of days I felt things were getting plenty hot,” authorities said he confessed. “When I read in the papers that a psychologist believed a musician was guilty of the crime I really got jittery. “I talked to my wife about getting
