None other than Craigavon's bitterest enemy, President de Valera of the Irish Free State (Southern Ireland), was elected a member of the Northern Ireland Parliament by the constituency of South Down.

Barrett '34, halfbacks, and Captain John H. Dean '34, fullback...
Father Coughlin's bitterest vitriol was reserved for Edward Douglas Stair, former president of Detroit Bankers Co., one of the two holding companies-"Detroit Looters' Co." to Father Coughlin. Also publisher of the Free Press, Mr. Stair directs a running editorial barrage against Father Coughlin. "Insull was a piker to E. D. Stair," yelled the priest of the Shrine of the Little Flower, who in October will resume his Sunday broadcasts over 27 stations, and who plans to expand his "Children's Hour" to seven stations...
