...fullback Lamar expects to go with either Glenn Haughie or Steve Cohen. Most of the heavy ball carrying on a T offense is done by the halfbacks and the Yardlings are well staffed here with either Deane or Frank Crossen at left half while Bob Repsher should get the nod at right half.

Ordinarily, the nod would have gone to the Republican with the greater seniority. Bricker's dilemma: both Ives and Watkins were sworn into the Senate on Jan. 3, 1947. Technically Ives could claim a hairbreadth of seniority because he had held previous legislative office (New York state), but Ives...
