Worth Clark entered the Democratic primaries against Senator Pope, whom he charged with being a New Deal yesman, confident New Dealers overlooked one fact-that this year Idaho's election law had been changed to permit voters to enter either primary without regard to previous party affiliation. Evidently many a Borah Isolationist took the opportunity to vote against Internationalist Pope. Representative Clark squeezed him out by almost 4,000 votes, scored the first defeat of an incumbent Roosevelt Senator this year...
Last week another young racehorse which racegoers thought destined to be great was led to the Saratoga barrier for another Sanford Memorial. This comer was Mrs. Charles Shipman Payson's Thingumabob, a two-year-old.

SUWANNEE RIVER-Cecile Hulse Matschat-Farrar & Rinehart ($2.50). Best of the Rivers of America series (previous volumes: Kennebec, Upper Mississippi) Suwannee River more than lives up to its folk-song fame.
