At the President's request, Governor-reject Ingalls had left the Hoover sub-Cabinet as Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Aeronautics to try and carry Ohio for Hoover. Rhode Island. Impressed with his strenuous campaign as the "All-Round Man" who, stripped to the waist, lugged stones (TIME, Nov. 7), voters preferred Democrat Theodore Francis Green as Governor to Republican Norman Stanley...
