The state police themselves, were .in a crash which smashed their car while on the way to investigate an accident. Saturday evening in Penn Yan at the junction of Liberty and Chapel streets the; car of Herbert Reed of Canandaigua, R. D. 3, driven by the owner* aged 32 years, crashed into the sedan of Mrs. Robert Morrison of r 140 West Minister street, Rochester, which car was operated by her hus band. After waiting a chance to cross Liberty street from the east on Chapel street, Mr. Morrison drove in to the path of the Canandaigua ma chine. The Rochester car was pushed to the curb, smashing a wheel and damaging both cars. Mrs. Reed was slightly cut but the other occupants escaped. Injured in Football Game (From Potter Correspondent) Arthur Emerson received an injury to his head during the football game between Penn Yan and Lyons at Ly ons Saturday. The injury was not at firbt believed to be serious, but on Monday he became so much worse that X-rays were taken revealing a brain concussion. He was not able to be moved to his home and will remain in Penn Yan for a few days. (Continued on page three) (From-Hall Correspondent) One hunter at least paid dearly for his sport Saturday while hunting near Number Nine church. His shot, meant for a pheasant, missed the bird but broke 16 panes of frosted glass in the windows of the chapel of the church. Unfortunately for said hunter, the janitor was in the chapel at the time and took the hunter to the parsonage to interview Mr. Sheldon, the pastor of the church. So the chapel will soon appear with new windows.

Celebrate Their W edding Anniversaries Charles G. Hetherington (From Six Corners Correspondent) The recleaning process of the gas purification plant, located four and one-half miles south of Dundee in the town of Starkey, has just been com pleted. Once every year the plant is closed for the purpose of removing the accumulated chemicals from the \ wooden trays used in the actifier. The plant was built four years ago by the Western Gas Construction company for the purpose ot removing the sulphur from the natural gas which was found in the Tyrone field. The Seaboard process of liquid puri fication is used. In this process the gas is “scrubbed\' in a packed tower, called the absorber, with a clear soda solution which removes the sulphur from the gas, resulting in a “spent\ solution. The “ spent\ solution is then sent with a current of air in a packed tower called an actifier, producing a regenerated fresh Soda solution which is returned to the absorber. The same soda solution is recirculated from ab sorber to actifier and from actifier to absorber, over and over again. The air leaving the actifier contains about 95% of hydrogen sulphide found in the gas. The air containing this sul phide is dscharged through a tall stack into the air, creating an un pleasant odor for those near it. William Klug of Dundee is the main operator of the Purification plant. Three others work under him on different shifts. Mr. Klug works through the day from 8 a. m. to 4 p. m. Keihl Kinder works from 4 p. m. to 12 m. and Calvin Areford works until 8 a. m. Anthony Klug works when these men have their days off. Some of the gas is piped to Dundee, Buffalo, Binghamton and Geneva. Anyone who wishes to see the plant is welcome at any time. Following are directions for reach ing the Home Gas Purification plant from Dundee: Go south from Dundee until you reach the third right hand turn off from the state road on the dirt.

In 1928 Jay D. Barnes defeated Henry R. Brown for commissioner of public welfare by 730 votes. Three years later Mr. Brown turned the tables, winning from Mr. Barnes by 474 ballots. In 1934 Mr. Brown con tinued his growing popularity by polling 1415 more votes than his Re publican opponent, William A. Boyd. Earliest returns received by the Chronicle-Express from Starkey dis tricts 1 and 2 gave Mr. Boyd a com fortable lead in his home districts. Italy and Middlesex 1 and 2 also fav ored the Starkey nominee of the Re publicans, but all other districts vot ed for the present incumbent, leaving the Democrats in possession of one major county office. George Shay of Italy, the Demo crats' candidate for sheriff, took a nice lead in his home town and dis trict but lost to Penn Yan Patrolman Charles Kipp, Republican, 2085 to 4883. Fred S. Hollowell, Republican mem ber of assembly, was re-elected, 5250 to 1674 over Philip F. Roof of Star- key. But despite their loss in Yates county, the Democrats are reported to have picked up enough extra seats to give them control of the assembly at Albany this next term. Already having control of the state senate and with Governor Herbert H. Leh man re-seated in a landslide which thoroughly approved of the new deal in the Empire state, it looks as if the Democrats could do just about as they want to? at Albany this year. In fact, early reports indicated that all the Democrats for state office were elected, including Royal S. Copeland, who is again sent to Washington as United States senator. ♦ Yates fell in line with the other counties of this congressional district, voting 5153 to 1659 in favor of John Taber, present Republican -congress man, over his Democratic candidate Dennis F. Sullivan. Earle S. Warner of Phelps, Republican, was returned to the senate in Albany, Yates voters giving him 4928 ballots to the 1857 received by Greyton H. Taylor of Hammondsport, the Democratic nom inee. Republicans voted in substantial numbers favoring their state officials as they appeared on the ballots, split ting only when they came to county welfare commissioner. The results of the voting as recorded in each dis trict of the county and as compiled by the Chronicle-Express are given in detail in the table below: Seneca District No. 1 Reports Voters at Hall cast 201 ballots for Marble, Republican candidate to re- election, member of assembly, to 29 for his Democratic opponent; judge, Fitch 201, McEvoy 31; for sur- i rogate, Cribb 198,.

These are sent, to local election commissioners by Friday before elec tion and are opened hnd cast in each district as the, polls close. . Election skirmishes, mostly in Pennsylvania, cost ten lives. ♦ • Congressman Jas. Wadsworth was sent back to Washington by four rural counties of his district.

Governor Lehman was re-elected by a tremendous majority and Unit ed States Senator Copeland was re turned to Washington. Henry Jt.

Upton Sinclair, liberal .Democratic candidate for governdk in Cilifornia, secured exactly the same number of votes in his home district as did his Republican opponent, Frank Merj-i- am.

Two years ago, in the heat of a presidential election, there were for | 11,000 registered and 8,500 the polls. Radio returns early Wednesday morning declared President Roose velt and Democrats elated oyer what they considered an overwhelming ap proval of the new deal and party’s policies.
