First scattering returns in the preferential presidential poll being conducted by William N. Erickson, candidate for delegate to the Repubâ€" lican National Convention, is showâ€" ing Thomas E. Dewey of New York as dominating the attention of Reâ€" publican voters in the 10th congresâ€" sional district. PAGE TWO Dewey Is Favorite In 19th District Presidential Poll Thousands of stamped post cards were distributed last week throughâ€" out the 10th district from Chicago‘s north side to the Wisconsin state line, comprising the North Shore suburbs and all of Lake county. Erickson, who is campaigning as an uninstructed and unpledged delâ€" egate to the Republican convention, announced he is conducting the poll in order to know the wishes of his constituents in the 10th district. Dewey garnered 51 per cent of the votes arriving in the first returns, Erickson announced. Sen. Arthur Vandenberg of Michigan received 33 per cent of the votes, while Sen. Robert Taft of Ohio trailed third with.10 per cent of the preferential ballots. Other names accounted for the remaining 6 per cent. Erickson pointed out that deleâ€" wates to the Republican convention should be experienced men who have been actively identified with the party in order to represent adeâ€" quately the wishes of the rank and file of the Republican voters. He is serving his second term on the Cook County Board of Commissionâ€" ers after having twice defeated the Democratic Kellyâ€"Nash machine in Chicago to gain his elections. Further announcements showing the varying trends of local voters will be made in this newspaper as fast as the returned preferential balâ€" lots are tabulated.

A gala Manuscript Night, free to all interested on Thursday evening, April 11, will be substituted for the usual Manuscript Mornings which have opened previous terms of the North Shore Creative Writâ€" ing group. Under the leadership of Rowena Bennett, poet and editor, the classes have held unusually sucâ€" cessful fall and winter terms. By request the group will enjoy a short spring session of five weeks with Thursday night‘s open program as the first typical lesson of the new series. Taking part in the reading of their own manuscripts will be the writers and scribblers who have commuted over the winter ice from Evanston and other suburbs to join Highland Parkers who find these Thursday mornings the high spot in their week. Husbands and friends of class members are especially invited to hear the short stories built around every age in the family from the kindergartener, through adolescent and adult problems. Original music and songs, sophisticated verse, the reading of a one act play by three characters, and an informal recepâ€" tion when husbands can jokingly commiserate over â€" their â€" neglect when wives become "creative writâ€" ers," will add to the variety of the informal gathering.
