TRUXTUN HARE and did trapshooting and manual labor on his nine-acre farm until 60. After that, he said, he "slowed down to archery and pottery glazing." DEFENDED PHILADELPHIA A great lover of Philadelphia and its ways he was one of the first to rebut the remark of Joseph Hergesheimer, novelist, in 1932 about the city's social structure being deadly dull, provincial and insular. "To- a stranger, Philadelphia's attitude may appear cold, and the city may be an unpleasant place for a stranger to come to," Mr. Hare said. "But once he is taken in he finds that Philadelphia is more truly warm-hearted than most cities.

ENTERED LAW SCHOOL A native of Philadelphia, Mr. Hare attended St. Mark's School, Southborough, Mass. After graduation from college in 1901 he entered the University of Pennsylvania Law School. He obtained his law degree in 1904 and entered cor poration work, in which he specialized until 1943.

At that time he resigned as assistant solicitor for the United Gas Improvement Co. to become managing director of Bryn Mawr Hos pital, succeeding his brother, C. Willing Hare, following the latter's death on Dec. 6, 1942. ACTIVE AT CHURCH Three years later he was named president and during his tenure saw the completion of the $2,852,000 six-floor north wing of the hospital in 1953 and the institution of a $600,000 rebuilding and alteration program.

In addition to his civic endeavors he also was active in the affairs of St. Martin's Episcopal Church, Radnor, and was a former vestryman and former senior warden there. SURVIVORS LISTED He was a director of the Phila delphia Contributionship for the Insurance of Houses from Loss by Fire. He was a member of the St. Anthony Club and the Philadelphia Club.

He is survived by his wife, the former Katharine Sargent Smith; two sons, T. Truxtun, of Edge mont, Delaware county, and Robert, of London; two daughters, Mrs. Frederic McLaughlin, of Basalt, and Martha Hare, of Sante Fe, and eight grandchildren. GEORGE ROST LANCASTER, Feb. 3.

George Rost, a Bible teacher and retired railway conductor, died today at his home at Ironville, 10 miles west of here. He was aged 99. He had been active until last October and attributed his longevity to reading the Bible and to prayer. Mr. Rost retired from the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1922 after 46 years service and in December, 1954, he was honored by the PRR Relief Association at Philadelphia as the oldest living member.

MRS. EDGAR W. MILLER Mrs. Eleanor D. Miller, wife of Edgar W.

Miller, an officer of the Indemnity Insurance Co. of North America, died Thursday at her home, 405 Lippincott River-ton, -J. She was 72. A native of Augusta, Mrs. Miller was active in judging American Ken- ripl ninh shnws "Pnnprnl spmipps One of three prisoners who es caped last Saturday from the Far-view State Hospital for the Criminally Insane, near Scranton, was captured last night in a West Philadelphia taproom.

Dressed in rags and having only 15 cents in his pocket, Raymond Sutton, 55, who once lived on 46th st. near Market, was found nursing a beer at a bar near 42d st. and Lancaster by two patrolmen who burst through the door at 9 P. M. with drawn guns.

He said he went to Chicago, found it "too cold" and rode a freight train to this city.

MILLER Continued From First Page was said, will come from Allegheny "ounty, while the choice for Superior Court probably will be a central Pennsylvania lawyer.

Attending the Harrisburg con ference, held in the office of Gov. George M. Leader, were Clark, Green, Mayor Richardson Dil worth, former Democratic City Chairman James P. Clark, Mayor David L. Lawrence of Pittsburgh, and Democratic State Chairman Joseph M.

Barr. GOVERNOR IS ILL The Governor did not attend the meeting. He is recovering from an attack of intestinal virus and was ordered to remain in the executive mansion for another week of absolute rest. Although Green made no an nouncement of his future political plans, it was assumed he would be a candidate for re-election to Congress from Philadelphia's 5th Dis trict, embracing the 23d, 33d, 35th, 41st and 43d Wards. The district is regarded as a Democratic stronghold.

'UNITED FOR VICTORY As the meeting in the Gover nor's office broke up, statements were issued by Green and Clark. Green's statement follows "After a number of discussions with Democratic leaders and my friends and in the interest of party harmony within the ranks of the Democratic Party I have decided, to support former Mayor Joseph S. Clark for the United States Senate. "I want now to express my deepest gratitude to all my friends who have urged me to seek this nomination. The Democratic Party is united for victory in November." 'GRATEFUL FOR SUPPORT' The Clark statement read: "I am most grateful to Chairman Green for his support and I am today announcing my candidacy for the Democratic nomination for the.U.

S. Senate. I hope the policy committee, which meets next week, will look with favor upon my candidacy." Green's decision to bow out of the Senate race also indicated he will join other party leaders in support, of Adlai E. Stevenson for the Democratic nomination for President. Heretofore, Green was reported leaning toward Sen.

Estes Kefauver, of Tennessee. FRIEND OF GOVERNOR The city chairman's withdrawal from the Senate contest was believed influenced by Governor Leader, a close personal friend. Last week, both Leader and Law rence, at a meeting of the Democratic State Committee, indicated that selection of a Senate candi date should be based on the individual's ability to attract the votes of independents. On Tuesday, Leader asked Clark to withhold his announcement, pending another conference of the top-ranking party chiefs. The following day Green held a bedside conference with Leader at the executive mansion.

After conferring with the Governor, Green said he didn't expect a primary contest between himself and Clark, indicating that he would withdraw from the race if asked to dp so by the Governor.
