The jeweled, three-tiered of the papacy, topped by orb and cross, perhaps will be placed upon his head Sunday, Nov.

9, in the climax at St. Peter's! Basilica of the drama that with the fatal illness of Pope Pius at Castel Gandolfo. Vatican authorities prepared today for the coronation, the most colorful ceremony of the Roman Catholic Church, while messages ct congratulation and best wishes poured in from chiefs of state and government heads of many nations. After his broadcast, Pope ordered the reopening of the doors of the conclave area, where 51 princes of the church had gone through the three tense days of balloting that finally led to his selection. Bells of St.

Peter's and of Rome's 500 churches pealed. A brilliant sun shone over the Italian capital, which was in a festive mood. Throughout the city: the posters announcing the death and funeral services for Pope Pius had disappeared. In their places, were bright new posters hailing the new pontiff. There was jubilitation in Pope John's native north Italian hamlet, Sotto il Monte, and in Venice elevation of the jovial, portly patriarch who in the Catholic view becomes the 262nd vicar of Christ on earth and a direct successor of St.

Peter. Bonfires burned Tuesday night: land fireworks exploded at Sotto Monte, a village of 1.733 in the shadow of the Alps, where the Pope was born the son of a poor parmer Nov. 25, 1881.

U.S. Sen. Edward Martin, retir. ing next year, will be in town to receive the accolades of his party followers while U. S.

Secretary of the Interior Fred will add lustre to the program as the principal speaker. The GOP also hopes to raise a' few bucks for its campaign. As for party finances, the Republicans make no "bones" about it, because, like that famous mo er, they claim there are none in their cupboard. "We're broke!" they say. Jeffries has urged members of the party to answer recent fundraising letters and contribute a dollar or two to the GOP cause.

The landscape appears greener on the other side of the fence. It is generally conceded, although not official, that the Democratic party has a few more dollars in its coffers than the GOP. Facts and figures surrounding their fund-raising banquets would indicate the en Democarts hold the edge, As for the financially. two local campaigns, the Republicans have their verbal automatics, with unerring accuracy, at one target-Mayor David Lawrence, the Democrats' gubernatorial aspirant. Throughout their district rallies the GOP has hammered away relentlessly with allegations that Lawrence's Pittsburgh administration hasn't been a "bed roses." Rally speakers here have charged him with "harboring a corrupt police force, an increased crime rate and political bossism." The GOP'.

local platform includes 3. plank for Arthur McGonigle, its choice for governor, whom they describe as a "businessman for a businessman's job." The party also tells its rally listeners that Hugh Scott's 16 years of service as 3 congressman warrants his election to the U.S. Senate. The Democrats have focused much of their campaign talk on what they term Lawrence's experience as an administrator, his political know-how and the renaissance which, they say, he helped engineer for the city of Pittsburgh. The party backs Gov.

Leader, its U. S. Senate candidate, as a "governor who made strides in the fields of mental health, welfare and highway work" during his fouryear residency in Harrisburg. As for the local candidates, the Republicans are hoping they will be able to cushion Congressman John P. Saylor with a big lead in this county in the event he fails to carry or come close to winning heavily-democratic Cambria Coun-1 ty.

Saylor is running for reelection in the Indiana Armstrong-Cambria district against Robert Glass, a man he defeated four years ago. The Democrats, of course, are hoping to cut into Saylor's popularity here and in Armstrong County. In the General Assembly race, incumbent William G. Buchanan (R) and newcomer Robert Bracken (D) are waging a campaign for the county's lone seat in the State! House of Representatives. Buchanan is campaigning on the platform that, in his four years, he has "protected the rural and small-town person with his voting record in Harrisburg principally in school, highway and farm issues." Bracken has repeatedly taken ex ception to Buchanan's voting record and has promised industrial development, advancements in education and improved rural The GOP will continue its county-wide politicking with a rally tonight in Cookport.

The Democratic picture, is confined to a big. party rally Saturday in Indiana. viving brothers and a sister still live there. Venice glowed with lights, The city of canals went wild. As one of the first acts of his pontificate, Pope John elevated Msgr.

Alberto di Torio to the rank of cardinal. Msgr. di lorio, 74, had served as secretary of the papal, conclave, and tradition is that the prelate who fills such duties is named a cardinal at the conclusion. The College of Cardinals thus remains at its strength of 53 and its Italian representation stays at 17. One of the urgent problems awaiting the new Pope is the naming of new members to the college, which now has 17 vacancies.

The Vatican Press Office released the brief speech to the College of Cardinals with which the new pontiff Tuesday night accepted his election. "Hearing Your (the Lord's) voice, factus sum ego et timeo' am made to tremble and have fear); knowing of my poverty and littleness is enough to cause me confusion," the Pope said, (Ike Ending Three State Campaign (Continued From Page One) organization and Rockefeller specifically had urged Eisenhower's making any major' political speech New York. press secretary sald the can National Committee had cided that the President's top campaign address.

There were 300 to 400 campaign; workers on hand as planned at each of the two party rallies at which Eisenhower did speak in New York.

He hit out at the Democrats again, but not nearly so sharply as he Pennsylvania and West Virginia- in California and last week, in New York he swatted at what he termed the dominant wing of the Democratic party. But he didn't say, as he had earlier, that the wing is made up of radicals and advocates of harebrained spending schemes. He put it this way: "What we are fighting against is the dominant wing of the party, and it is that party which 1 believe does not, in its practice, in its teachings, hold- to these straightforward, honest, sound and sane principles which have made America great." At another point Eisenhower said the Republicans "believe in sane programs instead of hysterical programs." The President concluded his New York visit by attending a National Football Foundation dinner where he was honored for lifetime devotion to the game.

Teaching rooms and instructors are in short supply in the area of Health and Physical. Education. In the departments of Science and Mathematics more advanced courses and special instruction facilities are needed for the senior high school students especially interested and gifted in these areas.
