Kennedy JUDGE SUPERIOR COURT FLINT CIRCUIT Lawyer Former Judge Veteran World War ' Wounded in Combat I have made a very strenuous campaign and have covered a large part of the Circuit. I will con tinue seeing and talking to the voters. I find the average citizen looks upon our State Courts as the hope of our people, the salvation of our youth. The people tell me they are making up their own minds about who should be Judge. That they are going to vote their own convictions on the judgeship. They say they don’t want whoever is elected Judge to play politics with their Courts, and, for that reason they don’t intend to play politics in the Judgeship race. More and more of them say: “We are going to support the candidate who will make the best Judge. We will allow nothing to change our minds. As far as we are concerned there will be no last minute vote switching on this race for Judge.” Sincerely, HARVEY J. KENNEDY v Candidate for Judge (This ad paid by the Lamar County friends of Har vey J.
