DRESS, BOLERO FOR SUMMER WEAR Confident Republicans Choose YOUTHFUL FROCK IS EASY-SEWING Dewey-Warren Team for 1948 By WALTER A. SHEAD WNU Washington Correspondent PHILADELPHIA — Bowling over all opposition in an unchecked power drive toward the coveted goal of 548 votes, Governor Thomas E. Dewey, of New York, swept to victory on the third ballot at the Republican National Convention. After a night of speculation on vice-presidential candidates which included the names of Charles Halleck, of Indiana; Senator John Bricker, of Ohio; Governor Warren was put forth as the Dewey choice for the post. Governor Earl Warren, governor of California, was nominated to the vice-presidency by acclamation after Arizona had withdrawn the name of Harold E. Stassen. Actually the colorful New York­ er’s nomination came by unami- mous vote after he had demon­ strated unprecedented strength on the first ballot over six other con­ tenders for the nomination. Gov­ ernor Dewey polled 434' votes on ANOTHER CONSPICUOUS FIRST . . .
