Rhodes was given a big endorsement when he swept to a landslide re-election victory over State Senator Frazier Reams Jr. in yesterday's general election. With Rhodes running better than he did in 1962, a Republican sweep of the top statewide offices was assured. The governor's re-election is certain to thrust him into the party's national lime- light in looking to the national elections in 1968.

  • Brother Powel Crosley, Jr
    Brother Powel Crosley, Jr. Queen City Entrepreneur, Industrialist, and Sportsman by Dr. Ivan M. Tribe, KCT, KYCH, 330 Some people are born innovatorsalthough it may take some time for them to find their proper niche, so to speak. The subject of this sketch made his mark in life as an inventor, a businessman, a radio pioneer, and as owner of a major league baseball team, all in the city of Cincinnati, Ohio. Brother Powel Crosley wore a number of hats in his varied career, and while he had his share of disappointments, by and large he demonstrated a considerable degree of success. Today, his name is probably best remembered for the ball park that bore his name during what many consider the Golden Age of the National Game, but he was much more than that. Powel Crosley, Jr., was born in Cincinnati on September 18, 1886, the son of Charlotte Utz and Powel Crosley, Sr., an attorney who had moved his practice to the Queen City area of Cincinnati, Ohio, from Warren County. As a youth, he attended public schools in the College Hill section and then attended the Ohio Military Institute from which he was graduated in 1905. From childhood, he demonstrated a great deal of energy in gadgets and new technological developments. At the age of twelve, he built a four-wheeled wagon powered with an electric motor and sold it to his father, who had promised him he would buy it for ten dollars if it worked. To his father's surprise it did work! The proud youngster repaid his eight dollar expense, gave his investor-brother Lewis a dollar, and "gloatingly pocketed" a ten percent profit.
