Man Who Managed Clients for High-End Cambridge Brothel Network Pleads Guilty
Mayor John W. Lyons and Richard M. Russeil '14 won the two nominations for mayor of Cambridge in the non-partisan primary yesterday, while Albert L. Maguire '40, was nominated city councilor for Ward 7, official returns showed last night.
In Ward 6 the voters called upon two fighting Irishmen, City Councilor Michael A. Sullivan and William (Call me 'BIH') Flanagan to continue their scrapping for the council seat until the final election on Tuesday, November 7.
Maguire, Harvard's Candidate
Tailing the ballot during the early returns, Maguire's nomination was in doubt until the last votes had been counted. Maguire is a strong exponent of Plan E and is in favor of closer cooperation between the University and the city government. "If Cambridge were run from Littauer Center, it couldn't be in worse condition," he once stated.
Candidate for Councilor-at-large Edward J. Gordon ocC. had little chance of being nominated, incomplete returns indicated last night, although he will give his opponents a hard race.
Carr Still in Doubt
The results from the School Committee contest, in which Varsity Soccer Coach Carr was a candidate, were not expected until this morning. A great booster for a new athletic program for all of the Cambridge school children, Carr felt optimistic about his chances for nomination last night.
Rebuffed by the 43 votes he received, Thomas J. Daly, "The Taxpayers' Prayer for Mayor," was still singing his campaign song as he waited for the returns in the Election Commissioners' Office last night. Taking many slugs at a bottle of "cough medicine," Daly announced that he had already begun his fight for the nomination two years hence.
