Two familiar faces will soon be gone from City Hall and the Court House. Replacing them will be Clifford L. Harman and Charles F. Greevy, elected mayor and judge respectively, in yesterday’s voting.

Children in junior high school can remember no Mayor of Williamsport except Leo C. Williamson. Recent college graduates are unable to recall a president judge of Lycoming County before Judge D.M. Larrabee.

The successors of these veteran office holders will have lengthy records at which to aim. But both were elected with a maximum of support from voters.

“Hard work and determination have been responsible for our victory. I have never let up from the time of the primaries, always keeping our program before the people,” commented Mr. Harman when asked of his election this morning.

Judge-elect Greevy had this to say, “A great sense of responsibility faces a man elected to succeed such a distinguished jurist as Don M. Larrabee. I shall do my best to meet that challenge in the 10 years ahead, always attempting to follow the wise course charted by Judge Larrabee during his service with the court. I am deeply appreciative of the trust placed in me by the voters of Lycoming County.

Mr. Harman, a patrolman with the Bureau of Police for more than 20 years, was elected by a two-to-one majority over Dr. Ira R. Sassaman, the Prohibition Party candidate.

A precedent was set when Harman swept both the Democratic and Republican nominations in the Spring primaries.
Mr. Greevy’s victory was even more one-sided, with all opposition overcome during the primaries. He too, won both major party nominations and was alone on yesterday’s ballot for the judgeship.
