Taft Gradually Loses Lead Thus the Massachusetts score In delegates stood Eisenhower, 29; Taft, three; not formally committed, six. Eisenhower gradually has overcome Taft's long lead in committed delegate strength and there was rejoicing In the gen eral's headquarters. Taft man agers, however, believe Massa chusetts returns will prove to be the final sunburst of big Eisenhower gains. It definitely was the last direct primary con test between the senator and the gpneral. Taft Advantage Seen From there on the battle for delegates largely will be In state conventions where Taft's strong position with the party organi zation should be a considerable advantage. The claims of Taft managers that they will go into the Republican convention with around 600 votes are not stated in detail but with impressive confidence. Old, Ornate Organ On Display at Store An ornate, 100-year-old organ is now on display at the Puruck- er Piano house. The instrument, in excellent playing condition. is much wider and higher than the average organ. The keyboard has five octaves instead of four as most old organs have. The Puruckers believe the en tire case is solid rosewood. The intricately designed top part of the organ case can be removed. This part is designed like an old sideboard buffet. There are knobs, carving and cupolas, and two cupboards with beveled mir rors. At the center back is a half circle bevel mirror. The organ was manufactured by Story and Clark company, Chicago, which is still in busi ness, according to the Puruck ers. The Medford store obtained the organ recently In a trade-in on a new piano.
