By PATRICIA WIGGINS
United Preii Correspondent
Washington (u.R; , Thirty
one women including an avia
trix a iculptress, and a former
jail matron are winding up
congressional election campaigns
which may bring a record num
ber of petticoat politicians to
Washington.
Only one of the groupMrs.
suzanne Silvercruys Stevenson,
sister of the Belgian ambassador
is running for the Senate. The
sculptress is running as an in
dependent Republican from Con
necticut. Q
The rest are bidding for House
seats.
A record high of 16 women
served in the House in tfr
session of the 84th Congress.
Rep. Vera Buchanan's death left
the number at 15.

guerite Stitt Church is being
challenged by a Democratic new

date in the primary. O
