Wins again!


Pell won his first reelection, against Ruth Briggs, in 1966 with almost 70 percent of the vote. Here he is reading the Providence Evening Bulletin on Nov. 9, the day after the election.
Trivia point: I remember the Evening Bulletin well, since I wrote for it back in the days when the Projo had two editions. In fact, I wrote the very last deadline story for the Bulletin, in 1992, about a small fire.
