took in the early House returns, they
were losing ground in the Senate
race.

overcame the early lead of John L.

and is now running little ahead of
him.

Dickey, the Republican candidate, is
pressing Senator Reed, the Demo-
cratic incumbent. closely.

Senator Sutherland. Republican. of
Utah, by Will II. King.
