DEMOCRATS FEAR

Raleigh, June T.-There appears to

the county in the Republican column

Those who fear such a consumma-

point out that Johnston "hase gone
Republican before; but an examlna-
tion of election returns of past years
shows that there would have to be a
tremendous turnover to GUST the Dem

It's true that Johnston voted Re-

West opened the queen Of diamonds.
Declarer won with the ace and quickly
got himself into an awful mess. He
played his two top hearts, ruffed a
heart in dummy, returned to his hand
with the ace Of spades and ruffed his
remaining heart. On this play West
chucked q spade. Dummys king and
jack of clubs were now played, and
when East showed out on the second
round, declarer tried desperately to
cash some spade tricks. Alas. West
trumped dummy's king of spades and
the defense won two more diamond
tricks.
Now let's look At the hand from the
angle Of dummy. North dummy has
a losing diamond and q possible losing
spade. After the diamond ace wins
the first trick, two rounds of trumps
should be played. When East shows
out, declarer should not be the, least
dismayed. He should simply play the
ace Of spades. lead the four over to
dummy's king, then trump 4 spade
with top trump. The two remaining
trumps should then be drawn by
dummy and the remaining spades
are now established. The losing dia-
mond Is conceded to the opponents.
but that Is all.
Certainly not difficult hand to play.
But deciarer, looking at it from the
wrong angle, saw only his own losing
hearts and diamonds and therefore
threw away an easy slam.
