Editorials Back Stadium Bonds Stir 1961 Houston Voters

It contrasts past attitudes toward wealth with modern tolerance, questions how Harris County voters will respond to the arena proposal, and recalls 1912 opposition to dredging that would have benefited a few millionaires.

Knowledgeable Bridge Play Across Two Long Suits
In a no spade contract East West vulnerable, South wins the queen of spades and declarer leads diamonds. West signals double ton, East signals, and the defense helps West establish a long suit.
