Editorial: Interest Lags In City Races In 1962
In the 1962 city election only five candidates seek three council seats on April 3, with three incumbents facing challenges. The Sun notes low race interest, praises incumbents and holdovers, and emphasizes duty over salary as city offices pay no compensation. It also observes few candidates in school trustee races amid issues like revaluation, commending courteous debate and citizen involvement.

Slam by careful cooperation on a bridge hand
In a North South sequence, after four no trump and a slam attempt, South should cooperate with a heart and spade plan rather than rely on the diamond finesse. By reading hearts, trumping, and discarding, the declarer can reach six spades and make the slam despite clubs and diamonds. The article stresses flexible methods over Blackwood and emphasizes partner cooperation.
