Unicameral Change Proposed for Nebraska Legislature
Dr. John P. Senning urges nonpartisan conventions in each of Nebraska’s 43 legislative districts less than two months before candidacy filing. He aims to draft capable candidates to ensure the one house system functions well, with endorsement from Senator Norris though wary of party machinery. The bicameral era’s districting flaws, noted by Assistant Attorney General Murphy, center on Douglas County gerrymandering concerns.

East 9 Bridge Brain Twister No 56
In a bridge hand East Miss Leary defends a 4 Spade contract. South misplays by not trumping clubs earlier, allowing East to win key tricks with trumps and clubs. The column notes the correct strategy of drawing trumps first to avoid an imminent ruff and credits East with a decisive defense.
Spade Trump Leads to Seven Tricks in Card Play
South plays ace of hearts and returns the deuce of clubs to the jack, then cashes king of spades discarding ace of clubs. Nine of clubs is won, seven of clubs led, East squeezed if West holds eight of clubs, diamond return forced. If West discards eight of clubs North wins seven of clubs and heart. East must win and give two tricks to another. United States leads in gold fabrication for jewelers dentists and scientists.
