Mr. Champion led the queen of hearts, and Mr. Dale siw that he had 11 top tricks. If the dianonds broke j-3. he had 12 ■i< k:'. but he wisely decided not u. bank everything on that. To et the stage for a possible queeze, he conceded the first n ick, noting that Mr. Muzzy signaled encouragingly with the eight spot. Mr. Champion now led the nine ol hearts. This may have been a satisfactory play with a good partner, although even then the jac k would have made things crystal clear. Mu/./.y Bungles The nine of hearts baffled Mr. Muzzy. After long thought he felt called upon to go up with the king. This left him with the four which, of course, would not beat dummy’s seven sport, and the whole burden of guarding the heart suit now rested on Mr. Champion's shoulders. Mr. Champion also had the job of holding on to four diamonds to stop the run of that suit. It turned out that he couldn’t do everything. Mr. Dale won the second trick with the ace of hearts, eashed the ace and king of spades and then ran all five of his clubs. On the fourth club he discarded the eight of spades from the board. On the lead of the- last club Mr. Champion had to make a play from a holding of the jack of la arts and has four original diamonds. It was absolutely certain that if he dropped the heart, dumyV seven would take a trick. Diamonds Set I’p There was at least a chance that Mr. Muzzy held the queen and jack of diamonds, so he dis-

■

INDIANAPOLIS. Jan. <UPi The 1955 Indiana Lcg.sl&ture. which convenes Thursday, is ready to give more mon y to schools, particularly for construction of new classrooms. There is strong sentiment among lawmakers for consruction aid, a lesser amount fo*- higher teachers’ salaries, and some for levision of the education aid formula. Of 80 senators and representatives who answered a United Press poll. 59 proposed new legislation providing school building construction funds, two opposed construction aid, and 19 were undecided. Forty-seven said teachers' salaries should be increased, 12 said no, anil 21 were undecided. Asked if they favored a proposed new formula basing state aid on enrollment instead of salaries, 35 voted yes, eight no, and 57 ’.'nleeided. Govenor Craig has classified education as the legislature’s aiggest financial headache. State School Supt. Wilbur Young proposed spending 10 million dollars each year for the next six to "jild needed classrooms. ~The money would come from a general fund surplus, which now totals 80 million dollars. Of ine lawmakers favoring some construction aid, 23 suggested using some of that surplus. They differed on whether to hand it out as gifts or as loans. A representative suggested creating a revolving fund, whereby school corporations coulu borrow, then repay the money. “Sensible school districts not based on township or county lines would help,” a representative said. A colleague agreed, insisting that the legislature -hould force consolidation. Nine legislators said local communities should solve the matter. “This problem has been solved _>y some local units, and the rest an solve it if they try,” a sendor said. “Make the local people take the burden and reduce cost of construction. We have school buildings in a 25-mile adius that cost from $16,000 to 50,000 per classroom. Why? Another said aid should be imited solely to classrooms And T do mean school buildings aid not gymnasiums,” he said. A few proposed construction aid for a new state tax. a gross income surtax or gasoline taxes. Lawmakers advocating an increase in teachers’ salaries above the current $3,783 average suggested boosts ranging from S200 to 81,200 a year. “Alore emphasis should bo placed on raising the lowest end of the scale, the beginners,” a representative commente d Several agreed with him. A senator who opposed paying more state funds for teachers said “local communities should have the power to raise them to what they want to pay.” An undecided legislator said "let's give them a year-round contract and use our idle schools." The new formula for distribution of state tuition support was outlineu not recommended —by the State Tax Study Commission. It would base a school’s share of state aid on enrollment instead of teachers’ salaries, The large number of undecided voters indicated this plan will take a lot of explaining. A representative who voted unde1 tided charged that “a lot of chiseling is going on” under the present formula.
