Priest to undergo surgery GARY, Ind. (UPI)— A critically injured Serbian Orthodox priest underwent surgery to relieve pressure on his brain Monday as Gary police announced seven persons had been arrested as suspects in his near-fatal beating last Thursday night. . Rev. Peter A. Bankerovich, pastor of the St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church here, remained in critical condition with a skull fracture following the four hour operation. Semi-conscious part of the time since the beating, his only words have been “Why? Why?" The suspects were identified as Magnolia Ross, 33, Edward D. Gillespie, 25, Beatrice Ivy, 23,, Ronnie Lewis, 19, Robert Spencer, 26, Leroy Hemphill, 19, and a juvenile. Police said the priest, known to his parishioners as “Father Pete,” was beaten on the head with a baseball bat on the church grounds in what was described as a robbery. His assailants got $2 and a wristwatch. Police said he was beaten with the bat by a man and then by a woman. At first, it was thought a lead pipe was used. About 900 parishioners and 750 Negroes joined in a service on the front yard of the church Sunday to pray for “Father Pete.” The suspects are all Negro. Rev. Basil Veinovich, New York, who is substituting for “Father Pete,” said “all white laymen who were distressed by the assassination of Martin Luther King can now more fully understand the situation here.” Several members of the Gary city council were present at the Sunday services. Before the arrests were announced, there had been talk among the parishioners of organizing a vigilante movement, but'Nick Sever, president of the church’s board of directors, said “this is something that Father Pete would not want. The man wouldn’t hurt a flea.” Sever said some of the church members were Chetniks, who he described as fierce guerrilla fighters who battled Hitler’s armies when Serbia was invaded in World War II. However, a statement from the church board after the arrests were announced said its main objective was justice.

It is axiomatic that making the contract is declarer's first consideration, but pursuing this objective in every case is much more easily said than done. Consider this hand where declarer went down. East won the club lead with the ace and returned a club to dummy’s queen. Declarer elected to lead the queen of diamonds from dummy. When East showed out. South could no longer make the

him.

But. even so, South's failure to make the contract is a violation of the principle referred to above. Declarer's only concern from the start should be the possibility of a 4-0 diamond division. His play should consequently be shaped so as to cope with a 4-0 distribution, whether East has the four diamonds, or

West.

Instead of letting the club return at trick two ride around to dummy, he should climb up with the king and lead a low diamond towards the Q-J. In the actual case, West finds it impossible to make more than one diamond trick with his holding, whether he takes the king now or later, and the result is that South makes nine tricks without a fi-

nesse.

The outcome is the same if it develops that East is the player with four diamonds. He makes one diamond trick, but no more.

Voters fail to reach record heights

By HORTENSE MYERS INDIANAPOLIS (UP!)—Indiana voters failed to turn out in record numbers for the presidential election Nov, 5, according to complete official tabulations on nine of the top election races in Indiana. The turn-out fell short of the 1960 total and still-standing record of 2,135,360 votes for President of the United States. The 1968 total was 2,123,597. This means that the total percentage of eligible voters also has declined with the probable percentage for this time about 73 per cent, compared to 76 per cent in 1960, and 74 per cent in 1964. However, the 1968 percentage figure has not yet been determined officiaUy. The failure to attain a record voter turn-out may be linked with the failure of the independent parties, particularly the George C. Wallace Party, to attract as many voters as their leaders thought they would. Another possibility is that many Negro voters didn’t vote. The official tabulations shows GOP president-elect Richard M. Nixon with 1,067,885 votes in Indiana, compared to 806,659 for the Democratic nominee, Vice President Hubert Humphrey, and 243,108 for Wallace. The other two minority parties — Prohibition’s Harold Munn,Sr. garnered 4,616 and Socialist Workers nominee Fred Halstead, 1,293. Total vote for Dick Gregory, write-in candidate of the New Politics Party, was 36. The other official results for which the Secretary of State’s office has completed official tabulation are: Governor: Whitcomb, the GOP winner, 1,080,271; Lt. Gov Robert L. Rock, the Democratic nominee 965,816, and Prohibitionist Melvin E. Hawk, 2,985. Lt. Gov.: Richard E. Folz, Republican, 1,084,904; James W. Beatty, Democrat, 922,352; and James Harkless, Prohibition, 3,247. The presidential total was the highest of those tabulated. While comparisons are incomplete, Whitcomb carried 66 of the 92 counties. Rock’s 26 counties were mostly in southern Indiana. He carried only six counties north of U.S. 40 and lost his home county of Madison and his home 10th District. U.S. Senator; Birch Bayh, Democrat, 1,060,456; William D. Ruckelshaus, Republican, 988,571; Earl Malcom, Prohibition, 2,844, and Ralph Levitt, Social Worker, 1,247. Auditor: Trudy Slaby Etherton, Republican, 1,075,826; Betty Sheek, Democrat, 922,512; Terry Crall, Prohibition, 3,235. Attorney General: Theodore Sendak, Republican, 1,043,059; John J. Dillon, Democrat, 963,698.

DEAR HELOISE: Empty a can of kidney beans into a strainer. Run cold water over them until all the bubbles wash away. Then put the beans into a jar and season with salt, pepper and garlic salt. Now, cover completely with !jnrli< or n ine vinegar. Screw on the lid and store 'em in your refrigerator. When you make a mixed green salad and wish to add color and tang, add a few of those beans. Sure gi%’es it a nice tart taste. When you use all the beans, open another can and repeat the process. adding just enough of the same type vinegar to cover ’em again. The vinegar mixture can be used repeatedly. I find the beans are a godsend for color when tomatoes are the price of gold nuggets. Mrs. John Brannelly * * * Now, folks, just wait ’til you make some of those beans. I did. I gave some to three neighbors and they all loved it. And, dad-gum, is that can of beans inexpensive! Only takes a few minutes to fix a pint jar. What I like about it the mostess AFTER the taste, is it’s so convenient and always ready to toss into that colorless lettuce salad. Yon talk about tang and whang? This has it. Mrs. John, honey, you’re a living doll. Heloise * * DEAR HELOISE: I do a lot of sewing by hand, yet am unable to wear a thimble. So I wrap a strip of masking tape around and over my finger where the needle usually pricks it. I find this to be a real finger saver because the rough surfaced tape lets me grip the needle firmly. Leona Martinez * !!•' •* DEAR HELOISE. Have you ever taken care of someone who is ill and had this experience ? You just changed the sheets only to have a spill or a hot water bottle leak getting the mattress, sheets, blankets and bedspread all wet ? 1 solved this problem by using my hair dryer (without the capi. In minutes everything was dry again. No more plumping up the sheets with towels and having that dampness around the sick one. Mrs. Phillip Gallina * * * LETTER OF THOUGHT DEAR HELOISE: I don't know anyone in Vietnam, but I did want to let

someone know how I felt about the good job the servicemen are doing. In our city, a family who was proud of their son put his address in the paper so friends could write to him. I don't know him but we are from the same town. So I send him interesting news items from our local paper to him. Once in a while I send an all-occasion card or anything that might help ease his stay. I've never heard from this young man and I don’t ever expect to. but it makes me feel so much better knowing at least one person over there knows how I feel. Kay Bean Kay, it takes good people like you to keep this old world going around. You are absolutely the greatest. Love, Heloise :}: J»: .•*: DEAR HELOISE: Maybe some of your leaders have the same problem with sweaters that I have. That is, that they can’t wear wool or mohair sweaters because of the "itchy” fibers. I was given a beautiful fuzzy mohair sweater, so I lined it with an old longsleeved blouse. Sure solved my problem. Now I don’t have to worry about the itching and can wear it comfortably. Joan Dwyer * * * DEAR HELOISE: If you hate to reach for that wet-mop after it has dried stiff since last use, rinse it before you put it away in water mixed with a little fab ric softener It'll feel much nicer and smell better next time you start to use it.
