The first period of the Tour-of
Kurope coolest has come to an end
?and a glorious end it wai. Sub
scriptions literally rolled Into the of
fice of the content manager. Candi
dates and the)r friends turned oht
in line style with the rush fOr ths
final day of the period. *nd the re
ault is that very many candidates
| have a surprisingly heavy reserve
vote '? tip" their; sleeves." Bat
which ones they are and ho# mucll
it hey have nobody but* themselveil
can know.
There was a Mme, not so long ago,
when the contest department could
pretty easily figure out just about
where individual candidates steod,
but now?now it's altogether differ
ent. Fortunately for gll concerned.
It Is Impossible now for)the contest
? department, or ouo else . for
that matter, to ascertain anywhere
' noaT what the reserve vote of any
active candidate may be. This Is a
double insbram iv it makes unfair
sess impossible elthor from the
standpoint of tho paper or any in
dividual candidate. The only time
when fbeso records wljl be uncover
ed and ferrl;ed out \wlll be after alt
ballots have been voted and the live
fudges figure out the standings.
Thi> first period has ended sad
first opportunities ate things of the
past. But here Is -the second period
with Its opportunities. Wonder If
