Candidate Apparent Winner Over Griswold. lead of Raymond E. Willis. Re-1 publican candidate for United States senator, was cut to 1.000 over Senator Frederick Van Nuys InTlTgR Democrat, as the unofficial count I neared completion early this morning. Belated returns constantly reduced the Willis lead which had reached as high as 7,000 at one time during the tabulation.

Precincts yet to be reported in the photo finish contest for a seat in the United States senate are predominantly in counties which are showing a Democratic trend. In 3,611 precincts out of 3,872 the vote is. Van Nuys. 732,194, and Willis, 733.194. Because of the character of unreported precincts Democratic state headquarters insisted that Van Nuys will nose out his Republican opponent by several thousand.

Possibility that the Willis lead could be either greatly diminished or wiped out by delayed returns from -Vlgo county stirred Republican state headquarters action. A delegation of attorneys was dispatched to Terre Haute last night to demand that reports be made on precinct returns in Vigo county which have been held up during the day. An analysis of the vote when precincts had been tabulated revealed that Senator Van Nuys could expect to make gains in a majority of the 460 precincts un- r'eported. The scope of the Republican which may extend to the and legislative contest, exceeded even the fondest hopes of moat of the party's state leaders. They had been confident of some bnt hadn't expected as much as they received.

State returns were slow in accumulating, but the so-called "glide ballot" cast in the contest for secretary of state indicated the O. O. P. state ticket most of it at least would be swept into the statehouse if Willis wins. P.
