Blithe as a lark, he led out the ace and king of trumps. Too late, South discovered that man's portion Is misery.

West got in with the ace of diamonds, drew two more rounds of trumps and ran the hearts. South was down four, losing 400 points. If you're wondering how South could make his contract, you can relax. He had to go down with the trumps breaking 4-1; but he didn't have to go down four. SHOULD UNDERLEAD After drawing one round of trumps with the ace South should lead a low trump instead of the king.

If both opponents follow suit, South can regain the lead and draw the last trump with his king. This is just as good, as leading the king of trumps first. If South underleads a trump, West steps up with the jack of trumps but cannot afford to lead a third trump. South sees the bad trump break and switches to diamonds before touching any more trumps. West can get two trumps, a heart and a diamond, but nothing else.

South is down only one instead of four. Even in the most prosperous times it pays to save 300 points when you can. DAILY QUESTION Partner opens with 1 NT (16 to 18 points) and the next player passes.

(c) 1775, Los Angeles Time Sanitary district may rcccivo ovcrduo payments DEADWOOD Directors of the Lead-Deadwood Sanitary District received encouragement that overdue engineering payments may be made in the near future Wednesday, when Larry Jeffries, manager, reported receipt of a Treasury Department notice of $561,575 payment through the Environmental Protection Agency.

An accompanying state voucher for $37,514 represented 5 per cent of the Department of Environmental Protection share of overdue costs. Directors noted, however, that the total will be but around three-fourths of previous engineering and studies costs for a project to treat sewer wastes from Lead, Deadwood and surrounding communities along with industrial wastes from Homestake Mining Co. Jeffries also reported that the last tax payment on the district's special mill levy received from Lawrence County was in November. The trustees approved aerial photography to be done in cooperation with Homestake in conjunction with recording of elevations on which cost to the district will be and plans for recording high water flows in storm drainage and sanitary sewer lines to determine amounts of ground water infiltration. They also noted that a second project review meeting of EPA, DEP and other interested agencies, organizations or individuals is scheduled 9:30 a.m.

Monday at the Howard Johnson Motor Lodge in Rapid City. The trustees, who said they generally feel the Grizzly Gulch site will provide the best solution for the project, also said it is probable some agreement on site and type of system may be reached at the meeting.

IHioklauo in By WILL CRIMSLEY NEW YORK (AP) It's a commercial cliche but you can't discount toe truth of It for tennis "You've come long way, baby." Who would have Imagined five years ago that on April 22, 1975 a little miss with a golden bow In ber hair and a two-fisted tennis grip would be setting a faster money pace than golfers Johnny Miller and Jack Nlcklaus? Chris Evert Is. Official money standings released by the U.S. Lawn Tennis Association show Miss Evert has earned $171,450 In 10' tournaments this year while Miller has picked up $149,476 and Masters champion Nicklaus $149,242 in pacing the men's pro golf tour.

ft Is Ironic that $50,000 of Miss Evert's earnings were gained Sunday In the World Series of Women's Tennis at Austin, at the expense of Billle Jean King. It was Blllie Jean who took women's tennis by the sneaker straps and lifted it to Its present lofty status a better money maker for the contestants than the men's tennis tours bankrolled by millionaire Lamar Hunt of Dallas and Commercial Union Assurance of Boston and better than both the men's and women's golf circuits. A few years ago the women were just preliminary frills for the major tennis tournaments. Their ratio of prize money was about one-seventh that of the men. They were the spear carriers.

Billle Jean let out a scream that could be beard all the way to Kalamazoo. She fretted, fumed, threatened and carried out boycotts. She became the Carrie Nation of women's tennis. People started listening. They also Prep high jump standard fells PIERRE Todd County's Randy Parker set a state high school high Jump record Friday in a triangular meet.

(AP) Rik Massengale, frustrated after the 1974 golf season, planned to be milking dairy cows this year but instead is milking a $12,000 check today as winner of the $0,000 Tallahassee Open. Massengale was a two-shot victor over Bert Yancey and Spike Kelley after a head-to-head duel with Yancey In Sunday's final round. His closing even-par 72 gave him a 72-hole score of 274, fourteen under par at pie Killearn Golf and Country Club.

Yancey, with a 69, and Kelly, with 68, ended at 276 for $5,550 each. Massengale won only $14,193 last en-uinn attar nswbatina In 1 07 "I was thinking of quitting the tour last year to go into a dairy farm," said the father of two. "A contractor was set to build me a dairy farm near San Antonio. Lucky for me, the dairy Business went sour and I decided to stay on the tour." The victory here boosted the five-year pro's season earnings to $42,311, made him exempt from qualifying for a year, and earned him spots in the Masters and Tournament of Champions. Mike Morley of Minot, N.D., shot 71-74-73-68-286 and won $310.

The women In their flouncing ballerina skirts and lace-fringed panties became one of the most saleable commercial commodities on national television. Emergence of other bright new personalities helped the cute Miss Evert, an unflappable princess; vivacious Evonne Coolagong, from the Australian outback; Margaret Court, perhaps the best woman athlete In the world; green-eyed and fiery Virginia Wade of Britain, and 18-year-old Martina Navratilova of Czechoslovakia. They're a bright cast. Every weekend there Is a new act.

Almost always there Is a surprise ending. The girls are so closely matched any one of a half-dozen Is liable to win. The men's tennis circuit Is far less exciting. Politics and rivalries are so Intense that the best players John Newcombe, Rod Laver, Jimmy Connors and Arthur Ashe rarely meet. They are put into small bunches and marketed to outlying world capitals.

While Miss Evert and Ms. King were playing for $50,000 first prize In Women's World Series of Tennis, the lady golfers were performing In their richest event the Dinah Shore Winners Circle Classic at Palm Springs, Calif. Sandra Palmer was the winner, picking up $32,000. That sent her to the top of the women's money ladder with for the year. Kathy McMullen Is second with $23,500 and Jane Blalock third with $22,992.

Seven women tennis players have earned more than Miss Palmer and three others almost as much. Miss Navratilova, the Czech teen-ager, has won $100,763 on the courts and Virginia Wade $88,063. Spirits lose Freddie Lewis ST. LOUIS (AP) The Kentucky Colonels may be set to wrap up their Eastern Division American Basketball Association playoff final by way of a bad bounce. Locked in a struggle Sunday night with the Spirits of St.

Louis, the Colonels were able to capitalize on a tumble by Freddie Lewis to speed to a 117-98 triumph and a 3-1 lead in the, series. "I came down on Artis Gllmore's foot," Lewis, the Spirits' 6-foot playmaker, said tearfully after departing in the third quarter. "The doctor said that he will not play tomorrow whether It's broken or not," St. Louis Coach Bob MacKinnon disclosed before rays on Lewis' sprained left ankle proved negative. Lewis, who had riddled the Colonels at a 33.3 scoring pace In three previous games, collapsed under Kentucky's basket as Ted McGain hit a field goal.

And, although St. Louis soon afterward surged to an 82-75 lead, a rash of floor errors and missed shots by his teammates soon extracted its toll. KENTUCKY (117) W.
