The type of leadership

four years will be deter-
mined at the ballot boxes
Tuesday, but the weather
may prove the decisive fad-
tor.
Sunday's heavy downpour
likely will leave some country
roads impassable, and skies were
still drippy Monday, but the
weatherman held out some hope
the storm may pass by Tuesday.
Both Sides Watch Weather
Hi* prediction for election day was
"mostly cloudy in the south and east
with occasional light rain in the
southeast: partly cloudy in the north-
west and slightly warmer in the north-
we*t.”
Democratic and Republican leaders
were turning a wgry eye skyward
Monday, hoping for a break in the
weather to stimulate a big turnout at
the poll* Tuesday.
Though claiming an edge in the
race. Democratic leaders are counting
