Several Factors Influence. Decision To Take Discard Pile Or Turn It Down

By OSWALD JACOBY

WHEN you decide whether or not to take the discard pile there are four important points to consider: ONE: The number of cards in the pile. This is the

most important consideration. If the pile contains more than eight cards, it is almost invariably wise to take it. If the pile contains from five to eight cards, you have a very close decision to make. If the pile contains only four cards (or fewer), it 1s usually good play to refuse to take it. TWO: The chance that your side will get the pile later on if you pass it up. If you are certain to get it eventually, you can afford to pass a pile of any size. If you have very little chance

to get the pile later on, you must take even a small pile. » - s » ” ~ THREE: THE VALUE of the cards in the pile.

Obviously,

a pile that contains a card that gives you a canasta is more valuable than a pile that contains only odd unmeldable cards.

You can pass up a worthless pile because the loss is small even if it gets away from you; but you don't take such risks

with a really valuable pile.

Incidentally, you take no chances with a pile that contains cards that are very valuable to the opponents. portant to stop the enemy as it is to make progress of your own. FOUR: Your method of taking the pile. If you can take the pile by adding the top card to one of your melds, you are saving all the cards in your hand for future use.

ANSWER-—There is no limit in the official rules, If it is your turn to play and you wish to discard a deuce or a joker, you may do so—-regardless of how many wild cards have been discarded previously. Local players who favor a different procedure are just laying up trouble for themselves. After all, what do they expect a player to do .if he happens to hold nothing but wild cards in his hand?

Use Borrowed Car With Care

By JOAN BORROWING is a bad habit, but sometimes it’s unavoidable. Take the matter of driving another's car. It has to be done on occasion.

On a date or while visiting,

family bus. A smart lad clears the matter with Sue's pop ahead of time. He may simply say, driving Sue to the club, OK with you, Mr. Smith.” Anything to let the man know that you're accepting responsibility. And if Pop prefers to have Susie at the wheel, a suave fellow never crabs or sulks. And he doesn’t change places when he's out of sight. In case of an accident, what a spot to be in. » ” o NATURALLY a boy does his most conservative chauffering when he's piloting Mr, Smith's car. ‘He doesn’t take chances on a broken spring by trying

Hearing Trouble

Is a Symptom By EDWIN P. JORDAN,

SEVERAL good questions about Meniere's disease have been sent in by Mrs. W. “How,” she asks, ‘‘can a specialist tell that a person has Meniere's disease?” First there are the symptoms of dizzy . ringing

of hearing. Then there are a number of special tests including spinning in a rotating chair and testing with tuning forks. In fact the special methods and equipment available are such that an accurate diagnosis can almost always be made.

» ” » ANOTHER thing Mrs. W. asks is whether Meniere's disease is related to a brain tumor. The answer to this is “usually not.” Once in a while a brain tumor

Dr. Jordan

produces symptoms similar to |

those of Meniere's disease but this is the cause only in a small proportion of those who suffer with this condition. The majority of cases are caused by the accumulation of fluid in the inner portion of the ear (sometimes spoken of as dropsy). If the amount of fluid can be lessened the symptoms tend to improve. Hence one form of treatment has been aimed at cutting down the fluid intake of the body or removing excess fluid. Other medical treatments are often used involving the giving of certain drugs. The disease is not Rather it tends to run on for years with gradual improvement in some of the unpleasant symptoms such as dizziness and ringing in the ears. There is apt to be some increase in the loss of hearing.

ANS

QUESTION: Please explain for me the nature of a hernia of the diaphragm and the operation for it. ANSWER: The diaphragm is a muscle which divides the chest from the abdomen and moves back and forth with breathing. If a weak spot develops in it, some of the abdominal organs may pusn up towards the chest, sometimes giving symptoms much like those of an ulcer. The only permanent cue is surgical repair which I understand from surgical colleagues is not too difficult or dangerous and is highly effective. 4 ® n = _ QUESTION: Could" a fall on the lower part of the back cause enough injury to the kidneys and passageways to produce renal colic? ANSWER: Renal colic is defined as pain produced by the passage of a kidney stone along the tube leading from the kidney to the bladder. An injury would not be likely to cause a stone, but it is possible that it might jar a stone loosevso that it would then cause colic.
