Gen. MacArthur goes to baseball games in a Uncle Ef— business suit but seems to always wear his uniform when he travels around making political speeches. Arch Nearbrite says maybe the general doesn’t want to muss up his civvies traveling. It's funny, too, that he permitted his name to be presented for the Republican nomination four years ago but now says

Fine Player Knows When To Abandon Standard Play

ISS BRASH’'S explosive bidding landed this hand in a sporting slam contract which would have been made except for the astuteness of Mr. Masters on the defense. One of the " marks of a fine player is his ability to recognize the situation where routine or standard practices must be t e mporarily forgotten. In this deal, Mr. Masters won the first trick Miss Brash with the king of diamonds, Mr. Abel playing the deuce. In most “cases, continuing with the ace of diamonds would be fatal. The reason is, of course, that the ace would be ruffed in dummy, setting up the queen in declarer’s hand. This could very well hand declarer a trick which he could not have developed for himself.

» = = BUT HERE Mr. Masters was willing to make some sacrifice in order to reduce dummy’s trump holding to a fewer number than he himself held. He therefore led the ace of diamonds at trick two and Mr. Champion had to ruff in dummy or admit defeat at the start. ; i After this, no matter what

§ line of play he tried, he could

not set up dummy’'s heart suit and get back to the board to

spades, leads back another small heart and ruffs with the king of spades. He then lays down the queen of spades and when Mr. Abel shows out it is a simple matter to finesse dummy’s eight spot on the next spade lead, then pick up the rest of Mr. Master’ spades. The balance of dummy would be good.

For the first time, a brother of a last year’s winner has been selected as a Winner of the Week. Andrew Smerek Jr. of Allentown, Pa., follows in the footsteps of his brother, Bobby, and wins a TRY IT book. Andy’s idea will be a lot of fun for those of you who like to push wagons, velocipedes, and pushmobiles, up and down the sidewalk. This speedometer is made from a milk carton. If you want to make one for a space ship, you will have to chart the mileage in hundreds of miles per hour. Cover a paper milk carton with plain paper by pasting it around the sides. You will have to cut out a cardboard pointer for the speed indicator. Andy's center views shows 8 curved cut slit below the miles where a paper clip holds the pointer so it will turn. Strings attached at each side

on a round disk adjusted by hand. TOMORROW—A Key Board for Dad.
