The bidding: .'-.outh West North East I ii Pass 1 N T Dbl. 4 H All Pass A better way is simply to be alert to the possibility of such plays and to reason each one as it comes up. Mr Abel failed to do the neces,ii v reasoning in today's deal and lost his contract. 1 like his four heart bid on the second round. It was unlikely that Mr. Dale had a singleton heart. Give him any two hearts and there was a pretty fair chance that the heart losers could be limited to two. Ami there weren't many losers in the side suits. Too bad the play wasn't as good the bidding. Mrs. Keen led the .o k oi diamonds and Mr. Abel won with the king. He played the 10 of hearts in an effort, as he aid later, to "get a cover. " Win n Mrs. Keen played the j:11 k, he went up with the king ,u dummy and saw it smothered ith the ace. With the queeneight over the nine-seven, Mrs. Keen now had two additional trump winners and these, with the ace of clubs, defeated the

contract.

Mi Abel should have reasoned

i. follows: 1 '■

On the bidding, it was cleat I l * H V '* that Mr. Champion had a strong | hand. Therefore, the odds were overwhelming that he held the ace of hearts Now. if he had all four outstanding hearts or if he ha-l A Q .1 alone, the contract wa hopeless and no play would

make any difference

If he held the ace and any one olher heart again it would make uo difference how Mr. Abel play-

i d. All even so far.

Hut what if he held the ace .lone'.’ In that case it was vital foi Mr Abel to retain his king in dumnn The best play, then, to !• ,ul a low heart at trick t o and play the deuce from 'he board As you see, this would have held the heart losers to two

and made the bid.

IN MEMORY In loving memory of our son, Donald, who passed away May 1935. The garment of his soul has passed away, The shining spirits and the lov light stay, ! TIW echo of his voice, his eye-, his smile, Just as they were, are with us ail the while. Mr and Mrs. Virgil McCanunaek u LOOKING... .AT LIFE BY ERIO mNDEIS One of the vilest frauds ever perpetrated upon the public is the one called Academic Free-

dom

I'nder its mantle hide some of the most dangerous Communists and subversives of all kinds. It is a wonderful tool we have handed to Moscow for most convenient

use.

I have the highest respect for teachers as a whole, but I certainly do not think that teachers should be tinned loose in their schools and allowed to imbue their pupils with any kind of nonsense and dynamite they choose. What is there so sacrosanct about i teacher? Why should he oi -hi. be above the law? Why should the teacher have go dec rights than the physician or the lawyer? When a doctor gives his patient the wrong treatment, the effects of that wrong treatment are manifest very soon. You gel yourself another doctor. If he makes too many mistakes lie Joses his license. When a lawyer loses a case you can get yourself another lawyer and appeal your ease. If he loses too many cases he'll soon have t" Ho.-c his office and get himself anothei job -maybe as a tea-

Chei Of law If he Is TOO crook id he is disbarred. But a teacher, under the guise „f "academic freedom, can inject slow poison into the minds ol hundreds of students year after year, undetected, unpunished. It is bad enough to poison n person's body. But for most poisons. if discovered soon enough, there is an antidote. For the poison of the mind there IS no antidote. And it poisons not only ONE mind, but many. A poisoned mind is the most contagious disease under the sun. \Ve Americans are a pretty gullible lot. We fall for more slogans and catch phrases than anyone else in the world. Thus we have made a lot of laws that were all very fine when w . lived in splendid isolation, and when we had not yet become the victims of a lot of transatlantic and transpacific adventurers who soon discovered that Ve were the easiest bunch of suckers to hoodwink. So they worked every known confidence scheme they knew on us and we fell for anyone of

them.

1 should really not say "worked" and "fell.' It should be "work" and "fall.” Because we are still suckers jihI fall guys for every nation that sheds crocodile tears on us and tells us a good sob story. Don't you think it's about time that we get a little hard? Don't you think that we are grown up enough to see these schemes for what they arc and be on our guard ? Don't you think that instead of "academic freedom' we should have, in our scvhools and elsewhere. a sense of >•••?. !ity and

teach our children the real facts

of life?
