FAIRLY SPOKEN Caltural and Culinary Platitudes Need Spice By Margaret I-atrobe Now that the former Goverr.or of New York, and Mrs. Dewey, have left behind the ugly brown state mansion at Albany end located themselves in a fine apartment in Manhattan - I wond€T if they are still having roast lamb for dinner every few days? It’s funny how odd bits and pieces of interviews stick in the mind. It wouldn't be surprising if Mrs. Dewey had forgotten that the Governor once inquired what she had planned for dinner, and wasn't happy to hear about the leg of lamb. To which she very aptly replied— ’“Well, there are only a certain number of things one can have for dinner !’’ And isn’t it so! Most of us read the excellent recipes for varying the beans and bacon, persue the color pictures of succulent souffles, truffled corn pudding and the like. Then we go right back to the pork chops Monday, soup on Tuesday, lamb on Wednesday, cheese on Thursday, fish on Friday. Saturday anil Sunday is your own business. It’s easier that way. The family gets used to sameness, even in rotation. Keeps the mind free for more important issues. Pork chops will do the trick, so why worry about it. It’s easy to feed the mind the

same way. It gets used to a certain pattern of ideas. Certain ideas are palatable, others not. In our house, our section of town, ve think thus and so We approve of this, not that. We like our politics a certain way. We like a touch of variety through the wfek, but we want to start right ,ver again on Monday with the ame old pattern. “It was good enough for Grandpa and it's good enough, etc. . .” There isn't a single thing wrong with a saddle of lamb— but a little garlic and marjoram brightens it up a lot. Nor is there anything wrong with a certain trend of thinking, just as long as it doesn't become the iron clad ritual for a specific time or place. A little spice and garlic does wonders for the inroads of the mind. A little change from platitudes, whether of the culinary or the vutlook a better seasoned proluct. SIIOKT MOVE

Often such a bid is followed by three passes and it is discovered later that game was possible in the suit dn which his partner overealled. Remember that when your partner overcalls you simply cannot afford the luxury of describing your hand in detail. If partner’s overcal! is in a major and you have enough to raise him, give him the raise at once even though you hold a good five-or

six-card suit of your own. After all. the final contract cannot be played in two suits. NO SENSE If Mr. Masters had been the dealer in today's hand and had opened the bidding with a spade, Mr. Champion would have bid two clubs. This would have been his proper call as he was too strong for a smgle spade raise and not strong enough for a jump to tnree spades. The twoj club bid would have been forcing for one round. But it was Mr. Abel who opened the bidding and Mr. Masters’ one spade bid was an overcall. Now Mr. Champion did not have time to bid two clubs. In the first place, that bid was r.ot forcing. Also, it made no sense. Three spades to the jack was amply support because an overcall is practically never made on less than a five-card suit. Mr. Champion made the right bid— two spades. With more than he needed for his first bid, Mr. Masters tried for the spade game. DIAMOND EED Mrs. Fusty led the deuce of diamonds and Mr. Masters won with the ace. Wisely, he decided he did not have “time” to go to dummy and take tire spade finesse. If he had led to dummy’s king of hearts at trick two and finessed spades on the way back, Mrs. Fusty could have won and led another heart, setting up a winner in that suit while Mr. Abel still had the ace of clubs. Mr. Masters would have lost a trick in each suit. But at trick two Mr. Masters led the ace of spades and followed with a small spade. Mrs. Fusty won with the king and

led a diamond. Mr. Abel won and returned a small heart, but it was too late. Mr. Masters won with dummy's king, picked up the last trump and led clubs until the ace was knocked out. He then was able to park his losing heart on dummy's Clubs.
