He returned the ten of clubs, dummy ducked and so did Mrs. I Keen. Mr. Abel won with the queen, but he still had to lose two ! clubs for down one. When the last card hit the table, Mr. Abel saw- the light. 'Tm sorry, partner,” he moaned. “I should have made it. SPADES BETTER “After winning the first trick a-nd taking out trumps. I should have led a spade. Champion w-ould have continued spades and when I ruffed the third lead of the suit, I should have led a j club not a diamond. “They couldn’t have won more than two club tricks.” Mr. Abel went on. “And after the clubs i were gone, they would have had two choices—both bad. A diamond lead would have automatically- held my diamond losers I to one. A spade or a club would have let me ruff in one hand . while sluffing a loser from the ’ other.” Mr. Champion started to sa' something, but Mr. Dale silenced
him with as dirty as a look as I ever saw-. Ignoring Mr Abel’s analysis of the hand, the old boy remarked, “You know, I think my hand was a little weak for a free raise of your hearts.” This I consider a "winning" remark. And results on the subsequent hands of the rubber proved it to be an excellent investment.

HUNGARIAN REFUGEES MAY BE SETTLED SOON CAMP KILMER, N. J. (UP) — An official expressed hope Friday night that the 21,500 homeless Hungarians President Eisenhower has ordered admitted to the United States will be resettled by Jan. 22. Leo Beebe, assistant refugee coordinator, said the refugees can be relocated by late January if the “current maximum rate of output of 500 daily” is processed through the Camp Kilmer reception center. He said 4,281 refugees already have been processed and sent to new homes throughout the nation. Another 3,822, are still here awaiting re-disposition. Vice President Richard M. Nixcn is scheduled to inspect this installation after his return from Austria next week.
