recently. ’•Give,” I replied. Sam is one of the greatest players in the world and can be counted upon to know a good hand when he sees one. ‘ My partner. West, opened me king of hearts,” Sam related. ‘‘I followed suit with the five of hearts, hoping that this would encourage him to continue.” This was, of course, the beginning of a high-low. The play of an unnecessarily high card asks ! partner to continue the suit. “The trouble was, "Sam went on, “that my five of hearts wasn't a very high card. My partner couldn't be sure that I was beginning a signal. I had bid diamonds, after all, not hearts. So he switched to the deuce of diamonds." This was just what Sam didn’t want. Evidently, We»t had started with three diamonds, which meant that South had the single-
ton ace of diamonds. The problem was to steer West away from diamonds and back onto the right track. DELIBERATE RECEPTION* “So I lied to him,” Stayman said. “ played the k:n? r of diamonds instead of the jack!” In this situation, an expert tries to drive out the ace as cheaply aw possible. With K-Q-J, he plays the jack; with K-Q-x, he plays the queen. To play the king, therefore, “denies” the queen. Stayman deliberately created the impression that South held the queen of diamonds. South drew trumps with the ace and king and then finessed the jack of clubs. West, convinced that the diamonds were hopeless, switched back to hearts. This defeated the contract. "A very nice hand,” I told Stayman, “but if my readers complain that their partners are
deceiving them right and left, you’ll have to answer all their letters!” DAILY QUESTION Partner bids one spade, and the next player passes. You hold: S—K 10 6 4 3 H—2 D—7 fi C—10 9 8 7. What do you say? Answer: Bid four tipadcs. Tie triple raise shows about five trumps and a singleton <or i void), with not more t’: n 9 points in high cards.

The change from b^by doll to "doll” startled St. Louis manufacturer Bert Hecht and his wife, Ruth, but they insist it was at the rquest of the young customers. "Today's 4-ycar-old girl is as mature as the 6-year-old a lew jears ago,” Hecht said. "She still plays with dolls. But she has one eye on television and she wants her doll to look like the women she sees there.” An even greater change has taken place among the 13-ycar-olds, he added. “That young lady is more apt to be going out on dates than playing with dolls," he said. "And if she does have a doll, you can

President Urged to Set Up Unified ‘Missile Command’
I Scientists, Some of Military
Irked by Inter-Service Tiff By HENRY CATHCART
Central Press Washington Writer YTTASHINGTON—President Eisenhower is being urged by top W scientists and some military men to set up a unified “Missile Command” as one w*i to end inter-service rivalry in the superweapons program. Advocates of the idea argue that the best brains of the Army, Navy and Air Force—now scattered among the respective missile projects of the three services—could be assembled under one boss in such a command. The proponents contend that the Missile Command should have a separate budget, and that it should operate independently of Army, Navy
and Air Force appropriations.
Both military and civilian scientific genius would be made available to the group, according to the suggestions being placed before the President. and its commander would be given absolute freedom from Pentagon red tape. The idea, as is to be expected, has encountered strong opposition from old-line generals and adf\ A nurals. who are understandably reluctant to see t ! . S ^ their traditional areas of power diminished. President Nevertheless, some influential figures in the Eisenhower administration reportedly are pressing Mr. Eisenhower to give favorable consideration to the plan.

• NO CHANGE—Defense Secretary Neil McElroy’s order for launching an Army satellite with a Jupiter-C missile actually was e reversal of ex-Secretary Charles E. Wilson’s move limiting the Armv to missiles traveling less than 200 miles. However, sources in the Pentagon said that nothing is expected to be done about Col. John C. Nickerson, who staged a bitter fight against Wilson's order. Nickerson was co-ordinator for the Army ballistic agency and he fought unsuccessfully to keep the Army working on long-range missiles. The fight broke out into the open and finally resulted in Nickerson's court-martial in a sensational case earlier this year. The colonel was taken from his missiles post and made a maintenance engineer in Panama. While he finally has won somewhat of a victory through McElroy's order. Nickerson will still be staying in Panama where he has nothing to do with the missiles program.

• STEVENSON'S IRE—Friends of Adlai Stevenson say that he is “burned up" at Presidential News Secretary James C. Hagerty for the recent White House snafu in announcing his role as a foreign
policy consultant to the administration.
Stevenson is said to feel that Hagerty might have committed more than just an honest “mistake in first announcing that t.,e
Democratic presidential nominee had turned down
the offer from President Eisenhower.
It was pointed out by Stevenson's associates that Hagerty corrected his “mistake' - only after the Democratic leader had issued a statement taking sharp issue with the White House aide's version.
In the meantime. Stevenson's friends point out. the former Illinois governor was placed in an unfavorable public light by being shown
as a man who had blocked bi-partisan consultation.
Stevenson’s aides say that he made a clear distinction between serving as a consultant and in drafting policy for the administration because he wants to be free to criticize the policy decisions when
