steps up with the ace of diamonds and cashes the jack of clubs to discard dummy’s other diamond. WORTHLESS KING East can defeat the contract by stepping up with the king of clubs when the first club is led from the dummy. East must see that his king is worthless unless his partner has considerable club strength. As it turns out, the king of clubs wins the trick. East can shift immediately to a diamond

What do you say? Answer: Pass. You have It points in high cards and 2 points for the doubletons, but this 13point hand is not worth an opening. Your diamond strength is of doubleton value.

LEGALIZED off-track betting for New York City took a giant step toward realization when voters O.K.’d by a 3-to-l margin to set up a committee to study it. Three-to-one—those are mighty nice odds, at the track, away from it or what have you! ! ! ! It’s been suggested, that a chain of N. Y. movie Houses be converted to betting parlors, showing race results via television. That’s quite a jump— from horse operas to horse operations.

ARCTIC CIRCLE KOMRADELINESS—A Soviet long-range reconnaissance plane (upper) and a U. S. F-102 jet fighter fly in chummy close range in the Arctic Circle, and, of course, there’s a third plane close by (where else would the photo come from?). They like to nose around and see what each other is doing. This is in the Greenland area.

With the Mississippi channels, banks and levees cleared most of the way of resistant forces, flagboat and sidewheeler traffic moved freely [f], if under Union flag or controL a* OTQ At 016 beginning of 1864, the Savannah Republican listed the market price of flour at $120 a barrel, of hominy grits at $16 a bushel, when you could find either in supply at established dealers who had to pay some attention to Confederate government attempts to curtail speculation and profiteering in commodities. The going prices in black markets w’ere higher. The prices anywhere reflected the decline in the purchasing power of Confederate currency, as well as the diminishing supplies of foodstuffs reaching the Rebel armies and the city dwellers as a result of the U. S. naval blockade of the Atlantia coast, the capture of most of the Mississippi River by Union forces, and the systematic

closing of key railways within the Confederacy. The process of beating down the Rebel means of resistance by attrition was made more stringent steadily by detached striking forces such as referred to here previously. The Confederate Congress had sought to Insure bacon and ham for the soldiers by requiring that a tax on smoked pork be paid in kind. At the end of 1863, the Congress had to modify this requirement realistically by allowing the tax to be paid in salt pork. Farmers with hogs hidden away could no longer take the time to smoke-cure slaughtered meat, to risk having smokehouses filled with bacon and hams for Yankee raiders. Same day the Confederate Congress took this action, it ended exemption from military draft given those who supplied a substitute (usually by purchase). —clakk kixnaird

Declarer leads a trump to dummy’s nine and returns a low club. South would play the queen, and West would win with the ace of clubs. West cannot afford to lead diamonds, since that would give declarer a free finesse. Hence West leads another spade. South ruffs and leads another trump to dummy.
