Carolyn Nichols I-> C'luli Hostess The Jefferson Belles Young Homemakers Club met Monday evening, March 2nd, in the home of Carolyn Nichols. Two new members, Jackie Crock and Martha Cooper, were welcomed into the club. The enrollment is now seventeen members. The membership limit is set at twenty. Maxine McCammack and Alice Hacker gave their final session on Easy Entertaining. It was pointed out that being a good guest was just as important as being a good hostess. To be a good guest remember to be on time, enter into the activities, compliment your hostess, and say your ‘‘thank yon’s” to the host and hostess alike. And keep in mind that “ettiquette is to do and say the kindest thing in the kindest way.” The girls cleverly demonstrated how easy it was to decorate individual servings of unfrosted cake with Dream Whip, topped with fruit, nuts, etc. They also sliced a delicious loaf of banananut bread and proceeded to spread the slices with butter and cream cheese. After the lesson the cake and bread were served to fifteen club members and two children. An exciting highlight during the evening was a planter sale. Each member brought a plant from home to be auctioned off by closed bids, the proceeds to be placed in the club treasury. This was an inexpensive way to obtain new house plants. Betty Cline received a stepstool from her secret sister for her wedding anniversary. For her birthday Alice Hacker received a plastic cut crystal waste basket from her secret sister. A smocked pillow made of green taffeta was proudly received by Pat Dorsett. Games played during the social hour were won by Alice Hacker and Oressa Bright. The thought for the month of March is “No matter how low in value the dollar may eventually fall, it will never fall as low as some people will stoop to get it.”

—GOOD OLD DAYS provide shelter. Always, too, there are springs or streams to furnish the small amount of water the hobos required for their bath or cuisine.

Greensburg Will Have Thermometer GREENSBURG, Ind. UPI — Greensburg today, in effect, banished official weather observer John Harmon to a Hoosier “Siberia'’ three miles southwest of the city. The city council’s vote to buy a thermometer for installation at the municipal waterworks was an effort to change Greenburg's image from the "icebox of Indi-

ana”

For years, Harmon's government thermometer at his rural home has chalked up temperatures much colder than neighboring cities. The climax came in 1951 when, on Groundhog Day, Harmon’s equipment showed 35 degrees below zero, the lowest ever recorded officially anywhere in Indiana. When a new city administration took over Jan. 1, one of the first matters brought up was what to do about the icy image which it was feared gave Greensburg “bad publicity” that might discourage new industrial plants from locating here. Councilman Alden Westhafer launched the campaign to do something about the thermometer. Mayor Sherman G. Miers wrote the Department of Commerce asking authorization to move Harmon’s weather equipment into the city because it is presently located in a “large sau-cer-like depression” where it is colder than elsewhere. However, Miers was turned down on grounds that Harmon, who is opposed to the change, has served faithfully without compensation for years and the official records do not carry the readings as Greensburg city but "Greensburg 3 SW" meaning three miles southwest of Greens-

burg.

diamonds immediately, South should have abandoned the suit. A jump from three hearts to five clubs would have placed the partnership in the best contract. South would have no problem at five clubs. He would give up two trump tricks and take the rest of the tricks without a

struggle.

South should have had no problem at diamonds, since there also it was correct to give up two clubs. Still, South found a way to go down—and it wasn’t hard.

Fails To Learn Russian Intent MOSCOW UPI — Commerce Undersecretary Clarence Martin failed today in initial efforts to determine whether Russia wants to buy more U.S. wheat than the 1.7 million tons it already has on order. Martin conferred for half an hour with First Deputy Premier Alexei Kosygin, but was unable to get any information. “We told Mr. Kosygin that we have wheat to sell,” Martin told a news conference, "but Mr. Kosygin didn't say anything.” Earlier, Martin had said he suspects the Russians “have completed their buying for the season.” Martin will talk with other Soviet officials before leaving for home last night.

have two trumps to return to his hand on giving up the club tricks. Actually, South led the deuce of clubs and ruffed in dummy. This was the beginning of a hopeless tangle which left him short of trumps to bring in the clubs. South had to ruff to return to his hand. After drawing trumps he had only one trump left, with two clubs still to be given up. When East got his first club trick he could return a spade of a heart to make South ruff, and then the South hand was dead. Blame South, if you like, for his play of the cards at diamonds. The fact remains that he couldn't possibly go wrong if he played the hand at clubs. DAILY QUESTION Partner opens with 1 NT (16 to 18 points), and the next player passes.
