Editorial-Wise Shades of Buck Rogers!

The cartoon strip of Buck Rogers and his adventures in space over past years is rapidly becoming a reality now that man has been able to orbit the earth. Trips to the moon and some of the planets are now on the planning boards of American scientists for the not too

distant future. A

The longest and most daring space flight yet attempted by the United States is scheduled for April weather conditions permitting. Astronaut Gordon Cooper, holder of America’s space endurance record, and Lt. Charles Conrad have been chosen for the flight by the National Aeronautics and Space Ad-

ministration.

The first manned Gemini flight is scheduled for April this year, the second may be in June or July and the third could follow in September or October. If present plans hold. Cooper and Conrad will go into their orbit in the Gemini two-man space craft and make the first attempt at rendezvous and docking with a section ejected from their spacecraft. To do this, they would have to venture outside the spacecraft and would be the first astrotnauts to get outside the saftey of their ship.

I am taking this opportunity to express my thanks and appreciation to Dr. Dettloff, Dr. Johnson, and the entire hospital staff of nurses and nurses aides for the wonderful care given my beloved husband while in the hospital, before and at the time of his passing. To my many friends, neighbors and relatives, words can not express my appreciation for the sympathetic attention, the beautiful floral tributes, cards, letters, food and the many other courtesies shown at the time of my great loss, were all most appreciated. With equal sincerety, I wish to thank the Rector Funeral Home, the Rev. Harold McCammack, the organist, the singers, the pall bearers, and any and all who helped in any way for their kindness and understanding services rendered. May God bless each and every one of you.

South should bid two diamonds instead of two hearts at his second turn. If North has four hearts, he can bid two hearts: and if he ha« four diamonds, he can raise diamonds. Thus South can find out about both red suits with one bid. The actual bid of two hearts made it difficult for the parnership to reach the proper contract of five diamonds. Still, South should make four hearts by proper play. Ajs it happened, South played the hand badly. He won the first club in dummy and returned a heart to try a finesse with the queen. When West casually played a low trump. South got back to dummy with the king of diamonds, discarded a s pade or the ace of clubs and tried another heart finesse. TAKES KING This time West took the king. He returned a club, and South ruffed. Declarer cashed the ace of spades and ruffed a spade in dummy to try a finesse with the jack of diamonds, but West won and led another club to punch out South’s last trump. When the smoke cleared, South was down two. It was foolish to draw trumps with so weak a suit. Declarer should cash his high cards and crossruff. He begins with the top clubs, takes the ace of spades and ruffs a spade in dummy. He cashes the top diamonds, ruffs a club in his hand, ruffs another spade in dummy, and ruffs another club in his hand. This brings in nine tricks, with the ace of trumps still in his hand to assure the contract. If the defense slips, South will make an overtrick. DAILY QUESTION As dealer, you hold: Spade 5, Heart 9 8 4, Diamond K 9 8 3, Club A K 7 4 2. What do you say? Answer: Pass. Most experts believe in passing this kind of borderline hand with strength only in the minor suits; many of them would open the hand if the long suit were spades instead of clubs.
