2 Th* Daily Banner, Greancastre, Indiana Saturday, February 13, 1965 Editorial-Wise Mo Predictions On Viet Ham No one likes to make predictions on world crisis because they are generally proven wrong. Perhaps the more controversial, and topsy-turvey siutation now going on is Viet Nam. The United States has been hampered in every move it makes by the power hungry Viet generals, who, with their ambitions, have fought among themselves to see who would scoop the most cream off the top of the U. S. milk pail. And they are hurried, for evidence leads people to believe that the Viet political bosses are under the misunderstanding that the communists will eventually take over. They want to be able to escape the country and live in exile on the wealth they are now accumulating. The United States is powerless to prevent this from happening without actually taking over control of the country and beginning a total all out war which could make Korea seem like a snowball fight. All the American generals can do is wait until one of the Viet military leaders can calm down the Buddhists, who seen to think their religious power should be dominant in the war, and hold on to the top seat in the government. While the American “advisers" give their lives in a needless blood bath the Vietnamese generals will continue to squabble and send their troops to fight conventional battles with an unconventional enemy. Any what of the Vietnamese people? What is their role in the fight? They are continuing to live an existance that their forefathers lived generations ago and there is no indication that this existance will change. They only want to be able to continue to eke out a living in the rice paddys and jungles. But they know fear. Fear of the silent Viet Cong who can mingle among them to coerce and threaten the populace with unknown terrors. To the Vietnamese, national pride is a word and Viet Cong threats much too real. They are also confused and a confused nation is ripe for communist propaganda and take-over. The almost impossible task that faces the United States is the untanglement of confusion, the establishment of a stable Vietnamese government and a continued effort to halt the communist tide. It takes time and there is so little of it left.

VALENTINES At some where near the age of ten, Quite shy, with blushing face, He gives to her a valentine, Of red hearts and paper lace. Then in his teens he goes on dates, He is quite the sly young

fox,

Her valentine is candy

now,

In a fancy heart-shaped

box.

Then when he is twenty-plus, And to manhood has grown, , Her valentine is a diamond ring, And he makes her his own. A year or two, a baby

girl,

And then a baby brother,, Valentines seem unimportant now, With one thing and another. Time rolls along, as time will do, A grandchild on his knee, She has brought her valentine to show, She wants grandpa to

see.

“Oh, Grandpa look,” she says to him, “The valentine I got today.” Grandpa says, “Hey, what’s

this?

Valentines, what are they?"

Sheinwold On Bridge Best Play Develops Declarer’s Long Suit By Alfred Sheinwold National Men’s Team Champion When your partner opens with one notrump you can bid two clubs, the S layman Convention, to find out whether or not you have a fit in a major suit. If the opener has a major suit, he bids it; otherwise he bids two diamonds. South dealer Both sides vulnerable NORTH A 6542 Q10 5 O A 10 8 3 A K9 WEST EAST A K 10 8 3 A 19 9? A83 J 7 642 0 1542 O Q 9 A Q7 A J 864 SOUTH A A Q7 V K 9 O K76 A A 10 5 3 2 South West North East 1 NT Pass 2 A Pass 2 0 Pass 3 NT All Pas Opening lead — 4 3 North wanted to get to four spades if South happened to have a four-card spade suit. When South indicated that he had no major suit, North went in notrump. The contract was a slight stretch because North had only 9 points in high cards, and South had only the minimum count of 16 points. The total was one point short of the 26 points usually needed for game, but South scrambled home with a nine, a ten, and a bit of luck. The opening lead gave South a free finesse in spades, but declarer was still far from home. He had to develop the clubs as quickly as possible. CORRECT FINESSE South made the correct play, leading a low club from his hand and finesing with dummy’s nine. This drove out the jack, and South later captured the queen of clubs and could run the rest of the suit from the South hand. Any method would work if the six mising clubs were divided 3-3, and nothing would The correct play would limit

the club loss to one trick if West had Q-x, J-x, or Q-J-x-x. When the clubs proved good for four ttricks South had an easy time. He could develop one heart trick to reach a total of nine tricks. In the meantime the defenders could take noly two spades, one heart, and one club. DAILY QUESTION Partner opens with 1 NT, and the next player passes. You hold: Spade J 9, Heart J 7 6J 4 2. Diamond Q 9, Club J 8 6 4. iWhat do you say? Answer: Pass. Since you have only 5 points in high cards, the partnership total must be 21 to 23 points, which is not enough for game. You have a little strength in each suit and have no reason to fear a notrump contract.

-Education rapidly developing—is but a means to an end, the educatorjournalist stressed. What we must do is to try to find “that which is lasting and consistent” . . . and draw from it “concepts of precision, discipline and ability to make judgements of integrity.”

T l >e beauty of it, of course, goes deeper thaa the things you don’t get. There’s the other side of the coin—what you do get in their place. Take *he no window post, for example. What yvu do get is hardtop styling— with curbed frameless side windows—in every Corvair closed model. The transmission and driveline hump you don’t get means more foot room. Thanks to Corvair’s rear engine, the floor is practically flat. No radiator—the engine’s air-cooled —also means no water, no antifreeze and no hose leaks to worry about. All

of which add up to some more important pluses. Power steering? Power brakes? Corvair needs them like a centipede needs crutches. With most of the engine weight on the rear wheels, the front ones are free to steer easily. And stops are quick and sure —with no nosediving.
