fair to keep your eyes open and draw inferences from the way t the opponents act. When West led the seven of spades South played low from the dummy, hoping to win with the jack. East won with the queen and returned a spade. Declarer took the third spade with dummy’s ace, got to his hand with a diamond and tried the heart finesse. He was home if he could get three hearts. The heart finesse lost, and back came a club. South had to try the club finesse as his last hope, but this lost also and he w a s down two. As dummies will, North observed that declarer makes the contract if he takes the first trick with the ace of spades. The club finesse then loses, but the opponents cannot take their spades and South gets nine tricks. SPOUTS FIGURES South proceedeto spout figures. He conceded ods of 2 to 1 that the lead was from K-10 or Q-10 rather than from K-Q of spades. But if South played low' at the first trick he would make the contract not only if West had led from the K-Q but also if he could win a finesse in hearts or clubs. All factors considered, South concluded, his line of play was as good as the other. South’s figures were good, but his psychology w r as poor. When the opening leader’s best suit is headed by K-10-8-7 or by Q-10-8-7 he has no problem

about leading the seven. But when his long suit is headed by K-Q-8-7 he considers leading the king, and decides to lead the seven only after some hesitation. In this case West had led without the slightest problem. No mater what mathematics said, it was improbable as a matter of psychology that West had led from a suit headed by K-Q. South should therefore win the first trick in dummy with the ace of spades and proceed to make the contract. DAILY QUESTION You open with one diamond, and partner bids one spade.

Fast Answer WASHINGTON UPI — Senate GOP Leader Everett M. Dirksen, HI., may have just emerged from a nine-day stay in the hospital, but he proved Tuesday he can still turn a quip with the best of them. In a session with newsmen during his first day back on the job, the senator lived up to his reputation as a ready men with an answer. Asked why he had not stayed in the hospital longer, he grinned and replied, “who’s going to save the world?”
gram probably will cross party lines. Some administration spokesmen say it could be the most controversial bill of its kind in history; others contend it will pass easily.
Proposes Pay Hike For Vets WASHINGTON UPI — Rep. Winfield K. Denton, D-Ind., has proposed an increase in the compensation payments to veterans with service-connected disabilities. The last increase, approved in 1962, does not reflect the increase in the cost of living which has occurred in the intervening years, he said. Denton said his bill was proposed by the veterans of World War organization but would apply to all disabled veterans. He said there was no general across-the-board increase, but the measure appeared to provide for raises in the compensation payments of about 8 per cent.
High And Low NEW YORK UPI — The lowest temperature reported this morning to the U. S. Weather Bureau, excluding Alaska and Hawaii, was 15 below zero at Craig, Colo. The highest reported Tuesday was 85 at Clewiston and West Palm Beach, Fla.
AMERICANS ON MOVE NEW YORK UPI — Fortyone million Americans will move this year, according to housing authorities at Allied Chemical’s Barrett Division. Of these 25 per cent will move more than 100 miles.
Havoc Results In Fiery Blast CAPE KENNEDY UPI — Damage survey teams were
scheduled to Inspect a debrislittered launch pad today to assess the havoc resulting from a fiery explosion of an Atlas-
Centaur moon rocket.
The high-powered rocket lost power from two of its three engines two seconds after liftoff Tuesday and crashed back to the launch pad creating a
200-feet high fireball.
Engineers were prevented from inspecting the pad Tues-, day because of the danger posed by live explosives in the area i Early reports said damage was extensive but appeared to be the result of the tremendous fire rather than the blast itself, j The immediate fate of America’s plans to land a Project Surveyer robot on the moon this fall as planned depends on the extent of damage and the
time needed to repair it.
The pad was the only one able to launch the $12 million Atlas Centaur although an

Has Something For Everyone WASHINGTON UPI —President Johnson’s major new housing and urban affairs program seems to have something in it for everyone. But it is still not quite inclusive enough to erase all conflict. The plan was outlined in a special message to Congress Tuesday. It would establish a new cabinet-level department of housing and urban development and provide massive new federal aid for low and middle income groups. Included were programs for “satellite” towns, emphasis on the paint brush not the bulldozer and a new departure in this field, rent supplements to provide decent housing for half a million needy families. “The problems of the city are ... in large measure, the problems of American society itself,” Johnson said, noting that 40 years from now 320 million Americans will be living in cities and suburbs, twice as many as now.

Sullivnn Boys' Father Is Dead WATERLOO, Iowa UPI—In 1941, the five Sullivan boys enlisted in the U.S. Navy on the safe day with the stipulation that they would serve their country together on the same ship. A year later, they went to their death together when the Japanese sank the U.S. cruiser Juneau in the Pacific. The Navy said the boys’ parents, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Sullivan, had received “the heaviest blow suffered by a single family in American naval history.” Today, Mrs. Aletta Sullivan had to relive those tragic war memories alone. Her husband, the father of the five “Fighting Sullivans,” was dead from a heart ailment. Sullivan died at St. Francis Hosptial here Monday at the age of 82. The Sullivans shot to tragic national prominence in 1942 when their boys—George, 29, Francis, 26, Joseph, 23, Madison, 22,\ and Albert, 20—went down with the Juneau.

Demo Deserts Party On Vote INDIANAPOLIS UPI — Sen. Eugene Bainbridge, D-Munster, was the only member of the Democratic majority to desert his party on all three votes Tuesday as the Indiana Senate approved the three budget bills. The other Democrats, Nelson Grills and Hugh Miles, Indianapolis, joined Bainbridge and 14 minority Republicans in voting against the big operating budget which was approved by a 29-17 vote. No Republicans broke party ranks. Bainbridge and Grills again joined the Republicans in the 29-16 vote on the construction budget while Miles voted for
that bill.
The highway budget was approved 39-6 with Bainbridge and Republicans Keith Fraser of Portland, A. Morris Hall of Marion, Earl Landgrebe of Valparaiso, Wilbur Newlin of Mooresville casting the dissent-
ing votes.
Senators who did not vote on any of the bills were Democrats William Christy of Hammond, Charles Schenk of Vincennes and Donald Yeagley of South Bend and Republican Galen Cloclesser of Huntington. Democrat Leonard Opperman of South Bend voted for the operating budget but did not vote on the other two.
TWTASHINGTON—Some Washington officials are becoming a W little more optimistic about the outlook in Viet Nam. Particularly, they’re encouraged by the lack of specific threats from Russia and Red China concerning open intervention on the side of the North Vietnamese. There are glimmerings of hope that these two Red powers “got the message” of the retaliatory strikes of late January and February. You can even get some unofficial comment looking toward a return to “normalcy” in the civil war this
spring.
No one in Washington pretends to have any inside information on overall Communist intentions there. In particular, all of the intelligence work practicable has provided no hint of what the two major Red powers have really commited themselves to. Their closelyheld governments and their completely controlled press make for an ideal secrecy-keep-
ing setup.
Policy-making officials in Washington have been closely studying the Red Chinese pattern of aggression in the Korean fighting. Thej sent their “volunteers” in only when the North
Koreans were threatened with imminent defeat. This is not the situation in North Viet Nam at this time; in fact, the contrary is txue. The Communist guerrillas seem to be gaining in
the long, grueling struggle.
One factor keeps recurring in U. S. intelligence estimates of Communist intentions. Asia remains an extremely backward part of the world. Food is absolutely essential to military successes. There is considered to be a great likelihood that, if the Reds’ intention is to intervene in the struggle, they won’t do sc until this year’s crops are in. That means any real crisis probably will be postponed until late this autumn, at the earliest

• PRODUCT PLUGGING — Most legislators are constantly searching for ways to promote the products made in their home districts, but it remained for^freshman Congressman George W. Grider, Tennessee Democrat to have an opportunity dropped in his lap. Grider, shortly after arriving in Washington, went to a wellknown studio for a portrait picture. He happened to be wearing a short-sleeved shirt at the time and the professional in charge of the operation felt that a formal portrait of a congressman should have a bit of cuff showing below the
jacket sleeve.
Undaunted by the problem, the photographer got hold of some handy paper tissue sheets and fashioned makeshift cuffs that looked for all the
word like the real thing.
Now some men in public life would say nothing about such an improvisation, but it was music to Grider’s political ears. You see, there is a huge paper tissue-making plant in his district.

OUR daughter is 15 years old. She is a sophomore in high school. The inevitable problem of smoking has just arisen. She says that “all the girls” smoke and that she wants to be one of the crowd. She further points to the fact that we. her parents, smoke. She insists that she only smokes three or four cigarettes a day and that she can stop any time she wants
to.
We are sure that this is a Dr. Coleman problem shared by many parents who would welcome any suggestions you might have for handling it Mr. and Mrs. M. S., Maryland Dear Mr. and Mrs. S.: Yours is truly a universal problem. All adults and most adolescents must, by now, be aware of the disadvantages to health attributc4p%o smoking. The habit patterns of smoking are so deeply ingrained in adults that many people find it difficult or almost impossible to give up the habit It is this very struggle ... the difficulty that confronts thousands of adults who would happily give up smoking . . . that should be emphasized to children. When your daughter uses her parents’ smoking as justification for her own right to smoke, she should be told frankly that it is precisely because the habit is so difficult to break that you want to spare her this painful experience when she herself decides ultimately to try ta break the smoking habit. Your daughter’s statement that she wants to be one of the crowd is tbs key to the prob-
lem of adolescent smoking. Smoking has become a status symbol of the immature adolescent. To many of these children, “lighting up” means the difference between being “in the groove” or just a “square.” It is strange that as they grow older it is the non-smoker who becomes the symbol of maturity and who earns the respect (and secret envy) of his
peers.
When young people pass through the period of “to be or not to be” a smoker and emerge as a non-smoker, they are grateful that they have resisted the temptation. Parents tend to fall into a trap when they say to their children, “If you’re going to smoke behind our backs, we’d rather you smoke in the open.” Too often this attitude is an excuse for the inability of parents to exercise their mature judgment and say simply, “You do not have our permission to smoke, neither in our presence nor behind our backs.” The protection of the health of children is one of the great obligations of parents. Their health must not be sacrificed because parents are afraid to establish limits for their chil-
dren.
Public health officials, doctors, teachers and school administrators are concentrating on keeping the young adolescent from beginning the inevitable smoking habit. In this way, the chronic respiratory illnesses so devastating to the health of our nation can once more be reduced to a minimum. While Dr. Coleman cannot undertake to answer individual letters, he will use readers? questions in his column when* ever possible and when they are of general interest. Address your letters to Dr. Coleman in care of this newspaper.
