Use General Principle When Playing Key Suit By Alfred Sheinwold When you can see only your own hand and the dummy you must often base your play on the probable location of the missing cards. This was the key to success when today’s hand wa~ dealt during the Team Trials last November in San Francisco. North dealer Both sides vulnerable Norm A 15

West led the ace of hearts and a heart to dummy’s king. Now South’s problem was to limit the trump loss to two

tricks.

To solve such a problem, consider all possible distributions of the Twigging five trumps and then make the play that succeeds most often. No guarantee goes with this play, but at least you will have probability in your favor. Six of the most famous ex perts In the world played this hand, and three of them led dummy’s low spade to the king at the second trick. This inferior play lost three trump tricks and the contract. One expert led a club to his hand and returned to low trump to dummy’s jack. This was better, hut not good enough. BETS PLAY Only two experts, Norman Kay and Tobias Stone, made the best play. They led the jack of spades from dummy at the second trick, planning to finesse through East for the queen first and for the ten later if neces-

sary.

This play works when West has any singleton except the queen; in 18 of the 20 cases in which West has either two or three trumps; and also when East has the singleton ten or queen. No other method works in nearly as many cases (except for leading dummy’s low trump to the nine first, which is almost as good). A general principle will guide you to the correct play whenever you can afford to lose two tricks in a key suit. Take a deep finesse first; you can later make your mind up as to whether or not to play to the king. DAILY QUESTION As dealer, you hold: S-K 9 8 7 6 2 H-7 5 D-7 C-A K 8 4. What do you say? ANSWER: Bid one spade. Tou have 10 points in high cards and should count about 3 points for distribution. This is enough for an aptional opening bid, and you decided in favor of the bid because you have a 6card major suit.

Vietnamese Will Nlmk Mew Year SAIGON UPI — U.S. forces in Viet Nam will join South Viet Nam government troops in observing a three-day cease fire during Tet, the Chinese Lunar New Year which begins Jan. 19, a U.S. Embassy spokesman announced today. The Viet Cong previously said in a radio broadcast that Communist troops planned a fourday truce during the New Year holiday. The American spokesman said the 190,000 American soldiers in South Viet Nam “will certainly go along with the Vietnamese.” The government - run news agency, Viet Nam Press, earlier in the day quoted armed forces chief of staff LL Gen. Cao Van Vien as saying South Vietnamese forces would be ordered to hold their fire during most of the holiday period — three days at least.

"Come along and join the party. Come along and have some fun. Come along and don’t be tardy, We’ll have fun for everyone.” So the invitations for the first meeting of the new year read, and they meant just that. The entertainment committee, Larry and Sharon Ensor, Wayne and Paula Marks and Tom and Donna Gibson, met with the vice president, Hershel Skinner, and his wife, Lillian, at their home a couple of weeks earlier and made plans for the first three month’s activities. The first activity was held at the Fair Grounds Community Building Jan. 8. More than seventy-five adults were present and a third as many children. The business meeting was held first, as an important decision was to be made. For some time the Club has been looking for an acreage suitable for Club Grounds. Many things frari to be considered, as membership covers not only this county but surrounding counties also. It should be on or near a good road, with woods and a creek and with enough level space for a club house and arena, and plenty of space for riding. The directors had agreed on a tract that seemed to fill our need. Most of the members had been to see it and to ride over the ground. The majority

voted to buy.

As this would take the funds the group has amassed through the years, and more would be needed, methods of raising more were discussed and agreed upon. A correction on the last report—Don Winings was named as one of the directors — this should have been Cecil Robertson. Don was retiring. ( An invitation from the Route 40 Club to attend their meeting Thursday, Jan. 13, was read. The entertainment for the evening was to be a surprise, and a hilarious one it was, with contests and stunts that had everyone laughing. How many men can cut a length of string to their wife’s exact waist measure? Out of the dozens of couples, five men succeeded — Shelly, Walls, C. Jordan, Higgens and M. Williams. To break the tie, the contest was reversed

and their wives didn’t do as welL Bob and Linda Walls were winners. Another husband and wife contest was the ’plumber’s friend,’ very difficult for most, but BiU and Clemma Perkins and Rue and Margaret McCullough were Successful. Two other games with the group divided into teams provided a lot

of merriment. All were ready to relax with a cup of coffee or tea, the various good eats that a pound party brings, and the usual visiting, with some playing Aggravation or Euchre. An old fashioned box supper is planned for the February meeting. Everyone be on the lookout for the mystery guest. The first to shake his or her hand wins a prize. Come and join the fun.

Spear A Staff Inc. says it sees no reason to change its established market policy of purchasing shares in strong earnings situations with a good story.

The Alexander Hamilton Institute says market irregularity is likely to continue over the near term, much depending on Viet Nam develoments and the new administration budget.

Issues Orders To Penal Heads INDIANAPOLIS UPI — Indiana Commissioner of Correction Bernard Dolnick, saying he feels there is “too much emphasis on custody and not enough on treatment of law violators, Wednesday issued orders ending corporal punishment of prisoners and abandonment in "the hole” at Indiana’s seven penal institutions. Dolnick also asked for the "complete cooperation of all employes” in the penal and correctional institutions in three memoranda to wardens and superintendents around the state. The first directive ordered an end to corporal punishment, which Dolnick defined“as any

form of striking at an Inmate, including both direct and indirect contact The above definition is not necessarily to be Interpreted as all-inclusive. A fol-low-up definition will be formulated in the very near future.” He said he had asked the wardens and superintendents at the institutions to suggest ways of implementing and refining the order, adding his final decision would be based on information they send him.
