Ruff With Low Trump To Prevent Discard By Alfre4 BheteweM When declarer U trying to discard a loser you can often spike his guns by ruffing the trick on which he plans to discard. Even if this seems to cost you a trump trick, it may still be the right play. North dealer

South could not save himself by discarding the nine of dubs when East ruffed the third heart. East would immediately shift to a diamond. West would get in with the king of diamonds in time to lead a heart, and East would get a ruffing trick with the jack of spades. The defenders would then get three trump tricks and a diamond. DAILY QUESTION’ . As dealer, you hold: S-10 7 0 5 3 H-A J D-A Q J 9 C-9 4. What do you say? ANSWER: Bid one spade. The suit is very weak, but the hand as a whole is worth an opening bid. You have 12 points in high cards and 2 points for the doubleton, enough for a sound opening bid.

Lord Nelson's Statue Bombed DUBLIN UPI — Irish extremists blasted the statue of British naval hero Lord Nelson off the top of its 121-foot tower column in the heart of Dublin today and sent police racing to another British monument on a tip that it would also be bombed. An ear-shattering explosion ripped across the sleeping city shortly before 2 a. m., and sent the Nelson memorial—a symbol of British oppression to many Irishmen—crashing down amid hundreds of tons of masonry. The explosion shattered show windows, twisted traffic lights on O’Connell street — Dublin’s main thoroughfare where the 1916 rebellion was fought—and bent iron pedestrian railings along the sidewalk. No one was injured in the blast. Shortly after the explosion— believed set off by an expertly rigged time bomb—police rushed to another memorial to a

British hero — the Wellington monument in Phoenix Park—on a tip that it too would be bombed. The daring assault on the Nelson monument was believed the work of the outlawed Irish Republican Army (IRA) in advance of the 50th anniversary April 11 of the 1916 Easter Monday uprising that led eventually to the independence of Catholic Southern Ireland from Britain.

Says Food Can Head OH Wars WASHINGTON UPI—Secretary of State Dean Rusk told Congress Monday the nation’s proposed “food for freedom”

program could head off wan sparked by overpopulation and hunger. Appearing before the Senate Agriculture Committee, Rusk said it has been a long time since the need for food started a war, but population pressures in some countries might start one in the future. He said that unless there is a reversal of a “disturbing trend” in which food production is be-

By PHIL NEWSOM The army being willing, the Central American Republic of Guatemala is about to make another try at Democratic, constitutional government. In more than 125 years of independence, Guatemala has known precious little of either. In elections Sunday, the four million Guatemalans are scheduled to elect a president, a congress and local officials to re-

ginning to tag behind population growth, it "could become a serious obstacle to important foreign policy goals of the United States.” The program being considered would provide a five-year, |3.3 billion a year extension of the "Food for Peace” program —to be relabeled "Food for Freedom.” It would be aimed at helping countries increase their own food production.

place a military regime that overthrew President Miguel Ydigoras Fuentes in 1963. The new president is to take office July 1. A new constitution will go into effect May 5. Shadowing the outcome is a campaign being waged by a handful of Communist-led terrorists and a widely held suspicion that the army either will see to it that its own favored

candidate wins the election or will forcibly prevent any other from taking office. Three men contest the top office. Running with the unofficial support of the government Is Col Juan de Dios Aguilar, a rightist. Farther to the right is another army man. Col. Miguel Angel Poinciano, a former chief of staff of the armed forces who resigned to enter politics. To the left is Julio Cesar Mendez Montenegro, a former dean of San Carlos University law school. Mendez Montenegro is the candidate of the Revolutionary party, which is as far left as the law allows in Guatemala. He draws most of his support from agricultural and industrial workers and is regarded as a moderate despite the fact his party is heavily infiltrated by Communists. There is some doubt that the army will permit him to take office, even if he wins. He is a replacement for his brother, Mario, who was found shot to death last November. His family declares he was mur-

dered but the official verdiot was suicide. In the 1958 eleclions, Mario ran third in a fourman presidential race. In the Guatemalan elections, the United States has a triple stake. U. S. influence is said to have played an important roll in preventing a military coup last December aimed at cancelling this month’s voting. The United States recognized the current regime and extended aid on a promise of free elections by 1965. The U.S. has suggested to the government that it invite impartial observers to witness the election, insuring that it is fair and free. This suggestion the government has ignored. Back of this is a U.S. fear that a combination of terrorism and mounting unrest among the three-quarters of the Guatemalan population living at subsistence level could turn the country into a caldron of violence in the manner of the Dominican Republic. And finally the United States would like to reverse its record in Guatemala which has been among its most unsuccessful in Latin America.

Declarer took the first trick in dummy with the ace of clubs and took the act of hearts. He next overtook the jack of hearts with dummy’s queen and continued with the king of hearts. It East discarded. South! would get rid of the club and | make the contract without any: trouble. If East ruffed with the jack of spades. South would dis card the club and give up on other trump and a diamond trick. East adopted the correct defense when he ruffed the king of hearts with the nine of spades. South over-ruffed, and it seemed that East had broken even by giving up a trump trick to stop a club discard. Actually, East was still sure to get his two trump tricks; he had not given up a thing.

It’s a Supplement Plan to Medicare, a plan that fills most of the "gaps” in Medicare, provides needed additional hospital and physician benefits. And at a surprisingly low cost. Medicare was never meant to pay all the medical diarges—check the chart below to see what benefits it does provide, what you will have to pay, and what Blue Cross-Blue Shield will do to help complete your health care protection. Note that two benefit patterns are offered. Benefit I is a general complementary program to fill most of Medicare’s "gaps” at only $4.76 per month. Benefit II covers everything in Benefit I plus a Major Medical Supplement designed for protection against costs of a long, extended illness. It is just $6.52 per month. So, if you are signed up for Parts A & B of Medicare, you can now get the additional health care protection you need from Blue Cross-Blue Shield’s Medicare Supplement Plan.
