LETTER

Expert Reaches Heaven In National Tournament By Alfred Sheinwold A bridge player’* notion of Heaven is to play a grand slam to the sound of trumpets. If the trumpets are not to be •had. the next best thing is to win a national championship with the slam, as Arnold Kauder did with the hand shown today. South dealer North-South vulnerable NORTH * Q10 J 10 9 O A 10832 4 762 WEST EAST 4 763 4 98542 8 72 4 O None O J9J4 4 A J 109843 4 KQ5 SOUTH 4 AKJ V AKQ653 O KQ76 4 None Snath Wart North East 2<? 54 50 64 7 4 Pass 7 AH Past Opening lead — 4 A West tried to jam the NorthSouth communications with a jump to five clubs but the plot failed. North boldly ventured to five diamonds, and Kauder’s bid of seven clubs asked North to bid a grand slam in either hearts or diamonds. Hearts was, of course, a very wise choice. Kauder ruffed the opening club lead, led a trump to the nine, ruffed a club with a high trump and led a trump to dummy’s ten to ruff dummy’s last club. He then drew West’s last trump.

The point of these maneuvers was to find out which opponent might conceivably hold all of the missing diamonds. GETS COUNT Kauder discovered that West had started with six or seven clubs and three trumps. Just to make sure, he led the ace of spades, finding that West followed suit. This accounted for at least ten of west’s thirteen cards, so that West could not possibly hold as many as four diamonds. To guard against East, Kauder next led a low diamond to dummy’s ace. West disdarded a club, and the secret was out Kauder returned a low diamond, and East put in the nine. Declarer won with the queen, returned the jack of spades to dummy’s queen and led another diamond. East’s J-5 were trapped by South’s K-7, and the grand slam was home. Kauder still hears trumps when he thinks of this hand! DAILY QUESTION Partner opens with two hearts (forcing to game) and the next player passes. You hold: S-7 6 S; H-8 7 2; D-None; C-A J 10 9 8 4 S. What do you say? Answer: Bid two notrump. Make a "negative” response first, and show the club length and heart support later. This hand will not be particularly good for partner if he happens to be void in dubs.

The Lighter Side

WASHINGTON UPI —Twas 120 nights before Christmas when the first mail order gift - catalog arrived at my house. You would think that Santa’s little helpers would at least have the decency to wait until Labor Day before ushering in the Yuletide shopping season. But no. They work on the theory that the time to strike is while the potential customers on their mailing lists are still weak from beat prostration. So, bowing to the inevitable, - I have been browning through! the early catalogs to bring you i * a sneak preview of the sort of - thing you will be finding in I your stocking four months

■ hence.

- What is 29 inches long, hangs _ ©n the wall, looks like a wrist * watch and tells yqu the temper-

- ature?

* Why, it is a “giant wristwatch - thermometer” that some of the i catalogs are featuring for only

" $6.95.

- Next year, presumably, they .'will offer a companion piece — "a wrist watch that looks like a -giant thermometer. I Are you one of those people who like a “light” beer? Well, if 1 -you're lucky someone will give you a self-illuminating beer mug to brighten your Christmas morning. J They cost $5.75 a pair and -are w r orth every drop of it. The ideal matching gift for light beer would be “heavy ice,”

-right?

Okay, for $6 someone can buy you a set of six metal balls. Put : them in an ice tray, cover with ! water and freeze. This adds! weight to the ice cubes so that they will sink to the bottom of the glass. The gift that I personally am breaming of is a “wild stallion” auto horn. Rather than honk, it whinnies. “Mounts easily under the

hood of any ear," tho catalog says, “really arwrafcma tho day-

dreamers/*

Tho catalog doao not aay, however, hoar you get rid of the mares that follqw you home. Christmas catalogs also include a few gifts that are suitable for birthdays. One that caught my eye was a box of “magic wick” candles. You put them on a birthday cake and immediately after the celebrant blows them out they start burning again. “Recommended for all who enjoy a hearty laugh,” the catalog says. It does sound like loads of fun, particularly If the celebrant keeps puffing until he turns blue in the face and has tq have oxygen to revive him. Merry Christmas, everyone.

To Whom it may concern: We the trustees of New Providence Cemtery, have in the past devoted labor and money toward the upkeep of the Cemetery, keep it mowed, building : fences, and many other things which needed to be done. It takes a great deal of money to care for the Cemetery, to buy | equipment, etc. In the past, it has been the policy of the ; trustees and the secretary to ; make up the difference, if ; money were not available. We assume full responsibility for the manner in which the Cemetery has been kept, and regret very much the feeling expressed by the people who put the article in the Banner on August 18, 1966. We thought we had made ourselves clear as to the policy concerning flowers on graves, since on April 13 and 14, we had put a notation in the Banner. However, to clarify matters, we would like to explain our policy again. Flowers may always be hung on iron posts next to the stone, or placed on the cement slab at each end of the stone. Flowers may be placed on graves one week before Memorial Day but should be removed from graves one week after New Providence exercises. Plercy Masten Glen Mark Gilbert Prichard Hubert A.

Calif., as a crewmember aboard the attack aircraft carrier, USS Ranger, after an eight and one-half month deployment In the Western Pacific with the Seventh Fleet. While operating off the coast of Viet Nam, the Ranger struck strategic sites in North Viet Nam, delivering nearly eleven thousand tons of ordnance on

| enemy positions.

The Ranger planned and exI ecuted the first strike against the Haiphong, Viet Nam petroj leum. oil, and lubricant storage facilities. This strike was said to have had severe damage to 1 the depot and despite the intensive ground fire encountered there was no damage to the attacking aircraft from the

Ranger.

Other missions from the Ranger, included strikes on railroads, bridges, highways and water traffic, seriously hampering the movement of war materials to the Viet Cong in South Viet Nam.
