■Even Small Chance Beats None At All By Alfred Sheinwold if » As an experienced bridge player you must be ready with a moth-eaten collection of plots, traps and pitfalls. You may "never snare anybody, but if you make no effort at all you will surely go hungry. South dealer Both sides vulnerable NORTH i A Q 5 , V AQ8 O 87542 ♦ A J 5 WEST. EAST A 108762 4 KJ4 V 1054 763 2 109 O KJ6 4 Q 106 4 843 * SOUTH 4 A 9 3 V K J 9 O A Q3 4 K 9 7 2 South West North East I NT Pass 3 NT All Pass i Opening lead — 4 6 I West opened the six of spades, East covered the queen with the king, and South held off. East continued with the jack of spades and then with a third spade to South’s ace. South quite properly led the deuce of clubs to try a finesse with dummy’s jack. He then .continued with dummy’s ace of clubs. West was ready with an ancient wheeze: he dropped the queen of clubs on dummy’s ace. This cost nothing since the queen and ten were now of equal value. Moreover, the play told South nothing new since Ideclarer already knew the location of the queen of clubs.

States alone who go wrong every day of the week for just such monkey-shines. You might play against one of them some day. Notice that South cannot possibly go wrong if West drops the ten of clubs on dummy’s ace. Even one chance in a hundred of homswoggling an opponent is better than no chance at all. DAILY QUESTION Partner opens with 1 NT (16 to 18 points), and the next player passes. You hold: S-A 9 3; H-K J 9; D-A Q 3; C-K 9 7 2. What do you say? Answer: Bid 6 NT. Since you hold 17 points, the combined count is 33 to 35 points, enough for a small slam but not quite enough for a grand slam. When you are sure of the final contract, bid it without delay. If you start a complicated auction your partner may become confused and drop you in the wrong spot.

CHOICE OF PLAYS t * South wondered whether to » try the diamond finesse, play the king of clubs or try a finesse .with the nine of clubs. After 'much stewing South led a club -from dummy and tried a finesse "with the nine. West took the ten of clubs -and two more spades, defeating the contract * You would never fall for this, but there are forty-million bridge players in the United ——

Yucatan Hit By Hurricane MEXICO CITY UPI —Hurricane Inez raked plush tropical resort islands today and burst into Mexico’s defenseless Yucatan Peninsula with 110-mile-an-hour winds. Army troops shepherded thousands of terrified refugees inland as the storm pounded coastal areas. Officials feared Inez, which claimed more than 300 lives in its erratic maraud.ngs in the Caribbean, could cause severe flooding in the flat peninsula. The most recent advisory placed the storm near latitude 21.9 north and longitude 87.9 west or just off the coast of the peninsula about 125 miles northeast of Merida, the capital of Yucatan State. Inez was moving southwest to west-southwest at about 10 m.p.h. and its center was expected to move inland today just west of the tiny port of Rio Lagartos. The Yucatan Peninsula juts north from the southern tip of Mexico. In the northern part is populous Yucatan state on the Gulf of Mexico. To the east is the sparsely settled state of Quintana Roo and the resort islands in the Caribbean. Highest winds were estimated at 110 m.p.h. near the center with hurricane force winds over 74 m.p.h. within 50 miles of the center and gales extending about 200 miles to the northwest and 125 miles to the southeast. Hurricane winds were expected to rake much of the jungled peninsula—including the populous western bulge—during the day. Officials said Inez would weaken slowly after moving inland.

Foul Forecasts FELIXSTOE, England UPI —Atourist committee here was told that “perverse sadists” in the Meteorological Office like to forecast bad weather for seaside resorts. The group adopted a motion urging weathermen “to look on the brighter side” when there were doubts about coastal weather.

LONDON UPI — Robert Walton, 27, awoke to find that his apartment had been burglarized during the night. Among the stolen goods was his only pair of trousers. “I’ve only got my shirt left,” said Walton as he arrived at police headquarters in borrowed trousers.

Europe Topic Of LBJ Speech WASHINGTON UPI —President Johnson, preparing to embark on a 25,000-mile Asian odyssey unmatched in White House annals, turned aside for a time today to address himself to the problems of Europe. The Chief Executive, who announced detailed plans for his six-nation Far Eastern tour at a Thursday news conference, planned to fly to New York today for a major foreign policy speech on Europe before the National Conference of Editorial Writers. The scheduling of the European policy speech less than 24 hours after announcement of the Asian and Pacific trip seemed to be a deliberate effort on Johnson’s part to head off presistent criticism that he is preoccupied with Asia and the war to the exclusion of Europe. Meantime, White House Press Secretary Bill D. Moyers, Deputy Undersecretary of State William J. Crockett and a group of White House and State Department experts were flying across the Pacific to work out the complex logistics of the trip.

Reds Trapped By Ring Of Steel SAIGON UPI—U.S. and Allied troops tightened a ring of steel around a trapped Communist force on the central coast today and killed 91 more in fresh fighting. The broken and demoralized enemy was reported surrendering in droves. Reports from the seaside battleground around Nuoc Ngot Bay 290 miles northeast of Saigon said U.S. 1st Air Cavalrymen put the torch to a Viet Cong hamlet and then chopped up a Communist force whose ammunition had gone up in the flames, killing about 40. A U.S. helicopter sweeping in at tree-top level spotted another enemy force in a mangrove swamp nearby. Its chattering machineguns killed 20 and 37 others threw down their weapons and turned themselves in to South Vietnamese troops in the second mass surrender in as many eays. Sixty-six Viet Cong surrendered en masse the day before and unconfirmed reports said an additional 38 also gave up the fight, walking in with “safe conduct passes” in their hands. In the war’s other hot battleground just south of the demilitarized zone (DMZ), U.S. jets and naval guns helped South Vietnamese troops beat off an attack Thursday by an esti-

mated three North Vietnamese battalions — from 1,000 to 1,200 men. The Hanoi regulars sneaked down through the DMZ for the raid. When they broke off and went back, they left 200 comrades dead on the battlefield. Government officials said their losses were moderate.

PARIS UPI — Thousands of foot-sore Parisians were off the streets and on the subways again today after Paris metro workers ended their 24 hour walkout for higher wages and short work weeks. The strike, however, was not a total success. Disunity among the 20-odd trade union organizations representing subway workers and the relatively free flow of heavier-than-usual surface traffic marred the walkout’s overall effect.

Driven To Suicide MOSCOW UPI — A 14-ycar-old Russian boy was driven to suicide by oppressive collective farm officials who were punishing him for making too much hay for private use, a Soviet newspaper said TTursday. The paper said that the farm officials should be punished.
