By ROBERTA ROESCH One damaging emotional problem that some people take to work is the constantly nagging feeling that, even when they are accomplishing things, they are achieving them in the wrong job. All too ofen I see evidence of this tearing job-holders apart. And this week I saw it happening again while I talked to a wife and mother. Followed Pattern “A year ago,” she told me, "I followed the latest pattern in my social circle and went out to look for a job. “At the time I was discontented about my lot in life, so I went to a local employment agency and gave an immediate ‘Yes’ to a job offer at a radio station which was just starting up in our town. “I didn’t take time to ask myself whether this work was right for me, because everyone encouraged me and told me I had a wonderful chance to move in on the ground floor and grow right along with the station. “I listened to everyone, and rushed into the job, convinced that I must push myself in order to make good. “I guess I made good,” she said, “because just about six weeks ago the station manager gave me a program of my own. “At first it seemed like the ultimate in opportunity, and I told myself — while my friends told me, too—that this work was just what I wanted. Gnawing Feeling “But, frankly, I don’t like it at all. A flatness has settled in. And even though I’m accomplishing things, I have the gnawing feeling I’m achieving them in the wrong job. “Do you think I’m crazy?” she asked. “Everyone thinks that I am.” I disagree that this woman is crazy, and so would psychiatrists, as well as psychologists and clergymen. These authorities have continually pointed out that discontented feelings and gnawing uncertainties often run through our emotions when .we are not entirely satisfied
to work each day, give yourself some personal therapy. Stop to catch your breath long enough to study and understand what your emotional needs and desires are. Ask yourself what kind of achievement is most apt to satisfy you. Stop listening to the pressure of your family or social group. Simultaneously, stop running around in circles just for the sake of accomplishing things that seem urgent but not important. Listen To Yourself Instead, pay attention to your own voice. Decide what opportunities you want personally. Then move away from your present spot and find one where you belong.
Don’t Run In Circles Doing Tilings That Are Unimportant that we ars working at the right job. So, if you take this feeling

U.S. To Expand Guam Bombers WASHINGTON UPI — The United States will expand its B52 bomber force on Guam early next year and may move some of the huge jets into Thailand so they can strike {more swiftly at Communist targets in Viet Nam. Detailed proposals for Thailand operations have been prepared for study by Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara. He long has wanted to base some of the B52s closer to the enemy forces they have been pounding with widely-acclaimed results. A single eight-engine B52 can carry as powerful load of conventional bombs as a dozen or more of the fighter-bombers now based in South Viet Nam and Thailand. Operating on 4,300-mile round trips from Guam, the B52s have been described by U.S. military officials as the weapon most feared by enemy forces. In February, 20 of the $8 million aircraft will be added to the present force of 50 on Guam. No decision to shift some of these to Thailand has been made yet. There would be weighty political considerations involved in moving such powerful weapons into that country’.
Jury Impaneled INDIANAPOLIS UPI—Judge Cale J. Holder impaneled a new federal grand jury here Tuesday and named Ray Snapp, editor of the Bedford Times-Mail, as foreman. John H. Goen, Bloomington school principal, was named deputy foreman.
School Lunch Prices Higher WASHINGTON UPI — Millions of children across the nation are paying more for their school lunches this term—and some may have to pay sti'J more in early 1967. School lunch prices are set locally and federal authorities have no direct power over changes. But an official of the federal school lunch program today told of reports that in many areas youngsters were meeting the sharpest price increases in several years. A preliminary report from an Agriculture Department survey of price changes in school lunchrooms showed that, of 831 schools in five states, 308 had raised their prices. In most cases, the increase amounted to 5 cents per lunch. Local officials cited three major factors behind the increases: rising labor costs, rising food costs, and a drop in donations of food from the Agriculture Department during the early part of the school year. The department expects to be donating more food to the school lunch program in the months ahead, but labor costs probably wil continue to rise, according to officials. Howard Davis, head of the department’s food distribution division, foresees the possibility of some further increases in school lunch prices during the last half of the school year. He said the increase might come in some rural and small city schools and might result from the new federal minimum wage legislation, which goes into effect Jan. 1. School lunch prices vary from area to area across the naticn. On the average, however, the total cost of a typical lunch is slightly more than 50 cents. Of this, an estimated 11 cents is paid by federal contributions in cash and food; another 11 or 12 cents comes from payments by state and local governments, and the remainder—about 28 cents—is paid by the children. Actual prices frequently run however, since some needy youngsters get their lunches at reduced rates or free.
Both Accused HARROW, England UPI —A 17-year-old driver in this city firmly believes that “turn about is fair play.” When an officer stopped him recently, then drove his car to the station house before giving him a ticket for driving a vehicle with bad brakes, Paul Ralph responded by charging the officer with the same offense. The officer thought it was a joke, but his superior didn’t. A judge will hear both eases later this month.

Opening lead — A 5 West opened a trump but didn’t know anything about beards. South looked at West, saw that he was still the same person who had led the trump and realized what was going on. Any opening lead but trump would have given South his contract if West led a low heart declarer would play low from dummy and would eventually develop a trick with dummy’s queen. If West opened the queen of diamonds, South would take the ace and later win a finesse with dummy’s ten. And if West opened a club, South would get
a free finesse.
The trump lead gave South a chance to go down, and South would do just that if he tried to make the contract by his own efforts. Instead, South worked out the reason for West’s opening lead and proceeded on the assumption that West held strength in each side suit. FORCES LEAD Declarer won the trump in his hand and led a heart, losing dummy’s queen to the ace. Back came a club, and South stepped up with the ace. South gave up another heart and ruffed the
heart return.
Now South drew a second round of trumps, cashed the top diamonds and gave up a diamond. West had to win and had to give up the trick that his opening lead had saved. If West led a club, South would get the free finesse, and if West led anything else dummy would

The opponents pass at each turn, and it is up to you again, holding: S-A Q J 4; H-10 5; D-A 6 3; C-A K J. What do you say? Answer: Bid 3 NT. You have 19 points in high cards and partner should have at least 6 for his response. Even if the combined total is only 25 points (one short of the amount usually needed for game) the strength of your long suit should be ample compensation for the missing point.
A Local Teenager's View By Janet Staub “Rain, rain, go away, come again some other day.” Of course everybody recognized the beginning line as sort of a
chant learned in early childhood. Many people don’t realize that rain is a necessity for all life. When members of the city dwelling society mutter objections, such as the beginning chant, during a shower or thunderstorm, we don’t realize that millions of both men and animals are gladdened by the falling drops. When rain falls after a long dry spell, all nature undergoes a revival of life. Withering plants and trees become green again, and farmers who had been afraid they would lose the ircrops (winter wheat) have hopes for a harvest. Streams baked almost dry by the summer sun refill and make it possible for the fish and other water animals to live and multiply. Birds drink gladly from the pools of water. Of course too much rain means flooding. A rain drop is just water that has evaporated then turned into water vapor then after reaching the dew point condenses into rain or dew. By the Way: Rumor has It that one inch of rain equals one foot of snow . . . now who wants the rain to go away and maybe be replaced by the white fluffy stuff?

USS WAIN WRIGHT — Fireman Jack E. Pingleton, USN, son of Mrs. Fannie E. Pingleton, 800 North Madison Street, Greeneastle, and Seaman Apprentice Michael R. Phipps, son of Mr. and Mrs. Homer Phipps, Greeneastle, Route 4, are on maneuvers aboard this U. S. ship in the mid-Atlantic and Caribbean Sea, as part of “Lantflex-66”, the largest composite training exercise for the U. S. Atlantic fleet this year. Involving 94 ships, 19 air squadrons and more than 42,000 men, “Lanflex”, which stands for “Atlantic Flee Exercise,” will be in progress from November 28 through December 16. Operating with the American fleet will be three destroyers
from Canada.
“Lantflex” is conducted to increase the defense effectiveness and overall combat readiness of all participating forces under simulated wartime conditions. To this end, segments of the fleet will play the “aggressor” forces, while others will portray either “defensive”or “support and logistics” roles. As part of the exercise, more
than 5,000 U. 8. Marine* Will stage mock “Over-the-beach” landings, as defensive land forces utilize conventional and guerrilla tactics to stop the ad-
vancing troops.
Don’t sit on a fur coat any longer than is necessary. Sitting for long periods, and particularly when driving a car, subjects the fur to strain. Opeq the coat and lift it up around you to avoid wear.
