CONTRACT BRIDGE By B. Jay Becker (Tag Racord-HoMar in Mostart' individual Ghampianship May)

Tou run into bad trump distribution once in a while, but in a surprising number of cases you can overcome the bad luck and still come out whole. For example, take this hand where West led a club to the ace and dummy returned a low heart, East showing out. The 5-0 trump break certainly put the contract in jeopardy, but it did not by any means make the slam hopeless. Declarer went up with the ace and led the A-K of spades, since no line of play could succeed unless West had at least two spades. When he then played the jack of spades, discarding a diamond as East showed out, busi-

ness picked up considerably. South now knew that West had started with four spades, five hearts, and either one or two clubs, since the club lead was almost surely a singleton or doubleton. Declarer not led a diamond to the king and another one back to the ace, and when West dropped the queen on it, the count of the hand became complete. West was marked with 4-6-2-2 distribution, and the slam therefore became a sure thing. Declarer ruffed a spade in dummy and a club in his own hand, producing this position; North *J7 *J9 West East * Q 9 8 6 Immaterial South ♦ Q *K10 South now led a diamond and West was forced to ruff. When he elected to ruff with the queen, South discarded a club from dummy, won the trump return with the ten, and ruffed his spade with the jack of hearts to make the slam. Had West decided to ruff with the eight, dummy would have overruffed with the jack and returned a dub. South would then have discarded his spade to compel a tramp return to the K-10.

It seems the ever-pressing problem of money was just as crucial to the city fathers then as it is now. “The request made by Councilman O. L. Jones, chairman of the finance committee for a special session of the city council in which he desires to talk over the condition of the city’s | finances has caused the taxpayi ers of Greencastle to center upon the “money question.” The truth of the matter is that the city’s finances are in bad shape and the raising of the tax levy from the beloved ninety cent rate, that rate to which the Republican party in Greencastle has pointed with pride for so many years must ultimately follow lest the road of bankruptcy lies invitingly before us.” “The situation in a nutshell is this: The income of the city last year was $21,000 of thereabouts; the outgo $24,000.” American Ingenuity at its Best. If you are planning a vacation this summer and want to have fresh butter when you reach your designation, try the method that a dairyman in New Jersey accidently found when his radiator became overheated. “An auto-milk wagon driver ran out of water on the way from the farm to town to ship milk and cream to market. The machine stopped. Wren the driver investigated the water cooler he discovered it was empty. Besides, he was far from any water supply.” •Tve read some place,” He said to himself, “that normally milk consists of 96 per cent water, 5 per cent substances which produce muscle and 9 per cent fat. That is not as good as cucumbers, which are 97 per cent water, or even as good as turnips, which are 94.4 per cent water. However, as cucumbers are out of season, and the farmers have buried their turnips, I guess I’ll have to fall back on milk, so here goes.” “He lifted a can, poured in the yellowish-white fluid, closed the water cooler, put on power

and soon was on his way to town again. That town almost was in sight When the machine balked again. The driver opened the water cooler and discovered he had filled the water cooler with pure cream, which is 100 per cent fat. Abandoning his butter-clogged machine, he walked to town for help. Horses dragged the four-wheeled churn to a garage, and all the way there the driver was trying to think out an auto attachment for printing and wrapping butter after the churning process.”

An item appearing on the classified page of the Banner: “Lost—On road between Rockville and Greencastle—a package wrapped in paper containing comb and brush, a night shirt and blue window curtains —finder please return to this office for reward.”

A young man from the Ozarks. reputed to be a coming Joe Di Maggio, was signed by the Mets, and he and his wife headed for their very first look at New York City. “Oh, boy,” chortled the player, wait till you see Shea. Stadium!” “Oh, boy,” gurgled his wife, “wait till you see Saks Filth Avenue!” • • On the wall of Sam HimmeU’s office hangs a quotation from Clarence Day that will bring cheer to everyone who loves to read good books: “The world of books Is the most remarkable creation of man. Nothing else he builds lasts. Monuments fall, nations perish. Civilizations grow old and die out And, after an era of darkness, new races build others. But in the world of books are volumes That have seen this happen again and again And yet live on, still young, Still as fresh as the day they were written. Still telling men’s hearts Of the hearts of men centuries dead.” j © 1967, by Bennett Cerf. Distributed by King Features Syndicate
