Republicans-Democrats To Work Togeather INDIANAPOLIS UPI—Indiana Democrats agreed today to work cooperatively with a Republican delegation in an effort to achieve a compromise on congressional districting and push for a special session of the legislature before Sept 15. Democratic state chairman Gordon St Angelo said, however, he intends to name two legislators to the negotiating committee instead of four state committee members, as the Republicans did. ‘1 still feel we should rely on the people who are directly responsible—the subcommittee on reapportionment of the Indiana Legislative Council,” St. Angelo said. "I think our two members on the subcommittee can represent the Democrats adequately, and we will work very closely with the Republicans, as closely as they will work with us.” The entire GOP state committee met Wednesday with GOP legislative leaders and the party’s two subcommittee members. Afterwards state chairman Charles O. Hendricks said agreement had been reached to name four district chairmen to meet with a Democrtaic committee and try to work out agreement on a reapportionment plan.

AMMAN, Jordan UPI—King Hussein of Jordan, tired, unshaven and In battle dress, said today his nation was “almost left alone ... by our many friends” in the war against Israel The appearance of the 32-year-old monarch at a hastily called news conference dispelled a rash of rumors in the west that he had fled his country. Hussein vowed Jordan “once again will fight to the last man” if warfare resumes with Israel. Jordan was the only Arab counRubber Contract Talks Continue AKRON, Ohio UPI —Negotiators for the striking United Rubber Workers Union and five major rubber companies bargained today on a single-pack-age wage, pension and welfare proposal. The package plan combined wage proposals, which all five companies have been negotiating all spring, and pension and welfare proposals. Welfare pension contracts do not expire until next September. The new plan, expected to cost an average of 60 cents per man-hour, would settle wages and fringe benefits in one threeyear contract. Strong union resistance to extending any wage contract from two year to three years held up early settlement of the 47-day rubber strike. The contract renewal plan was first proposed by the Goodyear Rubber Co., the Firestone Tire & Rubber Co., and Uniroyal, Inc. The B.F. Goodrich Co. and the General Tire and Rubber Co. joined the move later this week. Firestone, Goodrich and Uniroyal have been struck for 47 days, with walkouts idling 50,000 URW members across the country. Goodyear’s wage contract also expired April 20, but union members remained on their jobs on a day-to-day basis. The General Tire and Rubber Co. contract expired May 15, but the two General Tire plants remain in production. The three-year contract proposal would provide 38-cent hourly wage increases for skilled tire workers in annual increases of 16 cents the first year and 11 cents the remaining two years. Less killed production workers’ pay rates would go up 31 cents, 13 cents the first year and nine cents in each of the next two years.

try to have accepted a United Nations Security Council ceasefire order. Israel agreed to abide j by it with Jordan. The king blamed Jordan’s defeat on superior air power. Hussein obviously was depressed. “The battle against us was waged mainly, almost exclusively, from the air with overwhelming strength and continued with sustained air attacks on every single unit and every single formation of our armed forces day and night, right until last night.” he said. “The Israeli forces based on the ground were never able to inflict as much damage on our troops.” Hussein admitted “tremendous” losses to his armed forces. Jordan’s army had been estimated at 65,000 men and had been considered one of the toughest, best-trained military organizations in the Mideast. Hussein spoke to newsmen in Amman’s military headquarters. Most of the newsmen were American and British.

Konstam and Gray, had a partnership misunderstanding about the application of the suit-preference convention, and, as a result, permitted the Italian pair, Avarelli and D’Alelio, to make five hearts doubled. By a strange coincidence, on the very next deal the Italian pair also had a problem involving the suit-preference convention, but, as usual with the Italians, there was no partnership misunderstanding, and they found exactly the right defense against five spades doubled. Gray made an excellent deci-

sion when he elected to bid four spades over four hearts with only a four-card suit. D’Alelio would have made five hearts, and the English pair did well to locate their spade fit at such a high .level. Avarelli led the jack of hearts and on it D’Alelio played, tho ten. This was intended as a suit - preference signal, sinco D’Alelio was obviously not signaling for a continuation of hearts by playing the ten, but was asking his partner to shift to the higher - ranking of tha two side suits (clubs and diamonds). So Avarelli switched to A diamond, which D’Alelio ruffed. D’Alelio now played the ace and another club and Avarelli, upon taking the king, led a second diamond for D’Alelio to ruff. This fine defense brought tha Italians to the end of the road, but they had managed to exact & toll of 500 points for their efforts. The hand points op the value of a clear partnership understanding in a situation where most players have at best only a vague arrangement. Adopting a particular convention in bidding or play because you think it will pay off in the long run is not nearly as important as making sure that you and your partner talk the same language when the situation actually arises. That Is what determines a good partnership.

BILLINGS, Mont. UPI — William Edward Weeks knew his 9-month-old Belgium shep-' herd's first litter probably would be a big one-but he didn’t know the half of it.

Dear Heloise: Here's a hint for those who wear rubber gloves. Glue a clothespin on the inside of the door under your kitchen sink to hold your gloves. (I used the strong-hold-ing, quick-setting glue.) Takes no extra room and saves time in hunting for them when they’re needed. Pat • • • • Dear Heloise: Many times when reading a magazine or newspaper, I’ll find an interesting article or joKe which I think my husband would appreciate. Since he takes his lunch to work each day, I try to pack a

variety of foods to make his meal more pleasant. But the best yet is to include one of these cut out items or jokes to brighten his lunch hour. He loves those little clippings I insert. Mrs. Reilly • • • Dear Heloise: If I plan to be gone when the milkman comes, I put ice cubes in our small plastic foam ice chest. Then I put it beside my milk bottles (which contain a note asking him to put my purchases in the chest) When I go shopping or visiting I don’t have to worry about spoiled dairy products. Ann Quincy
