He later had good reason to retract the apology when poor North wound up three tricks short of the contract for a loss of 300 points. It remained for the NorthSouth pair at the fifth table to produce the most surprising result of all. There the bidding
went:
East South West North 1 A Pa5S 2 • Pass 2 A Pass Pass! Pass Obviously, South intended two spades as a cuebid to compel partner to either bid the hearts again or name a new suit. But North either misunderstood the bid, thinking that South had a genuine spade suit, or else decided that the hand was a hot potato to be dropped as soon as possible. So South, obviously upset, found himself playing a contract of two spades. He won the opening spade lead with the ace, cashed the A-K of clubs, ruffed a club, finessed the queen of diamonds, and ruffed still another club. As a result, he wound up making two spades for the only plus score with the North-South cards!

By George Sibera PARIS UPI — President Charles de Gaulle stirred a minor diplomatic tussle with j Poland by expressing the wish to meet Stefan Cardinal Wyszynski during his current visit to Warsaw. The French president’s inten- j tion was in line with his habit of meeting the highest Roman i Catholic Church dignitaries in each country he visits. De Gaule’s reported plans have posed an embarrassing rid-! die for Paris and Warsaw. I Wyszynski, in addition to being i primate of Poland, is the ac- j knowledged leader of the only I organized force opposing his country’s Communist govern-;
ment.
Even a brief meeting and handshake between De Gaulle and the 66-year-old cardinal might be taken by some opponents of the Warsaw regime as De Gaulle’s tacit approval of the prelate’s criticism of the Communists. The French president is a Catholic who never fails to pay his respect to the Vatican. Officials say it was impossible for him not to try to meet Wyszynski since French presidents ; are nominal successors of the "very Christian’’ kings who for j 1,000 years ruled over a nation! called by the Popes “the elder; daughter of the church.” To avoid public demonstra-! tions, De Gaulle agreed not to

London’s police commissioner, Sir Joseph Simpson, said in his annual report the police ! knew of 282,588 crimes committed in London in 1966, or 33.7 crimes for every 1,000 persons and more than double the number in 1957, a decade ago. There is no reason to believe 1967 will

ain, included three policemen shot dead In cold blood and in broad daylight; an attractive society hairdresser strangled in her apartment; a man — apparently earmarked for death by the underworld — gunned; down in an East End bar; a woman whose naked torso was fished out of the Thames; a pretty Nigerian whose dismembered body was found in a cardboard box. Bank and jewelry robbers operated with near-impunity. 1 The pattern was almost invariably the same. In they would stride, whip out guns, hurl acid into frightened faces, scoop up the loot and make their getaway in a waiting car. The estimated value of all property stolen during the year was a staggering 21.3 million pounds ($59.64 million), more than the estimated value of the British crown jewels. Big - time gangsterism flourished, feeding on legalized gambling and the stubborn (some say foolish) refusal of the police to carry firearms. The mobs cleaned up, extorting protection from clubs, using clubs as vice centers, running strong-ann "collection services” for bad debts.
The sleuths of Scotland Yard did solve 38 of the year’s 49 murders. Two of the cop-killers were quickly caught and the third was apprehended after a nationwide manhunt. But over-; all. only 22.3 per cent of the j total crimes committed were solved. Most were robberies.
!
Despite the underworld’s growing disregard of the old unwritten understanding with i the police not to use guns, the government takes the position that “arming the police would probably lead more to escalation of violence than to increased protection for police or anyone else.” Instead, the city’s undermanned (by 6,200) 18,700-man police force has placed its reliance on walkie-talkies to keep the i man on the beat in constant! touch with headquarters, in- j creased use of the forensic ; sciences, computers, and on "flying squads” to pounce on bandits before they can escape. Scotland Yard lists protection rackets and gangland kill- ! ings as among the most difficult crimes to crack. In both cases, the refusal of the victims J and witnesses to talk makes it impossible to collect the eviI dence needed for conviction.
Victims of the protection rackets are generally owners of clubs and other establishments who are not too easy about their own legal standing. They tend to pay quietly. The gangland killer is protected by the underworld code which prohibits crooks from talking to the police about gang warfare. Violators risk ending up encased in cement at the bottom of the
Thames.

After an extended vacation from writing my column, I am happy to start the news of 4-H and extension happenings. After the successful 1967 County Fair, considerable time was spent cleaning and recording results of the fair. Then it was time for the State Fair. The miscellaneous and home economics exhibits had to be taken to the State Fair one week before it actually opened. This was to allow for the judging and arranging of the exhibits, before the fair actually starts. The Agricultural Judging teams judged before the fair started. North Putnam had Dairy and Crops Judging Teams. One placed seventh and the other eighth. This is good in the rugged competition of the state contest.

During the first eight days of the fair, I served as a counselor at the Boys 4-H Dormitory. This dormitory is a place for the 4-H livestock boys to sleep and eat. Although it is a little distance from the livestock barns, it is an excellent place for the boys to stay. The meals are extra good and very reasonable in cost. Gordon Smith of Cloverdale stayed at the dorm. The girls also have similar facilities. A comparison of this year’s State Fair results compared to last year s shows that we netted eleven more blue ribbons this year than last year, plus the addition of Doris Hartman’s champion flower exhibit.

Bill Judy had the 4-H Reserve Jr. Champion and his brother, Steve, received the 4-H Reserve Sr. Champion in Ayrshires. The Judys also won the premier county award for Putnam County. David Bruner had the champion 4-T Tamworth gilt and brother Marshall had the reserve champion. A note of interest, Forrest Crowe of Clay County won the State Senior Tractor Driving Contest. Forrest tied for first in the district contest which was held at Greencastle. Mark Jones of Warren Township was the champion 4-H Horseshoe pitcher at the State Fair.

Redwing is more concerned with the plight of the reservation Indian today than in the century or so in which the redskin fought the white man’s invasion of his hunting grounds. "The Custer series isn’t serious or important enough to really focus attention on the American Indian today,” he
said.
"Hopkins-Dukes is using it as a springboard to bring attention to current Indian problems. And in that respect he’s doing a
good job.
"My objection is that television and movie companies don’t use real Indians on the screen. There are only about 30 working Indians in Hollywood today. "There should be more of us finding jobs in the industry, especially with all the new westerns going this year.”

By Vernon Scott HOLLYWOOD UPI—It may sound like a publicity stunt, but it isn’t—the American Indians have sent up a war chant to knock the new television series, “Custer,” off the air. A firebrand Kowa, Amos Hop-kins-Dukes, filed suit in federal court asking for an injunction against ABC-TV to "halt discriminatory practices against American Indians.” Hopkins-Dukes, national executive director of the Tribal Indian Land Rights Assn., and a Marine veteran, is on the warpath—but good. He has asked the desmise of "Custer” to "halt the white man’s rape of Indian rights that he has perpetrated for hundreds
of years.”
Alas, Hopkins-Duke’s bid for killing Custer a second time has been set aside by the courts. Where could Custer—or western television and movies—be with-
