Shopping Guide The following guide to the nation’s food buys for the week end was prepared by the U. S. Department of Agriculture and Interior for United Press International WASHINGTON UPI —Week end food shoppers will find an attractive array of meat and poultry along with early fall fruits and vegetables. At fresh produce counters there will be ample supplies of cabbage, lettuce, onions, potatoes and in some areas tomatoes and squash. Fruit bins will offer plenty of apples, seedless grapes, with plums available in many locatities and watermelons still in season in some areas. For main dish choices—broil-er-fryer chickens and turkeys are in excellent supply most everywhere in the country. Beef roasts, hams and pork roasts are also plentiful in many areas. In the fish department, watch for generally good supplies of frozen fish fillets and steaks.

Television In Review

By RICK DU BROW HOLLYWOOD UPI — The television premiere season of new series has come and gone, and it is entirely understandable if you hadn’t noticed. To describe it as a disaster would be misleading, for a disaster implies that something of major import has occurred, and the whole point about the new series Is that nothing has happened. In sum, they may be described as the nonentity brigade. But if all this sounds disparaging, it is not really meant to be, and for very pragmatic industry reasons. It has been quite obvious for some time that the standard series as we know it — the kind that arrived this season — has been reduced in network status to the position of mere filler: necessary, bread-and-butter filler, true, but filler nevertheless. These shows are economically important, but in fact their downgrading marks the beginning of what many believe eventually will be the phasing out of series hi their present form. In practical terms, the real

television season will soon begin now that the routine overture is over. What I am talking about, of course, are the countless “specials” that are due to arrive, the broadcasts on which the networks have lavished all the attention they used to give to series. For specials and movies are the new television power centers — and internationallyoriented programming will soon burgeon also in importance. Thus, to demolish the new, standard series with a critical ax is as pointless as using a double-barreled shotgun to blast a field mouse. It is impossible to say, without any fear of contradiction, that the new series have failed tq bring forth a single important show in terms of advancing television. Last season, there was at least “ABC Stage 67” and its lure of weekly novelty. This season, ABC-TV has regressed to the bang-bang-you’re-dead philosophy of programming that characterized the reign of its former boss, Ollie Treyz. CBS-TV’s contribution to this season — situation comedies, westerns, a private eye, a vari-

ety hour and a children’s show — have been routine also. Of the three networks, NBC-TV has the new series that are easiest to take. They are all on the safe side, but at least there is sometimes a feeling of taste and just plain good fun — serials that are just that—and several of the shows have the potential to develop into amiable timekillers.

Opening lead—jack of clubs. The outcome of most hands depends largely on which side has the preponderance of high cards, but there are many deals where the result is determined

by other factors.

For example, take this hand where South wins the club lead with the queen and returns the queen of diamonds. If West knows his way around the table, he ducks and allows South to win the trick. (If West takes the queen, South is bound to make two diamond tricks and

the contract)

When the queen holds, declarer leads another diamond and West again follows low.

Now South has a difficult guess, since he does not know where the ace and jack are located. If West has the jack, South should play the nine from dummy; if West has the ace, South should put up the king. Presenting declarer with such guesses is part of the basic strategy of defense, and anyone who regularly misses such opportunities is selling himself

short

Strangely enough, if declarer plays the hand properly, he makes the contract regardless of where the ace and jack of diamonds are located. All he has to do to assure the contract is lead the four of diamonds to dummy’s eight at trick two. This play guarantees two diamond tricks against any lie of the cards. If the eight holds, a low diamond to the queen produces a second diamond trick. If the eight loses to the jack, South later overtakes the queen with the king to establish two diamond tricks. Finally, if the eight forces the ace, South again has two diamond tricks to show for his efforts. Consequently, all roads can be said to lead to Rome—provided declarer has the presence of mind to lead a low diamond at trick two. But if he makes the mistake of leading the queen and West is on his toes—West can present South with a mighty difficult guess.
