Federal workers pay hike looms WASHINGTON UPI—House members were prepared today to sideline their economy drive and vote two million politically potent federal workers a salary increase that would be partially paid for by higher postal rates. The main question to be resolved appeared to be not | whether to approve a pay boost, but how much it should be. The bill being debated proposed a $2.6 billion raise in three stages spread over 18 months. It would also increase postal rates to bring in another $884 million a year. Regular letter and postcard stamps would go up one cent each, airmail and greeting cards two cents each, news publications 23 per cent over a threeyear period, and business mailings, including so-called “junk mail," 32 per cent in one year. A strong move was under way to accept only the first-stage salary increase, which would cost $628 million, retroactive to Oct. 1. Support for this move grew as congressmen privately pointed out that they could still be cast in the role of fighting for economy while at the same time helping a politically important voting bloc. Any pay raise given the federal civilian employes is going to be matched for military personnel in another bill waiting in the wings; this is certain to ’ get enthusiastic House approval. The military pay boost would j bring the total salary package including the $628 million firststage pay increases for civilian workers, to about $1.2 billion in the current fiscal year that will end next June 30.

Opening lead—four of hearts. Let s say you’re in six clubs reached on the bidding shown. East’s two club bid marks him with great length in the major suits, including probably the king of spades, and also suggests a void in clubs Assuming these facts, how should you play the hand? If you win the heart lead with the ace, discarding a diamond, and then play the ace

I the diamond and returns a I spade. In the actual hand, you ga ! down whether you finesse or not. If you take the ace and ruff a diamond, you establish the suit all right, but you ara then unable to take advantage of it because West has all the missing trumps. It should not surprise you to run into this dead end since the bidding Indicated that it might iiappen. The problem is to make the slam despite a 3-0 trump break and the unfavorable location of the king of spades, and this is a challenging problem even if you look at all four hands. The critical play comes at trick one when you must cover the four of hearts with the five and discard a diamond on East's king! The effect of this play Is that West can never take the lead for the embarrassing spade

shift.

Let’s say East returns a heart to the ace (his return doesn’t really matter) on which you discard the nine of diamonds. Tou cash the diamond ace, play a club to the ten, ruff a diamond, play a club to the jack, and ruff another diamond. That establishes the suit and, after drawing West's last

and another diamond, hoping to I trump, you cross to the ace of establish the diamonds and thus ! spades and discard a spade to avoid a spade finesse, you run j bring home the slam. That's all into trouble when West wins I there is to it. . (© 1967, King Features Syndicate. Inc.) Shopping Guide GM calls back

South Putnam school news

South Putnam Schools at Fillmore and Reelsville are in the process of building a basic book collection for their libraries. The acquisition of books has been done with a view to the future when the two high schools will be combined and publications have been kept to a minimum. In the spring of 1957, 550 new books were acquired for the two high schools. This was made possible by the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, Title II, which provided the funds for library material. The books were primarily in the field of fiction, biography, t literature, social sciences, history, including geography and travel. A set of Colliers encyclopedias was purchased for Fillmore High School and a

new set of World Book encyclopedias was added to the library collection in each of the schools. Child Craft was added to the two elementary schools at Reelsville and Fillmore. Approximately fifty periodicals have been ordered this fall for all the schools. Much needed reference books are on our “want” list, and we hope to acquire these in the near future. A basic collection should contain 6.000-10.000 volumes for schools with an enrollment of 200-999 pupils according to state standards. Our present schools have a meager start on this goal. Hopefully this will be accomplished by the time the new school is ready for use. Administrators, teachers and parents should encourage pupils to make friends with books.

This not only helps to broaden . their interests and widen their - views, hut it makes them better students in the process. We must keep in mind our students at South Putnam will be competing in life with peoj pie from various types of schools from all parts of the country and in order not to short change them we must do the very best we can to offer j them the same opportunities as | students from larger schools. ! This can be done by a good ! school library program which can provide horizons unlimited to the young people of South j Putnam Schools. Let's be able to welcome to our new school the man who | said. “Show me your library and I’ll tell you what kind of a ] school you have.”
