The only certain tricks which the
declarer could see when the deal opened
were five in the club suit and three dia-
monds. which, of course. was INSULT
Client Had he gone at once 10 his club
suit after winning with the ace Of dla-
monds. the opponents would have
switched to spades as soon as the heart
suit was preached.
The only way in which the declarer
could have avoided the menace OF the
spade suit was to make the diamonds
more attractive to whichever opponent
happened to hold the ace of hearts.
He therefore played the queen OF diar
monds on h ace. deliberately sacrifice
ing a trick in the diamond suit, and
led hearts instead of clubs at trick two.
From the viewpoint of south at trick
two. 1t would appear that there was
something wrong with the club suit
in the declarer's hand. In which case
west would probably be strong In
spades. Also al north apparently had
n very long suit OF diamonds. which
one more lead would establish. south

STORY OF THE BLACK sAss.

~ IGGING deep in the stories of
how mani Of our American
fishes and mammals were first
- found and described by scientists
often brings to light some interesting
stories. For instance. tho Washington
zoologist who years ago ran across the
first specimen OF that little dwarf rab-
bit in the west nearly n heart failure
when the cook of his camp. not know
ing that this rabbit was so valuable,
dressed and served the animal for the
camp table. thus destroying the first
specimen ever taken and recognized as
a new species to science. Fortunately
these little rabbits. which frequent the
sagebrush country. were abundant and
the next day the scientist was able to
get more specimens which later formed
his basis for n description OF o new
species.
Going back in the story Of the black
bass brings to light equally interesting
information about. the discovery of a
new species. Tho generic name MI
cropterus was given 10 the small mouth
black bass by the French ichthyologist.
Lacepde. in the year 1902. A specimen
WINS sent to him in Paris. although
from what part of America apparently
no one knows. The interesting thing
about the way tho FISH was named Is
this. The small mouth which Lace
pede received had a bum dorsai I'm.
Some of the p%osterior rays Of the dor.
sal were detached from tho rest. thus
giving the fish the appearance Of pos.
session a short and separate I'm. It
was curious and you can imagine the
fish experts puzzling over that pecul-
lar dorsal I'm.
Moreover, there vas no group OF
fishes known to them in which they
could classify this fish from America,
so 1t was necessary to establish n new
genus to take It in. Lacepede created
ono called M~icropterus, which means
small fin. added the specific name of
dolomieu as n compliment to his friend
M. Dolomieu. a Frenchman who was a
m~inoralogist OF note, and thus wns the
small mouth bass put on the map as
1.-The iHh with the small fin." Incl
dentally that battered bass with a bum
dorsal fin is still in pretty good condi-
ton In the Museum OF Naturul His.
tory In Paris.
In deiving into the story of the large
mouth bass o again 20 hack to this
chap Lacopede. as he was the one who
first told the world about this nsh.
However. this time he had no specimen
OF any sort Only a drawing and a
description formed the basis Of his
description and these came from n
chap In South Carolina who called the
fish n "trout.perch." As IA result OF
this handle attached to the bass by
this carolinan, LRcepede decided TO
give the fish tho name OF saimoldes,
which means. " salmonlike or trout.
like" Here is n case where the YER.
nacular or local namo OF n nsh had
IN influence upon tho scientific name
which IL received. As IL we'll known
the plymouth bass Ii called a trout 10
this day In the southern slater. This
is mighty confusing sometimes, but
the custom goes back many years.

Washington Needs Better Facilities

~ ROVIDING ample facilities

ties. az well as privileges. Of civ
liked life. Medical authorities
agree that, to safeguard health
and provide for normal needs,
every community should have at
l~as+ fifty hospital beds for each
10000 OF its people. Washington.

each 10000, while New York has
80; Philadelphia, Sc; Baltimore,

this minimum standard, Washing
ton should have, In its hospitals
open to the general public, $3.50
beds. It has. as a matter Of fact,
only 1895.
What has caused this serious
shortage? The mere fact that the
