I Mcclure was more cautious, and
decided to plan against all possible
emergencies. At the second trick
he prepared for an elimination play
in case he should ind the king OF
spades wrong, and it should be alb
solutely necessary to confne his
diamond losers to one trick.
Accordingly, he led the king OF
clubs at trick two, which West won
with the ace and returned a heart
Mcclure ruffed in dummy with
the four of spades and returned the
f1ve, going up with the ace of
spades, when West showed void OF
that suit.
He next returned a club to dunn
my's queen and led back a small
club, which was ruffed in his own
hand.
He led his last heart, ruffing in
dummy with the eight of spades, and
returned the last club, which he
was careful to ruff in his own hand
with the ten of spades.
East'S play now is immateriaI. but
as it happened he declined to over
ruff and discarded a small dia-
mond.
Mcclure led the ten of diamonds
from his hand and West won with
the queen, but found himself in a
hopeless position.
/ To return a heart would enable
the declarer to ruff in one hand
and discard losing diamond from
the other, while to lead a diamond
would relinquish all hope of taking
another trick in that suit.
Thus, by losing only one club, one
diamond and one spade, Mcclure
was able to make his four spade
contract.

South and West passed and Nc
clure, in the North, opened with
one spade. His hand did not quite
justify that bid in first or second
position, but in the one over one
system third hand may open with
hand of very moderate strength.
East passed and Henderson, in the
South, bid three spades. This was
game-demand force and COM
manded the partner to bid either
four spades or three no trump,
whichever contract seemed best.
Mcclure re-bid to four spades
which became the final contract.
The Play
East opened with the king of
hearts, which appeared to be the
only logical lead from his hand, and
of course the declarer won with the
ace.
An analysis of the hand showed
one sure club loser, and the pos
sibility of losing one spade and two
diamonds.
Most declarers proceeded in the
hope that at least one of the pos
sible illnesses would be right, and
thereby the success of the contract
would be assured.

which the nation itself was, so to

has done the same thing.
Incidentally, Miss Zugsnith has
enjoyed something of Mr.. Dos Pas
sos success; for Never Enough
is o remarkably strong book, as
human and as absorbing as your
daily paper, filled with some of the
most vivid characters that have ap-
peared in American fiction in many
day.
In this book she studies the ca
reers of divers Americans; an
adroit and sensual politician, a
gangster, drifting ex-reporter, an
earnest lad who is trying to fight
off tuberculosis and write a book
on philosophy, young woman of
easy virtue, a frustrated shop girl,
an energetic Communist, an actress
and perhaps a dozen others.
Their lives are inter-connected
only casually. They drift in and
out of the story st random; per-
haps you are getting bakers doz-
en- of short stories loosely tied to-
gether.
But what makes the book sue
coed is the fact that they are all
very real people. You don't get
confused, because you don't forget
any of them.
And out of it all you get a SYM
pathetic and deeply interesting
picture of the last fifteen years of
American life. Never Enough" is

THE elimination of strip play is
Il a consistent winner of tricks.
When properly applied, it enables
the declarer to avoid many a dan
gerous finesse, and the expert player
usually will find one or two oppor-
tunities to execute it in every ses-
sion of play.
Many such plays are simple in
execution, but the following hand,
recently played in the Beaver VAL
ley championship, required careful
planning by the declarer, for he
was obliged to start the play at the
second trick.
The only declarer who succeeded
in making four spades on this hand
was George G. Mcclure, who, with
r. j. Henderson, won the Beaver
Valley championship.

POST OFFICES NOT WANTED

THE unheard of happened not once this
week but thrice, when three cities de-
clared they did not wish new post offices
which would be awarded them under the
Garner pork barrel, bill.
Traditionally the shoe is on the other
loot, with communities striving to induce
congress to grant them new post offices
For many years this has been recognized
as desirable way of paying off a po-
ltical debt.
That one of the three cities happens to
be of considerable size, Buffalo, N. Y,
makes the refusal in this case even more
remarkable. A $315,O00 post office is
not to be sneezed at lightly.
Oregon, Illinois, did the same thing.
local resident, born and raised in Ore
gon, informs us that the town is smaller
in size than Holtville, that it is a nice
little town, but hasn't grown an inch in
so years.
The post office there has for years
been adequate for the needs of the town."
he informs US, "and l doubt if $4,000
worth of mail has been sent out from the
town since it was founded Placing
$4,000 post office in Oregon would only
be carrying out the idea expressed in the
old cowpuncher song about the $40 hoss
and the $40 saddle'-a needless expense
as the Oregon citizens state
The best proof of the folly of the
Garner bill is this unheard of refusal Of
new post offices.

"Oh, that must be my Lightning

"The Bug is showing his light

There's no HARM

I'm sorry, too,' said the Bug.
But I have to-"
Then, Wiggy,' said his wife,

Bug down to the Kitchen"
"All right" agreed the rabbit
who always tried to please his
wife. So he jumped out of bed
and took the Lightning Bug, in the
box, down stairs. And on the way
nothing much happened except
that Uncle Wiggily stepped on

scattered and it so surprised him
that he slipped and slid most of
the way down stairs.
/ However, it makes a jolly ad-
venture said the rabbit gentleman
as he limped back up to bed. hav-
ing put the Lightning Bug on the
kitchen table. He was just going
to sleep again, as was his wife,

bungalow is on fire! Get up,
Wiggyl Jump out of the window,
you and your wife and Nurse Jane
and all the little Dummies! I'll save
you! Fire! Fire! I'll call the Water
Bugs and save you!"

barked the Police Dog. Il can see

''Nonsensel" said Uncle Wiggily
with a laugh. ITS just my Light

for making the fire alarm and
they all went back to bed and the
