East now decided to shift to
the king of clubs. hoping to es-
tabiish a club trick, but this very
play allowed declarer to make the
contract. Declarer discarded O

He now played all the trump

held the king-nineof spades and
the king-six Of hearts, dummy the
eight of spades, the ace-four OF
hearts and the Jack Of clubs. and
East the queen. jack and seven OF
spades and the queen OF clubs.
At this point deciarer cashed
the king of hearts and East had
to let 20 Of q spade. The six of
hearts was played and won in

Now East was squeezed. Any
discard he made would give de-

If the queen of spades. instead
of a club, had been returned. you
can see that declarer would not
have had the needed entry into
his own hand, as that play would
have Knocked out the king OF

 Coolest Under Fire
 Always coolest under fire, Laval was understood to plan a vigorous defense of his policy in the Ethi- opian crisis, and particularly of his own course in negotiating with Sir Samuel Hoare of Great Britain the condemned and rejected peace pro- posals.
 It was understood also that the little premier intended to explain in detail recent French British con- versations regarding naval coopera- tjon in the Mediterranean.
 Lavars intended exposure of the French British naval negotiations, It was forecast, will include the sub- stance of arrangements completed during the last few weeks by the French and British general stafts.

Thirty-one years ago, lad of F, clad in rustic garments woven and made by his mother, stood in the vineyards surrounding his hurn- ble home in Greece, facing Ameri- ca. Few coins jingled in his pock- ct but clutched in firm grip was a steamship ticket, most cherished possession. That lad, friends, was Peter Nicholas Laskas, the man we of today recognize as the president and treasurer of the Laskas Motor Lines, Incorporated {. Peter N. Las- kas was born in Sparta, the cele- brated city of ancient Greece, June 14th, 1892, the son of Nicholas and Catherine (VorviS) I.askas .... His mother died when he was four years old, and his father, seven years later. Both parents are bur- jed under Sparta soil. Peter ate tended the village school, and after his studies, labored on the farm and in the vineyards. i. 1. He was obliged to leave school after his fathers death and went to work in an olive oil plant, where his dad had been foreman for years. In 1904 young Laskas boarded a freighter with a cousin, headed for America, the land across the sea ... They had purchased tickets for passage on a French liner, but this ship was damaged in, an accident, and the passengers, numbering about 300, were transferred to the freighter for the long voyage. Forty eight days were consumed in crossing the Atlantic ;. As soon as they had passed the custom authorities Pet- CTS cousin left him to go to New Jersey ... He has since died ... Peter spent ten weary days rowing about New York in search of enl- ployment. He finally found a job in a confectionery store where he earned seven dollars and board g month. He stuck to, this job for three years, attending school at night.
 From the Eastern Metropolis he went to Stanford, Conn, where some relatives resided ... :. He soon found work as a bus boy in a restaurant ... After two years he went to New Haven, where he work ed as @ waiter in another res- taurant. ;. In 1912 he came to Wa trebury and for i've years labored as a waiter in the Bristol Lunch, then on East Main street .... War time wages attracted him and for next two years he operated truck for the Scovill Manufacturing Com pany He and another Scovtll employe, William Laube, decided in 1919 to form a partnership, and with one truck they began hauling sand and gravel for contractors building state highways. :. In 1920 they landed a big contract with the United States Rubber Company transporting rubber and other nla- terial between Naugatuck and New York. They sold the old dump truck, purchased two new trucks, and hired other trucks, to carry out the provisions of their new contract .... Tn 1921 the partnership dis solved and Mfr.
