II knoxville, Tenn, Dec. 81.
AA If you're going to under
stand IVA Tennessee Valley
Authority at all, you've got to get
it into your head first just where
the Tennessee Valley is.
The Valley" as they call it
down here, means the whole area
that drains into the meandering
Tennessee River, and that takes
in a lot of territory. Also, the
Tennessee River is a crazy river.
1t starts up in eastern Tennes-
see. Since its valley includes
rivers that run into the Tennes-
see, IVA really starts way back
east in Virginia and North Caro-
lima.
The Tennessee River itself ac-
tually gets started just above
Knoxville, then it heads down
through Chattanooga, toward New
Orleans. 1t misses the northwest
corner of Georgia by about a mile.
1t enters Alabama in the north
east corner, changes its mind
about going to New Orleans and
makes a big swing back toward
the north, and comes out of Ala
bama right at the northeast cor
ner Of Mississippi 1t really forms
the boundary of Mississippi for a
few miles, but never actually en-
tiers the state. 1t is swinging back
north now, you see, and has got
back into Tennessee again, only
now it's in western Tennessee. 1t
has decided it prefers the Ohio
river to the Gulf Of Mexico, so it
keeps right on going north, clear
across Tennessee and then Ken
lucky, till it pours into the Ohio
at Paducah, Ky.
TT never gets into the deep
= South, although its tributaries,
which form the Tennessee Valley
and hence IVA, do go about
third of the way down into
Mississippi and Alabama, and
catch a corner of Georgia.
Now, it seems that this whole
Tennessee Valley region, for a
good many years, has been in a
bad way because of erosion. Don't
think erosion is just some plati-
tudinous New Deal word either.
1t really is something actual: one
of those insidious things like T. B.

OPPORTUNIST SUCCEEDS AT BRIDGE

The same is true with many
other hands in which good play
will allow you to make a slam
which was not biddable. A good
player always will take plenty of
time to study a hand out be-
fore playing to the first trick
Let us look at today's hand.
North and South arrive at a
contract of six diamonds. You
can see that, if a spade is opened,
the contract will be DEBATED i'm
mediately.
However, declarer receives
fortunate opening, the deuce of
clubs, but still the contract is
not made unless North takes ad-
vantage of the opportunity given
him by his opponents. Therefore,
before playing to that first trick,
declarer should analyze the hand.
He should reason the hand out
along the following lines: West
has bid spades; undoubtedly he
holds the ace of this suit. 1t
will be impossible to try to estab-
lish the heart suit, because there
are not enough entries in dummy.
Therefore, the only hope to make
the contract is to find West with
both ace and queen of spades.
Most players would make the
mistake of discarding the deuce
of hearts on the ace of clubs, fig
uring they are getting rid of a los
ing a heart. True enough, they
are, but how about the losing
spades?
The proper play is to discard
the nine of spades on the ace Of
clubs and Immediately play a
small spade from dummy. West
has to go in with the queen Of

whose crops get worse and worse
each year, and the people get
poorer and poorer, and instead of
going forward they're going back
ward.
There are thousands of farmers
in this region whose cash income
is less than $50 a year. They live
in huts, and their land is so poor
it will hardly raise vegetables. If
something isn't done, there's moth
ing for their grandchildren to look
forward to but the relief rolls.

Erosion means that the soil is all

Today, all these Southern rivers
are muddy. But our early ex-
plorers recorded how clear and
beautiful the rivers were then.
That means that before white

with trees and shrubs which held

An Ode 10 a SCotchman

By Mrs. d. Peterson
Napoleon was a great man
He's known both here and there
Washington was a president
And Boone he killed a bear
Caesar did a thing or two,
Brutus he did better,
Horatious stood upon the bridge
And didn't get any wetter.
King Alfred learned to read
and write,
King Henry married 5 wives,
Some other bozo's on this earth
Led brave and daring livse.
But all of them rate nothing
Compared to a SchOtchman that
| know
Put him up beside Clark Gable
And that Scot would steal the show
You see this little Scotchman
Like VIM, Tell OF old
Is noted for his craftsmanship
His throws are strong and bold.
He picks him out a bozo.
What the name is doesn't matter,
Then he picks out a nice big stone
And then he lets him have 'er
So if upon the WORKS some day.
In the back you get a SOCK,
just look around for Scotty
And his ever present rock.
Then buy yourself a pop gun,
And even up, te-hee;
And when he isn't looking
Just give him one for me.
