Today's hand represents an un-
usual safety play. In order to make
his contract declarer was forced to
refuse illnesses. The play was as
follows:
The opening club lead was won by
the king and heart returned. De-
clarer won in dummy, led low
spade, went up with the ace, led a
low diamond. went up with the ace
and played the queen of diamonds.
East won with the king and played a
heart, but it was of no avail. De-
clarer won with the ace in dummy
and discarded his losing heart on the
Jack OF diamonds.
It will be noted that If declarer
had taken the spade f1nesse, the
heart ace would have been knocked
out before the diamonds could be
established for a discard. And If he
had taken the diamond finesse, West
would have ruffed the second dia-
mond lead with the king of spades
and would also have been able to
cash heart trick.

Snarks sometimes kill more fish
than they can eat. This is believed
TO be one reason why the pilot fish
often swims behind sharks. It wants
to eat the food which is left over!
The pilot fish is only foot or SO
long. Its custom of following
sharks has been observed MANY
times and explains the name-saii-
ors saw the little fish in the posi-
ton Of q pilot to the sharks! De-
spite the fact that 1t stays close to
sharks the pilot fish is seldom If ever
eaten by the big fish.
Like sharks, pilot fish often fol-
low ocean vessels. When garbage
10 thrown overheard there is a good
= supply Of food for any fish which
, may be near. It seems that pilot
fish also eat little animals known
as barnacles which often gather on
the bottom Of ship.
Another interesting fish is the
wolf fish, also called "sea wolf."
1t is found near the coasts of Nor
way, Greenland and Iceland and In
the North Pacific.
Wolf fish are noted as being

ports of them attacking people
