All the little people of the Green
Meadows and the Green Forest had
learned that the big black bird
which they had watched sailing and
sailing high in the blue, blue sky
was not hawk at all, but or Mistah
Buzzard, a friend of Unc' Billy Pos
sum, who had come up from way
down South. And when they learned
this there was great rejoicing, for
Unc' Billy Possum had said that
or Mistah Buzzard never harms
any one.
So all the little meadow and
forest people hurried over to the
tall dead tree in the Green Forest
where O. Mistah Buzzard delighted
to sit, and all were very polite to
him, especially the littlest ones, who
had been most frightened when they
mistook him for a hawk sailing in
the blue, blue sky.
Unc' Billy Possum introduced each
one as he arrived, and each hastened
to tell Or Mistah Buzzard how glad
they all were to welcome him to the
Green Meadows and the Green For
est. or Mistah Buzzard was just
as polite as they were, and bowed
his wrinkled, bald head to this one
and to that one in very grand way.
AS usual, Peter Rabbit was brim-
ming over with curiosity, and he
could hardly wait to be introduced

Answer: Bid four clubs. Mr..
Maier's bid relieves you of RESPONSE
blllty, so even three clubs would
show extra values. The jump to
tour clubs can mean only that you
have a long and absolutely solid
club suit.
Score 100 per cent for four clubs,
40 per cent for three clubs, nothing
for any other bid.

AS long as we're asked to fix the
blame, we cast one unanimous vote
for North. Souths bidding fairly
shrieked that he had big hand and
that he needed North'S assistance in
choosing between part score and
game. North at no time indicated
that he held anything but 13 ILL
assorted spot cards
It's true that North cannot quite
muster up free heart raise over
Vests one-spade overcall, but the
hand is so fine in support of hearts
that he should hope for a chance to
bid later on.
That chance is offered when South
doubles two clubs. South thereby
shows strong hand and North
should bid three hearts right over
Vests two spades. South would
then go to game
II North neglects this opportunity
and South still persists with another
double, North should bid four hearts
rather than three hearts. Norths
actual bidding would be sound if he
had about three small hearts in q
worthless hand.

JEWS IN
SPORTS
BY MoRR1s WIENER

Jewish initiates not only were
taking to these sports but had
been champions in their fields for
years.
About month ago our interest
in skiing was revived when we
saw some skiing exhibitions that
literally took our breath away.
The performances were superb.
Regardless of who was perform
ing in such scintillating fashion
against such magnificent winter
backdrops, it was superb. The
fact that the performer was Jew
ish lent an added spice to the
treat. At the time we saw this
we were in one of the worlds
largest department stores. We
were watching movie version of
the championship performances
of Hans exile from
his native Austria. After the
movie we were welcomed by the
expert himself who spoke of the
intricacies involved in his particu-
lar sport. Schneider, after learn
ing that we were a sportswriter
for the j. T. A, was particularly
helpful in his efforts to be of SER
vice to us
"The Jewish people in this
country do not take to winter
sports as they do in Europe. Here
many of the Jewish people live
in the big cities and very seldom
do they go out of their way to
indulge in skiing. 1 understand
that Jewish athletes excel in
many sporting affairs in America
but 1 have yet to see more than
a handful of our people who are
interested N skiing. If you ever
should come up to my skiing
ranch in New Hampshire I would
show you a new life"
