West opened the queen OF spades,
dummy winning with the ace. Even
under other circumstances South
might have found dificulty in dis
posing OF his spades. The best
possible break would be 4-3, so that
even if South rutfed one spade in
dummy he could not expect to run
another safely unless he could ex-
tract the trumps held by his op-
ponent with only three spades. But
the bidding warned South that the
spades would break So at best, so
that not even one run would be safe.
He therefore planned to transfer
the rufus from the spade suit to
the clubs. Hence he returned
spade to his king and led third
spade, discarding club from
dummy instead OF rutdng. West, on
holding the third round OF spades
hastily shifted to the king Of clubs,
but South won with the ace OF
clubs and led his last spade, dis
carding dummy's last club.
1t was then safe for South to
ruff his two losing clubs in dummy,
surrendering one diamond In addi-
tion to the two spade tricks already
lost. Note that South would have
lost his contract II he had at
tempted to ruff even one Of his
losing spades East would have
overruffed and South would still
have three losers in the minor suits.

LONDON, Nov. 4 - With

Egypt Is swelling rapidly toward
the crisis of what may be the de-
cisive engagement in the strue-

This is no time for prophecy

the belief that he Is aiming at

corps.
VITAL POWER
These steel monsters are the
Nazi marshal's locks of Samson.
Once he is shorn Of them, his
strength will be lare~:y reduced.
True, if Montgomery's drive
goes well-and it appears to be
proceeding satisfactorily thus
far-we may expect sensational
developments.
One of these is likely to be
desperate effort by Hitler to-
save his servant by rushing air
rcinforccments to him.
And il may be assumed that
the Allied High Command has
not just thrown Montgomery in
to this whirlpool and left him to
sink or swim without further
aid.
However, the battle still Is in
its early stages and we need to
see more before we start count
ing chickens.
What has happened Is this:
Montgomery suddenly lung an
infantry attack preceded by
heavy bOmbardment from artil-
lery and the air and followed by
tanks - against one Of the
strongest points in Rommels left
flank.
Such a frontal assault Is one
Of the most difficult operations
in warfare. 1t is necessary for
the Infantry to lead the way be-
cause it would be suicidal to
throw tanks directly against
heavy artillery before the troops
had broken the trail.
The ferocity Of the British at
tack resulted in q break through
on a front of some 1000 yards.
There was bitter hand-to- hand
fighting among strong Axis po-
sitions.
STEEL MONSTERS
Rommel rushed fleet of
tanks into action In an effort to
stem the advance, but the Allied
Air Force, which presumably in
cluded many American war
planes, smashed the concentra-
ton and sent those tanks which
were not destroyed rushing for
safety.
Montgomery had chosen this
strong sector for his attack be-
cause the ground was suitable
for tanks. His tactics were re-
warded when the infantry fin
ally wrested Tel Ell Akakir-the
hill of the wicked-from the en-
envy. This strategically import
ant ridge and the firmer Ter
rain about 1t are better adapt
ed to tank maneuvers than the
shifting sands In other sectors.
Naturally, with this increase
In freedom of movement for ar
mored forces, a big tank battle
developed.
This is precisely the situation
which Montgomery is aiming to
create. AS already Indicated, his
object is not to drive Axis fore
es back, but to catch them and
utterly destroy them.
Should things 60 we'll with
the Allied attack, a break
through may develop into flank
movements which will result i'm
the enlightenment and annihila-
ton of large forces of the enemy
unless Rommel can avoid such
traps.
Here we shouldn't forget that
the Nazi marshal is one of the
shrewdest captains in the war.
You can't say that he Is beaten
until you have his scalp actually
at your belt.

S.. marshaPs office under the direc- tion O. Cliff Yeoman L, E Col lins. Lorenson was given his oath by Commander J. Perry, naval air station.
 During the last war, because of the expense of recruiting in such large area as Alaska with so proportionately small popula- tion, there were no navy recruit ing offices established. The per mission gwen here to open the recruiting office is the first of it's kind, and the only one in Alaska.
 Although the local office has had applications from as far a. way as Fairbanks they are not enabled to pay transportation here for the medical examination. The expense must be borne by the applicant.
