West opened the queen OF dia-
monds, South winning with the ace.
Declarer saw chance to make all
his trumps separately If he could
establish a cross-ruff, so immedi-
ately led his singleton club to set
the stage. When West played low,
South tried dummys king, but lost
(as more than half expected to
East's ace.
East saw what was coming 50 re-
turned his singleton trump, dummy
winning with the eight Now South
could count on making all of
dummy's f1ve trumps, plus three
ruffs In his own hand, and the dia-
mond ace. For the tenth trick he
might be able to make a long club
or the heart king.
Since there was no rush about
playing for the heart king, South
ruffed club in his own hand, re-
turned by rufhng a diamond to RUIZ
another club, ruffed another dia-
mond, then ruffed out East's last
club. On this trick West discarded
heart.
South next ruffed his last dia-
mond, thus cleaning up that suit.
Then he hopefully laid down
dummy's last trump, discarding a
low heart from his own hand. If
both opponents had followed, all
trumps would have been drawn, and
dummy's last club would have given
South his tenth trick.
The only chance now was to make
the heart king, but South was not
SO foolish as to lead the suit him
self. Instead he lead dummy's last
club. to let West ruff. Then West
had to begin the hearts, and South
was sure to take the last trick with
the heart king.

Schools May Avoid
Half Day Sessions

School heads announced today
that they will try TO avoid, If pos
sible. half day sessions in schools
in the Ypsilanti war industry area.
DR.. Eugene B. Elliott, state SUI
perintendent Of public instruction
indicated. however. that such
move here and in the Detroit war
industry areas might be necessary.
County School Commissioner Jul
Illus Haab said today that the half
day session problem would be left
TO the discretion Of the individ-
ual districts.
The possibility OF such a move
in Ypsilanti public schools has
been discussed. but no definite &C
ton is planned until school opens
in the fall. or until it is determined
that there will be an unusually
large increase. Registration fig
ures will be checked carefully be-
fore action is taken. In Ypsilanti
public schools there seems to be
more room in the grade schools
than in the high schools, accord
ing TO Wesley Dawson, secretary
of the board OF education.
To be Ready
To take care OF the influx, 1t
is expected that the new four room
addition to Spencer ScheeE will
be ready for the opening Of school
in the fall. During the past year
$50 students were accommodated
in the two rooms and basement
AND half day sessions were CON
Quoted for the beginners, first and
second graders. One group came
from s to 11:40 and the other
group from IL until $40. Four
teachers were in charge last year
and It is expected that at least six
will be needed in the fall.
The new addition will include
four classrooms. library and Law
atories. Construction has already
started on the building.
