West opens a diamond which de-
clarer wins with the ace. The very
first club lead discloses that East
holds a club stopper, and when
declarer shifts to spades two rounds
reveal that East also holds stop
per in that suit. With the heart
ace of the hand, declarer apparent
ly dare not surrender trick in
any other suit, so the temptation is
to lead the heart jack from dummy
hoping to find East with the ace or
queen. Since West has these cards,
however, this play will let him win
two tricks.
The point OF the hand is that,
with East counted for 10 black
cards. no one of which he can af-
ford to discard, decIarer can force
him to exhaust all of his red cards
by playing two more diamonds.
Then, being certain East no longer
has a heart to lead, South runs his
high clubs and throws East on lead
with the fifth round of that suit.
East will then have to lead a spade
away from his ten. giving dummy
three more spade tricks.

Uncle Ruy's Corner

A youth II years of age entered
New York City in the year 1903.
He had come from the village of
Peekskill, about 40 miles distant,
where his family lived. His pur-
pose was to seek his fortune"
The youths name was Peter
Cooper. He had been in the big
city before, in fact had been born
there, but his family had moved
away when he was very small boy. !.
To come back now was just about
the same as to enter completely
strange city.
Peter was one Of nine children,
and his father had trouble making
a living for so many. That was one

BoYkin Appointed
Executive Secretary
OF Jefferson Fete
Historiun-Commentutor
Will Plan Program
For 2OOth Anniversary

Edward BQykin Of Charlottesville,
Va, radio commentator on Ameri-
can history and author of many
books, has been appointed executive
secretary of the United States Com
mission for the Celebration of the
booth Anniversary of the Birth of
Thomas jefferson. Chairman of the
commission is Senator Glass and
vice chairman, representative Smith,
both of Virginia.
Mr.. Boykin. who has Just come to
Washington to take over his new
duties. has a big task on his hands.
Under the direction of the COM
mission, he must plan and put into
effect year long program, stretch
ing from ocean to ocean, in memory
of the author of the Declaration of
Independence and third President
of the United States. The year
1913, under the act of Congress
creating the commission, is to see
the work and ideals of Thomas JET
ferson spread broadcast throughout
the country.
Requires Volunteers.
This means, in the opinion of Mr.
Boykin, that there must be vast
program of volunteer work, in which
individuals, schools. colleges. patri-
otto. historical and civic societies
and associations will all have their
part. Congress has so far appro-
priated only $4,000 for the Federal
commission to spend on this work.
OF this sum $4,000 has been al
located to prepare and edit the COM
plete works and writings of Jeffer-
son. DR.. Julian Boyd, librarian of
Princeton University, who has been
appointed historian of the commits
sion. will have this work in hand
Another $4,000 has been set aside
for the preparation of the moving
picture, depicting the life of JEFF
ferSon. This is intended for distri-
button throughout the country and
particularly for use in the schools.
Celebration Opens April Is.
The celebration of the bi-cen-
tennial of jefferson will officially
get under way April 10, when the
white marble memorial to the great
Virginian, located on the Tidal
Basin, will be officially dedicated.
1t is MI. Boykin's thought, how
ever, that this is to be only be-
ginning of jefferson celebrations
in many parts of the country, with
climax late in the year.
Jefferson is more alive today
than ever before MI Boykin said
yesterday, discussing plans for the
celebration. Americans are fight
ing now to preserve the very things
that jefferson laid down. He was
the greatest thinker that America
has ever produced. He was a de-
voice Of freedom. Anything that
sought to tie men down, he was
against"
MI Bovkin added that the pur-
pose of the bi-centennial celebra-
