finessing on the first round.
So finesse he did. after leading

back the club 4 to the j. When
the K took that he was licked by
Vests two set-up spades. Hard
luck" was his verdict when he
learned the club X could have been
dropped by playing the A.
There was no hard luck about
il. merely bad bridge. He was in
a spot in which he could afford to
lose to the club X If East had it,
but absolutely could not afford to
let West gain the lead. In order to
reduce that hazard to the lowest
possible proportions, he should
have played the club A on the
first round. II it turned out then
that East had the X. he need not
have worried, for a dangerous
spade could not have been re-
turned. and he therefore would
have been assured of four club
tricks, for a total Of ten. And
with West holding the singleton
X, he would have taken IL tricks

Twenty-Five displays Of compare

and grouped together in an exhibit

public for one month beginning
Saturday. Jan. %. according to DR..
Robert T. HIATT. director.
The exhibition is described by DR..
HIATT rs inter-racial and inter-cul-
tural because 1.-THE lines OF cleav-
age in human society are due more
to cultural than to racial differ
ences."
The displays show the nature OF
the major races and the character
istics which mark them. Some OF
the displays are arranged in series
and sequence. Some emphasize diff
ferences while others stress similar
ity OF capacity. "Anthropologists
have yet TO find races OF mankind
growing horns or snow white
wings" says DR.. HIATT.
Long before memory or historic
record, mankind spread over the
world. He went abroad from Asia
into the hot, bright lands of Africa,
Australia and the Philippines, and
was black. He went up to the
regions OF long SHOWS around the
Baltic, and grew pale. He spread
across Bering Strait and down the
full length Of the Americas. and
here remained the yellow-brown
common TO most peoples Of the
earth.
Lacking communication or ex-
tensive commerce, early mans
speech, his habits and even his
body developed in isolation into
many regional types. The differ
ences in languages became so pro-
nounced between peoples that much
history is written in terms OF strife
between the peoples who had
changed TO such a degree that they
no longer understood one another"
AS director Of the Cranbrook In
stitute of Science, DR.. HIATT was
urged 10 supply a scientific analy-
sis OF the races Of mankind in sim
pie graphic exhibition form that
would be understood and appre-
ciated easily by all races and per-
sons Of all ages. The resulting ex-
hibition is said TO be one OF the
most dramatic presentations which
has yet been produced for use in
race education and one Of the FIRST
TO use visual materials.

CHICAGO-(ANP) - Common
law marriages and the way IL de-
'prives those principals of the bene-
Ats of social security was brought
out this week by member OF the
social security board in pointing out
that proof of marriage, legitimacy.
and proof Of age are important in
struments in establishing entitle-
ment TO social security benefits.
StreSsing a need for churches,
fraternities and public agencies to
teach their followers, clients, or
the necessity Of conform
ing TO the laws OF the state and
nation, he said, these social condi-
tions and customs which have
grown up in many communities are
great hindrance to the effective
operations OF the Social Security
act and its purpose. Institutions in
terested in the Improvement OF So
cial, economic, or moral conditions
should consider it a responsibility
to teach the people the advantage
Of living within the law.

to. Cogan jumped out of the car
like a iumpingiack, bucklcd on two
big belts of ammunition, grabbed
his rifle. and was ready to go.
STAYED ON JOB
He stayed with us clear through
that afternoon. When Capa went
farthest forward to get his pictures
of surrendering Germans, Cogan
hoped along behind him with his
loaded rifle, as though to protect
him. Now and then l would notice
his face, and instead of being afraid
he was as pleased as child at a
state fair.
OF course what he did will seem
asinine to any combat soldier who
would give fortune to keep out
of combat instead of seeking it. Yet
the willingness to do anything that
is asked of you, and the eagerness
TO experience things that aren't
asked of you, make a real trooper.
When we got to camp that night
Capa said:
THAT Cogan, he's one OF the
finest soldiers I've met in this
army" Righto.
