7 axe My Word for 1t
BY FRANK COLBY
FoOt-Feet.

OOt-T CGk.
@. My English class will be CRATE
ful for another of your easy-to-
understand discussions of the cor
rect use of foot-feet. We find moth
ing ON it in our textbooks Mrs.
B. D.
Answer: When the millennium ar
rives, perhaps we shall have text
books that will teach us a little
useful knowledge about speaking
and writing our language, instead
of being obsessed with the Latin
lied incomprehensibilities of that
medieval monster called English
grammar
Meanwhile, this column will keep
on trying to make the path of
English usage little less rugged
for teachers, students and all the
other readers of this good news
paper.
Rule: When measurement mod
lfieS or describes q noun (acts as an
adjective), use the form foot, thus:
A 6-foot ladder.
A 2-foot-wide table.
Also:
A 6-inch pipe.
A 100-yard dash.
A 2-mile race.
Otherwise, use the plural forms
without the hyphen, thus:
The ladder is feet long.
In the expression, HE is a six
footer," the noun "six-footer" fol-
lows the familiar pattern as in six
shooter, forty-niner, two-decker,
quarter-miler, third-grader, second
grader, second-rater, three-bagger,
etc.

We continue today upon our sight
seeing tour through the district Of
unusual safety plays. We have
many times made the observation
that when a hand appears to be
veritable laydown, that is the time
to inquire into the question Of what
accidents might possibly upset the
applicant. If there is such a possi-
bility, then declarer should try to
find safety play that will take care
of him should the emergency arise.
This will frequently involve sacri-
ficing an overtrick But when safety
is being sought we must usually
abandon the maximum as our goal.
In today's hand South became de-
clarer at a contract of four hearts,
and when the dummy was spread he
regretted that he had not contracted
to take all the tricks. He immedi-
ately led trump to his queen, and
followed with the king, receiving q
rude jolt when East did not follow.
Declarer then started on the clubs,
but West ruffed the second round of
that suit, reasoning that the de-
clarer probably had no more than
two clubs, and followed with
trump. Declarer was obliged to lose
two more spade tricks and three
diamond tricks, being held to seven
tricks on hand that could easily
have been cinched for IL or IL.
Had this hand been played In a
duplicate, in which overtricks are
important. declarer's tactics could
not be criticized, but since this was
rubber bridge, 80 points was little
enough premium to pay for COM
plete insurance. After all, trumps
do sometimes break Al, and the
way to protect against such break
Is to give up trump trick at once.
while declarer still retained control
OF the hand. After ruffing the OPEN
ing diamond lead, declarer should
play low heart and pass 1t COM
pletely. West will win, but what
can he return? Declarer is then in
a position to draw all the trumps
and run the clubs, which will give
him II tricks if he wishes to play
for complete safety, or he may take
time out to ruff another diamond,
using the jack of clubs and the ace
of spades for entries to his hand.
This will produce II tricks.
The early concession of a trick
would have been very profitable
| investment.
