BY FRANK COLBY.
It's Hard to Believe.

@. I could hardly believe my
eyes when I looked up the word
baton" My dictionary gives as
first choice the pronunciation BAT
un"! That will not say.-D. B.
A. Baton is a French loan-word
that has long been kicked around
by the dictionaries, both British and
American.
To begin with, the French spell
the word baton with a circumfiex
accent mark Gan inverted W over
the "a" which gives it the "ah"
sound. The 20" is naSaliZed, thus:
bah-TAW
The French nasal vowels are not
retained in the American pronun-
citation. The prevailing American
pronunciation of baton, then, is
either buh-TON, or baton with
the "a" as fiat as in bat" and
ton" rhyming with con, don" An
almost-FTench pronunciation, "ba-
TAW (N)"-flat ais heard oc-
casionally on the air, but it is
conscious affection.
Despite the fact that ba-TON cor
buh-TON) is the standard American
pronunciation, you'll not find it in
Merriam Webster's, Funk and Wag-
nails, Macmillan's, Winston's or the
New Century These list the
Frenchified "ba- -TAW(N)" and the
British "BAT-un."
Why it is listed at all is as battling
as the dictionaries fondness for
those other un-American curios,
"SHIF-on" for chiffon" and rec
VAIL-yi' for the bugle call reveille.
Correct American is: baton or
buh-ton. If you want to appear
long haired" say: ba-TAW (N).
But don't go around saying BAT
un.'

Opening lead: Nine of hearts.
While the location of certain key
cards may be inferred from oppos-
ing bids and while declarer's plan
Of attack should not be formed with
out giving full consideration to the
auction, nevertheless if a hand can
be made regardless of the location
of particular cards declarer should
guard himself against surprises due
to adverse errors of bidding, or de-
lberate attempts to deceive.
The bidding in all respects but
one meets with our approval. That
one respect is East's third-hand bid.
An opening on hand such as East's
is carrying the light third-hand
opening to extremes. Those who
feel the irresistible urge to bid in
third position ought not to stretch
by more than half trick.
Against the three no-trump con-
tract West opened the nine of hearts.
The declarer played low from
dummy, East quite properly per-
mitted the nine to ride, driving out
declarer's king. The deuce of dia-
monds was then returned and West
lost no time in climbing up with
the ace and the heart continuation
netted the defense four more tricks.
South was horror stricken. What
right had West to have the ace Of
diamonds when East was presum-
ably marked with the card by his
bid?" North was sympathetic and
East displayed the smile of one who
has swallowed a canary.
The truth of the matter is that
South had been guilty of an
eggregious error in the play to the
first trick. BY the mere play of
the queen of hearts at trick one the
defense would have been rendered
helpless, regardless of the Location
of the ace of diamonds. If East does
not win the trick declarer will have
another stopper in the suit. If East
does take the trick, as he must, he
will be unable to continue hearts
because the 10 would become win
ner. Naturally the lead of the nine
shows that East has the jack.
Declarer, Of course, had been
lulled into a false sense of safety
by needlessly taking it for granted
that East held the ace of diamonds
1t may not be vice to trust your
opponents a little but it really pays
to keep your powder dry.

dispute, which may become a full
sized blowup, seemed to be whether
a public information officer should
act as a press agent, CLOSING over
deficiencies if necessary, or use his
office to give correspondents and
the public a complete picture.
Mr.. Hochstetter, a native of Pitts
burgh, Pa, and a former Washing
ton newspaperman and wartime
Owl officers in Turkey, said his
personal relations with his Russian
chief we're cordial, but that II have
found that the attitude Of Col.
Sergeichik and his advisers had
made it increasingly difficult for me
to carry out my responsibilities as
see them"
1T is my view that a public in
formation officer of UNRRA is an
international public servant charged
with the two-fold responsibility of
explaining all aspects of the UNRRA
program to the beneficiaries and of
accounting for UNRRA's activities
to the contributors" he said.
Once before, after a sharp disa-
greement over policy, Col. Sergei-
chik had requested Mr.. Hochstetter
himself to ask tor reassignment
The latter refused.

In the senatorial race Gov.

his victory was assured.
BulWarked by 35 of Baltimore

the situation in the State.
