Troublesome Tvinz

Crevice and crevasse are similar
IN meaning, but unlike In pronun-
citation. A crevice Is narrow crack
or split. Pronounce is: KREV-iss.
A crevasse Is deep fissure in a
glacier or snow field. Accent the
second syllable, thus: kruh-VASS.
Eminent and imminent should be
carefully distinguished. Eminent
means "of high place or degree"
as, an eminent statesman. Pro-
nounce it: EM-i-nnt. Imminent
means CLOSE at hand; threatening
to occur as, another strike seems
imminent: in imminent danger.
Say: IM-i-n'nt.
| Genius and genus are closely
akin, but the words should not be
confused Genius designates extraor-
binary intellectual or inventive
power; also a person of unusual
talent, as: Einstein, the genius of
the quantum theory. Pronounce it:
JEEN-yuss. The word genus means,
"a class or group" as the cow Is
of the genus Bos. Say: JEE-nuss.
Many such word pairs are discussed In

Opening lead, king of hearts.
The sirens of bridge are the
tenace positions. The ace-queen
and king Jack nave a strange fasci-
nation and have lured many a con-
tract mariner to his destruction by
inducing illnesses, where other meth
DDS would produce happier results.
Many of these disasters could be
avoided If players would change
their attitude toward the finesse.
They should look upon a finesse not
as an effort to capture an adverse
card but as means of gaining a
| trick. In other words. when you
are flnessing to an ace-queen you
must not consider that you are try
ing to capture the king Rather you
are trying to win a trick with the
queen.
Lest any of my readers be Of
| Tended by a dissertation so ele-
mentary in its nature, let me hasten
to offer today's hand as an illustra-
ton Of an optical illusion that beset
a player of more than average tai
ent. The final contract of four
spades, which is actually laydown.
was really a steal, perpetrated
against pusillanimous East. When
West took his life in his hands to
overcal at the level OF two his
courage should have been accorded
greater recognition than a mere
single raise East should undoubted-
ly have jumped to four hearts,
whereupon West would have been in
position to realize that sacrifice
bid would not be too expensive. East
explained his timidity on the ground
that he was vulnerable, but so was
his partner, and consequently the
tWo-heart bid must be sound.
The king of hearts was led and
ruffed by declarer. Two rounds OF
trumps cleared up that suit and
then the 10 of diamonds was
I finesSed. East won the jack and
returned heart and declarer now
f1nessed the queen of diamonds. The
king won and a heart took de-
clarer's last trump. Dummy was
entered with the ace of diamonds
and jack of clubs finessed. This
! lost to the queen and school was
out. The usual complaints about
the infamous luck that made three
illnesses lost. filled the air.
The hand could have been rem
dereo foolproof by simple arith-
metic. Five spade tricks, one dia-
mond thick. two club tricks and
two diamond ruffs in dummy. No
matter how the adverse clubs were
distributed declarer could afford to
. lose to both the ace and queen and
still have two tricks for himself
: This would provide a discard of
,; one of dummy's diamonds and de-
| clarer could afford to lose one dia-
mond trick.
After trumps are exhausted the
i proper play Is a club Immediately
g If declarer elects to lead the king
/. he will actually make five odd. But
let us assume he leads a small one.
: West wins and shifts to a diamond
East wins. What can he lead9
}. Another heart. Declarer ruffs and
. one more club lead establishes that
!; suit, and the remaining diamond is
: discarded from dummy. Where a
hand can be made without the
, hazard of flnesse 1t is usually
good policy to play it that way.

shorts of lesser quality bearing
