That sure thing Is better than
one that is probable is too obvious
to require any comment. yet it
might have been offered as sug-
gestion to South in the play of to-
days hand.
East opened the bidding with one
club and South elected to bid two
spades. An alternate course would
have been to double, but am in
| clined to side with South's choice.
The hand is almost certainly going
| to play in spades, and the only real
problem is as to the number OF
| tricks which should be contracted
| for. If partner has some trick-tak-
| ing power a game is likely. If he
has nothing he is permitted to pass
| this jump overcall. 1t is to be noted
that, contrary to the belief of many,
a Jump overcall of an advance OPEN
ing bid is not force. 1t Is very
strong invitation and should be
made with a hand that can take
about eight tricks itself North held
normal trump support, and two
kings, so naturally gave partner q
raise and the four-spade contract
became routine.
West, opened the eight Of clubs.
East won with the ace and returned
the queen Trumps were extracted
in two rounds and declarer was
faced with the realization that ace
of diamonds must be with East, who
had made the opening bid.
Recognizing that 1t was futile to
attempt to win a trick with the
king by direct lead, he felt that
his only chance was that the open
ing bidder held both the ace and
queen of diamonds. He therefore
went over to the king of hearts and
led low diamond to the jack. East
played the nine, declarer the jack.
which was smothered by Vests
queen. The diamond return gave
the defense two more tricks, de-
feating the contract.
Declarer had not played the hand
very thoughtfully. The proper pro-
cedure when trumps were out, was
to play the ace and king of hearts
and ruff out the remaining heart.
Dummy should then be entered with
the nine of spades and the 10 of
clubs played East will cover with
the jack and declarer should refuse
to trump, discarding the deuce of
diamonds instead. East is now on
lead and has the unhappy choice of
leading a club and giving declarer
a ruff and a discard or leading a
diamond and establishing dummy's
king.
1t now becomes apparent why the
dummy's third heart should be
ruffed. If declarer fails to do this.
East would be able to exit with a
heart when he obtains the lead,
i forcing the declarer to ruff and
placing the burden of further leads
on South's shoulder.

T axe My Word for 1t
By Frank Colby
How Do You Pronounce the
Word Divorce?


@. In our speech class discus
sion has arisen over the proper pro-
nunciation of the noun divorce.
My dictionary gives it as "dee-vore-
say but my students have re-
belled, saying, mo one pronounces
the word that way!" Now the
question is, should I insist on dee
ore-SAY"?-Mrs. H. de G..
A. Let's look at the word for
moment. In French. divorcee is a
feminine adjective (une femme di-
vorcee, "a divorced woman'D, The
French pronunciation Is: dee-vawr-
SAY.
Now in English divorce Is never
used as an adjective-it is a noun
only, meaning "a divorced woman
Most American dictionaries pro-
nounce divorce as "di-vOre-SAY"
or "di-vawr-SAY," but again the
standard American usage is quite
different The prevailing pronun-
ciation is: di-VORE-see. Also, but
less frequently: di-vore-SEE.
The "see" pronunciation Of the
third syllable is in accordance with
the pronunciation of such English
nouns as addreSSee, consignee, ref
ugee, employee (and that rather
cruel word amputee, which I should
like to see purged from the Ian
guage), inductee, trainee, etc.
Note-According to French
speaking friend who has just re-
turned to this country after long
stay in her native France, the word
divorcee is now being used col
loquially as a noun by educated
Frenchmen. This usage is rather
new and doubtless has been in
huenced by the English use of d.
vorcee as a noun)
Mr.. Colbys leaflet C-12 explains why
some people use the indefinite article AN"
before words beginning with h such
as IAN historical" He also explains why
1t is correct to use the indefinite article
"a before such words. To obtain COPY,

addressed envelope to Frank Colby, care

Reuther, president of the CIO
United Automobile Workers de-
clared today industry could increase
its total wage and salary bill 20
per. cent without one penny in
crease in the price index Of our
economy"
Addressing the Wisconsin State
CIO Convention, Mr.. Reuther de-
clared he was basing his figures on
estimated earnings by industry this
year of $4,000 10000 before taxes
or $17,50O, 100000 after taxes.
He said 1--WE still prefer price cuts
Ito wage increases) but Congress

National Association Of Manufac-

have made it clear that we are not

Attacks Profit Figure.
In lieu of the wage increase, Mr..
Reuther said industry could cut
prices 8 per cent across the board
and still make $500, 100000 In
profits after taxation.
Even this figure would represent
the largest annual profit ever made
by industry before the war, the
UAW leader said.
Referring to the prospects for
general price cutback, Mr.. Reuther
declared I'VE know there isn't a
ghost of a chance with the stupid,
narrow economy which is now find
ing expression in the Waldorf-As-

Turning to the local picture, Mr..

Mail Pickup Plane
Crashes; Two Killed
By the Associofed Press

WELLSBURG, w. Va, Dec. 6 -
The pilot and flight mechanic of
an All-American Aviation airmail
pickup plane we're killed today when
their craft crashed miles east of
here after snatching up a load of
mail on the fly.
They were identified as Capt.
Thomas Bryan, 80, of Pittsburgh,
the pilot, and Berger Bechtel, "a,
Johnston, Pa.
Earl Smith, radio mechanic at
Franklin, near the scene Of the
crash, said the plane seemed to
buckle just after it made a pickup.
1t had hooked the load of mail but
had not yet pulled it up into the
cabin.
The nose Of the plane dipped, Mr..
Smith said, and the pilot jettisoned
his gasoline in what appeared to
be an attempt to regain altitude.
The gasoline ignited as it hit the
ground but the twin-engined plane
did not burn and the mail was re-
covered.
At Pittsburgh, H. R. Bailey, the
pickup firms vice-president in
charge of operations, said All-Amer-
lean had grounded two similar
planes at Cincinnati and Pittsburgh
pending investigation of the crash.
The plane was making a routine
flight between Pittsburgh and Gin
cinnati.

Senators Pepper and Holland,
both Florida Democrats, along with
Gov. Millard Caldwell of Florida and
Senator Johnson, Democrat, of Colo
RADIO met the President at Naples
and escorted him to Everglades City.
The Florida Senators also spoke at
the park dedication.
On the platform with the Presi-
dent and other prominent partici-
pants were four Seminole leaders
whose people have lived in the
Everglades for centuries. In this
group were William Mckinley Os-
ceola and his sons, Cory and Mike,
descendants of the great Indian
chief, and Ingram Billie, the tribes
medicine man.
The Seminoles met the President
on his arrival and presented him
with rainbow-hued cotton shirt,
made of 5000 pieces of quilted ma
terial, and sent buckskin handbag
to Mrs. Truman by the President.
President Truman, whose 15-
minute speech was broadcast was
introduced by Secretary of the In
terror Krug who accepted the park
for the Nation from Gov. Caldwell.
The park, eventually intended to
embrace more than a million acres,
is wildlife sanctuary and the 18th
link in the park system.
Declaring the park system "a
clear expression of the idealism Of
the American people" the Presi-
dent described the areas as the
peoples parks and added that
most Of them are ours today be-
cause there were Americans many
years ago who exercised vision,
patience and unselflsn devotion in
the battle for conservation.
Our parks, however" the Presi-
dent stressed, ARE but one part of
the national effort to conserve our
natural resources. Upon these re-
sources, our life as nation de-
pends. Our high level of employ
ment and our extraordinary pro-
duction are being limited by scar
cities in some items of our natural
wealth. This is the time to de-
velop and replenish our basic re-
sources"
| accomplishing this same thought,
the President said that the wise
use of our natural resources" is a
stimulant to world order and world
peace and he warned that "if we
wish this Nation to remain pros
porous, if we wish it still to be the
home of the free we can have it So
But if we fail to heed the lesson of
other nations which have permitted
their natural resources to be wasted
and destroyed, then we shall reap a
sorry harvest"
Farmland, water, minerals, for
ests, all must be conserved, the
President asserted as he warned the
Nation to be on guard against de
structive" influences.
1--WE have to remain constantly
vigilant to prevent raids by those
who would selfishly expoit our com.
mon heritage for their private gain,
he said.
The President spoke after lunch
at the Everglades City Rod and Cur
Club with Florida offlcialdom anc
others in the list Of IS guests. Stroll
