Take My Word for It
By Fronk Colby
Let's Learn a New Word

The word Indonesia has caused
much speculation among my read
ers since the word first hit the
headlines several weeks ago. Ia
donesia is not on my map; what
does the word mean? What kind
of people are the Indonesians3"
These are typical Of the many
questions that come in every mail.
To begin with, Indonesia is a
term which rafferty, loosely desfg-
mates the group of islands usually
known as the East Indian archi.
pelago. OF late, however, the
term has been restricted to the
islands of Dutch East Indies which
compose the so-called Indonesian
Republic: Sumatra, Java, Ma
dura, etc.
The 1ndonesian people probably
sprang from a mixture of Poly
nesian and Monogoloid immigrants,
together with Duaks, Battaks,
Lampongs, and other Malayan
groups.
The real purpose of this article
is to discuss the origin of the term
1ndonesia, and to give It's literal
meaning; and in so doing we shall
learn about some other equally In
teresting names which should be
in our vocabularies.
Indonesia is formed from Indo-
Indian EAST 1ndian),' plus
-nesia, island region" from the
Greek nesos, island; hence, re
gion of East Indian islands"
The term Polynesia is from the
Greek polys, many" plus -nesia;
hence, region of many islands"
Micronesia designates the almost
countless islands of the Pacific
east of the Philippines, such as
the Marianas, Caroline, Marshall
and other groups, scene of some of
the bitterest fighting in our war
with Japan. Micronesia is formed
from micro, very small" plus
-nesia; hence, region. of very
small islands"
Melanesia designates the Pacific
islands of New Caledonia. New
Hebrides, Solomon, Admiralty,
Bismark, Fiji. etc. Melanesia is
from the Greek melasanos, black"
plus -nesia; hence, region OF
black (peopled) islands"
Now the people of these regions
are known as Indonesians, Poly
nesians, Micronesians, and Mela-
nesians. However. they are loose
ly regarded as one racial group
which is called Amphinesian, from
the Greek amphi-, both kinds;
plus messiah, "of island region":
hence people Of the various ga
ciflc) island regions"
Businessmen, as well IS ster1o-
graphers, have difficulty with the
words-affect and effect. Mr.. Col
by has written a leaflet. C-1 which
will put you straight about their
usage. =

dressed envelope to Frank Colby.

1Goren on Bridge

Opening lead: Jack OF hearts.
While there appears to be no req
ord of card games in medieval
Spain, I am at the moment en-.
gagged in research for the purposetof
establishing my theory that Ter
#quemada must have been a bridge
player. am confident that I know
why he devised those fiendish tor
lures. 1t was to provide q fitting
punishment for those who reached
prematurely for tricks when de-
clarer was taking an apparently
losing finesse into partners hand.
observe how an improvident ges-
ture by West in today's hand
shaped the course of events and
turned what might have been a
brilliant bit of strategy into a dis
NAL failure. South's aggressive
bidding landed his side in a game
contract at no-trump and East ex-
erclsed outstanding restraint in per-
hitting the final contract to rest
undisturbed. Perhaps he had fore
bodings of what was to take place,
West opened the jack of hearts
and East won with the ace. Since
it was quite evident that West could
have no entry cards East saw that
the heart suit must be abandoned.
1t was apparent, too, that any hope
to defeat the contract must rest ON
the chance that declarer had ex-
actly two clubs. So as the first
step IN the campaign to shut out
the dummy, East returned the king
of spades. 1t was his intention. df
course, to duck the first club in the
hope that declarer would repeat the
flnesse and be forever disconnected
from the North hand.
Declarer returned to his hand
with the king of diamonds and led
the 10 of clubs. East, who had
planned early, was not to be caught
IN brown study and had the fiys
OF clubs ready to play as promptly
as the seven was played from
dummy. Unfortunately, as that card
fell from his hand, West refle&y
reached for the trick. Declarer. re-
lying on Vests sincerity, went up
with the ace on the next round and
brought down the house. :;
1t is not my province to take IN
matters of department at the bridge
table, but 1t does seem to me that
the premature reaching for tricks
ought to be punished with far more
severity than the foot-fault in ten
mis- or beating the gun in the 100
yard dash.
