T axe Ny Word for 1t

Craig: You have emphasized the
short 20" (as in Polly in polio and
poliomyelitis. Yet, in the picture,
Sister Kenny" all the actor use
the long 90 as in folio. Please dis
cuss.-M. G.
Answer-Poliomyelitis is from the
Greek combining form polio, "gray.'
1t denoes the gray matter OF t;,e
brain or spinal cord. All diclio.-
aries known to me, including the
medical dictionaries, show only the
short co. in the first syllable, max
ing it rhyme with doll thus:
POLICE e-oh; and: Police oh
MY-ee-LY' 'tiss. However, polio
myelitis, and its contraction polio.
are relatively new terms to most of
us; and the correct pronunciation
apparently has not jelled, SO to
speak.
If and when "POE-lee-oh" pre-
walls in American usage dndeed.
it may already prevaiD. we and the
dictionaries will have to accept it.
Meanwhile, we can say only that
the long co. has no dictionary
sanction.
South Bend: My friend and
have an argument. Does one wear
or carry" a purse?-D. S.
AnsWer-Either is correct, al
though wear is seldom heard. Mer-
riam Webster's gives this as one of
the definitions of the verb to wear:
"To bear; to carry on or as on the
person" However, since women's
purses today are borne in the hand
or tucked under the arm, carry Is
the more logical word.

Opening lead: Queen of spades.
Players holding distribution of
1853 are frequently heard to re-
mark, Partner. I had such wonder
full distribution for no-trump that l
thought I'd stretch a point to give
you a raise" They are somewhat
misguided. The truth of the matter
is that hands of that distribution
are so seriously handicapped that
they are frequently not good for
anything and if game is to be scored
the shortest possible trip, that is the
one via nine tricks, must be essayed.
The best no-trump distribution is
not 1888. BY far odds the best is
a solid six-card suit tor longer and
three aces on the side There are a
great many players who simply will
not permit partner to play hand
at no-trump if they have a six-card
suit. Observe the case recorded today.
West opened with one spade and
North overcalled with two hearts.
South, buoyed up by partners over
call, naturally had visions of game
and tried two no-trump. There are
many players who would have gone
all the way to three with his hand,
but the lack of a diamond stopper
was natural deterrent to such ac-
ton. North's rebid of three hearts
is in our opinion not good tactics.
He has the type of hand that will
develop well at no-trump and he
should chance a raise to game. South
realized that his hand could not be
expected to produce sufficient tricks
at hearts because of his barren dis
tribution, and since partner did not
appear to like no-trump, he checked
out of the auction,
BY fine cooperative defense, the
part-Score contract was actually de-
feated. The queen of spades was
opened and not covered, West play
ing the encouraging six. The jack
of spades was continued and again
not covered. At this point, West
made very thoughtful discard. He
did not complete the echo, but
played the nine of spades, suggest
ing to partner that he did not wish
any more leads in that suit. 1t was
important to establish damon.
tricks before the king of clubs vas
lost. East obediently shifted to the
eight of diamonds. West won with
the ace and returned the queen.
Declarer subsequently took the
club finesse and when it failed went
down one on his bid. He could have
fulfilled the contract by not attempt
ing the club finesse. Running out
all his trumps, he could have placed
West in an impossible position at
the end where a diamond throw-in
would have compelled West to lead
into dummy's A-Q of clubs. But this
same end play would have been
available to South at no-trump and
would have permitted the scoring of
game. West would presumably
open the 10 of spades. BY the time
declarer ran his six heart tricks.
West would have found it impossible
to hold onto all four spades and
the diamond and club shoppers.
