While I am q Staunch advocate
OF the point count method for sizing
up hands at no trump, like to sug-
gest from time to time that methods
Of hand valuation were devised for
your assistance, but you must not
permit yourself to become subject to
their tyranny. Methods involving
tabulationS are surely less charming,
and frequently less effective, than
the drawing Of clearly defined pic
lures.
Where a void is held, the bidding
Of slams is greatly facilitated by
the discovery not of the number OF
aces partner holds, but specifically
which ones.
Today's hand was culled from a
tournament in which not one Of
the pears managed to reach the
maximum contract. While they all
sensed the likelihood of a grand
slam they were not aware of any
method to arrive at seven with
assurance. I submitted the hand to
number Of my colleagues and was
interested to observe that in almost
every case they adopted bid for bid
the sequence appearing in the dia-
gram.
The first round of bidding calls
for no comment. After the jump
rebid to three spades. North, holding
very high-grade bid himself, did
not intend to settle for less than six
spades, but if partner held certain
specific cards. namely the ace Of
hearts and the ace of diamonds, the
grand slam would be a moral cinch.
He therefore bid four hearts IN the
hope that some pertinent facts
would come to light. Normally after
violent support of a major suit the
naming of another suit would indi-
cate possession of the ace. How
ever, North had no choice but to
probe in this manner. South duti-
fully showed the diamond control
and North decided to make another
descriptive bid of five hearts. in
tending to convey the picture Of an
enormous two suiter, hoping in this
way to elicit some information as to
partners heart holding;
South concluded that his partner
must be fishing for the ace Of
hearts and decided at long last to
show it by bid of six hearts. This
bid obviously did not express q
desire to play at that suit, since
spades had been definitely agreed
upon. 1t now became easy for North
to contract for grand slam In
spades.
From North's standpoint South
might have had a richer hand than
the one he did but which would
not produce a grand slam. For ex-
ample:

The number of aces held was not
the pertinent question. 1t was,
which ones?

My Word for 1t
By Fronk Colby
Some Matters of Usage.

Recently, in a magazine story,
the heroine was spoken of as hav-
ing "prehensile eyes," I have no
idea what the author intended, for
the word prehensile means adapt
ed for grasping by wrapping
around" as the prehensile tail of
monkey. Certain snakes. like
the pythons and constructors, may
also be termed prehensile; but Q
woman's eyes? Hardly.
A caption in the Saturday Eve
ming Post reads, Shades of Paul
Bunyan!" The venerable and un-
usually well-edited Post probably
received bagfuls of mail explain
ing that a shade is ghost or
spirit, and that not even as fabu-
lous a man as Paul Bunyan could
have more than one shade. 1t
should have been Shade of Paul
Bunyan!" indicating that, Bunyan
would have been astonished or
perturbed.
In an Ohio daily a caption ex-
plains that an Akron chemistry
teacher had "' - built a seismo-
graph to record earthquakes in the
basement OF his home" OF course,
the teacher doesn't have earth
quakes in his basement-at least,
let us hope not-and 1t is as re-
dundant to speak of "seismo-
graph to record earthquakes" as 1t
would be to speak of phonograph
for playing records. Both logic
and brevity would have been served
by writing" > = built a seismograph
in the basement of his home"
Incidentally, seismograph Is pro-
nounced: SIZE-muh-graff.
Emily Post reports that pro-
fessional photographer tunnamed)
has corrected her time and again
for saying verbal invitation" in
stead of "oral invitation" She
denies that verbal invitation" is
incorrect, and cites good author
ity to prove her stand. And I want
to back her up. Not only is verbal
customary in the meaning of spoken
rather than written" but 1t has the
complete sanction of every die
tionary known to me, including Noah
Webster's original 1928 edition.

Additional Territory
Demanded by Jews a.
Result Of Victories
b. the Assoeieted Pres,

TEL AVN, Israel, July 3o.-Israel
today demanded new territories in
Palestme-perhaps including Jeru-
saIem-as a result OF Jewish VIC
tories over Arab armies.
Foreign Minister Moshe Shertok
served notice of the Jewish de-
mands yesterday in an address be-
fore the Israeli State Council. He
said
The Arabs are responsible that
the boundaries fixed by the United
Nations no longer are practical
and we must insist on changing
them by adding territories and not
by diminishing them"
Mr. Shertok said Israel plans i'm
mediate steps TO place Jerusalem
under Jewish sovereignty. Israel
he added, has rejected Count Folke
Bernadotte's plan to demilitarize the
Holy City because it provided for
eventual Arab rule.
Change of Plan Demanded.
Earlier, cabinet source said the
Israeli government has told the
U, N, mediator that it will discuss
the demilitarization plan further if
he publicly renounces his original
plan to put the city under Arab
rule.
Mr.. Shertok also told the ST.
member council that:
l. Israeli authorities will refuse to
permit the return of any of the
100000 Arab Refugees to their Pal
estinian homes until their status
can be considered as part OF a
minority question, including the
status of Jews in Arab states.
2. Israel will demand heavy in
demnities" from the Arabs In peace
negotiations for what he called
hundreds of millions OF dollars lost
by direct war expenses"
He reiterated previous appeals to
the Arabs to negotiate directly
Jewish-Arab differences as "co-
partners of equal rights and SOW
ereignty."

Significantly, the report pointed
out that in 1947. more than one

more than they earned because OF
rising living costs.
The Economic Council, headed by
DR.. Edwin c. Nourse, came out more

The council criticized the $1,000

Congress over a presidential veto, In
these words:
