T axe My Word for 1t
By Frank Colby
This Weeks Vocabulary
Builder.

News item: 1.-THE same old story
of failure brought on by Russia's
The word intran-
sigent entered English from the
French, from the Spanish, from the
Latin intransigere, mot to come to
an agreement" In English, intran-
sigent is an adjective, meaning ire
fusing to compromise or agree" 1t
is also a noun, meaning "a radical;
one who Is uncompromising." The
noun intransigence means quality
of being uncompromising; unwill-
ingness to cooperate" Intransi-
gence is pronounced in-TRAN-si-
jenss.
News item: Some sort Of politi-
cal unification for German Trizonia
must be worked out" Trizonia Is a
new coined name to designate the
three zones of Western Germany
occupied by England, France and
the United States. The fourth zone,
Eastern Germany, is held by the oc-
cupation forces of the Soviet Union.
Trizonia is coined from tri-,
three" plus zone, IAN area or re-
gion set apart, plus ia, "a place or
country" Trizonia is pronounced:
try-ZOE-nee-uh. CYou will not flnd
the name in your dictionary; 80
write it in from this descriptiono
News item: " designed to
bring an end to feather bedding by
labor unions" The verb to feath-
er-bed means ''to create unneces-
sary jobs by the enforced hiring
of unneeded workers; to spread out
work by slow or wasteful methods;
to hold down production by refus-
ing to adopt time and labor saving
methods" This not-very-pretty
word is not yet in your dictionary;
so write it in. The verb Is feather
bed. The noun Is feather-bedding.
Several readers have questioned
the use by John L. Lewis OF the
very "disafiliate" in describing his
withdrawal of the United Mine
Workers from the A. F. Of L. Dis
affiliate is quite proper; 1t means
"to sever an afiliation." Pronounce
it: DISS-uh- ate. (Afhliate,
incidentally, has an unusual origin.
1t is from the Latin affiliare, ito
adopt son."

exaggerate the Importance of ascer-
tanning the number of aces held by
partner. Mind you, I do not like
to assume a snobbish attitude
toward the highest ranking cards
in the pack. Somehow I have a
superstitious dread of their for
saking me at a time when they are
most needed. But it should be OBJ
vious that the possession of four
aces does not in itself indicate that
a slam Is there for the asking.
Many times $50 aces merely take
the sting out of penalty incurred
in an unsuccessful game contract.
In bidding slams it is much more
vital to determine that the partner
ship has the ability to take II
tricks.
Occasionally, however, a hand Is
met in which the bidding indicates
a plethora Of winning tricks and
the only consideration is that Of
suit controls. 1t is on hands of this
type that conventions like the
Blackwood and its near relatives
are very, very effective. In today's
hand when North's heart response
is jumped by the opener, North
should sense slam possibilities, and
the diagnosis is based on the fol-
lowing considerations.
North himself holds a hand that
Is the equivalent to an opening bid,
if the king of clubs is regarded as
promoted to the value of the ace
by reason Of partners opening bid
in that suit. His partner has opened
the bidding and jumped. have
many times demonstrated that
player holding an opening bid
against a partner who then jumps
must consider hes holds a favored
candidate for slam.
If South happens to hold three
aces there should be a splendid play
for the slam in view of the appar-
ent fit, and a Blackwood bid might
therefore be in order, for If 1t is
determined that partner has only
two aces, contract of five hearts
should nevertheless be safe.
In the direct method advocated
by our group of players, North sug-
gests the slam at this point by
showing an ace. On the surface the
four-club bid does just that, but
since it Is highly probable that
opener has that card he will under
stand that partner is designating
the king. When South co-operates
by showing the ace of diamonds
North is in a position to bid the
slam on the basis of his singleton
spade. South, of course, having two
losers in that suit, is not in a posi-
tion to assume the responsibility.
In this hand the determining
factor is not merely the aces, but
the possession of the right singleton.

in the form of humus and
plant food, well illustrates the
way our soil was gradually de-
veloped. This cycle of plant
life will be more fully describ-
ed later on. It explains the
means by which the various
plant foods, with the excep-
ton Of the minerals, are gath
cred from the atmosphere and
deposited in the soil.
Some soils react to a fertility
building program much more
quickly than others, just as
some soils were richer than
others when first settled by
the westward moving pio-
neers. However, the response
to proper handling methods is
just about as noticeable in one
type of soil as in another, the
main difference being that of
degree.

sugars, the protein becomes
amino acids, the fats become
fatty acids, and the minerals
and vitamins are freed. After
this these materials will be
sent from the liver through
the blood stream to every cell

Some cells will take minerals,
some will take vitamins, 9th
ers will choose amino acids,
sugar or fats. We do not know.
for example which cell will Sc

But each cell knows which
particular nutrient it needs,
selects it and builds it into its
own structure thus becoming
a part of our body as nerve,

the cells do this is the secret

U.N. REVIEW

After adopting for its agenda,
by a vote of 9 to 2, the case con-
corning the charge that the Soviet
Unions Berlin blockade was a
threat to international peace, the
Security Council adjourned after
hearing the accusations of the
French, United Kingdom and
United States representatives.
The USSR and Ukrainian repre-
sentatives, although present, did
not take part in the debate be-
cause they considered that the
Council has no jurisdiction in this
case.
In the General Assembly's First
Committee political and Secu-
rity Affairs) Australia, France
and Belgium proposed the estab-
lishment of a special subcommit-
tee charged with the task Of
reaching a compromise or agree
ment between the USSR and the
majority opinion Of the Commit
tee on the subject of international
control of atomic energy.
The Economic Commission for
Europe's Special Committee on In
dustrial Development and Trade,
meeting in Geneva, recommended
the creation of a new committee
to work on the expansion of
lntra-European trade. Byelorus-
STA, Czechoslovakia, Poland, the
Ukraine, the USSR and Yugo-
slavia abstained from voting in
favor of the proposal because
they considered that the terms Of
reference of the projected com
mittee did not 60 far enough in
the desired direction.
The USSR has applied for U.N.
aid to help nourish German chill

nouncement of a $1,000, 900 four

How Food Becomes Part Of Our Body. w
T~RANDAILER JONES. NUTRITIoNIsT
Department of Health. ST. Thomas. v. l.

To see how food becomes a
part of our body we have been
taking a lunch of baked maca-
roni and cheese, tomato salad,
bread and cocoa on a trip from
the time of eatig it by various
station stops along the alimen-
tary canal. Our last stop was
the small intestines where the
lunch was finally changed into
a liquid form and is now ready
to be taken into the body pro
per.
The walls of the small intes-
tines is lined with very tiny
mouths, called Will. These
tiny mouths serve as the gate
way through which the food
passes from the alimentary ca
nal into the blood stream on
its way to a new station and
store house, the liver.
There are some parts of the
food that our workers, the di-
gestive juices, cannot change
into a liquid form for passage
into the blood stream, The skin
OF the tomato and parts Of the
lettuce are examples. Such
material is pushed along the
small intestines into a large
canal, the large intestihes.
This is the waste station where
undigested food serves the pur
pose of filling the large intes-
tines more quickly, and hold
ingNmoisture which makes for
regular and frequent elimina-
ton.
But what becomes Of the
lunch which was digested, en-
tered the blood stream and car
ried to the liver? It IS broken

TREASURES
In Your Soil

When the early pioneers
took up land in this U.s., they
found it generously endowed
by Mother Nature. 1t was pro-
tected against erosion by plen-
ty of vegetation. 1t was rich in
humus. Much of it was highly
productive. 1t bloomed with
bounteous crops, even with the
crude tillage methods then
used.
Perhaps few of US ever stop
to consider the many thou
sands of years that were re-
quired by Mother Nature tc
convert the rock of which the
earth's surface is said to have
been originally composed, into
productive soil.
1t is very easy to see, how
ever, that, in many localities,
it has taken less than 100 years
to tear down much of the fer
tility that old Mother Nature
had so painstakingly built ur
through the centuries.
Yet we need not give ul
hope. There is a cure for al.
most every i'll. Some all-wise
Providence, which we may
call Mother Nature, still sup
plies an abundance of those
elements she once used in a
natural way, to build up and
maintain the fertility and pro-
ductiveness Of our land.
Since Mother Nature start
out with rock, gradually
breaking it up by freezing and
glacial action, winds,
ETC., it is obvious that the ma
terials used in building our
richest soils, with the excep-
ton Of the minerals, came
from the elements in the air
and not from the rock itself.

up, falling down, rot
ting, going back into the soil

26 SCOUTS BACK FROM CAMp0REE
 AT EAGLE RIVER

TWenty-six Juneau and Douglas Scouts returned Saturday evening from an overnight Camporee at Eagle River in fine spirits and ready to go again. The camp was marked as a successful outing with every boy in the camp trying his luck at reflector oven biscuits. The Cam poree was conducted on a Patrol basis under the leadership of Patrol Leaders.
 Scout Camporees are designed to make better campers of Scouts. To be a good camper one must be good cook. Much time was spent on the preparation of food. News menus introduced were Hike Chowder and Reflector oven biscuits. both of which met with fair success. Ten reflector ovens were made by the Scouts and received plenty of use.
 Because the preparation of meals and clearing up around composites consumed more time than is nor mally necessary for the efficient Patrol operation, it is necessary that we conduct immediately Patrol Leaders Training School" Del Hanks. Scout Executive, said today.
 In discussing the Training Con- ference at camp, Patrol Leaders agreed that the outdoor session of the training course should be con- ducted in February but that the indoor sessions which can be con- ducted in Juneau, could be conduct- ed any time. It was agreed also that all Green Bar Officers should attend the training course. This would include Assistant Patrol Lead CTS, Scribes. Quartermasters, Junior Assistant Scoutmasters, and Senior Patrol Leaders. The course consists of five sessions and each Scout completing the. course will receive a ] Training Certificate
