Opening lead. two Of spades.
There is a marked tendency on
the part Of certain players not to
take tricks when they see them.
The declarer is apparently trying to
get an ace out of the way and they
appear to be too stubborn to part
with their one and only trick in the
suit. Overdone, this may prove cost
ly. 1t is good general doctrine that
the place for the ace is on the king,
or the queen, or the jack. If you
are unwilling to accept the king, in
a moment or two you might find
yourself placing your ace on a lowly
deuce instead and that may turn
out to be humiliating. If you see
trick take 1t, unless you have a spe-
ciflc reason for refusing to do so.
Tricks are not to be passed up on
general principles"
Occasionally, however. the defense
must refuse to take trick with
high card when the purpose Is to
prevent the declarer from running
a long suit. where the hand contain-
ing that long suit has no entries.
The ace. in such cases. should nat
urally be held up until such time
that the declarer has no more of
that suit to get over with.
In today's hand East was afforded
the opportunity for a thoughtful
play. The contract was three no.
trump on somewhat normal bidding.
South elected to jump to two no.
trump instead of showing his four
card major, hoping to coax lead
in that suit. 1t should be observed
that the South hand barely makes
the grade for such q rebid, which
requires a minimum Of 10 points.
Only by regarding his two tens as
the equal of a jack does he reach
that total. North held Just about
enough to warrant bid of three
no-trump. 1t must be borne In
mind that jump to two no-trump
(Which is not a new suit) by ~
opening bidder is not forcing on
the responder. though 1t would be
forcing on the opener If made by
the responder. In this case the
jump was strong invitation.
West opened the deuce of spades
and the nine forced the queen. The
ten of diamonds was then led and
permitted to ride. At this point
East paused to do little calcu-
lating. His partner is known to have
exactly four spades. which gives
declarer four of the suit. The
original bid suggests that declarer
probably has at least four OF that
suit Though this is by no means
certainty, and since there should
be a very good heart holding to
Justify jump to two no-trump.
there is great likelihood that de-
clarer has only two diamonds. East
therefore ducked the first trick.
This involved no real risk, for it
was hardly likely that any business
could be transacted by the oppo-
sition without bringing In the dia-
mond suit The eight of diamonds
was continued and this time East
won with the queen. With only one
more entry in dummy. the diamonds
could be established, but there was
no way to get in to cash them, and
the contract was doomed.
Note that had East taken the
first trick there would have been
no way to prevent declarer from
taking three diamond tricks.

again in the closing minutes but
Redwood held on the 10. Chap
man was the leading ground
gamer for the Tigers and he

Carey High School football
team is still undefeated but only
after one of the most bitterly con-
tested games of the year, edging
Marysville High 1916 to win the
Mid-State League championship.
Marysville fought back from the
shadow of their own goal' to tie
the game at 60 with only few
minutes remaining and it was
only a blocked punt deep in their
own territory that cost them the
upset.
The game was played in driv-
ing rain with the field a sea of
mud which made the ball very
difficult to hold. The fast Carey
backs were almost completely
throttled by the slippery footing
and a Marysville line that swarm
ed in to drop them for loses time
after time.
Marysville had a slight edge in
play. in the first a AarteryAIaaklng
two first downs to the Blue Devils
one. Early in the second quarter,
Strahm punted and Curly Hill
returned to the Marysville Is. He
made first down on the 30 and
Hoffman added two more. On
second down the MonarchS fumbl-
ed and Carey recovered on the

Blue Devil fullback broke away
and went the distance for the in

the extra point but failed and
Carey led 60.
The third quarter was played
almost entirely in Marysville ter
ritory. The closest either team
came to a score was when Carey
moved So yards with the opening
kickoff to the Marysville 8. There
the threat was ended by a tumble
The Monarchs got their chance
when Strahm, attempting to

All Bonus Claims, Except Current,
Questionable Applications, Now Paid

All Bonus claims-except ques-
tionables and current applica-
tions including 1857 to Union
County veterans of World War II,
are now paid.
This was announced today by
Director Chester w. Goble of the
World War II Compensation
Fund in announcing 588, l27
checks totaling S182,564, ,852.56
were mailed to living veterans
and the next of kin of deceased
veterans from April % to Nov. /.
Of the total paid to Union
Countians, Gil were to Army vet
Grams and amounted to S282,678-
%. The other 246 claims were to
Navy veterans and amounted to
$66, ,406.76. Average amount per
claim was $30l.72.
Goble explained questionable
claims as those needing addi-
tionaI information or supporting
documents upon which a legal
determination can be made. This
information is requested from the
concerned in some cases and IN
others it is necessary to go to the
records branch of either the
Army or Navy.
1--WE can not say all irregular
claims are the result of the ap-
plicant's failure to follow instruc-
tions. In many instances, omis-
sions and errors on discharge
papers furnished both Army and
Navy veterans upon their separa-
ton from service cause such cases
to be made irregular" Director
Goble said.
He emphasized that all claims
are being handled as rapidly as
possible and all unpaid applicants
who have not been advised about
their claim will be notified what
to do.

Carey Defeats Marysville in Mud
By l2-6 Score to Win Mid State Crown

was penalized yards and on the
first play Hoffman Skirted left
end for % yards and the tying
touchdown. The Monarchs tried to
plunge the extra point but this
time Buddy was stopped short of
the goal line. This left the score at
60 with about 5 minutes to play.
Carey could go no where with
Grimes kickoff and Strahm
punted over the goal.
Marysville lost one yard on
three running plays and Grimes
attempted to punt out but his
kick was blocked and Carey re-
covered on the Is. Two plays later
Plott crossed the goal with the
winning points. The try for the
extra point failed and Carey led
1875. The game ended few
minutes later.
Both teams were hampered
Ieensiderabiyr by the adverse
weather conditions. The Monarchs
fumbled z times and Carey 6.
Many times the shifty Blue Dew
il backs slipped and fell before
they could get started. Grimes
blocked punt late in the game was
probably the deciding factor as
far as the breaks were concerned,
however, only one forward pass
was attempted in the game. 1t
was thrown by Berardenelli of
Carey, late in the third quarter
and was incomplete.
