present of a fish. When the fish
was prepared for the table, the ring
was found inside It!
The ruler was glad to get his ring
back. He felt that he had done his
duty to the gods and put it on his

The legend goes on to tell us that
his good fortune failed to last. He

Goren on Bridge

The bidding of todays hand was
In accordance with modern stand
ards and requires no particular
comment except. perhaps, South's
bid of three spades, which serves a
dual purpose. 1t permits partner to
contract for game in no-trump il
that appears to be the best spot"
or enables partner to proceed to-
ward slam if his hand is suited for
the purpose.
The spade opening was the only
one that could provide the declarer
with any serious worries. He natu-
rally took the trick and was faced
with the problem as to how to man.
age the trump suit. Were the queen
of diamonds the only consideration,
the proper procedure would be to
finesse the jack on the second round,
inasmuch as the odds favor the
f1nesse rather than the drop with
five cards out.
But declarer realized that even
without capturing the queen there
was still a chance to fulfill the
sporting contract. He decided flrst
to try to drop the queen OF dla-
monds doubleton. If that failed
there was still the chance that the
clubs would break three-three SO
that dummy's spade could be dis
carded on the fourth club. And even
If the clubs split four there was
the slight additional chance that the
PLAYER with the queen OF trumps
would have to follow to all the club
leads.
When the queen of diamonds
dropped on the second round de-
clarer could afford to extract the
last trump. North and South were
rewarded with a well-earned slam.
Declarers' technique was sound.
On the trump play, while percent
ages favor the finesse, that play is
only slightly superior to the drop.
And by abandoning a flnesse de-
clarer picks up certain other advan-
tages, such as favorable club break.
There is this further consideration:
If declarer tries for the diamond
finesse and fails, he meets with sud-
den death, but if he tries for the
drop and fails, his hopes have not
ended. He still has another chance
to bring in the hand.

Inc creeks OF long ago had a
spirit OF adventure. Many of them
left their native land and Travelled
to islands, near and far. Others
crossed to the mainland on the other
side of the Aegean Sea, reaching a
little edge of the continent of Asia.
Colonies were started in those
places. The people in those colonies
carried books with them, books which
had been written by hand in Athens
and other Greek cities. Schools were
started and some of the colonists
became learned men.
One Greek colony was on the
island of Samos, on the eastern side
of the Aegean. At one time this
island was ruled by man named
Polycrates. He was the richest man
there and his word was law. He
was known as "the Tyrant of Samos, I"
meaning that he held supreme
power.

You are too fortunate" a friend
said to him one day. IF your good
fortune keeps up, the gods will grow
jealous and you will suffer harm.
The best thing you could do would
be to throw away a treasure as al

thing which you prize most.
The ruler looked at q beautiful

he decided to give 1t up. Going to

After Dark
Basil Fomeen Is USO's Man,
AS He Proved Once Before
By Harry Macarthur

by three forgotten GIs, they were
off to do a show. The only trouble
Troup 80 ever gave Special Serv-
ices was the demand for more and
less accessible audiences.
Through it all Mr.. Fomeen had
the time of his life. It wouldn' t
surprise us at all if he suddenly
disappeared from the Carlton, to
turn up playing the accordion on
the Berlin airlift.
Mr.. Fomeen had more adven-
lures than many who took up the
gypsy life of USO entertaining.
His curiosity, somewhat more ac-
tive than normal, saw to that.
While he was in China, for
example, one of the things he be-
came curious about was night
fighting in the air. Hes kept
brooding about that until he had
to find out what it was like. He
spent a great deal of time heckling
a pilot friend, in the hope of be-
ing taken along on a night mis-
sion.
The pilot kept saying no. firmly.
I'D be court martialed," he said,
and you might be shot. And if
you got shot. they wouldn't even
bother with the court martial
when they caught me. No. Be-
sides this is war going on here
and not a game arranged for the
Evening star., 1949-03-01

President Truman undoubtedly
acted for the good of all con-
cerned when he moved recently to
add the USO to the list of re-
activated service units. It still is
a moot point. however. whether
this should have been done while
Basil Fomeen is in town. Mr..
Fomeen is all too likely to get
right down off that Carlton Congo
Room bandstand and go join up.
