difference Of opinion not only
makes betting good, but sometimes
gives rise to political battles which
otherwise might be peacefully
settled. Z
Currently underway throughout
the state is one Of the hottest poll
tical fights in Louisiana history :
the u. S. senatorial seat. There
are at least three major candidates
for the post and quite a few less
err contenders who will be forced
to drop out Of the picture.
On one side is incumbent Sen.
Russell Lond, son the the King
fish who inadvertently found him
self in the middle when his uncle,
Gov. Earl K. Long, took up the
cudgel for the Truman-B Barley
combine against the States Right
ers in the last presidential cleo
ton. At odds with Long is Leand-
er Perez, former sidekick of the
Long regime who based his op-
position to the incumbent senator
under the guise that Russell is a
candidate of the Negroes"
To be charged with being a
"Negro lover in at least four of
the states in the deep South, is
almost certain defeat for any poll
teal candidate : especially if his
Negro admirers are strong on talk
and weak on voting.
The third man in the race is
Malcolm LaFargue, acting federal
district attorney for the western
section of the state. An idol OF
Dixiecrats and States Fighters, he
has the support of Mayor de Les
seps S. Morrison of New Orleans
who had been accused but denied
entering into agreement with
Gov. Long to aid Russell in ex-
change for repeal of punitive tax
laws passed by the state against
the city. Mayor Morrison had
first sought to push another can
didate, but the man refused to en-
ter the fight.
Through all this, the Negro with
only a handful of votes is obliged
to stand on the sidelines until
election day in July, for fear Of
spelling a candidates chances or
having him branded a "Negro
Lover" Yet the registration of
Negroes continues briskly through

Oh Red!
The cry, "Oh Red, whatcha gon-
ma do" brings back memories OF
the 3O's when we : : homegrown
up--were treated to the spectacle
of Swing knocking itself out all
over the place and simultaneously
knocking us out. From one of the
top rhythm numbers sprang a
somewhat original limerick
dreamed up by the astute but
youthful followers of the Swing
gentry), which went something
like this:
"Oh Red, whatcha gonna do
ooh Red, cant'che get thru. -
Time has wreaked it's toll up
on our memories so the rest of
rest of the lyrics have been for
gotten. "Red", in this instance, re-
ferred to Big Red : or as it has
since become, the Green Hornet
in simple language, a street car,
tram or trolley.
What brought on this? Well, the
tune, OH RED, is among a
collection Of oldies from the Gins
ner circle treasure chest of
swing',' now on 10 inch LIP by the
master of the levee blues pace,
Count Basic. The disc is labelled
"Count Basic At the Piano., a
loosely-woven rhythm jaunt which
has Freddie Green on guitar, Wal
ter Page on bass and 10 10 Jones
on drums.
The tunes show the Basic at
his best, exhibiting the masterful
technique which caused his Kan
sas City jazz to rock heavily in
to the swing picture and place him
in spot light reserved only for the
greats in the dion, Best of all
it Affords an ecelelxnt opportunity
for disc addicts to enjoy, without
the big band, the Basic technique
of pianistic artistry : especially
that single-fingered right hand
style for which he is noted.
Besides "Red", there are the
original and well-know treatments
of BOOGIE WOOGIE = The Pine
Top Smith opus; HOW LONG,
HOW LONG BLUES and WHEN

Others in the set, while not as well

Volcanoes send out many things
besides lava. Smoke comes from
them, along with various gases.
Cinders are blown out, and so is
dust.
Lava, however, is by far the main
product. 1t is hot rock-so not that
it is molten-and it runs down a
slope as If it were a slow-moving
river. The speed differs according
to the steepness Of the slope, but
often it moves as we might expect
nolasses to move.
AS the lava moves, the outside
cools. Sometimes the outside lava
hardens, into a crust, forming a
kind of tube or tunnel. The hotter
lava inside the tube may flow on
ward, leaving the tube empty.
Hawaii has many tubes or. tunnels
which were formed in that way.
So far as written history tells us,
the greatest flow of lava took place
in Iceland 167 years ago. A great
opening, called the Skaptar Cleft,
sent out so much molten rock that
it formed a 'lava lake" The lava
spread covered an area of 270
square miles. In some places it was
more than 100 feet deep.
That Is the greatest flow of lava

with a good, written record, but
scientists have found proofs Of
larger flows in past ages.
The United States, for example,
has the famous Columbia Lava
Plateau. This exists in Oregon,
Washington and Idaho, and its area
is more than 100000 square miles!
In places, the Columbia Lava
Plateau is 1000 feet thick. Study
of the material shows that it
gained size during a long period.
Some flows of lava added only from
10 to 20 feet to the thickness. Other
flows appear TO have produced
lakes of lava 200 feet deep.
Great lava plateaus were also
built up in northern Africa, India
and elsewhere. In the Sahara
Desert is mass of lava rock a mile
and a quarter high and 155 miles
wide.
Some eruptions send out the
strange lava known as 'scoria." !"

weight that it will float on water.

An Akron school teacher writes:
Am I right in thinking that the
apostrophe, In the possessive case
Of nouns, stands for the contrac-
ton Of the word his" as Johns
book (John his book?
A moments reflection will show
how unfounded the supposition Is.
The apostrophe cannot stand for

Despite its Latin terminology,
English grammar did not evolve
from Latin, but from Anglo-Saxon,

originally was a highly infected
language. The possessive case of
nouns was formed by adding -es,
lis, or -ys.

The bidding: !,

2 diamonds Pass 2heartS Pass
no-trump Pass 3no-trump Pass
Pass Pass
Opening lead: Jack of clubs.
It was the second hand low"
slogan that came to South's rescue
after he had undertaken an enter
prising contract of three no-trump
The bidding is given as it actually
took place and, while we are not
ready to place upon it our seal OF
approval, we are, nevertheless, not
inclined to treat it with disdain.
With the opening bid of one heart
we are in full accord. On hands OF
mediocre strength, containing two
suits, distributed five and four, it is
better practice to treat the suits as
though they were of the same
length for the purpose of opening
the bidding. 1t allows for greater
economy of bidding space an ad-
vantage which. is not to be uncer-
estimated with hands of moderate
strength.
North'S return to two hearts on
the second round with only two
of the suit has about it a touch of
quaintness, yet to- a degree we SYM
pathize with him. So far as we can
detect, there was no completely
satisfactory call available to him.
A pass would be drastic underbid
In view of the fact that the exact
strength of South's hand has not
yet been determined; a raise to
three diamonds would be a bit on
the aggressive side, as would a bid
of two no-trump, considering the
sketchy nature of the club stopper.
Nevertheless, the latter would have
been our choice) It's touch and 60
as to South's two no-trump bid,
after a one-over-one response, fol-
lowed by a mere preference bid of
two hearts. For purposes of suit
bidding, he had distinctly more
than a minimum. but at no-trump
his hand had the value of only IA
points. 1t was rather Sanguine of
him to expect to find IL in the
North hand. However, East was a
bit helpful.
West led the jack of clubs which
declarer won in dummy with the
queen. He started development of
the diamond suit by leading the
seven. East played second hand very
low and, with that slight gesture,
unwittingly conceded the game to
the opposition. West won with the
jack and proceeded with his attack
of the club suit. When declarer
played a second round of diamonds,
East won but had no club to return.
This breathing space provided de-
clarer with sufficient time to estab-
lish two tricks in diamonds, bringing
his total to nine.
Had East risen with the king of.
diamonds at the first lead of that
suit, declarer would have finished
second in the race for required
number of tricks, for West would
have had two quick entries of dia-
monds to help him establish and
cash the club suit. ~
Moral: When partner is attempt
ing to establish suit at no-trump,
rush in with all possible haste to
win tricks and return his suit.

The illness of the young pianist,
Byron Janis, gave the Constitu-
ton Hall audience an opportunity
to hear the Cuban artist, Jorge
Bolet, in his stead, as soloist with
the National Symphony at last
nights concert. Mr.. Bolet has
played with the Symphony at the
Water Gate several times, the last
in July, but this was his first ap-
pearance with the ensemble in
the winter auditorium. The
change in soloists in no way dis
rupted the program, for Mr.. Bolet
played the Rachmaninoff Con
certo No. 3" which had been
scheduled for Mr.. Janis. 1t is the
least familiar of Rachmaninoff' S
concertos.
Mr.. Bolet has all the power and
f1eetness of technique needed for
this long and difficult work. In
his building up of climaXes and
in his appreciation of the many
songful moments of Rachmani-
noff's music, he showed a true
interpretative sympathy, and his
