During the Middle Ages in
Europe, people failed to keep the
roads in good condition. Little care
was given even to the old Roman
roads.
Those who travelled from city to
city often followed narrow lanes
Tor footpaths. Knights rode from
place to place, but people who were
poor went on foot.
The knights took part in tourna-
ments, sometimes winning prizes by
proving they were expert at fitting.
If they were attacked by "robber
knights" during their journeys, they
fought in deadly earnest.
Ladies of the castles did less
travelling than the men, but some-
times they rode near the knights
They hoped that the bold knights
whom they had married would save
them from harm along the way.
For a long time in Europe's his
tory-chief1y the period of the
Crusades-the persons who did the
most walking were pilgrims. Many
thousands of them were on the way
to Rome, the home of the Pope, and
other thousands were bound for the
Holy Land.
The pilgrims carried little money,
Evening star., 1951-01-05

If any, and trusted to people along
the way to feed them. There were
many homes where they found good
treatment, and they told the news
of their journey as kind of pay
ment for food and lodging.
In some sections, however, the
pilgrims were far from popular
When too many of them covered a
certain route, the people along the
way felt that they were being
called on for too much help. Not
all OF the pilgrims who set out for
Rome and the Holy Land reached
their goal.
With the passing of centuries,
roads in Europe became somewhat
better, though far from perfect.
Stagecoach lines were set up be-
tween the larger cities. A coach
was likely to be driven at the rate
Of S or 6 miles an hour. That
was fast enough for the rough,
bumpy roads. Records of journeys
300 years ago show that in fast"
stagecoach trip a traveller covered
200 miles in week.

Opening lead, ace of clubs.
That there can be too much of a
good thing is a principle which
West is now willing to accept after
his narrowing experience in today's
deal.
II am quite familiar with all
these school-marm essays on the
evils of doubling a slam. But how
far can a mans patience be
tested?" This, we are willing to
concede, is just about the breaking
point.
Perhaps it is better to gloss over
the bidding sequence adopted by
South. What purpose he hoped
to accomplish by the use of
Blackwood bid I do not know, ex-
cept the observance of a ritual
which so many players seem to
think is a required preliminary of
all slam bids. There is this to be
said on his behalf, however, if North
turned up with two aces he could
safely contract for a grand slam.
But, after finding partner aceless,
1t required an unbounded faith in
nature to contract for slam with
the queen of diamonds and two
possible clubs losers to contend with.
West opened the ace of clubs.
South realized that unless he could
gain entry into dummy, the hand
was lost, so he dropped the jack of
clubs on the first trick. West con-
tinued the suit and declarer won
with the queen. In the absence of
the warning by Vests double, de-
clarer's normal play, after extract
Ing trumpS, would be to enter
dummy with the eight of clubs and
go for the diamond f1nesse. But
declarer considered it better tactics
to play West for everything out of
sight. Mentally placing the king
OF diamonds and the ace of spades
In his hand, he decided to project a
squeeze against him. |
He cashed all seven trumps and
the king of clubs, leaving himself
with the five of clubs and the ace
queen of diamonds. Dummy's re-
naming cards were the eight of
clubs, the king of spades and a
diamond. West held the ace of /
spades and the king-jack of dia-
monds. AS declarer led the five of I
clubs to dunmy's eight, West had
reached the end of his tether. He
made the best play by discarding
the jack of diamonds in the hope
that partner held the queen.
Declarer had no difficulty in siz-
ing up what had taken place. He
led a diamond from dummy and
came up with the ace, telling
Vests king and scoring the 18th !
trick with the queen of diamonds |

It seemed endless to the young Jones.
as the older one recalled.
"One. two, three, four, now turn
around, now here we go, one, two, three,

Jones shook his head to remove the
taste of that awful memory.
Why did they, in their innocence. have
to spoil everything they touched?

Now here was Jones, many years later,
worrying about the problem Of his slap
happy feet.
Squeaking shoes, the bane of many an
adult, were not part Of his life.
Without foot blemish, without corns.
without foot ache of any kind, what
did he have to slap his toes down so
hard for?
The thing worried him.
Perhaps it is just as well for the
average human being to worry over such
trivial matters as over the fate of the
world.
After all, what can the average Ameri-
can. or the average Russian. or the
average Englishman do about the world
state?
There are plenty of know -alls who
are eager to tell him just what he can
do Oh, yes! But actually, what can he
do? Templeton Jones feels he may be
able to do something about his toes, and
that makes him slightly happy. ANY,
thing that makes person today even
feebly happy Is to be treasured.

Since the announcement Of DR.. Harold

superintendent in charge of Negro
schools. I have waited anxiously for
comment in your Letters to the Editor"
column.
DR.. Haynes is we'll known. especially
in teacher circles. In recent years, all
who have been appointed to teach in
Negro~schools have had to come to>hin
for certif1cation. My experience with
him the past three years has been
marked by repeated evidences of his
rigorous efforts, to the best of his ability,
to screen, test, and certify competent
people to teach the Negro youth of this
community. No doubt this is written in
the description of the job he had to do;
nevertheless. it is praiseworthy to state
how well he did this work
DR.. Haynes commendable performance
during his years in the District schools
bespeaks quality. character, zeal. in
tegrity and ingenious interest in the
welfare Of the children Of our schools.
He rightfully takes his place to carry on
the fine work guided so long and so
effectively by DR.. Wilkinson. His work
will be distinguished by the impact Of
his own personality, conviction, leader
ship, genuine and humane appreciation
Of people, and q steadfastness to ideals
which. he has adhered to these many

Balancing the Scales

recent decision by the National Labor
Relations Board, adopted unanimously, indicates
that lot of water has passed over the labor
law dam since the days when it seemed as though
a union could do no wrong and employers could
do nothing right
local of the International Association of
Machinists in Des Moines, Iowa, had accused
an employer of automobile dealers
of an illegal lockout.
The boards trial examiner found that the
local union had obtained strike authorization
after a staemate in wage negotiations. On the
following day two members of the 21-member
employer association were struck and the re-
naming 10 employers closed down their repair
shops. This was the alleged illegal lockout.
The trial examiner however, in findings
approved by the board, concluded that the union
had pursued a strategy of holding strike threat
over the heads of the 10 innsbruck dealers
presenting the prospect that strike might
occur at time when customers cars were In
various stages of repair Although pointing out
that each situation would have to be judged
on its own facts the trial examiner ruled in
this case as follows: can employer Is not pro-
