He pointed out the advantage OF
refusing to win until one opponent
had been exhausted of the lead suit
Ia order to cut communications be-
tween the defenders hands. For a
change Mr.. Muzzy listened atten-
lively. This was not good.
Again today's three no-trump bid
Mr.. Dale led the deuce of hearts.
Now, Mr.. Muzzy could have, made
his contract by winning with the
ace and promptly taking a club
flnesSe. The flnesse would have
lost and the defenders could then
have won three heart tricks. But
That would have been all. Mr.. Muzzy
would have had the rest.
However, the play did not go like
That. When he saw the opening
lead and the dummy, Mr.. Muzzy
said to himself, "This Is it! The
holdup play" He let Mrs. Keen win
with the 10 Of hearts over dummy's
trey.
Believing her partner to have only
four hearts, Mrs. Keen realized the
hand could not be defeated in the
heart suit alone. She, therefore,
shifted to the four of diamonds.
Mr.. MuzZy PLAYED the six Of
hearts. mo diamonds, partner?"
snapped Mr.. Heinsite.
Mr.. MuzZy looked confused. "Who
led a diamond?" he asked.
II did," answered Mrs. Keen.
Mr.. Muzzy didn't like this at all.
He had expected a heart return. He
had the air of man who thinks he
has been cheated. He picked up
the heart and played a low diamond.
Well, If it's good to duck in one
suit, 1t must be twice as good to
duck in two suits. So Mr.. Muzzy
let Mr.. Dale's 10 of diamonds hold.
On came the jacket of diamonds
and it, too, won.
Mr.. Dale then went back to
hearts and Mr.. Muzzy apparently
fearing the opponents would make
q slam If he didn't step In soon,
won with the ace.
He fnessed clubs, losing to the
king and the defenders then took
two more heart trickS-down two.

for the immediate resignation of
"any school board member op-
posed to modern methods for de-
lveloping the whole child" It also
urged that the present appointive

physical and dental examinations.
The name of Board of Educa-
tion Member Robert r. Faulkner.
whose charges OF wasted space
and "socialiStic tendencies" have
brought on widespread controversy,
was not mentioned last night.
There was little doubt, however.
that he was the target of the
groups action.
The associations vote was to
approve a report of its Education
Committee, headed by Edward r.
Gray. The lengthy resolution was
passed after a brief debate. in
which only one member offered
opposition.
DR.. Charles Shoemaker, a den
tist, asserted that children educa-
ted by modern methods cannot
spell. can hardly add and aren't
worth much at anything" He did
not vote against the motion,
however.
The association also asked that
so long as the U. s. District Court

tinues to appoint board members,
it make public the names of or
ganizations or persons indorsing
the appointee.
1t also asked the court to con-
slider the following qualifications
in appointing any board member:
l. Adult experience with sew
eral schools and participation in
civic work for school improve
ment.

ment, history of our time, an
evaluation of struggle between

Ford emerges as the mechani-
cal genius, the master mind who
knew the machine he developed
and had a better idea of business
than he was given credit for.
The reader will learn a lot in
this book about Cameron and
Sorensen, about Jim Couzens and
Harry Bennett. Couzens, pushed
out of the organization, was
wiser than other minority stock
holders. He dealt directly with
Ford in selling his stock and got
a better price. When the battle
over dividends was taken to
court, Ford was ordered to pay
$685. for each dollar originally in

Take NV Word for It

Troublesome Twins: Rout-route.
Rout means "to put to flight" as:
The enemy was routed by United
Nations forces. Route means "a
course Of travel" as: What is the
shortest route to New York?
Many Americans still create a
problem for themselves with the
pronunciation of route. Most
American dictionaries sanction both
pronunciations: Rout and root. The
majority Of Americans continue to
prefer: Rout. This Is easy to explain.
First, "ou", when followed by "t''
suggests the sound Of "out"-bout,
scout, shout, etc. Second, the sound
of root suggests everything but
what the word means: Example:
American Airlines rooted" me to
Philadelphia! Can't you just see
that picture!
Overworked: Crazy: She bought

She's crazy about the book. This

Rare Spotted Bat.

Only 10 specimens of this bat
have been found anywhere in
the world. On August IS, 1851,
naturalists of Yosemite Park had
an exciting experience. Jack Unger,
lad of 9, on a visit to Yosemite
Park, saw a bat lying on the bank
of the Merced River in Camp Is.
1t was having yellow jacket trouble.
The stinger had stabbed the help
less mammal several times on its
wings and was trying its level best
to reach the body.
The bat was unable to retaliate or
even navigate. Jack being nature
minded, hurried back to the museum
to report what he had witnessed.
He was asked to bring in the victim
if possible.
The following day, he found to
his amazement, the bat in almost
the same spot as of the day before,
beneath the roots of a ponderosa
pine within few feet of the water.
Though exhausted, the bat was
very much alive. He was placed in
a cardboard box for the short trip

(Eudema imaculatum, by reason OF
the single large white spot on each
shoulder and one at the base Of each
wing. A third large one at the base
of the tail and q very black fur
coat. The ears were very large.
After these observations were
carefully noted, the guest was given
food and water. All day guests and
scientists called. He was measured
and photographed. The next
morning he passed on and was
mounted. He may be seen in his
place of honor in the museum.
This is the second one found In
the park and about 20 years apart.
In both instances an alert nature
observer was responsible for the
coveted prize.
AS far as is known, these rare
bats follow bat tradition. Chase
insects at night, sleep during the
day in a hollow tree. Increase by
two in early winter. They are
harmless. BY their incessant hunt
ing they contribute their warfare
