In today's deal he proved
there is such a thing as being
too safe. Mrs. Keen led the queen
Of hearts. Mr.. New decided to
use the hold-up play and he
let the queen win.
A heart was continued and
taken by dummy'S ace. At this
point Mr.. New took stock and
saw that If he could take four
tricks in clubs he could win
nine tricks without having to
try the dangerous spade finesse.
OF course. there was the lit
tie matter of keeping Mrs. Keen
out of the lead. but Mr.. New was
so obseSsed with his knowledge
of how to Safety-play clubs that
he gave no thought to this dan
ger. At trick three he cashed
the ace of clubs and then led
the deuce. If Mr.. Dale had
played low. he intended to put |
in the nine. The nine would
either hold the trick or. if it |
lost, the opposing clubs would
be divided 80, the most favor
able division.
If Mr.. Dale played the ten on
the second club lead, Mr.. New |
planned to win it with the king
and fire back the nine. which !
would drive out the queen. |
Either way. he thought, four
clubs could be won.
He had used the standard
safety play for this combination
of cards all right. but see what
happened. On the second club
lead, Mr.. Dale played the ten.
Mr.. New won with the king and
played back the nine. remarking
complacently that Mr.. Dale
could take his queen any time he
wanted.
Mr.. Dale replied that if no one
objected, he believed he'd make
1t later. He ducked and let the
nine win.
It slowly dawned on Mr.. New
that he still didn't have clubs
set up and that he needed two
entries to dummy to do the job.
He had just one-the ace of dia-
monds. Desperately. he went to
the board with that card and
took the spade f1nesse. Down
he went.
Mr.. New made his mistake at
trick one in playing safe" by
holding up. He should have
gone up with the king of hearts. |
Later in the hand he would then
have had both the ace of dia-
mondS and the ace of hearts as
entries to bring in the club suit.

Uncle Rays Corner

North America is rich in rec
ords of prehistoric animals. In
many parts of Canada. the
United States and Mexico Scien-
fists have discovered bones and
other remains. When they find
rock layers with a big store of
fossils, they feel almost the same
excitement as other men feel
when they strike oil.
One remarkable find was made
by DR.. Charles D. Wolcott on
side of Mount Wapta in British
Columbia. There he discovered
little area of shale rock.
Shale is made of mud which
has hardened in the course of
time. Sometimes it marks the
delta of an ancient river, where
the river emptied into an ocean
or. sea. A large amount of Shale
exists, but the Mount Wapta
shale was laid down under spe-
cial conditions.

went back to the Cambrian
period, vast ages ago. Upper
layers of rock had been worn
away, leaving the shale in al
most perfect condition. The
facts gathered in this part Of
British Columbia are of impor-
tance to science.
A splendid prehistoric center
was located at the Agate Spring
Quarry in Sioux County, Nebr.
A thin layer of rock was found
to run through two small hills,
and a scientist described the
layer as "a pavement of inter-
lacing bones"
A block taken from that area
about z feet square and
18 inches thick-contained the
skulls of % animals. along with
several hundred bones. Men
working for one museum were
able to gather $4,000 bones!
Some of the bones belonged to
hembers of the Moropus animal
r0liO.
