In today's deal, for example,
the seven of spades and the nine
of clubs played outstanding
roles. Against the four-spade
contract, Mrs. Keen led the king
of hearts. which won. She fol-
lowed with the queen of hearts
and Miss Brash ruffed.
The ten of spades was led and
flneSsed. Mr.. Abel won with the
queen and led his last heart.
Miss Brash ruffed. She laid
down the king of spades and
Mrs. Keen showed out, discard
ing a heart. She couldn't afford
to overtake with dummy'S ace
of spades because that play
would make Mr.. Abel's seven
spot an eventual winner.
So low spade was played
from dummy. It was now neces-
sary to find an entry to the
board. Rufflng third round of
diamonds was no good because
that would give Mr.. Abel a long
trump.
Miss Brash decided to try for
the entry in the club suit. She
led the trey and made the right
guess, putting in the nine spot
from the board. Mr.. Abel won
with the king and returned the
eight of diamonds.
After winning with the ace,
Miss BraSh entered dummy with
the jack of clubs and caShed the
ace and jack of spades on which
she parked the jack and seven
OF diamonds. The king of dia-
hlonds and the rest of the clubs
accounted for 10 tricks in all.
If the seven of spades had
been in Mr.. Champions hand,
the problem would have been
much easier. Miss BraSh could
have overtaken her king of
spades with the ace at trick five
and picked up Mr.. Abel's re-
manning trumps.

Death tries to break, but all in vain
To have, to loYe, and then to part

The years may wipe out many things
But this, they wipe out never
The memory of Ahe happy days
When we were Ill together.
Tho our hearts art sad and lonely
And we see yoHr vacant chair,
We trust in Jefus, look to heaven,
And think of OAR reunion there.

eral Court of three judges upheld
today the constitutionality of the

The legislation provides that
aliens returning from Alaska be

It's constitutionality was chal-
lenged by the Cannery Workers
Union (Ind), which complained
that some of its members faced
a threat of exclusion and loss of
property rights.
The court held that the power
of Congress in this matter was
the same as it's power to insist
on examination of persons seek
