Mr.. Dale opened his fourth
best heart. the seven. Dummy's
king won and Mr.. Muzzy. intend
ing to play the nine, carelessly
dropped the jack. If he had been
careful and played the nine,
Mr. Champion would have made
four no-trump.
See how this works out. Mr..
Champion, in order to take as
many as nine tricks, must set up
his clubs. Therefore, Mr.. Muzzy
is, bound to gain the lead with
his ace. Now If he has saved his
Jack of hearts. he will lead that
card. But Mr.. Champion will
merely play low and let the jack
win. There is no point in Mr..
Dale's oveftaking with the ace
CHS last entry because that will
set up the queen in the closed
hand.
g, AS the deal was actually
played. the queen of diamonds
was led at the second trick and
It held. Next came a small club
and Mr.. Champion won with the
ten. Mr.. Muzzy pounced on the
next club lead and returned the
nine of hearts. Mr.. Champion
played low and Mr.. Dale over
took with the ten. and ran the
entire heart suit.
A player like Mr.. Masters
would have played the jack of
hearts at trick one, too. But he
would have known what he was
doing. Let's follow his type of
reasoning.
Mr.. Dale had led the seven of
hearts. Using the rule of eleven,
we deduct seven from eleven and
get four, which represents the
number of hearts higher than
the seven outside of Mr.. Dale's
hand.
Mr.. Masters would have seen
three of these in his own hand
and dummy. Therefore, Mr..
Champion would be known to
have only one heart higher than
the seven. If that card were the
ace, it would make no difference
which card was played from the
East hand at trick one.
But if it were the queen, it
would make a lot Of difference.
So, having much to gain and
nothing to lose, Mr.. Masters
would have decided to play the
jack of hearts at his first OPP
portunity.
Let this be a lesson to you,
Champion, not to bid those shaky
no-trump games when I'm on the
defense" kidded Mr.. Muzzy after
the jack of hearts play had been
explained to him.
Don't try to take any credit"
snapped Mr.. Champion. "You
admitted at the time that you
played the jack by mistake"
mo. no. Mr.. Muzzy replied.
II just did that to irritate you"
And in this respect Mr.. Muzzy
was, as usual, eminently sue
ceSsful.

Famous Fables
BY E. {. Edgar

DlSCORD--EngllSh COM
poser Sir Edward Elgar,
one summer, rented a man
sion in the South of Eng
land. A few days after he
and his wife moved in. they
invited a group of friends
for the weekend.
When the guests were
shown to their rooms, it was
discovered that there were
no bells with which to sum-
mon servants. This could
have precipitated a social
crisis. but Elgar, a resource
full host. quickly remedied
the situation.
In a nearby toy store, he
bought an assortment Of
children's noise-makers; a
toy trumpet, a whistle. a
miniature drum, ETC., each
producing its own distinc-
tive sound. Each of the
guests was given one of
these toys and the domestic
staff was told which had re-
ceived the toy.
When the trumpet'S mar
tial blare broke the morning
stiffness, the servants knew
at once Lord So-and-So was
ready for his breakfast.
When the whistles thin
peep drifted downstairs. her
Ladyship on the second
floor desired a cup of tea.
The only difficulty arose
wnen several guests needed
attention at the same time.
Then the din which ensued
was so nerve-shattering that
the servants would scurry
about in bewilderment. Ell
gar, listening at his door.
would vince at the discord
but chuckle with delight
over the general confusion.

SOMETHING 70 CRITICIZE

SOMETHING 70 CRITICIZE
NCT YER LONG ago we heard the criticism that
II AVIS was not a fighting paper; that it did not come
forth with guns blaring, to the satisfaction of those who be-
lieve that a fighting paper is one which is forever on the war
path.
ORDINARILY, such comments should be discounted
except for the fact that in finding expression in certain quar-
tiers they pick up momentum and may be. quickly shared by
others. Blazing out heAfre day in and day out may be ap-
pTealing to the primitive mind, but in this day and time it
serves little or no purpose.
HI ALSO it is that there is a serious effort to,caI
attention to any situation which hurts our community regard
less of where the chips fall. In this connection a situation has
arisen which should be checked as soon as possible. Om.
youth are posing a problem, which if not checked, could
mount into something serious. With apparently little or moth
ing is the fact that this situation, allowed to continue, could
nightly. Since they have have nothing to do, and are not
concerned with anything either for their own welfare or that
of the community, these boys turn their attention to mischief.
PEOPLE. WHO walk the streets, minding their own
business, find that the unkind and often lewd remarks Of
these young men help to turn the public streets into anything
but safe and pleasant places. But what is even more disturb
ing is the fact that this situation, allowed to continue, could
breed the typeof gangs which-could easily meance the place,
and pose a new and more serious problem for the police.
THOSE WHO would criticize this paper for not taking
a stand could start here and now to lend support in a move
ment to help clear the street corners Of young men and boys
who make themselves a nuisance and threaten the safety
and welfare Of our citizens, including girls and young women.
TO US THERE is another point just as serious. These
Young men are going to Be full grown citizens Of tomorrow.
1t takes little Imagination to visualize the type of community
we could have with such boys growing into manhood And
this IS no matter to be taken lightly. A place is known by the
, 1954-01-15

people who occupy it and if St. Croix is to be a safe, whole
some, and pleasant place in which to live, that segment Of
the community which has no sense Of direction should Be
given the fullest possible Of ~help-right now.
