D. c. Teacher
Reinstuted

A District school teacher who
admitted classifying her age to
get her job was reinstated yes
terday after a four-week suspen-
sion.
The teacher, Miss Georgia
A. Peters, was ordered trans
ferred from Cardozo Hig h
School to a new assignment on
the school systems research
staff, however. She formerly
taught English.
The Board of Education or
dered the reinstatement after
learning that school officials had
violated veterans preference
rules in suspending Miss Peters
on March 81 without 80 days
notice.
Miss Peters, at a hearing be-
fore the boards Complaints and
Appeals Committee last Satur-
day, said she had falsified her
age in 1850 because she feared
she would be ineligible for q
teacher appointment otherwise.
Actually. the board was told
that, as a former WAC. she
was entitled to o waiver on the
maximum age for teacher ap-
pointments. The maximum Is
As, and Miss Peters at the time
Of her appointment was 50.
The school board left the
way open for School Supt Ho-
bart M. Corning to file written
charges against Miss Peters, but
a Corning aide indicated the
case probably is closed.

In today's deal Mr.. Dale took
q peSsimistic view of his spade
holding until he heard his part
ner's raise. At the beginning he
valued it at slightly better than
three tricks. After the raise it
went up in his estimation to
good solid four tricks or better.
He therefore had the necessary
seven playing tricks for a Jump
to game.
Mrs. Fusty opened the eight
Of diamonds and Mr.. Masters
won the first two tricks in that
suit. He then made the excel
lent decision to lead a third
diamond. Mrs. Fusty's play of
the deuce at trick two indicated
she was now out of the suit. If
she could ruff the third dia-
mond, 1t would take dun1my's 10
of trumps to win and that de-
velopment would make Mr..
Masters spade holding good for
o trick.
This was a good play and
when Mrs. Fusty ruffed the
third diamond 1t was a tempta-
ton to overruff on the board.
Mr.. Dale was good enough to
Withstand the temptation of this
natural play.
He had a heart loser on the
hand so he just discarded the
four of hearts from dummy.
Mrs. Fusty won the trick and
returned the five of hearts. Mr..
Dale went up with dummy's
king and played the jack Of
spades. When it wasn't covered
he let it ride. He then f1nessed
the queen of spades. cashed the
ace and spread the hand for 10
tricks.
If he had made the mistake
OF overruffing Mrs. Fusty with
dummy's 10 of spades at trick
three, he would have lost the
hand. In addition to two dia-
monds and heart, he would
have had to lose a spade trick to
