Ava Truck Driver
Escapes Injury As
Bridge CoI|apses

Perry L. Roberts, of Ava,
escaped serious injury Thursday
when a bridge at Eldon, east of
Quaker City, gave way beneath
the truck he was driving.
The truck, which was loaded
with coal at the time of the ac-
cident, apparently caused the
bridge to collapse and as it gave
way, the truck upset.
Stanley Nicholozakes, of Cam
bridge, is the owner of the coal
truck which was hauling coal
from the Mt. Ephraim mine to
Eldon. 1t was only a few feet
from the tipple when the ac-
cident occurred.
The bridge had a 50-foot span
with an eight-ton load limit.
The accident halted through
traffic on Route 265 for a period
and disrupted mail and other
services in the Quaker City COM
munity.

Bob SeUest Gets
Nice Pay Increase

Former Congressman Robert
T. Secrest, of Noble county, has
received pay increase of $4,000
year as the result of bill
enacted last week to boost
salaries in the executive branch
of the government.
AS a member of the Federal
Trade Commission, he will now
receive $4,000 annually.
Soon after he resigned from
congress to take the ETC post for
seVen-year term, congress
voted itself an increase from
$4,000 to $22,500.
This led some of Secrest's
friends to remark that he had
quit congress at the wrong time.
However, he was saved the
expenses of a campaign every
two years and frequent trips
back to his home county.
Secrest still has a little more
than five years to serve on the
trade commission.

All Of the queen contestants,
who were riding on the back of
convertibles, were caught in the
terrible rain. Most of the girls
had spent several hours in the
local beauty parlors in prepara-

all the curls were ruined. But all
in all, the girls made a nice ap-
pearance later that evening when

The several different floats
which were included in the par
ade, were unable to stand up to
the rain and therefore, unable
to proceed. The Salem Liberty
band, the Crooksville band and
last of all the Caldwell band
were also among those in the
parade who were caught in the
rain. However, Caldwell band
members had rain jackets which
fit nicely over their uniforms to
protect them from getting too
wet.

Among the visiting firemen
and fire trucks, was a fire truck
from the Byesville fire depart
ment. Vincent Daniels, of ByeS-
vile, played a very important
part in this act. Vincent, who
was dressed as a clown, was run
ming alongside the fire truck
doing several stunts. He was the
center Of attraction at that par
ticular part Of the parade.
Wednesday, Thursday and Fri
day nights Of the festival were
also crammed with excitement
for everyone who was present
The main attraction on Wednes-
day night was the drill team
from East Liverpool, which put
on an excellent performance on
the west side Of the public
square.
Ihursday nlght the man at
traction was the band concert
presented by the Caldwell high
school band, and on Friday night
was the talent show.

Saturday evening, this festiva
was. far better and bigger thar
the two previous ones given by
the local fire department, which
could be attested to by the people
who attended any of the foul
nights.
One touring through Caldwell
on Sunday morning would never
have sensed the fact that two
sides Of the public square were
jammed with rides and conceS-
sions the previous night, as the
employees of the Briggs shows
and the Caldwell fire laddies
spent the entire night removing
the equipment from the streets
in preparation for their next
stop. They cleaned up com
pletely at $50 a. m., Sunday
morning.

doing. Let's follow his type Of
reasoning.
Mr.. Dale had led the seven of
hearts. Using the rule Of II we
deduct seven from IL and get
four, which represents the num-
Der 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 diff
ference which card was played
from the East hand. But if 1t
were the queen, it made a lot
of difference.
So, with nothing to lose and
much to gain, Mr.. Masters would
have played the jack of hearts
at his f1rSt chance.
''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"

IT just did that to irritate you"
And in this respect Mr.. Muzzy

lessly dropped the jack. If he had
been careful" and played the
nine, Mr.. Champion could have
made his contract, probably with
an overtrick.
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 the ace of that suit. Now.
if he has saved his jack of hearts,
he will lead that card.
But Mr.. Champion would
merely play low and let the jack
win, after which Mr.. Muzzy
would be out of the suit. There
would be no point in Mr.. Dale

up the queen in the closed hand.
AS the deal was actually played
Mr.. Champion led the queen Of
diamonds from dummy at trick
two and f1nesSed it. When this
held, he shifted to a club. which
he won with the 10. But when
the king of clubs was led next,
Mr.. Muzzy pounced on it with
the ace and returned the nine
of hearts.
Mr.. Champion played low and
Mr.. Dale overlook the 10 and ran
the entire suit.
