event, you are required to submit
information concerning any sale of
your home at profit, whether or
not The gain is taxable
When you buy a home you gem
orally agree with the previous
| owner on schedule of adjustments
Tor taxes, insurance, water rates
and similar items. However. you
and the previous owner can deduct
this real estate tax in proportion to
the number of days OF the property
tax year that each of you held the
property-Whether or not you have
agreed to apportion the tax. You
are considered to have paid your
share Of the tax when you bought
the home. This applies to any real
estate you may have purchased
during 1856.
Dedueiible Auto Expenses
From the time you buy an auto
mobile you begin to have other ex-
penses which are deductible on
your federal income tax return.
Any state or local sales tax you
paid on the car purchase is deduc-
tiRle. So is the cost of your license
plates. state inspection fees and
interest on an auto loan.
A common deduction in many
taxpayers returns is for state gas
oline tax. 1t is best to keep a rec
ord of your gasoline purchases dur
ing the year. but if you don't have
such a record you can still make
reasonable estimate.
II you had a collision, you may
be able to deduct for the damage
to your own car not covered by in.
surance Although driving may
have been faulty, you are entitled
to the deduction if the accident was
not due to your negligence.
Such loss. or loss from fire,
theft or other accidents is deter
mined in the manner described
above in connection with damage
to house.
The instruction book which comes
with your tax forms gives further
information. Help is also available
by telephone or at Offices of the In
ternal Revenue Service. The Rev
enue Service urges you to consult
a properly qualified advisor if yon
decide to seek outside help.

Tobacco Farmers
Advised to Get Quality

Amelia county tobacco farmers,
1875 strong, We're cautioned Thurs
day to do a better job in handling
their tobacco in line with the re-
cent acreage reductions.
X The farmers attending one of a
series of meeting being held
throughout this area were advised
to strive for quality rather than
quantity tobacco in the coming
growing season.
Disease control and plant bed
management were also suggested
as ways Of offsetting the acreage
cuts, as was sucker control to IN
crease the yield and dollar value

to the board. he realized that
his chances of bringing in the
diamond suit were slim. How
ever. he cashed the ace and king
of diamonds. hoping the queen
would drop.
No luck. On the second dia-
mond lead Mr.. Abel showed out,
discarding the trey of clubs.
Mr.. Masters then turned his
attention to his five-card club
suit. One way to handle it was
to go to dummy with the ace
of hearts. return a club and
finesSe the queen. Even though
the flnesse would have worked,
this was the wrong way to play
the hand and Mr.. Masters knew
it. He used a lighter (and safer)
touch.
He realized that with five
clubs still outstanding, including
the king. jack and ten. he would
have to lose one club trick no
matter how favorably the ad-
verse cards were distributed.
If this club had to be lost 1t
was essential to lose it at a time
when the defenders were not in
a position to run away with a
total of five tricks.
Mr.. Masters was not yet ready
to use that precious entry to the
dummy. Instead he led a small
club from his hand at trick four.
Mrs. Keen won with the ten
and had no good return. She was
out of spades, she couldn't cash
the queen of diamonds because
the ace Of hearts was still on the
board, and a club return would
obviously be just what Mr.. Mas
tiers wanted.
She did the best she could,
laying down the jack Of hearts.
Mr.. Masters did not cover this
with the queen. He played low
from his hand and won with
dummy's ace. Now he led an

WORDS, WIT

BY WILLIAM MORRIS

Wondering what ais you?
Well. cheer up-it's probably
only mental. At least that's the
belief Of many Of our leading
physicians who contend that a
large percentage Of human ills
are psychosomatic in origin.
The root causes Of psychoso-
matte illnesses can be found in
our phobias-those deep-seated
and quite unreasoning fears
which beset most Of us from time
to time. There are hundreds Of
phobias.
A child afraid Of night and
darkness is q victim Of "nocti-
phobia. Some people fear bright
lights. They are victims Of pho
tophobia.' II you blanch at the
thought Of going to the top of
the Empire State Building,
chances are you have q touch of
"acrophobia" fear of high
places.
Practically everyone has q
touch Of "anemophobia" - the
dread Of hurricanes and cyclones,
but "aelurophobes" are relatively
scarce. They are people who hate
cats. Many soldiers. including
some Of the bravest. are victims
of "ballistophobia." fear OF bull
lets. but it's q rare person who
is prone to "botanophobia I'M
tense dislike Of flowers and
plants.
Users Of soap that claims to
stop "B. o." may have q touch
|of "bromidrosiphobia." fear of
body odors. Vendors Of color tele-
vision sets will. I'm sure. have no
use for victims Of "chromopho-
bia"-dislike of colors.
Practically all Of US have suf-
fered at one time or another
from a touch Of "dentophobia, "
fear Of dentistry. but no sub
scriber to the philosophy that
mans best friend is his bed"
ever succumbed to "clinophobia. "
fear Of going to bed.
Those are Just Q few Of the
commoner phobias. II none Of
them seem to At your case. Just
possibly the reason is that you're

everything. Or maybe you're a

queen. When this held he cashed
the ace. then led the queen Of
spades. Mr.. Abel took the ace of
spades and returned the suit.
Thus Mr.. Masters won four
clubs. two diamonds. two spades
and heart for game.
If he had used the ace of
hearts to go to dummy for. the
first lead of clubs. he would have
lost his contract. On winning
with her sure club trick, Mrs.
Keen could have pushed the
jack Of hearts through the queen
and picked up three tricks in
that suit. These. with the two
black suit winners, would have

to recognize a union like play

The owners refused recog-

recognition for the association
in conferences with Bell last

Bell took the players case be-
fore the owners but after a
closed meeting in PHILADELPHIA
came out to announce the
league would not accept the
association as a bargaining
unit.
At one point Representative

Donovan Keeps
Senators Mired

Hook Up Tonight;
Lewis Puts On Act
BY BURTON HAWKINS

Jerry Lewis will work out
with the Senators tonight and
If he demonstrates the slightest
ability to spank a ball on the
nose he may make the club.
The Senators have been re-
stricted to five hits or less in
four of the last five games.
Manager Cookie Lavagetto still
won't regard that situation as
funny. regardless of how many
laughs the comedian extracts
from him before the tussle with
the White Sox.
President Eisenhower and
other dignitaries in a crowd
of 6,738 saw Chicago's Dick
Donovan limit Washington to
three hits. including Roy
Sievers' 18th homer, as the
White Sox surged to a I'll VIC
tory last night. Minnie Minoso
and Larry Dolby each dashed
a pair of homers o Russ KEN
merer.
It's no particular disgrace to
be beaten by Donovan these
days. In his last three starts.
against the Red Sox, Yankees
and Senators, he has allowed
only eight hits and three runs
in q innings. He shows an
l1-3 record.
5 Runs in 3 Games
But Donovan's slick work
he walked nobody-merely be-
came part of a pattern for the
Senators. They have stirred
up only five runs in the last
three games and all pitchers
are beginning to look pretty
much alike to them.
To accommodate those who
would like to see Lewis drill
with the Senators this evening.
the gates will be opened at
$50. with the theme being
anything for a laugh or per-

customers through the turn
stiles.
Donovan's lifetime mark
against the Senators now is
1873, the same set of figures
applying to Chicago's superb
GRITTY over Washington this
season. They've clinched the
season series with the Sena-
tors already, and If they don't
win the pennant it won't be
Washington's fault.
