South West North East
IL Pass 10 Pass
3NT All pass
Opening lead: Trey of spades.
There was nothing particularly
dificult about finding the right
line Of play. although it did re-
quire a bit of thinking. Mr..
Muzzy went set because he was
not prepared to make an unusual
playa play that was outside
the regular pattern Of his game.
The trey of spades was opened
and he ducked it. permitting Mr..
Champion to win with the ten.
The jack Of spades was returned
and he won with the king. Here
he realized that he would have
to win at least six tricks In the
minor suits to make his contract.
He wanted to finesse clubs first
as that would be eliminating an
entry from the hand with the
long, dangerous spade suit. But
how could he finesse clubs when
the lead was in his own hand?
Should he lead to dummy's ace
Of diamonds-the only quick en-
try on the board? Unthinkable.
Should he simply lay down the ace
and another club? That was even
worse ;. or so Mr.. Muzzy thought.
That would be losing a trick If
the king of clubs happened to be
In Mr.. Champions hand.
On this note Of false economy,
Mr.. Muzzy led the queen Of dia-
monds and let it ride. Mr..
Champion won with the king and
knocked out the last spade stop
per. Now. after winning three
diamond tricks. Mr.. Muzzy had
to take the club finesse. When
that lost Mr.. Abel's spades we're
enough to defeat the contract.
Two precautions had to be
taken in this hand. First. the
holdup at trick one. Second, re-
moving the king Of clubs from
Mr.. Abel's hand at the first OPP
portunity. The winning play was
to cash the ace Of clubs at trick
three and promptly follow with
Z the queen. If Mr.. Champion held
the king, it would make no diff
ference. He could win with it
and knock out Mr.. Muzzy's last
spade. Later. however. when he
got IN with the king Of diamonds
ne would have no spade to lead.

Getting the Facts in Red China
Is Hopeless, NeWsman Says

TAIPEI, FormoSa - NC
- Now that there is some
discussion about lifting the
ban against US. newsmen
visiting Red China. the re.
cent experiences of a Can
adam journalist are of con-
siderable interest.
William Kinmond of the
Toronto Globe and Mail is in
Taipei currently after completing
a 10-week trip through the BAN.
boo curtain into Red China.
Mr.. Kinmond has come away
with very definite views about
factfinding trips on the commu-
nist-held mainland.
According to the Canadian
journalist, getting all the facts in
Red China is "a hopeless task"
However, he does feel that an in

ly, and enough time, can even
tually obtain a fairly accurate
impression.
After his trip-the first to Red
China-Mr. Kinmon emphasized
that a lengthy stay is necessary.
II was in Red China too long
from the point of view of the
communists" he remarked. His
expenses ran high, every move he
made cost much money, but he
managed to remain behind the
bamboo curtain for 10 weeks.

Mr.. Kinmond travelled freely
wherever he wished. His reserva-
tions, of course, were made
through an interpreter as were
all his contacts and converse

Only the coastal provinces
were forbidden him. Also, his re-
quest to visit a prison was turned
down or ignored.

FIR. John B. Kelly Dies

NEW YORK, NY, NC) - Fa-
Their John Bernard Kelly, SO, poet,
essayist, and spiritual director of
the Catholic Writers Guild for
America for more than 35 years,
died here at .Misericordia Hos
pital.
Father Kelly was the author
of "The Son of Man and Other
Poems and Essays" "The Ro-
nance of TRUTH" and Heaven
Is a Circus" a volume of chill
dren's verse.
He was a close friend and bio
grapher of the late Cardinal
Hayes, Archbishop of New York.
Another close friend was the
late Joyce Kilmer, poet-soldier of
World War 1.
The Catholic times. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1951-current, 1957-08-02

the Canadian journalist Travelled
northeast to Manchuria where he
visited Hardin and other cities.
Next, Mr.. Kinmond went to
northwest China where he visited
Sian and Lanchow. Next he trav'
eled to the Szechwan province OF
southwestern China where he Wis.
tied the provincial capital of
Chengtu and Chungking, the war
time capital of nationalist China.
Finally, he reached the port
city of Shanghai by way of WI
han, the complex of three cities
Hankow, Hanyang, and Wuchang
at the junction of the 1angtze
and Han rivers.
By endless and repeated ques-
tons, and by correlating his OBJ
servations in many places, Mr..
Kinmond was able to scratch a
little below the surface of the
communist nation.
In this manner he found proof
of the deadly control which the
street committees possess to reg
ulate and check all activities of
the people.
Likewise, he came to recog-
nize the in~efficiency of the col
lective farms, where output less
ems through lack of personal in
centive.
Mr.. Kinmond became irked
with the constant repetition of
how everything that was new was
good and how everything good
was new.
He was not too impressed by
the Wanted advances, technical
and otherwise, and pointed out to
his guides that there should
naturally be certain material
progress under any government
during a 10-year period.

MORE AND HIGHER EDUCATION

MORE AND HIGHER EDUCATION
THIS E A record number of Virgin Islanders are
graduating from colleges and universities on the mainland,
which speaks well for us all Time was when only an isolated
case could be noted, and when a college degree was rare in
deed. Not SO today, and fortunately.
FTHESE islands are to make progress, if we are to take
our place in the democratic scheme of things, if we are to
command respect and eventually become sef-supportng in
every way, then one of the SureSt and most effective methods
will have to be through an enlightened chizenry. And while
it. is true that relatively speaking only a handful Of our people
earn college degrees, the enlightenment and educational ad-
vancement of the great majority will be in proportion to the
extent Of the higher education available.
SINCE WE DO not have a college or university here
the next step is to 60 where the training can be had. The
question, however, is whether these graduates can and will
return to share with their fellow citizens the benefits OF their
training. One Of the great inducements is through a system
of scholarships having as one of their requirements a promise
on the part Of the recipient to return and work in some
capacity.
THIS YEAR, O example, graduates have specialized
in such fields as music, teacher training, education, industrial
education, medicine, home economics and others. And among
the colleges represented are Jefferson Medical College, Tenn
pie University, Hampton Institute, Howard University, and
Morgan State College, and others.
IN ADDITION TO Undergraduate courses many OF our
trained citizens may be thinking in terms of advanced work.
and here, too, much assistance can be given with a view to
making good use of such training, when received. In the held
of education, many States require that teachers improve their
training as time passes, and we can do the same.
THINGS ARE LOOKING up in education, and it will
not be long before the direct connection between higher
education and an improved community will become SO ev1-
dent that there will be no room for doubt or question.
