Adams Case

This business Of the pot
calling the kettle black about
being a kept man reminds me
of the story about a politician
in one Of our neighboring re-
publics to the south.
Recognizing the realities Of
politics as practiced in his
country and giving the poems
credit for average intelli-
gence. this gentleman cam
paigned not on a promise Of
strict integrity in the Office
he was seeking but cried. in
stead, that his opponent was
"crookeder than I am"
I voted for this outfit and
am still with it, especially
the clean up the mess in
Washington" part, although
/ now doubt that anything
short Of an atom bomb could
do that. But I wish Mr.. Eli
senhower and some others
would do a little backside-
kicking rather than so much
face-saving.

Opening lead: -Four Of hearts.
In today's deal he led the
four Of hearts against Mr..
Dale'S three-no-trump contract.
The old master decided that to
lay on this trick would only
point up his weakness in the
suit. He could see that It was
impossible to win nine tricks
unless he got at least one dia-
mond. and that meant sur
rendering the lead.
He therefore made nice
strategic move, promptly win
ming the first trick with the ace
of hearts over Mr.. Champions
king.
At trick two he laid down the
jack of diamonds. Now Mr..
Heinsite couldn't know for sure
that the hearts were all good.
From Mr.. Dale's play at trick
one it seemed more likely that
the old boy had started some
thing like ace-jack-smali in the
suit. And the diamond play at
trick two looked like a finesse
was coming up. Cunningly Mr..
HeinSite played low-and the
jack Of diamonds held.
Mr.. Dale then lost no time in
running OF three spades and
four clubs for his game.

five clubs was cold on the
North-South cards? Would he
dig up some fancied justifica-
ton for failing to 60 up with
the ace of diamonds at trick
two? Would he compliment Mr..
Dale on his good deceptive
play?
No, none Of these. Instead
he named every card in Mr..
Dale's hand. Am I right?" he
asked. WAS that the hand you
started with?"

Once One Of Finest
When it was built, Garfield
was considered one of the finest
hospitals in the country. For
a long time, regular additions
and improvements kept it in
the first rank. In all, 20 build
ings were erected on the IL
acre hilltop site at Tenth street
and Florida avenue NV.
But time caught up with
Garfield and brought the day
when the merger with Emer-
tails in the new center became
necessary.
Garfield was founded by q
citizens group which collected
money by popular subscription
for a permanent memorial to
the late President Garfield in
, the form of general hospital. "
1t was established as private
institution and only received
Government grants after it had

It got its first elevator in
1887, its first ambulance in
1888. 1t graduated its first
class of nurses in 1891. An
X-ray laboratory was installed
in 1902. It's space was increased
from 80 beds in the first build
ings to more than 300 in recent
years.
