Opening lead: Deuce of clubs.
This sort of hand is fairly
common. At the bridge table
you can't see which opponent
has the queen of spades. If you
guess wrong you may lose a
trump and three hearts.
If you play the trumps your
self, you may guess wrong. If
you play the other suits first,
however, you can force the OPP
ponents to break" the trumps.
Let's see how this works out
in our hand today. The same
general method can be used in
other hands that are dealt to
you at the table.
Take the first trick with the
king Of clubs. cash the ace of
diamonds and lead another club
to dummy's ace. Ruff a club in
your hand, ruff a diamond in
dummy and then lead dummy,s
last club.
You can't be sure which OPP
ponent holds the only missing
club. If East plays a club you
can discard a heart. AS it hap
pens East discards and you can
safely ruff dummy's last club.
Then you ruff your own last
diamond in dummy.
Hearts Next
The hearts are next. You
lead a low heart from dummy
secretly determined to play low
from your own hand no matter
what East plays. You lead the
suit from dummy. however. be-
cause if East has the ace he
may be obliging enough to play
it and solve your problem in
that way.
AS it happens East plays the
ten of hearts, holding the trick.
He continues with the jack of
hearts and this time you cover
with the king. West takes the
ace and then the queen of
hearts.
This leaves you with three
trumpS in your own hand.
Dummy holds two trumps and
a heart. You need all three
tricks, and you are sure to win
them no matter who has the
lqueen of trumps. No matter
what West does the lead comes
up to your trumps.
Just remember that there's
nothing in the Constitution that
forces you to play trumps first.
When you get this kind of hand
leave the trumpS alone until
the end.
Daily Question
AS dealer you hold:
AK765 V6532 o7%AK73
What do you say?
Answer: Pass. You would bid
this borderline hand if you had
a few tens and mines to bolster
it up.

Traffic Shift
On t4ih Street
Starts Today

A trafic rerouting plan to|
ease congestion on inbound
lanes Of Fourteenth street near
Jefferson Memorial win so into
effect at 4 pm today.
The rerouting was announced
yesterday by Wallace Braun,
chief Of the trafnc engineering
division Of the District High
way Department.
It viii enable inbound traf-
&c from the Highway Bridge To-
swing to the right as it leaves
the bridge, head under the
railroad tracks. take q sharp
left turn into Buckeye drive
near the East Potomac Park
tourist camp. then left again
under the railroad overpass Of
Ohio drive, and thence into
either Fifteenth street or Sew
enteenth street where these
thoroughfares skirt the Monu-
ment Grounds.
Mr.. Braun said appropriate
signs are being installed
to help steer motorists through
the admittedly intricate new
route. Motorists leaving the
Highway Bridge are urged to
stay in the right lane If they
wish to use the bypass to get
to Fifteenth and Seventeenth
streets. They should stay in
the left lanes If bound for
Fourteenth street.
Mr.. Braun explained that
trafic, especially in the morn
ing rush hour, gets particularly
snarled in this area, where four
lanes of Fourteenth street traf-
fic converge into three near JEFF
ferson Memorial. The traffic
count during the 7:30-S:30 am.
rush is close to 5,700. The day
long inbound traffic from the
bridge averages $4,000 cars.
Aside from alleviating con-
gestion near jefferson Memo
rial. the rerouting is designed
to spare inbound Fourteenth
street traffic the difficuIty of
making left turns at Independ-
ence avenue S.W. and Madison
drive to reach Seventeenth and
Fifteenth streets respectively.

Nose Cone Sighted

there is no support whatsoever
for that statement"
Both the Gray Line lawyer
and the commission staff were
curious to know just what Mr.
Chalk meant when he referred
in his letter of yesterday to his
sightseeing operations" In
the concessions he volunteered,
Mr.. Chalk offered to begin pay
ing the District motor vehicle
fuel tax on all his sightseeing
operations, effective last July !
He said he also was willing
to work out. If possible, an
agreement with the commits
sion staff on rules for the
ALLEGATION Of all appropriate
revenue and expense items con-
nected with his sightseeing op-
erations.
Term Clarified
Mr.. Spear agreed to clarity
that particular definition and
Immediately did so in a fast
telephone call to Mr.. Chalk
The understanding now is that
all references in the letter to
Sightseeing include that service
specifically, and also .. G.
Transit's charter bus service,
its limousine service and its
Government contract activities,
Mr.. Chalk yesterday made il
plain to reporters that his offer
to exclude all his sightseeing
operations for the purpose of
establishing mass transit rates
should have the effect Of elm
mating his sightseeing com-
petitors as intervenors in the
rate case.
The commission stated fatty
that these competitors are in
the case as intervenors to stay.
The only question in that con-
nection they will rule on when
the rate hearing is resumed on
Tuesday is the extent to which
the intervening firms may par
ticipate.
Principal business Of the
Tuesday session will be cross
examination of James H. Flan-
agan, d. c. Transit vice presi-
dent and controller. on his

Search for Nose Cone

The mouse was housed in an
air-tight capsule inside the

creature to fly so far into space
aboard a United States missile.

The chances OF finding the

price was excessive and "far
above the fair value Of the
underlying assets" Mr.. Chalk
asserted:
During the discussions, Mr..
Burroughs made a statement
that should pay him the price
requested because it would be
cheaper for me to buy him out
than for me to compete with
him"
Mr.. Chalk did not specify
what the asking price was.
BY implication Mr.. Chalk in
his affidavit attached signifi-
canoe to the fact that shortly
after the breakdown in the
negotiations, Gray Line fled
complaints with the House
Select Committee on Small
Business against D. c. Transit's
sightseeing operations. He
noted that shortly after hear
ings by the committee on these
operations, Gray Line success
fully applied to intervene in
the utilities commission rate
case involving mass transit
fares.
Mr. Chalk characterized the
Gray Line complaints before
both the committee and the
commission as inaccurate.
incorrect and unjustiflably
critical of d. C. Transit.
Action Explained
Ostensibly explaining why
D. C. Transit sought a sworn
deposition from Mr.. Burroughs,
Mr.. Chalk said that, while the
Gray Line intervention petition
contends D. C. Transit COM
petes directly with Gray Lines
sightseeing operations, it fails
to state that for the past many
months Gray Line has been en-
deavoring to force D. c. Transit
to discontinue all of It's sight
seeing operations"
Along these lines Attorney
Spear today accused Gray Line
of violating antitrust laws by
filing its Intervention petition.
Gray Line Attorney G. Duane
Vieth called this claim 'incom-
prehensible." He said that if
the transit firm has any anti
trust complaint it should be
filed in the Federal courts.
He charged, on the other
hand, that D. c. Transit actu-
ally was only trying to harass
and oppress Gray Line and ex-
anime its president on purely
irrelevant issues"
Collision Charged
AT one point in the argument
Mr.. Spear charged that other
local sightseeing firms were
working with Gray Line to try
to force Mr.. Chalk either to buy
out Gray Line at an excessive
figure or to discontinue d. C.
Transit's sightseeing services
Mr.. Vieth hotly contended that
