back up on deck.
Eight foreign correspondents
and six Chinese reporters and
about 80 troops were already
in our small boat and another
one being loaded on the other
side Of our landing ship.
? Our convoy consisted Of our
: landing ship carrying 400 men
to reinforce Quemoy and sew
eral escort patrol boats. We
had been fighting rough seas
eall the way and dropped anchor
a miles offshore to get into
the small boats when the Com
munists attacked.
Kept Up Running Battle
The Red torpedo boats kept
up a running battle with our
fiotilla for an hour and 10 min
utes. We took evasive action
and tried to pick up the men
in the small boats, but We could
not find them in the darkness.
Officers on our ship said they
thought the small boats would
be able to make it to shore.
Nationalist headquarters
on FormoSa later reported
that the boats with the corre-
spondents and the troops had
reached Quemoy safely)
After maneuvering in circles
during the hours of darkness,
We returned to the Pescadores.
There were no hits : on our
landing ship, an Ism Qanding
ship medium, but the Reds
fired many rounds across our
bow and aft.
This morning as we headed
back to the Pescadores (about
80 miles southeast of Quemoy)
we had a Commute submarine
alert. For about an hour be-
fore the naval battle, we could
see heavy Communist Smelling
of Quemoy from shore batteries.
Escort Vessel Hit
This morning one of the Ma

brought into the Pescadores
under tow. 1t had been hit and

Uno de los paises mas esfor-

contra Ell aqua, su mortal y nun

Sobre el Norte, los vientos
del Oeste y ell trabajo lento del

New Magnets
Boost Power
In A-Smasher

A new atom smasher viii be
three times as powerful as the
biggest now In existence but
will use only about one-ninth as
much steel In It's magnets. SCI
entists we're told today.
In q paper presented at the
opening OF the three-day spring
meeting OF the American Phys
ical Society. r. A. Beth de-
scribed new construction meth
DDS that viii be used on the
80 billion-volt proton accel-
orator now being built at Brook
haven National Laboratory. The
largest Synchrotron now In
existence is q l0-billion-volt
model in the Soviet Union.
Great Precision Necessary
Where the Russian atom
smasher used $4,000 tons Of
steel in its magnets. the new
Brookhaven device win use only
1000 tons. However, the big
ger but lighter one requires
great precision in both the
manufacture and the placement
Of its magnets. Mr.. Beth said.
The Brookhaven physicist ex-
planned that the Alternating
Gradient Synchrotron. or
"AGS," will have magnets made
Of layers Of steel only $4,000
inch in thickness. The magnets
are built up Of many layers and
are tested for accuracy and
magnetic uniformity at Brook
haven.
Construction of the huge
proton-gun is a combination Of
heavy industry and Swiss-watch
methods. Although the magnets
win flll an underground circle
nearly $50 feet in diameter.
they have to be set in place to
tolerances of only lj100 Of an
inch. And though the magnets
will enclose a vacuum cham
Der half a mile long, they have
to be so similar magnetically
that control is exercised over
the patches of steel from which
they are made.
The synchrotron, five times
as powerful as the biggest one
now in use In the United States.
will be used in studies of things
smaller than the atom. 1t will
work by shooting protons-
positively charged particles
in three-second bursts at speeds
very near that of light. These
lprotons, hustled through a high
vacuum for thousands of miles,
build UP terrific energy which
enables them to smash atoms.
Hundreds Of Reports Due
The paper was one Of the
first of hundreds to be pre-
scented at sessions at the Sher-
aton-Park Hotel, the Shoreham
Hotel and the National Bureau
of Standards. The Sheraton
Park is headquarters for the
meeting, which is expected to
attract about 1000 physicists.
A highlight of the scientific
convention will be a discussion
of thermonuclear hydrogen
research development. In adj
dition. last years Nobel prize

Opening lead: Six Of hearts.
For example he knows some
thing about holdup plays
ducking the first lead of a suit
to gain some kind Of an ad-
vantage. In this particular
hand ducking the first lead
turned out to be a distinct dis
advantage.
The opening lead was the six
Of hearts and Mr.. New lost no
time playing the trey from the
board. If the lead happened
to be from a holding headed
by K-10 or Q-10 Mr.. Dale
would win the first trick. but
then dunn my's remaining
hearts would bottle up the suit
very satisfactorily.
Good reasoning. but not ap-
plicable to this deal. What
about the other suits? Spe-
officially. what about the spade
suit? Mr.. Dale won the first
trick and promptly shifted to
a low spade. From there on
Mr.. New had no chance for his
contract.
His ace of spades was
knocked out while Mr.. Masters
still had the ace of diamonds
for an entry and the defenders
took three spades, a heart and
q diamond.
Correct play in this case was
to win the first trick with the
ace of hearts and shift to
diamonds. continuing that suit
until the ace was knocked out.
At that point it would be ex-
tremely unlikely that the de-
tenders could run off four
heart trickS-which they would
have to do to beat the hand.
When considering holding up
in a suit it pays to check your
whole hand to make sure that
a switch to a new suit will not
prove more embarrassing than
the play Of the suit opened.
