an event at which large num-

it meant any formal show or

used as the title of his piece, in
fact, comes from the line in
Othello: "The Pomp and Cir

WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

QUESTION: Did you ever
wake up in the middle of the
night puzzling over something
trifiing and silly, knowing that
the matter that puzzles you is
not worth the time you're CIV
ing to it-but still unable to
forget it and get to sleep?
Well. that's what happened to
me last night and. rather than
spend any more sleepless nights
on 1T, I'm turning the problem
over to you.
My son plays trumpet in the
high school band. At gradua-
ton in June they're going to
play "Pomp and Circumstance"
by Elgar. My problem is this:
What on earth is "circurn-
stance" doing in that title. I
know what circumstance means
-as in the circumstances sur
rounding my lack of sleep
but what has it got to do with
such elaborate formal music as
"Pomp and Circumstance"

Opening lead: damon d
deuce.
West opens the deuce of dia-
monds and East takes two dia-
mond tricks. East then returns
a heart, and you win in dummy
with the ten.
Let's suppose that you cannot
see all of the cards. You know
that West has led from a four
card diamond suit, since he led
the deuce. Hence East started
with five diamonds to the ace
queen. Could East also have
the king of spades? Impossible.
He passed over one club. He
would have been happy to bid
one diamond If he had any
side strength.
AS soon as you have located
the king of spades in the West
hand you should know how to
begin the trumps. Lead a low
spade from dummy.
Finesse the Nine
When East plays low finesse
the nine from your hand. (This
might drive out the king, since
East might have J-I0-x and
play his low.trump) AS it hap
pens West wins with the JAG
Of trumpS. West returns a
heart, and you win with the
jack.
Now you must guess. Who
started with only two spades
West or East? If West, the
king is now alone and you can
lead a low trump to dummy's
lace. If East, the ten is now
alone and you can lead the
queen of spades through West.
You have a fair chance to come
to the right decision. East has
more diamonds than West, so
the odds are that West has.
more spades than East.
When you lead the queen of
spades you f1neSSe through
Vests king and pick UP East's
ten at the same time. If West
plays low your queen wins the
trick; if West covers you win
with dummy's ace and can draw
the last trump with your own
established eight of trumps.
Daily Question
AS dealer you hold:
AQ9863 8AKJ7 1J8 IA 10
What do you bid?
Answer: One spade. You
will be in position to bid the
hearts next, thus allowing part

Given To
| Case

The Zoning Board has con-
tinued hearings on two of three
cases that went before it Tues
day.
A request by Mrs. Helen c.
Burr, 1885 Knowles st., for a
temporary rooming house Ii
cense for three roomers was
granted. Her license had lapsed
earlier this year.
The results of a survey will
have to be presented to the
Board before John Ricciardi,
1861 Penrose ST., will be per-
mitted to move his house two
feet to the south. Riccardi
wants to make this move in
order to make room for a drive
way in his yard. He wants per-
mission to waive the three-foot
property line requirement to
save his bay window which will
be closer to the property line
than the law permits.
A search of the records will
be necessary before Wendell
Kemerer, 1894 Strathmore
ave., can be granted permission
to install a kitchen sink in the
third floor suite of his property.
A technicality with the records
is to be Strengthened out and
explained to the Board when

Enjoyed The Ship
Lake Cruise
Was Ideal
ForFomiIy
by Katherine BOst

Friends and neighbors are
asking about Community Day
aboard the S. S. Aquarama.
The continuous cruise to De-
troit on Monday, August 17th,
was strictly family fare.
Even the seasoned traveller
was impressed with the unlock
ing and docking of a man.
mouth ship, and it was certain
ly educational for the majority
watching. The expediency with
which cars were driven aboard
and ashore was amazing.
From the time we were well
coined aboard until we docked
it was GAS you like it" for all
ages. Even the weather was
varied enough to suit all per-
sonalities. There was a brisk
breeze and overcast skies when
we left; sunny and warm as we
approached Detroit and all calm
and clear returning to Cleve-
land. Comfort during the en-
tire cruise at % miles an hour.
ENTERTAINMENT: w h e n
the travellers settled down to
their various tastes, some
played cards and games; other
participated in other entertain
ment and more just relaxed.
For the very young there is
Children's Playroom enclosed in
glass with an attendant in
charge. Strolling the decks one
observed a portrait painter and
a silhouette artist, with the
usual models and audiences. For
those who leaned toward the
drama, there was a puppet
show, TV and movies. Dancing
to orchestra music was availtble
in the afternoon and evening.
Local talent was also enjoyable.
DINING aboard ship is al
ways an adventure. There is the
Mariners Bar Cafeteria style);
the club sandwich and soda bar
with table d'hote menu selec-
ton. Some families toted their
own lunch and bought bever-
ages.
Appointments of the ship are
colorful, in good taste, clean.
new and modern. There is even
escalator and elevator service.
The environment Monday was
more country club than carni-
val and sans rowdyism.
CAMERA enthusiasts had a
field day with ship and shore
shots. Going up the Detroit Riv-
er with Canadian soil on either
side and seeing various types
Of boats, tugs and steamers
was a thrill.
Breezy weather and the
lounge chairs indoors provided

train all night we arrived in
historic Heidelberg at 7:15
a. m. and promptly set out to
see the famous city. We visited
a 700-year-old castle which was
built into the side of a noun
tain. In it's museum celler we
saw two of the largest beer
kegs in the world. A pictures
que garden surrond e d the
castle.
"That afternoon l had an
opportunity to see the Ger
man people in their colorful
Bavarian costumes. In the
evening, we attended a cOmbi-
nation carnival and beer fes-
tival in Heidelberg. There
was a huge tent and inside
this tent there was much
dancing, singing, and beer
drinking by the people of Ba-
varia and other curious peO-
pie (me). We walked back
to our rented room in the
nOisier section of the city
and retired"
Dale then goes on to describe
his trip to the capital city of
West Germany, Bonn. From
there they went to Cologne
where Dale was much impressed
with the cross-shaped cathedral
which is one of the most beau
tiful churches in the world. He
also commented that Cologne
"Had about as many American
tourists as German inhabitants.
Dale continues his travel
tales, "We walked all over the
pretty little town of Rheine and
observed many fishermen on
the river. Later on that day we
met another A.F.S'er, Karen
of Long Island. We
compared experiences for about
an hour then my foster father
and ! returned to Neumunster." "
That concludes Dale's latest
report and it will most likely
he his last one until re returns
home filled with enthusiams to
tell and retell the incidents of
his life in a German family.

Lost Bow
Uncovers
Kindness

A very young man who has
"a way of stirring up the fam
lily upon his arrival" according
to his grandmother, Mrs. Har-
old Red, 1880 East 142nd ST.,
has made his family more fully
aware of what wonderful people
neighbors really are.
John Lever, 7, of Hicksville,
Long Island, has been visiting
his grandparents with his par
ents Mr.. and Mrs. John Lever
Sr., and his other four siblings.
Monday, Johnny and his sis
ter, Kathy, 9, went to pay Shaw
playground a visit. After hav-
ing their fun with the play
things, they decided to go back
to Granny's. BUT Johnny got
lost in the shuttle and that's
where the neighbors came in.
No sooner had the playground
staff made the announcement
that Johnny was lost, and the
police were securing the area
looking for him, neighbors ia
miliar to the Reeds and Leev-
ers as well as unknown neigh
bors and assorted youngsters
were combing the streets in
search of him.
Meanwhile, Johnny had wan
dered over into Cleveland with
tear-filled eyes and made his
very own announcement that he
was lost to Charles Fursdon,
Is, who in turn took him to the
Cleveland police station at Ida
rose. The East Cleveland police
contacted the Cleveland police
and discovered that they had
the boy.
The East Cleveland police re-
turned Johnny to his grateful
family, the neighbors heaved a
sigh of relief, Johnny's folks
were pleased as punch to dis
cover how helpful everyone was,
and Johnny stopped crying. The
entire episode took three hours
The first time Johnny came
to Cleveland, there was some
family commotion involved also.
All the other Lever children
were born in New York, but not
Johnny! He arrived during his
parents July vacation in 1852.
He wasn't expected until Aug
ust. Thanks to him his parents
had a longer vacation then they
anticipated.

He has made out a list o1
some of the differences in daily
living that he noted almost as
soon as he stepped on German
soil. These ten things impressed
him:
l. Except for special holi-
days, Germans wear the same
type of clothing as do citizens
of the United States.
2. There are many automo-
biles on Germany's narrow
streets.
3. The menu is much the
same in the two countries ex-
cept that there is not as big
a variety in Germany.
4. Bread and potatoes are
served with every meal and
lunch is the principal meal.
5. There is a slight differ
ence in the eating habits.
One holds his fork in his left
hand and always has his right
hand resting on the table.
6. Since most houses have
no running hot water, the
cold water must be boiled
and baths become more of a
luxury.
z. Soccer is the most pop
ular sport.
s. As far as Dale has OBJ
served, there is no serious
juvenile delinquency problem.
8. Teenagers are very cour-
teOus to adults and it is a Gus.
tom to shake hands upon
meeting and leaving a person.
10. Drinking beer and
smoking cigarettes is not
frOwned upon. Anyone at at
any age can buy beer or ciga-
rettes.
Dale has also observed that
the southern part Of Germany
is the more "Americanized" al
though the northern section has
