Hobbies
Girls and boys in our room have
many interests and hobbies. We
like to hear about the many things
they bring to share with our class.
Ricky Fischer is interested in mis-
siles and has brought two very
good models. Because we have been
studying about birds, Ricky also
brought Pepeko, his pet parakeet.

70 sing in the classroom. We all
enjoyed Pepeko's visit.
Since we are interested in wild
life in the United States, Stevie

Dear Sue,
When we got back to school after
the holidays, we found your Lett
ter awaiting us. We enjoyed read
ing about the work you have been
doing lately.
In the past weeks we have had
tions. We used bus schedules and
addition and subtraction of frae-
the World Almanac which showed
many ways in which fractions are
used. The World Almanac is also
used as source for locating infor-
nation
In social studies we have been
studying about the North Central
States This se2ison OF our coun-
try is rich in miltes, factories, and
vast farm lands. So much grain is
grswn here that this area is called
"the icnd basket of our nation
During our last library pericd,
Miss Wainwright showed US a filn-
strip about the building of the
transc0ntinental railroad She also
played record of songs and stories
about this great venture.
We have seen q movie, Nanook
of the North. 1t was about an Eski-
mo, his family, and their ways of
living and getting food. This pic
ture was of much interest to us
since we have done some reading
about Eskimos. Nanook lived in the
Hudson Bay region. We could not
help but wonder IL he had any
relatives in Alaska, which has re-
Gently become our 49th State.
One day, while giving oral lang
uage reports, we found out that
some of us in our room had in
teresting hobbies, such as: collect
ing arrowheads coins, stamps, and
fgnrines. We also discovered that
a few of our girls were very in
terested in sewing and embroider-
ing; also knitting and crocheting.
After giving our reports we de-
cided to bring our hobbies and col
lections to class and report on
them. AS a result of these reports
some Of us, who did not have a
hobby, decided we would like to
start one. Not only did we enjoy
doing this, but also learned many
things we did not know about these
things before they were brought in.
We hope you will write to us
soon.

FAMOUS FABLES
BY Z. e. EDGAR

Pep talk: Fielding (Hurry.
up) Yost. Michigan's great
football coach, could whip
his players and himself into
o frenzy with his rousing pep
talks.
One Saturday afternoon,
Michigan was in q grueling
contest with Q sectional rival.
At the half. the Wolverines
were trailing TO. When the
boys trudged back to the
locker room, Yost went into
his customary talk.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-09-19

As he spoke, his voice be-
came charged with emotion.
When he had finished, he
pointed q quivering finger at
the door and cried:
go out there and run 'em
into the ground"
Fighting mad. the players
grabbed their helmets and
rushed out Of the door he
had indicated. Unfortunate
ly. Yost In his excitement
had pointed to the wrong
door. Instead Of emerging
onto the gridiron. the team
dashed headlong into the
swimming pool.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-09-19

Il
Spades and hearts were both
reasonable trump suits. When
you can't find a suit with eight
cards. it's quite all right to
settle for a 4-3 fit-especially
If your suit is headed by most
or all Of the top cards.
When your trump suit is
short, however. you must handle
1t with care. One untimely ruff
may cost you the contract.
In this case South fell from
grace. West opened the ten Of
diamonds. and East led out his
three top cards. South made
the fatal error Of ruffing the
third diamond with a high
trump.
West discarded a spade on
the third diamond. Now South
hopefully led out three rounds
Of trumps. This left West with
a good trump. West eventually
made his trump and a club
trick, defeating the contract.
Should Discard
When the third diamond Is
led, South should discard q low
club. No matter how the hand
develops. South is sure to lose
this club trick sooner or later.
It costs nothing to give the
trick up at this moment and
save all of the trumps for more
important work.
East cannot afford to lead
another diamond. for then
dummy will ruff. If East leads
anything else, declarer can win
and draw four rounds of
trumps. South easily wins four
trumps. four spades and two
clubs, making his contract.
Daily Question
AS dealer, you hold:
A82 US oAKQ954 @J63
What do you do?
Answer: Pass. If your long
suit were a major, you might
open the bidding. There is no
need to pass if you and your
partner use weak two-bids.
Open with two diamonds, show
ing a strong six-card suit in q
hand that is not quite worth q
normal opening bid.
