know that very marked i'm
provements are being made
especially in the form of
strengthened curriculums-on
the secondary school level. But
I have to agree that the use of
graduate" as a transitive verb
with high school" as its object
is a sign of semiliteracy.
The correct form, of course,
is graduated from high
school," And before the purists
start screaming for my scalp,
let me acknowledge that there
are many traditionalistS who
hold that the institution not
the pupil does the graduating.
Therefore the precisely formal
way of stating the idea is HE
was graduated from high
school,"
Question: I often hear the
phrase "concenSuS of opinion"
on TV and radio programs. It's
my impression that this phrase
is repetitiouS. Am I correct?-
E. ]. K, Pittsburgh, Pa.
Answer: Right you are. A
consensus" is literally a feel
ing together" from the Latin
CON" together and "sentire,"
to feel. Since it means an
agreement among opinions, the
last two words of the phrase
are Superf1uous. Say simply,
1.-THE consensus is. :"

boy. or boy, the school

'really doing a fearsome job"
writes a California reader who
asks that his name be with
held. Here's an example of
the pupils they're turning out
these days. A nice-looking
young fellow came to my store
looking for a job. I asked him
about his schooling and he said,
I graduated Central High in
June He claimed he had high
grades in English but I GER
tainly don't think anyone de-
serves to be graduated from
high school if he still doesn't
know better than to say I
gra duated Central High
Wow!"
1t hardly seems fair, old boy,
to condemn the school systems
of the Nation because of the
grammatical error of one
graduate. Your columniSt

will get only three hearts and
one club.
West knows the heart situa-
ton because East is supposed
to return his highest heart. II
the eight is EaSt'S highest heart
South must have Q-10-9.
So far so good, but there is
more to the defense than just
unmasking South's deceptive
play in hearts. West cannot
run the hearts by leading the
suit next from his own side of
the table; South would win a
second heart trick with the
queen. The next lead must
come from East, through
South's queen of hearts.
Develops Clubs
South must develop dummy's
long clubs without allowing
East to win a club trick. De-
clarer leads a diamond to
dummy and returns a low club
If East plays a low club,
South will gladly play low, al
lowing West to win the trick,
Later South will cash the ace
and king of clubs to establish
the rest of the suit.
East foils this plot by play
ing the nine of clubs on the
first round of that suit. South
must play the ace to keep East
out, and now West must I'M
block by dropping the queen of
clubs This enables East to win
a trick later with the jack of
clubs, and a heart lead by East
then defeats the contract.
If West foolishly keeps the
queen of clubs, he will be al
lowed to win a trick with it on
the second round of clubs. The
wrong defender will have the
lead, and South will make his
contract.
