NEW ORLEANS, Mar. T.
Baltimore's Bill Collins needed
a bit of advice from a friendly
rival on professional COLTS win
ter tour and converted 1t into
a stroke lead today in the
$40. 900 New Orleans Open.
Collins. a 230-pound former
Marine and taxi driver, came
in with a four-under-par SO
yesterday and led the field at
the end Of the first round over
the soggy 6.700-yard City Park
course.
The near flawless perform
ance gave Collins a slim lead
over such tested opponents as
Dow Finsterwald. defending
PEA champion. and Jim Tur-
mesa of Elmsford, N. Y; Ernie
Vossler of Midland, Tex. and
Dick Knight. San Diego. Calf,
all with 69s.

tournament in 1912. headed q

rounds on Sunday and Monday
viii include the low go scorers
and ties, plus the 10 leading
amateurs. after today's second
round.
Collins was ready to throw in
the sponge because of his re-
cent poor play and said he had
planned to quit the tour after
the New Orleans tourney. He
had won only 81 400 since the
first Of the year.
Collins explained his putting
was poor because he wasn't fol-
lowing through on his swing
Bill Johnston, a part-time
player on the tour because of
his lucrative club job at Provo,
Utah, gave Collins the advice
he needed. Collins used only
80 putts-32 constitutes a good
putting round-in yesterdays
performance.

Il think I'd benefit by playing

There was a misunderstood

they wanted me to stay with

Good pitchers could fire fast

Now I've got the bat back on

do 1t is to retreat to the minors
at least temporarily.
Thus Steve is conceding the
Senators three catching spots
to Clint Courtney, Jay Porter
and Ed FITZGERALD. Porter, ac-
quired from Cleveland last fail,
will be behind the plate today
when the Senators open their
exhibition slate against the
Tigers, also their foes tomor-

he'll be able to alternate with
Courtney.
Courtney doesn't do too
well against lefthanded pitch

can hit a little bit for us wei

in the game all the time. but
I think he's better when he

sure of getting to game
in spades. The play required
skill than the bidding.
At each table of the tourna-
ment West began by taking the
king and ace of clubs. And then
each West led the jack of clubs
at the. third trick. The third
trick separated the bridge play
ers from the pinochle pundits.
Let's see what happens if
South makes the mistake of
ruffiing the third round of
clubs. He begins to draw
trumps and finds out the bad
news. The situation is hope
less. If South continues to
draw trumps, he will go down
two. West will eventually ruff
and collect two good clubs.
South can hold it to down one
by switching to hearts after
one round of trumps. West
ruffs the second round of
hearts but cannot continue
clubs since dummy will ruff.
West must therefore return a
trump or a diamond. South
must eventually lose a diamond
for a one-trick defeat.
Should Discard
Now let's go back to the
third trick, when West leads
the jack of clubs. South can
not gain anything by ruf1ng.
He should discard his low dia-
mond instead. This discard
cannot lose. No matter how the
hand is played, South must
eventually lose that low dia-
mond.
The advantage Of discarding
is that South manages to keep
Evening star., 1959-12-15

control Of the hand. If West
continues with a fourth club
dummy ruffs with a low trump.
It is then easy for declarer to
take all five trumps and claim
the rest Of the tricks. If West
leads anything but a club at
the fourth trick. South has an
even easier time.

Refinery Capacity
Increase Slows

Tulsa, Okla.-The growth in u.
S. refining capacity this year will
be the smallest since the depres-
sion days Of the 1905.
The showdown in new construc-
ton is neither surprising nor al
arming. 1t indicates the need for
adjustment in the nations basic
capacity, which has been too high
the past few years.
Last year, capacity increased
nearly 100000 bbl., per day, or
$3.50 over the previous year. This
year new construction will give
refiners less than 100000 Dbl. Of
additional capacity-an increase of
only Ito.
The nations crude capacity in
creased from 9,130,436 bbl., per
day in 1853 to 9,615,787 Dbl. by
January 1, 1859. New construction
this year is expected to boost this
total to 9,782,167 Dbl.
Capacity on a stream-day basis
rose from 9,703, 1926 Dbl. in 1868 to
the current 1O,154,155 Dbl. This
will increase to an estimated TO-
1926, 1856 Dbl. by the end Of this year.
The slower rate Of increase Is
evidence that U. s. refiners are
trying to bring capacity more
nearly in line with smaller yearly
demand increases, The Oil and Gas
Journal says In its annual refin-
Ing issue Of March 80. ;.

could set off a chain reaction
for nationwide prosperity"
The national citizens organiza-
ton convened it's session as a $2.1
billion housing measure was await
ing action in the powerful House
Rules Committee a f ter having
cleared the Banking Committee by
1877 vote. The Senate has already
approved an omnibus housing bill,
regarded as somewhat less liberal
than the House measure.
Meany said the critical need for
housing legislation should be view
ed in the light of the current eco
nomic situation. He said the coun-
try faces grave danger" because
of the continued high rate of job
lessness since industry has recover
ed 80 per cent of the production it
lost at the bottom of the recess
sion.
"Our economy cannot afford to
carry 5 million unemployed as a
chronic drag against progress" he
said.
Meany raped the Eisenhower
Administrations "obsession" with
initiation, declaring that "any pro-
posal for the investment of govern
ment funds is met with an en-
phatic and automatic mo- on the
ground that it might upset the
possibility of a balanced budget
and cause further initiation"
He said a broad program of
housing, school and airport con-
struction would have a "far-reach-
ing" economic impact that would
provide tremendous stimulus to
such basic. industries as steel, ce-
ment, lumber, glass and brick" and
would create millions of new jobs
for years to come"
Sen. Jacob K. Javits (R-N.Y.)
declared that a major national eff
fort in the housing field twill do
more to alleviate the present chron-
ic unemployment in the U. S. than
any other single step We could
now take"

Supports Conf.
On Jobless

The Communications Workers
! executive board has voted full sup
port for the forthcoming ALL
CLIO conference on unemployment
called for immediate action" to
improve the wage-hour law and
urged aid for democratic trade
unions in Latin America.
In resolution on unemployment
adopted during it's two-day policy
session in Washington, the board
warned that the appearance of
prosperity in the communications
industry is misleading.
While the industry continued to
expand and profits continued to
rise during the recession, "there
has been a sharp decline in jobs, "
the CWA pointed out.
The board said legislation es-
tablishing a 35-hour week would
be "a powerful factor to keep A
merica at work and provide a fair
sharing among all groups of the
benefits made possibly by modern
machinery, electronic miracles and
new techniques."
Warning that L t n America
communications industry is "a high
priority target of the Communist
international conspiracy" the board
called for greater support by the
United States for democratic trade
unions.
The CWA denounced "the will
ingness of top executives of US.
and British corporations to play
ball with Communist leaders in an
effort to bypass decent, democrat
ic trade unionism and free collec-
tive bargaining"
The resolution urged the us.
government, industry and labor to
devote far more time, money and
human resources to helping the
people of Latin America build eco
Monies and develop stronger insti-
tutions, including their trade un-
ions to buttress their political and
economic democracy"
