WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

At the risk Of making this
seem like Be Unkind To Web
ster's Week in this column-two
earlier pieces dealt with errors
in leading dictionaries pass
on a complaint from Thomas
H. Hudson, Jr., an attorney in
Uniontown. Penna. "A word
which according to one diction-
ary-is always mispronounced
on television and by the public
generally is aluminium" he
writes. MY 1899 Webster spells
1t as aluminium and below ap-
pears 'aluminum-see alumni
ium.' My 1858 Webster lists
aluminium and notes that the
'ium' spelling is especially
British"
So far so good. Webster
recognizes the fact that the
American people have altered
the spelling Of this word by
dropping the "p' before the
final "um." However, continues
Mr.. Hudson, "in all instances
there Is a long mark over the
" which means that the word
should be pronounced al-YOO-s
min-um. Even the 1858 Webster
seems to give no sanction for
90 pronunciation for the let
ter ~. 1t would certainly seem
that general usage would have
caused some dictionary sanction
for the 'OO' sound In al-OO-
min-um."
I'm afraid we have here a case
Of editorial failure to keep up
with changes in pronunciation.
A check Of q recent printing
of the Merriam Webster COL
LEGIATE shows that they still
insist on the pronunciation al
YOO-min-um. This is especially
startling since the PRONOUNC-
ING DICTIONARY OF AMER
ICAN ENGLISH, also published
by Merriam, gave preference to
al-OO-min-um as long ago as
1914. Well, it sometimes takes
dictionary editors a long time to
get their own findings into print
though seldom so long as six
teen years.
Please note, though, that
the pronunciation uh-LOO-
minimum is now the ONLY
pronunciation sanctioned by
such eminent dictionaries as
World Webster (not published
by Merriam); Funk & Wagnalls
College Edition, and American
College Dictionary. So not all
the photographers have been
tagging.

water. Quickly he united the

to CoStenbricker who was peer

Here was not the clear green

No golden paths of sunlight

blue and all the shapes and

His heart pounding, Michael
walked slowly along the ocean
floor, peering this way and that,
expecting he knew not what.
Something cold and Shiny
suddenly fastened itself around
his legs and held him fast. He
struggled to free himself but
the more he twisted and turned,
the more securely he was bound.
"What1l happen now?" he
groaned and he thought mourn
fully Of CoStenbricker and
Santa's elves who now might
never wake up.
Then he saw that he had
merely stepped into a patch
Of giant sea weed and what
held him fast was It's Shiny
branches. Moving slowly he
carefully untwined the embrac-
ing weed and broke free.
Hardly had he slipped away
than he felt q sharp pain in
his foot and he was trapped
again. Fighting of new panic
he bent down and discovered
that a shelled creature had
angrily clamped its Jaws
around his toes.
Holding back tears of pain
he pried open the shell and
limped on. He longed to return

Opening lead: King Of spades.
When this hand was dealt in
a very good rubber bridge game
in New York, the South player
was a well-known expert. He
got into a conversation while
he played the hand and found
8 way to boot q cold contract.
West opened the king Of
spades and continued the suit.
South ruffed the second spade,
drew trumps and led q dia-
mond to dummy's king.
When this held the trick,
declarer led the queen Of clubs
from dummy for Q linesSe. Un-
fortunately for him, the finesse
lost to the king Of clubs. Now
South was dead, since he still
had to lose two diamond tricks.
Conscious Thought
South played the hand by

would have made it with ease
If he had given it a moment Of
conscious thought. See If you
can find the right line Of play.
After drawing trumps, South
should lead out the ace Of clubs

An opponent will take the king

Matthias Is Prepared
To Do Good Job
An Opinion

The hot breath of ambitious Democratic
politicians could be very uncomfortable for
an average newly elected Republican member
of the United States Congress. But it is our
guess that Charles Matthias, who won the
9th Congressional seat from John r. Foley on
November 8, is not too much concerned wheth-
er there are one, two or dozen avowed op.
ponents looking over his shoulder for the next
two years. There is a reason for this.
Mac Matthias is well aware of his respon
sibilities as freshman Congressman. He also
knows if he wants to keep his seat in Con.
gress there are important things he must do
between now and election, 1862
He must get strong office staff. And
this must be headed by the best available
Administrative Assistant who is capable Of
handling people, details of the office, govern
ment departments and many of the political
chores SO valuable to Congressman.
Veteran members of Congress always tell
new Representative to get strong and ex.
perienced and personable assistant.
Congressman-elect Matthias has done lot
of homework in matters of legislation needed
for the country and for the district he will
represent. But none of this will do him any
good unless he knows how to conduct himself
as freshman Congressman.
Mr. Matthias is quite aware of the mis-.
takes made by Foley and he viii avoid the
glazing ones However, he realizes he cam
not please all of the people all of the time but
he says he will try to please the majority.
And anyone who has served the public in any
manner knows what job it is to keep the
boat sailing in favorable waters Glenn Beall

An Importont Opinion

CIRCUIT Court Judge James H. Pugh in recent

verbal spanking for its handling of what should have been

The Board, for years dominated by lawyers
and those easily dominated by lawyer members has suf

But the case in hand was the last straw that broke
the camels back far as the court was concerned.
The case dealt with request by woman who had

She found out she needed a coming variance and SO
she personally went to the board of appeals The board
however rejected her bid because her house too close

Judge Pugh in hearing the learned that none of
the ladys neighbors objected to her piano lessons.
He noted in his opinion that the board had power to

0NE wonders what motivaed the newly elected presi-
dent of the County Council to ask that the record be
reopened with respect to rezonng on Arson Street
in Silver Spring.
Last week the County Council by majority of four
members instructed the County Attorney to prepare
resolution to grant the request in line with the coming
plan Tor the area over the objections of the President
William F. Hickey.
Perhaps Mr. Hickey was dissatisfied with the status
of the record insofar as his position was and
decided that ne should introduce evidence to reflect his
views He said ne wanted to make survey of the land
available for Commercial Office use and to enter the
results INTO the record The record had been closed Off
cally for approximately two weeks
TO say the least this is unusual procedure One of
the opinions is that the County Council in coming case
sits as the Judge and bases its decision on the record be-
fore it. We hardly think that who decides case
should become the advocate and involve himself in making
the record to sustain his view.
