UNCLE CHARLIE
SCAMP
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

O.: Our Subteen daughter
was laid up for a few days with
that virus that seems to be
troubling everyone this winter,
so we had the family doctor
come to check her over. He left
q couple Of prescriptions for
medicine, and our young lady
has been giving me a hard time
trying to figure out what the
medical hen tracks mean.
suppose I could ask the doctor
but he just might charge me
for another consultation and
the doctor bills are high
enough already!
So here are the questions:
Cd What means bid" and
It'd? (2) Also "Sig." 90
What does the "Rx" at the
start Of the prescription mean?
Evening star., 1961-02-10

a. Why do doctors write in
Latin nowadays? Mrs. B. L.,
Pittsburgh, Pa.
A.: To take the last question
first, doctors write in Latin be-
cause this has been the Ian
guage Of medical scholarship
since the Middle Ages, and be-
cause its use serves the prac-
tical purpose of concealing
from the patient the simple
fact that most medicines pre-
scribed today are prepackaged
preparations which the drug
gist relabels and sells at a
markup.
Bid" and It'd" on pre-
scriptions are merely abbrevi-
ations for IBIS in die" (twice a
day. and tires in die" (three
times a day..
"Rx" (actually the capital
"R" with a slant-bar across
the leg of the "R") is a symbol
for recipe" - literally take
ye." Until early in this century
the term "recipe" was gener-
ally used throughout the medi-
cal profession. Now the word

prescription" has almost en-
tirely replaced it, though the
symbol remains.
Q: Where do rebus puzzles
get their name?
A: Just in case anyone
doesn't know what a rebus is,
it's the kind Of puzzle in which
pictures Of objects suggest
words or phrases by the sound
Of their names. For example,
a picture Of a pair Of gates
and a head would be a rebus
for Gateshead. The word is
the ablative plural of the Latin

word "res," thing. So rebus lit
orally means by things" Orig
inally the phrase was "rebus
non verbis," by things not
words.

Opening lead: Spade seven.
East won the first trick with
the ace Of spades and returned
a low club up to dummy's weak
ness.
It was the wrong time to do
so. South won with the king
Of clubs, drew trumps, and then
went back to clubs to force out
the ace. He eventually got to
dummy with q trump to discard
q diamond on the last club.
Declarer lost only one club
and one spade, making game
and rubber.
East should defeat the con-
tract by switching to the 10 Of
diamonds at the second trick.
This sets up Q diamond trick
for East to cash when he Ii
given the ace Of clubs.
Instead Of following o gen.
eral rule, East should look for
three tricks to defeat the con-
tract. If South has only one
club loser, the defenders must
establish q diamond trick with
out delay. If South has two
club losers, the defenders will
probably get them even II East
wastes time with Q switch to
diamonds.
It is easy to visualize q dia-
mond discard from the South
hand on dummy's fourth club,
but 1t Is virtually impossible to
set UP q hand in which South
will discard . losing club on
dummy's ace Of diamonds.
Always look for the setting
trick. and fall back on q gen.
eral rule only when you can't
see what else to do.

Virtues Dividend
Sometimes, thinking back
over the movies of 1860, we
remember Miss Kerr as the
only good woman, or girl, we
saw on the screen in that IL
months. Naturally. this is not
truly the case, but among all
those call girls and the others
who did not wait to be called,
she is such a standout that
she seems absolutely alone.
Her selection by the New
York critics, we like to feel
is evidence that virtue is
not always its own reward.
The Academy could double
the emphasis Of this and for
once. our feeling is that 1t
really has no other choice.
OF course, its own answer
to this could be the choice
Of Elizabeth Taylor as the
best actress Of 1860 for her
performance as the very
soiled heroine Of ''Butterfield
g."
Miss Taylor's girl, II you
missed the movie, was q
notoriously bad one although
the film undertook to at
tribute this to an anguished
loneliness. The picture
makers clearly hoped, that
everybody would understand
that Miss Taylor's heroine
was really sick. a defenseless
neurotic.
Well, no one can say that
we are less than average In
the quickness of our SYM
phathy with falling or fallen
girls, but we did not feel we
were understanding Miss
Taylor.
Moreover, all we can say
is that IL she should win over
Miss Kerr in the Academy's
best actress category. wen

Whence came this wander
lust? It happened after his

AFTER all, what is there for
me?" he asked. "All I need is
to have good food TO eat,
books to read, friends to en-

he holds fast to his Ameri-
can citizenship.
II wouldn't part with It,"
he said. Fright now, they
want me to return to my

Decision is heaven knows
how many SHOWS away, but
Hollywood is thinking of its
''bests" during the, year 1860.
At the moment, the minds
Of the Motion Picture Acad-
emy's members have not even
been made up on the five
nominees In each Of a multi
tude Of award categories.
These, Of course, will be de-
cided several weeks in ad-
vance Of decision night. April
II, giving the Academy's body
polite something specific
finally to vote upon.
This correspondent already
has done his Academy brood
ing. How come? Well, GER
tainly not because he is en-
titled to q vote, a privilege
reserved for those actually
engaged in the creation Of
motion pictures.
Obliquely. however, we have
been casting one or more bal
lots in the Academy elections,
or selections, for q number of
years.
But It's Honorable
The explanation for this is
simple, and honorable, the
latter the more important.
It lies In the circumstance
that always at least one
eligible voter feels he has
seen too few pictures, gets in
touch with US. and asks our
advice on how to mark his
ballot. We never actually
handle or mark the ballot, If
Price Waterhouse wants to-
know. We merely advise our
client-or clients in vintage
years--how we would mark
the ballot If it happened to
be ours.
Sometimes In looking back
over our record we are a bit
surprised to have retained
any Of our practice" as an
Academy Voter advisor. That
we have is perhaps due to the
fact that the secrecy of the
ballot saves our client, or
clients when they total as
many as two, from a loss of
prestige. Neither, or none of
us ever mentions it again
when we have voted for
losers. This is not a comfort,
just less Of q discomfort.
No Ballot, Maybe
It is not at all certain that
We shall be an Academy con-
sultant this year and while
that would be no tragedy, we
should be o bit sorry never
theless.
This regret lies in our con-
viction that we know one GER
tain winner this year.
Our girl Is Deborah Kerr.
Our confidence in her has
nothing to do with the fact
that she already has won the
New York Critics Circle
award. If anything that would
weaken our certainty since
1t Is virtually notorious that
Hollywood chronically dis
agrees with critics, especially
New York's.
On the contrary, our con-
fidence in Miss Kerr lies in
the quality Of her perform
ance as the wife (name Of
Ida Carmody. by the way)
in "The Sundowners."
Miss Kerr Is singularly
unglamorous in THE Sum-
downers." but she more than
compensates for this sacrifice
