WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

@. My husband came home
from work one evening and
asked me this question: What
was the Presidents name ir
1882" My answer was: Harry
Truman" He said that I was
wrong, that the answer II
Dwight d. Eisenhower" the
same as 1t is now and was ir
1945. 81.
I told him that I would write
you for your verdict.-Mrs
Albert Hollick, Roscoe, Pa.
A. BY now. you're both wrong
It's John F. Kennedy"
However, since your question
was written before the new
Chief Executive took office,
have to side with your husband
in the answer he gave.
It is. Of course, a trick Ques.
tion-the kind that jokesters oi
all ages like to ask. The listener
interprets the question as II II
we're: who was the President
in 1882" or What Is the name
of the man who was President
in 1882" But neither Of these
phrasings is the one actually
used.
I suggest that you laugh 1t off
and try 1t on some other un-
suspecting soul-not forgetting
that the correct answer has
changed since your husband
tried 1t on you.

still true in the Connecticut
town where we buy our gro
ceries but apparently in some
parts Of the country his trusty
Victorian health bread has sur
vived the competition of today's

for a spade 1inesse. He wins q
finesse with the 10 of spades
and draws the two remaining
trumpS with the ace. He then
claims the rest Of the tricks,
nodding gratefully to West
| Promotion
Now see what happens II
West refuses to overruff ct the
third trick. After the jack of
spades has been played. Vests
nine is promoted in rank. In
stead Of being the sixth high
est trump 1t is the fifth high
est. This Is an important
promotion.
South wins the third trick
with the jack Of spades and
gets to dummy to try q trump
fineSse. No matter how he
plays the trumps he must lose
one trick to the queen and an
other TO the nine.
Even II South plays the
trumpS by leading out the ace
and the seven from his own
hand, he must still lose two
trump tricks. Losing two hearts
and two spades, South IL down
one.
The moral is clear: Don't be
in a hurry to overruff de-
clarer when you have o sure
trump trick in any case. Dis
card instead. and perhaps your
one sure trump trick may bios
som into two tricks.
