HE MADE a second trip to
London after the war. 1t
was then that he attended
the masquerade ball.
Brant, who had been in
vited by Earl Mora, had no
trouble as to costume. He
merely went as himself, war
paint and all. 1t was not the
Shah of Persia. The rash
roisterer is described as a
Turkish diplomat of high
degree" Possibly he had for
gotten the Prophets prohibi-
ton of wine. At any rate he
made his way to the Indian
and took hold of his nose.
Brant drew his tomahawk
from his girdle and let go
with a blood-curdling war
whoop as he swung it in a
high arc.
Ladies tainted and Brant
began to laugh. There was
no homicide, no Scalping.
Brant said he only intended
a playful contribution to the
pleasure of the evening.
So the climax of Joe Tai
bots story turned out to be
another Irish exaggeration.

been estimated at about $40

Medical school and univer-

1856 to have the hospital, es-

War, transferred under their
control. The hospital, recently
described as obsolete and un-

READING THE LITTLE
book was a reminder how
little most of us know about
the Revolution, especially
the participation of the In
dians. The white mans
politics must have been
puzzling to those Indians
who had sided with the
American colenistS and the
British against the French in
1858. Only a dozen years
later they were being
courted by both of these
former allies to take sides in
a new war.
Most of the Six Nations
(MohawkS, SenecaS, Oneidas,
Cayugas, Onondagas and
TuscaroraS) sided with the
British.
This was unfortunate for
the frontier settlers in the
wyoming Valley of Penn
Sylvania and Cherry Valley
in New York. They were
massacred. Brant COM
manded the Indians in the
surprise attack on Cherry
Valley, where 80 settlers we're
killed.
The British were able to
hold the Indians loyalty be-,
cause they had restrained the
land-grabbing coloniSts. And
the British had a genius,
which helped win them a
globe-girdling empire, for
making much of native lead
ership.
Brant's father had been to
London, and Brant himself
had been lionized there just
before the Revolution. His
social manners were de-
scribed as of the best. James
Boswell entertained him.
The Earl of Warwick COM
misSioned George Romney
to paint his picture.
1t is the frontiSpiece Of
the book. Romney makes
Brant, who was in his early
30s, a romantic figure. He
wears a white silk shirt with
gold ornaments, a red blan-
ket draped like a Roman
toga, a dominating red plume
in his headdreSs of dark
feathers like the panache of
a Crusader and holds his
tomahawk by it's steel head
as nonchalantly as a cavalry
officer with a swagger stick.

something less than accurate.
Attempts at the correct pro-
nunciation-LAH- -ohs-have so
far proven only intermittently
successful with the result, as
Mrs. Morse notes, that all too
many commentators are calling
it LOUISE.
The opportunities for a quip
are all too obvious here. Let's
merely suggest a little home
work on this pronunciation,
men. It's an important word
in the vocabulary of all of us
just now.
&& So
@. Our freshman science
class is having a dispute with
the teacher. We recently stud
led levers and do not agree
with him on the pronunciation
of the word "lever." He says
LEE-ver; we insist on LEVER.
A dictionary published in 1898
has his way of pronouncing it
first. But more recent editions
agree with US. My mother says
that scientists pronounce it
with a long E and lay people
with a short E. Which way is
correct? - Period 5 Science
Class, San Bernardino, Calf.
A, British pronunciation of
this word has always used the
long E. Indeed the ia m ou S
soap making concern Lever
Brothers-originally a British
form-still calls itself LEE-ver
Brothers.
However. American pronun-
citation has long favored the
short E, despite the fact that
the Merriam Webster diction-
aries in their last major re-
vision (1934) indicated a pref
erence for the long z version.

BY ALFRED SHEINWOLD

Things equal to the same
thing are equal to each other,
Euclid wrote, more than two
thousand years ago. Does this
mean that three illnesses, each
with a so per cent chance of
success. are equal to each
other? Not at all; the fact is
that Euclid was not a bridge

try?
All three illnesses have an
equal chance but that doesn't
make them equal. Take the fl
nesse that will leave you in
the best position even If it

Consider spades. II you lose
the spade finesse back will
come a spade. and you'll be
no better off than when you
started.
Think Of diamonds next. If
you lose the diamond fineSse,
back will come a spade or a

whether to take a second fl

than the spade situation. but
there may be something better
still.
Sure Trick
If the club finesse loses, you
will still develop a sure trick
in clubs. That's better than
the possible trick that you may
get in diamonds.
This is your guide to the
beginning Of the play. Draw

plans for rapid transit. But

A. M. Woodruff, outgoing

loop projects such as the east
leg and the big interchange
and the entire south leg should

Maryland and Virginia tie into
these freeways.
He question the need for a
center leg and other portions
of the loop. Leaders on
Capitol Hill have also looked
askance at the center leg ex-
pressway.
The argument has split the
professional planners and it
won't be definitely settled for
years to come. The loop, if it
is finally completed on sched-
ule, won't be entirely finished
until 1872.
Meanwhile the man behind

that a merit system be adopted

In mid-1959 the NCPC re-

That plan, drawn up at a
