For REIIER EARN living

There are a lot of saving
tasks in farm and home repair.
maintenance, and workshop
projects. And it wasn't too long
ago that the home craftsman
had to search through a pile Of
hand saws looking for the prop
err one to cut in wood, metal,
plastics, and other materials.
Thanks to the research and
development in the portable
electric tool industry there are
now jig saws available that do
the job of several different hand
saws-and do it almost effort
lessly on the part of the user.

The two old standby Hand
saws are, of course, the cross
cut and rip models. Used to
cut across the grain, the cross
cut is held at a 45-degree angle
and has teeth bent alternately
on each side. The rip saw, used
for cutting with the wood grain,
has more chisel-shaped teeth.
But with the development Of
the lightweight electric jig saws,
the home and farm craftsman
can depend on them for cross
cutting, ripping, notch and scroll
cutting - virtually all types
of saving in practically every
kind of material.
Some of the newest jig saws
weigh only four pounds. They
come with metal and wood cut
ting blades. Low-priced models
have oilite bearings, higher
priced ones have ball and needle
bearings.

Opening lead: Club queen.
Most experienced players
would win the first club in
dummy and lead Q trump to
finesse with the ten from the
South hand. The plan Is to
take two illnesses, first with the
ten and later with the queen.
When the opponents hold
the nine spot as well as the king
and jack. declarer's first finesse
should be with the queen rather
than with the ten. That Is,
provided that South can af-
ford TO lose one trump trick,
as in the hand shown.
List All Cases
The way to prove this Is to
list all the ways in which the
missing trumps can be divided.
In all but one case IL doesn't
matter which finesse you take
first.
The crucial case is shown
today. You make the slam II
you try the queen finesse first.
This picks up the jack and
puts you in position to try a
later finesse with the ten. East
makes one trump trick, but the
slam is safe.
You lose the slam If your
first .finesse is with the ten.
This loses to the jack, and you
must later lose q trump trick
to East.
The crucial case occurs only
3 per cent Of the time, but
this is important in high-level
play. Rough-and-ready players
can ignore it.
The best play against weak
opponents is to start the
trunps by taking the ace. Then
return to dummy and lead q
low trump through East.
This guards against loss Of
two tricks If West has the
doubleton XII, but it presents
you with a guess II only small
cards drop and If East plays
low on the second round. You
must 60 up with the queen If
East started with xxx, but
you must finesSe the ten II
East started with J-x-x.
A weak opponent in the East
seat will put up the king on
the second round; or perhaps
he viii waver, thus making 1t
clear that he has considered
playing the king. Play the ace
first against such an opponent.

won the queen Of diamonds
with dummy's king and tried
the spade finesse. Back came
the jack of diamonds, and
dummy'S ace got ruffed out.
AS a result I was down one.
MY partner said I should
have played safe by leading
out the ace Of spades and then
another spade. In fact, he got
so heated that we miSdefended
the next hand and let the OPP
ponentS make q game that we
should have beaten. However,
that is another story.
IT would assume that II I
played this kind of hand 100
times I would lose it only once.
I am in danger only If East
has a small singleton in dia-
mondS and two or three small
trumps. In the other 80 hands
I would pick up about $500
points in overtricks. At the end
Of 100 hands I would be about
1000 points ahead playing it
my way"
Same Story
Partners heat and the mis-
defense on the next hand are
not another story; they are
part of the same story. When
you throw away game and
rubber. your partner is quite
likely to be seriously affected.
Your partnership morale may
suffer and the opponents may
be encouraged.
Picking up 80 points at
rubber bridge doesn't always
help you on the final score
of the rubber if you count the
score to the nearest hundred.
In this situation you may be
riSking your contract for
nothing at all. If the overtrick
gives you an extra hundred
on the score. it does often
pay to play for it.
Still, always consider your
partners temperament. II your
partner is badly shaken by the
loss Of a cold" game, don't
take any risks. More than one
hand is at stake.
Daily Question
AS dealer, you hold:

Answer: Bid one spade. You
have only IL points in high
cards and one point for your

hand is only an optional
opening bid. You prefer to bid
rather than to pass since you
have a strong major suit.
