Winning Contract By Howard Schenken and Richard T. Frey There are many positions In which declarer strips all non material suits and forces the defense to lead a crucial suit or concede a ruff-and-dls card. Usually the defenders are helpless In such ctrcum stances, but In today's deal from the World Par Championship, East and West could defeat the contract by exact play. Vali NORTH N-S 4 8 7 6 2 <?AK6 0 K7 3 * 762 WEST EAST (D) ? 9 3 * 10 4 9 Q 10 8 9 J 7 5 3 2 0 A J 4 2 0 10 86 ? 10 o 8 4 * KQJ SOUTH * AKQJ5 994 0 Q95 * A 5 3 The bidding: - East South Weil North Pus 1 ? Pass 1 0 Pass 3^ Pass <? Opes tag lead) Qah ten North's hand poses a problem In response to one spade. A slight underbid of two spades Is possible, but holding three key honor-cards, North should take some stronger action. Best Is a temporizing bid of two dia monds, choosing the minor suit In which he has some strength. South' s jump-rebid of three spades Is acceptable, showing that his hand is considerably more than a minimum opening. But as this bid suggests a six card suit, even better would be three clubi. This would show strength and Imply five spades. North might then venture three no trump, which is actually a better contract than four spades. The top bidding award was given to three no trump, which Is extremely difficult to reach holding a nine-card fit In a major suit. Playing four spades, declarer is doomed to lose two club tricks and one diamond, and his contract depends on not losing a second diamond. He wins the club lead, draws trumps and plays hearts, ruffing the third round. He then surrenders the lead in clubs and East takes two club tricks. To avoid giv ing a ruff-and-discard, he must broach the diamond suit, and this is a delicate matter. If the 10 is led, South covers and if the six is led, South plays low. in some case, West is helpless. Winning defense is to lead the eight-spot, which South does best to cover with the nine. West plays the Jack, and declarer must eventually lose two diamond tricks. The diamond six is a vital card; if the six and five were Inter changed, the contract could not be defeated. (A Bell-McClure Syndicate Feature) Comment On Sports Boxing By Pete Fritchle Washington, D. C.? Joe Glar dello had fought Dick Tiger twice previously before he got his latest chance. It was a big opportunity and the former bad boy made the most of it. Tiger probably took his foe too lightly. Anyhow, after Gene Fullmer, Glardello was too fan cy and tough for Tiger to handle. Not that Joey had done badly In the first two fights? the two had split those first two fights. Tiger, 34, complained after ward Glardello wouldn't fight. But Glardello was playing his own game, his own way. He knew he had the fight won In the late rounds, and even though he seldom fought fifteen, dur ing his career, he wasn't fag ged in the late rounds in the December go. At the end 01 those fifteen Glardello was the new middle weight champion. And what's more, he didn't have a return Clause contract to face. Nev ertheless it was almost certain he would give Tiger a return? tif not at once soon. Glardello said afterward Tig er had been one of the few to offer him a chance and he ap preciated It. Tiger's manager said he was sure Glardello would give the former champ a crack at the crown. So there will probably be a fourth match. If there is, Ti ger will go all out and it should be a lulu. But he is not a certain winner, even though he will be better prepared i*4n tally and in top condition phy sically, one can be sure. For Tiger Is no youngster he's 34, a year older than the new champion. About Glardello, he always was tough, even if considered a ten-round fighter. He fought Fullmer once and battled him to a draw, however, and this was when Gene was at his strongest. In Gene's third fight with Tig er, he was definitely not the old Gene Fullmer. Tiger won their first go, Gene probably won the second (it was ruled a draw) and that was a major all-out effort. In the third Gene had had It ? it was ob vious. f Glardello was a different cup of tea and this was certain to be change of pace confus ing to Tiger. The former champ will probably be tougher for Glardello in the next go, but having waited so long, few could blame Joey for wanting to keep the crown a short while before contracting for another Tiger fight.

If you : think your children are mal lourlshed and yet you have been feeding thein plenty of the foods that they need, you had better see a doctor. Food plays an important part In treatment of people who are! diseased or injured. Far too little attention has been given to nutrition as an aid to curing and healing. Some doctors say that therapeutic nutrition In hospitals has not kept up with recent advances In the field of therapeutic nutrition. The majority of therapeutic diets outlined In various hos pital manuals do not supply the nutrients necessary to maintain good nutrition during acute Illness. Extra attention should be given the require ments ,of the convalescent and this Is recognized by doctors to be a very Important phase of rehabilitation medi cal care.
