The opening lead was the • of clubs. From my position as dummy I knew a singleton had been led, hoping that South held the missing Ace and would give North a ruff, after which South could win her two heart tricks, certainly defeating the contract. I wondered if my partner would put up dummy’s Ace. She did. but danger was not over for our side. The majority of declarers go for the drop with only 4 cards, in cluding the Q missing. The odds in favor of going for the drop, rather than finessing on the first round, are 33 to 23, so my partner led dummy’s K of spades, dropping South’s 3 and North’s 6, marking South with pos session of the 4 and North with no more trumps or the Q alone. The odds In favor of taking the finesse on the second round, as against go ing for the drop, are 27 to 23. but my partner did not know that. She led low from dummy. When South played the 4 my partner played her Ace. only to find she had established the Q in South’s hand. As my partner played the hand we would have gone down a trick if North had led a heart, as 2 heart tricks, losing to the Q of spades and to the K of clubs would have given defenders 4 tricks. However, my partner did not go down. She led off her Ace of dia monds, then dummy’s K and Q of diamonds won tricks. Upon the last winning diamond led fronr. dummy my partner discarded one of her los ing hearts, so defenders after all won only 1 trump. 1 heart and 1 club trick, enabling us to fulfill our game contract. It could have done South ■o good to ruff the third lead of dia monds. as declarer would have dis carded one of her losing hearts just the same. North’s well-meant strategy was due to bad judgment. There were lea 3 than even chances for South to hold the missing Ace of clubs, even *£ sts t Li opansd ths bidding.

In addition, there is the North Carolina Education Asso ciation to which most of the 23.000 teachers belong and conceded to be one of the most powerful political or ganisations in North Carolina, It is only necessary to put this mosaic together to understand why the State Board of Education decided to guar antee X ° the teachers the full 20 per cent increase for all eight months, despite the fact that the General As sembly failed to anoropriate enough money (o pay this increase all the way through in addition to experience and training increments.
