West shows out and now our careless player will only collect three club tricks. The careful player will lead the queen of clubs first. He will have noted that If West holds all five clubs there will be no way to get four tricks there, but that If Bast holds all five this queen play will make it possible tn flne.Me twice against the nine-eight.

He's manager of the hazardous materials team of Hulcher's Emergency Service. Procfrock's four-man crew Is on call at ail limes. Word of a disaster in the making can send Ihcm flying off to anywhere In the eastern two-thirds of the United States. Recently at Dwlght, lethal bromine gas escaping from a semitrailer truck blocked Interstate the main Chlcago-St. Louis artery, and forced evacuation of the entire community of 3,900.

Wearing cumbersome rubber suits and ga.s masks, the Hulcher's team waded through the deadly cloud of gas. After' checking the possibility of explosion, they almost casually hopped into the cab and drove the smouldering rig onto a nearby dirt road. Some situations are such as vinyl chloride lank cars overturned In the heart of Peoria, or tank cars filled with hydrocyanic acid used in gas chambers, in Mis.si.ssippl. All are potential nlgiit- mares, "but all In a day's work," says Proefrock, 52. He says he's never suffcrc- anylhlng worse than nau.sea In a lifetime of dealing with dangerous chcmical.s.

In fact, In the seven years since Hulcher's created the hazardous materials team to supplement Its main business of cleaning up derailments, none of Procfrock's crew has suffered serious Injury.

You learn all you can from lileraUire, and then from the school of hard knocks you learn what you must about how different chemicals react under different conditions.

"After you're in it for years it gets to where it's kind of monotonous," Proefrock said, then hesitated and added: "Aw, 1 don't mean that, not really. But it docs get to be routine." During the Korean War, Proefrock headed the 44th Division's chemical, biological and radiological unit. Since coming to Hulcher's, he has advanced his technical education through seminars and other formal study. Another crew member worked with agricultural chemicals and a third with the American Railroad Association's bureau of explosives before joining 'I'he fouilli crew member is Procfrock's own son Dale, SPECIAL WE'LL SERVICE YOUR AIR- CONDITIONER NOW FOR FULL SUMMER EFFICIENCY!
