Sylvester Stallone is set to star with John Candy in hold the gunfire a comedy by John Hughes titled Bartholomew vs.

Neff. Stallone plays a former professional baseball player who lives next door to Candy, a corporate banker-type, as the film chronicles their friendship and its disintegration. The comedy, based on a story by Hughes, is to begin filming next summer in the Chicago suburbs. "I am very excited about working with a director with the stature of John Hughes," Stallone says. "I have long been a fan of his films, which capture the truly comic side of everyday life." Perceptive fellow, that Sly.

THE PERFECT HOST: Alex Trebek, the only person to get every question right on Jeopardy, is as perfect at home as he is on TV. According to Trebek's new wife, Jean, and his mother, Lucille, the 50-year-old game show host keeps his house spotlessly clean, hangs dress shirts on light-colored hangers and sport shirts on dark hangers, and has kept his spice rack alphabetically arranged. "If you move anything out of place he lets you know about it," his 69-year-old mom says. "I tell you, it's sickening." Jean, 26, is a little more understanding. "It's Alex's job to be astute, perfect and articulate on the air," she says.

My family lives 3,000 miles away in another country, but I am in close and regular contact with them. I don't want to sadden my family with this news, but at the same time, I do not feel comfortable hiding something so important from them. What are your thoughts on this, Abby? And would you please ask your readers how they feel about it? If they had a son, daughter, brother or sister going through this painful uncertainty, would they want to be told? SURAMERICAXO DEAR SURAMERICAXO: I vote for sharing your problem with your family. Right now, you need their love, prayers and support, and they need time to adjust to this news.

Although the time span from infection to illness can take 10 years or more, with early treatment, that amount of time can be extended.

ANSWER: "DTs," or more precisely "delirium tremens," is a form of mental illness, brought on by a withdrawal from alcohol, which causes the sufferer to lose touch with reality. The primary symptoms of the "delirium" often center on terrifying and vivid hallucinations: sounds, smells, and sights that exist only in the patient's mind. The "tremens" part, however, is the more important factor indicating the underlying danger because it is characterized by a soaring heart rate, seizures (shakes), sweating, and hypertension that can lead (among other things) to heart and kidney failure.

Thus North should not make the quantitative four no-trump bid, asking South to bid six with a maximum. The side cannot have the points needed to make six no-trump a good contract.

At most. North might explore for a diamond slam. After winning the club opening lead and counting top winners, declarer's first thought should be that there is no hurry to find out if there is a lucky 3-3 split in either minor suit. Declarer's next thought should be to look for possible squeeze chances. In order to squeeze for a 10th trick, however, it is ordinarily necessary to "correct the count" by losing three tricks.

At trick two, then, declarer should play a low heart from each hand. If the defenders win and continue hearts, declarer should duck two more rounds of the suit (in case it is divided 5-2), discarding a spade from dummy. Then declarer can win whatever the defender returns and cash the top two spades and the top three diamonds. When declarer now takes the heart ace, West has to give up the diamond jack or un-guard the club suit. If the defenders switch back to clubs after winning the first two hiart leads, declarer should win and play a low spade from each hand.

That gives declarer additional chances of squeezing a defender in spades and diamonds or spades and clubs. BY MIKE OECHSLER Enquirer Contributor Neither vulnerable; South deals.

While you are thinking about that, allow me to convince you that South's bidding was better than North's. South has three "quick tricks," and many good players consider that to be a mandatory opening bid. (If you are not familiar with that method of hand valuation, by all means read up on it.) Also, South is at most one point shy for the no-trump rebid in contemporary methods.
