J7 I I When this column appears in print thousands of bridge players from all over the continent are scheduled to take part in a national tournament at St. Louis. The type of bridge they play in the tournament will differ materially from the kind of bridge we all play in home games of rubber bridge. In a tournament, each hand is a unit by itself.

You try to score the maximum if you are dealt good cards; or to lose the minimum if you are dealt poor cards. Very small differences may be very important to the tournament player. This principle is clearest in the case of sacrifice bidding. You are willing to give the opponents less than the value of their own normal score, but you will make any desperate play to avoid going down one trick too many. SUPPOSE the opponents can make a part score if left to themselves.

That part score will usually be worth 110 to about 170 points, counting the trick score and the 50-point bonus for bidding and making a part score. You can afford to give up just 100 points if you deliberately overbid. If you are vulnerable, you are in danger of being doubled and taking a loss of 200 points. This is unimportant at rubber bridge, but almost a sure bottom score in a tournament. WHEN NEITHER side is vulnerable, you can sacrifice against a game only if you can hold the loss down to 300 points.

Their nonvulnerable game is worth about 400 to perhaps 450 or 480 points. If you give up 500 points, you will get a bottom and the opponents will get a top score. Similarly, you cannot afford to take a loss of 700 points against a vulnerable game. Such a loss is no bargain even at rubber bridge, but it is quite fatal in a tournament. In ancient Rome, the knowledge of how to sacrifice was limited to a very small body of men.

It is 20 centuries later, and the scene is St. Louis, but the number of accurate sacrifices is probably just as small. At rubber bridge you make most of your fine plays in an attempt to make the contract. In a tournament, your object may be merely to hold the loss down. South doesn't expect to beat four hearts.

NEEDED: Boiled water, boiled and aerated water, tap water, salt water and four similar glasses. DO THIS: Boil some of the water for two minutes. Fill one of the glasses with it. Put some of the boiled water into a jar, tighten the lid, and shake it vigorously to get some air dissolved in it.

(This should be done after the water has cooled.) Fill a glass with this aerated water, another with plain tap water, and another with salt water. After all the glasses of water have been allowed to reach the same room temperature, place them into a freezer. WHAT HAPPENS? The boiled water will freeze first, the aerated water second, the plain water third and the salt water last. The reason is that most substances added to water lower its freezing point. This includes air.

Boiling releases most of the air that is dissolved in water. There is a superstition that hot water will freeze faster than cold. This is usually true, provided the hot water is allowed to reach the same temperature as the cold water before it is put into the freezer.

As long as he is so cheap, I don't see how I can go wrong anyway, do vou? D. L. DEAR D. The only way you could go wrong would be to buy Mac.

Perhaps the only reason he didn't scream at you was because of your fresh appearance. But don't expect that kind of magic to last. This screaming bit is a common habit wilh macaws, and once established, it is extremely hard to eliminate and still keep a live bird, that is. The fact that he is being offered dirt cheap should be a clew in this direction. Of course there are always exceptions, and if you are determined to get Sawyer Rotomatic slide projector.

This offers four different methods of handling 35mm and Super-Slides in assorted cardboard, glass or plastic mounts. Most unusual of the four is the Rototray, a circular slide trays which holds 100 slides and looks like a water wheel sticking up out of the projector. The projector also uses an Easy-Edit tray with access from the top; low-cost TDC-type trays and a new Stack Loader which handles up to 40 slides without a tray. AN ADAPTER is also available which slips into the tray channel of all Sawyer 500 projectors permitting use of the unusual circular Rototray in all these models. News was made when Honeywell, well-known name in still photography equipment, entered the amateur movie market.

Our next reports will be coming from Photokina. 1 ner's raise is a rather weak bid, and South can count only one defensive trick in his own hand. If North had the makings of three other defensive tricks he would have found a stronger bid than two spades. SOUTH'S sacrifice bid of four spades puts the opponents under pressure.

If they bid five hearts (which they would make in this case) they may be overboard. If they double four spades, they may collect an inadequate penalty. East dealer Neither side vulnerable NORTH A A 10 9 6 5 (786 9 3 6 5 3 WEST EAST A None A 8 3 vKQJ72 10 9 5 4 OJ 10 842 A 4 Q82 A 10 9 SOUTH A 7 4 A 3 7 5 7 4 East South West NorfTl 1 1 A 2 2 A 3 Pass 4 Pass Pass 4 A Pass Pass Double All Pass Opening lead K. In this case the opponents elect to double. South must try to hold the loss down to 300 points.

He can afford to go down two, but not three. IT MAY SEEM vaguely ridiculous to execute an end play for down two, but this is quite common in tournament play. Even at rubber bridge it pays to save if you can. South wins the first heart, draws two rounds of trumps and gives up a heart. The defenders may take their two diamonds, but then somebody must lead clubs.

This enables declarer to limit the club loss to two tricks. For example, if West leads the first club, declarer plays low from the dummy. East must use up a high club to win the trick whether he holds the queen, tha ace, or both. Then South can easily develop a club trick with dummy's king or his own jack. South might lose three club tricks if he started the suit by himself.

For example, if South leads a club from his hand and plays the king from dummy, East wins with the ace and returns the 10 of clubs through South 's jack. Now the defenders are sure to win three clubs.

the bird one way or another, then give Mac a try. DEAR DR. MILLER: I have a dumb bird. Peedie, my parakeet, won't try to fly. That isn't all.

When I hold out his favorite food for him he usually won't pay any attention. Sometimes if I call him he will. He is a clumsy bird too, sometimes. What can I do about him? J.T. DEAR J.

Perhaps Peedie isn't dumb at all. He may be physically handicapped. He might have poor eyesight, or even be completely blind. You can test his vision by trying to attract his attention without making any noise. Even if he is blind, Peedie can still get along quite well.

He can recognize you by your voice and he has already learned his way about his cage. If this is the problem, he will certainly appreciate any extra time and conversation you can give him. DEAR DR. MILLER: Not long ago we lost our second squirrel monkey in two years. We fed them properly, kept them warm and clean.

They had vitamins, toys and affection and still we lost them. One died in just four months. Then we bought the second and it lived about a year and a half. We would like to try once more but hardly dare. We have all the recommendations on food and care already.

Can you offer any additional suggestions for next time? B. J. DEAR B.J.: Squirrel monkeys are very delicate. One of the basic problems is to keep them happy and so prevent emotional disturbances. If one could be raised from a few days old in your care, then it would probably be much more stable and satisfied emotionally when older.

Because this is seldom possible, the next best rearing method is to start with a pair so they can support each other in time of crisis real or imagined.

STAMPS iy THE NEWS Nov Nations' Issues Join Fight On Hunger DEAR DR. MILLER: I bought a small green parrott, Sputnik, and am having some trouble taming him.

When I talk to him he is very attentive and appears friendly. The trouble starts when I put out my arm to get him to climb on. Then he stretches his beak out and I pull my hand back before he has a chance to bite. How can I get him to climb on my arm without wanting to take a chunk out first? R. K.

DEAR R. Perhaps you are unduly suspicious of Sputnik's intentions. It is natural for a parrot to grasp a perch with his beak and then swing aboard. If he has a peaceful look in his eye then try leaving your hand extended once to see if his actions might not be friendly after all. (Offer Sputnik LET'S TAKE PICTFHES 2 Slwivs Prove Revealing To Fans your least valuable hand just in case you have been right all along.) DEAR DR.

MILLER: Aggie and Arthur are my pet earthworms. They have grown up since 1 got them. How long will they live? O. E. DEAR O.

If Aggie and Arthur have proper care and don't become ill from parastic infection or other disease, they could live four years perhaps even longer. DEAR DR. MILLER: I have a chance to buy a healthy macaw named Mac, about 10 years old, dirt cheap. The only trouble is that he apparently has a habit of screaming once in a while. I've been over to Smm roll film.

The cartridge slips into the camera, side number 1 up, and when 25 feet of film has been shot, the camera stops automatically. The cartridge is turned over to side number 2 and finished or it can be removed and exchanged for another cartridge containing a different type of film. IT IS EASIER to load the cartridge with roll film than it is to load roll film in a camera in the usual way. Several cartridges can be bought as accessories ($5 each) and preloaded, thereby assuring the movie maker only slight interruptions when special occasions are to be filmed in full. Other features of the camera are: an f1.8 zoom lens with a range from Dmm to 27mm; reflex through-the-Iens viewing; a behind-the-lens cadmium sulphide photocell which reads only the light coming through the lens; the ability to shift smoothly in a continuous run from normal 16-frames-per-second speed to slow motion (48 frames-per-sec-ond) with the inner electric eye automatically compen-cating for the difference in light values.

ANOTHER attention-getter at Atlantic City was tha By JIM BUCK It was 172 years ago this month that George Washington, President of the United States, picked a site for the U.S. Mint. Now Treasury Secretary Douglas Dillon has decided that that location in Philadelphia was not so bad. He has requested Congress to appropriate $17,000,000 for the construction of a new mint, within a block of the site of the original tiny building. Like Dillon, President Washington had help in the decisions resulting in his designating the site.

Three of the real giants of our colonial history, Robert Morris, Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson, helped with the arrangements. He was also helped with the site selection by the foremost scientist in America, at the lime, David Ritten-house, who was to be the first Director of the Mint. THE FIRST government building, on the first piece of property purchased by appropriation of Congress, was completed on September 7, 1792. The original cost, $4,266.67. That probably would not pay for the marble steps on our new mint.

The original mint had to advertise in the Philadelphia newspaper for a little copper, with which to start production. When it purchased six pounds for one dollar, the mint was ready to go into production. Chief coiner Henry Voigt struck a few copper cents, with a small silver center, a month later. Thomas Jefferson wrote the President that he was sending two PUZZLE SOLUTION Vl A A SJBAM.A.HH eJSl AM A bj 'a'Vt StlS A TE 1 cfli ITER?

We can almost see Dr. Rittenhouse working over the same quantities of silver and copper in a fusion test he later tried, before settling on a coin almost four times the size of the first, with a cent of copper in his final product. It is a far cry from the more than pennies minted by our mints last year. As the situation exists though, our billions of pennies and nickels, or even 79.000,000 half dollars could not satisfy us last year.

Our mint, operating under two competent and dedicated ladies, is now working three shifts, 24 hours a day to catch up. That process of meeting our demand for coins will continue for the next two years. THERE ISN'T much doubt that Dillon was swayed in his decision by the fact that Philadelphia is in the middle of its Independence Mall urban renewal plan. This program has a twofold purpose. It will try to reestablish Philadelphia as a tourist center and historical mec-ca; and it will do away with one of the most blighted urban areas in our country.

If approved by Congress, the new mint will be located within walking distance of such famous historical centers as Independence Hall, Congress Hall, Christ Church and the First Bank of the United States. All of this will eventually be incorporated in the new national shrine. With the release of his request for the new Philadelphia mint, Dillon commented on the well-known fact that he plans an expansion in our only other operating mint, at Denver. The property around the western mint has been purchased quietly, with an eye toward expansion. This should be accomplished in the near future, after a survey of our needs, which was sponsored by the U.S.

The latest of these to reach this office is from Kenya, Uganda and Tanganyika. This issue consists of four values 15, 30 and 50 cents and 130 shillings reports the Crown Agents Representative in Washington, D.C. Two of the stamps show maize picking and the other two depict a tractor in the field.

Each features the U.N. Food and Agricultural Organization's symbol of three ears of wheat. More than 100 countries will be releasing such commemorative stamps. THE CAROLINA Charter commemorative stamp will be placed on first-day sale at Edenton, N.C., April 6. The first-day sale has been arranged to coincide with the observance of the Carolina Charter Tercentenary.

Ceremonies for the new 5 cent U.S. stamp will take place at the U.S. capitol. The stamp marks the 300th anniversary of Charles II's grant of vast land areas to men who helped him regain the throne of England. Edenton was selected as the first-day site because of its unique history as the center of population for the old Albermarle area the first permanently settled area in North Carolina.

Collectors desiring first-day cancellation of the new stamp may send their addressed envelopes, together with remittance to cover the cost of the stamps to be affixed, to the Postmaster, Edenton, N.C., prior to April 6.

American photographic manufacturers recently displayed their upcoming wares to camera dealers at Atlantic City, N.J. It was followed shortly by the biggest display of all, Photo-kina, in Cologne, West Germany. TOP SENSATIONS of the American show were the new line of Kodak Instam-matic cartridge cameras for still pictures and the new Polaroid color film for 50-second color prints.

These have been described previously in these columns. The cartridge Idea was introduced also in a new 8mm movie camera by Bell Howell. It combines the convenience of film magazine loading and handling with the economy of roll film photography. THEIR MODEL 418 Autoload camera does the trick. It comes with a cartridge which the movie fan loads in advance with standard lu 5.
