This beautifully engraved set of five medals will be released a year apart, one at a time. The theme of the five will be "Indiana and the Bicentennial." The first medal may be ordered now, or the entire set in either silver or bronze may be purchased. We have illustrated the 1972 silver medal, with the likeness of Patrick Henry on the obverse.

It was he, who as governor of Virginia sent George Rogers Clark out to the Northwest Territory to secure it for the Colonial interests. Here he captured Kas-kaskia, a i a and Vin-cennes, in the Indiana-Illinois Territory, after fighting British-armed Indians among the Kentucky forts. PATRICK HENRY is best known as an orator in the Virginia House of Burgesses, during the Revolutionary War times. This medal was designed by Warner Williams of Culver. It is produced by the Medallic Art Company, which has been in the medal business for more than 70 years.

The medals may be subscribed to for a set by writing the ISNA Medals, P.

championships. Now 29, Bobby Fischer feels "a sense of mission" to become the next world champ. In June he starts a grueling 24-game title match against Russia's Boris Spassky, 35, for a mind boggling purse of $150,000. Bobby shrugs when asked if he's really a genius. "It's a word.

What does it really mean? If I win, I'm a genius. If I don't, I'm not." Soviet fans were startled and disconcerted by the ease with which the young American advanced to the finals after posting 12 straightwins against Russia's Mark Taimanov and Denmark' Bent Larsen, an unheard of' feat. Then he shellacked Russia's ex-world champ Tigran Petrosian in Buenos Aires. I was Fischer's "second" there and a top Soviet master told me: "At home they don't understand. They think it means there's something wrong with out culture." Whether or not Bobby goes on to win the title, he has already carved out a hunk of immortality with his chess masterpieces.

He is famous for a risky pragmat ic style in which he shirks no complications and plays sharply to win. By contrast most top-flight masters resort to safe. bland strategies leading to many draws. "Around the world I'm better known than Joe Namath. In the U.S.

I'm nobody," he once said bitterly. But by now he has made headlines in the New York Times and the cover of Life magazine. when Dick Cavett asked him on TV about his greatest pleasure in chess, Bobby was brutally frank: "Crushing the other suv's eeo." As a youngster he blurted, "I like to see 'em squirm. To the majority ot Americans is no big deal, if Bobby Fis cher becomes world champion. Yet in a way it is itonic that the U.S., which has scorned the same, may score a great propa ganda victory over the Russians on the chessboard.

One, with the blue trim and blue printing on the disc, should have a quart er, dime, nickel and two cents. Only one of those coins the San Francisco Cent, should have a mint mark.

The reason they don't have one is that the Philadelphia mint customarily does not use a mint mark. THE OTHER package, In eluding the scarce 1970-D un circulated Kennedy half dol lar, will all bear the mint mark for the Denver mint. It is really strange that where you can almost always count on the proof coin in any set to be worth more than the uncirculated one, this isn't true in 1970, as far as the half dollar is concerned. The San Francisco Half, in the proof set, is priced the same as the uncirculated Denver edition, $7.50. For those who missed last week's information about ordering the uncirculated sets, it is $3.50 for each set, with a limit of five sets.

You get a half, quarter, dime, nickel and cent each from Denver and Philadelphia, with a cent from the San Francisco mint. Order from Officer In Charge, Numismatic Service, U.S. Assay Office, 50 Fell Street, San Francisco, Calif. 94102. Puzzle VERTICAL 41.

Mrs. Grove says, "I would like to know if the 1970 set of coins, sealed in cellophane, with a disc also sealed inside, which is marked 'Bureau of The Mint', is of any value. There is no mint mark on the dime." You certainly have something of value, Mrs. Grove, no matter which it is. But, we think that you have the 1970 uncirculated coins.

If you read last week's column, we said that you could order them now, for the year 1972. The year 1970 produced a real winner, since it had the 1970-D Kennedy half dollar in it. None were circulated through regular banking channels, just in these sets. The sets are now roughly $12 bid and $14 asked. NOW, THE other problem is to try to get you unconfused about what we have said and what you have.

That story about the dime without the mint mark does not relate to the uncirculated sets you have. It has to do with proof coins. The year is correct, 1970, but it was in the proof coins, where the coins should each have the letter on the coin's obverse and in a few sets the dime didn't. Those sets have shot up as niSn as $400.

Poisoned Averag time of aolutiom 65 minntee ON BRIDGE by IRA G. CORN JR. TEAM CAPTAIN alwavs a Droblem: however think East's five-diamond bid was reasonable. One of purposes was to shut out North-South who. incidentally can make five clubs.

Although West had no reason to raise to six, your result was not bad as it appears. Dear Mr. Corn: Recently I was dealt as 29 hieh-card points and was sor ry. My right-hand opponent opened three spades and held: 227 AKQ AKQX AAKQx I bid four diamonds and went down two. How can force partner to bid? High-Card Nightmare, Palo Alto, Calif.

Answer: Pre-empts are de signed to make life miserable and this hand is a fine exam pie. The best chance is to double, which asks partner to bid his best suit. I would pass a response of four hearts and raise a minor to game. Dear Mr. Corn: What about part scores in four-deal Lost Stubs, Baltimore Answer: The Aces organized and directed the 1971 Hall mark National Rubber Bridge rhamninnshio last December.

The tournaments were held in various parts of the country and our scoring system proved very popular. It in-Hnded some "Chicago" fea tures and we created some new ones. We allowed pan scores to be completed except for those bid and made on the last deal. In that case, a 100-nnint hnnn! was added. "Chi cago" rules can be adjusted to suit the players.

In Aces' Rubber Bridge, each round consists of four hands, then a change is made to new opponents. Send bridge questions to The Aces, co The Indianapolis Star. Include self-addressed, stamped envelope for personal reply. FOR YOU Dear Mr. Corn: What happens when there is a disagreement regarding the level of the final contract? We had a disagreeable time recently after I bid three no trump and made five.

After the hand was over, the opponents claimed I stopped at two. Adjusted Score, Port Charlotte, Fla. AnswenThis is one of the most sensitive of all areas and a director's nightmare. Regardless of decision, some one is going to feel penalized. Every effort should be made to reconstruct the bid ding and if agreement is im possible, then it is customary to accept the word of the player who made the final bid and assume that the oppo nents did not hear perfectly.

Dear Mr. Corn: How should we bid these East-West cards? When we played the hand, we reached six diamonds on this bidding. Should I not have bid five diamonds?

DO THIS: Put a few crystals of hypo into the fan with a little lemon juice, and heat the mixture. The strong choking odor that comes off is sulphur dioxide.

HKRE'S WHY: The chemical action that takes place between the photographer's hypo and the citric acid which is in the juice is interesting. Hydrogen citrate in the lemon juice combines with sodium thiosulfate (hypo) to give thio-suifuric acid and sodium citrate.
