One thing remains constant in any surveys of the needs of prospective purchasers of new homes: the Insistence on plenty of closets, they want them larger. This is true even when the houses have attics and basements where there Is considerable additional storage space. The closets are needed for everyday use without the necessity of climbing stairs. Perhaps you'll be Interested In knowing what one building association president considers a poor salesman. He's a fellow who fails to point up the size of the room, the size of the plot, the location of shopping areas, and the nearness to schools and houses of worship.

He's also the follow who doesn't know how much It will cost to heat the house or the cost of transportation. In fact, says this gentleman, such a salesman isn't a salesman at all. He's Just an order taker. by Goren East deals. Gravtly lait Ine, r.o.

The bidding was accurate. After North raised his partner's one heart response, the latter sensed slam possibilities and tested with a forcing bid of three diamonds. North cooperated by showing his king with a raise to four diamonds.

South was now in position to contract for slam directly, but he decided to check for aces first. Against the final contract of six hearts, West led the king of spades and East asked for a continuation of the suit in the most emphatic manner available, by Ohio Assembly Committee Chiefs Named COLUMBUS, Ohio Speaker James A. Lontz (D-Fairfield), chairman of the'Ohio Legislative Service Commission, today named Rep. Theodore R. Boring (D-Vinton) to head a committee studying operation of the Board of Education and Sen.

East realized that a force on declarer would reduce him to only four trumps, while East held five. West dutifully continued with the ace of spades and South ruffed. He tested trumps with the ace and when West showed out he appeared to have a dead soldier on his hands, for the loss of a trump trick seemed inevitable. After a bit of reflection, however, declarer realized that if East's eight cards in the olain suits were favorably divided there was a chance to bring in 12 tricks. He played a diamond to the king and a diamond back to the ace, ruffing the third round with dummy's low trump.

The first obstacle had been surmounted when diamonds broke. Declarer then cashed two club tricks and, when East dropped the nine, declarer saw that he could win the hand if he could determine whether East's odd card was a spade or a club. After many mental gyrations he stroked the rabbit's foot and played the queen of spades, to which East followed. South discarded a diamond. He was then able to ruff his remaining diamond with dummy's king of trumps as East was compelled to underruff.

Dog On Road Starts Fatal Chain Mishap HAMILTON, Ohio dog running across a highway touched off a chain of accidents near New Miami Monday night that brought death to Moss Prueitt, 35, a member of the Hamilton Fire Department emergency squad, Prueitt was struck and killed by a car driven by Frank Elmes, 69, of West Elkton after Prueitt had alighted from his own automobile to assist in clearing up a previous accident. State Highway Patrolman Arthur Robinson reconstructed the chain of events in this manner: Dorothea Johnson of Seven Mile suddenly applied the breaks of her car when the dog ran in front of her. Marvin Lakes of Seven Mile, driving behind her in a truck, hit the brakes of his vehicle and it swerved to one side and overturned. Prueitt, seeing the mishap, stopped to offer aid. Another truck then approached, followed by Elmes in his car.

When the truck suddenly slowed, Elmes applied the brakes. His car swerved to one side, hit Prueitt, sideswiped the fireman's car and crashed through a fence into a field.

While we are on the subject of Do you see spots before your eyes? Well, maybe you can blame it on nearsightedness or even on indigestion. Then, again, maybe you're just getting old. See an eye specialist about it but don't worry, it is a fairly common occurrence. We call the condition "muscae volitantes" which means flying gnats or flying flies. And that's just what the pesky spots or specks look like.

They just seem to float in front of your eyes. Between the retina and the lens of the eye is a substance known as the vitreous humor. Normally, this is jelly-like and transparent. However, sometimes it becomes watery. When this happens, some of the cells of this vitreous humor might become opaque and float around in the field of vision.

It might be annoying, but it Is seldom dangerous. Rarely do these spots interfere with vision or become worse. Often they are associated with visual errors such as nearsightedness. And the condition may be temporarily aggravated during digestive disturbances. If they are going to develop at all, the spots usually appear in middle age, sometimes earlier.

Correction of any visual error you might have may solve the problem by eliminating the annoying spots. See your eye doctor at any rate, if you see spots.

TUSCARAWAS AVE. DOVER eyes, perhaps you have wondered why persons from northern countries, such as Sweden and Norway, almost always have light eyes, generaDy pure blue, and those from southern Europe, Italy, Spain and others, usually have dark brown irises. Well, the Better Vision Institute says the answer to that one is easy. Light-colored eyes are more sensitive to glare; thus, in the northern countries where he sunlight is weak, the inhabitants tend to have light eyes. Dark eyes offer some protection against intensely bright sunlight, such as that of Spain and Italy.

Nature, in a way, provides its own sun glasses. Question And Answer Mr. J. What causes the ear to become plugged with wax? Answer: Wax accumulates In the ear for several reasons. A narrow ear canal or one with a sharp curve may hold the wax.

Some people secrete wax or a heavier wax which tends to accumulate. Be sure that an excessive amount of wax does not accumulate in your ear, and if it does, it is necessary to consult your doctor.

In some areas, loin pork chops dipped 6 cents a pound and leg of lamb declined 16. The week's specials in the vegetable and fruit departments include typical holiday fare such as broccoli, brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes, white onions, delicious apples and California naval oranges. With the alarm over contamination of cranberries having simmered down, the traditional red berries are among best buys.

Best buys In vegetables include large artichokes, packaged small carrots, collards, kales, endive, escarole, small to medium yellow onions, Eastern potatoes, radishes, Italian type squash, sweet potatoes and turnips. Best buys In fruits are Eastern apples, avocados, limes, oranges, grapefruit and tangerines. There are good buys In pears, lemons and Western oranges. Deadline Is Jan. For 4-H Project Jan.

1 Is the deadline set for all boys and girls wishing to enroll in the 4-H Steer Feeding project for 1960. Members interested in this project should notify the Extension Office. The Steer Feeding project gives 4-H members a chance to learn by experience about the beef cattle business. Members learn about feed and feeding practices and the language of cattlemen, new words and their meaning. Much of the success in the cattle feeding business comes from wise buying and wise selling.

Members learn this from the start when selecting their steers. They get selling experience when they have fin. ished their project. This Fall 35 boys and girls sold 41 steers at the County Fair. It is hoped that there will be at leasi that many and perhaps more sold next year.

Anyone desiring more information about the steer project should contact the County Extension Office, Post Office Building, New Philadelphia. gadgft fft fUilf liftof vision, ImagiM rating pictures on a UtUt tat right in Jtrnr Of count, what they saw was nothing special.

Within two vtars after Wgtlme TV came in, movie attendance had dropped one-third.

Foreign receipts were up, but not enough to absorb the shock of the domestic decline. And much of the overseas money was frozen. The sludlbs were In trouble. There was a wave of layoffs and shutdowns. Then the Industry found a new craze to put life back into the theaters the third dimension.

It started on Sept. 30, 1958, with the New York debut of "This Is Cinerama." The new process aimed three projectors at a giant wraparound screen. It made viewers feel they were really riding the roller coaster they watched on the screen. Two months later, a quickie called "Bwana Devil" opened in Hollywood. It was a sensation because it featured an almost-forgotten stunt of creating a three- dimensional effect by use of two screen Images and polarized glasses.

Inspired by the interest In new screen dimensions, 20th Century- Fox boldly converted all its production to Cinemascope. The process used one camera and squeezed a wide-screen image onto normal- size film. Paramount brought out Vista- vision, Mike Todd came along with Todd-AO and other processes followed.
