House and it was a great party Bob was very much in evidence floating from room to room and remarking that he was doing more traveling at home than he ever did on the road Among the guests not generally seen on the Hollywood party scene were Generals Omar Bradley and William Westmoreland Plus all of writers and coworkers as well as Jack Carter Dwayne Hickman Don Stroud Red Buttons Phyllis Diner Zsa Zsa Gabor Jerry Colonna and George Shearing Of all the stars' homes I've seen my favorite is Hope's magnificent but it also has the look of a family home that is used and loved Dolores who collects Nativities does a beautiful job with the holiday decorations with evny corner of every room speaking of the season The tree in the formal living room was a traditional (and real) green tree completely decorated in hand-crocheted snowflakes The den had one wall with only Madonna or religious cards on the wall "That's mother's job" Dolores said '3 fjGoren BY CHARLES ILGOREN AND OMAR SHARIF

work out distribution he might have come up with the winning defense to beat a slam North-South bid well to reach six hearts After South jumped in hearts over his no trump opening North cue-bid spades to show maximum no trump with good heart support Both players Mowed with cue-bids and when North made a further move hy cue-bidding spades again South elected to leap to six hearts WATCH of a to 6-1

but West not unnaturally led from the top his sequence Declarer won king of spades drew trumps in two rounds then cashed ace of spades and ruffed spade Next came the ace and king of diamonds and a low club off the table East followed low as did declarer and West was in with the jack of clubs With only spades and diamonds left in his hand he was Meed to concede a ruff-and-sluff Declarer ruffed in dummy discarding a club from his hand and took the club finesse make his slam line of play made his hand an open book Since he could have rutted a diamond in dummy if he held a third diamond South was marked with an original distribution of five hearts and four clubs If clubs were headed by A-Q-J there was no way the slam could be defeated -declarer would simply take two club finesses and concede a club Therefore East should have based his defense on his holding a singleton jack or queen of clubs and so taken the necessary precautions to prevent his partner from being endplayed When declarer led a club from dummy East should have gone up with the king his jack a play called the Crocodile Coup No matter what declarer did thereafter East would have to come to two club tricks for a one-trick set FOR OUR CORPORATION PIONEER We nice thing about a satellite system is that once you get that system in the sky the cost of keeping it up there and running it is very he said that cost probably won't increase very much from one year to the next" But he emphasized that it still has to be determined whether the rates charged for satellite usage and the cost of Installing operating and maintaining the ground units definitely will make cheaper than current methods While no domestic TV satellite system now serves the US one such system operated by Tele star of Canada has transmitted Canadian Broadcasting Corp programs throughout Canada for two years according to a Telestar spokesman in Ottawa Early last year PBS used Telestar satellite to test the quality of TV pictures transmitted vis satellite To receive the pictures PBS used a mobile ground receiver which it moved every few days to a total of 18 public TV stations in the Northeast and Midwest At two-thirds of the stations Gunn said the picture quality was At the rest there either was mild interference which could be overcome or severe interference which would require moving the ground receiver unit some distance from the TV station ground receiver units for public TV stations Ideally PBS would like me unit at each of the 152 public TV' licensees in the continental US Alaska Hawaii Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands vote either to the project on grounds of costs or whatever" or proceed with national TV by-satellite transmission system which would entail spending up to $30 million to equip stations with their own ground receiver units Ways of financing the massive start-up costs of the system currently are under study but the most attractive way probably would be to borrow the money Gunn said He said unlikely PBS would seek an appropriation for the system from Congress already trying to get a long-range funding Mil and I think this would just complicate that" If PBS voted at the end of 1975 to adopt a satellite system he added it would take at least two years to get it into operation He said basic reason for considering satellite transmission is the rising cost of land lines now used to nationally distribute PBS programs no question that land line costs are going up" Gunn said adding that PBS now spends between $6 million and $7 million each year just to transmit its programs nationally GENERAL
