North is dealer, both sides vulnerable. South faces 4NT and 5Y, with a 4-1 trump break risk. A deep cross-ruff plan contrasts with a safer line counting tricks, suggesting cashing clubs after the opening lead, ruffing with honors, returning to dummy, and drawing trumps to maximize chances while avoiding overruff risk.
Baytown’s Girl Scout units highlight a year of learning grooming homemaking and hospitality with Miss Mabel Jones and Miss Ruth McGary guiding seventh graders at Horace Mann and Troop 24 planning puppet shows and a radio play. Leaders are scarce and adult volunteers are urged to join Baytown troops to expand junior and senior programs and possibly send girls to National Girl Scout events.
Reds reported ready to share atomic secrets with scientists for peaceful energy development. Leader Korneichuk, a top delegate to the World Peace Congress, made the statement as the congress ended Wednesday in Priday.
A Jacksonville delegation pressed the State Highway Commission Friday to study relocating U.S. 69 through the city as part of a long-range plan. The proposal, led by Mayor R. C. Bucknat, would cost about 300000 to the state and 125000 to Jacksonville, eliminating a dog leg and requiring 23 miles of construction, with possible grade separation of Missouri Pacific tracks. Commission members urged doing the job right and noted the protest from southern Jacksonville residents over right of way and trees along the route.
Senator Paul H. Douglas and 17 colleagues urge Congress to establish federal control over tidelands, proposing a bill to repeal the 1953 tidelands act. He argues the 1853 act failed to confirm state ownership and cites a Supreme Court reference to offshore lands as property of the United States.
Texas Highway Commission expressed support Friday for long range planning of a four lane U S 281 highway from San Antonio to the Rio Grande Valley. A Hidalgo county delegation led by Milton D Richardson asked a survey on location and a notice to six counties of required right of way. Thornton urged counties to show strong will to proceed, noting moves to acquire right of way along the corridor and warning that plans may be bought as a “bill of goods” if enthusiasm is insufficient.
