Penny wise and pound foolish bridge play ends in defeat
North by Oswald Jacoby describes a hand where West misguesses a double on the way to game. A misfired speech to his partner and a failed second heart discard cost him a trick and left North down one. The commentator notes the need to risk an immediate losing club to salvage the contract.

House Defeats Bill To Boost Army Strength
The House defeated an amendment to raise the Army to 900000 men and to add 102 million dollars for manpower. The vote favored Eisenhower and opposed expanding the Army beyond the current plan of about 870000 by June 30. Funds earlier approved for 900000 were partly withheld.
