WONDER DRUG USED
TO SAVE PLANTS
TUCSON, Ariz. (UP)—Dr. J. G.
Brown of the University of Ari
zona reports that streptomycin
—the latest wonder drug in the
fight against human ailments—
has been used successfully to
combat plant diseases.
Dr. Brown said that in experi
ments here, the antibiotic drug
has been used satisfactorily in
the disinfection of plum and
budwjod trees without harm to
the plants. He added that strep
tomycin was particularly ef
fective in killing plant germs
which cause rot and blackspot.
Thus far, he said, it has been
found that the drug will make it
possible to grow uninfected
nursery stock, even of very sus
ceptible varieties, such as Japa
nese plum.
LONG SKIRTS SINFUL,
N. Y. PASTOR SAYS
NEW YORK, (UP)—The Rev.
Samuel M. Shoemaker said in a
sermon at the Calvery Protest
ant Episcopal Church that the
new-style long skirts were a sin
ful waste.
“Christian women,” he said,
“ought to resist this miserable,
selfish modern style of dress as
tru* sin—to what purpose these
Eull, flapping, flowing garments
now down to their ankles when
recently they were up to their
knees, because some designer
in Paris cracks the whip, when
all over the world there are
thousands who need ihat cloth,
not to make them more alluring,
but to keep them warm?”

MCKENNEY ON BRIDGE
BY WILLIAM E. McKENNEY
America’s Card Authority
Written for NEA Service
The double of a three no
trump contract not only says
that you expect to beat the con
tract, but it also asks your
partner to lead the first suit bid
by dummy.
This convention works out
very well if the dummy has bid
your suit, and you have a good
suit with a sure entry. But it
can be quite disastrous when the
opponents’ bidding has been
strong.
In today’s hand South elected
to open the bidding with one dia
mond even though he had a
point count sufficient to bid one

no trump. North responded with
one spade to fill that hole in
case his partner wanted to play
the hand at no trump.
South’s bid of two no trump
was an overbid. Nevertheless, it
was a powerful bid, and when
North went to three no trump,
East should not have applied the
convention of the double for the
spade lead. While this is a use
ful tool and will help you to
defeat many game contracts,
this hand will show you that it
also can be disastrous.
The queen of spades was play
ed from dummy on the opening
lead, East covered and declarer
won. Then he cashed the five
club tricks, and when he found
the king of diamonds on side,
he ran off five diamond tricks,
making 12 tricks, three over.
I doubt that North and South
would have arrived at a slam
contract, but after the double
there was no need to try for a
slam.
100 RATLERS A DAY
KEEP WOLF AWAY
FLASHER, N. D. (U.R)—A na
tive of this short-grass country
has developed a lucrative busi
ness catching rattlesnakes.
The live snakes George Sin
clair ships to a southern com
pany where the venom is ex
tracted. Others he sends to taxi
dermists and skin collectors.
Sinclair uses the simplest
equipment to trap the poisonous
reptiles: a length of gas pipe
with a coiled loop pulled
through. Sinclair has taken as
many as 100 rattlers in a day.
BROTHER RUNS $200
INTO BIG BUSINESS
MINNEAPOLIS (U.R) — In six
years, two Minneapolis brothers
have#run a $200 investment in
to a $100,000 business.
Willard and Rober Resnick,
co-owners of the Triploil Refin
ing Co., set up a paint manu
acftruinglpant in 1941 as taooiii
facturing plant in 1941 as a sub
sidiary to their oil refining divi
sion.
They recently had to build a
$75,000 addition to take care of
the mushrooming paint busi
ness, which almost has outdis
tanced the oil sales.
Originally, they “bought into”
the business with $200.
Since then they have expand
ed and taken over the concern.
Both veterans of World War II,
the brothers also have a paint
processing school for ex
servicemen.
