The question of when to cover an honor does .ot lend itself to an easy answer. You hear lots of people say ”alnays cover an hon- or with an honor " Unfortunately. this rule will not always work.

To show how unreliable such a blanket rule is. apply it to the club suit in the accompanying hand. Suppose declarer leads the jack from dummy. should East cover”? The answer is no. because

I haven't any fur coat or feathcrcd coat to keep my skin from getting too dry. So when there was a little bit of dampness in the air. as there always is before a storm, it made me feel so good I just had to tell how good I felt. Do you think if I could call rain I would

"But I've always heard that you can call rain." protested Polly Chuck, who hated to admit that she might be wrong. ”There is one thing Polly Chuck you're old enough to know." de- clared Stickytoes crossly. "What's that?" asked Polly. "Never to say a thing is so or. isnlt unless you truly know. You may believe a thing is so. but. not know that it is so. There is I big difference between believ- ing and knowing. Saying a thing is so when you don't know it is so. may make a lot of trouble for other folks. I didnt call the rainl I couldn't call the rain. No nnci can call rain," declared Sticky-' toes. ; "What did I tell yoii?" chuckled Johnny Chuck to Polly Chuck. Polly didn't have a word to say.

if he does. South makes two club tricks by winning the queen with the ace. and leading a club toward ilummy's ton. If, however. East ducks the jack of clubs. declarer can do no better than make one club trick.

Thesbesl rule to follow is to cov- er when you can gain. and not cov- er where you cannot gain. This doesn't sound very helpful. but it provides the answer most of the time. Thus. East cannot possibly gain by covering the jack lead. regardless of where the ace and king are. but he can lose by cov- ering vihcnever partner has the

East returned I low club on which declarer played low, west taking the king. Further play was unnecessary L use if West led a club. dummy's J-10 would trap East's queen: it West led another suit. declarer would get a ruff and discard.

The effect of South's plays was that he created a genuine finesse situation where one had not ex. isted before. It would not have mattered If West had won the third round of spades..

Less Color For Oranges

on-Awii icpi Canadian housewives may find after Aug. 1 that the oranges they buy are not as orange-colored as now.

The reason is that a.ter that date imports of oranges colored with oil red X0 will be banned.

Health M i ii is t e r Martin in- formed the Commnns Friday that oranges colored by the agent. which contains coal tar. ”will be treated as a food coi1tainin;' a non - permitted color and subject to the sanctions of the food and drugs act."

Officials rxpluiiicd latcr that this means the imports of such oranges iiill be banned However. United States exporters can color their fruits with another coloring agent that does not contain coal tar.

Later. Mr. Martin said a sur- vey iiiidcrtaken by his depart- ment showed no indication of harmful rffects from the presence of coal tar in orange coloring.
