South had a definite reason for
his four no-trump response. Inj
case his partner could show thrcej
aces. South planned to hid six
no-trump to stop a possibly dan
porous lead through one of his
red kings.
When North showed four aces.
South also had a reason for bid
ding seven no-trump instead of
seven spades. The game was du
plicate and South wanted the ex
tra 10 points for making the hand
in no-trump.
When South looked at the dum
my he w ished that he hadn't been
quite so ambitious. He could have
spread the hand for seven spades,
hut there appeared to be only 12
tricks in no-trump.
However, with 12 tricks in lopj
cards there is always hope for a
13th. South won the heart lead
with his king and ran off five
spades to see what would be
discarded.
East's first discard was the
four of clubs and South was sure
that East had started with five
clubs. East's other three dis
cards were two hearts and a dia
mond and now it appeared that
only West could slop hearts.
This set the stage for an auto
matic squeeze. East was down to
three diamonds and four clubs, so
South played a heart to dummy's
ace and East let a diamond go.
Now South ran off three high

He had to discard down to two
diamonds in order to hang on
to the jack of hearts. Dummy's
last heart had done its work
South threw it away and made
the last three tricks with dia

acidicls are heroin users. Most nf
the others use morphine or opium.
Pattern Emerges
How and why does a person
occome a heroin addict? From
the thousands of case histories in
the federal files, this clear and
delinite pattern emerges:
The addict does not start w ith
heroin, but with one ot the milder
drugs such as marijuana. He is
attending a party, somebody of-
leis nun a marnuana cigarette
ana lie enjoys a somewhat
dreamy feeling of exaltation. At
the next parly lie will smoke two,
then three, then four.
Drug addiction almost alwavs
starts as a result of some kind of
iroup activity. The Narcotics
Bureau says the only exceptions
to that rule are the relatively few
doctors and nurses who usually
begin their addiction with small
shots of heroin taken in solitude.
The fact that narcotics are easily
available in the doctor's drug
cabinet sets up a temptation to
seek relief from the irritations
and fatigue of a long day.
The average drug addict may
continue on marijuana for months
before the fatal day when some
body at the party suggests to
him that there is something that
will give him a stronger, quicker
kick.
Shot In Arm
A licit is strapped around his
arm to make I lie arteries and
veins easy to penetrate, he feels
the sharp jab of a hypodermic
needle and the heroin courses in
to his bloodstream. H i s face
flushes, the pupils of his eyes con
strict and there is a tingling sen
sation in his abdomen. Later he
may "go on the nod." which
means to fall into a fitful sleep,
but in any event he has a feel
ing that everything in the world
is fine and he is the master of
his fate.
Between two and three hours
later it's all over. Somebody sug
gests another shot and he takes
it, but salvation is still within his
own reach if he will just say no.
If he goes on taking heroin daily
for about two weeks he wakes
up one morning and realizes, as
the addicts say. that "the mon
key is on my back. Then his
entire world narrows down to one
problem how and where to get
more heroin. His family, friends,
food, job cease to have any mean
ing in his single-minded search
for relief.
Cost is Great
Heroin is a powder, sometimes
gray or beige, but in its nuresl
form it Is w hile. Its current value
in the illicit drug channels is esti
mated at SB50 an ounce, but pure
heroin does not interest our ad
dict because a shot of it would
kill him. What he is looking for
a bag," a powder that con
tains perhaps only 3 per cent
heroin and the remainder an ad

sugar and quinine.
He makes the best deal he can
with a peddler to whom he has
been introduced by his compan
ions at the parties he attends. He
may start out buying $10 worth oi
heroin a day. hut then his body
begins to build up tolerance to
the drug and he needs it more

Day of Reckoning
It is inevitable that the day of

calls "the living death." Pain is
a relative thing and it may be-
