Just last month I played in Columbia at my first South Car olina tournament. 1 have never played in a nicer one anywhere and 1 certainly hope to be back again. What I believe to be the best hand of the tournament was a four-club contract made by John Myers of Columbia. West opened the deuce of spades. East won with the ace and continued with the queen in order to force dummy to ru.'f, but John was not going to fall into that trap. He discarded the deuce of diamonds from dummy. Then East shifted to the three of diamonds, but John was ready. He rose with the ace just as if he were looking right at East's sin gleton. John led the nine of hearts and let it ride to East's queen. Now it did not matter what East did. but actually he led a trump. John won with dummy's king, led the three of trumps to his ace. led a heart to dummy's ace. ruffed out East's king of hearts, returned to dummy with the len of trumps, discarded his three diamonds on the last threei hearts and made the last trick with his last trump. Incidentally, a diamond shift at trick two instead of the spade continuation would have beaten the contract, but that does not detract one iota from John's play.

George McGovern, D-S.D., today proposed a wheat program which he said would probably fill Presi dent Kennedy's requirements for any new wheat legislation this year. McGovern said the program of mandatory production controls and high price supports over whelmingly rejected by farmers May 21 could be converted with a brief bill into a voluntary com pliance program. Under such a program, he said, farmers choosing to comply with the controls proposed .'or the 1964 crop would gel price sup ports of about $1.95 a bushel, plus payments for land taken out of grain production. Those cooperating w ill get mar keting certificates for about three-fourths of their 1964 crop. These certificates, which farmers could sell, would be worth 70 cents a bushel. This would be added to the money the farmers could make either from open market sales or putting the grain under government supports at about $1 25 a bushel. Other congressional news: Depressed Areas: Senate lead ers worked today to try to rescue President Kennedy's depressed areas aid plan from the stunning House upset last week. Thev scheduled the bill for Senate de bate Tuesday, and Democratic Whip Hubert H. Humphrey, Minn., said he hoped it would be approved and receive a "more pleasant experience" when it is returned to the House. Taxes: Administration forces hoped today to persuade the House Ways & Means Committee to approve heavier taxes on divi dends of big stockholders with tax relief for small stockholders. The compromise was expected to be accepted by a close vote. HOW IT STARTED When we arc said to be "turned dow n" w hen we are not allowed to do something, it comes from an allusion to the old English cus tom of turning a glass upside down when no more drink is desired. Stone Towers In Sardinia Keep Archeologists Guessing TORRALBA, Sardinia UPH - Dotting the rugged Sardinian landscape are about 7,000 rem nants of a long-vanished civiliza tion that has had archeologists guessing for years. Sooner or later every visitor! to Sardinia is bound to ask: What are those stone towers?" "They are Nuraghi," is the us ual answer. The questioner com monly learns little more than that they were built by a civilization that inhabited the island thou sands of years ago. Until less than 10 years ago archaeologists believed the Nurag hi were built during the Stone Age. But they have since deter mined they were constructed by "retarded civilization. There are about 7,000 of the Nuraghi scattered all over the is land of Sardinia off the Italian coast. Basically, they are heavy stones piled on top of each other in a conical shape. There usual ly is one entrance and no win-i Near this little village in north dos. central Sardinia is the Nuraghe of They are from eight or nine Santu Amine (Sardinian dialect feet to more than 50 feet high.'or s'- Anthony), one of the best From inside these towers the! preserved latter day towers. long gone civilization defended themselves or hid until the en emy had passed. Generally t h e lowers were used only for defense and only occasionally as a home. Archaeologists have determined that the simpler Nuraghi were! constructed from about 1500 to! 1000 years before Christ. At that1 time the Nuragical civilization still was in the Slonc Age. The towers built then are small and a simple cone. For the next 500 years or so the civilization gained ground. r The entire Nuraghi is laid out for a step by step defense first the outside wall, then the inside. From there they could retreat to the upper story for defense, if need be. Aside from the towers, the civi lization left a few other remnants. Archaeologists have uncovered bronzo figurines made during thel latter years of the civilization Thev are statues of warriors, and archers. But they arc not of wom en unless it involves a woman holding a dead warrior. From this experts say that the women of that civilization were not held in very high standing. The figurines are surprisingly like modern works. They are long legged and almost surrealistic. From all indications, the Rom ans brought the end of the little developed Nuraghi civilization. Al though they kept to the interior of the island, they were gradual ly absorbed by the people who moved to Sardinia from the Ital ian mainland. do FALSE TEETH Rock, Slide or Slip?

Mile, Just Like Dollar, Seems To Be Shrinking WASHINGTON (UPI1 - The country mile, like the dollar, seems to have shrunk a bit dur ing the past 200 years, according to a top government surveyor. A recent survey of the historic Alason-Dixon line indicated that a mile went farther during Colonial days. The men who laid out the boun dary between Maryland and Del aware in 1874 and 1765 used a measure that was about 10 to 12 feet longer than the present-day mile. These figures came from B. J. Meade, chief of the Triangulation branch of the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey. (CG4S). The federal agency rcsurveyod the Mason-Dixon line, popularly con sidered the dividing line between the North and South, during 1881 and 1882. "Since measurements in the ori ginal (Colonial! surveys are fair ly consistent, there Is some indi cation that the length of the foot 200 years ago was longer than that today.

He later told UPI that meas urements by Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon seemed to tally with distances laid out by oilier Colonial surveyors. This discount ed the possibility that only Mason and Dixon used measuring chains that were too long, lie said. Aleade figured the Colonial foot was about one-fourth of an inch longer than the modern version. In laying out the line. Mason and Dixon's men set up stone markers at what they thought were mile intervals. But tlic 1061 survey discovered that the mark ers were about one mile and 10 feet from each otlicr. In some cases, the distance was a mile and 12 (eel. Castro Warns U.S., Britain MIAMI (UPD-Premier Fidel Castro warned today that his forces w ill attack any Cuban exile bases set up on British and French islands in the Caribbean. Speaking to shipyard workers at the northern coastal port of Car denas, the Cuban leader told France and Britain to "be care ful" not to permit his anti-Communist foes to operate from any of their Caribbean dependencies. He said his troops during the past eight weeks have "liquidated 14 bands of counter-revolutionaries" in Matanzas Province. All were "organized" by the U.S. counter-intelligence agency, lie charged.
