Proposed
'Good Play
At Columbia
By OSWALD JACOBY
Newspaper Enterprise Assn.
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.

Answer Tomorrow
WASHINGTON (UP) - Sen.
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

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

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.

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

200 years ago was longer than
that today. Meade said in a pa-

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.

and Dixon's men set up stone

were mile intervals. But tlic 1061

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,
