X i PARTY GOODS for Your Cocktail Prt STATIONERY SHAW 729 Main Easy Slam Hard To Bid By OSWALD JACOBY I Newspaper Enterprise Assn. Some nt the easiest slams to make are hardest to bid. At six clubs .South has to remember to ruff one diamond, in dummy be fore drawing trumps, after which he must discard his jack, five and three of hearts on dummy's long spades. South can also make five hearts or North five spades, but the major suit slams don't make he- cause the heart finesse is needed and it doesn't work. The bidding shown in the box . is the way one expert pair bid this slam. The first bid that quires explanation is North's raise from two to three hearts. In some circles South miglH well have nassed that bid, but in that parti cular sector the three-heart bid. was what might be called an in ferential force. So South went on to four hearts whereupon North continued his snaillike pace with a bid of five clubs. South really thought about pass ing this one. but he realized that North was indicating a singleton diamond. Hence, South decided nlhat there might be a slam, but South wasn't going to commit himself that far. He just wenti on to five hearts. North might have passed at. this point, but he thought that his very good spades warranted get ting to six. North did not want ui place the slam, but he knew how to get South to place it. North's five-spade bid just asked South to choose between six hearts and six clubs and South made the right choice.

Builder of these 53-foot-long cars is Gunderaon Bros. Engineering Corp., Portland. Initial 400-car order is currently being delivered. Remaining 750 cars will be placed in service during the next sev eral months. 2. Conversion of 750 standard box cars to wide-door design v for shipments of Oregon plywood. The new 10-foot doors on these 40-foot-long cars permit fast mechanical loading and unloading. Diagonal door stripe codes cars for immediate return to Oregon. 3. Another 500 double-dOOr bOX Cars, added to S.P.'s wide-door fleet in 1962, and now assigned to Oregon service for hauling plywood and packaged lumber. Like the newly converted wide-door box cars, these 50-foot-Iong, "yellow door" cars say, "Send me back to Oregon." 4. 1,300 new "king-sized" Hydra-Cushion box cars being delivered U S.P. this summer and fall, are well suited for carrying paper, canned goods, and other Oregon products needing extra protection. These new 60-foot cars can carry twenty percent more freight than 50-foot box cars. 5. New "floating-load" tie-dOWn technique can speed loading and reduce shipping costs for other forest products besides finished lumber. Here, twenty huge rolls of ' paperboard ride secure and protected on one of S.P.'s new 6'i-fool, Oregon-built flat cars. These latest additions to the Southern Pacific freight fleet are part of S.P.'s expanded, multi-million dollar program to provide Oregon industries with the special equipment they need to move Oregon products to market. Moreover, the stepped-up order for flat cars represents a significant contri bution to Oregon's economy, both in dollar volume and in use of Oregon materials and manpower. Overall, these new S.P. equipment purchases boost Southern Pacific's expenditures above $187 million for more than 19,000 new freight cars in the past six years. ? ,;, , pf, urn wm hi i :M MM M i H 1 I 11 1 '.1 i inn ii.ina.il riiiMi"-"" 5. them pacific Serving the Golden Empire with TRAINS TRUCKS PIGGYBACK PIPELINES
