p Limp Handshaker F Needs Kind Hint By ANN LANDERS Dear Ann Landers: My hus band has a business friend who i a grand person of excellent , character. Mr. F. C. (Fine Citizen) has i contributed great deal to ! o u r commu nity and he U admired and re spected by all I who know him. Mr. F. C. has a fault which is widely discussed behind his back but nobody wants to come right out and tell him. He has a hand shake like a dead fish. I feel it is sheer gutlessness on the part of people w ho call them selves "friends" to keep quiet about this. Isn't it a shame for Mr. F. C. to go through life with this terrible fault when it could be so easily remedied? I've urged my husband to do this man a favor and tell him. My husband says he has no de sire to make anybody over, nor does he want to jeopardize his friendship by risking offending the man. What do you say? TO TELL OR NOT TO TELL? Dear To Tell: People are not born with a firm handshake or with a limp one. It's something they learn. Apparently Mr. F. C. has been Jctcoby On Bridge NORTH 19 A 86 VQJ873 AS 754 WEST EAST Not Shown Not Shown SOUTH (D) A AQ V AK962 KQ6 4982 No one. vulnerable Sonth West North East 1 V Pass 2 V Pass 4 V Pass Pass Pass Opening lead K Never Give Up On Finesses By OSWALD JACOBV Newspaper Enterprise Assn. A new book bv Marshall Miles is called "All Fifty-two Cards. The theme of llie book is to show how a player w ho only sees his hand and dummy can visua lize the location of the whole 52 He doesn't suggest that you can always locate all the cards but he points out that you can and should make certain assiimp- tions and use them as vour base of operations. His first hand is about the only really simple one in the book. ' You arrive at four hearts on . straightforward bidding. West opens the king of clubs and con tinues with the queen. East over takes with the ace and leads a third club on which West dis cards the nine of spades. Now East leads a low spade and things look pretty hopeless. Surely West has given an honest spade signal with that nine spot, but hopeless or not your only play to make your contract is to take the spade finesse. You as sume that if West has the king you are gone anyway, but that maybe East holds it. So you take your one chance and finesse the queen. I am not going to tell you if the finesse works. I can't because Marshall doesn't tell his read ers. But he points out that you should never give up and that the finesse risks nothing. If East held a singleton spade lie could ruff a spade return, but in that case West would have been dealt eight spades to the king and the king-queen of clubs and would surely have entered into the bidding some time or other.

When we pulled into his drivewav we found his son and daughter-in-law's car parked there. Without saying a word Theodore backed richt out of the driveway and drove me straight home. He offered no explanation but said, "1 11 phone you later in the week." What do you make of his strance ve- havior?

Dear Ann Landers: My daugh ter is 16 years of age. She is a good-looking girl with a beauti ful, clear, peaehes-and-crcam complexion. Yet she insists on covering her face with a Dan- cake foundation which gives her an artificial, masked look. She makes up only her face and for gets about her neck, so of course, her neck is about five shades lighter. Several of her girl friends do this, also. One friend has an un fortunate complexion and t h e make-up does cover some of the blemishes. But why would young girls with lovely complexions want to cover them with make up? Please explain. ONLY HER MOTHER Dear Only: Girls who do this imagine the gunk makes them look glamorous.

Reactions Unpleasant In Gemini Spacecraft Tests By ALVIN B. WEBB JR. CAPE CANAVERAL (UPD The federal space agency is up set over the prospect that the up coming Gemini flights into space could make human milk-shakes out of America's astronauts. As matters stand today, the first Gemini pilots would go bouncing off into orbit at the rate of 660 bounces per minute. That's enough to jar the teeth of a hippopotamus. The culprit in this particular potful of Gemini problems is the Titan-2 rocket that will boost the capsule and its two men. Tech nicians have discovered the rock et is a sort of flying accordion. vibrating up and down at the rate of 11 cycles per second. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) told United Press International that "NASA considers the pres ent level of oscillation as unsuit able for a manned vehicle." Intfa-service memos on the subject are phrased considerably stronger. Space agency officials said that if rocket, spacecraft and space men alike go around bouncing 11 times every second there would be "potential degradation of the functional capabilities of the pi lots." Translation: The astronauts would be shaken to the eyeballs It is admittedly a bit difficult to see anything clearly while one's head is going up and down 660 times per minute HI cycles per second times 60 seconds!. ". . . The relative motion be twecn the pilot's head and the in strument panel, which also would be vibrating, could make it oil ficult for pilots to read instru ments accurately," as NASA says. Reactions Unpleasant Another space agency official savs tests in the 11-cyclo-per-sec- ond area have turned up a long ao thorough that turTereri made astoninhing atatementa like "Pilec bare ceased to be a problem!" The secret is a new healing sub stance ( Bio-I)yne)-discoery of a world-famous research institute. This substance it now available in fuppoiifory or ointment form under the name Preparation H. At ail drug counters. gur list of reactions by pilots, "most of them unpleasant." Scientists have concluded from their studies of Titan-2 military test shots at Cape Canaveral that the critical vibrations start a lit tle more than one minute after blast-off, and that they last for about 20 seconds or so. The problem and the rcsponsi bility for its solution has been dumped back into the lap of the Air Force, which had the Titan-2 problems and all built to its specifications in the first place. The difficulty has been duly ac corded a name: "Pogo-slick ef fect." It has been more or less pin pointed: ". . . Evidently originat ing as a pressure disturbance in propellant pumping and piping system which results in vari ations in engine thrust, which feeds back through tile vehicle's structure, further amplifying the pressure disturbance . . ." A two-point general course of action has been proposed: 1. Stop the vibrations; 2. fix up things in the place where they started; i.e., the fuel pumps and lines. Never Worries Tile Air Force has been flying Titan-2 missiles or going on two years, but never worried about tlie "pogo-stick effect" because the nuclear -warheads the rocket was designed to carry don't have eyeballs to shake or teeth to rat tle or stomachs to churn. NASA long ago selected Titan-2 as the Gemini capsule booster, and has had its scientific fingers in the rocket's innards for a year or more without notable re sults, he problem is slill there, on every Titan-2 that flies from Cape Canaveral. Asked whether the "pogo-stick" cause-effect-solution would delay Gemini's schedule, the space ag ency answered with a firm "no." There is a (air amount of rea son for this indication of confi dence. Project Gemini already is more than a year behind sched ule, and it will be another 14 months October, 1964 be fore the first pair of astronauts will board the capsule for a flight into space. That leaves a goodly slice of time (or finding some way to take the spring out of the fly ing pogo-stick.

Scandal Girls On Blacklist Their brief flutter in the public eye began in June when War Minister John Profumo resigned after admitting he had lied to parliament about his relationship with Miss Kecler. He had been intimate with her at the same time she had been romancing Eugene lvanov, assis tant naval attache at tlie Soviet Embassy in London. Mandy was a friend of Chris tine's and like her a protege of Dr. Stephen Ward, the cafe society osteopath, playboy and artist who died Aug. 3 from an overdose of drugs alter being convicted on charges of living off the prostitu tion earnings of Christine and Mandy. He died before learning the verdict. Caught In Spotlight For a few short weeks, Chris tine's and Mandy's names rang around the globe. Newspapers and magazines printed their phot- tographs, interviewed them, and their disclosures rocked the na tion. Television and film companies vied to get the two beauties be fore the cameras. Newspapers fought to buy their life stories. Their every word was recorded. their every movement noted, com mented upon or watched. For Mandy, the vivacious blonde who had lived until the age of 16 with her middle-class parents in industrial Birmingham the limelight could not be strong enough. To a party of American tourists at London Airport who asked her who she was, she re plied delightedly: "I am famous. I will go down in the history books as another Lady Hamilton." To lithe, auburn-haired Chris tine, a country girl who came to London five years ago to begin a modeling career, the blaze of publicity brought riches, too. She was described in private and by friends as "gay... exciting ...beautiful ...reckless ...wild with ambition , . .high spirited . ."

Balloon Bursts Then, suddenly, tlie tarnish be gan dulling the glitter. Late in June, police said they had received anonymous tele phone calls threatening Chris tine's life. Policemen were sent to guard her home. In July came the Ward trial, and both were witnesses against him. Their stories added new chapters to the sordid story. Judge and jury alike counted on their fingers to figure out how many men Christine and Mandy had entertained for money, for fun or for favor. So much that had seemed glamorous at first became tarnished in the full light Joseph Mourat, owner of the L'Hirondelle restaurant, withdrew his offer for Christine to appear in cabaret. He claimed he had received letters threatening to bomb his club, and member" of tlie cast said they would walk out if Christine appeared. Her film plans were snarled when the executive committee of Equity, the actors' trade union, decided it could not accept her as a member .so she could play herself in the film of her life.

In the United States, Immi gration Commissioner Ray Far rcll said he was taking the "strongest legal steps" to see that neither girl wus permitted to land in America. Twice Christine was booed and jeered by angry women, once she was tlie target of eggs. Avoid Public Christine has been almost a recluse ever since. Mandy's future, loo, is uncer tain. She also has practically dis appeared from London life. She has said she hopes to go to Rome this fall but she was not being very happy about it.
