Long ex perience has taught me that no one should hurry to bid no trump unless his hand calls for it. Unless your hand does call for a bid of some number of no-Uump you should always try to find another call. In a recent duplicate game I plnycd with a strange partner who had the bad luck to make several most unfortunate no calls. Each one illustrated a good reason why no-trump should not be bid and each was properly punished. Here is the first one. South had no reason to bid over East's one diamond. His re double had shown strength and I could be trusted to find an other bid when it became my turn. Once he bid one no-trump I raised him to three. West opened a diamond and my queen of diamonds became of no value. Eventually, South lost four diamonds and a club and we were down one trick. Had I been declarer at no trump there would have been no way to keep me from mak ing nine tricks and I probably would have made 10 or II. How could we get to three no-trump from my seal? Easy for good players. South would pass the one diamond call. I would go to two clubs and now it would be up to South to make a really good bid! South should bid two diamonds. This bid would not really be a slam try, but an invitation for mo to bid either a major suit or some number of no-trump. 1 would bid two no-lrump with my par tial diamond stopper and South would raise to three.

Moin OPEN EVERY NIGHT Till 8 PM STOREWIDE SALE IN PROGRESS LUCAS By ZAN STARK SALEM (UPI I Everyone ex pects next Novembers election to produce some sweeping changes in legislative member shipbut nobody seems to know what changes to expect. Will it be a reverse of the 1!I07 election when the Demo crats swept to power because voters reacted to Republi can lawmakers who had in creased taxes? Or will Democrats be able to expand their present unworkable 31-29 majority in the House? Gov. Mark Hatfield doesn't know. In a post-special session press conference, lie said "The legis lature redeemed itself in the eyes of the public to some ex tent." He then predicted "we will see a significant turnover in legislative personnel next year." Asked by reporters if he meant he expected Republicans to regain control, the Republi can governor replied that the turnover "will act on the legis lature as a whole." The major reason for the un , certainty of what may happen is the fact that the 90 legislators still have about 90 different ideas about the people's man dale on Oct. 15. Some believe it was a demand for economy. Olhcrs believe it was a vote against state aid to education. Some feel it was a rejection of the specific tax bill. Many believe it was a demand for a sales tax. Olhcrs say the public wants a cigarette tax. Everyone seems to want eco nomy. But nobody seems to want the kind of economy that takes money from his pet pro jects it's the other fellow's spending that's at fault.

Members of the governor's staff admit Hatfield's popularity slipped to a low ebb. There seems to be a gap In communications. State government finance is highly complex. Some agencies, such as the Highway Depart ment, are financed by so-called dedicate funds in this case the gasoline tax and are not af fected by general fund budget cuts. Oilier agencies such as wel faregot more than half of their money from county and federal matching funds, for every $1 in state money that is cut from the budget, $1.50 to $2 in matching funds is Inst. There are other agencies, such as the Department of Em ployment, that are operated en tirely with federal funds. Changes in the state's budget have no effect on operations of the department of employment. Timing was bad. At the same lime the legislature adopted a $1)0 million tax increase pack age, the federal Congress was considering a bill to cut fed eral withholding t a x e s in the face of increased federal spend ing. The state's prisons, institu tions, hospitals, colleges and universities seem gripped in a population explosion thus it costs more to operate them. The state has been operating at a deficit for years. This year the surplus ran out. There was no multi-million dollar emer gency fund to case the tax bite. Lawmakers either had to cut services and delay construction projects, or raise taxes. Tliey raised taxes. The voters revolted. The problem didn't go away when the austerity cutbacks were enacted. The problem is still there. It has simply been swept under the rug until 1U65. What will happen in '65 is still anybody's guess. Dyna-Soar Literally Never Got Off The Ground CAPE KENNEDY (L'PIl -America's Dyna - Soar space project lived a curious lite and died a curious death. Dyna - Soar was to be the world's first space glider a winged ship that astronauts could truly pilot, as opposed to the current breed of capsules that have the flying characteris tics of a rock. Except for mock - ups and rough models, Dyna-Soar never became more than a "paper project" in its seven year life despite the $400 million the Air Force pumped sometimes leisurely, sometimes frantical ly, never predictably into its blueprint blood. Dyna-Soar's 'ailing was the lack of a goal, a specific mis sion that would give it a rea son for just being. It was handi capped under Use tag of a mili tary vehicle, because the United States steadfastly refused to es tablish a military role for man ned spaceflight. Humors that Dyna-Soar would be "scrubbed," as space lin guists would say, have been rampant for years. Experts. - particularly those on the pro side felt that one of two events could save it from extinction: Creation of a military mis sion from man in space. Dyna Soar as the first in line, would have had a running start. Creation of a U. S. project to build a laboratory-type man ned platform in orbit around the earth. Such a program, it was felt, would automatically fall heir to Dyna-Soar, or an ap proximation, for use as a man euverable shuttle bus to and from the orbiting platform. Thus, it was ironic that, when U. S. military leaders an nounced last week they would finally set out along both these lines, they axed Dyna-Soar in virtually the same breath. Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara outlined plans for a house trailer-sized space lab the Air Force hopes to put in orbit by 1968. and said flatly it would be used "to determine the mili tary usefulness of man in space." Under the existing philosophy of austerity in defense opera tions, money for the new proj ect had to come, at least in part, from older programs. The "oUf" Dyna-Soar fell victim. .McNamara argued that the potential for a ferrying service did not exist with the Dyna-Soar glider. There are numerous technical and engineering ex perts that think differently the very opposite in fact. The Air Force space station will start out with a modified Gemini capsule to return as tronauts to earth. Capsules re quire precise guidance, a com plicated system of parachutes and a widespread recovery force to insure the safe return of the spacemen. Unless the United States is willing to commit itself to spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to spread a recovery fleet over half the surface of the globe every time, the cap sule technique of orbit-to-earth transportation faces a foresee able dead end. Dyna-Soar's trump suit was its theoretical maneuverability that would have permitted a returning astronaut to guide and control his descent, to land in airplane fashion on land rather than dropping like a buoyed boulder dangling at the end of a parachute somewhere at sea. Dyna-Soar is dead. But the problem of developing an ade quate, inexpensive, dependable shuttle service for orbital duty is very much alive more so, in fact, now that a space sta tion project is reality. Outside the Dyna-Soar glider, the military has or had Monday, Dec. 16. Herald News 13 Page 14 Klamath Falls no visible space bus service in j the works. The Civilian Nation al Aeronautics and Space Ad ministration (NASA 1 has been flirting with so-called "lifting bodies" such as the M2 vehicle. CHIP DIP FRIESEN-WELMAN CO.
