By Oiwald Jacoby
and Alan Sonlag
Pre-emptive bids can be
two-edged swords. Sometimes
they impede the opponents
from reaching their proper
contract and at other times
they give declarer a valuable
clue in the play.
South probably should have
doubled at his first opportuni-
ty, but his three-heart over-
call struck good support and
was raised to game. t,.
The opening club lead was
obvious West switched to a
trump at the second trick and
declarer drew two rounds
with his ace and king.
South hoped for an even
division in spades to accom-
modate his club loser He
played the ace, king and
oueen of spades, but they
failed to split However, South
had another thought. Clubs,
because of the bidding and the
early defense, were obviously
divided seven-one.
What if he played the fourth
round of spades and discarded
his club loser? West would be
left on play with nothing but
diamonds to lead. Declarer
would lose one club, one spade
and only one diamond Conse-
quently, South led the fourth
spade and pitched his club
loser on his spade loser, which
effectively end played West
South “guessed" how to
play diamonds by having the
opponents play them for him.

passengers the writer said the
airlines were constantly

Small wonder somq, passengers

You replied, “The first-class
passengers do not pay for
liquor, and there is very little
profit, if any, made on the booze
sold in economy class.”
Well, I think you are wrong.
Those miniatures are pretty
darned small and they go for
$1.50 each so there must be a
neat profit someplace. How

Dear Sam: Sorry, there’s no
need for the fuel hose today.
Hear this from Harding L.
Ixiwrence, chairman of the
lioard of Braniff International.
“There was a time when the
airlines did make money on
lfquor sales. However, with the
increased costs of ice, plastic
glasses, labor and service
charges connected with the
total beverage package on each
flight, we barely break even.”
Hal Carr, chairman of the"
board of Republic Airlines,

Dear Ann Landers: Three

baby boy I became pregnant

We argued a lot, and I felt

children. I discussed it with my

The gospel according to Nielsen
ABC regains ratings lead;
'60 Minutes' tops charts
i •
NEW YORK (AP) - CBS
posted six of the week's 10
highest-rated programs — and
took first place with “60
Minutes” — but lost the net-
works' three-way race to ABC
for the first time since the
Winter Olympics, according to
the latest A.C. Nielsen Co.
survey.
CBS had been building
momentum in the ratings
competition during the early
part of the year, but ABC took
charge in mid-February with
broadcasts of the Winter
Olympics from lake Placid,
N.Y. CBS had resumed its
challenge to ABC's supremacy
two weeks ago.
Even though it had only two
programs in the Nielsen's Top
10 for the week ending March
16, ABC finished the most
recent survey with a rating of
18.6 to 18.3 for CBS. NBC was
third at 17.4.
The networks say that means
in an average prime-time
minute during the week, 18.6
percent of the homes in the
country with television were
tuned to ABC.
ABC’s Ifead over CBS for the
season to date is two-tenths ofea
point.
NBC’s top-rated program was
“Real People,” No. 5 in the
ratings, with ABC’s best for the
week, “Three’s Company,” in
seventh place. “That’s In-
credible,” ABC’s answer to
“Real People,” was No. 10.
The rating for “60 Minutes,”
the season's No. 1 program, was
28.8. Nielsen says that-means of
all the TV-equipped homes in
the country, 28.8 percent saw at
least part of the show. It was the
third time in two months that
the news shows was the most-
watched in the nation.
It was a week of specials and
premieres, and nearly all of
them struggled in the ratings.
A special preview of NBC’s
"Facts of Life,” was No. 16,
with the regular Friday night
show 53rd. “The American
Film Institute Salute to James
Stewart’’ on CBS was No. 26,
with ABC’s first-run airing of
the movie “Force 10 from
Navarone” 31st and NBC’s
special Sunday night premiere
of “From Here to Eternity,” a
new series, was 44th.
The week’s top programs:
"60 Minutes,” with a rating of
28.8 representing 22 million
homes, “Dukes of Hazzard”
and “M-A-S-H,” both 26.9 or 20.5
million, and “Alice,” 26.6 or 20.3
million, all CBS; "Real
People,” 26.5 or 20.2 million,
NBC; “Dallas,” 25.7 or 21.1
million, CBS; “Three’s Com-
pany,” 24.9 or 19 million, ABC;
“One Day at a Time,” 24.5 or
18.7 million, CBS; "Diff’rent
Strokes,” 24.4 or 18.6 million,
NBC, and “That’s Incredible,”
23.6 or 18 million, ABC.
Next were “Archie Bunker's
Place” and “House Calls,” both
CBS; tie; “Barney Miller,”
ABC; “CHiPs,” NBC, “Lou
Grant,” CBS, and “Facts of
Life,” Wednesday special,
NBC, tie; "Benson” and
“Taxi,” both ABC, tie; ”20-20”
and ”Vega$,” both ABC.
Can’t seal her jam
By Pollv Cramer
POLLY’S PROBLEM
DEAR POLLY — I would like to know if the Pointer
about putting wax in the bottom of jars to seal jelly
would also work for jams such as strawberry. My jam
never seems to be completely covered even with two
coatings. — VALERIE
DEAR VALERIE — Jam is thick and full of berries
so I would pour the parpffin wax on the top to seal it.
Perhaps you are being too economical with your wax as
it should seal if you have a nice thick coating. Ladies, do
you have any further advice for Valerie? — POLLY
DEAR POLLY — Before setting a mouse trap I put a 4 or 5-
inch square piece of clear plastic wrap on the floor under it.
When the trap has caught a mouse I simply pick up the four
corners of the wrap and throw the whole thing away, I would
never touch a dead mouse or a trap that has caught one as I
fe^l that could spread germs. — SUE
DEAR POLLY — To keep a satin comforter from slipping
off the bed I clip the top sheet and the comforter together with
a spring type clothespin — three on each side, one at the top
and another at the bottom in the middle. The sheet usually
stays where it is placed so the comforter stays on with it.
When the bed is made in the morning the clothespins can be
removed and placed in a nearby drawer unless the comforter
is covered by a spread so thick they will not show through. —
