BUCKEYE BRIEFS
Taft hints at compromise
COLUMBUS (AP) - Gov. B.ob Taft 1S hinting he might not
oppose a bill allowing Ohioans to · carry concealed weapons if it's
.coupled with his proposed safe storage of firearnu legW;otion.
The safe-storage bill died in conmtittee this year under heavy
attack by sport5men and gun interests, while the concealed-carry
measure stayed bottled up in a House conmtittee last year under
· threat of a Taft veto.
Taft indicated on Tui:Sday he might consider linking the two bills.
"We wouldn't rule that out, bur we're nor going in with that strategy," Taft told The Columbus Dispatch.
House Spe,aker-clect Larry Householder and Senate President
Richard Finan say they will have the votes to legalize concealed
weapons when the Republican-controlled legislarure is seated in
·January.
· The concealed-&lt;:arry measure would allow Ohioaru ro carry
weapons as long as they are adults, don't use them for crintinal purpas"' and don't take them to places, such as schools, where guns are
prohibited.
Law enforcement groups strongly oppose the idea and Taft has said
in the past he would not tavor such legislation without their support.
· The safe-storage bill would have required adults to keep firearnu
and ammunition away from children while they are unsupervised. It
would have created a new provision in existing child endangerment
(aws lor parents whose children get access to firearnu.

Employees to ·receive settlement
COLUMBUS (AP) -Eight fired government employees will get
a total of $800,000 as a settlement to a long-standing lawsuit.
. The settlement was approved Tu.,.day by Franklin County comJ,llissioners who voted 2-1 to pay the money to the eight who had
worked in the county auditor's office.
They were swept out of office about eight years ago when Joe
Testa became auditor.
Testa decided to remove 16 top managers the month he took over.
He said he · consulted with the county prosecutor's office and
thought he could dismiss the employees because they did not have
civil-service p.rote~tion.
"I felt I should have the right to name my own management
team," Testa said Tu"'day.
The eight, who asked for $2.4 million in damages, contended in
their federal suit that Testa didn't have the right to terminate them.
John Marshall, one of the attorneys representing the former ·
employe.,., said the settlement was a compromise.
The suit contended that Testa couldn't fire the employees because
they weren't in "confidential policymaking positions,'' Marshall said.

Infant given new heart
WOOSTER (AP) -Tim and Kelly Hohman consider it an early
Christmas present, one they hope will last a lifetime.
Their infant daughter, Ashley. received a new heart last week, one
to replace the diseased heart she had been born with in September.
''I'd hate to downplay the true meaning of Christmas and all, but
I'd have to say Santa Claus came a little early and mom and dad are
·pretty ecstatic about it," Tim Hohman said. "We were getting to the
point where we just weren't real sure if it was ever going to happen."
·• Ashley was· born on Sept. 20 with severe congenital heart disea~e.
Doctors said her heart was like a sponge, filled with tiny holes. I[ had
never developed past the 18-. to 20-week stage, leaving it complete:ty dysfunctional.
' While the Hohrnans are grateful about their child's chance, they
can't help but feel for the family who lost the child who provided
the heart.
"We're very grateful to the family, that they had enough kindness
and generosity in their hearts," Tim Hohman said. "They probably
will never fully understand the impact of this. Hopefully, that will be
something that in the future will give them some ease."
For now, Ashley remains on a ventilator for breathing assistance at
the Cleveland Clinic.
.
· Doctors tried to take the girl off the ventilator but found that she
still needed assistance. Now they're reducing the ventilator's use by
small increments every day.
.
"Hopefully, she'll just continue to make those incremental inroads
to getting better," her father said. "Now we'll pray a lot and be
thankful that she now has a real chance to be a normal child."

Cleveland crime on upswing
CLEVELAND (AP) -A trend toward a drop in Cleveland crime
appears to be coming to an end, Police Chief Martin Flask said.
"I think we're seeing a leveling off in the decrease we've seen over
the last seven or eight years,'' Flask said. "Whether it marks a plateau
or a possible increase in crime retnalns to be seen."
The number of serious crimes in Cleveland increased slightly in
the first half of the year, according to statistics released by FBI.
The FBI's report compares the number of murders, rapes, robberies, aggravated assaults, burglanes, thefts, vehicle thefts and arson
cases from the first six months of this year to the first six months of
last year.
In Cleveland, the overall number of crimes in January through
June increased 1.5 percent, from15,511 in 1999 to 15,749 this year.
The most dramatic increases were in the number of arsons, which
rpse 37 percent. Aggravated assaults increased 21 percent and rapes
jumped 19 percent.
_
·
Flask cautioned against giving the report too much significance.
"While there is value in the report from a public-awareness standpoint, it doesn't have mu ch law enforcement value," Flask said. "It's a

snapshot in time."
Flask also said that since January 1990, murders are down 60 percent, rapes have decreased 36 percent, and the number of robberies
has dropped 42 percent.
" In discussions with my colleagues, the national trend is that
there's a flattening of crime statisticS:' he said.
Nationally, the number of crimes reported has fallen every year
since 1992. In the first six months of this year, crime fell 0.3 perce nt
compared with the like period last year.

Regulators object to coal
company's winter cleanup plans
LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) State regulators are objecting t&lt;&gt;
a coal company's plans to alter
its wintertime cleanup of a massive coal-waste spill that fouled
waterways in eastern Kentucky
and West Virginia with 250 million gallons of sludge.
Bruce Williams : deputy secretary of the state Natural·
Resources and Environmental
Ca.b inet, said Martin County
Coal Corp.'s cold-weather plan
was unacceptable.
"The Cabinet does not fmd
that the work performed to this
point is sufficient to abate violations" of Kentucky law, Williams
said in a letter to federal arid
state agencies overseeing the
cleanup.
Martin County Coal has been
working since the Oct. 11 spill.
to clean up the waste in and
along Coldwater Fork and Wolf
Creek. The release also . fouled
the Tug Fork and Big Sandy
rivers.
The coal company owns the
72-acre coal-slurry impound-

ment near Inez that failed. An ·
estimated 250 million gallons of
water and slurry gushed through
mine shafts below the impoundment and into waterways, causing what officials say is the
nation 's worst black-water spill.
The slurry was a sludgelike
mix of water, fine coal particles
'and other waste from washing
coal to prepare it for market.
The company has used several methods to clean up the
waste, including siphoning the
waste away and diverting the
flow of the creeks to dry and
remove the slurry.
In a plan it wanted to put in
.place from Dec. II through
March, the company said it
would discontinue diverting
Water on the two creeks by this
Friday. It said the pumping
equipment would be demobilized by Jan . 1.
The company said it planned
to do the same with a pump system that removes waste from
Wolf Creek ,

Parents angry over
child-support system
. CINCINNATI (AP) - Parents who are not getting monthly checks or who are being
incorrectly listed as delinquent
after the state's takeover of the
child-support
system
two
months ago are angry and frustrated.
The .problems' have prompted
angty parents to scream at county caseworkers. They should be
· directing their anger at state officials, who caused most of the
problems and are the ones who
must fix them, Hamilton County human services director Don
Th&lt;&gt;mas said in a report.
Thomas' staff compiled a
memo describing the biggest
errors taxpayers have faced - or
that caseworkers have experienced in trying to fix the errors.
State officials were not aware
of many of the problenu, Ohio
Department of Job and Family
Services spokesman Jon Allen
said Tuesday. Allen said h'e has
heard some complaints from
other counties but not the
amount supplied by Hamilton
County.
"If they believe there are
instances where things have happened, we would certainly want
to hear about it,'' he said.
Errors describ.ed in the memo
include child support payments
sent to the wrong accounts
when employers send in a check
for more than one employee
without listing the employees'
account nmnbers.
Some parents' also have been
falsely
report~d
to credit
bureaus, the Internal Revenue
Service and Ohio Department
of Taxation for. being late in
making child-support payments
because their Social Security
numbers were wrong.

The firm chose Gallipolis to
base its plant because of its central
location to markets and raw
materials it will obtain from

Rather than build a plant from

auto parts building was available
and could meet its needs. Because
of the area's unemployment rate, a
pool of workers is already in
place, Kearney said.
"Southeastern Ohio historically has been undeveloped as far as

'AEP, under the law, can do what it wants." Cht·sh irl' Mayo r Tum

The fact a major company like AEP opted to add to the expense

and the corporation, care about their relationships with th e people

' AEP tells us safety is a primary concern, and that anhydrous
ammonia was the only known option available when . planning
btgan _to install the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) process.
"" ~ut when other, less risky options llke urea came into the picture
this year and had a proven effectiveness, AEP decided an alternative
was preferable. The cosr and pressure on the schedule to retrofit
c;avin by spring may impa ct the shareholders' dividends, but AEP
has earned the public's good will with this decision.
We applaud this effort to put people ahead .o f profit1 .
That's a tough call for a bu siness answerable to many people who
have invested in its financial future to make. But moSt investors
understand that their company's image is important to its longevity
and that listening to public concerns is vital.
AEP has established a precedent here, and it's a good one to follow.
We also tip our hats to the efforts of Cheshire residents to make
the area aware of the situation posc:d by use of anhydrous anu11011ia.
Tlte end result is a closer relation.ship with their corporate neighbor

PERKINS' VIEW

Bush should reach ,out) but not bend principles
. AI Gore lm conceded the · presidency and graciously ar that. But not so with his allies
on C:apitol HilL Nor his special interest chums.
Nor his sympathizers in the national media.
"Those who supported Bush, despite concerns about his comP,t"tence, were on a blind
mission ," said Rep. Charles Rangd, the New
York Dem()crat. "To win th e election at any

Joseph
PerKins

co~t.''

·'No final, clear determination of the peo·
ple 's choice for prt!sident wiJI ever be reached,"
declared a statement fru111 the Americans for
Democratic Action.
"Texas Gov. George W Bush will assume the
Inantle and the Qonor of president-elect:' said .
CBS News anchor Dan Rather. After the
"politically and ideologically motivated U.S.
Supreme Court ... handed the presidency to
Bush."
The Democratic left simply will not accept
that the nation's voters actually meant to elect
George W Bush. They refuse to believe that the
American people actually wanted Republicans
to be in charge of the federal government So
now they are trying to persuade the public that
the Nov. 7 election was a "split-decision."That
the voters did not prefer one party over the
other. That the American people cast a collective vote for power-sharing between Republicans and LJen1ocrats.
That has been the prevailing post-election
spin from Democratic partisans. They argue
that half the committee chairmanship~ in the
Senate ought to go to Democrats because the
upper chamber is divided 50-SO.And they suggest that Bush ought to appoint three or four
or more Democrats to his Cabinet, as a gesture
of bipartisanship.
Well, here's a reality check for the GoreDemocratic partisans: Your defeat on Election
Day .was complete.

NEA COLUMNIST
That will be quite i!pparent on Jan. 22
when, for the first time in nearly a .l:tdf-century, Republicans will control ·the W,hite House
and both houses of Congress.
And not to be overlooked is that Republicans boa&lt;&gt;t a majority of the nation's governorships while controlling the same number of
state legislatures as the Democrats.
Yes, the presidential race w:is arguably the
closest in history.Yes, the margins of majority in
the House and Senate are the narrowest since
the 83rd Congress, in I 953-1955. Nevertheless, it is the party of Bush that enjoys these
majorities. The party to which the voters have
entrusted the reins of power for at least the
next two years.
That is not to say that Bush and the Republicans can feel free to govern without consideration ol the Democratic minority. But as the
victors on Election Day (however close the
margin), they should not have political terms
dictated to them by the losing Democrats.
By all means, the Bush White House and the
Republican-controlled Congress should make
a bow to bipartisanship. For there are a number
of issues that have been ignored during the past
eight years in Washington - like Social Security reform and Medicare reform -because of

rancor b:twecn the two parti es .
But Bllsh and the Republic.:am mu st not
sacrifice core principles for th e sake of biparti:
sanship. They must not giw in to call , from the
l)cmocratic-leanmg national media, in patti cu. .
lar to govern from the putative "centt'r." For by
"centt·r," the reporters and opinionists at the
New York Times, Washington Post and Lm
Angeles Times, and the correspondents and
commentators at CBS, ABC, NBC ,111d CNN
actually mean " left-of-center." They want
George W. Uush to transmogrify into Uill Clmton. They want Trent Lott and Dennis Hastert
to become Tom Daschle and Dick Gephardt.
.Of course, .that means abandoning tax cuts,
missile defense, legal reform, sc hool vouchers
and other items for which Bush stumped during his presidential campaign. And it means
abandoning the constituency that delivered
both the White House and Cungress to
Republican hands.
President-elect Bush should make a concerted effort to reach out to the half of Americans who supported AI Gore on Election Day.
He should also make an effort to find common
ground with Democrats of goodwill in Congress. ·
Dut Bush must not take his core R.epublican
supporters for granted. For it is they - not the
Democrats on Capital Hill , not the pro-Gore
special interests, and certainly not the national
media- that stood by him when the outcome
of the presidential election was in doubt. And it
is they who will stand by him, in good times
and bad, for better and for worse. during his
next four years in the White House.

RED GREEN'S VIEW

Fix a problem) then foel.like you)re in control
BY

RED GREEN

I remember when I was a kid we had an old
pull-stJ.rt lawnmower. You'd de a knot ln one
end ofa rope and hook that into the hub on
top, and then give it a good yank. Sometimes, if
your brotllt'r was ~ta nding too close, the knotted en d nl the rope would whip out and nail
him the groinal area. That was always good for
.1 laugh .
Eventually the knot would break . off. and
you'd have tu tie another a11d then another and ,
111 nme, the rope gor too short to use. So you'd
go to the hard ware 'itore and buy a new piece
Jn d stdrt the prou:s~ aU o,vcr agai n. ft was incOnve nil'~lt .md sonwtunes 'irritating, but, on the
othL·r lund, it was simpll:' and yo u .1lw&lt;1ys kn ew
ho\A.' to fi x the problem, and thou made you feel
&lt;;tro ng anJ in control .
'
Now. of cour'ic, we aiii1Jve electric-start ridmg mowcro;. That'.;; progres.&lt;&gt;. Th ey're way easier
to start and do a better, faster cutting job, but on
the down..,ide when something goes wrong, you
have no 1dea how to fix it, and that makes you
fed weak and out of control. Plus, when you
n:Jil your broth1er in th e gruinal area with one of
thme babJL''I. Jt can be seri o us.
The sliding scale
I ~o m ctm l&lt;:::'i find it amazing th at we- all have
\lll"h ditTt:ring opiniom about eac h other. I
tllHik 1t\ because WL' pay o;o much attenti9n to
our&lt;&gt;cives. We look 111 tbc mirror a lot, and we
oftL:n Ji..,tcn to \vh .1t we h&lt;lVC to ~ay much more

intcndy, because we consider our comments to
he the highlight of the conversation . We are
very familiar with ourselves physically, mentally
and spiritually so we each become th e mcasming device by which we judge the world around

us.
So when we ~ay someone is smart or attractive, we really mean " by comparison ." For
example, I think Regis Philbin is a pretty smart
guy, but would Albert Einstein tccl th e same
way abo ut him? Of course the corolla ry to thi'
theory is that you're going to be judged the
same: way. You will only seem smart to people
who are dumber than you, and you wtll only
seem attrJctive to peopl e who an.· uglier th an
you.Youmight want to k~~_:p th at i11 1nind wh~,.'n
you're looking for friends or IOtdmatcs.
Now, occasionaJly you see an exceptio n, like
in my case where you fmd an ugly guy marri ed
to a beautiful woman. But that's not Science.
That's Love. Or Martyrdom.
An ounce of preparalion
With luck, we all get old. But you need to be
doing thin~ now, while you still have your faculties, that will make your old age as enjoyable
as poSiible. I'm 1ure you'll be able to comt• up
with idetlS yuursdves, but here .1rc ,\ t"Cw w get

• Buy trophies at garage sales and scatter them
all over your house.
• Make up incredible stories about your life.
Nobody's going to listen to you anyway; you·

• Fmd thmgs that inn.·rest and excite you, and

An hour less sleep
reduces alertness as
much as two beers
Question: I can't seem to get
enough sleep because of the
demands of work gnd faniily.
Obviously. I'm tired at times, but
I could get even more done if I
didn 't need to waste so much
time with sleep. Do you have any
suggestions on balancing sleep,
work and family1 or as an alternative, would you lengthen the day'
Answer: I've had a number of
people express the view that. it
would be wonderful if they could
use that "wasted" cine third of
their life spent in sleep to do
somethtng productive. Sleep IS an
important but mysterious pottlon
Of our lives. To cha raccerize it as
non-productive or "w;~sted,"
bow~vL'r, rdl~ cts our g-encr;}1 lack
of lmderkmding of the sl~~P
proc~ss. Perhaps th1s common
view comt.'S Jbout bt.'CHISt:- skt·p
- hkt..• food or L'Xercisl"- em bt:'
negk([t.'d for a o;hort period to

accomplish some 1111\lh:Jiate ~pin .
We know. ho\\'l'\"LT. that lack of
adequ.ltt.' food and exacisc ovl'r a
period of tim~ k:Jds to . illness.
The g~:ncrally acceptt'li view is
th:~t we ;1dults need about t:ighr
hours of slet:p eve-ry night .
Unfortun:ltdy. sinct' th~: dawn of
the ~ndustrial rl'Volution the
sleep / wake cycle has bee11 s&lt;t by
someone else ratha than by our
individual biologic needs . The
demands of life today make it difficult for most Of us to consistently get seven or seven and one-half
hours of sleep. As a basis for comparison, in the last century before
the widespread use of electric
lights, most of our ancestors got
about nine hours of sleep each
night.
So what do we gam in compensation for the sleep we've lost
when compared to our ancestors
100 years ago? Obviously, we gain
an hour or more of awake activity. That time can be spent completing that report for work,
cleaning the house, helping th e
kids with homework or spending
quality time with family or
friends . C\1V personal view is that
too much of it is wasted watching
TV. but that is another story'

The cost of this lost sleep IS
difricult to tally. Inadequate sleep
produces a number of subtle
changes. It tends to make most
people more irritable, although
most don't recognize their lack of
sleep as being the cause of their
mood. Instead, it is easier to point
to the stressful events of the day
- the boss, the spouse, the kids,
the teacher, etc. Lack of sleep also
has a negative influence on concentration. Sleeping just 30 minutes less than you need can
adversely impact your learning
and problem solving. This translates into de creased productivity
at work or s~hool. Shortening
your night's sleep by one hour
ca n produce as much impairment
as drinking two alcoholic drinks.
Theconsequences of this should
be clear without additional explanations .
A simple clue to your sleep
needs can be found from your .
answers to tbe fo1lowing questions. Oo vou "c rash" for 10 or 12'
hours on the weekl'nd or on
\".lc.:ttion? Do you have skepy
spl'lls during the- day? Do you '
nt.•ed an .1brm dock to gl't you
up in th_l.' morning? Do y&lt;)ll tind
it difficult to cnncl'ntrate on th~
t;tsk .u h.md? If you answcrl'd
''yes" to .t,ny of these qu"-·stwns.
thc..·n you probably art'n't getting
atkquate sl . ·cp
. at night.
I bn't increase the numbCr of
ho urs in your day, but I think you
will bo pleasantly surprised at the
cl1:1nge s getting more sleep can
bring. The inc rease d vigor &lt;HH.i
.tbility to conce ntrate chat ;}Ccompanies being well rested usually
more than compensates for ·thc:additional minutes of sleep it
takes to produce this state. The
first thing I'd sugge&lt;t you do is get
that extra sleep on the \veekend,
then head to your library or book
store for a copy oiThe Promise of
Sleep by William C. Dement,
M.D., Ph.D. Though Dr. Dement
is a noted scholar in the field of
sleep research, I think you will
find his book quite readable and
informative.

As big-vehicle sales soar,
ga~ileage

hits 20-year l~w

WASHINGTON (AP)
America's love affair with gasguzzling sport utility vehicles
and pickups is keeping national
fuel economy at a 20-year low,
the government says.
With automakers focusing on
the bigger, more powerful vehicles, the Environmental Protection Agency found that average
gasohne mileage for 2000 model
year passenger vehicles was 24
miles per gallon, the same as last
year and the .lowest since 1980.
The figure had climbed to 25.9
mpg in I 987 and 1988.
The drop in fuel economy
corresponds to a surge in sales of
"light trucks," which include
vans, pickup trucks and sport
utility -:ehides. Those now
. account for 46 percent of all
U.S. passenger vehicle sales.
Light trucks tend to weigh
more than cars and get fewer
miles to the gallon. :rhe average
2000 car gets 28 . 1 mpg, while
.light trucks get 20.5 mpg.
"Consumers want cars that
have certam performance features," said Gloria Bergquist,
spokeswoman of the Alliance of
Automobile Manufacturers that
lobbies qn behalf of 13
automakers. '"We sell cars that
get 40 miles per gallon, but
fewer. than 2 percent of consumers buy them."
But Dan Becker, director of

the Sierra Club's global warming program, said Tuesday that
automakers spend much of their
huge advertising budgets pushing
lower-mileage
SUVs
because they are so profitable.
"They have found that the
American public will buy a large
pile of steel with plush seats and
cup holders, despite the fac't that
they will guzzle gas, pollute the
air and roll over and kill people,"
he said.
Better , gas mileage would
reduce oil consumption, lower
fuel costs and lower carbon
dioxide emissions, he said. Passenger vehicles discharge about
20 percent of the carbon dioxide
emissions in the United States.
The federal government's
Corporate Average Fuel Economy standards, adopted in 197 5 to
boost fuel economy, require each
automaker to reach a 27.5 mpg
average fuel economy on new ·
passenger cars and 20.7 mpg for
light trucks. The automakers do
not have reach the standard for
each vehicle, but their entire
fleet must meet the average.

Critics say the standards are
too low, but since 1996 the auto
industry has successfully lobbied
Congress to block the Clinton
administration from even studying a possible increase.

WASHINGTON (AP) . Kent Markus' loss will be some
Republican's gain.
Markus, a Columbus, Ohio
lawyer with an armload of
Democratic Party credentials,
was nominated early this year for
a lifetime appointment as a federal ~ppellate judge. But the
Repub1ican-controlled Senate
Judiciary Committee never held
a confirmation hearing.
The job on the Cin~innati­
based 6th U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals is still open, and President-elect Bush will fill that
vacancy and 65 others on federal courts around the country.
Add in the Republican
change of command in the Justice Department, and a wealth of
opportunity opens up for ambi- '
ticius GOP lawyers, including
some who might otherwise be
fighting over statewide offices.

Ohio Republicans say top
prospects for either the 6th Circuit post or for the U.S. District
Court for the Northern District
of Ohio include state Attorney
General Betty Montgomery,
District Judge Sandra Beckwith,
state Supreme Court Justice
D eborah Cook, Columbus
lawyer N. Victor Goodman, and
Rep. Deborah Pryce, a former
judge.
For U.S. attorney, Bush might
consider Montgomery; Lt. Gov.
Maureen O'Connor or state
Auditor Jim Petro, both of
whom have backgrounds as
prosecutors;
and ·
Ralph
Koehnen, an assistant federal
prosecutor in Cincinnati.
Franklin County Commissioner Dewey Stokes is the first
name that comes up in speculation about possible federal marshal prospects.

ATHENS, Ohio (AP)
Brandon Hunter had IS points
and 16 rebounds to led a balanced Ohio attack as the Bobcats defeated West Virginia 7967 Tuesday night.
WVU coach Gale Catlett
said the game was "the poorest
shooting game of the year" for
the Mountaineers (6-2).
Nonstarter Lionel Armstead
scored 16 for the Mountaineers. Also in double figures
for West Virginia were Brooks
Berry with 12 points, CalVin
Bowman with 11 and Chris
Moss with 10.
"We didn't shoot the baD
very well," Catlett said . "I
don't know if we wen: thinking about Christmas or what,
but we sure didn't shoot it
very well. But our kids played
hard and I think we will
bounce back."
Ohio coach Larry Hunter
said the game was "a character
check" for the Bobcats.
"The only thing I told them ·
before the game was that I
don't care if it was pretty or it
was ugly. It just had to be one

point better," Hunter said.

Oops! Last month, Gap Stores

yet Deep Finesse, written · by
William Bailey, has reduced the
number. It is a wonderful doubledummy solving program. You
feed in the cards and name the
contract, then Deep Finesse
quickly works out the result, even
suppl yi ng the necessary analysis.
Of course, one has to be careful
not to rei y totally on the program.
There are certain plays one would
find only by being able to peek ai
all 52 cards, which Deep Finesse
does .
Here is a deal from a tournament in Deauville, France. If you

hand and the dummy, how would ·

to East's king . Now, however,
East plays a spade to his partner's
king, and West continues with the
spade 10. If you ruff in the dummy, West must win a trump trick.
Add to that East's diamond king,
and you are one down . If you ruff
in hand and draw trumps, when
you take the losing diamond

How do you make the con·
tract? By playing a hean to dummy's ace .. a double-dummy play .
