East drops the ten on the second round of trumps. West knows that South started with five spades and one club.

Does South have four hearts and three diamonds or five hearts and two diamonds? If South has five hearts he will be able to discard two monds from dummy on the fourth and fifth hearL. To provent this, West must lead diamends when he gets the king of hearts, If South only four hearts he can throw only one diamond from dummy. In this case West should wait for declarer to play the diamonds by himself. (This would be tial if South had K-x-x of monds.) How does West know what to do? WAIT FOR COUNT When declarer leads dummy's ten of hearts for 3 finesse, West should refuse the trick. Declarer continues with another heart from dummy.

If East followed suit be clear that South held only and West would sit back and wait for declarer to play the diamonds. Trade Talks BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) U.S. Agriculture Secretary Earl Butz is in Hungary on a three-day visit to discuss ways of increasing trade in farm products and cooperation it other agricultural projects. He arrived here Sunday as the guest al Hungary's agriculture and food minister, Pal Romanv. Some people wonder about the "personality type" most likely to take his own life; others ask about the "most methods.

In'. one particularly grisly letter, a man wrote that he had bet his wife a dollar that more people jump to their death than take overdoses. He loses. There is something new to report since our last discussion of the subject, however. Doctors in North Carolina say that Darvon, a widely prescribed painkilling drug, is replacing sleeping pills as a favorite agent used in suicides.

Drs, Arthur J. McBay and Page Hudson of the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner of North Carolina report that they "are observing a an alarming increase in North Carolina in the number of deaths attributable to It's doubtful that the phenomenon is peculiar to that state. Propoxyphene is a prescription pain reliever second only 10 aspirin in popularity. Darvon is the most commonly known trade name, but it is also marketed as Dolene, Pro-Gesic-65 and SK-65. No doubt the increased used of Darvon in suicides can be attributed to several factors, including the restricted availability of sleeping pills.

Many doctors, place stricter controls "the much less lethal codeine" than on propoxyphene, believing that propoxyphene is essentially harmless. In addition, Drs. McBay and Hudson say more people use Darvon because "'Medicare will pay for propoxyphene prescriptions but will not pay for aspirin." Fifteen to 20 capsules of propoxyphene many cause death--even smaller amounts are. lethal if taken with alcoholic drinks. The North Carolina doctors say that of 30 propoxyphene deaths in 1974, most have been suicidal overdoses.

Some have been accidents. This report may cause many doctors to rethink their use of Darvon and its counterparts.
