West a heart, which South takes the ten. If South makes the error of trying to establish his longest suit, diamonds, he down. When East wins the first diamond lead, he returns @ ' |heart - which West, of course, refuses to win. Declarer then finds himself faced with an im- possible task. The proper suit to attack is spades. South starts with seven tricks and has an eight readily available in hearts, He ean make a ninth trick more easily by taking two fin- esses in spades (where the K-Q are missing) than by attacking diamonds (where the K-Q-10 are missing). The odds are about 3 to 1 that East was dealt at least one spade honor. The ehance of finding the missing diamond honors favorably divided is less than even. Hence, the line af play more likely to succeed lies in attack- ing spades. Declarer enters dummy at trick two with a club MY CORNE ACHE THAT'S USUALLY A SIGN OF RAINS GOOP LAND, I PLUMB Fo!

W. We'll have to start with the endometrium, That is the inner lining of the uterus, and a very special type of tissue. In re- sponse to the cyclic variation in female hormones, the endome- trium sloughs off, then a new lining is created, ready for a pregnancy if one occurs. The menstrual flow represents the process of the endometrium '}being discarded. In some women, some of this tissue manages to get through ||the Fallopian tubes and become} implanted on the outside of the uterus instead of the inside, However, it is still the same kind of tissue, and still responds to the monthly cycle of hor- mone changes, attempting to respond by sloughing off, but unable to.sucseed because of its location on the wrong side of the , 'uterus, This is endometriosis. Details Given -. By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, MD Dear Dr, Molner: Would you} The chief symptom is in- creasingly painful menstrual cy- cles, usually in women past the age of 35, The symptoms disap- pear after menopause, because7 the hormone cycle ceased then. |Special hormone therapy is the usual treatment. Removal of the ovaries, thus creating a 'surgical meno- pause," and_putting an end to jthe rise and fall of hormone lactivity, also will end endome- |triosis, but this is a means to |be avoided if at all possible. If a woman is close to menopause jage, then there is less objection |to the surgery. Occasionally the implants of endometrial tissue are so exten- sive that surgery is necessary to remove them, But usually hormone therapy js sufficient. | Mote to.Mrs. C. 8': Cooley's janemia is also known as Medi- jterranean anemia. lt appears | primarily in southern Europe. 12:48 PLM, li--Racing Forum $4----Guiding Light 1:00 PLM. 1!--Yheatre 7--Ben Casey é@--Luncheon Date 4--Meet the Alliere- Movie S-Mike Dougie show ie PLM.
