WHAT OTHERS SAY The following is the opinion of the newspaper represented and does not necessarily reflect the opinion of the Index-Journal. Fauci’s caution on schools is sound The latest battle between President Donald Trump and Dr. Anthony Fauci, like previous ones, boils down to ego-based conjecture versus science and fact. Fauci, an adviser to Trump and the na- tion’s top infectious disease expert, argues it would be reckless to rush children back into classrooms in the fall before doctors have a better grasp of the dangers. Trump, whose training in medicine and epidemiology is exactly zero, says it’s time to get back to class. Americans can disagree on shutdown measures, but some things aren’t debatable: Kids might be more resilient after being exposed to the virus, but they are by no means immune. A new, lethal con- tagion is spreading among kids that appears to be linked to the coronavirus. And even if kids don’t get sick from coronavirus exposure, their immersion in classrooms increases the likelihood that they could become super-carriers, spreading the disease to their teachers, bus drivers and parents. In the battle between Fauci’s voice of caution ver- Stripping my freedoms bigger threat than virus sus Trump’s call for throwing caution to the wind, t’s good to see that South Carolina shut down.” and Saluda counties have a total popula- we’ll stick with the guy who actually knows what and many other states are taking Politicians threw out the baby with the tion of about 180,000 people.

BRIDGE by Philip Alder THE ALARM DID NOT HELP SOME PLAYERS

Strange things happen from time to time at BLONDIE by Dean Young & John Marshall bridge tourna- ments. Once, during a power cut, we were forced to play by candlelight. On another occasion, David Bird, who has written more FRANK AND ERNEST by Bob Thaves bridge books than anyone HERMAN by Jim Unger else, was the declarer in today’s deal when the hotel fire alarm went off. Everyone vacated the playing room and moved into the cold, dark parking lot. Bird feared that the defense would be perfect when the game resumed, not a thought characteristic of an Englishman. Chatting with one’s partner in such circumstances just wouldn’t be cricket. North’s responsive double was for takeout, GARFIELD by Jim Davis showing a decent hand with length in the unbid suits. Bird need not have worried. After leading the diamond ace, West switched to a heart. East won with the ace and returned ... a heart! Bird ruffed, drew trumps and ran his diamonds, discarding all four of dummy’s club losers. At another table in the event, East correctly worked out that West wouldn’t lead declarer’s OFF THE MARK by Mark Parisi primary suit unless he had a singleton ace. So, after winning with the heart ace, he gave West a diamond ruff. However, then West PEANUTS by Charles M. Schulz tried to cash the heart king, with fatal conse- quences for the defense. Bill Hodgkiss found the best defense. Know- ing that he could give his partner only one diamond ruff, at trick three he cashed the club ace. Then he delivered the diamond ruff for down one. If your partner leads declarer’s main suit at trick one, either he is short or he thinks you are short -- or you need a new partner.
