East won the opening lead with his ace and returned a low club, which declarer won with the king. Declarer drew trumps in four rounds. South discarded two small diamonds on the third and fourth trumps and East parted with two clubs and a small diamond. Declarer didn't know whether to take a heart or club finesse for his 12th trick. He decided however, to maximize his chances in the heart suit and fall back to a club finesse if in six NORTH AKQJ87 VK43 9 10 7 5 EAST 9532 ?96 Q Q10 87 AJ6 10753 498632 Q4 SOUTH 10 6 VAJ52 K842 AKJ Vulnerable: Neither Dealer: South West North East South 1 NT Pass Pass Pass 4 Pass Pass 4 6 4 Opening lead: For some time I've been DEAR DR. LAMB one of the glands under my with trouble having tongue. It swells and gets very painful. Recently, with my tongue I could feel a swelling on the floor of my mouth. I took a look and on. the right side where the gland is swollen, I noted what looked like puss at the end closest to my teeth. I tried to dislodge it with a cotton swab but it's still there. I can feel the tiny lump with my tongue. I can also see saliva coming out from the left side but none comes out of my right side. I think this little thing must have blocked the duct. Does any of this make any sense at all? DEAR READER Yes, it does. You can develop stones from the salivary glands and they can block the duct causing the gland to swell. Your description is quite good. There are other causes for swelling of these glands and some people even have swelling of the face on an allergic type basis, but a persistent swelling as you're describing can be associated with such a stone and that's probably what you've seen. Your doctor can slip it out for you without much trouble. WW ml DEAR DR. LAMB I'm the school health science coordinator for our school system. Recently several preadolescent students have become ill at school. Their symptoms include cold, clammy skin, dizziness, nausea, weakness, nervousness, irritability and rapid pulse and respiration. Because of the health history, recent activities, time of day and dietary history, I suspected possible hypoglycemia, which was later confirmed by laboratory findings in at least one student. Perhaps I'm more alert to this problem because my husband has had it for a year. However, it seems more people are developing this condition, especially young folks. I would appreciate any information you could provide. I hope to make this part of a class program on nutrition which I'm planning. DEAR READER The symptoms that you described can occur in people who have hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). These same symptoms can be caused by a number of other conditions. That's why the diagnosis often cannot be made on the basis of symptoms alone and must be confirmed with the observation of a low blood sugar level at the time the symptoms are observed. Many of the symptoms that you describe also occur with the onset of fainting. These can occur in epidemic fashion. For example, if one person faints in a group, a number of individuals may faint more or less in a sympathetic response. You also may see some of these same symptoms in anxiety, partly because' anxiety is often associated with the release of adrenaline. Adrenaline release occurs in the presence of anxiety and it also occurs because of hypoglycemia. When the blood sugar falls, adrenaline is released to stimulate the liver to release glucose into the blood. It's the adrenaline that causes a lot of these symptoms. When you realize that the release of adrenaline can be triggered by many different mechanisms, you can understand the fallacy of making a diagnosis of low blood sugar on the basis of symptoms alone. I'm sending you The Health Letter number Low Blood Sugar: Hypoglycemia, to give you more detailed information on this problem which you can use with the nutrition class that you're planning. Other readers who want this issue can send 75 cents with a long, stamped, envelope for it. Send your request to me, in care of this newspaper, P.O. Box 1551, Radio City Station, New York, .1.

LAMB I'm wondering if I have low blood sugar. I have all the symptoms. I get tired easily and I notice that I have a low spell in the middle of the morning and afternoon. Then I read an article in Time magazine a few months ago that said that it was a fad diagnosis and many people who were told they had low blood sugar really just had an emotional problem. Do you have any information on low blood sugar that would help me understand this? DEAR READER The symptoms that have frequently been ascribed to low blood sugar also occur in many other disorders, including stress and emotional disturbances. A proper diagnosis can only be made by a careful clinical evaluation. This is not the first time that the frequent diagnosis of low blood sugar has been questioned. The American Medical Association found it necessary to warn about this several years ago. The big problem is that when your blood sugar (glucose) falls it stimulates the release of adrenaline. The adrenaline stimulates your liver to release glucose into your blood to maintain your blood level. That is a natural reaction we all have. In a person who has clinically significant low blood sugar problems the amount of adrenaline released is enough to cause shaking, tremulousness, anxiety and symptoms that people ascribe to low blood sugar. However, anxiety or stress can cause you to release adrenaline also, even if your blood glucose level is normal. Again the adrenaline causes the same symptoms. So people who are anxious often do have the same symptoms that people who have low blood sugar have because both conditions cause an outpouring of adrenaline. - tor where team effort is required, but today you may not be too eager to share the spotlight or accolades.

This is usually accomplished by the use of transfer bids. However, today's hand comes from a rubber bridge game where only a minimal number of conventions were played. South became the unusual declarer needed. Accordingly. South cashed dummy's heart king and led another heart to his ace. eschewing the finesse. Then he cahsed the diamond king and pitched dummy's remaining heart. There were only four cards left in the end game and declarer needed to make all four. Before declarer routinely took the club finesse, he trumped his heart five in dummy and cashed dummy's remaining trump. East had to save the heart queen, so he parted with a small club. South no longer needed his heart jack, so he pitched it and West let go of a diamond. At trick 12 South led a club from dummy and after East played the nine, declarer unhesitatingly went up with the ace, dropping the queen. It wasn't av lucky guess. Declarer knew that East's last card was the heart queen so the club finesse couldn't possibly work. (NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN. I 7 l,f I '' NY 10019. Another condition which will cause symptoms of this sort is an excess amount of caffeine. This, too, is seen much more frequently in young people now because of the habit of drinking large amounts of cola drinks that contain caffeine, the use of coffee, chocolate as cocoa, hot chocolate or in chocolate bars. By the time a physically small person consumes a lot of colas and caffeine in these forms, he will get jittery and the body will be sensitized to adrenaline. The obvious cure in this instance is less colas, less coffee, less chocolate. I'm also sending you ine rieaitn Letter number 14-Controversial Beverages: Coffee, Tea, Colas and Chocolate, which may also be helpful in your nutrition class. (NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN.)
