IMPORTANT DISCOVERY

UBC man

strontium 90 poisoning

VANCOUVER (--A University of British Columbia physiolo-
ist said Monday he has developed a scheme for counteracting |
strontium 90 poisoning caused by nuclear explosions.

‘ Dr, Carl F. Cramer, assistant:
professor in physiology, said in:
an interview he has discovered
that a simple adjustment of the:
phosphorous content of a vic-!
tim’s dict will cause the stron-,
tium_ 90 to be passed harmlessly;
through the body.

made while working under Dr.

important.”

Dr. Cramer said if the pres-
‘ence of strontium 90 poisoning

of entering the system, a high
‘dose of phosphorous compound |
i will absorb it before it can be'

This fast treatment could re- |

players,

This is questionable self-com-
pliment at best. There is no
disgrace in being bluffed now
and then. Jn fact, if you always
come into the bidding when:an
opponent puts in a pre-empt or
makes what you.suspect to be a
psychic, you are going to be
murdered a good percentage of
the time.

When you right hand oppon-
ent makes what might be a
phony bld and you have a good
hand but no reasonably safe call,
it is surprising how often a
prompt pass will work to your
side’s advantage, If the bid isa
psychic, don't forget that the
tricky one's partner has no way
of knowing it. He is taking it
at face value and will bid his
own cards accordingly. Often
the enemy will land in plenty of
trouble--without any prodding
from you,

It boils down to this. Do you
| want to be a brave player or a
; Winning pliyer? In many situa-
{tions you cannot be both. ’
