Ann says make a will - and spare fam.ily members fights over possessions
Ann
Landers
J9Y7, Lus Mldet flma
!riyftchUJt uxl Crealor•
!iyftdK~

Dear Ann Landers: I just read
the lener from "Wisconsin Reader, "
the poor soul who satd her parents
have not wrinen a will. With 10 children in the family. she felt this was a
powder keg ready to blow up. I
agree wholeheanedly.
When onv wtdowed mother suffered a severe heaot attack in 1982,
her lawyer wisely advised her to
make an itcmoz.ed list of all her per·
sonal possessions. oncluding furnoturc and jewelry. Mother acted on
hos sugge;llon and decided that her
four daughters should take turns
~ 1 g nmg up for one item at a time,
stanmg with the eldest. It took a
couple of years to get through the
entire lost soncc we live 300 miles
apart and dod 11 through the mail .
When Mother died in 1986, after
a long bank woth cancer, each of u'
had chose n ex actly the items wr
wanted and " ere happy with out
chuocc;. There were no hard feelings
because we were all given an equal
npportu nlly to ask for what we
wanted . Mv sosters and I are thankfu l thai we had such a canng and
"' ""mother. ·· Mmot. N.D.
Dear Minot: You were indeed
lortunate . Meanwhile, the responses
to that k ucr were overwhelming.
Apparently. it os a subject lhal a
greao many people care about. Keep
rcadmg for more:
Dear Ann Landers: I'm writing
about "Wisconsin Reader, " whose
parents told their I 0 children to
write their names on any items they
wanted after the parents died. "Wisconsin " was afraid that this was a
·•rime bomb" in the making. I dis:lg ree.

I rook photographs of all the
olems of value I own, such as a

grandfather clock, my good jewelry
and some collectible items that were
rea l treasures. The photos were
passed around lo my children and
the ir spouses. If any of them were
interested in an item, they were to
write lheor name on the back of the
photograph. If more than one person
se lec ted the same item , I circled the
name of the indi viduijl I wanted 10
ha,·c it , based on how many items
that person had asked for and what

else he or she was getting.
I did Ibis because I love my family and wanted to avoid the possibility of squabbles over material
things Why should anyone fight
over someone else's belongings?
Would it he better to sell it all at auction' I don 't lhink so.
The photographs I took are with
my will, so there will be no questions. I lhink the parents of "Wis-

consin Reader" OR trying to prevent
problems by asking the kids what
they want. In my opinion, "Wisconsin" is the one creating the trouble. - A Nebrukan in Norfolk
Dear Norfolk: Thanks for your
input. Here's another on the subject:
Dear ADa L&amp;llden: I believe I
have a fair solution to the problem of
how to leave your belongings to
your children. My son-in-law and

his brother did Ibis when their father
passed on, and both boys 5CCDI satisfied .
The boys met in their father's
horne and drew straws. 11le longer
straw had fust choice of what item
he wanltd, and the other boy made
the next choice and so on.
I would, however, suggest thai
children (or parents) decide beforehand to consider ceotain items as

single units. For example, all the you and all the others who wrote.
bedroom furniture would be one: You signed yourself "Not Ready 10
item, likewise the antique desk and Go Yet." Unfortunately, in a good
malehing chair, the good set of china many instances, you ··go" whether
and other matching pieces, lO avoid you are ready or not.
having the selection process take
forever. I plan to do this with my Said quc:stioos to ADa Landen,

FAIRFAX, Ya. (AP) - Feotility
researchers said today thai they have
come up with a way to sort spenn
that may allow couples 10 have
babies of the seK they choose.
Doctors at the Genetics &amp; IVF
Institute said spenn cells to be used
in artificial insemination can be soot·
ed by the amount of DNA they conlain ..
The only difference between
male-producing Y chromosome
spenn and female-producing X
chromosome spenn is that spenn
carrying a Y chromosome have
about 2.8 percent less genetic male·
rial.
Using
a DNA detector.
researchers were able to sift spenn
to produce samples in which 85 percent of the ·cells had an X chromosome, the institute's doctors said in a
statement. If they targeted Y-bearing
sperm. the result was a sperm sample in which 65 percent of the cells
contained a Y chromosome.
The research is published in the
journal Human Reproduction .
In data reported from the institute's ongoing trials, 29 pregnancies
have been initiated after separation ·
for the X-bearing sperm. So far, nine
patients have given birth to II
healthv baby girls, the institute said.
A study of couples wanting boys
produced results consistent with
what the spenn sooting would predict, lead researcher Dr. Edward
· Fugger said. Exact resuhs were not
released.
Sex selection techniques have
been marketed and promoted before.
But Dr. Alan DeCherney of the University of California at Los Angeles
told The New York Times: " Nothing
worked until now."

:•

Dr. Burry Zirkin of Johns Hopkins University said he !till was not
convinced about the safety of the
method, which . involves staining
spenn cells' DNA with a fluorescent
dye and shining laser light on the
spenn. DeChemey also cautioned
about the ethical implications of tinkering with spenn.
When it comes to Sl'X selection,
he' said. "most peop)e feel this is
tampering with nature."

33 On the ..,.,..

By Phillip Alder
How strong does a suit need to be
for you to suggest it as a possible
trump suit'' I well remember a deal in
whtch I had the 5-4·3·2 of spades. I
opened one club. partner responded
one hean. and I rebid one no-lrump.
tn pnnciple denymg Four spades.
Panner. Wtth A-K·Q·J or spades.
rmsed 10 six no-trump. "knowing"
we couldn't have a spade fit Well . ._,
trumps were 3-2, six spades was laydown, and six no-trump was ·· in the·
ory. at least -- no play. So don't be
nervous about bidding a weak sutt if
it could be the right denomination.
On this deal. Nonh did well to use
Stayman to uncover the heart fit
Many players would just jump to
three no-trump. reaching a contmct
that should be defeated. Still. South
has lo back up North 's excellent bidding decision with good card-play.
What would you do after Wesl leads
the diamond jack?
Check your losers. Assuming a 3·
2 trump split, you can see three: two
hearts and one d1amond. So, you
mustn't lose a black-suit trick. Alternatively. you stan with seven top
tncks: two spades. one heart. lwo diamonds and two cluhs So. you need
to score three more trump tricks.
After winnong trick one. duck a
trump. Win the return. cash-the heart
ace. and play on cmssruff ltnes.
Trump two spades m the dummy and
two clubs tn your hand It doesn't
matter if East overruffs. because you
were counting that loser anyway. You
will concede jusllwo !rumps and one
dmmond
If you carelessly stan with the ace
and another trump, East will dmw a
third round, leaving you a trick short.
