GIRL ABOUT
TOWN
BY ATARILYN'


Speaking Of bridge etiquet, which
we weren't, but let's-AIrs. Albert
Snyder's sister, Mrs. Charles Farrell,
New jersey, got into an expensive
discussion the other Gay over the
bridge table. She was playing in
meticulous New York foursone when
the question came up as to the lat
est rule about completing the cut.
We play here that the dealer COM
pletes the cut, but they wanted
authority. To settle the discussion
one Of the women who had been a
pupil Of Mr.. Works went to the
telephone to ask his advice.
Said she: Good afternoon, Mr..
Work, how are your"
Very well, thank you; and you?"
he returned, courteously.
I'VE want to know who COM
pletes the cut, Mr.. Work"
"The cutter" said Mr.. Work.
That being the extent of the con-
versation the woman was COM
pletely overcome when she received
shortly afterward a bill of SIS for
expert advice. Highly irate, she
fastened to consult her lawyer who
assured her that she must pay the
bill and sent her another bill for
S25 for legal consultation. That
made it $50 question And I ask
you, is any question in the world
worth $50. Especially and ironically
when both Foster and LEM say that
the dealer should complete the cut!
And the moral of that is, said the
Duchess, dunt esk! just pay a lot
OF money and take your choice.
Two things I'm hot and bothered
about. Is the Earl of Northesk
Peggy Hopkins Joyce sixth or
seventh matrimonial experiment?
And did Morton Hoyt jump from the
liner Rochaubeau for the love of
Elsie Egengren, Tallulah Bankhead,
or Mike?
Peggy is to follow the lovely
Jessica Brown of the Follies. as the
future Countess Of Northesk. Just
at present they are romping around
on the sands at Deauville, where
they recently announced their en-
gagement. Pat Hall Boone had
luncheon with the fair Peggy several
years ago at Laurel Hall, the old
Fletcher place, when Louisa Fletcher
lived there She told me that
Peggy's amount Of come-hither was
enormous. Age has not withered
her nor custom stalled her infinite
variety-at least, in the matter of
husbands.
Morton Hoyt the young man who
jumped so spectacularly from the
deck Of the Rochambeau into the
Atlantic ocean and was hauled back
on board a little later. wrote the
most curious letter to the magazine
Time" He didn't resent at all the
account of his reported attempt to
commit suicide, but he got deeply
agitated because the report stated
that Tallulah Bankhead is red
headed and because his wife was
called Jeanne instead of Eugenia!
But the question remains, why in the |
name of common sense did he jump |
Perhaps that is the |
common sense.

The new reallocation plan OF the Fed

The article appeals for a square

as the process has been, M. A. Leese'

content to ride along believing he won!d
ultimately get square deal, especially
IN view of the fact that but two stations
operate here after pm, and his STA
ton alone caters entirely to local civic
and music community interests.
City Club Took Hand.
"The City Club took hand in the
matter as one Of the civic broadcasters

ing a smoklng-out process the COM
mission agreed to the fact that Wash

because LeeSe wanted to ride along
rather than haraSs the commission.
Now the commission proposes to do
some more changing in washington
and can pass the buck to Congress do
ing it. It is proposed to put WMAL
I'D to ATS meters Chats f1ne, but here
is the Joker and cut it from 500 to

That comes very close to putting the
