TIME winter radio bridge season
Il opened officially with the
broadcasting Tuesday afternoon of
the first game in Milton C. Work S
annual bridge by radio series, heard
locally through station WFBM.
Bridge listeners will find this
series even more interesting than
those which have gone before, on
account of a new scheme of MIR.
Works by which every player who
follows these games can handicap
himself as a first, second, third or
fourth class player.
The experts who participated in
the bridge game we're:
Mrs. H T. Westervelt, New Haven.
Conn, Dealer, (South), holding:
Spades, *, 2: hearts, @. 5, 2; dis-
mondS, K, 10, 3. 2; clubs, @, 8, 8, 2.

The only bid of the auction was
one no trump by Mrs. WeSson,
West, call amply justified by her
total of is, based on the popular
1921 no trump count which re-
ouires three suits stopped and
a count Of II for an original no
trump bid by first or second hand.
Wyman. North. opened the play
by leading the Jack of Hearts, the
correct no trump lead from a. suit
headed J-10-9 or J-l0-8. Declarer
played Dummy's trey; South played
the 5, and Deelarer won with the
ace.
Declarer saw the going would be
difficult. but proceeded to try to
establish the only eight-card suit
in her combined hands, by leading
her 4 Of spades.

NEW YORK, NOV. 26s--Trou-
BILE with American writers, in
the opinion of Sinclair Lewis,
is they do not take their work
seriously.
The first American writer to
receive Nobel prize for litera-
ture told the guests at a din
ner of the P. E. ". Club that
"such artists as John Gals
worthy and Roman ROLAND
regard their efforts with a
great deal Of seriousness. But
American writer's do not"
"There are only five things
Americans regard with any de-
gree of seriousness" he said.
"They are business, politics,
golf, baseball and football"

Save s FROM FIRE
Four Women, Child Crawl
Down Ladders.

Four women and child crawled
down fire department ladders to
safety Tuesday night when
flames partially destroyed the
College Manor apartments, 1850
College avenue. Damage to the
building was $4,000.
The fire, originating in the base
ment, gained such headway that
halls and apartments in the upper
stories were so filled with smoke as
to prevent occupants escape.
Those rescued were: Mrs. A. K.
Merz,, critically i'll of pneumonia;
her nurse, Mrs. James Goodrich,
Mrs. Walter J. Six, Mrs. George
Regadanz and the latter's daughter
Jean, 4.

led the trey. bringing out South's
king. Declared played the g.
thus creating a fourth-round entry
in Dummy, and North dropped
the 10.
COUIH returned her partners
~ hearts, leading the queen. De-
clarer ducked with the 6; North
played the 4; Dummy the 8. South
continued hearts with the deuce;
Declarer won with the king; North
played the Z, thus showing his part
ner that he had the remaining
hearts, as his lead must have been
from J-1O-9; and Dummy discarded
the trey of clubs.
To trick six Declarer led the
queen of spades; North followed
with the jack; Dummy with the s,
and South discarded the deuce OF
clubs.
Declarer continued with the 5 of
spades, overtaking with Dummy'S
7. North discarded the 6 of clubs
and South the deuce of diamonds,
keeping both her high diamond and
her high club guarded.
Dummy led the 5 of diamonds to
trick eight; South played the trey;
DecIarer the ace, and North rose to
the occasion by making a brilliant
"exit" play of the queen OF dia-
moncs..
He knew that if Declarer held the
king of diamonds, his queen would
be lost anyhow. If he did hold up
the queen. and his partner held the
king-l0, she would not be able to
overtake his queen, because she
would have to keep her king over
Dummy's jack.
So. while North might win the
second diamond trick by holding
his queen, and would be able to
make his two good hearts and his
ace of clubs, he would have a club
left for the thirteenth trick which
he could reasonably expect would
be won by Declarer, giving her the
odd trick and contract.
BY playing the queen Of diamonds.

did hold the king-10, two diamond
tricks might be made in addition to
the sure tricks that North held, thus
setting the contract. And even If
South did not hold the king-10 of
diamonds, North figured that trick
might be gained if the club lead
came to him.
h EVERYTHING worked out as
H Wyman hoped. When he
dropped the queen of diamonds,
Declarer thought it probable that
he had played from king-queen and
still held the king. She reasoned
that to continue diamonds would
give North the trick, and that he
then could make his two good
hearts, but that eventually he would
have to lead clubs Up TO her, Civ
ing her the king of clubs and her
contract, as she already had six
tricks.
To trick nine, therefore, Declarer
led the 6 of diamonds; North played
the 8; Dummy the jack, and South
the king, understanding perfectly
that her partners exit play Of the
diamond queen on the preceding
trick indicated that he held the
ace of clubs as entry to his two
good hearts. So South took her
good diamond 10 on the next trick,
giving her partner a discard Of his
losing 10 Of clubs. At trick eleven
South led the 8 of clubs which
North won with the ace. North
then faced his two good hearts
for the last two tricks, defeating
Mrs. wesson's perfectly sound one
no trump by one trick. AdversdrieS
scored so in their honor column for
defeating the contract; Deelarer and

Reservation to Oath of

Before Courts.
By BOYD LEWIS
United Press STAFF Correspondent

NEW HAVEN. Conn, Jan. TO-
A big studious-appearing man of 33
appeared at a United States Gus
toms office on the Canadian border
about twenty years ago and applied
for admission TO the United States
Where r you going?" asked an
official.
New Haven, Conn" the applicant
replied.
Going TO work."
yves"
Got a job?'
Yes.
Wei. that's TOO bad" said the
llfcial, but youU have to go back.
Your entry would be a violation OF

But they're going to be aW-
fully disappointed down there. They
expect me-" persisted the Canadian
What were you going to do?"

sity.7
Awfully Disappointed
oh, I thought you said you were
gCng 10 work. Go aheadl'
That was the prelude 20 Profes-
sor MacIntosh'S tw~enty-year Strug-
gle to become an American citi-
zen.
For several years the professors
reported efforts to obtain natural-
cation met with defeat because the
record of his entry had been lost
and-as far as federal authorities
we're concerned-MacIntoSh vas
not In the United States.
Finally during the course OF his
examination by an agent of the nat
uralization court, Macintosh said he
could not subscribe to the oath of
allegiance without reservation. An
oath to bear arms in any or all wars
OF United States, he explained,
would be opposed to the will Of
God" to which he owed first al
legiance.
Report UnfavOrable
The professor came before Judge
Warren B. Burrows of New London,
on an unfavorable report by n
agent.
Judge Burrows filed his final de-
cree Thursday refusing the appli-
cation because the petitioner lis not
attached to the principles of the
Constitution of the United States
Filing of this decree cleared the
way for an appeal to the United
States circuit court of appeals at
New York. If this court upholds
the lower court, Macintosh will ap-
peal to the supreme court OF the
United States, for the theologlan has
become convinced that his case now
is q cause.
John w. Davis. once candidate for
President on the Democratic ticket,
will plead the case before the high
court.
