tho ono over ono and, in this, n bid of ono spade forced partner Co re.bid. East passed and South bid two spades. North then Jumped to four no trump to show st0ppers In all suits. South bid hve rspadcs Most North players now responded with six spades. However, at ono table tho North player went to six no trump.
 The Play
 Look tho hand over carefully. It certainly seems as if Fast must make his king of hearts or hiS king of clubs, but there is c play which will prevent it. n
 At the table where the contract was six no trump, East opened tho deuce Of spades. The reason tho spade was, opened was because the bidding clearly indicated that North and South had the spade suit solid and there was nothing to lose by opening 70 spade. Any other opening might cost East . trick. Tho trick was won in tho dummy with tho acc of spades, West discarding a heart.
 Three rounds of spades were led, tho third round being won In North tho declarer's hand with the queen. West discarded tho five of hearts and the seven and five of clubs, hoping to mislead the declarer on the club Eituation. The king of spades was then led by the declarcr, East discarding the nine Of hearts and West the six of hearts. Dummy discarded the deuce of hearts. Tho deciarer nof led the acc of clubs--you will notice that this play deliberately sets up the king of clubs for East. Declarer now starts on the dia'- mond suit, leading tho ace. jack and seven from his own hand, tho seven spot being won In dummy with the king. East follows with the six and eightof diamonds and discards the four of hearts. West follows with three diamonds. Tho queen of diamonds Is led from dummy. West discarding the seven of hearts, declarer the four of clubs and East begins to feel the pinch, he'd rops the eight of clubs. J
 Declarer than leads the ten of diamonds from dummy, West dis- cards the, eight Of hearts and the declarer discards the nine of clubs. East is now squeezed--if he discards the king of clubs, dummy's queen will be good. His only chance is to drop the ten of hearts, but as soon as he does that, the declarer leads the queen of hearts from the dummy and oyertakes in his own hand with the ace, catching East's king. The jack of hearts wins the last trick for the declarer. ~
 Tho particular squeeze play Is known as the Vienna coup--one of the hardest squeeze plays to recognize in bridge. You will noe tice that while the decIarer's con- tract ,is only six. he does not giyc up, but used this wonderful play to make himself an extra trick.

 F It is easy to sec that Colman's perfnormance of the young hero, l,Dr Martin Arrowsmtth, has as much 10 do with the success of the picture as the brilliant story that made the book the :. best-selier' Without q single false step. never losing the personal appeal which , has made him such an eminent ng- ure on the screen, he builds Ar rowsmith up into complete char acter who will live long time in the memory of picture fans.
 Tn addition, "Arrowsmith" gives the world of m0vie-goers another opportunity to sec Helen Hayes. whose emotional powers made her | first pIcture. .'The Sin of MGdelon l Ciaudet," such q triumph. Here this great American actress has another role exactly suited for her, that Of l the little nurSe who marries pr | |Arrowsmith and stands by him In the face of disappointment and death. This picture confirms the hope that she would become one of the most appealing and brilliant heroineg in pictures. The rest of the cast matches the principal characters in briIiiance.

The Delegates office has re- ceived letter from Alaska in- quiring why politics are inject ed by some of the partisans of the Territory in discussing the appropriations made by Cong ress. An instance is given in- citing that Hawaii received Federal Highway aid while Alaska failed to receive a slice of this fund. But it was not ex- plained that several years ago Hawaii was included in the Federal aid legislation, while Alaska continued to receive her appropriations in the old way. Major Elliott, the Agri- cultural Department and vari- ous committee members of the Senate and House friendly to Alaska, went into the subject and all decided that Alaska would receive larger appropri- ations under the present sys- tenn, rather than to secure Fed eral Highway aid.
 When MT. McDuffie, Chair man of the Economy Commit ee of the House, declares that Alaska, with her small popu- lation, is not entitled to any road appropriations, it may be understood how difficult it is to induce the Democratic ma- jority in the House to agree to extend reasonable road appro- priations for Alaska. When Chairman McDuffie moved to eliminate the entire appropri- ation for 1888 the motion was defeated by only six votes.
