jack of spades. East cagily refusing
to win either trick.
After receiving this strong de-
Tense, Schenken decided to play the
hand for a 600 set and try to set
club trick, so he next led his five
of clubs
The eight from dummy forced
East's ace. East returned the ten
of diamonds, Schenken winning the
trick with the ace. Mr.. Schenken
then returned the six of clubs,
which West won with the queen.
Vests next play was the queen
of diamonds. Schenken refused to
win the trick, playing the seven of
diamonds. He wanted to give his
opponents an opportunity to make
a mistake and now, unfortunately
for West, West became too greedy
he wanted to set his diamonds suit
and retain the king Of clubs for a
re-entry.
West played the jack Of dia-
monds, which was mis- ruination-
the ten Of clubs was discarded
from dummy and Schenken won
the trick with the king of diamonds.
He then led his five of spades,
playing a small spade from dummy
and East was forced to win the trick
with the ace.
All that East could do is to return
a heart--if he returns a small one,
Schenken viii win it in the dummy
with the jack, while If he returns
the king. Sehenken will go up with
the ace and then lead a small heart
TO dummy's jack.
The king and ten Of spades In
dummy are both good.
And so Schenken, who at one
time during the play Of the hand,
would have been almost willing TO
settle for a set of 600, by giving his
opponents an opportunity to make a
mistake. was successful in making
his contract Of three to trump
doubled.
AS his side was vulnerable, it was
indeed a terrific swing on one hand.

he ever had "a pair Of pajamas

new DRIVE ON
DALE STARTED
BY RIVER SUIT
State Move Seen as Effort
to Force Huge Sewer
Plant on MunCie.

BIZ Tines Special
MUNCIE. Ind. May "a new
drive against the administration Of
Mayor George r. Dale Of Muncie
was opened Friday.
The latest activity against the
mayor who has driven the corrupt
elements from the city and saved
thousands OF dollars TO taxpayers by
smashing the paving trust came in
the form Of information that a
mandate suit would be fled by the
state TO halt pollution Of White
river"
Dale's supporters see in the move
an attempt TO force through the
plan for an intercepting sewer
system and disposal plant which
Dale has fought consistently and
successfully since he took Office.
The mayor has stated on several
occasions that he realizes the city's
needs for a more up-to-date system,
but declares that he will not pile
such an excessive burden on tax
payers at this time, as the action
would mean that scores OF property
owners could not pay the heavy as
sessments.
Cost Would BE Huge
A survey more than a year ago by
the city engineer resulted in a re-
port that the project would cost at
least 100000. and one prominent
Muncie contractor, with years OF ex-
perience in the business, asserts that
the cost would be far greater.
Experience IN other cities has
shown, say municipal officials, that
the city should own its waterworkS
system before it launches any such
plan as that contemplated by coun-
Gil members, who have fought Dale
in an effort to put over the sewer
age system here.
Purchase of the Muncie water
works plant would mean an outlay
OF three-quarters OF a million or
more, officials declare.
Hundreds OF property owners al
ready are carrying assessments for
sewers, paving, curbing and gutter
far in excess of the value of their
lots" asserted Lester Holloway, city
controller. today. They were as
sessed almost into bankruptcy by
the paving grabs which were showed
through during the John Hampton
administration.
Burden Too Great
TO ask the taxpayer to shoulder
the huge burden Of a new sewerage
system would be almost criminal at
this time"
One Muncie daily paper has been
carrying queries as to whether resi-
dents would not be willing to pay
a few cents more" taxes for the new
plant.
Dale's supporters declare that this
is an attempt to dupe the people
into the belief that the cost to them
would be negligible if the plant were

CHICKENS GET OWNER
OF GROCERY IN BAD
Hold Up His Application for Sign;
He Must Dust Hens.

Chickens can get a man IN bad
in more ways than one.
It occurred to Lipot Frankovitz,
grocer at Twenty-eighth and Cap
itol avenue. that no business man
can succeed properly without an
electric sign over his store. once
sold on the idea he applied for a
permit to carry out his desire, but
found the park board opposed.
It seems that a few weeks ago
Frankovitz was ordered by the
board to clear chickens from the
front Of his store since, it was con-
tended. they we're outside the prop
erty line.
Until Frankovitz clears his chick
ems from the front Of the store he
will have no electric sign or any
other kind Of sign atop his modest
place Of business.

HOWARD SCHENKEN, with his

Masters gold trophy, emblematic of
the countrys most coveted bridge
title-the National Masters Pair
championship.
He says that the following hand
proved quite interesting. as there
was a time during the play that he
was willing to take a 500 set.
BY quick thinking, however. he
was able to take advantage Of a
mistake by one of his opponents
and thereby make his contract.

ARCHITECTS HAIL
START OF REVIVAL
$572,738,000 Projects Al
ready Financed and Being
Planned.

Belief that the beginning of a period
of recovery in the building industry
of the country has been reached is
held by editors of the American Archi-
tect on the basis of survey OF
projects now planned and financed.
Based on direct individual reports
from 1885 representative architects
and other informed sources, the sur
vey shows that building and mod
ernization projects now in the plan
ming stage and already financed amount
to S572. .738. 600
Contemplated constEuetion. based on
business conditions in each State,
reaches an additional figure of 81 1,181,-
068,000, the magazine reports.
Construction Speeded.
Of the total of the two classifica-
tions, those already planned and those
contemplated, it is reported that $780,
5000 is in the new building projects
already financed and under planning
for immediate construction.
In the actual new building projects
there are l,145 dwellings costing below
$4,000, making a total estimated cost
of S1O,171 500. and 2O3 dwellings cost
ing from $4,000 and up, costing a
total of $8.l04,000.
OF apartment buildings and hotels
there are 1913, representing a cost CT
s18,155,5OO, and "a hotels costing
S4490,000.
In the contemplated construction
listed in the survey data there are
3,429 dwellings having an individual
cost below 5000 which have a total
estimated cost of $26, 700, and 5S2
dwellings of more expensive classical
ton having total cost of 21,677,5 500.
Three Factors Listed.
There are 573 contemplated apart
ments and apartment hotels that will
cost S136,150,000 and 1870 hotels that
will cost S43 900.
The survey and forecast by Ameri-
can Architect lists three factors which
are believed to be serving to stimulate
recovery of building. They are:
Normal requirements. which have
not been satisfied for several years, will
call for considerable volume of prod
ucts to bring the buildings Of the coun-
try back to proper condition.
available Federal funds promise to
turn vast sums of money for the pur-
chase of building materials
THE people know that from an eco
nomical point of view now, when costs
of labor and prices of building prod
ucts are unusually low. is good time
to build or modernize."

The residence of Richard c. Hub
tersection of Shadow road, in kenWood,
Nd, Is an interesting study Of modern
home that reveals the architectural In
fluence of the early American manner.
There is seen in this house appealing
effect of the low, somewhat rambling
and broken roof line of dwelling that
is set snugly against the ground. 1t is
given an added picturesque feeling, due
to its location on a spacious and wood
ed lot, showing broad expanse OF
sloping lawn in front of the building.
Roof Is Of Tile.
The house is a combination of stone,
white painted brick and clapboard, and
has a roof of tile of the type employed
in the restoration of historic buildings
at Williamsburg. Va, which gives the
effect of old, moSs-green, wood shingles
of the early American homes.
The white painted brickwork serves
to tighten the aspect of the house and
to provide contrast against the gray and
light brown tones Of the stone and the
green of the lawns and trees.
An ornamental wrought-iron porch,
with copper roof. lends a distinctive
touch to the entrance.
Hearth of Marble.
The main entrance leads into spa
cious hall, from which a stairway OF
early American style carries to the
second floor.
Through a deep arch at the left OF
the entrance hall and down two steps
is a large living room. in one end OF

DECLARED BETTER
Survey of Leading Trade
Areas Is Made by Statis-

Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, October A survey
which indicates improvement in the
general credit and collection outlook in
leading trading areas in this country
has been published by the Standard
Statistics Co. of New York Conclusions
regarding certain Of the major areas
follow:
ATLANTA Though conditions are
highly irregular throughout the area,
overdue accounts in mill towns and
favored farm sections may be cleared up
with comparatively good success in the
next three months.
Decentralization in september
and October should be more satisfactory
United States.
CHICAGO. - September collections
should record substantial improvement
over the poor Summer showing but
broad widening of credit lines does not
yet appear to be good business policy.
CLEVELAND.-With indications that
purchasing power will expand slowly,
except in a few sections, close supervi-
sion of accounts will be necessary to
avoid excessive losses.
DALLAS, FORT WORTH-With the
commencement of the heavy cattle
movement, and the marketing of the
cotton crop, collection will be accelerated
rapidly.
DETROIT.-Extra seasonal gains in
automobile manufacture are expected
in the late Fall. but until trade reports
give the cue, credit managers should
exercise unusual caution in extending
new credits
INDIANAPOLIS. - Collections this
Summer have been above average COM
pared with other Midwest areas, and
should record definite improvement this
Autumn.
KANSAS CITY.-Credit conditions
should improve moderately from now on,
though more slowly than in the re-
mainder of the country.
MINNEAPOLIS, ST. PAUL.-Credit
managers should count on materially
better collections in agricultural and re-
tail lines, but must continue to scrutinize
industrial accounts in the heavier indus
tries with unremitting care.
NEW YORK.-Payments on book
credits have been exceptionally prompt
in cities throughout the depression, and
henceforward collections may be ex-
pected to parallel any quickening in
general business activity.
PHILADELPHIA. - Improvement in
collections probably will lag slightly be-
hind the national average.
RICHMOND-Using a reasonable
amount of discression, in opening lines,
credit managers should be able to Sc
cure better ratio Of collections to out
standing receivables than last year.
SAN FRANCISCO-Credits in the
Central and Southern agricultural re-
gions should be carefully watched.
ST. LOUIS.-Credit stringency will
continue in the Southern Illinois and
Missouri mining districts.
