The Waterbury Democrat., 1932-09-27
By PAUL HARRISON NEA Service Writer

New York.-Sidney Biddell is a bookish sort of person. From the time when the truancy offlcer used to yank him out of the public library at Newport, Vt, and hustle him back to school, Biddell just hasn't Been able to get enough of books.
 He collected first editions. He worked for a publishing house. Finally he became publisher himself, and now is selling new novels at the rate of 100000 a month. But he isn't content with topping previous totals. He thinks

Ngl[lREE q
 Ao RRZDGE ASf "' z" EXPERTS PLAY IT A

, The Play East's opening lead was the jack of diamonds, which was won in dummy with the ace. Most players would now make the mis- take of immediately drawing out the trump, but Mir Burnstine could see that there was possi- bility of his opponents getting in twice. Of course if the spades were to drop, he would have no difficulty in going game, but if the spades did not drop, he must play the hand so that the second time the opponents were in the lead it is to his advantage.
 He, therefore, immediately re- turned a small heart from dum- my, playing the jack and knock ing out East's ace. East returned the ten of diamonds, which was won in dummy with the king.
 A small trump was led and won by MT Burnstine with the king. He then returned another trump to dummys ace. The next play was to ruff dummy's last dia- mond. Mir Burnstine then led a small heart, winning in dummy with the king.
 Two more rounds of hearts were taken upon which the de- clarer discarded two clubs, and If East were now to trump the last heart, he would be forced to lead either his ace of clubs or, to lead diamond, which can be ruffed in one hand and a stuff taken in the other. If he had refused to trump, MT Burnstine would have returned a trump from dummy, throwing East in the lead and East would now be in the same |predicament.
 You will notice that if the de- clarer had led trump before hearts the elimination and throw in play would have been killed, as East wuold have had heart for an exit card.

hosts at a dinner this evening
at the embassy, entertaining in
honor of the United States
Ambassador to Japan and Mrs.
Joseph C. Grew.
Mr.. Grew, whose appoint

lowed closely upon his return
from Istanbul, where he served
as Ambassador to Turkey, will
leave shortly for San Francisco,

they plan to sail on May 20 for
Japan.
The news that Ambassador

they have made a number OF
warm friends, not only for
themselves but for their country.

Just how far the present vogue for
