CONTRACT EXPERTS
HAVE MISGIVIMCS
over new SYSTEM
Afraid Il Will Hurt Growth Of
Game; Some Laud Grand
Slam Bonus

New York, Nov. 1.-(R)-Contract
experts said they had many misgiv-
ings as the new code of rules went
into effect Tuesday.
Several stressed the lack of SIM
plicity in scoring no trump tricks
below the line and doubled under
tricks.
Critcising in particular the vary
ing count of no trump tricks over
book, 80 for the odd-numbered tricks
and. 40 for the even numbered, Will
lard s. Karn suggested that suit
valuations be revised forthwith to
30 for no trump, Is for majors and
20 for minors, with count Of 80 for
game.
Ely Culbertson warned that no card
game with complicated count could
endure.
P. Hal Sims said it was great mis-
take to change calculations while the
number Of devotees of the game still
was rapidly increasing. He expressed
fear that many players would adhere
to the scoring methods they knew.
Among the few bridge-masters de-
Tending the increased bonus for grand
slams were Sheppard Barclay and
Gratz M. Scott. Barclay regards the
new slam premium as like a forward
pass in football; it gives the one
behind a chance to get ahead quick
ly. Scott said that the heavy bonus
would add zest to the game.
The bonus found little favor with
most tournament players. gilbert
son predicted malignant rush of
grand slam bidding by players in
general with the result that they
would lose many a rubber they could
win by combining themselves to little
slams. He predicted that the grand
slam bonus would be barred from
tournament play.
Sidney S. LEM said he was dis
appointed that penalties for un-
doubled not vulnerable undertricks
were not increased to deter psychic
bidding. but he things the new code
will be accepted quickly by the
public

Community Players
Give Entertainment

About 200 youngsters and grown
ups celebrated Halloween by attend
ing the entertainment presented Mon
day evening at the city auditorium
under the auspices of the Commun-
ity Players.
The program opened with parade
OF witches, impersonated by Jean
Baker, Ann Tillotson. Adeline Dale,
Jean Larson, Rosemary Selvig, Bar
bara Baker, Ruth Sandin, Ann Louise
Selvig, Betty Jacobson and Dorothy
Dale.
Sound effects which occurred at
the wrong time made a humorous
background for ghost story told by
Anthony Faber This was followed
BY a telephone skit which received
the appreciation and sympathy of the
entire audience. It had to do with a
young mans difficulty in getting the
right number.
Mrs. Carl B. Nelson and Miss Mar
ian Sandin presented a Spanish song
and dance number in professional
manner. Two dramatic Halloween
readings, 1.-THE Goblins'll Git Yea if
You Don't Watch Out" and THE
Golden Arm" were given by Mrs.
Ralph Truman.
A Halloween pantomime, with Miss
Clarice Belk as the reader, completed
the program.
Afterwards there was spooky tour
of the lower regions of the auditor
ium and the World War Memorial
building during which the youngsters
were introduced to grotesque and
sinister objects
This was the first attempt of the
Community Players to provide en-
tertainment on community scale,
and the experiment, in the opinion
OF those attending, merits repetition.

Chapel burst into flames in

The Japanese reinforcements held
their lines. The move was taken
to indicate they intended to drive
the Chinese back and eliminate the
increasing danger to the interna-
tional settlement. Shells landed in
foreign areas all day.
The settlement and the French
concession were calm. Chinese
feared looting. They feared the
Chinese armies were near the end
of their resistance, but might try
to rush the settlement.
The roar of field guns just outside
the foreign areas was deafening,

The drive spread between Shang-
