Interesting Bridge Hands
By E. V. SHEPARD

Freak suits often obligate i'm
mediate overcalls Of no trumps
at the right. If unable to save
game against a shift to a suit
by the partner of the no trump
bidder, a freak suit may obl-
gate a game bid over the no
trump, provided your own part
ner is not expected to afford
you anything beyond normal
support to yield you game.
Often it would be fine to de"
feat a no trump at your right,
by leading a long suit, but the
player at your left probably
will shift the no trump. II
you allow third hand to men,
ton his best suit, in all proba-
bility you will be unable to out
bid your opponents. If you
bid game over the adverse no
trump, before third hand names
a suit, probably you will play
the hand at small loss or with
no loss.
Bid both hands shown below,
directly over no trumps at your
right. Call 4-Spades on the
first hand. Bid 5-Diamonds on
the second hand.

of food, although their exact

What used to be q dreaded

Scurvy, is now rather unfre-

caused by lack Of vitamins and
is readily prevented by taking
lemon or orange Juice, which
contains VitaminS B and c,

And now two French physi-

their bodies are deficient In
Vitamins B and D, for lack OF

Whether this is true or not, I
am not prepared to say. It does
show, nevertheless, the ramificar
tions in research that study OF
the vitamins may take.
The best plan, for everyone,
Of course, is to include the four
principal vitamins in his diet
daily. Vitamin A one gets in
butter fat; B in yeast; c in fresh
orange Juice; D in cod liver oil.
I have added below q list OF
other foods that are sources Of
vitamin supply. When marked
by one K it means the food
contains the vitamin noted;
when designated by a double K
the source is good; when by a
triple K it Is excellent. This is
an authoritative list prepared by
Drs. Sherman and Smith in
THE Vitam ns," 1922, the
Chemical Catalogue Company.
Vitamin D is not noted, because
it is found only in small guam
titles in egg yolk, fresh raw car
rots and alfalfa, but in con"
siderable amounts in cod liver
oil.

wasn't writing much in those days,
although since then the papers seem to
like my stuff and pay me for making
wise cracks, which doesn't make me a
bit sore.
For recreation used to keep some
horses and goats on the lot back Of
the studio, and 1 spent most of my
time enjoying the companionship Of
dumb but honest animals. They
couldn't laugh at me. Which was en-
couraging!
From Goldwyn's went to work for
Hal Roach and made series Of 2-reel
comedies there. It's serious business
this making people laugh!
I remember when I was In the Fol-
lies. All 1 did was my rope act, and
I didn't say nothing. But one evening
the manager asked me to make an an
nouncement, and foolishly l did, and
everybody laughed at me or with me,
and 1 was success, and they've kept
me talking or writing ever since.
That's what comes of talking too much
and trying to help some one out Now
I can't stop.
But wise cracks and picture work
paw better than the rope-thrswin' act,
and that saves my feelings lot
Sam Rork, who produced "a Texas
Steer" in which / got the big comedy
part Of congressman who was Tex
as cowman, says he picked me out Of
all the Hollywood actors because all
the rest of them have morality clauses
In their contracts and are afraid to act
like congressman.
But l figured it out that it's because
I was in the Folliss. I'm an ex-Follies
graduate, and If Barrymore had my
legs. he could still be on the stage.
But I'd been In the movies before
I signed up for "a Texas Steer" I've
been In more punkin' seed movies, and
most of the job was handling the rope.
But that was a smart movie, a comedy
special they called it, with real actors
helping me out, and all l had to do
was act the big comedy part Of being
a congressman That's cinch. Any
day in the week any congressman I've
known can give me big laugh acting
natural.

Local Designer for Bridgeport Works of General Flee.
 tric Acclaimed for Genius

Edward w. Forstrum of Strat- ford, who for the past 10 years has worked as a machine designer in this city and Bridgeport and who at present is employed as a designer at the Bridgeport works of the General Electric Co.,, was the recipient of Coffin award to- day.
 In 1922 the G. F. Co established the Charles A. Coffin foundation as a tribute to Charles A. Coffin, one of the founders and for many years president of the company. The foundation makes annual awards to employees for unusual meritorious service and also grants yearly prizes in the electric rail- way and utility fields and a num- Der of scholarships in American universities.
 Forstrum has shown unusual in- genuity and skill in his work, rap idly mastering the intricacies of the electrical industry, with the re- suit that he made unusual con- tributions to the mechanical equip ment of the Bridgeport works.
 During the past year he has been especially prolific and has to his credit a number of mechanical devices which have materially aid- ed in the solution of problems in- volved in connection with wire and cable and wiring supplies manu-

To- day probable cause was found in her case and she was ordered held for superior court under bonds of $1,000. When some additional in formation was obtained following the disposition of her case Judge John F. McGrath ordered the young woman held in Waterbury. She is charged with using the name of her mother in obtaining a watch from local jewelry store. The time-piece was later found in a pawn shop. She had borrowed five dollars on it. The court was in clined to treat the charge with leniency in view of the willingness of friends to make good with the original owners of the watch.

He was brought back to this city yes terday afternoon from Rochester in the custody of Lieutenant Mat thew J. Balanda. He is accused embedding $1, ,000 from a local in Surance company.
 Samuel Bennett, 23, of 981 North Main St. charged with assault with a dangerous weapon, was granted a continuance until March 18th.

She is presently a patient at the Waterbury hospital.
 Joseph Carosella, 32, of 175 South Elm street admitted to Judge McGrath that he was technically guilty of vagrancy as he is unable to obtain employment and furnish support for his family. His case was referred to Probation Officer Nicholas Combellack. Carosella on his appearance two weeks ago stat ed that he was in a state of "de- plorable indigency."
