Celebrating two outstanding achievements and participating Q third event, officials and employees of the Sears, Roebuck and CO. of | Waterbury last night attended Q dinner and dance at the Hotel Ell ton. The Waterbury store was the recipient of many congratulatory remarks for having been first in two big sales competitions for the eastern district in July and August. In July, the Waterbury store was l first in the Century of Progress Sale" and in August, emerged vic- toriously in the August Home Furnishing Sale" In order to win these events, the Waterbury store had to compete against stores To- cated in cities like Bridgeport, New Haven.

Laboratory tests must prove to the Sears organization that the products offered will not only live up to but actually out-live their guarantee.

 It was expected that Mr Hoover and his wife would go to the fail today, but Lawrence Ritchey, for. mer secretary and close confidential adviser during presidential days said Mir Hoover had not definitely decided when he would go. When he goes he will be escorted by motorcycle patrolmen. Troops from Camp Whistler will be drawn up in parade formation and will fire a presidential salute of 21 guns. Then Mir Hoover will be escorted to the administration building for a formal reception which will be fol- lowed by a tour of the grounds by automobile and boat.
 Mr Hoover appeared in excellent health and spirits. He joked with Harry s. New, commissioner of the fair.
 I'm surprised to see you still holding a job" Hoover said to the Indiana republican.
 MT Hoover refused to answer questions regarding political Is. sues. He said he probably would remain in Chicago four or five daya~

Declarer won the trick with the
queen and then ruffed the Jack of
clubs in dummy with the king OF
diamonds.
; He then led a heart and granted
his opponents two heart tricks
spreading his hand for the rest of
the tricks and making three dia-
monds doubled on hand in which
his opponents held four aces and
three kings.
1t is true that the hand could
have been defeated if East had
overtaken his partners queen of
clubs with the king and then led
his ace and small heart. West
could have won the heart trick with
the king and then returned a heart,
giving East ruff.
However, even that would have
been a good score for North and
South, as East and West could
easily make a small slam in clubs.

is achieved by such simplicity OF
cut that any beginning will find the
