was in port while others attended the baseball game and dances at the Mandarin Ball Room and Cap itol Beer Parlor.
 Crack Band Aboard
 The Oglala band, supposed to be one of the crack small bands of the Navy, and composed of some very good musicians contributed no little bit to the success of the day. The organization played down the street on a truck to the baseball park, where they periodically burst forth with a number well received by the fans in attendance
 After the band left the baseball park, they went down town where they played for an hour or so in a street concert which was enthus- iastically applauded by those who were fortunate enough to be on the street at the time.
 In Beer ParlOr
 Then Band Master Sid Zeremey took his musicians into the Capitol Beer Parlor, where they played for the remainder of the evening, the Navy almost completely taking charge of proceedings in that To- cality.
 The Oglala band has appeared in many places where the boat has touched, and the band master has huge volume of clippings com menting on the ability of his sail ors. In Honolulu, which was the last regular station of the vessel, the band was on the air several times over radio station KGU, and was said to be one of the most popular musical organizations there Left Early Today

 Brands of Mercy

With a total mileage of 4,610.5 miles behind her, the Coast Guard Gutter Tallapoosa, Capt F. w Brown, tied up here this morning at 8:3O o'clock, fresh from the Ber- ing Sea patrol.

 Including the present cruise, the Halibut Patrol, and the voyage to Seattle, the Tallapoosa has been nearly constantly on the move since March 1.
 Brands of Mercy
 The cutter carried large quan- ties of mail everywhere she went, and performed several errands of mercy chalked up in the register as lives saved. At Old Harbor, she was thrown off schedule when the school teacher, Mrs. Fora Dunagan, was found critically ill She had been bed-ridden for six weeks, and no boats had been in with a doc tor. An examination by Dr. John P. Mayer brought out that she could not hope to live there, so the Tallapoosa took her aboard and returned to Seward with her, where she was placed in the hospital. On the return voyage they were told that Mrs. Dunagan would recover,
 Several other persons afflicted with various sicknesses were trans ported to hospitals during the voy- age, and Dr. Mayer examined many Natives.
 Takes Faculty Members 1 At Seward, the Tallapoosa picked up two members of the Alaska Az ricultural College faculty. Ross Sheely, director of extension work in agriculture and home economies

Quiet Profit Taking Takes Place-Some Metals
 Under Pressure

NEW YORK, May 18. = Stocks lost most of their inflationary en- thusiasm shown yesterday and pric- es yielded most of yesterdays gains under quiet profit taking Some metals were under pressure Most of the declines were one point or less. The close today was heavy Sales were under 100000 shares. The curb was lower but bonds were firm.
 Profit Taking
 Overnight consideration in Wash ington of a silver accord tended to dispel the impression that cur rency expansion was imminent and various traders consequently decid- ed to cash in on profits pending a clearer outlook as to the monetary situation.
 Carloadings showed contra seasonal decline, attributed largely to a slackening pace of some in- dustries.
 Wheat was off more than two cents. Other cereals were down.
 Metal Prices
 U. s. Smelling was off four points but came back some. Howe Sound, American Smelling and De- pasco virtually regained declines.
 American Telephone and Tele- graph maintained equilibrium.
 Off fractions to one point were Case, United States Steel, Bethle- hem, Wester Union, Dupont Chrysler, General Motors, Ameri- can Can and others.

Je.vish Women VIII
 Support Peace Bills

A call to the 200 sections of the National Council of Jewish Wo- men to support actively two peace measures now before the senate and to oppose the Vinson Naval Bill, which is regarded by the or ganization as a threat to world peace. was sent out this week by Mrs Arthur Brin of Minneapolis president of the council. The first peace measure Mrs Brin advocated was the Nye resolution now in the senate Foreign Relations Com mittee which provides for an in- vestigation of the munitions ln- dustry and the profits which orig mate from 1t.
 The second Is the resolution for the adherence of the United States to the World Court which. after having been in committee since April, 1924, is shortly again to come up for a public hearing in Washington. At this hearing the National Council of Jewish Wo- men will have representation.
 The Vinson Naval Bill, which the council is opposing. calls for the largest peace time appropria- ton in history for naval purposes, an expenditure within the next five years of approximately $4O0, O0O,OO0 for various types of naval craft. and an almost equal annual C.. endit re subsequently for naval upkeep. As an organization with strong peace program. the Ma tional Council of Jewish Women mas endorsed the World Court measure and the Nye resolution and has registered it's opposition to the Vinson Naval bill..
 The sections are now working actively for the passage of the former two measures and the de- feat of the latter, both through the medium of telegrams and let ters to their senators and through efforts to arouse public opinion Tn their individual communities. These measures are also on the program of the National Commit tee on the Cause and Cure Of war of which the Council of JeWlsh Women is constituent member.
 In urging decisive action on these three pieces of legislation' Mrs Brin said: II regard the peace program of the National Council of Jewish Women as one of the most vital phases of us work. In fact. regard these three measures as the most vital before the American people today It IS imperative that we secure the passage of the Nye resolution ana insure the entrance of the Unite T States into the World Court, ana equally vital that we defeat the Vinson bill. At a time when America and the rest of the world are being so strongly influenced by fear and by war propagandd' we must redouble our efforts TOT world peace. Upon the women oi America rests a great responsible ity for thinking through this par amount problem of world peace. They must leave no stone unturneu to demonstrate the futility or war.

CONTRACT BRIDGE
 BY WM E. MCKINNEY Secretary of the American rsri,ige Icaguc
Freak Prevents Set Declarer Makes Unusual Play To Deceive Opponents, And Contract Is In,
 Instead Of Being Defeated
Solution to Previous Contract Problem

By VIM. E. MCKINNEY Secretary, American Bridge League
 If you look at all the cards in today's hand and try to analyZe it as double dummy problem, you will be wrong. This is play ing problem that came up in the national tournament against one of the country's best players. and I want to show you the psychology of doing the unexpected.
 The Bidding
 Vests opening bid of one spade is rather light for a second hand bid, but many players prefer to open with this type of hand in first or second position. Over the one spade double, South is afraid to leave the bid in, as his side may have a game.
 East and West are not vulner- able. The best South can hope to set them is probably one or two tricks, which would give him only 250 points; even If the contract were set three tricks, 1t would be. only 450 against a vulnera ble game of 600 or more.
 South, therefore, preferred to show the strength of his hand with bid of two no trump, which North carried to three.
 West elected to open his short heart suit. since South had bid no trump, and so he led the seven of
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-03-02

hearts. By the rule of eleven, the declarer could read that this was short suit opening.
 East put in the ten and declarer won the trick with the. ace. His normal play was to lead d small diamond. West played the ten and dummy's queen held the trick.
 What card would you play from dummy? If you play the king of spades and then a heart. you are sure to have the club suit started.
 The declarer decided to do the unexpected--to lead his weak suit to prevent the opposition from leading it. So he led small club from dummy and played the ten from his own hand, which West won with the queen.
 West could not be expected to continue clubs away from his king five, so he shifted to q spade, which was won in dummy with the king. The Jack of hearts was returned. East winning with the queen and returning a spade. Declarer went right up with the ace and dis carded q club from dummy.
 He now played a small diamond, which West won with the ace West cashed his queen of spades and the declarer had the rest of the tricks. (Copyright 1884 NEA Service, Incl
