The players who overcalled EaSt's
opening heart bid with two clubs hotly
defended their logic. After all, South
was vulnerable, whereas East was not.
Had the vulnerability been reversed, all
admitted that they would have dou-
bled. But, as it was, South was not
at all sure that he wished to push the
bidding to three clubs unless North
held club support. Naturally, the six
card suit must be shown first, because
it is clearly evident that South Is go
ing to be forced to run hearts after
the opening lead. A double will al
most surely elicit a diamond response
from North-and then where are you?
Up at three clubs. No, said the over
callers 1t is far better to bid two
clubs and then, If North bids dia-
monds, or If East bids some more
hearts, you have another suit to show
at the two level-namely, spades. And
North, continued the overcallers,
should not be afraid to give South a
little help, if he holds as much as two
kings. After all, vulnerable over
call shows a strong hand.
81 want to know whether my part
ner holds four spades" said Alfred
Noise, jr., firmly. THE only way I
can find that out is by doubling the
opening heart bid' There is logic in
that statement, certainly. 1t is simply
unfortunate that most Of the teams
that doubled ended up playing the
hand in three diamonds: unfortunate
from the point Of view that four spades
is not extremely difficult to make.
Not that the hand should ever play
in four spades. Heavens, no! But
there is no reason why a contract OF
three spades should not be reached.
One Of the overcallers was well on
his way toward that spot, but his part
ner lacked duplicate courage. The
bidding went: One heart, two clubs,
pass, pass (and believe that instead of
passing North should have bid two
diamonds. This is a moot question,
however,. East doubled. South passed
and West bid two hearts. When the
bidding got around to South he bid
two spades Once more this bid trav-
eled around to East, who ventured
three hearts. South had to give up.
East was permitted to play the hand
at three hearts. Although Sonny"
Noise was on the side Of the doublers,
he said afterward, and I agree with
him, that it was simply inconceivable
for North not to bid three spades after
South's strong bidding.

plain the name. Resting on a high
cliff is an old fortress or castle, which
has been a center of defense when
Belgrade was attacked. This fortress,
later turned into barracks for SOL
diers, was once Of white color, but 1t
Is now maroon with age"
Belgrade Is the home Of people of
many races and religion. 1t has
grown very swiftly during the past IA
years. A recent estimate places the
population at close to quarter of
million. Among the long time resi-
dents are Turks, who dwell by the
riverside in plaster houses with red
tile roofs.
The story Of Belgrade goes back
1,700 years, to the time when a fort
was built near the place where the
Danube and the Sava Rivers join
Since that time there have been so
many changes in masters" Of the city
that it almost makes us dizzy just to
read the list. Among those who have
held power at one time or another are
Celts, Romans, Huns, Goths, Franks,
Bulgarians, Greeks, Hungarians,
Turks. Austrians and Serbians.
In the World War the Austrians
and Germans captured Belgrade. 1t
Is now back in the hands Of the
Serbians. Prince Peter, an 11-year-
old boy, took the name of King after
the death of his father.
The people of Belgrade make their
living largely by trading, weaving
cloth. working with iron and making
boots. shoes, soap, glue and pottery.

Everyday Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE W. SPRowLs
Grabbed Age.

GRABBED age.
EXPERIMENTAL psychology is de-
demolishing one foolish notion
after another, especially pet notions
about the mental nature of human
beings.
To take an example: Since the
World War there has been a lot OF
talk about this being the young
mans age" The glories of war tend
to exalt youth. Estimates about the
abilities of young men, their capacity
to learn, their leadership, and so forth
have been linked up with their ability
to Withstand physical hardships.
Psychologically speaking, there
never has been young mans age, nor
is there likely to be one. Every age
has been an "old mans age" and
every age to come will be the same 1t
stands to reason that nothing but
experience, and that extending over a
relatively long period of time, can
really equip a mans mind for the
business of making adjustments to life
Relatively few men are at their best
in the 30s, although there are q lot
of good and wise men Of that age. You
will find more and better men, so far
as mental abilities go, somewhere in
the Cos, and even later. All this
despite the ravages of general physical
incapacities.
Experimental psychology has proved
beyond all doubt that the average man
at As is Just as plastic mentally as his
son Of IS. He learns the languages
just as readily, and If anything. a little
better. Such psychological facts mean
something. The mind does not harden
with the arteries, nor does it become
twisted, merely because its possessor
develops curvature of the spine.

you are likely to feel lot better.
Buster Bear was feeling out of sorts.
Yes, sir, he was feeling decidedly out
Of sorts. And because he was feeling
so, he was doing a lot of grumbing

doubt that he felt better for so doing.

he was overheard.

Youthful Beauty
Up to Person
Despite Aids
BY ALICIA HART

You may be able to afford regular
and frequent visits to fine beauty
shops, but, in the final analysis,
preservation of your good looks and
youthful beauty is up to you.
Weekly facials and scalp treat
ments are fine, but night-after-
night home treatments and daily
brushing are what count in the long
run. If your hands are to remain
soft and attractive. you must sup
plement your weekly manicure and
hand massage with applications Of
hand lotion after each washing and
cuticle oil around finger nails each
night.
A society girl-one who can af-
ford to go and actually does go to
beauty shop three times a week
admits that proper cleansing of her
skin at night, the right kind Of
daily baths, exercise in the open
air and a sensible diet have much to
do with the clarity of her skin and
sparkle IN her eyes.
After all, no one except yourself
possibly can be responsible for the
kind of food you eat and the amount
of exercise you get. You are the
one who must decide to see your
doctor whenever you notice that you
are losing too much weight or that
your skin seems to be covered with
blemishes good part of the time.
No one can lead you to the dentist.
You must pick your own beauty
shop operator. After you have found
one whose work is satisfactory, you
yourself are the only. one who can
carry out his suggestions about ways
and means to improve and preserve
your good looks between visits to his
salon. Your beauty is game in
which you are both contestants.
Whether you VIII or lose, you have
only yourself to blame or praise as
the case may be.
