Girl Grid Star On Sidelines As Team Loses
Middlefield, Conn.. Nov 2i.-(Up

Middleheld, Conn.,, Nov. 2l.-(UP) Mindful of her mothers admoni- ton to keep out of the game, Miss Esther Burnham,. star rowing center of the Middlefield Air Cadets, sat on the sidelines yesterday and watched her team lose to Rockfall, 38-5.
 The absence of their stellar play CT had a disheartening effect on the Cadets. While Esther was in the line few opposition plays got through her position. Yesterday Rockfall smashed through tire and again for touchdowns and Es- ther's activities were confined en- tirely to cheering.
 It was hoped that Mrs. Burnham would give her consent to permit Esther to play Saturday against the South Meriden All-Stars, probably the final game of the season.
 Since Esther was discovered" by newspapermen @ month ago, she has played but little because of her dislike for publicity, and es- pecially photographers.

 Paris-UP)-Captain Molyneux says This winter 1t Is smart to wear fur capes made either in fox. nutria or Hudson seal. Their length must be to the hips with no collars or scarfs."
 Smart women having heard this sartorial declaration, the Duchess de Gaylus had the Englishman make her a very beautiful silve, fox cape to wear with a plain black wool material dress. The Baronne went and did likewise.
 Madame Jean Ralli got him to make her a short black broad- tail cape to go with her black wool frock, and the Duchess of Leeds and Madame Weiswoller followed suit.
 Mink works on the bias these days, and a new length in coats and not a few capes that aren't hip-length as Molyneux says Is smart. are 9-10ths long--which just misses being what we'd call full length If we weren't extremely scientific about 1t.
 Among those who are wearing mink on the bias is Madame Dimitresco. wife of the ex-secre- tary to King Carol of Rumania Mrs w. K. Vanderbilt has just cabied big order for stuff for Florida--pajamas. beach dresses and jersey ensembles for the sunny side of the world. She also ordered q pale rose leaf pink evening gown, a grayish blue one and another in turquoise blue.

 Things now were beginning 10 look up little. North had kept all his spades, so he led the queen of this suit out of dummy, West covered with the, king, and North won with the ace. He continued with the jack and low one Tn succession.
 East won with the ten and could now cash his jack of clubs for the fourth trick, but instead of this he decided there was still some chance to set the contract and led back the ten of diamonds North proceeded to win with the king and laid down his two good spades. Poor East suddenly found himself squeezed and was forced to discard either his good club or his heart protection. He finally decided on the latter and North spread the hand for four no trump.
 Needless to say, no other North South pair had the same result on the board.

The element of luch Is supposed to he eliminated in duplicate bridge. because all pairs play the same hands, through the mealun of duplicate boards passed rom table to table: but I contend there Is still some element or iucK III every duplicate hand.
 I have always ranked Ed Hymes of New York as one of the finest of the younger players and still' in the national championships he Is unable to reach the top runR. He's a keen student of the game and can tell you in a flash whether the odds are In favor of certain play winning or losing, but lie does get some bad breaks.
 However, if his opponents slip in the least. you can depend on him to make the maximum of his momentary advantage. Heres a hand which he played in the re- cent mixed pair championship event in New York.
 The Play
 The three of clubs opening was quite favorable, as 1t permitted North to make his singleton queen. In spite of this, the out look was not very hopeful.
 North decided to make the pest of things and Jfinessed the jack of hearts Immediately. For lack of anything else to do, he returned the seven of diamonds and played the tack, losing to East's ace.
