Jesse did, so he says, was to forget about
his sore leg. He entered the hundred
yard dash and equalled the worlds rec
ord of "a seconds.
His leg began to bother him some more
but he got into the broad Jump and was
only able to crack the world record by
six inches plus, with a leap of IS feet
S4 inches.
That old leg was in pretty bad shape
by this time, so Jesse decided he ought to
work out the pain by a little more eXer-
else and his decision resulted in new
worlds record for the 220-yard low hur-
dies with a mark OF 22.6 seconds.
By this time poor Jesse and his poor
leg were Just about all in, but he man
aged to drag himself out for the 220
yard dash and sort of fizzled it. All he
did was set up his third worlds record
Of the afternoon by doing the dash in
20.3 seconds.
Three worlds records and tied for an
other in one afternoon. What would
Jesse have done had he been able to
stand on that other limb?
He stated in an interview after the
race, and all accounts emphasize that he
was not boasting that he thinks he can
do the hundred in 9.3. If he can only
get another good leg for the one which
handicapped him so on Saturday, he
probably can make it in that time.
De Hart Hubbard was supposed to be
? great broad jumper; Eddie Tolan and
Ralph Metcalfe are considered good
sprinters. All three Of these stars are
Negroes. Jesse, always providing he has
two good legs, could lick them all in one
afternoon. In fact we have a suspicion
that sore leg and all, he can trounce
anything in the track line Just now.
The Negro race has had plenty of rea-
son in recent years to be proud of the
athletic achievements Of It's boys. There
is a slight, oh very slight, chance that
Jesse Owens will give them plenty of
more reasons to be proud, if he can only
fix up that sore leg, the poor fellow.

WASHINGTON, May 27.-Post-
master General James A. Farley
will probably be looking for a tin
hat and a bombproof shelter when
he hears about this one.
The post office department has
started to turn out a great deal OF
free publicity for Henry Ford.
What with the Ford controversy
with the NRA. now Farley's own
department is turning out a free
advertisement for the motor mag
nate as fast as the presses in the
bureau Of engraving roll.
The new stamp concentrating
the San Diego exposition is the
trouble spot this time.
The stamp. a snappy purple
number. shows a view of the expo
sition grounds. Right in the center
foreground is a large white build
ing Of modernistic architecture.
The structure-about the most
prominent thing in the picture-is
the Ford building, although, OF
course, the name does not show on
the stamp.
The size Of the stamp makes it a
particularly good representation.
The issue is almost twice the size
of the usual commemorative and is
one of the largest stamps the de
partment has ever printed.
Farley already has had some diff
ficulty with the San Diego stamp
Elaborate ceremonies were ar
ranged at the bureau Of engraving

The postmaster general was to
throw a switch and deliver an APP
propriate address, all to the accom-
paniment of cameras.
When Farley arrived at the
plant, the presses made so much
noise that he had to give up the
idea Of making an address and he
almost didn't get the presses start
ed.
In the confusion and clatter, the
wrong switch was pointed out to
him. He threw it but nothing hap
pened. The presses stood idle and

Solution to Previous
Contract Problem
RY w. F.. MKENNEY
b w. II. M hENINE
Secretary American Bridge League


TODAY'S hand was played by
Il William F. Hopkins and is the
third of a series of articles by men,
bers of the team that last year sur
prised the bridge players of the
country by winning the national
knockout team of four champion
ship at Asbury Park.
1t is rumored that MesSrS. Porter
and Hopkins, Cincinnati, will be
teamed up this year with another
Cincinnati pair, while MeSsrs. Click
and Frank, Cleveland, will play
with pair from Chicago. This
will create two new strong combina-
lions from the Middle West.
From present indications this
years team of four contest at the
American Bridge League national
championship tournament to be held
in Convention Hall at ASbury Park
the week of Aug. 5, will be the larg-
est in the history of the game. Even
our Pacific Coast friends are plan
ming on sending one and possibly
two of their strongest teams to
compete in this contest.
Did you ever stop to think how
much information you can gain on
the opening lead? Let's just analyze
this hand, which was played by Mr..
Hopkins at seven hearts.
WEST opened the seven of
w spades which Mr.. Hopkins
read as a singleton. Why would
West open a singleton against a
seven contract? Certainly North
and South must have control of
every suit, otherwise they would
not be in a seven contract.
Therefore Mr.. Hopkins reasoned
that West must hold high card
in diamonds and clubs and did not
want to open their suit for fear of
establishing a trick for declarer. So
Hopkins proceeded to plan the play
of the hand to squeeze West. 1t
was done in the following manner:
On Vests opening lead of the
seven of spades, the four was played
from dummy and East played the
six, marking him with the ten
eight. Declared played the ace and
cashed the king of hearts.
He then led small heart to
dummy's ace and another heart
was returned, winning with the
queen. East in the meantime dis
carded the five of spades.
A small diamond was led next
and won in dummy with the ace.
The king of diamonds was cashed
and club discarded. A small dia-
mond was returned and, when East
played the jack, declarer trumped
with the eight of hearts.
A small spade was led and won
in dummy with the jack. West dis
carding the nine of diamonds. An
other spade was played and won
with the queen, West discarding
club
The king of spades was cashed,
and another club discarded by
West. Declarer let go of the deuce
of clubs.
You can now see that the de-
clarer had planned the play of the
hand down to the point where
West held the queen of diamonds
and the king-jack of clubs, and the
stage was all set for the squeeze.
The jack of hearts was led and
West was squeezed. A diamond dis
card would establish dummy's ten,
and a club discard would give de-
clarer two club tricks.
