Junior Group Meets in

Conference.

WILLIAMSBURG, Va, May T.
The exclusive Junior League of
America, which believes 'the pub
tic has heard too much of our So
cial doings," today held the con-
Guiding sessions of its sixteenth
annual convention.
The delegates refused to permit
reporters to accompany them from
Richmond to Williamsburg for the
final convention sessions, but con-
sented to pose for newspaper pho
tographers. In executive sessions
today the delegates discussed the
Junior League magazine.
AS leaguerS have felt the social
side of their organization has been
publicized too much, and their
charities have been overlooked, five
members were selected to describe
philanthropies of the leagues.
I'VE are trying to avoid refer
ences to the social standing of the
league members" Mrs. Dingman,
executive staff member, said. I'VE
want to destroy the social stigma
attached to the league, and show it
to the public merely as philan-
thropic organization.
I'VE are in the midst of a pub
licity campaign designed to erase
the popular idea that the league is
composed of jeweled socialites in
evening gowns stepping from linn
cuisines into banquet halls. The
league, of course, is an exclusive or
ganization. But we want to stress
the charities and philanthropies of
the league. We want very limited
publicity of just the right sort"
The 300 delegates were divided
into five regional group gatherings
for discussion of organization prob
lens. They were in charge of Miss
Mary Louise Breen, Dayton, o.;
Mrs. Arthur st. Julian Simons, Co
lumbia, S. c.; Mrs. Cyrus Phillip,
Milwaukee; Mrs. Billy Shaw Howell,
Charlotte, N. c., and Mrs. William
Ellery Bright Jr., Worcester, Mass.

Fry further advises, however,
that while considering your part
ner, you should not neglect your
against weak players and careful
against strong ones.
Fry ranks as one of the coun-
try's outstanding experts. Here is
a situation I saw him uncover in
a rubber game the other evening.
You can see that, outside of the
spade losers, declarer has only
one other loser, a club. There
fore, he can afford to give away
only two trump tricks. He must
guard against four trump to the
K-J-9-8 being in one hand.
There is only one sure way to
play this combination of trump
so as to lose only two tricks. The
first act is to cash the ace of
trump, and then declarer must
enter his hand and lead toward
the 10 of trump.
Now, even though the K-J-9
are in one opponents hand,
whether it be East or West, only
two trump tricks will be lost.
just try laying this trump sit
uation out for yourself, and you
will see the advantage of learn
ing this particular safety play.

ISOLATION to Previous
Contract Problem

BY VIM. E. M'KENNEY
American Bridge League Secretary
ZACH week some one writes a
IL new bridge book. Most of
them, though, simply repeat some
thing that already has been writ
ten. However, I have just COM
pleted reading a bridge book by
Samuel Fry Jr. written for the
Leisure League Of America.
It is little book that sells for
Is cents, and is entitled Better
Bridge" It's first chapter, on gen.
eral psychology, is bridge book
in itself, although only four pages
long. What a lesson III partner
ship understanding it is!
Fry contends that mathemati-
cal knowledge is only the starting
point. The partnership angle is
highly important.
With a distinct overbidder as
partner, every effort must be made
to allow for this by avoiding mini
mum bids and light forces. When
playing with an underbidder, an
occasional gamble is justifiable.

fusion and ends by becoming one.
Mrs. Bretzman wears this illusion
airy gown of floating chiffon in
much the manner of Fra Angelica.
It may have been inspired by the
spectacular American ballet, Err
rante," with it's angel-winged cape
that flutters gracefully from encir-
cling neckline to trailing hem.
The delicate blossom pink color
ing is enchantingly vivified by a
cluster of cornflower blue, poppy
red and sunflower yellow posies.
TRUE to the formula of the ball
l. room, where only the whirl-
ing backs of gowns are on display,
this creation is seductively simple
in line, with its main interest CEN
tered on the cascading panels that
float from the low back of the
dress, and the yards and yards of
swirling cape that follow in the
wake.

DR.. Naisnith

The game of basketball, most of
you know perhaps, had its origin at
Springfield College, in Springfield,
Mass, during the winter of 1912.
It is one of the few games that is not
an outgrowth of or a development
from some other sport. 1t was def
mite invention of DR.. James Naismith,
at that time teacher in the college.
It is said that necessity is the
mother of invention and that certain
y holds true with basketball. The
men in the gymnasium class of the
college at that time became somewhat
tired of the monotony of the routine
gym class exercises. Teachers at the
college got together to discuss the
ideal game and decided that of the
current games lacrosse was the best.
During the meeting DR.. Naismith in
formed the group that he would invent
the necessary game.
He decided on the following re-
quirements:
1. The game should be one that
could be played by large number
Of men at once.
2. It should be such that it could
be played on any type of surface.
3. It should give a participant
good all-round exercice.
4. It should be attractive enough
so that men would want to play it for
the sake of the game.
5. It should have little or none
Of the roughness of rugby or foot
ball.
g. 1t should be a game that would
be easy to learn.
z. 1t should be sufficiently scien-
tific so that it would be of interest to
old players.
With these ideas in mind DR.. Mai
smith decided on the following things
for his new invention.
1. It " uld be necessary to have a
ball in game in order to make it
scientit4 and interesting.
2. A large ball was necessary so
THAT it could not be hidden and re-
quired no practicing with bats or
sticks as in baseball, hockey and la
crosse.
8. In order to eliminate the tack
ling as in football, the players were
required to hold the ball in the hands,
away from the body.
a. AS further prevention against
roughness, the players would not run
with the ball but must pass it.
5. Goals of some sort were neces-
sary so peach baskets were used and
were raised up from the floor to pre-
vent man from acting as goal ten
der and obstructing them.

AGED MERCHANT IS
SLUGGED BY A NEGRO

Alleged to be the assailants of Geo.
Ford, 73-year old Hillsboro merchant
who was slugged with a blackjack
as he was closing his Main Street
store for the night, John Truxton,
Enoch Pritchell and Paul Nichols, Ne
groes of the Queen Anne-Hillsboro
neighborhood, are being held in Den
ton Jail awaiting trial.
The elderly merchant suffered scalp
wounds, injuries to the head and eyes
and sprained arm as he fought off
the Negroes attempt to stun and rob
him. He was treated by DR.. Robley
Hackett of Queen Anne and was still
confined to his bed on Wednesday.
According to reports, the Negroes
had been lurking near several stores
in Queen Anne and Hillsboro. They
eventually prowled around Mr..
Ford's place of business trying to at
tract him to the back door. AS the
merchant locked up for the night the
Negroes accosted him and struck him
three times with a blackjack.
His cries for help attracted Mrs.
Joseph Eaton, daughter of Charles Jar
rell, who lives across the street and
the Negroes fled when their attack
was discovered.
Despite his injuries Mr.. Ford was
able to make his way to the store of
Milford Kline, where he collapsed.
Sheriff H. Salisbury Sparks of Car
oline county was notified of the as
sault and he arrested the three men,
one of whom is said to have confessed.
Trial has been deferred until Mr.. Ford
is able to appear for testimony.
