Bridge players have learned. by
the slow process Of trial and error,
that certain combinations Of cards
call for plays differing slightly from
the sterotyped handling Of a suit.
For instance, 1t is almost auto
matte for a player holding ace
queen and a number Of small cards
in a suit to lead the suit from the
opposite han and f1nesse the queen
If the king has not been played. This
play sometimes gains a trick, but
there are many times when 1t will
lose.
Thus. with combination like A
Q-9-8-6 in one hand and 5-4-3 IN
the other, one trick In the suit
must be Il =, regardless Of how the
five cards are held In the opposing
hands, because the king, jack, and
ten are missing.
If there are enough entries In the
hand with the small cards, the best
play Is not to finesse, but TO lay
down the ace, then enter dummy
and lead a card toward the queen.
deciding ON the subsequent play by
the card played second hand.

mother. Each week glowing letter went to
Milwaukee. His last dollar was often used to
send gift to her.
An understanding mother, she allowed her
son his pride.
One zero night few days before Christmas
in Pittsburgh, he saw a forlom canary in a
cage. 1t looked dolefulfy upon the passing
throng. He sent it to his mother. 1t arrived
with the melting frost running from its
feathers in rivulets. Mrs. OBrien soothed it
as the hours dragged by. Suddenly it flew
across the room. That any canary, lately so
cold, could fly so far was miracle to her. She
named it Indy"
After eight years of wandering about,
young O'Brien found himself in New York
City with large experience and little money,
and the need to find work at once. Driven to
desperation, he took a job as a chorus boy
in musical comedy. The leading singing and
dancing gentleman in the show was the yet to
be herman of the screen, George Bancroft.
So sensitive was young Pat about the new
job that he did not reveal it to his father.
The show soon closed. Reduced to actual
want, he borrowed the stamps which sent
to his mother letters telling of the rivers he
was burning in New York.
The long road stretched ahead, uncertain
as politicians S word of honor.
He began to be dubious about his future.
Pat had found lovely room on Goth

he strolled along Broadway in search of some
one to share the room and expense with him.

the canary had been in Pittsburgh, was
Spencer Tracy.

:'I'm not sad," was the answer. "I've got
seventy bucks"
Immediately Pat told him of the elegant
room, and asked to borrow twenty-five.
II can let you have fifty" Spencer con-
fided.
Pat clutched at his swiftly beating heart.
IAN actor who's pal, ," he murmured.
Spencer helped him secure work with a
stock company in Plainfield, New Jersey. He
remained forty eight weeks.
He next became featured player in Des
Moines.
Fay BANTER, Ralph Bellamy. Frank
McHugh and Robert Armstrong, all later to
become famous, were members of the COM

From Iowa he went to Milwaukee "in
