the Potomac Park polo grounds
will be the scene of the clash be-

starts the series Of games between
the winners Of the first games and
the consolation tournament be-

Ten Days of Games
So, for the next 10 days, all
roads will seemingly lead to the

their cars and, atop their motors

was pretty. Dark eyes, dark hair. red lips.
She smiled, smile as pretty as herself, and
said something about Monsieur being 'veree

chucked her under the chin. And midway
through the second aperitif Bruce invited
Nina to tinkle ice with him over the little

good for man to get away once in awhile -
to 20 out with another woman so he'd appre

They lost themselves in the revelry of
Vardis. They held hands across the table.
Bruce pressed her close when they danced.
She didn't seem to mind. And once or twice
she lifted her face and smiled into his eyes.
When she did this Bruce wanted to kiss her.

Hadn't he planned to show Paris to Mary

The music stopped. The couples filed
slowly off the floor. Bruce had the glasses re-

and the man from table fourteen did not come.
Bruce waited patiently. Minutes went by.

"Of course not" Bruce replied generously.

Either they feel that the relief Is

or they lack heart for this kind Of

Onlooker Has Another View.
In one respect there Is abundant
testimony that the relief projects are
q detriment to the Democrats. How
ever, the persons on relief may feel,
the onlookers have q point Of view Of

and ineficiency which is probably In
separable from relief projects even II

exist, the neighbors and onlookers,
the farmers and those engaged In

strongly critical attitude toward the
relief work, and toward the party re-

1t Is expected that during the re-

will be exposures Of Democratic man

Albert Andrews Played
$4,000 Performances
in = Years.
BY LEMUEL r. PARTON.

Albert @. Andrews, still playing OF,
Broadway. celebrates the anniversary
Of rs years on the stage. He has played
more than 200 holes and $4,000 per-
formances. His father was an actor
more than 100 years ago.
His first appearance, at the age of
4, In Dublin. was with Mrs. Fanny
| Sterling in Masks and Faces" Mrs.
Sterling. he says today, was the best
actress he ever saw, and he has sup
ported many Of the greatest stars Of
the theater. William H. Chippendale
he picks as the greatest actor Of his
time.
Averaged $4,000 Yearly.
He was born in Buffalo hotel when
his father, a British comedian. was
playing there, and was taken to Eng
land in early infancy. His period Of a
full-hedged actor, not a juvenile,
covers so years. In England he earned
from IS TO $50 q week, and, in America,
from $25 to $400. His average earn
ings, in his adult career. have been
about $4,000 a year.

times in Beau Brummel" With

He was and is a workmanlike actor,
in character or straight roles. He Is
q master of good diction and knows
how to behave like human being.
Seventy-fve working years in
career which old age begins to dog
men Of 40! The answer may be
found in the fact that he always has
his back to the years He never spins

thoughts.

has turned out uncannily accurate.
At the same time. some straw votes
covering single States or smaller areas,
thorough within their fields as the
Literary Digest is on national scale,
point toward Democratic victory.
One aspect Of the Literary Digest
poll is alone sufficient to account for
current nystification and to justify
the statement that this Is an extraor-
dinary campaign. The Digest in
quires Of those to whom 1t sends straw
ballots how they voted in 1892. The
result Of this part Of the Digest COM
pilation Is itself unique. It turns out
that apparently about 2S per cent of
those who in 1882 voted Democratic
will this year vote Republican. And
1t turns out that about Il per cent
Of those who in 1882 voted Republican
will this year vote Democratic. The
shifts in the Republican direction are
more than twice the shifts in the
Democratic direction.
Peculiar Condition.
But let us omit any inference bear
ing on the outcome next November.
Let us consider the simple phenom-
enon that apparently 28 per cent of
one party and II per cent of the
other are this year shifting their
allegiance. That is an extraordinary
condition. 1t alone is enough to make
this election unique. There have been
occasions when large numbers of one
party shifted. In 1882, for example,
q large percentage of the Republican
party shafted away from Mr.. Hoover
In 1928 q large percentage Of the
Democratic party shifted. away from
"Al" Smith. But never before, I
think, has 1t happened that large
percentages Of both parties shifted
their allegiance. This one condition
Is sufhcient to make the outcome Of
next November's election confusing to
predicters and estimaters.
The prevailing mystification about
the outcome can be accounted for in
part by some other developments
which are new in this campaign. 1t
Is frequently stated that for the first
time in America. or at least to q
greater degree than ever before, the
division Of voters in this election Is
horizontal. That is. that persons in
the middle and upper economic levels
are prevailing for the Republican
candidate, while persons in the lower
economic levels. especially those on
relief rolls, are prevailing for Mr..
Roosevelt.
Machine Votes Cities.
In this assumption, there is prob
ably some substance. But 1t is sub
ject to some decidedly important quail
ifications. Many Of the persons on
relief. or otherwise in the lower eco
nomic levels, are inhabitants Of the
densely populated parts Of large cities.
AS such they have in the past ha-
bitually been led in their voting by
the city political machines. Some
of the machines, as in New York,
are Democratic. 1t follows that in
New York most Of those who this year
will vote Democratic because they are
on relief would in any election vote
Democratic as followers Of Tammany.
In some other large cities the most
powerful machine Is Republican. And
IN such cases it may be that the
Republican machine will be superior
to the Democratic relief organization

course, means ruin to the investors

To help the municipalities the
