NEW YORK, Oct. s. - Will the Yankees win their third straight World Series?
 This prognosticator is already eliminating the question mark l make a confident assertion that the Yankee Etadium will see the World Series flag raised again at the con- clusion of the ceremonies on open ing day next spring.
 The last two times the Tanks met the Giants and won. They have known what it was to defeat the Pirates in 1927 and the Cubs in 1o32.
 That the Tanks will be the cham pions it might be well to back this bold statement with facts.
 The pitching of the Tanks has been growing stronger with Ruff fling as tops.
 The Yankee bats still function. They have hit more homers than any other team in either league and homers do a lot of scoring.
 The infield has been smooth and intact, with Gordon earning his nomenclature og Flash" Crosetti stealing bases at lively clip, and Rolfe strong at the hot corner. Iron Man Gehrig is not making some of Inc records he did in earlier years but he is still the Iron Man, and that's a good sort of person to have around first base.
 There isn't any better catcher than Bill Dickey and he isn't at all averse to hitting, while the out field throwing arms and lively bats might be mentioned.
 So let the oncomers meet the Tanks. It will be great fun-while it lasts.

 She led the eight of diamonds, and played the queen from dummy North won with the king and re- turned another heart. TheNen won and trump was led and won in dummy with the ace. A low dia- mond was led and when the ace dropped, Mrs. Rush ruffed and laid down the queen of trumps.
 When North failed to follow, Mrs. Rush led her last trump and f1neSsed the ten. South's jack was picked up and the established dia- monds gave her not only her con- tract, but two overtricks as well.
 Strangely enough some players did not even make four, as they tried to crossruff the hand and ended up making only eight tricks, instead of at least 10.

 Run for Their Lunch
 Gable seemed to feel pretty silly in his floral decoration, and the ribbing of Tracy and Miss Loy didn't help to put him at ease. Also the extras began to tire, for after three takes they had run about half a mile. Director Victor Fleming promised lunch after one more take. and this sustained the mob for 9 final dash across the field.
 Technical advisor for '@Fest Pilot" is Paul Mantz, HollywoodS Flying Cupid" whose plane is called the Honeymoon Express. He taxies most of talkietown's elopers to Yuma, Ariz., where they can be married without the delay im- posed by California law. Gable has promised to go on Mantz' next trip, but only for the ride and to act as a witness.

STRAND

Sparkling from start to finish with 8 merrily romantic story, a group of spectacular dances and captivating Gershwin tunes, Fred Astair's new starring vehicle "A Damsel in Distress" with Burns and Allen, began four day engagement at Warner Brothers Strand theater this afternoon.
 The story is based on one of P. G. Wodehouse's best known humorous tales of English life, with Astaire in the role of an American dancer who seeks to rescue a titled British girl from her impending marriage with a man she detests. It is compli- cated in uproarious fashion by the activities of half dozen other principals.
 Much of the tangle evolves from the conflicting royalties of the Ser- wants, of whom a stately butler and a romantic young page boy are the most active, while Astaire's press agents endeavor to free him from the affair and get him off to Paris to fill dancing engagement. And the result is a continuous panic for the audience.
 Burns and Allen, as the busy pub licists. are at their hilarions best, and Miss Fontaine is both lovely and convincing as the distressed damsel.
 The companion feature is Part ners In Crime" with Lynne Over man and Roscoe Karns in the little roles. It's the hilarionS tale of a newspaper man and a private de- tective who starts out to clean up a town laboring under political cor ruption and get themselves involved in all sorts of laughable situations.

 Hollywood-At least one sequence of MGM's "Test Pilot" will go to the screen without any retakeS. This is the one dealing with last summers National Air Races.
 Three camera crews were sent to Cleveland to film the Thompson Trophy Race and now some of these scenes will be cut into "Test Pilot" to provide thrilling realism.
 In order that these scenes may tie in credibly with the picture, Metro has bought a couple of the planes which actually participated in the race. These ships will be used for closeups' with Clark Gable, Myrna Loy and Spencer Tracy.
 The plane which Gable is sup posed to fly is Earl Ortman's Mar caux Bromberg Special which took second money in the Thomp- son classic. They could not buy the first-prize winner; Rudy Kling died in that one in Miami last month.
 Driving to the Van Nuys Airport, where the company is on location, wondered what the movie-makers would do about the mountains which occupy every horizon for there are no such mountains around Cleve- land.
 Eliminating Mountains
 What they did was perch their cameras on high platforms and shoot down at the field. Around the edge were official cars, ambulances. trouble cars and fueling trucks. all decked out with new Ohio licenses.
 Only thing wrong was that the icens didn't have any letters on them, while real Ohio plates have two letters.
 The scene being shot was after the finish of the race, with Gable standing beside his ship and wear ing a wreath of flowers. Just then, however, another plane is supposed to crash at the end of the field, and the crowd sprints away in the wake of ambulances and fire trucks.
 Myrna Loy starts to dash with the crowd, but Tracy stops her
