Tosconini Leads Work
By Samuel Barber
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. Nov. 5.-Samuel
Barber, 28-year-old musical lack of
all trades and master of one, was
given the accolade tonight by Ar
turo Toscanini.
Barber's two latest works. an
adaglo for string orchestra and his
Essay for Orchestra" were played
by the maestro at his broadcast, and
were given as much applause as
broadcasting regulations permitted.
1t was especially notable be-
cause Toscanini has been notably
unlnterested in American COM
posers all his life. Indeed, he has
conducted nothing by an American
since March, 1888, when he per-
formed Howard Hanson's Second
Symphony" The only other Amer
leans so honored have been Ernest
Schelling and Abram Chasins.
BARRIERS first appearance of more
than local interest was February 4,
1885, when this gifted nephew of
Nine. Louise Homer and protege of
Mary Louise Curtis Box was pre-
sented by N. B. C. as both baritone
soloist and pianist" in program
entirely of his own compositions.
Since that day he has concen-
trated on composition.

The contest for The Star Trophy
in the intermediate event of the
9th annual tournament of the
Washington Bridge League at the
Shoreham Hotel last night provided
spirited competition among three
groups of participants, representing
the Federal Bridge League, the
Agricultural Bridge Club and the
Roosevelt-Cheeks players. with Mr..
and Mrs. w. A. Gardner of the Fed
eral League leading by small mar
gin because of their success in the
first session on Thursday.
Besides winning The Ste Trolhy
the victors may also acquire the
temporary possession of the Lemon
Plaque which is an added prize in
this event open to those pairs who
have not heretofore won it and
have not acquired master points.
In the open-pair championship

mately one-half of the players were
eliminated for failure to qualify for
the finals in the session held yes

latter match will not be known until
this afternoon.
intermediate Event Final.
The second session of the mixed
pair event. which is the outstand-
ing match of the tournament, call
ing to it the leading players Of
Washington and vicinity as we'll as
the largest attendance. was played
at the same time as the second and
final session of the intermediate
event.
The first session of this contest
occurred yesterday afternoon. One
feature was the number of psychic
bids in which the players INDUCED.
A psychic. it should be stated for
the benefit of the uninitiated, is a
bid, usually the first made, in which
the bidder names suit in which
he is very weak. A good or perhaps
a safe psychic bid is one made
when the bidder has another suit
to which he can switch If he gets
into trouble. 1t is made to deter
mine by the partners response what
his holding is in that suit, so that
the original bidder may 60 on to
another and his best suit. A psychic
no trump bid is sometimes made on
very weak hand to prevent advers-
aries from making a game in a suit
bid. because they will be afraid to
attempt a game contract against
2 no trump bid the strength of
which they cannot know.
A Triple Psychic.
Skilled players now and then
make psychic bids but they do not
recommend them. John Donnelly
and Mrs. w. S. Rohleder were the
chief projectors of such bids yes
terday. Some of them were sue
cessful: others were disastrous One

The Secretary, in statement, linked

to substitute falsehoods for the sup

That situation existed in Oklahoma,
