reads as follows: "Philately has not

terms. Important events in the de-

not be lacking in automotive inter-
ests. Two exhibits, one by the Ford
Motor Co. and the other by Gen.
eral Motors, probably will prove
feature attractions, If not the most
spectacular. In these displays the
near future of motoring endeavor
will be portrayed.
Taking a lesson from engineering
experts who have definitely set the
pace for elevated roads, the Ford
Motor Co. has constructed "The
Road of Tomorrow" as an integral
part of its exposition building. This
road, which is more than "a mile
long, rises by a spiral ramp from
the ground level to maximum
height of 80 feet. Over it visitors
to the fair will be driven in cars
around and through the building
at an elevation which prophetically
demonstrates the trend toward the
day when vehicular traf11c will be
separated from pedestrian traffic.

| North and South were vulnerable,
and after West, the dealer, passed,
Mrs. Grimes, sitting North, bid one
diamond; East passed and William
Cheeks in the South bid one heart.
AS the bidding progressed on the
| third round he bid three no-trump.
when it was again Mrs. Grimes
turn to bid she called three hearts.
This was insufficient to overcall
| three no. trump and she was forced
to increase her bid to four hearts.
The singular feature of the play was
that several North and South pairs
bid five diamonds and were set two
! tricks redoubled for loss of 1000
points: others bid three no-trump
and were set three tricks, sometimes
| doubled. At some tables the four
| heart bid was doubled. Mr.. Cheeks,
however. was not doubled and went
down one trick for loss of 100,
which came close to being top on
the board.
Howe P. Cochran, Washington at
torney, earned the title of master
of psychics" at the Baltimore tour
nament. Such bids are sometimes
advantageous, but with the general
run of PLAYERS they are more often
unfortunate. They are for master
players only. never for novices and
rarely ever for the average players.
Mr.. Cochran, however. possesses the
faculty of knowing with uncanny
cunning when to make a psychic
bid and when to rarain from 50

dealer he picked up a hand in which
his highest cards were one jack

adversary on his left doubled. and
his partner, Col. Edward Clifford
passed thinking that the fourth
hand would take out the double,
but instead she made penalty pass.
Mr.. Cochran's adversaries won IL

being vulnerable But that was

Mr.. Cochran's teammates, Mr.. and
Mrs. A. F. Stockvis, playing in the
opposite direction, bid and made
seven no-trumps, and also being
vulnerable scored 2220 points. So
the Cochran-Clifford- -Stockvis team
won the board by $40 points. But
for Mr.. Cochran's psychic bid the
best the team would likely have
made was to tie with their adver-
saries. They would have suffered
a loss, however, had the Stockvis

Automotive Hints

Strange as it may seem your car
does much to steer itself, aided by
the road, according to Frederick c.
Russell, automotive authority. Per-
haps 1t would be more accurate to
say that it is the contact between
tires and road which provides most
of the self-steering effect. There is,
in effect. an imaginary track for
YOUR car to travel over. Destroy this
track. so-called. and you find it ex-
tremely difficult TO handle the car.
You have to add so much conscious,
manual steering as to make the proc
ess a real and quite fatiguing job.
Perhaps you have noticed this most
at high speed. particularly If the
road surface isn't smooth. 1t merely
provides the setting for observing
the loss of self-steering when the
front wheels are bouncing and when
contact with the road is thus only
partial.
Rule Must Be Observed.
The only safe rule when driving
a car with good chains properly in
stalled is to be just as cautious as
you would were you not so we'll pro-
tected. Unless this rule is observed
religiously you sacrifice that margin
of safety which is needed to make
chains effective
