Costly Curelessness

A. Cyril Daddy of st. Louis. Mo,
\ sends us another interesting hand.
He writes: Recently I watched
hand which seems interesting by rea-
son of its apparent simplicity. Ac-
tually, 1t was not quite so simple as
it seemed and it left me with an
uncomfortable feeling that I, also,
would have lost the contract by
playing in the same careless way as
the actual declarer. .
South, dealer.

South won the opening club
lead" Mr.. Daddy says, land noted
that if the trLmps were divided no
worse than four-two, he had but one
apparent loser in spades and two in
clubs. Confidently he led the spade
10, on which East played the ace.
But after the defenders had cashed
two club tricks, West led the 18th
card of that suit East ruffed with
his otherwise useless nine of spades
and declarer was down one, for
when he overtrumped, Vests eight
of spades was good for the setting
trick
After taking the first club trick,
declarer could just as easily have
played a heart to dummy's ace and
taken. the simple safety measure of
leading toward his trump sequence
instead of away from it. Against
this slightly better play no defense
would have set the hand"

Answer-Your correct bid is to

supported by pillars beneath them.
A study of decks is interesting.
The Aquitania, a large British boat
but no longer superliner, has 10
floors above the bottom and eight
Of them are named as decks. Far
down below is the orlop deck, and
above it are the lower deck, the main
deck, the upper deck. the shelter
deck, the bridge deck, the promo
made deck and the boat deck.
The bottom of q modern-style
ocean liner is double. This helps
make the framework strong and it
also guards against danger. II the
vessel should run against rocks the
lower part of the bottom might
cave in, but the upper part might
not be damaged.
Another safety plan is followed
by making bulkheads, or walls, in
side the hull. Even with q hole in
the side. the vessel may be kept
af1oat by closing doors in the walls
and keeping water from flooding
other parts.

Mr.. Farley is en- route to the San

leading part in the special Postal
day. festivities next Monday. His
Journey across the country has been
described by Washington corrospon-
dents and national news weeklles
as lone of the first tours of presi-
dental aspirants.
First indication from an Arizona
source that Mr.. Farley is giving
serious thought to the possibility
of succeeding President Roosevelt
was MI. Bowman's announcement
last week that he was supporting
the postmaster general as 1.-The out
standing man to succeed President
Roosevelt
Committeeman Bowman added:
Farley is liberal enough to be
satisfactory to the liberals and con-
servative enough for the business
institutions of the United States.
1t is well known he is 100 per cent
for labor and will get their backing
should Roosevelt decide not to seek
third term.
II believe Farley is the one man
the Democrats can easily elect Pres
ident and that they will be proud
of him as an occupant of the White
House"

St. Patrick s
Bowling Notes

Members Of the rules COMMITTEES
will hold a special meeting ct the
Lyceum Thursday night at 8 o'clock
for the purpose Of arranging teams
in proper form with averages estab-
lished until this point. Included on
the committee are Chairman Eddie
Lotus, Rev. william Wirkus, Fran
els Fitzgerald, Joseph Hench, Joseph
Bowen, Francis Hardy, also Jack
Delaney and H. P. McGrath.
The biggest thrill Of the past week
was special contest which featured
Mary Rinaldi and Helen Delaney,
the latter taking two OF three games
and total pinfall. The most disap-
pointed captain was Frank Hardy,
and the most surprised team was
that of Joe Bowen which took three
games from Ronnie DAILY and his
charges. Reason for the defeat was
the indifferent attitude of Eleanor
Barnes, the Wilson Street Carlo.
Rita Wells has already proven to be
bowler of merit who should rank
among the leaders.
Margaret Conlan and Helen
Bowen completed the reception
committee for Christine Kelley who.
claims to have hit them not SO good
on the occasion of her debut. Fran
Mitchell kicked up quite q stir as
cheer leader for the Delaney-Ri-
naldi tilt. Helen Kelly is hitting the
maple consistently and will be
great prospect for her new captain.
Mrs. Keller is doing fine, looks like
a champion already.
So Harry Ryan broke three figures
at last and AL Herbert hit 70,
making two high and low surprises.
Kenny Sensler and Ted Hardy
split high with 345, Margaret Con-
Ian hitting III, for three games.
Johnny Gudonis let up Q little
last week, which might be q trick
to be placed on a strong team. Mike
Higgiston's team annexed there more
games, thanks to the great bowling
of Vim Kelly and Jack Mitchell. Take
bow, boys. Eddie Conlan was one
pin short of the 300 mark which
proves that even the best bowlers
sometimes have off nights. AL
lacks threatened to run up a new
game high in the second heat, and
reached 121 All bowlers will be as
signed to their new positions at
Sena's alleys on Friday night at 9
o'clock.
