The margin OF difference between
the expert and the ordinary good
bridge player Is very small. The ex-
pert has more experience and has
played against persons from differ
ent territories. The average player
plays @ good game Of bridge, but he
might miss O certain type Of squeeze
or end-play-however, he doesn't
miss many Of them. I was greatly
impressed with the type Of bridge
played In every city on my last
trip.
For example, here Is a hand that
I saw played by Randolph Scott, a
cotton broker Of Memphis. Just q
word about the bidding = you will
note that North, having kept the
bidding open with one no trump,
passes the three-spade Jump bid.
This Is quite In order, as the three

Is not q demand bid.

It's Time To Think

than try to graft Off some ca rdi-
date for a mess of pottage. flat-
forms are made to run only and
not to stand on after the elect ion.
My people need more frieA ads
among the white people who ", Ill
try and do something for the
group rather than few who may
do the loudest hollering and
shouting during election. 1t Is
time to count up the cost and
measure the candidate by what
ne has done rather than what he
says.
Hand shaking time is on, but I
am one who thinks that a person
who does not know me at off
years won't know me at election
time-that is, ne should not. We
have a lot of fellows who just
want few crumbs that fall from
the laps of the candidate, then
holler all the year round for
something the man has paid for
in advance, that fellow is a men,
ace to any people.
The young white man and the
young Negro are looking at life
differently from those who lived
long ago. It Is not matter of So
cial equality any more; it's a
square deal for all. his idea Is a
fast gaining ground in this coun-
try of ours. Mayor Maverick Of
San Antonio, Texas, in a radio
broadcast last Monday night stated
that he was not a 'n----r" lover
but wanted the Negro to have q
fair chance in this race for exiS-
tence as other men have. He, too,
wanted the Negro to vote, even in
Texas. He stated that "But few
Southern states ever had a majori-
ty vote on any question" This,
he stated, was due to the fact that
only about 25 percent Of the to-
tai population ever voted at any
election, cue to the poll tax re-
ceipt necessary to vote. he stated
disfranclises more whites than
blacks in his state, while in Okla
hcrrla We disfranchise many be-
cause the registrars willfully won't
register them.
This condition should be chang
ed both in Texas and in Okla
homa; any taxpayer should have
right to vote the taxes upon his
property regardless Of color.
