More than 2,000 California couples came to Nevada in June alone to escape the "gin marriage" law and the new California physical exam nation law, but the Rev. Adams said it was the so-called quiet, home weddings" where the gin and whiskey flowed.
 "The Californians who come here to get married are cold sober" the minister declared. "The gin mar riage law is . misnomer. It's at home that the liquor flows. Almost never do I ofilciate at home wed- ding that there are not ample spirits"
 "No Money, Good Whiskey" The marrying pastor" who aver ages a dozen ceremonies a day. re- called that he recently oficiated at a home wedding where the bride groom said: T haven't much money to pay you, but can sure give you some good whiskey."
 The California "gin marriage" law has been under fire of success siye California legislators and has been fought by county clerks of | California who say they are losing revenue by the persistent flow of elopers across the border to Nevada, and by the California Jewellers Asso- ciation, which decried the loss of wedding ring sales caused by the ex- oduS.
 Nevada requires neither waiting nor physical examination. Since the California physical examination law went into effect last September the influx to Reno has been more than doubled.
 Usually about 300 couples come to Reno over the weekend to be married, have 8 nice trip, see Reno; legal gambling halls and return te California within 48 hours. Res taurants, florists, taxis, judges anc ministers fees, service stations ane resorts have prof1ted principally.
 El0pers Lack Funds.
 Most of the elopers are not "gooe spenders." having little money tt spread in Reno's gay spots. Ere quently they do not have money tt pay the minister.
 Recently when the county clerl asked for the $2 license fee, bridegroom fumbled, went into {
 huddie with his bride-to-be ane both retired to the judges chambers
 where the girl removed g from he stocking. Few of the Reno-bound couples are from families of means. Mos are clerks, agricultural or lumbel workers-the great majority of Cali fornia youth with little money wh' want to get married, whose parent don't insist on a church or forma

wedding, who have few dollars ahead and decide to elope to Reno.
 Sons and daughters of California first families" have home or church weddings.
 One out of three of the brides slips show as they stand before the judge or pastor.
 Many of Foreign Extraction. The name "Silva" appears on the marriage roster more often than smith, Jones, Brown or Johnson" l" indicating the large percentage of southern European extraction of the eloperS.
 Although without physical exam ination or three-day waiting period laws, Nevada insists on one thing: Couples must be of age, or have parental consent.
 The men must be 21, the girls, i IS, not to bring either their parents in person or written consent. Even with consent, clerks refuse to issue 1 marriage licenses to any one under IS.
 Reno police interrupt about one marriage a week when they appear with telegrams from California cities asking the arrest of a couple either under age or without parental consent. Such arrests usually are followed by the parents acquies- cence, but one ardent swain recently tried three times to get by the watchful clerk with an under-age bride-to-be. They still are not mar ried,

 This hand was played in the Long Island Bridge League tournament a few years ago. North and South won i3 tricks on defense. although de- clarer's four kings were ali located over the corresponding aces.
 South was pr. Henry J. vogel, known as an imaginative player. North was Geoftrey Mott-Smith, one of the leagues national tour nament directors and one of the finest technical men in the game.
 The opening lead of the club five was won by North with the queen. North returned c low heart and South won with the eieht-spot. South led the club jack, merely to clear the suit. but when declarer guessed wrong and played low iron, dummy, the iire- works began.
