Lowest Recorded Temperatures

The lowest recorded natural air
temperature was 80 degrees below
zero (FahrenheiD, recorded at Verk-
hoyansk, in north central Siberia.
Man-made temperatures, however,
far exceed this. An industrial ex-
perimental chamber in New York
has achieved temperatures as low
as $40 degrees below zero, Fahren-
heit. In order to obtain this, it
was necessary to wrap the chamber
in a l2-foot thick blanket of mineral
wool insulation. This blanket, 40
times thicker than the insulation usu-
ally installed in the side walls and
top floor ceilings of ordinary dwell
ings, practically eliminated the pas
sage of heat through the walls OF
the chamber.

ANSWER

At first the pursuing car was one
mile behind, and after travelling a
mile it was only eight-tenths of a
mile behind. This represents a gain
of two-tenths of a mile while going
one mile; it will therefore take five
miles to gain the entire mile.

. MeKENNEY oN BRIDGE
Discard Indicates Declar BY WM. E. MCKINNEY
 America's Card Authority

To be a good defensive player, it is necessary to watch the drop of every card. Remember that 1t Is your job always to tell your part ner as much about your holding as possible. The declarer knows what the adverse high cards are, but the defense must gain this knowledge through the language of cards.
 Here is an interesting defensive hand that I watched in a duplicate game at Asheville, N. O., where the Southern Appalachian Tournament will be held Aug. 23-25. Vests opening lead was won by South with the ace of hearts, the ace and king of diamonds were cashed and Q small diamond tzlimped in dum- my with the ten of spades. De- clarer then proceeded to cash all of his trumps.
 East's first discard was the heart i've and his next the heart nine. Now West realized that South must hold the missing six of hearts, else East wound have discarded it after the five: thus he knew he should throw away his zee Of cilibs and retain the queen of hearts to hold
