The opening heart lead was won
by West with the ace and The three
OF hearts was returned. Gerst play
ed the Jack, but won the third
round OF hearts with the king. Then
he started the club suit.
There w q very common mistake
made on this type Of hand by o
good many players. They make
what they call "snleLy play
In this case they would play the
nine and duck, then try 10 swing
the ace and king and drop the suit
The correct play Is either TO
swing the ace and king, or 10 be
consistent and let the nine Of clubs
ride, then when you get In q play

"Waterbury's Friendly Department Store"
Casting Bread

Belief and faith in our own principles Of
living and in our business policies are
essential to happiness and success. But
there is a debt we owe to society and to
ourselves. This hectic world in which we
are living could stand little more sin
cerity - greater application of the fun
damentaIs of right and wrong. Someone
has said, "Give the world the best you
have, and the best will come back to YOU
1t is just the old story Of casting bread
upon the waters" It is surprising how
well this works. II is almost the magic
formula for happiness and success.
A practical application of this would be
donating to the present Red Cross Drive.

Musicians Want Rule
Kept on Recordings;
Fear Loss Of Jobs
F.C.C.F Fovors Mechanical
Reproduction as Check
On Chain Systems
By WILLIAM ]. WHEATLEY.

Elimination of the requirement
that radio stations announce the
fact when they are using recordings
would further increase unemploy-
ment among musicians, Samuel T.
Ansell, general counsel of the Amer
ican Federation of Musicians, has
told the Federal Communications
Commission. Members of the F. c.
c. Monopoly Committee are said to
feel that recordings are as good as
live talent broadcasts and are in
clined to encourage their use as a
means of breaking down the chain
systems.
Mr.. Ansell informed the commits
sion that frequency modulation has
resulted in an increased public ap-
probation of high fidelity broadcast
ing, which. he said, increases the
noticeable difference between pro-
grams produced by live talent and
those produced by mechanical re-
production.
Mr.. Ansell charged that there has
been widespread use OF phono-
graph recordings, interspersed with
feigned conversation" with the ar
tist, who is, in fact, not present.
This. he declared. is an attempt to
deceive the listening public. The
public, he said, is entitled to know
when radio stations are assisting in
the maintenance and development
of living artists by using live talent
programs and which are using
canned" programs. Elimination Of
the identifying announcement would
have the tendency to reduce all pro-
grams to the level of the cheapest
and most inferior ones which the
public could be induced to accept,
he declared.
Mr.. Ansell said the finding of the
Monopoly Committee that electrical
transcriptions are comparable in
fidelity to personal presentations
and are technically satisfactory is
not supported by the facts.
The committee saw in the record
ing system a method Of distribution
of nationally known programs to
individual stations for playing at
such time as they wanted them. to
prevent the chains from taking local
station time in the best hours of
the day.
