By GEORGE TUCKER

NEW YORK. Feb. 22.-SecretS on Broadway travel faster than favcT- ties at Hialeah. l was sitting m the Beachcomber's bar having bcwl of Egg Flower Soup when man known to all Broadway as Dave came by. Dave is the proprietor of Dawes Blue Room, a famous Broadway eating place that failed several mcnths age
 Outside of Lindy's and perhaps enc or two others, none Of the late hour restaurants was as famous or enjoyed the patronage that was Dawes. I never cared much for the place, personally. because it was al ways filled with loud-talking actors. But if you wanted tc see famous people. Dawes was the place.
 They say Dave never refused a meal to anyone They say actors have dined "on the cuff foy months on end against the day their ship or a new job would come in.

Fa- nous song hits had been written on the table covers by Tin Pan Alley chiefs between cups cf black coffee At least one famous star became engaged ever a plate of Canadian bacon and eggs at Dawes. Gang sters were there, too Daves was Broadway

 Dave flung around and leaned over the table. I'm going to open a new restaurant-a swell place on Sand Street-a new Blue Room. But don't say anything about it. Deals all set. I'll announce it in a couple

While most players in Mr.. Gott-
liebs position would have raised their
partners heart bid, he reasoned:
West was unable to make an i'm
mediate overcall after the opening
spade bid. Therefore, his hand
must be weak, so that a game is
unlikely. Now as to Souths bid
ding: That player evidently had a
fairly good hand that almost surely
contained three four-card suits and
a singleton heart. Conversely,
North's hand must be very weak,
for he had first responded with one
no-trump and then reluctantly
taken his partner back to his orig
inal spade suit North should have
passed three clubs).' Furthermore,
North's hand was almost surely
evenly distributed and contained
only three spades. Finally, since
he and his partner were sure to
have the heart suit solid, it would
be an easy matter to force declarers
four-card trump suit.
From these reflections Mr.. Gott-
heb concluded that it was absolute
ly safe to double three spades. The
result proved the logic of his rea-
soning. for all declarer could take
were three trump tricks and his
other three top cards, the penalty
being 500 points.
