Announcement of the 10th annu

Announcement of the 10th annual
World Bridge Olympic has been re-
ceived in Washington. The event
is to be held April II. AS usual, the
committee in charge, Godfrey Mott
Smith, chairman, will soon send out
to its units throughout the world 16
selected bridge hands which have
been carefully chosen, and complete
success will be constituted by max
ing par, which the committee has
fixed, on each of them.
Heretofore, there have been as
many as 40 nations and pricipalities
participating in the contest. This
year. however, 1t is not expected that
there will be more than 20 countries
in which the game will be played,
owing to the war in Europe and in
the Far East and the difficulties of
communicating with other countries
not actually at warfare. The COM
mittee looks for an increased num-
Der of entries from South and Cen
tral American countries.
There will be in all approximately
5000 prizes, to the international
winners, to winners in each coun-
try to winners in each State of the
United States and each province of
Canada and to winners in each
local game.
The American Contract Bridge
League, which now conducts the

Title to two major prizes are par
tlcularly at stake for Washington
bridge players in the Maryland
State championship games to be
held in Baltimore next week end.
They are the open pair match in
two sessions on Saturday and the
team-of-four championship, also in
two sessions, on Sunday.
The open pair contest, which car
ries the Maryland Bridge League

NeWs-Post Trophy, resulted in vic
tory for Gene Herman, Mrs. Irene
Surguy, Oscar j. Brotman and Ar
thur Schlessinger. Although the
the winners are accredited to WASH
ington.
Ever since the Washington and
Baltimore championship games
started several years ago there has
been a spirited rivalry between the
advanced players of both cities, with
the Marylanders winning heavily in
the Washington tournaments and
the players from the Capital gen.
orally getting even with them on
their home grounds. Such was the
case last year, when local players
took the open pair championship
and the team-of- -four championship.
Last fall. however, the Baltimore ex-
perts came to Washington and went
home with several of the principal
prizes.
In addition to the open pair and
the eam-of-four championships
there will be two major events and
a special game. The women's pair
championship will be played in one
session on FRIDAY afternoon for the
Llewellyn w. Lord Trophy, donated
in honor of one of Baltimore most
famous PLAYERS Mrs. Edward Beh-
rend and Mrs. Emil Koether Of Bal
timore won it last year The mixed
pair championship for the Helen
Rockwell Trophy will be played on
Friday evening. It's title is now held
by Mrs. Benjamin Colder and
Charles J. Solomon of Philadelphia
A large delegation Of local players
is listed for the Baltimore event.

opening was an Evans Gambit De-

had to surrender his Queen for a

avoid a dangerous position. Fritz
seized the attack by sacrificing an
additional Pawn but to no avail, for
he could not maintain it.

Hobbies and
Lobbyists
By Edmond Henderer.

People frequently remark. That
must be an interesting hobby, but
I'm afraid it would be too eXpen-
sive for me-" To help clear up mis-
apprehenslons IN this matter, the
price ranges in several popular
model building fields are quoted
here.
To start with, many models today
are built from kits, containing all
or most of the materials necessary
to complete the model. The major
exception to this is in the field of
sailing yachts.
In the model railroad group there
are two types, scale models and So
called tin plate Tin plate is
usually sold already assembled. so
we will disregard it here. In scale
models the most popular for home
use is HO gauge, 3.5-mm. scale. In
this group complete car kits cost
from IS cents to SO, with nothing
additional to buy. Freight cars are
in the lower prices and passenger
cars at the top. Freight car kits
may be had for as little as rs cents,
but these are without trucks, and
sometimes without hardware A
complete car built from such a kit
will cost from so cents to ST. Track
IS usually built up, as real track is
built. and will cost when completed
about 10 cents a foot.
Locomotives are the most eXpen-
sive item. but it must be remem-
bered that they are fine and pre-
else machines, and cannot be
Cheap and still do their job. They
may be had in kits from SIS to
$50. with thoroughly satisfactory
ones available at s25 to $50. In
fact. in locomotives, size rather than
quality determines price and SIS
or $40 will buy good small engine
These locomotives operate on s
volts, d. C. current. and the simplest
and most economical power source
Is power pack" This unit plugs
into the house circuit and supplies
the proper current at the track.
Such a unit will cost from S. to
$3.50. Also circuit breaker should
be used to protect both the power
pack and the locomotive. This will
cost about ST.
