Most of the local bridge organ
izations that have been conducting
seasonal series of pair and team
games concluded the first half of
their events last week and will be
in recess until after the beginning
of the new year. Nearly all du-
plicate activities also will be sus-
pended during the holidays, but both
forms of the game will start afresh
following January /.
A close and exciting contest
marked the end of the first half
of the National Press Club season
series on Monday night. Not only
regular prizes were at stake but
also the awards for the highest ag-
gregate scores made in the six
games that have been played
When the contest started Karl W.
Greene. who was the only player
to have won two of the biweekly
matches, was in the lead. closely
followed by DR.. A. F. ODonnell
and Charles E. Stewart, respectively
Only a narrow margin separated
their percentages. Playing with
Shipley Brashears as his partner
DR.. ODonnell succeeded in over
coming Mr.. Greene's lead and won
with a general average of 63.18 per
cent. Mr.. Greene dropped to second
place with a percentage Of 6l09,
while MIR. Stewart remained in
third place with 1882 The high
est score for any single night was
made by Allyn Walters and Rob-
ert Lambert, who had a 70.45 per
cent game. Thirty-one players were
entered in the contest on the mems
side and 80 on the women's side.
Mrs. Paul E. Golden had top ag-
gregate score for the half season
series among the women. Her aver
age was 5557. but she was barred
from receiving the award under the
membership rule. Mrs. Jane Rosen-
haupt and Mrs. L. Dalberg were
second with a score of 81 go each,
but they were likewise barred un-
der the rule that required that they
should have PLAYED with at least
two different partners. Mrs. Rosen-
haupt and Mrs. Dalberg had played
together as partners throughout the
series.
Accordingly, the prize went to
Mrs. Jean Henry, whose average
was 5461. Mrs. Dorothy Whitcomb
was accredited with being the run
nerup with a total Of 5043, al
though there were three players in
Guiding the winner whose percent
ages were higher. The highest per-
centage in single nights play was
made by Mrs. Helen Glasscott with
a score of 6325. Karl w. Greene
ives then her partner
The second half of the Press Club
series will begin on January S, with
pair games on alternatae Monday
evenings thereafter until the close of
the season in May They will be
followed by the major prize events.
Timing is the rock upon which
manv a well-conceived contract is
wrecked. Properly executed, how
ever, 1t becomes powerful factor
in achieving success, as was illus

THE PU BLIC
PULSE OF
TODD EXPLAINS CPS.
BUILDING PROGRAM

Editor The Times: Much in
terest was manifested by the
public in the mention of the
College of Puget Sound as a
beneficiary in the will of the late
f. s. Collins of Portland, Ore.
who had been a trustee of the
college for 40 years. Mr. Collins
left a large estate in various
forms of property in several
states. II is evident, therefore,
that the payment of that be-
quest. whatever the amount may
be, will be deferred.
II is of interest also that Mr..
Collins wrote the college last
fall, saying that he was ready
to erect a library building and
was prepared to pay for il as
the builders contract specified
This pledge was made the occa-
sion of starting a movement in
October last to raise an addition
al S150,000 for the erection of
student union building. the sec
ond unit of the womens resi-
dence hall. equip and furnish the
three buildings. and improve the
campus about them.
1t is apparent that the pay
ment of this pledge is involved
In the settlement of the estate,
therefore making the date of
payment somewhat uncertain.
Studies of the library building
have been prepared, but the
drafting of plans will be defer
red until some settlement is
made with the estate. Studies
of the second unit of the resi-
dence hall for women have also
been made. The detailed plans
and specifications will be drawn
whenever the funds to erect that
unit are in sight.
The plans and specifications
for the student union building
are being completed. Most of the
funds required for it are in sight
and the college expects to call
for bids for its erection in
short time. The improvement of
the campus is not only desirable
but essential for the public
good These improvements will
go forward just as rapidly as the
friends of the college furnish
funds. The college has followed
the policy Of doing things well
and paying the bills. That is
one reason for its favorable ac-
ceptance in academic and finan-
cial circles. II is not ready 10
abandon that policy and the
search for funds for these OBJ
jectives will be pushed steadily
until they are in hand and the
work is completed.

through the efforts of too few
people. The very fact that a
city of 10000 has a symphony

but that 1t should have an excel

meager budget. Some self-deny-
ing Tacoma civic leaders have
made this fine organization pos
sible. They have done all they
can, but the Philharmonic. like
the city itself, is in need of ex-
pansion.
Tacoma can use several more
concerts per season: the con-

public want them. 1t is COM

bonds. Thus they will compete
with the banks, now loaded up
with "federals," and prevent in
flationary twitches.
The u. S. Chamber of Com
merce recently adopted a reso-
luton against anti-strike legis-
lation. White House friends
threw up their hats and hands
in welcome to this support from
an unexpected quarter.
The White House crowd again
was mistaken. The c of c does
have a distinct prejudice against
stoppage of work because of
strikes. It's board of directors

and the CLIO for several years.
Its clients have suffered severely
because of strikes called in the
midst of national defense work.
The reason for the chambers
anti-strike resolution was purely
selfish. II was move in de-
Tense of capital rather than of
labor.
The chambers inside strate-
gists pointed out that if the gov
eminent clamped down on la Dor,
it would furnish precedent for
regulating capital-prices, prior
tiles. etc. So the United States
Chamber OF Commerce. perhaps
for the first time in its history,
went to the bat for labor.

HOROSCOPE
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 9

This Is not an important day
in planetary direction. Bad news
may disturb the early morning,
but trade should be brisk during
the business period. Labor is
under n good sign.
Heart and Home: This is
day for routine duties which
prepare for enlarged RESPONSE
bilities. In the changed world,
after the second World war,
women will carry economic bur-
dens even more generally than
became necessary after the first
great conflict. The number who
have financial security and the
privilege of taking life as a play
day will be small, for we are in
the midst of social and finan-
cial revolution more far-resching
and radical than any in history.
Business Affairs: Prosperity
will be widely enjoyed, but II
should be accepted by wage
earners as an opportunity to pre-
pare for inevitable depression
even panic-after peace has been
attained in a wsr-stricken world.
The stars presage much extrava-
gance and generous spending for
a number of months. They warn
that there will be a feverish and
costly pursuit of pleasure, but
there must be the inevitable pay
day for all nations. Americans
will have tremendous bills and
as the nation pays staggering
debts no citizen can escape a
share of the enormous contribu-
tons which are necessary.
National Issues: Aid for Brit
ain necessarily will make more
and more pressing demands upon
the United States. The stars pre-
sage tircless efforts on the part
of subversive interests TO loosen
the ties that hold together the
two great English-speaking peo-
Piles.
International Affairs: Eco
nomic warfare directed against
the United States will cause
more serious losses to our COM
merce. but the victory inevitably
must oe ours. The agricultural
and mineral wealth of the United
States will be developed and mo-
bolized IN coming months in a
manner which demonstrates the
resources of the country and the
resourcefulness of its people.
Through many difficulties and
tribulations the nation is TO
build up new phase Of inde-
pendence in which il will be
recognized as the foremost of
world powers.
Persons whose birthdate il is
have the augury Of year of
diverse experiences. Sudden
changes and obstacles may be
trying. but good fortune should
prevail.
Children born on this day will
have keen. inquiring minds and
fine talents. They will be strong
~ individual and exceedingly
successful.
