Cabinet Shower Bath
Made With New Type
Hardboard Panels
Substitute Avoids Use
Of Steel Needed for
Defense Products
By LAWRENCE CROLIUs.

1t hardly seems possible national
defense priorities could affect bath
ing habits, but II you are remodel
ing your old house, or building a
new one, you may find you can't
install one of those cabinet type
shower bath units because OF re-
strictions on steel sheets such as are
used for walls Of the cabinets.
One manufacturer of cabinet
showers already has substituted
side and rear panels made of gyp-
sum hardboard.
These new cabinets still have up
rights made of heavy gauge steel,
finished in black enamel. Since the
steel for these parts is obtained
from the trimmings of larger sheets
they aren't needed in defense pro-
duction.
To provide mirror smooth. water
tight paneling the gypsum sheets
have been finished smooth on both
sides, and have been treated with
special white coating. Instead of
tiAS pOdAlo NlNICOdo CAidlliSl oOSSl
base. a precast stone base weighing
$50 pounds is now being provided.
Thus the cabinet is given strength
and ruggedness. The new showers
are being made in three sizes, 80
inches, 80 inches and 36 inches
square. with a standard height of
IS inches.
The various parts of these shower
cabinets are shipped knock down"
ready for immediate installation.

Washington's organized bridge
players have been engrossed during
the past week in the 18th annual
tournament for District champion
ships, played at the Hotel Shoreham
under auspices of the Washington
Bridge League. 1t is not possible,
however. to recount the results here
at this time One event. the team
of-four match, is being played to-
day.
Whatever the outcome may have
been. it is safe TO say that there
were many slams made which we're
not bid. Otherwise the scores re-
corded would tell a different tale
and there would probably have been
a different set of winners. That IS
true in all games, even with experts,
Sometimes slams are made because
of improper defense and at other
times by a successful fineSs, the
possibility of which is not indicated
in the auction, but the real test Of
skill occurs when the hand which
contains a slam is bid into a slam
contract.
Often when hand is bid merely
to a game contract and slam is
easily made. players will ask one
another how slam contract could
have been reached in the bidding,
1t is well to know.
The hand given here affords an
excellent example. 1t was played
one evening last week before the
tournament began by John A.
Bacon. a newcomer to Washington,
in private game at Falkland
Courts. Mr.. Bacons outline of the
bidding follows:

Hobbies and H0bbvists
News of Activities Here and Nearby
By Edmond Henderer.

Some hobbies enable the lobbyist
to produce useful objects while en-
joying his leisure hours. George B.
Grimm, employe of the United
States States Coast and Geodetic
Survey, who resides at Greenbelt,
Md, exemplifies this type of avoca-
ton.
About two years ago some one
conceived the idea of organizing a
shoe guild at Greenbelt, to produce
and sell handmade shoes. The plan
was not success as business ven-
ture, but a good many people learned
a useful handicraft hobby, Mr..
Grimm being one of the leaders.
The manufacture of these shoes,
as explained by Mr.. Grimm, is most
interesting. A few special tools are
needed "a kit of these for home use
is available commercially and a set
of templates is used for each size
shoe. "a template is a type of pat
tern) Blank leather shapes for each
part of The shoe may also be bought
and are what Mr.. Grimm uses. Buy
ing such a set assures the amateur
shoemaker of getting the right kind
Of leather for each part, cut with
the grain running the correct way.
This is very important, as a shoe
otherwise will not retain its shape
The first step is to punch holes
as indicated by the proper template
in the quarters" the pieces running
from the heel around to the laceS.
These quarters are built up of sew
eral pieces of leather, the number
varying with the type of shoe. The
outer piece is punched from the
template, the others from the first
piece. Care must be taken to punch
all holes at 80 degree to the face
of the leather.
The other two units comprising
the upper portion of the shoe
namely, vamp and tongue-are
treated in the same way. and the
shoe is ready to assemble.
The soles are purchased all shaped
and punched and need only to be
saddle soaped before using. All of
Mr.. Grimm'S shoes are moccasin
type, and the parts are joined by
leather lacings. After assembly the
shoe is placed on a form and the
lacing hammered fiat. The sole
laces, or stitches, are FURNISHED with
a maple burnisher, the whole shoe
is waxed with a special wax and left
on form for "a hours. 1t is then
ready to wear.
Shoes produced in this way have
the following advantages. according
to Mr.. Grimm: They are all leather
and with a little care will last in
definitely. New soles are easily ap-
piled. or rubber soles may be ce-
mented on when the original ones
wear thin. They are so comfortable
that Mr. Grimm practically never
wears any other kind of shoe. If
properly made they are extremely
water resistant.
