Five diamonds would have been a
safer contract, but South was a fine
player whose partner was not par
ticularly skillful, 30 he avoided en-
couraging a diamond contract.
West opened the eight of spades,
East played the king. and South
played low. East returned the jack
of spades. and South won with the
queen. At this point South knew
which opponent held the ace of dia-
monds!
Since West had led the top Of a
worthless suit. East was marked
with five or six spades headed by
king -iack-ten. Surely East would
have bid one spade over North's one
diamond opening if East held the
diamond ace as we'll as such strong
spades. But since East had actually
passed, it was evident that West held
the ace of diamonds.
At the third trick, therefore.
South led the jack of diamonds. and
when West played low. he put up
dummy's king. That held the trick,
and the diamond return cleared the
suit. giving South more than enough
tricks for his contract.

When Count Basic stepped off
the Hiawatha at 7:45 p. m. Mon
day, to fill an engagement at the
Minneapolis Armory, his first in
the Twin Cities, he was met at the
station by the Mayor of Bronze
vile (Jimmie Slemmons) and
Yours Truly, in a 1941 Buick,
loaned to the Mayor by the W. R.
Stephens Co. for the Counts of
fetal car. With him was the one
time st. Paul figure, Baby Bell"
About three thousand people at
tended the dance at the Armory,
sponsored by Levi Garrett and
others, with Larry Hickman as the
publicity manager. The Mayor of
BrOnzville had special table near
the orchestra stand with fifty
guests. The table was decorated
with three bouquets of flowers, the
large center one being donated by
the POsey Flower Shop on Lexing-
ton and University AYES. In a
short interview with the Count
while we were whizzing around
Minneapolis in that fine car, he ex-
pressed his delight for being able
to appear here for the first time
for two engagements. He said
that the Band had been on the
road since January. From here,
they were going to Indiana and
then on east to New York. The
Count was nattily attired in a slate
grey pin stripe suit. He was on
the stand at the piano at 9 p. m.
and stayed there until 1870 a. m.
with only ten-minute intermis-
sion. Manager Evans had to keep
reminding him that it was near
ing the closing time because the
Count was beating out those we'll
known rhythms that he loves to
play. =. Count Basic also told me
that his latest recording was with
the Coleman band and would be
released in a few days. Unlike
most of the celebrities, the Count
is regular. He is more than regu-
lar in Bobby Carlyle's estimation,
too, because on accounta he sent
him an autographed picture of
himself playing at a small white
piano. The picture is now in first
place among BObby's priced pos
sessions. The Mayor of Bronzville
kinda rates high with Bobby, too,
because he brought him from
Nursery School Monday in the Of
fetal Car. -.
Sidelights at the Dance: Kath-
ryn Murphy couldn't sing as
planned because she had a bad
cold. Aida Smith knew one of
the saxophonists because he was
her Kansas City girl friends hub

hat and coat the next day.
Marie Munroe was dressed up in
a black and white outfit and looked
good. Jessie Scott was looking
good in a teal blue suit with a fur
neckpiece and large hat. &.
Hazel Fox was sporting a new
green Easter bonnet. Ruth
Hickman was wearing a tailored
suit with a large red hat, red bag
and a pair of red fox furs. :.
The Bobby Simmons Juniors were
down from Duluth. First time I've
seen Bobby in three years and it
seems that married life is really
agreeing with him. The Mrs. half

very nice way for you to make a
little extra money. When school

have to say to the fellow a few
weeks ago and why did he want to
take her outside to tell her some
thing? What should 1 do?
Ans: The fellow your girl friend
was talking with thought he was
going to make your GAL but he
didn't appeal to her as much as you
do there's nothing to worry
about. The girl probably won't

I suggest that you make some new
friends.

they have not done me any good
so far. Don't you think I better
change?
Ans: thing that the doctor is
trying to tell you that you can't
stop taking your treatments now
you need more shots. If you
stop taking them now, those you
have taken won't help you any. I
suggest you continue taking his
line of treatment for another three
months.

he make me a good husband? I
am anxious to know the truth and
want to know if should keep COM

my company for convenience?
Ans: Handle this fellow tact
fully he is trying to win you

very dear to me, only at times he
is hard to get along with. Please
tell me what is wrong and what
can I do to keep him from getting
that way. We have a nice home
and expect to marry soon. Ad-
wise me, please.

that he is inclined to be JEALOUS.

WASHINGTON, June 4 - IN
- Scores Of Hedging air corps
pilots are being sent to Hawaii
and the Philippines. Il was dis
closed today. for duty with the
rapidly expanding air fleets bas-
ed in the Pacific.
The latest transfer orders pub
lished by the war department
show that some 110 second lieu
tenants who have recently won
their wings have been ordered to
embark for the Pacific outposts
In the next three weeks. The
fliers are from Brooks and KEEL
ly Fields In Texas. and the Ad-
vance Flying School ut Stockton,
Calf.
The number Of these assign
ments was regarded As evidence
that the air squadrons at Ha-
wall and the Philippines have
been heavily reinforced in the
last several months. Some au-
thorities consider IL possible
that the number Of combat craft
now ut Pacific posts runs into
several hundreds.
There has been speculation
that this expansion was prepar-
atory to relieving substantial
units Of the Pacific fleet for
duty in the Atlantic. But mill
tary experts generally discount
this, saying that while aircraft
would be capable Of taking over
some patrol duties from surface
vessels they could not offer the
threat to . potential enemy fleet
which Is offered by the power

duty.
Rather, the strategy which
dictated the creation Of strong

on building up q powerful. CO.

British Moy Withdrew
Completely from Trade
Move Will RsIsess o Dozen
Ships for Convoy Services

y oWASHINGTON, June 4N(R
An agreement for American
merchantmen to take over all
British shipping routes from the
United States and Canada to
Australia and New Zealand was
regarded here today as the prob
able forerunner of q complete
British withdrawal from mari
time activities outside the war
zone.
Such q withdrawal, with Unit
ed States vessels taking over the
abandoned routes, long has been
considered likely, but the first
formal action did not come un-
til late yesterday.
In q brief formal announce
ment, the maritime commission
reported the agreement and said
that q dozen British vessels
would be released for Great Bri-
tain's war effort. .---'--
ACUTE NEED SEEN
The agreement was interpret
ed in some official circles here
as further evidence of Britain's
acute need for cargo tonnage in
the battle Of her ocean life
lines. The expectation was that
British ensign ships in the South
American trade would soon fol-
low.
The maritime commission
announcement capped a day that
saw various aspects of Britain's
lifeline battle figure prominent
ly in capital developments.
One provocative disclosure
was that "a number" of the
commissions new cargo vessels
had already been converted into
aircraft carriers. John j. Demp-
sey, q member of the commits
sion, gave the information to a
Senate committee investigating
the defense program.
He also said that merchant
ship deliveries were expected to
reach the one-a-day rate by Nov
ember. He gave the number
of vessels now under construc-
ton % TAG.
SHIPS CONVERTED
Dempsey's testimony contain
Cd the first official indication
that work on converted carriers
had been completed or that sew
eral ships were involved. Previ-
Gus information was merely to
the effect that conversion work
was proceeding on one or two
ships as q Navy experiment.
Small airplane carriers travel
ing with conveys have. been
