Among the many high lights of
the show were Mr.. Swantesen's op-
Grafton of his steam powered Queen
Mary; operation of a 3. Inch to
the foot scale model of a Fairform
Flyer powered with a four cylinder
gasoline motor and built by A. F.
E. Lucas; and running of a steam
driven, all-metal model of Balti-
more harbor tug built by Roy Buress
of Baltimore.
One of the most interesting ex-
hibits was loaned by G. w. ForSberg.
1t is a model of an old wood burning
LOGON otive from the Chesapeake
Beach Railroad. Built to a scale in
the neighbOrhOod of q inch to the
foot this is very complete working
model. 1t has two old-time dump
cars attached and runs on q track
about 3iz inches wide.
There were so many fine models
that it would be impossible to de-
scribe them all. A few of the more
outstanding were: O-gauge work.
traincarS by I. N. Goodwin; HO-
gauge clearance car by A. c. Platz;
several HO railroad models by Oh.
Bos'n J. D. Wilson; coal mine, rail-
road station and trackSide buildings,
scale 3.5 nm to the foot, built by
James r. Passeno; Emil Press
u Inch scale house models, pat
termed after residence of friends:
l-inch scale model of a Grumman
F3F2 with all controls complete and
working from the cockpit, built by
Walter L. Finn; the list could 90
on and on, but space calls a halt.
Possibly the personalities en-
countered during the 10 days OF the
show are even more interesting
than the exhibits. Some of them
will be mentioned next week.

At the annual meeting OF the
Washington Bridge League held at
the Shoreham Hotel last week, p. E.
Henninger was chosen president for
the coming year. Mr.. Henninger Is
4 prominent patent attorney and
has taken an active part in the
affairs Of the league since its organ
ization 10 years ago. He has fire.
quently represented Washington at
the leading tournaments throughout
the East and has often been q WIN
ner in the important contests. Last
year Mr.. Henninger conducted the
annual tournament of the league in
Washington and brought 1t to out
standing success. He succeeds as
president Tom Hamlin who was not
= candidate for reelection.
DR.. N. J. McHugh. another we'll
known performer, was elected vice
president and ]. T. Onley and Paul
E. Golden were again chosen as
treasurer and secretary, respectively.
Tom Hamlin, Gene Hermann and
DR.. McHugh were named as men,
bers Of the Executive Committee to
serve for two years and Mrs. d. E.
Stephan was also made q member
to serve out the unexpired term of
s. G. Churchill who has removed to
New York.
The question OF holding q tourna-
ment this fall was briefly discussed
but no decision was reached on the
matter. There Is some possibility
that 1t may be Cancelled for this
year because Of war conditions. War
activities have brought into Wash
ington 4 large number Of bridge
players, but the same cause has
taken away many others who have
been active In the organization. The
necessity Of obtaining hotel accom-
mOdatiOns for four days event is
also q difficulty which the league
will have to Consider, and for that
reason 1t has been deemed advisable
to give thought to the subpect at
this time, several months in advance
OF the usual date.
The Federal Bridge League held
the first Of its three divisional play
OF games last Tuesday at the Ward
man Park Hotel. The various
teams were assigned to the three
sections where their ratings for
the past season placed them, and

each section at the close of the
hree-event series.
At the game on Tuesday night

15lz boards out of "A. w. w. Bar
ron and G. F. Kneip of the Justice
team were high pair north and

North was dealer, and neither side
was vulnerable. There had been
three passes up to West, who called
one club. North then bid one
heart, East one spade, South two
hearts, West two spades and North
three hearts. AS East, OF course,
saw sfterward she should have
bid three spades, and West would
have carried on to four. He had
opened fourth hand and had three
high card tricks while East had
two. North had passed originally.
The hand actually makes five spades,
as the heart king is on the right
side of the ace. North and South
can make only their two major suit
aces.
Shame on any player who would
not bid three spades on this hand
and permit partner to go to four.

The battle last night opened

the cage title of the Senior High
The teams reached the finals by
eliminating other contenders in
playoffs last week.
The scrap between the Miners
and Gardeners was even closer
than the score indicates, although
the defending champs led all the
way.
The victors were paced by
LySle McCoWn in the scoring de-
partment. He racked up IA
points. A great deal of credit
for these points should go to the
team as whole, especially to
George Barber. McCown's team
mates kept feeding the ball to
him under the basket time after
time.
Knowles and Barber played in
great style, as did Roberts on
the defense.
The losers were led by Harold
Haskins and Lou Smith, who
paced the offense and defense.
Haskins continued to play the
brand of ball that won for him
the plaudits of the spectators
during the preliminary playoffs
last week.
The Gardeners never gave up
in the face of more experienced
opposition and were in there
fighting right down to the last
whistle.
In preliminary game, the
Girards won from the Thompsons.
