only major racetrack operating on
the West Coast since the outbreak
of war. will remain open unless
closed by some authority" Joseph
Gottstein, president Of the Wash
ington Jockey Club, declared today
after heated conference with Gov.
Arthur B. Langlie.
Langlie had requested the track
operators to end their racing season
as soon as possible in the interest
of the conservation of gasoline and
rubber.
Puts 1t Up to State.
Gottstein retorted that 1T the
State wants to close the track they'll
have to do it" after Langlie rejected
his counter proposal that the season
be cut 40 per cent. with the racing
days reduced from five to three a
week.
Informed OF Gottstein's attitude,
Langlie said: Il advised Mr.. Gott-
stein that as far as was concerned
If I could stop horse racing right
now I would do so.'
Gottstein's legal counsel advised
him against closing the plant volun-
tarily because of commitments which
might lead to damage suits.
Defends His Patriotism.
He said he prided himself on his
patriotism and that Longacres had
contributed to the war effort. He
pointed to the Army Relief Day
Derby August 20, for which 1900
tickets already have been sold.
Longacres, whose season closes on
Labor Day. has enjoyed prosperous
meeting, due largely to the idleness
of the famous Santa Anita and other
California tracks this year. At the
request of the Army. after the war
broke out. these tracks did not open.
Main event of the track, the $40 900
Longacres Mile August 80, has an
impressive list of nominations.

WOMAN,S REALM
GlOJWng Yourself
By Anela HaEs
MIA service staR Writer

NEA Service Stan Writer
 Several women write asking whether a chin strap will "cure" a double chin. The answer is; 1t VIII help, if chosen correctly, but 1t should be used together with some good stretching and chewing exer- cises. That goes for any unlovely throat line.
 If you wish to improve your tnroat's appearance, you might ask the operator who gives you a facial treatment to include a "tie-up." She will adjust it after thoroughly cleansing the face and neck and massaging with emolient cream. You should follow the same routine at home. If you use ready-made chin strap, be sure it is made of bias-cut or elastic material. You might use a towel folded diagonally to make three or four-inch band, which you simply tie comfortably tight. See that the bandage holds the tissues smooth and flat, but do not let 1t distort the face.
 It would be a good idea to use the chin strap at night after you have done these exercises.
 Bend head forward, then back ward until the chin is high in air, the throat stretched, the muscles tensed. Holding them thus, turn head slowly to right, to left, to front again. Relax and repeat six times.
 Now, stand up and push chin as far forward as possible. Keeping this position, move jaws as if chewing but chewing as exaggeratedly as possible, SO that the lower jaw drops down considerably with each chew. Turn head to the right and repeat, then repeat to the left, then back.
 DO IT RIGHT
 TO GET RESULTS
 This regimen will give results, if followed faithfully for some weeks, and if the double chin does not go with very much overweight figure, which of course calls for dieting and general reducing ' exercises.
 And, this regimen has another use, for practically every woman who wants to remain youthful all her life. It is an excellent preven- tive for sagging jowls. The throat more than other features, bears out the axiom about the ounce of pre- vention.

ELECTRIC SHOCK

ELECTRIC SHOCK
 The amount of injury from elec- tric shock (snort of instantaneous death) depends on the voltage and ohmage, on the duration and extent of contact, on the presence of pro- tective or insulating clothing (gloves) and on the degree of dry- ness or wetness of skin or cover ings. If skin or clothing or other coverings which might be protective or insulating happen to be moist or wet passage of the current is fa- cilitated and the chance of shock greater.
 Alternating currents are more dangerous than direct currents. But extremely high voltage is less da1l- gerous than moderately high voltage.S
 Instantaneous death from elec- trio shock is due to sudden ceSsa- tion of respiration or heart beat or both. Whether immediate restora- tive measures, such as artificial respiration, injection of adrenalin or other stimulant into the heart, massage of the heart, can be of any avail depends upon the degree of damage done to vital cells in the nervous system and of course on the promptness with which the restorative effort begins.
 If death is not instantaneous the shock may cause inconsistencies which does not differ from the url- consciousness of ordinary shock from an injury or the unconscious ness of So-called "concussion" (the shock due to injury to the head). Tn less severe electric shock the vic- tim suffers only transitory symp- toms of irritation, and in any case there may be temporary or perma- nent signs of localized paralysis or partial paralysis.
 The effects are the same whether the shock is by lightning or elec- tricity from artificial source.
 Rescue. Remember that damp ness or wetness, of skin, clothing, ground, shoes, gloves greatly in- creases the risk or danger in rescue work. The victim caught by a live wire or other electrified object should be grasped or touched only with dry gloves CT other covering by person standing on dry ground or dry surface, in dry shoes or boots. Children flying kites near lines or wires carrying high voltage electricity have often suffered elec- trick shock trying to disentangle kites from wires, on damp day or when their skin is covered with sweat. Many persons have been electrocuted by reaching up from a bath ot turn on or of an electric lamp with some defect in the fix tIlre.
 First Aid. Immediate prone- pressure artificial respiration should be applied as son as the victim has been rescued, and carried on with- out interruption for not less than two hours, no matter who believes 1t useless.

 Now the book" lead in returning partners suit, from a four-card length, is the lowest card. But, as Murray points out, a low club lead here is not good. Declarer is known to have had four clubs originally. A low club lead would allow declarer to play low, thus forcing West in, and limiting his club losses to two tricks.
