Take Ny Word for 1t
BY FRANK COLBY.

Your Again
Bridgeport: Is there a law that
compels broadcasters to mispro-
nounce YOUR and YOU'RE as
"yore"? A rhymogram is strongly
indicated at this point.-M. D. T.
Answer-You are correct. "Yore"
is one Of the most prevalent mis-
uses on the radio.
Rhym-o-Grom
Hark to the glib announcer on
The serials each day:
Hear him exhorting beauty seeking
10 try "TEEZ Flakes" the laundry
soap
That chases CRIME away
He pleads with them until his eyes
are swimmin':
Refrain.
'Yore slips. yore shirts,
Yore gowns, yore skirts,
Yore negliges, yore undies.
Evening star., 1942-01-02

that the pronunciation Of YOUR
and YOU'RE IL shown to rhyme
with boor, moor, poor ana tour,
thus: YOOR.

Answer-Redouble. This peculiar
bid should be used only with an
expert partner. He will remember
that you have bid spades and
jumped in hearts, hence cannot
really want to play at diamonds.
He will therefore realize that you
are trying to show complete control
of diamonds by your redouble.
Score 100 per cent for redouble,
80 per cent for five hearts, go per
cent for five spades, so per cent
for six hearts.
Question No. $50.
Today you hold the same hand.

10 IA 20 81
~ Pass Pass Pass
West opened the jack Of clubs,
East played the king, and Mr..
Shields, sitting South, dropped the
queen without q moments hesita-
ton.
The effect Of this gem Of decep-
ton depended in part on the abb
sense of any trace Of hesitation, for
II East had suspected South OF
possessing another club he would
have continued the suit. But MT.
Shields had been more or less pre-
pared for such a play during the
bidding.
North's first raise indicated fair
strength somewhere in the hand. 1t
couldn't be in hearts. since South
held all the tops himself. 1t couldn't
be in spades, for West had bid that
suit, and South had two honors.
When East bid clubs, it became
clear that North had something IN
diamonds. That would be all right
II North had only two clubs or
three clubs to a high honor, but
otherwise South had to fear the loss
OF two clubs, a club run and the
spade ace. All of this went through
his mind as he decided to bid four
hearts. The result Of this fore
thought was that he was able to
make his deceptive play at the first
trick without any apparent thought.
East naturally expected his part
ner to hold the missing two clubs
and therefore dared not lay down
the club ace. That would, East
thought, permit South to ruff, set
ting up dummy's ten Of clubs for a
discard. Hence East shifted to the
nine of spades.
The rest was easy. West could
take the spade ace, but then South
was sure to regain the lead to draw
trumps and discard the low clubs
on dummys high diamonds. Mr..
Shields made an overtrick instead
of being set one trick!

sPHELERs BECOMING SCARCE


 In the infancy of the radio in. dustry it was considered Q wise crack par excellence when someone, wishing to squelch heckler, gave out with: May oil your children be radio announcers." Today when these words are spoken, lt is with reverence and wishful thinking, for the position of Q radio announcer k considered most desirable. Through. out the nation, in radio stations in- terllnklng one community with an- other, young men train themselves to be ready when c key network calls for voices to present the Inul- titudinouS facts and fancles which make radio the fascinating business it Is. Recently the BLUE network found itself with three openings and dispatched Q wire to It's affiliated stations offering the local mikemen the opportunity to apply for the lucrative positions. The openings came as the result of the draft, and there will be more and more as the call goes out for on increased num- ber of Army inducteeS, Close to fifty applications have been received 90 for, and in oil eases the local Sta- ton managers responded with gen" erous recommendations for their men, protesting thelr willingness to part with them % that they may have Q chance on the "blg tiine."

offers opportunities in many fields
for qualified men over the draft
age.
All too few Negroes nave taken
advantages of this opportunity to

time better their own conditions
officials identified with various de-
partmentS believe.
Established by Executive Order
as of February &c. the corps is a
branch of the war department, I'M
der the supervision and direction
of the secretary of war.
TO SUPPLY ALL BRANCHES
1t will supply all branches of the
army and other agencies of the
war department with professional
scientific, technical and admins
trative personnel.
The corps is open to all citizens
of the United States whose educa-
ton, training, experience and gen.
eral fitness to fill the positions
will be the basis Of selection. Phys
ical qualifications are secondary to
the ability to perform the desig-
mated tasks.

There will be two classes of per-

with officers and enlisted men OF
the army. They are to be known as
officers and specialists. In other
words, their titles will be the same
as those for corresponding rank in
the army up to that OF colonel.
SIMILAR UNIFORMS
The members of the corps will
wear q uniform practically the same
as that of officers and enlisted men
of the army. Both uniforms and
insignia will be distinctive so tina
members Of the corps will be readi

pay is based upon the Civil Servic
Classification act and will, in gen.

ATLANTA, Ga.-tSNS)-
Mrs. Dorothy Jackson, of TIL

complaint at the Police Station
Tuesday against a street car motor

Il transferred from the White

work, then make your arrange
ments to enter night school.
Unhappy-Life in my home is
unbearable at times. NV husband
works and makes good but he
wont let me run the house like I
want to. If my husband wants
fish for supper and if I want
bacon and eggs, we eat fish. IF he
wants to go to see Myrna 10y and
I want to see Gable, We see Myrna
10y. We have been married five
years and I wonder if he is the
right one for me?
Ans: Admitting your likes and
disiikeS SO freely before your
husband is one sure way of
losing him. He would like to
feel that you love him SO de-
votedly that you would want
to do the same things that
he does, and enjoy the forms
of entertainment that he likes
best. You can't drive him and
make him do the things you
like. but you could lead
him to do almost anything you
want. Feed him according to
his particular taste and have
nothing to say about it.
c0Odle him instead of arguing
and you can wrap this old boy
around your finger.
