open pair event.
Crawford is often referred to
as "the daring young man on the
flying trapeze." His bidding Is
so bold that even the old mas
terminus cannot see through his
tactics. His play is marked with
match point precision.
Here is a hand he remembers
as one of his most interesting in
l941. East led three rounds OF
hearts, the third being ruffed by
Crawford (North). The jack OF
spades was led and won the
trick. When West showed out, it
looked as thong Crawford
would have to lose trump trick
and probably club. OF course
the queen of clubs might drop
doubleton. He saw one other
chance besides this, which was
TO catch the king of trumps by
the very rare end-play known as
the smother.
Another trump lead was won
by the queen. Then the top dia-
monds were cashed, and dummy
led the fourth heart for Craw-
ford to ruff. The top clubs were
cashed. When the queen failed to
drop, Crawford led tire third club
and West was forced in.
For the last two cards West
had two diamonds, North and
East each held two trumps, and
dummy had the spade ace and
club jack. West had to lead a
diamond, and now there was nc
way for East to save his king OF
spades.

1t also is quite possible that
Miss Muir's conscience was both

a little better, though, when her
salary was upped to S125 week
and still better when Critic
George Jean Nathan flatly de-
clared that her work in "Desir-
able" was 1.-The best straight
acting performance of 1884"
BY this time, of course, the
studio knew that it had a good
actress, but it also had to do
something about discipline. So
Jean Muir went into B-picture
leads. She accepted the rebuff
and worked harder than ever,
even managing to organize lit
tie theater here. Somehow
though, she didn't seem to be
able to square herself and beat
back to worthwhile screen roles
so in 1897 she quit and returned
to the stage.

also brought a number of even

about them because they were
of flowing, Grecian cut. Miss
Muir started a campaign of her
own to do away with girdles
and other restricting undergar-
ments and to revert to the casual
kimonas sponsored by the cou-
touriers of ancient Athens. Even
if the idea didn't catch on, the
upstart actress got a lot of at
tention because of it.
Another incident of her first
weeks here was her refusal of
role. She wandered into the Of

BY JAMES E. HILBERT

This is a book to make you
weep for the past stupidities of
our side-and to give you a new
hope for a complete victory that
may come much sooner than any
one expects it to.
Defense Will Not Win the
War" Lieut.-Col. w. F. Kern
an is positive of that and makes
an exciting, damning case in his
book under that title Little,
Brown: $1.50).
This active officer in the AM
erican Army sets out to show
that defense never did win wars.
And he has history on his side
all the way back to the Romans.
Now he tells us we cannot
win without risk and real sacri-
flee; he even tells us that we cam
not win by producing flood OF
arms that will save our fighting
allies from defeat. He declares
we must seek out the enemy's
masses and attack them. He
holds that stratagenl is the real
key to Hitler's successes and the
one move on our part that Hit
Ter has always weared and tried
to guard against.
Colonel Kernan's ideas in
many respects are much the
same as those expressed by the
President, Secretary Stimsoi. and
others recently, but they are
much more specific. He warns
that time is short, that this Of
fensive must be undertaken just
as quickly as it can possibly be
organized. That it must catch
Hitler while he Is still engaged
in Russia and when his most vui-
nerable spot Is still open TO
attack.
That spot, says Colonel Kern
an, is Italy. He thin.s q smart,

astic Nazi ally would put us in

HOLLYWOOD, M a C n 10
Back in Movietown, and even at
the same studio where she once
was a sort of pleasant irritant,
Miss Jean Muir has resumed her
screen career-but not quite
where she dropped it nearly five
years ago.
The actress is still outspoken,
but she seems to have tempered
her opinions somewhat. She's
still independent but no longer
eccentric. And also, instead of
taking leading roles in B pic
lures, to which she had been sent
for discipline, she now is APP
pearing in THE Constant
Nymph" in the distinguished
company of Charles Boyer and
Joan Fontaine, and under Ed
mund Goulding's direction.
Miss Muir likes to think that
Hollywood has changed, and
doubtless that's true. But Miss
Muir also has changed, although
the flicker colony never was
quite aware that part of her ear
ly attitudes were feigned. When
she came her in 1888 on a SEQ
a-week contract with Warmers,
she had no idea Of lasting longer
than the initial six months OPP
ton period. So she decided to
spend that time on a campaign
of personal showmanship; she
would attract attention in the
Katharine Hepburn manner, and
the resulting publicity doubtless
would further her career as soon
as the studio fired her and she
returned to Broadway.

Americans have had some funny
deos. They would go around soyin9
1.-THE bigger they come the harder they
foil" at the same time they we're tell
ina each other that America couldn't
be licked because she was too big and
powerful, thot man for man the JoPs
didn't have q chance because they
we're small and Americans were. big
guys.
They would declare thot America
never could lose war because Amer-
ca never had lost war. Of course they
didn't mention the foct that japan
oIso was an indicated champ. And
they forgot Japan never had been in
voded, which is more than can be said
for the United Stotes.
These iIusory ideas and pot prot
inas have now been pretty we'll dis
obused. Let's hope we haven't lost them
too Iote. We should have lost them q
long time ogo.
Writing in the current Infantry
Journal, Moi. Harold Doud, U. S. A..
tells of the training that has made the
japanese such tough soldiers. Major
Doud spent six months in l934-35 as
q guest officer Of the second company,
seventh regular nfontry Of the imper-
ioI japanese army. That autumn the
company held it's dog doys' training"
Quoting from Major Douds ortioIe:
1.-THE l2-doy autumn exercises we're
divided into three four-doy exercises
One day we marched 81 miles.
Twice the troop went three days and
two nights without sleep except what
could be snotehed during lO-minute
hoIts and brief luls in the situation.
"The last four-doy period was the
most strenuous. We started out at 5
in the morning and marched almost
continuously until 10 the next morn
ing. In that time we covered So miles.
The some night everyone was occupied
with outpost duty and potroI.
why not let some Of h m
sIeep?' asked the ooptoin. oh, no.,
he said. Thot is not necessary. They
already know how to sleep. They need
troininq in how to stoy awake"
These tough little yellow men we're
even then getting ready to fight us fat
and sassy Americans. While we we're
calling them soft touches, they we're
driving to make themselves so hard
that in due time we would turn out to
be the soft touches.
Major Doud saw the Jops touehen-
ing up in l934-35. The question can
fairly be asked: hos his story been told
before? If not, why not? The Infantry
Journal might have rendered serv-
ice to the Army and to the nation by
carrying this story in every issue Of
the post seven or eight years.
The bigger they come the harder
they foil.

Yesterday ! spoke Of the
popularity of Gin Rummy and
explained the general character
Of all Rummy games. Today I
will tell you how Gin Rummy Is
played.
The game has two players.
Some groups play ur-handed
or partnership game-which Is
actually two two-handed games
as I will explain later. The full
bridge pack of So cards is used.
The cards in each suit rank as in
bridge, except that the ace
ranks below the deuce.
Ten cards are dealt to each
player, one at time, and the re-
mainder Of the pack is left face
down in the center Of the table.
This packet is called the stock.
To commence play, the top card
of the stock is turned face up and
placed beside the stock, to mark
a second pile called the talon.
The dealers opponent has the
right to take the first talon card
If he wishes. If he says mo" or
pass" the dealer then may
take this card If he wishes.
If both players reject this card,
the non-dealer takes the top
card of the stock and places it
in his hand without exposing it,
and then discards any card from
his hand face up on the talon.
He can, If he chooses, discard
the card just picked up from the
stock.
The play continues in the
same way. Each player alter
nately takes one card into his
hand, either the top talon card
if he likes il or the top card of
Of the stock. Then he reduces his
hand again to 10 cards by dis
carding one card onto the top Of
the talon.
If the entire stock is exhaust
ed and neither player "goes
down" to end the game, then the
talon is turned over, without
shuffling, to serve as a new stock
and play continues.
The object of play, as I ex-
planned yesterday, is to form the
hand into sets, each of three or
more cards. II all 10 cards are in
cluded in sets, the hand Is "com-
plete." Here is an example Of q
complete hand: three jacks, three
tens, and the ace-two-three-four
of hearts.
1t is not necessary to complete
the hand before going down. At
any time that his odd cards total
10 points or less, the player may
lay his hand face up on the
table and so end the play. When
and whether to 60 down Is q mat
ter of judgment, for the player
will lose points II his odd cards
total more than the opponents
odd cards.
When one player goes down,
the other has the privilege Of
playing his odd cards on the sets
of the down player, If he can.
Thus, a fivespot can be played on
three fives; the seven of clubs
can be added to sequence Of
eight-nine-ten of clubs. This
privilege has to be kept in mind
when q player considers going
down.
