New york, April ~ The war

about the elimination Of plnbali ma

successful campaign smashing the

The drive reached its climax
when I'VE tons Of scrap metal from

spread 10 New Jersey where Prose-
clltor william A. Wachenfeld OF E's-
sex County has ordered al pinball
machines seized and lfnpounded,
and to Pennsylvania whore O drive
IN McKeesport has gained court
backing.
Authorities IN many lnunicipalt-
ties recognize that pinhall, machines
are frequently used hArnalessly BY
adults, but they object TO their use
by children and adolescentS who
may use lunch and schools money
IN gambling for prizes. In New
York City afildavits submitted by
school principals were q decisive
factor In persuading the courts 70
outlaw the machines.
The star witness IN New York
City'S campaign against the pinbau
machines was d 16-year-old boy who
swore In an affldavit that he had
spent the greater part Of forty days
while absent from school playing
machines In stationery and candy
stores near his school, remaining
often until and 2 O. m.
The Superior Court Of Pennsyl-
vania, an appellate court, recently
echoed decisions OF New York and
New Jersey courts and held that
pinball machines are gambling ma"
chimes and that police officers are
authorized to seize them under an
oct Of Assembly.
Alleged substitutes for pinball
machines are already springing UP
In Eastern cities but are meeting
with the determined opposition Of
the police. New York's police exc

Professor Frederic M. Thrasher OF
New York University, author Of the
famous Chicago study, THE Gang.
In commenting on the pinball drive,
said:
'"The outlawing Of pinball ma"
chimes and other gambling de.
vices which may be demoralizing
to youth Is only the 1irst step Ia
combating delinquency. A com"
munIty which goes no further
than the suppression Of demon
alizing influences Is still guilty
Of neglect until IL develops O posi-
tive program to encourage or es-
tablish wholesome recreation
which will interest and occupy the

The best answer to pinball is
baseball. The best answer to any
undesirable pleasure Is the "Y",

BY WILLIAM E. MCKINNEY Amerlca's Card Authority

From his experience as a teacher, Charles H. Goren has developed some general principles of hand valuation, such as An opening bid facing an opening bid usually pro- duces a gaine.' This is one of the principles discussed in his new book Better Bridge for Better Players . which is primarily @ book about the play of the cards but includes a chapter on bidding tactics.
 Today,s hand is cited by Goren and he gives the bidding as 1t actually occurred. The spade open ing lead established the suit for the defenders, but they could win only three spades and the ace of hearts. Who was to blame for missing the game?
 Goren puts the blame on North. The moment South opened the bidding, North should have decided, because he himself held an opening bid, to go to game.
 The only question was as to the suit or no trump, and that was set tied by Souths bid of one no trump. North should have jumped to three. South was right in passing after North bid only two.
 While I agree that North-South ought to be in three no trrmps, I want to point out that they are a Little lucky to make 1t. If West had i've spades. the spade opening would defeat contract. And as the cards lie, q diamond lead would up- ~eA ks-@ s~-s.@ss-A 4

 when you have decided whether to use drawn curtains or strips, take Q long. careful look around your room. If the windows are irregular in siac, and seem to have been thrown at tho room with no regard for the shape of the walls, it is far safer to use N material for your draperies which does not contrast too boldly with tho color you have used as your background,
 Often it is possible to hang c Venetian blind painted the color Of your wall on one or two odd win- dows, and the gay material you have yearned for on the most con. spleuous one, pretending tho queer ones don't exist, You thereby call attention to the one you like, and mute tho others,
 Next consider the shape and mass of the draperles: are you go. ing to use Q valancep Ia lt better Co hang them from ceiling to floor or cut them oR at the sllle Do you need c mass of material At one side of the window or equal amounts on both sides Arc you hanging the drapegies over part of tho glass and the trim, or over the trim and the plaster next to itq
 Take A yardstiek and measure your walls and the windows; then draw to scale the elevation Of the entire wall space, Perfect draperies are a part of the architecture of the room, not merely cloth hung up around the windows, Every room presents Q different problem, So, when you have your drawing, sketch in Nll possible solutions, then put into work the ono you like the best,

 However, # you have decided tt use the strip kind of drapery, you don't need any track at all, A piece of wood as long as the curtain Is wide, nailed to the plaster to sus- pend the curtain, will do very well

chicken. When you broii or roast your chicken, try basting 1t with Q sauce made of butter or chicken fat, Paragon type vinegar, salt and black pepper. It's . new flavor and one to be remembered.
 Some day, when you have . thick slice of ham, we have q suggestion for you, This is . recipe we love and everybody who has tried 1t praises it.
 This is simple and it's the old New England twist. Put your thick slice of ham in a stew pan; cover with a sauce that you make this way: 2is tablespoons vinegar; iis teaspoon mustard; 2 tablespoons butter; & cup maple syrup. Cover and bake $ hour in a moderate oven. Serve with mashed potatoes and steamed spinach.
 How about taking . good old New England standby favorite--Mince- meat--and preparing 1t with a new twist? And varying your potato angles too? This Is fine with c vegetable dinner because the Mince- meat is hearty and filling.
 Turn Overs - New England
 This recipe really goes Q long way to prove that imagination plays a huge part in the planning of something . ''little different" for a meal. Tho main idea these days is not necessarily to change an or- dinarily "every-day" food into something camouflaged and unnat- ural, but simply to use several foods together that blend we'll and to create fine new dish that ape peals to your familI This recipe does just that.
 Combine some well seasoned mashed potatoes with some celery salt and minced parsley and grated onion, some four @ tablespoons to 3 cups of mashed potatoes) and an egg yolk. Roll 1t all one inch and half thick. Be sure to add . little warm milk to the mashed potatoes as you're mashing them. Cut them into rounds and place heaping tea spoons of minced meat on each round and fold them over like turn. overs. Fry them in deep hot fat. Dust with coarse fried bread crumbs and serve with pepper relish.
