WHAT IS APPROPRIATED
Biggest Ioophole in censor

that any information coming
from O governmental "oppro-
priote authority" Is okoy.
Whot this boiIs down to is the
foot that there is voluntary
censorship on the port Of the
government, too. Office of
Censorship hos no control over
what other departments of the
government give out for pub
LECTION or hroodeostine. These
other departments con call up
Censorship ond ask for odvice,
but thot's as far US it goes.
Consequently. when on "op-
Propriote authority" issues
news. oil the Office Of Censor
ship con do is give q clean bill
Of health to anyone who uses
this information, even if it
contoins miIitoy secrets.
There is no list Of "opropri-
ote authorities" An Army

any government department is
an appropriate authority. Any
skunk wanting to beat censor
ship could probably save his
own skin by pulling some op-
Propriote authority out from

and getting this op. outh. to

BY PAUL HARRISON

HOLLYWOOD, March 16-By
this time, maybe, the movie
makers have got around to real
izing that Airline Judge really
wants to work.
Not that it will do 'em any
good, since Miss Judge already
is working. But most producers
took a long time believing that
dramatic ambition still smold-
cred among the sultry charms
of the black haired little actress
who quit pictures more than five
years ago at the insistence of a
brand-new husband.
Even though the marriage did
not work out very we'll, word
got around that Millionaire Dan
Topping (now Sonia Henie's
husband) was paying his ex-
wife $1,000 month. Such an
income, together with what she
must have salvaged from her
prosperous movie career and a
previous divorce, seemed to pre-
clude in Hollywood's mind any
likelihood that Miss Judge
wanted to toll seriously.
Doubtlessly she doesn't have to
work, but it's almost certain
Topping isn't paying such fancy
alimony as $4,000 a year. All l
know is that when l had lunch
with her she was wearing sable
scarf that must have been six
months old, and an aqua-marine
ring no larger than boxing
glove, and that she mentioned
giving up her claim to a very ex-
pensive automobile ordered be-
tore the big freeze.

One OF the great joys OF
reading is discovery, and one of
the pleasures of discovery is its
retailing far and wide. Frank
lin Street" by Philip Goodman
(Knopf: $2:75) is a discovery in
reading, q book upon whose like
we will not look again because
its author died in 1910 and no

Franklin street Is q street in

Philip Goodman's family lived
on Franklin. Nearby were his
gay and gaundy Uncle Joe, his
tight listed relatives, the Da
Costas, canny Rabbi Gelsenfarb
with his one equisite daughter
and his four unattractive ones.
Other people lived on Franklin
street and all of them were in
teresting or at least lively.
Most interesting and liveliest
of all were mother and father:
mother, charming, sweet, con-
newfoundland father, delight
full, convivial and wise. Their
personalities illuminate the
book, making it shine with
gaiety and all the brightness
which goes with the Joy of liv-
ing. Their friends and rela-
tives were good and bad, having
among them most of the virtues
and many of the vices. But none
of them were dull.
Uncle Joe lacked q good deal
in the way Of qualifications for
Mrs. Grundy's approval, but he
was generous and in his own
way good. Few more charming
people have appeared between
the covers of q book in recent
years, no one who reads about
him will condemn him wholly.

The opening lead was won by
the ace of spades. Dummy led
the king of diamonds. East took
his ace and exited with the Jack
of diamonds, as he didn't want
to let North in to cash clubs.
Dummy ran all the diamonds.
West began discarding clubs,
and each time he did 80 North
also let 60 q club. In fact, both
hands discarded all six clubs.
Then South led q low spade and
East won with the queen.
AS East had saved only queen

were now both good. But the
amazing part Of the story Is that
the only club trick ever taken
was won by the fourspot, which
East had saved and now cashed.
The East-West pair felt conf
dent that in holding the con-
tract to four no trump they
must have won the board. But
when the board was played later
