South had tremendous hand, es-
pecially with his partner dedou-
bling, and decided to show that he
might have the diamond SUI t
stopped with a bid of one no trump.
Mrs. Sobel realized that the OPP
ponents undoubtedly had game
in some suit, and that 1t would do
her no good to bid two hearts. What
she had to do was to make bid
that would get the opponents into
a bad contract. Therefore, with her
singleton diamond. she made the
psychic bid Of two diamonds. North.
having the diamond suit stopped
twice, though that South's bid Of
one no trump must mean that the
heart suit was stopped in the South
hand-and he promptly jumped to
three no trump.
Mrs. Sobel did not make the mis-
take of doubling. II she had, North
and South would have run out to
five clubs. which they could have
made. Instead, she slowly and de-
iibeSately took the first seven tricks,
800 points for her side.

CAVALRY CAPERS
ANOTHER in a series of books
describing the life of your son and
mine in the armed forces is Hes
in the Calvary Now" by Brig. Gen.
Rufus S. Ramey Mcbride: $2.75).
First off you probably have the
idea that the calvary is still a
horse-opera branch of the serv-
ices. But you'll get a distinct sur
prise in learning how it has been
modernized through mechanization.
Sure, the boys still know how to
ride horses, but they also know
how to move with trucks, jeepS. am
phibians, and execute all the frontal
and thanking maneuvers with me-
chanized power that made the cal
vary SO famous back in the days
when the horse was the difference
between winning and losing a battle.
General Ramey, top word in
cavalry strategy, has gone to great
pains to tell how youngsters are put
through the rigors of present day
training. And you can be assured
that, after coming out of this course
our cavalrymen are moree modern
and better conditioned than any
others. and that they are following
a tradition that has been one of the
most illustrious in the armed forces
of the country.

The author, former German
officer now in England, and who
served at one time or another I'M
der the military leaders whom he
sketches, pictures Rommel as not
at all cagey or even a good general,
but a smart politician, def at bal
lyhoo, who hitched his wagon to
Hitler's star, and by that alone
reached his present rank.
General Won FritSch, who sup
posedly was killed in action on the
Polish front, died quite a different
death, according to Hart. One mar
row and highly dramatic escape
from Hitler's henchmen was fol-
lowed by another trap, but this time
the jaws did not miss.
The book is more than a series
of profiles. 1t is the story of the
struggle between the old-line mill
tary and the NaZi upstairs, Of plots
and counterplots. But despite the
internecine warfare, all of these
"supermen" had one goal in COM
mon: German domination of the
world. OF particular interest is
Harris evidence confirming the
early suspicious Of the more far
sighted-that Germany began re-
arming almost as soon as other
nations had laid down their weap-
ons at the conclusion of World War
/.
The book is important. Gen.

MERCHANT MARINE SAGA
BATTLE OF THE OCEANS"
Oiveright: $3.50 is the story OF
the gallant men and ships of the
British merchant navy. There is no
more dramatic and poignant tale OF
heroism than that of the men of the
merchant marine, and the author,
Warren Armstrong. has chronicled
their life with the authenticity and
color which only a sea-faring man
could do.
The author sets his tales of the
deeds of the merchant seamen
against the historic background OF
England at war from the bleak days
of 1898 to 1913. He shows how Hit
ler's plan to use U-boats to cut Bri-
tain's supply lines was courageous
ly thwarted by the British royal and
merchant nayies. The ruthlessness
and cruelty Of the U-boat comman-
ders is wildly portrayed by the
authors description of England's
struggle to clear the seas Of this
menace.
The role played by the British
seamen In the evacuation OF Dun
kirk. the landing of Allied troops
In North Africa. and the convoy
ing of men an dsupplies to the Al
lied nations is described with dram
attic force. Having lived. worked and
fought with Britain's merchant sea-
men Of both World Wars. the auth
or sets forth his relief that these
men are the real heroes Of this, and
the first World War.

BY WILLIAM E. MCKINNEY
The psychology used by Mrs. A.
M. sobel in the bidding of today's
hand is worthy Of note. After the
opening club bid, she decided she
could come into the bidding any
time with her long heart suit; so
for the time being she put in a
double. When North redoubled, Mrs.
Sobel knew that North and South
held all the cards except some
hearts, and this was confirmed when
East took the redouble out with a
bid Of one diamond.
