That seemed fairly sound. but
East over-ruffcd the j with the o.
If East had now returned n
club. South would have wound up
with one trick lost through the
heart over-ruff. one in diamonds
and two in clubs. East. however,
decided somehow that a spade re.
turn was better. His 10 enabled
South to use the A and X to dis
card diamond and club. SO that
South lost only enc trick in each
minor plus the one to the heart
Z, and made his contract.
East could not believe that
South was blank in spades. AS he
SAID later. he was sure South
would have used the spades for
discards as seen as he got into
the dummy if he had been blank.
Hence. he probably had two
spades. and the return of them
was innocuous.

Veteran Actor on First Trip

His Last

Il hope to be in movies if I live
to be $50 years DID, said Neil Ham
ilton, already a screen veteran for
26 years, and laughingly remarked,
Il guess I'm just stage-struck!"
In an interview last night the
distinguished actor told of a teen
age desire to crash the movies and
especially when told that he bore
a marked resemblance to Tony Nor
emo, star of the silent films. IF
that son-of-a-gun can do it, SO can
t. Hamilton said-and he did.
Beginning way back in 1918, Neil
Hamilton did extra work in the
silent movies when the big compan-
les were all at Fort Lee, New Jer-
sey, which was the Hollywood of
| those days. In 1922 a big oppor-
tunity came when he was selected
for part in THE White Rose
with Mae Marsh He was with D.
w. Griffith for three years, and in
1922 went with Paramount.
In 1880 he received a contract
with MGM, and in 1882 went abroad
for two years to make an English
version of French picture.
Long-Term Contract
Following his return to the United
States he free-lanced for several
years and before coming north was
signed to long-term contract with
the eminent producer David O.
Selznik.
Hamilton's latest role is that of
Shirley Temples father in Since
You Went Away" starring Clau-
dette Colbert. The picture is ex-
pected to be released this spring OF
early summer.
Born in Lynn, Massachusetts, the
45-year-old actor spent the greater
part of his childhood in the small
town of Athol. He is very happily
married and is the father of 49,
year-old daughter, Patricia This
