Bridge
By Frank B. Lord

Now that wartime restrictions
have been removed, Secretary Will
liam E. Kenney of the American
Contract Bridge League has been
in Washington discussing plans to
make the organizations annual
winter tournament the biggest and
best in its history. 1t will be held
during the first week Of December
In the Chelsea Hotel, Atlantic City
One of the innovations will be ar
individual master match for ma.
tional championship. 1t will be
played in three sessions, and or
every set of boards each player
will have different partner. Chart
ing the movement for a. competi-
ton of this sort is an intricate
process, rarely attempted In ma.
tional bridge meet and seldom ir
either regional or local contests
although it affords opportunity fol
the display of individual skill that
is not possible in either pair OF
team games.
Arrangements also are being per-
fected for participation of the West
Coast players, who long have been
anxious to test their ability against
Eastern experts. The Pacific Coast
League became an affiliate just be-
fore the war started, and the play
ers from the Far West have not
been able to attend the meets, which
were necessarily held in this part
of the country. A program has
been worked out which will enable
contestants from the two sections
to display their prowess against
each other. 1t is quite likely that
the succeeding tournament will be
held either in Los Angeles, which
has come to be the leading bridge
center of the United States. or in
San Francisco where the game also
has strong following.
The most spectacular part of the
tournament program is to be an
international feature, the exact
nature of which has not yet been
disclosed During the war there was
practically no association among
bridge players of different countries,
even the famous Olympics being
abandoned, but now there Is to be
a revival of their exchanges. The
stunt which the league will inau-
gurate will be the first important
event in that direction.
Louis Tubbs, who, during the war,
served in the Navy, signalized his
return to the Federal Bridge League,
of which he was formerly president,
by winning in its master point game
at the Wardman Park Hotel last
Tuesday night He played North
and South with his brother, Lloyd
Tubbs. The pair, with a score of
202, had a margin of 12l2 points
over their nearest rivals in the sec
ton in which they played Mrs. John
M. Coffee, wife Of the Represent
ative from Washington State, and
James Sourelas were second, with
1884,. East and West. Mr.. and Mrs.
Ben RoSsan, led with 1873, closely
followed by Rush Buckley and Mrs.
Florence Stein, who had 1922.
In the other section, the CO.
winners were Mrs. Alma Byrne and
Mrs. Harold Campbell. who had a
score of 1888, North and South Mrs.
Sybil Newlands and Col. H. j.
Vandersluis were runnersup, with
160. East and West, DR.. Harold L.
Saxton and John Peck, were first,
with 1877, and Mrs. F. Palmer and
Meta Nicholson, second, 1907.

 The Germans also reinforced their Colmar pocket to Yuth, cap- tured Witternheim and Friesen- helm and drove north along the Rhine Canal within Is miles of the city which is reported as being evacuated hastily.
 Supreme Headquarters said. Fighting continues north of these towns"
 However, in the extreme north the German bridgehead across the Maas, north of Venlo, endured AL lied attacks Supreme Headquarters mentioned a second crossing of the river, 38 miles northeast of Ant Werp in the Geertruidenberg area This holding was described as an outpost, and Eisenhower's com- munique called the engagement "mopping up."
 American counter blows are de- clared to be beating back a Ger man spearhead which last week gouged within 10 miles of Saverne Pass, threatening to cut off Stras- bourg.

REPAIR BILLS
 TOTAL HIGH ON
 FEDERAL BLDG,

When the war is over there will be bigger sidewalks to bother the snow shovelers in front of the Fed eral Building.
 George Gullufsen, Federal Build ing Custodian, declared widening of the sidewalk on the front entrance side of the building is to be included in postwar building plans.
 Three feet will be added to the present sidewalk, on the inside of the walk. This project, along with improvement of the parking area in the rear of the building and gen. eral painting and replastering will bring repairs bills to a total of somewhere around $50,O00 or $60,- 000," Gullufsen said.
 Meanwhile, Federal office occu- pants dubiously eye falling plaster, dirty walls and cracked windows.
 We've got no money to put in new windows unless they bust 'em clear out" Gullufsen said, defining the Post Office Departments war time shoestring economy policy.
 Gullufsen is in shirtsleeves and busy with his crew preparing Senate and House quarters for the coming legislative session now only two weeks away.
 The increase in legislative mem bership will be taken care of by doubling up in the House and re- moval of one row of seats from each gallery in the Senate.
 Total emergency appropriation for the job was $500 and as Gullufsen put it, wiping the precipitation from his brow and temporarily laying down his saw, mo contractors were interested"

GREAT LOVE x THEME OF FILM
 ON CAPITOL BILL

Song of Russia new Metro Goldwyn- Mayer film starring Rob- ert Taylor, now at the Capitol Theatre, can modestly boast one of the most interesting aggrega- tions of talent brought to the screen in many a blue or silver moon.
 In the first place, there are the two out-and-out, 100 per cent Am erican leads. Taylor, playing one of the most exciting and unusual parts of his career, is seen as a young American symphony con- ductor visiting Russia in the days just before the attack by Germany, and caught in the pinions of war Susan Peters, the skyrocketing young actress who was seen in Random Harvest" and Assign ment in Brittany" appears as a talented young Russian pianist who marries the young American after a breathtaking courtship.
 In addition to it's dramatic con- temporary story, contrasting the peacetime and wartime Soviet with powerful impact, Song of Russia" has an exceptional musical accom- paniment. A symphony orchestra made up of 150 pieces was used for big musical scenes of the produc- tion, playing Tschaikowsky and other music, under direction of Albert Coates.

 MORATORIUM
 FOR INSURANCE

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8. - Presi- dent Roosevelt favors the general principle of the legislation giving insurance businesses a moratorium under the Sherman Antitrust Act until March 1, 1946, except for the acts which concern boycott, coercion or intimidation.
 The White House made public the correspondence between the Presi- dent and Senator Radcliffe. Roose- welt in letter of January 2, said such a moratorium as provided in the bill by Senator O'Mahoney would give the insurance business sufficient time to readjust itself to the Supreme Court decision holding insurance lin commerce" and there fore subject to the antitrust law.
