mean the difference between top
and bottom score on a deal Beat
ing your competition by a mere
ten points counts as much as
beating It by thousand. Expert

keenly aware OF the profit from
making a major suit contract OF

worth only 1870. from so for tricks

got a chance to show his spades

a result the pairs got into diamond

The most experienced player OF

Detroit is one rainStorm away from the world series and the Chi cago Cubs aren't far removed. 1T the weather man turns the faucet on at Briggs stadium, washing out the scheduled doubleheader, the Cleveland Tigers will back into the American League throne without winning another game.
 However the sun shone early today and the prospect is that the games will be played.
 Things are not quite so simple for the Cubs in the National League, but they lead by two and one-half games and can grind out the St. Louis Cards last hope to- day by repeating yesterdays six to five conquest in the final meet ing.
 They will still not be ''in" math- ematically, but they are so close they would have to lose the re- maining five games and the Cards win their four to miss.
 Hank Borowy failed in the last desperate Card rally in the eighth, but received credit for the tenth victory. Ray Prim helped him out by superb relief job. There were some solid base hits by Cavaretta and Pafko. Each of whom knocked in two runs which turned the threatened loss into a glorious victory.

Statehood Not Far Distant For Alaska

WASHINGTON, Sep. 26-(Po- The Presidents statement was called "heartening news" by Dele gate Bartlett. Administration support means statehood will not be long delayed for Alaska. The Presidents expression as to the future political status of the Ter ritory bears out what he told me some months ago, when he said he knew more about Alaska than most people realized. He had deep interest in the welfare of the country. Very few people would be willing to deny that Alaska is now ready for Statehood. I'm con- vinced that a sufficient majority of Alaskans desire it at the earli- est possible moment"

Many people going to the air port recently have been surprised to find that the P.A.A. have moved to the north side of the field.

When they finally find the right road they are rewarded by find ing a very pleasant waiting room with adjoining offices.
