Uncle Rays Corner

The mortar was made by mixing
lime with water.
The common house of the region
was only one story high, but there
were some houses with two or three
stories, and at least one house had
five stories. The upper rooms, how
ever, were usually built on . solid
base, and were placed back of the
rooms below. In that way, there
was terrace idea in forming the
homes. which were much like the
homes Of the Pueblo Indians.
The buildings which have kept
their shape for centuries. are of con-
crete, but it is believed that the
usual home of the time was simply
palm-thatched hut. In the same
district today, the Indians live in
alm-thatched huts.
Frames were made for the door,
ways OF concrete houses, and panels
over the doorways were sometimes
carved. One such panel, found in
Yucatan, contains the figure of part
Of mouth with giant teeth.
The Mayas were good weayers.
They knew how to make lace as We

With the Bridge Players
By Frank B. Lord

A delegation of Washington
bridge players went to Pittsburgh
last week for the fall frolic classic
at the william Pitt Hotel, which
rates as an outstanding bridge event
of the State. Mrs. Jack Bennett,
PRESIDENT of the Washington Bridge
League Auxiliary, attended to de-
fend the title to the women's pair
championship, which she won there
last year, playing in partnership
with Mrs. H. D. Stahl, one OF the
ace players of the Smoky City.
A second contingent motored to
Lynchburg for the city tournament,
which has always been popular with
local players.
The master point games con-
Quoted by local bridge units that
affiliate with the American Contract
Bridge League are becoming in
creasingly popular. There were l3
tables last week in Mrs. Stephens

Jack Bennett tied with Mr.. and
Mrs. Bernard Rossan. The. North
and South winners were George

In the southern part of Mexico is
a state known as Yucatan, which
was once the chief home of the
Maya Indians. Those Indians were
among the most advanced on either
continent, and they have left many
relics of their olden ways. rr-heir
records stretch back at least 1000
years, and the remains of their
cities have brought wonder to mod
ern visitors.
Some of the houses used by the
EMayas were three stories high. They
were made of concrete, with lime
stone plaster on the outside. The
best houses were doubtless used by
the priests and other leaders Of the
tribe.
The Mayas were experts at max
ing clay jars, bowls and dishes.
They also made vases from clay.
The clay vessels were adorned
with colors - orange. yellow, red
brown, pink and green. Often the
colors were used to make pictures
on clay. including images OF mon
keys, jaguars, snakes and birds. Now
and. then q sketch of priest or a
god was used.
Clay dolls were made In the region
These dolls had arms and legs which
would move, because they were
formed from separate pieces Of clay
I suppose the little Maya girls prized
such dolls as greatly as modern girls
prize dolls with china faces
The Mayas sometimes built con-
crete walls for their homes. X
make the concrete they broke ur

Arrau Is Scheduled
For Recital Sunday

Claudio Arrau, the celebrated
Chilean pianist, will make his only
recital appearance in Constitution
Hall Sunday afternoon, November 4
at o'clock, presented by Dorothy
Hodgkin Dorsey.
The artist will open his program
with Bach's "Chromatic Fantasy
and Fugue," followed by Beethoven's
"Appasionata" sonata and five
Chopin compositions, Fantasy in
F minor, op. 49,; "Barcarolle" and
three etudes, &C sharp minor, op
10, No. g.; "E minor, op. 25, No. S.
and &c sharp minor, op. 10, No. a.
Bartok's Allegro Barbara" Albe-
niz,s "Almeria" and Navarro, y
Ravel's "Jeux deau" and Debussy's
"Danse" will complete the program
In the short space of five seasons,
Arrau has risen to the top rank of
concertizing pianists. BY reason of
his sensational success as soloist
with the National Symphony Or
chestra and in recital under Mrs
Dorsey's management last season
the pianist is already widely known
here.
Born in Chillan. in Southern
Chile, destroyed in the 1889 earth
quake, but rebuilt since, Arrau gave
his first recital at the age of 5 in
Santiago, the capital. Because of
his extraordinary talent, the gov
ernment undertook to finance his
musical education, sent him to Eu-
rope and subsidized his study with
Martin Krause, pupil of List, for
10 years.
While a pupil, Arrau won the
coveted Liszt and Ibach prizes, as
well as first place in the Interna-
tional Congress of Pianists in Switz-
erland in 1925, an award which
started Arrau on long European
career which ended with the out
break of the war in 1899 and sent
him seeking new fields of pianistic
conquest in the United States. Com
| ing to this country without previ-
GUS fanfare, Arrau literally stam-
peded his first New York audience
which was unprepared for such
virtuosity.

vanced academic subjects as physics,
biology, chemistry, radio, television,
algebra, trigonometry, calculus, phil
osopfy, psychology and German.
Besides, he has deep appreciation
for classical music and literature,
which he considers, in way, hob
bies. On the strength of what he
has acquired from these subjects,
the Massachusetts, Institute of Tech
nology is considering him for ad-
mittanCe.
Besides the time he gives to these
studies, Toby works five hours day
in his laboratory, and on weekend
nights sometimes until o'clock in
the morning.
In the last three years Toby has
concentrated his scientific interest
in physics experiments, which he
hopes some day to make his career.
In 1912, with an older group OF
friends, now scattered throughout
the armed forces, Toby did some ex-
periments with an ounce of uranium,
though then the friends probably
never dreamed what a powerful
force they were playing with. 1t
was the splitting of the uranium
atom that changed uranium from
an experimental element into the
makings of the atomic bomb. One
of these friends had yacht on the
/ Potomac, and from its Diesel engines
the young scientists drew the type
of electric power they needed To
engineer their idea to extract energy
from the uranium. With the linn
tied equipment they had they did
manage to get small amount OF
fenergy. he said.
/ AS the world is now entering an
atomic era, Toby could not choose
a better career, for, as he puts 1t,
Il would like to get into atomic
