teal what dHedu. we certainly nave
seen small gangs seize control of
great nations in the last dozen years,
due to the indifference of people
who submitted to seeming small
things done by politicians-often
rotten--who pinch off some liber-
ties here and some more there until
the masses are helpless. In the
United States we have submitted
gladly to war time restrictions.
There is not yet any group strong
enough to attempt to overthrow our
democracy but that does not mean
that no such group ever will grow
up. There is no doubt that here are
many individual with that idea in
their minds. They will worm into
key places in the government. One
of the earliest measures will be to
disarm the people. A list of arms
and owners is needed first step.
On the face of it it looks like a fair
law and it is argued that it would
prevent crime, but it is the law
abiding citizens that would register
their guns while the gangsters, the
the underground would not.
New York has a law against owning
pistols, result of rotten politics, and
there the law-abiding citizen is at
the mercy of the armed thug who
pays no more attention to that law
than he does to any other. Stop
ownership of machine guns and sub
guns and the military rifles

These are some random notes
traced in the sand at Wrightsville
Beach over the weekend.
First off there was a meander to
and from Bluethenthal field Sat
urday morning with my old crony
his words-Roscoe Turner, the
flying gentlemen from Indiana
who's seriously planning a week
end airplane shuttle service be-
tween indianapolis and Wrights-
vile Beach for Hoo5iers who want
a brief sojourn away from the
sitting heat of the Middle West.
Colonel Turner, as you've prob
ably seen in the papers, flew here
Friday night from Indianapolis
with five of the aforesaid Hoos-
iers. OF course, the Colonel
brought along his staff: Blue Bar
ron, co-pilot, and Jim Roberts,
engineer.
Here l was" the Colonel tells
you,' sitting in my office in Indi-
annapolis at four o'clock Friday
afternoon, sweating like a horse,
At seven o'clock l was walking
out on the beach at Wrightsville.'
Now, in spite of the fact that the
Colonel has been flying all over
the world these passed Is years,
you could tell by the tone of his
voice and the look in his eye that
he figured this feat little short O.

of time he's been flying, the Colo
mel puts it this way: 1.-The Wright

that what's it to getting here in q

BRIDGE
BY WI LIAM E. MCKINNEY
Americas Card Authority

Where is the best bridge played
in the United States? Probably in
the Mermaid con at the Park
Central hotel in New York. After
a tournament the players gather
there for sandwiches, and to dis
cuss the hands, and some very
smart plays r made in that
cocktail lounge.
One of the country's great play
ers gave me today's hand there,
but when he told me about the
play, he admitted tn he had not
made it at the tournament.
The opening spade lead was won
by declarer with the nine-spot, a
small hea: was led nd the jack
finessed. West refused to win,
and declarer returned to his hand
with the ace of "lubs, then led
another heart.
Now East showed out, so de-
clarer went up with the c of
hearts and led the queen, West
winning. West played the dia-
mond deuce, East won with the
ace and returned the diamond
four, West winning with the king.
The six of diamonds was returned
and East won with the jack.
Now East should have led the
king of spades, which would have
prevented declarer from return
ing to his hand to draw the last
trump. East was bound to get in
again with the king or jack of
clubs and would then return a
spade, which West would trump
for the setting trick.
The party bridge player is not
inclined to take too much interest
in a part score contract, but in
tournament bridge it can be just
as important to make or defeat
a part score as to make or defeat
a grand slam.

The Colonel Wonders, Too, About This
Age Of Speed And Miracles In The Air

But on our meander to Blue
thenthal Saturday the Colonel got
that faraway look in his eyes and
soliloquized something thusly:
"You know, when i first knew
you I didn't think there was any
thing so out-of-the-ordinary about
flying over the country in that old
bi-plane, with the secondhand
sheet and haywire trimming, ]
owned. Why, you could tie a tail
On to it and turn it loose and ii
would fly just like a kite.
But as long as I've been mess
ing around in the air I keep think
ing it's absolutely fantastic that
something like this thing will fly
The this thing" the Colonel was
talking about was the converted
B-23 he has just purchased for his
Turner Aeronautical corporation
in indianapolis. 1t is the type
plane the Colonel plans to use in
his projected weekend vacation
special to Wrightsville Beach. II
carries IS passengers, besides the
pilot, co-pilot, and engineer, Anc
it is one of SO the government had
built during the war.
"The darned thing weighs 10, DOC
pounds" the Colonel went on.
"That's what's fantastic. How the
deuce can anything that heavy
keep flying? Yet, you know there
are much heavier planes and they
are building 'em bigger and heav-
Ter every day"
We drove over to the airport in
Philip Clevenger's automobile. Or
the way over Mr.. Clevenger need
ed some gas. Upon having the
t * filled, the Colonel tried to
pay for the gasoline but Mr.,
Clevenger wouldn't hear to it.
So, being a h spitable and court
eous soul. when we got over to the
airport and the Colonel had his
planes tanks filled I said, right
off-hand. LET me pay for this,
Roscoe"
There we're a few preliminary
fumbles at the pocketbook hip.

Colonel beat me to the draw.

COMPANIONS OF THE LEFT
HAND, by George Tabori
HOuohfOn MiffJin. CO sS

NAOuSuCOu NlIllln, SE.I0.)
I'm always glad to get to the
end of a novel by Tabor, because,
as you'll remember from his BE
meath the Stone" the end is such
a lulu.
In this new book he has de-
vised another remarkably ingen-
lous finale. If on occasional pages
he seems to let you down, to slow
his pace, to veer off in a right
hand direction instead of sticking
to the left, bear with him and
you'll eventually be in the other
he has carefully plotted for you.
1t is in retrospect that the novel
appears at it's best. Other writ
ers have wracked their brains over
the central idea Tabori uses, but
haven't been so successful.
Stefan Farkas, the main chara-
cter, is a famous popular drama
fist with the triangle as his stock
in trade. He goes to San Fernan-
do, a small Italian po,t, to pre-
pare another play, to rest and b.
accept a temporary substitute, n
he must, for the mistress he left
in Switzerland.
But just as he arrives, the Al
lies jump from Sicily to Italy.
Though English and American
armies in the early days travel
last, rumors outdistance them, and
San Fernando hears that the lib
orators are in Naples, then in
Rome, and finally, best news Of
all, that the war is over. The pop
ulation is deliriously happy and
some old scores are settled. with
a vlllalnous police chief paying
the highest price. Then facts catch
up brutally whit the rumors.
