The prevailing form: He died Tor

New Orleans: From recent maga-
zine: Stefan became nauseous.'
Could that be right?-Mrs. L. S. S.
Answer-Yes, if the author in
tended to say that Stefan was loath-
some; SO disgusting as to cause
nausea Probably he meant to write:
Stefan became nauseated.
Huntington Park: Please tell me

A retentive memory is an exag-
gerated virtue in the minds of most
bridge players I do not mean by
this that the absent minded profe2-
sor will enjoy any special advantage.
but, contrary to popular belief, 1t ],
never essential to remember So cardg-
1t is orderly thinking that is vital
and if your campaign is properly
planned there are seldom more than
a few cards that you will have to
remember. The error that many
PLAYERS make is to try to think back
in an effort to recollect. The SIM
pie and effective technique is to
make mental notes of the material
facts as you go along.
In today's hand, watching the
spots very carefully permitted South
to enjoy the rare pleasure of fines
sing four on the third round OF
the suit. The bidding followed or
| thodoX lines and the final contract
was eminently sound 1t will be OBJ
served that without club opening,
declarer would have several chances
/ 1Ol lliS LolItl dSt. All CNCIk VI Nnh III
spades would permit the discard OF
club from dummy. If spades failed
| to break, declarer had the chance
that the queen of diamonds would
fall by the third round, providing
discard of club out of his own hand.
| In the event of the failure of both OF
these efforts, declarer could still fall
back on the club flnesse.
West chose to open the eight OF
spades. which, from his standpoint,
did not prove to be happy choice.
/ The nine was played from dummy
and East's jack forced declarers
king. TTumps were drawn in two
rounds and then the 10 OF spades
played. East covered with the queen
and South's ace won as the seven
dropped from West. At this point,
the six of spades was high and West
was marked with no more of the suit.
! Dummy was entered with the dia-
mond king and the deuce of spades
led and after East followed with the
three. the four was finessed. The
six of spades then provided dis
card for dummy's queen of clubs and
declarer took all 13 tricks for an
undisputed top score on the deal.
Against a club opening, declarer
would have been up against very
trying decision as to the manner Of
attack. Since spade trick must al
most surely be conceded, the choice
rested between the immediate club
e ol,Nk Il
trying to ruff the queen of diamonds,
or attempting the diamond finesse,
to find parking place for declarer's
losing club With all hands exposed.
it will be seen that the winning play
on this hand would be to ruff out
the diamond queen. though on a
J purely percentage basis, that play
would be inferior to the finesse Of
, the diamond jack.

Women's Club Editor

Home and husbands should be the
first responsibility of American
women today, Clare Booth Luce,
Representative from Connecticut,
declared yesterday in an informal
talk before members of the Seventy
eighth Congress Club.
The attractive and gifted Rep
resentative, whose charm and tai
ents have won fame and recogni-
ton from the halls of Congress to
the shores of Malibu," spoke at a
birthday luncheon given in her honor
by Mrs. Joseph harrington, wife of
the delegate from Hawaii and pres
ident of the 18th Club, at the
United Nations Club.
Warning that Communism is at
tempting to destroy American
civilization by first destroying the
home, Mrs. Luce expressed i'm
patience with women who belittled
domestic duties such as teaching
her own children, or changing her
baby's diapers or cooking her hus-
bands dinners"
Women should not apologize and
say, I'm only wife," she added.
The toughest, hardest, most diff
flcult career any woman can under
take is to be a wife and a mother.
They should defend with pride and
not apologize for their job
One of Communism's methods of
attacks against Americanism is the
attempt to make women feel 1t is
belittling to be a good mother and
a faithful wife, Mrs. Luce con-
tinued.
She commented on the number OF
women she had heard remark, 1T
must be wonderful not to have to
take dictation from a man"
And then" she added dryly
%, 100000 60 out and become stenog-
raphers."
Women, the author of The Wom-
en-" advised, should strive not only
to be good homemakers, but to be
wise counselors for their husbands.
The advice and influence of wives
should be directed only toward the
issue. lis it right or wrong" she de-
clared,

you women as wives of Congress-
men, know the Importance of Wom-
ems votes" she said "As wives you
should ask simply, is it right or is it
wrong?' that is the important
thing-it does not matter If he gets
the votes or not"
In the final analysis, all women
can be a force for good or evil, Mrs.
Luce emphasized,
There isn't a single wife of hus-
band who doesn't give advice" she
added. "It is in her power to light
a fire under her man-either fire
of inspiration or a flame of hell.
When Cur men don't seem to know
right or wrong, send them note OF
warning, saying, If it is right, do it
If it is wrong, don't do it,
Attired in an attractive tWo-piece
wool ensemble of black and white
checked skirt and jade green jacket,
with check lapelS and cuffs, Mrs.
Luce presented striking pic
ture as she addressed her audience
hatless, her blond hair worn high
with soft curls.
In her introduction fattering trib-
ute was paid the guest by Mrs. Far
rington, who said, many women
may have more brains than Clare
Luce-many others may have more
beauty-but I know no one who has
more perfectly balanced combination
of brains and beauty than she"
Mrs. harrington explained that
Mrs. Luce's husband, Henry Luce,
had expected to attend the luncheon
planned in his honor as the only
husband" admitted as member of
the 18th Club. but that he had been
unable to attend being abroad on a
