 Tllat bit of news, combined with the knowledge of how hard it is for anybody to find a place to live these days, may make the girls take the census figures with a grain of salt.
 It may put them to thinking about the difference between the term "marriageable" men which the Census Bureau uses and the more exclusive term eligible" men.
 So far as girls immediate chances for marriage are con- cerned the man who is living on $2O a week and sleeping under his parents roof may be marriageable- but not at the moment entirely eligible.

McKENNEY
 ON BRIDGE
BY WILLIAM E. McKENNEY America's Card Authority

I have had some good laughs out of S. J. Simon's book, Why You Lose at Bridge" He says that one of the pitfalls of the expert is the safety play, and cites a case in which an international player, a natural pessimist, played 8 hand to guard against five adverse trumps in one hand.
 He played it beautifully, and if the five outstanding trumps had been in one hand, he would have made his contract. Unfortunately they were divided three-two, so he went down one.
 The hand shown Is another of MT. Simon's examples of an expert and a safety play. The bidding might be different in your town, but that was the way it went in London.
 Declarer won the opening lead with the ace of hearts and played 8 spade to the king. Everybody

followed. Now he played the six of spades from dummy and East fol- loved.
 What card should declarer play? It appears, as MT. Simon says, that South has the perfect safety play of the jack of spades. Suppose that West does win with the queen let him have it. Regardless of what he returns, South will win. pick up the trump and spread the hand.
 So MT. Expert took the finesse and lost it. West with evil design led another heart, East trumped- result, down one.
 MT. Simon points out that West had opened a heart in spite of the fact that South bid hearts. Why? He must have been long in hearts and hoped that his partner could ruff the opening lead.
 The safety play on this hand would be to go right up with the ace so there would be no possibil- lty of East getting in a ruff.

Heights, Md, deputized two Wash.
ington private detectives to aid ir
five numbers" raids yesterday. Ths
Mayor said he took this action after
his requests to the Prince Georges
County police had not been acted on
Three town policemen assisted the
two detectives, while the Mayor
stood outside. The raids were or
two poolrooms, bar, a lunchroom
and a room in the basement of the
Post Office Building, all located or
Central avenue.
Mayor Dom said information was
gathered over two-week period by
Leslie I. Mason, private detective

steries were Edmund Carrick OF
Chicks poolroom, Raymond Luckett

son of Pats poolroom and George
Carr, who lives in a room in the

leased under 5000 bond for arraign-
ment in Trial Magistrate Court al
Upper Marlboro today.
MIR. Dom said he wrote to A

weeks ago after receiving complaints
from citizens. County police visited
the town, but nothing happened, >

in Mr.. Mason.
The name of the other detective

yesterday by the Glenn L. Martin

The jelly-like emulsion is brushed
onto the surface and allowed to dry,
the announcement stated. The
image then must be transferred to

Development proceeds as usual. The
wall photographer will have to figure
out some way, however, of getting
an even application of developer.
Murals, of course, will be cinch-

Alexandra Candidate Cites
Need for More Paid Firemen

The need of fully-manned paid
fire department in Alexandria to
protect the city's increased popula-
tion and property was cited today
by Marshall Beverley, 408 North
View terrace, candidate for City
Council from the fifth ward in the
Democratic primary of March S.
1.-THE fact that Alexandria has
had so few really bad fires is due as
much to good fortune as to the eff
cheney of our small fire department. -
Mr.. Beverley said.
He pointed out that in 1910, the
city's population was approximately
10000 and its real estate value $45.-
500, 900, whereas in 1945 the popula-
ton had risen to 72,00O and the real
estate value to $50 6,800, 900. There still
are only 81 paid members of the fire
department, the same as in 1910.
Mr.. Beverley said that cit is OBJ
vious from these figures that al
though our population and real
estate values have practically
doubled in the last five%years, nc
provision has been made to increase
the number of our paid firemen to q
size commensurate with the increase
in our population and real estate
values. The 81 paid flremen now

Trash and Cigarettes
Blamed for Fires

Arlington Fire Chief A. C. Scheffel
blamed trash accumulations and
carelessly handled cigarettes for
most county fires in 1945.
The annual report submitted by
Chief Scheffel showed the county
sustained its greatest fire loss last
year since 1912. Total damage ir
LOLA fires in 1945 was $124,040-
nearly triple the previous years
losses. In 1914 there were 925 fires
he said, with a loss of $45,395.
Chief Scheffel explained the
principal loss resulted from the
$65,000 Rosslyn fire, caused wher
a loaded gasoline truck went out
of control, crashed and ignited or
December 10.
Grass fires accounted for more
than half the fires last year, the
report showed, with $40 recorded
The remainder were divided as fol.
lows: House, 315; automobile, 1903
United States Government property
3; business, Al; shed, 30; dump, 8
and electric poles, g..
The fire chief pointed out the
increasing age of automobiles hac
caused fires of that type to rise
from % in 1888 to 103 last year.
The report noted an average OF
eight f1remen at each fire and an
average of ~ minutes to. extinguish
a fire. Also shown in the report
were 1904 fire inspections and 651
ambulance calls.
