Opening lead: King of spades.
A study in contrasting tempera-
ments is provided by today,s hand
from one Of the early rounds Of
the worlds championship masters
team of -four event. There is grave
danger that the typesetter will come
in for some abuse when this bid
ding sequence is exposed to view,
but I assure you he is entirely
blameless. The auction may appear
to be like something out of a bad
dream, but 1t actually happened
with an important championship at
stake.
The beneficiaries of this enormous
swing were the team consisting Of
three Canadians, Sam Gold and
Aaron Goodman of Montreal and
Percy Sheardown of Toronto, and
Charlotte Sidway of Buffalo and
Mrs. r, P. Cunningham of Chicago.
This is the aggregation which my
team was obliged to overcome In
the semifinal round on our way to
the ultimate championship and 1t
was the consensus among my team
mates that they displayed the finest
brand OF bridge to which we were
exposed during the entire event.
Goodman holding the South hand
elected to open with one club. THIS
does not coincide with my own par
ticular style, but he felt inclined to
bid and concluded that an opening
bid of one heart might make 1t
awkward to rebid II partner re-
sponded with two Of minor West
emotionally unsettled by a disaster
incurred on the previous hand tried
to win back some of the points by
psychic" double. Sam Gold in
the North chose to bid six clubs as
gamble, feeling If that the defense
had two quick spade tricks to cash
they might not guess to lead them.
If not afforded the opportunity for
an exchange of information. East
doubled vigorously and West in
stead Of seeking some safe opening
continued his aggressive manner by
opening the king of spades.
Goodman found this very much
to his taste and started to pull
trumps. East won with the ace and
returned the 10 of spades, South's
queen telling Vests jack. The
queen of clubs dropped Vests 10
and the South hand was re-entered
with the nine of clubs. Goodman
then executed the dramatic play
of the hand by taking a first-round
finesse in diamonds He explained
that he felt that Morrie Ellis in
the East seat would not be in
clined to double a slam with only
two aces and that he therefore
had some further factor working
on his behalf which might readily
be void in diamonds. Further.
more, he had ascertained that West
held only two spades and two clubs
so that there was good chance
that among his nine red cards
would be four diamonds or almost
certainly three, so that the first
round finesse would lose only to
the singleton jack in the East hand
which was much against the odds.
That's my idea of GOODNESS under
fire.

Il sculptor clubs are once again spring
ing up throughout the U. S. One of the
best and busiest is the Clay Club, located
in New York's Greenwich Village.
Founded l9 years ago. the club ranks

world. Its membership includes rs first
rate professionals and upwards of 800
contributing members from all walks of
life. Here doctors, lawyers, businessmen,

"Instead of singing Romeo and
Juliet" observes Payne, "We have
attempted to make it real to the
audience. We are trying to bring
Shakespeare to life. He meant
Romeo and Juliet to be youthful
alive, passionate"
Miss Slater has this to say:
81 am trying to get the Fl e ane
passion Of the southern nature into
it. It's a sort of sudden, ire
mendous emotional upheaval
Brook explained his conception
and I accept his ideas"
Brook reminds that in Shakes
peare's day:
1.-THE poetry, love and physical
action of love making were com
pletely indivisible, and if n looks
at the verse and imagery and feel
ing of Romeo and Juliet n will
see that this poem of an Italian
boy and girl who fall in love with
f%iercest passion is as much a glorl-
fication Of sex as of love-"
Mrs. Eleanor Melville, octoge-
marian lady of Stratford, a COVER
nor of the Memorial theater and
widow of the vicar, sums up the
controversy in these words:
ssWe don't venerate Shakespeare
enough. He was. very earthly.
don't think the critics know the
difference between a red light and
2 blue One."

CaIIsConflict Of Ideal! /!
Paramount Issue
By the Associated Press

NEW YORK, July 2.-The para
mount political issue of the age is
that of free society versus the
police state" the Commission on a
Just and Durable Peace, headed by
John Foster Dulles, Republican for
eign affairs adviser to Secretary OF
State Marshall, said yesterday.
The commission also said in a
statement approved and adopted by
the Executive Committee of the Fed
eral Council of Churches of Christ
in America, that the most difficult
international problem is "to estab-
lish working relations with the
Soviet Union"
In news conference, Mr.. Dulles
said the statement-hrst by the
commission since October II, 1876
was prompted by the growing
uenseness of the international Situa-
ton and the obvious need of more
thoughtful United States policies. u
The Executive Committee of the
council represents approximately
100000 Protestants of Is denomi-
nations
The commissions statement
called for an American foreign pol
icy composed primarily of moral
ingredients. 1t said that the Amer
lean people should make clear that
whatever may be their views about
the military aspects of national de-
fense, they do not put primary re-
lance upon material defense; our
chief reliance is on moral ofen-
sive."
The statement backed the Mar
shall plan for reconstruction of
European nations and added that
when resources were limited and a
choice had to be made it was "legit-
innate to favor those who are intel
ligently striving to help themselves
and to help others"
America has mot adequately
availed itself of the great possibil-
ity of the United Nations" the
statement continued.
The statement, also said that 1--WE
utterly reject the idea of Inevitable
ity of war and we oppose all ma
tional policies which have that pre-
supposition.

CARY GRANT AND ETHEL BARRYMORE
 AT 10TH CENTURY

An easy alliance with the lawless as a means of relieving poverty, forms the theme of RKO Radios thrilling new drama. None But the Lonely Heart in which Cary Grant is starred and Ethel Barry more is featured. It is Miss Barry more's first screen appearance in twelve years. This feature is at the 2Oth Century tonight
 Cary Grant has the role of a hopeless and embittered Cockney wastrel who lives with and sponges from his mother (Ethel Barrymore) who keeps a small second hand shop in one of the dingiest sec- tions of Londons East End.
 A crisis occurs in their lives which makes the need for immed- fate moneys desperate and they turn to ways without the law to provide it. The drama moves with exciting swiftness, and is absorb ing from start to finish. Par ticular interest lies in the faithful reproduction of the novels, pubs and pawnshops of one of Londons seamier sides and in the weird and wonderful denizens of this district Heading the long supporting cast are Barry Fitzgerald, June Duprez Jane Wyatt, George Coulouris, Ro- man Bohnen and Konstantin Shayne.
