Mr.. Champion, who never

lowing comment to make. You
never make an inferences from
the fall of the cards, Muzzy. In
fact. you don't paw any atten-
tion at all to what the opponents

This remark was to put him
In a somewhat embarra ssing po-
sition after today's deal.
The queen of spades was
opened and the defenders ratified
off three tricks in that suit. At
trick four the shift was to a
diamond and Mr.. Champion won
on the board with the king.
Clearly, the only problem was
tc avoid the loss of a trump
trick. Mr.. Champion gave a lot
of thought to the possible dis
tribution of the outstanding
hearts. He pictured himself as
the hero in making one of his
favorite plays. This dream in
volved leading a heart from
dummy and finessing the queen.
The queen would hold and he
would then go to the board with
the ace of clubs and lead the
Jack of hearts. That would be
devastating play, simultaneously
trapping the lone 10 on mis- left
and the guarded king on his
right.
But this was all waste of
time When the deuce Of hearts
was led at trick five, Mr.. Dale
prnmntlv played the king.
Unlike Mr.. MUzzy. Mr.. Cham
pion does pay attention to what
the defenders play. If Mr. Dale
had started with the lone king
of hearts, then Mr.. Masters had
three to the 10 left. So, after
winning with the ace of hearts,
Mr. Champion led small heart
and PLAYED dummy's nine. Mr..
Dale won the setting trick.
There was dead silence for a
moment. Then Mr.. Muzzy asked,
rs this typical example of
what happens when you paw at
tentlon to what the opponents
play?" He turned to Mr.. Dale.

especially evident in the first
two movements of the quartet
in which the viola played an
important part. Although freed
from all harmonic restrictions,
the music, nevertheless has an
esthetic appeal at which the
composer is known to aim in his
desire to make it accessible to
all.
The gap of a century between
the methods of Beethoven and

Continuing its fall series of
concerts begun a week ago, the
Budapest String Quartet re-
vived Hindemith's Quartet in
E-flat Major" last night in the
Library of Congress. The work
is of special interest, as it was
there that 1t received it's world
premiere in 1943, played by this
internationally famous group, to
which it is dedicated.
Not all composers of chamber
music can boast of such an inti-
mate acquaintance with strings
as does Hindemith. He earned
his fame as a violist and made
his living early in life as a vio-
linist. His place as composer is
second to none and the influence
he has exercised upon a whole
generation of aspirantS in that
field in the course of years has
been tremendous.

5000 Canadian Seamen
Will Vote on Strike
By the Asseeiated Pra,,

MONTREAL, Aug. 27.-The
international Seafarers Union
called last night for an immedi-
ate strike vote among its 5000
Canadian members after reject
ing an arbitration award in a
wage and hours dispute.
A walkout in the unions dis
pute with four companies oper-
ating 300 vessels would tie up
most Canadian Great Lakes and
East Coast deep-sea shipping.
The union demanded a $50
monthly wage boost and a reduc-
tion from Sc to 40 hours in the
work week, with overtime for all
Saturday and Sunday labor.
The three-man Cancellation
board recommended a gradual
reduction to the 40-hour week
during the next year but said
week ends should be included in
the regular work schedule. It
also recommended wage boosts
ranging from $25 to $40 a month.
Wages now start at $3.50 for
deckhandS.
Ships on the West Coast would
not be affected by a strike call
because the union and COM
panies there have agreed already
on a 40-hour week and $50
across the board raise.

Singer Dick Haynes
Faces More Trouble
As SubpoenasP Pile Up
BY the Assoeieied Press

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 27.-
The deportation blues piled up
on Dick Haynes today as he
surveyed the discordant score :
a second exportable charge by
the Government, and three sub
poenas.
Mr.. Haynes sweated through
5a-hour preliminary hearing
yesterday at which he admitted
filing an application for relief
from military service during
World War II as a citizen of a
neutral country. He said he
thought the application, was only
for temporary deferment and
never realized what the effect
would be-"
His attorneys said they'll fight
the crooner's battle with the I'm
migration Service to the Su-
preme Court, if necessary.
The hearing also brought out
that Mr.. Haynes had a previ-
ously undisclosed marriage-his
f1rst-to Edith Harper, also a
singer, in Chicago in 1899. 1t
lasted only two or three weeks.
he said.
Admits Tax Bill.
Mr.. Haynes admitted owing
the Government an income tax
bill, but said he didn't know off,
hand just how much. He was
told to bring exact figures to a
subsequent session.
Before the day was over three
process servers handed the singer
subpoenas. In one his second
wife. jeanne Dru. says he's be-
hind in alimony payments. The
second was notification of a di-
vorce filed by his present wife.
Nora Eddington. The final sub
poena claimed he owes a depart
ment store $415.
Born in Argentina, Mr.. HAYNES
came to the United States in
1887 and has not become a citi-
zen. The Government charges
he was ineligible to re-enter the
continental United States last
June after visiting Rita Hay
worth. who Hollywood gossip says
Will become wife Number 4.
Contend Citizenship Barred.
immigration officers contend
the law forbids citizenship to any
alien who has sought exemption
from military service and for
bids entry into this country of
any alien who can never become
a citizen.
At the end of the hearing, the
Government added a second de-
portable charge - that Mr.
Haynes failed to notify immigra-
ton authorities of his 1853 ad-
dress during January. Mr..
Haynes said he gave the infor-
nation on February 2 after be-
ing Informed he had failed to
comply with the law.
Attorney David C. Marcus, who
with Robert E. Eaton represented
the singer before hearing officer
Joseph A. Dummel of the Immi-
grafton Service, gained a con-
tlnuance of the hearing until
September % after the second
charged was filed by Examining
Officer Thomas j. Nolan.
Next legal move in the case
Will be a hearing Friday before
United States Judge Pierson Hall
on Mr.. Haynes petition for an
Injunction to halt the deporta-
ton proceedings.

Land Donor Fighting
Plan for Expressway
In Northwest D. T.,

One of the donors of the Clio
ver-Archbold Parkway has re-
tanned attorneys to prevent the
District from building an ex-
press highway through the park.
Mrs. Anne Archbold, who with
Charles c. Glover donated a
major portion of the park to
the city. has instruced Attorneys
Hugh Obear and Grant Wiprud
to fight the plan. The attorneys
appeared before the Committee
of One Hundred on the Federal
City yesterday to begin the fight.
Mrs. Archbold, in a letter to
the group, said the land was
given to the District in 1924 for
park purposes and "for no
other"
Sees Breach of Faith.
Mr.. Wiprud said Mrs. Arch
bold considered the plan to build
an express highway through the
narrow park a breach of faith.
He said she would have no OBJ
jections to a meandering road
through the park similar to the
roads through Rock Creek Park,
however.
The Committee Of One Hun
dred, headed by c. Melvin
Sharpe, listened to discussion
of the controversy then adopted
a resolution condemning the
plan to construct the highway.
It also suggested that Foxhall
road be widened to help handle
traffic in that area. The park
way lies between Foxhall road
and Wisconsin avenue.
The Districts highway plan
calls for construction of a high
way to be known as Arizona ave-
nue. Parkway through the park.
The tract is narrow valley
through which Foundry Branch
flows.
Pact Signed in 194S.
John Nolen, jr.. planning di-
rector for the National Capital
Planning Commission. said the
Arizona Parkway has been on
paper for many years. In 1948.
the District and the National
Park Service signed an agree
ment calling for construction of
the road.
This agreement followed pas
sage of a bill by Congress author
izing construction of the road
and the naming of it after Ari-
zona. Mrs. Archbold and Charles
C. Glover. jr., both protested the
move at the time.
Mr.. Wiprud said Mrs. Arch
bold intended to resume fighting
the plan. She feels that such a
highway would destroy the park.
Her letter said she felt con-
struction of the highway would
constitute misuse of the prop
erty and entitle her to "the aid
of the courts in restoring the
property to its proper use."
Bridge Also Planned.
The District wants the high
way built as a connection be-
tween far Northwest Washing
ton and Key Bridge.
Another complication in the
problem is that the Planning
Commission is thinking about a
new bridge across the Potomac
River to be constructed at a
point where Arizona Parkway
would be the main tie-in with
Northwest Washington.
Concerning the location of the
proposed bridge. Commissioner
Samuel Spencer said the Com
missioners planned to consider
it soon. The Planning Commits
sion has not approved the e
street location advocated by the
District Highway Department.
Mr.. Spencer was a guest at
the meeting of the Committee
of One Hundred yesterday.
