BY EASLEY BLACKWOOD

When Mr.. Masters two-cluh
response was promptly raised. he
sensed the possibility Of a slam.
He bid diamonds to show first
round control of that suit.
When his partner raised dia-
nnonds. too, he disliked the idea
Of merely going to five clubs.
which probably would be passed.
Instead he elected to bid four
hearts as a further slam try
and Mr.. Champion lost no time
in accepting the suggestion.
Mr.. Masters heart holding
should have been better for his
four-heart call. but his play Of
the hand justified his boldness.
Mr.. Dale would have done bet
ter II he had opened the play
with q heart, but he decided to
lay down the ace Of spades. On
came the queen Of spades and
here Mr.. Masters ruffed in
dummy. He led q small club to
his king and ruled his last spade.
Next he laid down dummy's
queen Of clubs and here Mr.. Abel.
who was anxious to see the queen
Of hearts finessed, discarded the
deuce Of hearts. This effort to
conceal the fact that he had the
king was Just q little too inno-
cent. Mr.. Masters was not
fooled.
He felt that If Mr.. Abel actu-
ally did not have the king Of
hearts he would not advertise
that fact--especially so early in
the hand, and when he surely
had a worthless spade which he
could have played.
So. placing the king Of hearts
on his right. Mr.. Masters looked
for some way to make the hand
other than through a heart
nnesse. 1t occurred to him that
II Mr., Abel had both king and
jack Of hearts and as many as
four diamonds, a squeeze would
operate.
Beginning at trick six he
cashed dummy's ace Of hearts,
returned to his hand with the
ace Of diamonds and ran OF
the rest Of his trumps. From
dummy he discarded all Of the
remaining hearts.
On the lead of the last trump
Mr.. Abel's hand was reduced to
the king Of hearts and three dia-
monds to the jack. It was his
play to the tenth trick. II he
dropped q diamond all three of
dummy's diamonds would be
good.
Hoping desperately that Mr.
Dale held the ten Of hearts. he
discarded the king Of that suit
But Mr.. Masters then cashed the
ten of hearts. discarding the nine
Of diamonds from the board
Dummy's king and queen Of dia-
monds took the last two tricks.

A WORD
TO THE WISE
BY MRS. FRANK COLBY

The word GUY, meaning "a
fellow; a rather low person." IS
traced to 351 years ago this
month when the famous gun
powder plot was discovered at
London on November 5, 1905.
A group Of religious malcon-
tents conspired to blow UP King
James and the British Par
lament. They secretly rented q
vault under the House Of Lords
and concealed there. under heaps
of Goals and faggots. more than
Ia tons Of gunpowder in SO bar
rels.
A Belgian, Guy FawkeS. was
hired to set of the tremendous
blast. which. If had occurred,
would have practically de-
destroyed the British Govern
ment, including the King and
much Of the nobility.
Fortunately. an anonymous
letter sent to Lord Monteagle
warned Of the plot in time toI
prevent its execution.
The conspirators we're run TO
earth, and eight. including Guy
Fawkes. we're executed.
In England, the anniversary
Of the discovery Of the gunpow-
der plot has long been celebrated
by bonfires. fireworks and the
carrying and burning Of effigies
Of Guy Fawkes In the streets.
Such effigies. usually Rrotesque.
straw-stuffed dummies. are
called guys"
From guy" the efhgy. came
the word in the meaning OF a
person Of outlandish dress and
manners. In the United States.
where Guy Fawkes day Is un-
known or Of no significance. the
word guy has come to be . word
OF somewhat indefinite mean
ing. It may be used contemptu-
ously (similar to the slang ex-
preston bozo. mug. character.
roughneck), or II may be COM
plimentary CHes q grand guy"
etc..
Actually, however. the name
guy Is OF French origin and
means "A guide or leader" And
from this meaning We have the
other word guy which desiR-

Minors 10 Study
Rule for Early
Roster SIashes

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 81
(R.-The minor league baseball
convention at Jacksonville, Fla,
December 2-7, will consider a
proposal which would force all
teams, major and minor, to slash
rosters to near the player limit
by opening day.
George M. Trautman, presi-
dent of the National Association
of Professional Baseball Leagues,
said yesterday the early player
cut would release 1872 major
League players to leagues of lower
classification on opening day.
The amendment, recommended
unanimously for adoption by the
l6-man committee on revision of
the Maior-Minor Agreement,
would force the majors to cut
their active player list from 40
to % by opening day, and to rs
after 81 days of play.
All leagues would be similarly
affected, feeding the top flight
talent to the lower clubs in time
to get the teams set for the
flag races instead of awaiting the
late cuts now effective.
I'm for this all the way, and
will fight for its adoption, y
Trautman said. THE supply OF
skilled players is not equal to
the demand, and this move would
help all baseball"
! Other amendments would per-
NIT the drafting, under certain
conditions. of three players in
stead of one from leagues from
Glass A upward through the open
classification; revise the bonus
rAe to make such players more
BILE for draft by other clubs
after being signed; take away

Fairfax Schools
To Play Three
Holiday Games

Three high school football
games in Fairfax County tomor-
row will share some of the gilt
ter with the traditional game
between George Washington
and Washington-Lee in Alexan-
dria.
Mount Vernon and Fairfax
clash for the 18th time at 2::30
pm. at Fairfax, George Mason
takes on Falls Church at 1890
am. at Falls Church, and Hern-
don is host to Madison at 2
pm.
Fairfax is a slight favorite to
win its third game in the series
with Mount Vernon, which has
won the other eight meetings.
The Rebels forfeited two games
this season because of an ineli-
gible player, leaving them a AS
record. but their three legiti-
mate losses have been to the
beSt-unbeaten Washington-Lee,
George Washington by just 60
and Highland Springs, cham
pion of the central district.
Mount Vernon has had an up
and-down season, but will bring
a AL record into the game
tomorrow. Its four defeats also
have been to powers-W-L. CIV,
Mclean and Wakefield.
In pre-game ceremonies at
Fairfax, bands of both schools
will perform on the field. The
Rev. Thompson Rodman of the
Church of the Holy Comforter
in Vienna will conduct the
Thanksgiving Day prayer. The
ceremonial guard drill team from
the Naval Receiving Station will
perform at half time.
Benefited by one of those
Fairfax forfeits. Falls Church
has a 2-6-1 record, while George
Mason has just the opposite,
6-2-1, against a weaker schedule
They played to a 6-6 tie last

meeting.
Herndon will try to improve
on a 2-7 record in the fourth
