BY BETTY BEALE
Star Staff Writer

Mrs. Kennedy, escorted by
Adlai Stevenson, arrived at
the performance of Car
men" last night Is minutes
after the curtain had gone
up, so their long-awaited en-
trance went almost unno-
ticed in the dark. Twas a
pity. The Kennedy glamour
coupled with the Stevenson
popularity would have made
for a most dramatic en-
trance.
The Opera Society produc-
ton was supposed to begin
at 8 O'Clock, but so many
people did not show until the
customary $3.50 curtain time
that the performance was
delayed by a half hour.
The First Lady's party
arrived at 8:45 thinking they
were only Is minutes late,
but their delay was unavoid-
able because Ambassador
Stevenson was late arriving
from New York.
This was not the first time
the former presidential
candidate had escorted Jac-
queline to a presentation of
the performing arts. A few
weeks ago he took her to see
the New York City Ballet in
New York. Last night they
gave culture another shot in
the arm by leading the Opera
Society's most brilliant audi
ence since its inception.

wife in time for the last act
of the opera.

A champagne reception in

The First Lady barely got
inside the door of the draw

during her 20 minutes at the
party. While she was sur

Hold Up Ace

BY ALFRED SHERWOOD

Opening lead: Diamond jack.
When West leads the jack Of
diamonds against the contract
Of four hearts. South should
refuse to win the first trick.
This hold-up play is necessary
to assure the contract.
See what happens II South
wins the first trick. He enters
dummy with a club to try the
heart finesse. West wins with
the king of hearts and leads
his other diamond.
East Is thus put in position
to win two diamond tricks.
West later gets q spade trick,
defeating the contract.
Wins Second Trick
Now see what happens If
South holds up his ace Of
diamonds at the first trick.
West leads the other diamond,
and South wins.
Declarer enters dummy with
a club to try the heart finesse.
West wins with the king Of
hearts but cannot lead another
diamond. East never gets the
second diamond trick. for
South eventually discards a
diamond on one Of dummy's
spades.
At q notrump contract, the
hold-up play Is executed to
shut out a suit. At o trump
contract. the purpose is usually
just to save one trick. Even
that may be very important.
