BRIDGE STARS BATTLE WORK AND WHITEHEAD Noted Experts Compete in Close Game Played Over Radio. MILTON C. WORK and Wilbur M. Whitehead made up their table for the Radio Bridge Game, broadcast from Station WFBM. Tuesday night, under the Times auspices, with two of Boston's famous players—Mrs. Prescott Warren, noted for her Radio Bridge lectures, and Major R. J. Herman, one of the best of the many excellent players in Army circles. Mrs. Warren was South, the Dealer. She held: Spades, 9,8, 7,4, 2,; Hearts, 6; Diamonds, K, Q, 9 , 8; Clubs, 8,5, 4. Major Herman, West, had: Spades, K. J. 10; Hearts, 8,7, 5; Diamonds, A, 6,2; Clubs, A, Q, 7, 2. Mr. Work, North, had: Spades, A, Q, 5; Hearts, A, J, 3; Diamonds, J, 10, 4; Clubs, K, J, 10, 3. Mr. Whitehead, East, held: Spades, 6,3; Hearts, K, Q, 10, 9,4, 2; Diamonds, 7,3, 3; Clubs, 9, 6. Mrs. Warren, South, passed. Major Herman, West, with three suits stopped, and the desirable No Trump distribution of 4-3-3-3, bid one No Trump. Work, North, doubled in formatorily. He held a typical No Trump hand, but Herman had anticipated the bid. In such case the informatory double serves its most useful purpose. Mr. Work, sitting over the No Trump bidder, had a distinct advantage in position, which was somewhat offset by the fact that his partner already had passed. However, the high card strength of Mr. Work’s hand, and the strong support iff would afford for a Major suit answer by his partner, justified Work’s hope that a game-going bid might be reached by means of the informatory double. In estimating the strength of his hand, Work followed his own general rule for a third or Fourth Hand informatory double after partner had passed. For such double his requirements are at least six high cards that probably will take triijks, distributed between at least three suits. This is one more high card than is required for a Second Hand double Work’s hand contained six high cards In the Ace and Queen of Spades, the Ace and Jack of Hearts, and the King and Jack of Clubs. In addition there were valuable intermediates in the 10 of Clubs and the Jack and 10 of Diamonds. He could count the Jack of Hearts as a high card in his hand, sitting over a No Trump, because it was accompanied by the Ace and another Heart. a a a W’HITEHEAD, East, bid two Hearts over Work’s double. Work’s double of Major Herman's No Trump did not relieve Whitehead of his obligation to show his partner any strong suit he might hold. Opening the second roimd of bidding, Mrs. Warren showed the high caliber of her game by bidding two Spades on her five Spades to the 9 spot. Her partner’s double presumably was made with the hope of a

Warns Against Colds New York Health Authority Point* Out Danger in “Common” Cold*. In a letter published in a recent issue of the New York Sun, the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association says this about colds: “This is the season for colds—yes ‘common’ colds. But like many other things that are called ‘common’ because they are so frequent, colds are no trifle—far from it. ‘‘Colds take more dollars and cents out of the workers pocket in one year than any other sickness. They are responsible for a greater loss of time from school and work than any other single cause. “Colds lead to very serious diseases * * * * . “Here are the big preventives: Plain, nourishing food; plenty of sleep; six glasses of water a day; frequent bathing (to train the skin to stand changes in temperature); sensible clothing; breathing through the nose; keeping the feet dry; plenty of fresh air by night as well as by day ”****. When you feel a cold coming on, stop at a drug store and get a box of Hill’s Cascara-Bromide-Quinine, the tablets in the red box. Take a couple immediately and cold will break up ift 24 hours. Hill’s ends a cold quickly because It. does the four necessary thing? at one time: Stops the cold, checks tht fever, opens the bowels, tones the sys tern. Costs only 30 cents.

COL.CHAS. A. LINDBERGH’S OWN LIFE STORY

CHAPTER XXI BY the first of April our organization was well under way, and about a week before the inauguration day we took two planes over the route to make any final arrangements necessary. On April 15, at 5:50 a. m.. I took off from the air mail field at Maywood on the first south-bound flight, and that afternoon we sent two ships north with the inauguration mail from St. Louis, Springfield and Peoria. During the summer months most of our route was covered during daylight, bat as winter approached the hours of night flying increased until darkness set in a few minutes after we left the field at St. Louis. With night flying and bad weather our troubles began. Our route was not lighted at first and the intermediate airports were small and often in poor condition. Our weather reports were unreliable and we developed the policy of taking off with the mail whenever local weather conditions permitted . We went as far as we could and if the visibility became too bad we landed and entrained the mail. One of the worst conditions we met. with was in flying from daylight into darkness. It was not difficult to fly along with a 100-foot ceiling in the daytime, but to do so at night was au entirely different matter, and after the night set in, if the weather became worse, It was not jmssible

response in a Major suit, manifestly a Spade. Whitehead’s intervening bid relieved Mrs. Warren of the obligation to bid: but Mrs. Warren rightly considered that with the King. Queen of Diamonds and five Spades she had the strength ,to bid voluntarily. Work, hei 1 partner, could not have expected her to hold much strength after her initial pass and Herman’s No Trump bid, and yet Work had requested her to bid. She therefore had no hesitation in naming the Spade suit. Herman bid three Hearts. He realized that-the strength lying over him in Work’s hand materially decreased his own trick-taking possibilities. Yet with three Hearts and strong support for the bid, were it not for his unfavorable position, Herman felt called upon to give one assist to his partner’s free Heart bid, as he knew that Whitehead would not have called a weak suit over an intervening double. ana WORK bid three Spades. All passed, and Mrs. Warren became Declarer with her contract three Spades. Herman opened the play by leading the 8 of Hearts, his highest of three small cards of his partner's suit. Dummy went down, and Mrs. Warren play from it the Ace of Hearts; Whitehead played the encouraging 9, and Mrs. Warren her

singleton 6. Mrs. Warren noted the desirabTl- j ity of leading both trumps and Clubs j from her own hand through Major Herman’s strong holding. The question of entries in her own hand therefore became of paramount importance. She had two entries in the Diamond suit and two more could be secured by Heart ruffs. Four seemed sufficient for her j purpose. According she proceeded to establish her Diamond entries by an unblocking lead of the Jack of Dia- j monds from Dummy. Whitehead played the 3; Declarer herself covered the Jack with the Queen to ! gain an immediate entry i fthe Ace gain an immediate entry if the Ace Herman led the 7 of Hearts; Dummy played The 3; Whitehead the 10; Mrs. Warren trumped with the 2 of Spades. Declarer led the 9 of Spades: Herman played the 10; Dummy finessed the Queen; and Whitehead played the 3. Dummy returned the 4 of Diamonds to put Declarer in for another trump lead through Herman’s strength. Whitehead played the 5 of Diamonds; Declarer the 9, Herman the 2. Declarer led another Spade, the 8 spot; Herman played the Jack; Dummy the Ace; and Whitehead the 6. Again Dummy returned Diamonds, the 10 spot; Whitehead played the 7; Declarer the King; Herman the 6. n a * Mrs. Warren then held the thirteenth Diamond. She could have led it and have discarded Dummy’s losing Jack of Hearts upon it. But she realized that should she do so, she would then have to lead a Club for a finesse which would later have to be followed by a second Club finesse, for which it would be necessary to enter her own hand again. Accordingly, instead of leading the thirteenth Diamond and discarding a Heart, Mrs. Warren led a Club, the 4 spot, for the first finesse, reserving the Jack of Hearts in Dummy for an exit card to be trumped in her own hand for the second Club lead. Mrs. Warren might have led the thirteenth Diamond and have discarded a Club on it, but such discard at that stage of the game could not have resulted in any advantage On Mrs. Warren’s 4 of Clubs Herman played the 2; Dummy finessed the 10; Whitehead plaved the 6. Dummy led the Jack of Hearts; Whitehead played the Queen; Declarer trumped with the 4 of Shades; Herman played the 5 of Hearts. Mrs. Warren then lead her thirteenth Diamond, the 8 spot; Herman discarded the 7 of Clubs; .Dummy the 3 of Clubs and Whitehead the 2 of Hearts. Mrs. Warren next led the 5 of Clubs; Herman played the Ace; Dummy the Jack; Whitehead the 9. 000 TI/TAJOR HERMAN led the King of Spades; Dummy played the 5; Whitehead discared the 4 of Hearts; and Declarer followed suit with the 7 of Spades. Herman, for the last trick, led the Queen of Clubs; Dummy won the

to turn around and return to daylight. With all of our difficulties, however, the mail went through with surprising regularity. During the first five months of operation we made connections on over 98 per cent of our trips. There are only two conditions which delay the air mail; fog and sleet. If the fog is light or local, and the sleet not too heavy, the planes continue even then. But when the ground becomes invisible and the fog covers the terminal fields, or when sleet freezes thickly on wings and wires, the planes can not continue. In such cases the mall is entrained and usually reaches its destination at least as soon as it would have if sent by train in the first place. Almost every day, in some section of the United States, mail pilots are flying over fog and through storms and rain to bring their ships through on schedule time. The mail plane is seldom delayed, and then only by impossible weather conditions. In the future these delays will become* fewer as radio navigation and instruments for blind flying improve, until it will be possible for the pilots to keep to their schedules under the worst conditions and in comparative safety. Another hazard, during certain times of the year, is the formation

King; Whitehead discarded the King Hearts; and Declarer played the 8 of Clubs. Mrs. Warren, as Declarer, took ten tricks altogether, scoring the game, 36 points. The adversaries scored 30 honor points for simple honors. The correct play of this hand was so involved that the majority of players unquestionably would have muffed it. Mrs; Warren not only had to conduct the play so as to drive out two adverse Aces, but she also had to provide entries in her own hand to take three finesses, and all of this in a manner that would involve the least risk. > ANSWER ‘MURDER’ CALL Police Find Man Intoxicated; Taken to Hospital Under Arrest.

of ice. This will gather on all parts of the plane, but mainly on the wires, propeller and entering edge of the wings. If it forms, slowly from a fog or light rain, a plane may be able to continue on its course for some time, but if a heavy sleet storm is encountered, the ice may form so rapidly that a ship can not stay in .the air over five minutes before it is so loaded down that the pilot will be unable to keep from losing altitude, even with his motor wide open. The actuad weight of ice is not as important as the loss in efficiency of the wing, due to the changed airfoil caused by itc gathering on the entering edge. Still, more loss is caused from the ice forming on the propeller itself. The blades take on a thick coatinb which continues to increase In depth until the ice from one of the blades is thrown off by centrifugal force. When this happens an excessive vibration sets in and continues until the opposite blade has thrown off its coating. One of the dangers which a mail pilot faces in flying at night through | bad weather and low risibility Is in | suddenly losing track of the ground ! due to a fog bank lower than the I rest. | If he has been flying very close to the ground it is not advisable to go lower, and often the only alternative is to climb up through the fog and attempt to find a hole somewhere to spiral down through. Being caught in a fog at night was the cause of two of my forced Jumps, the official reports of which follow: “I took-off from Lambert-St. Louis Field at 4:25 p. m., Sept. 16, 1926, anti, after an uneventful trip, arrived In Spingfleld, 111., at 5:10 p. m., and Peoria, 111., at 5:55 p. m. “I left the Peoria field at 6:10 p. m. There was a light ground haze, but the sky was practically clear witn but scattered cumulus clouds. “Darkness was encountered about twenty-five miles northeast of Peoria I and I took up a compass course.
