BRANDS CHIVALRY AS UNNECESSARY

Chicago Woman Attorney Asserts Gallantry Is on Downgrade. Man who for centuries has suffered inconveniences and embarrasments in maintaining his chivalrous attitude toward the fairer sex may get a respite from his gallant role. As modern woman properly assumes her part on the stage of public life 'those special services that man has paid her may not always be necessary. “No longer is ‘removing a hat in elevators* or ‘standing in crowding busses’ the male’s unquestionable duty, according to Mrs. Bertha B. Moller, Chicago attorney, who believes that Ironclad rules of etiquette between sexes are being altered with changing social conditions. Mrs. Moller is here this week addressing various clubs and organizations on the question of “woman's rights.” Today she aired a few of the opinions, which she probably will express at the luncheon of the Indiana branch of the National Woman’s Party in the Spink-Arms! Saturday. Man need not trouble his brain thinking up nice things to say to his fair lady in this age. “We can do: without all this excessive flattery very well,” declared Mrs. Moller, who verbally flayed the custom of “setting the woman on a pedestal.’

Four Stars Compete in Bridge Game by Radio

THE exhibition players who took part in the sixteenth of Milton C. Work’s Radio Bridge games, broadcast Tuesday from Station WFBM, included Miss Rosamond Vahey of Boston, as noted for her golf as for her bridge; Mrs. Edward Goldsmith of Danville, 111., player, writer and lecturer on the game; John T. Slade of Hingham Center, Mass., and C. Drummond Jones, of St. Louis, both championship players. The hands were: Miss Vahey, Dealer, South: Spades, A, J, 9; Hearts, A, 8,6, 4; Diamonds, A, Q, 2; Clubs, A, J, 4. Mr. Slade, West: Spades, 8,5; Hearts, K; Diamonds, K, 10, 8,7, 3; Clubs, Q, 9,8, 7, 2. Mr. Jones, North: Spades, K, Q, 10; Hearts, 9,7, 3; Diamonds, J, 5,4; Clubs, K, 6, 5. 3. Mrs. Goldsmith, East; Spades, 7,6, 4. 3,2; Hearts, Q, J, 10, 5,2; Diamonds, 9,6; Clubs, 10. The only bid was one No Trump by Miss Vahey, South, which all passed. Slade, West, opened the play by leading the 7 of Diamonds, the stronger of his two five-card minor suits. From the North hand, which went down as Dummy, Declarer played the 4; East played the 9; and the closed hand won the trick with the Queen. Declarer could then count eight sure tricks—one Heart, two Diamonds, two Clubs and three Spades. For the additional trick needed for game, there were a number of possibilities . . . the establishment of a thirteenth Heart in the closed hand or a thirteenth Club in Dummy; or the Club finesse in the closed hand might produce the trick; or it might be obtained if the West hand led a second round of Diamonds.

Canvassing these four possibilities, Declarer appreciated that a Diamond lead from West could not be forced until the latter part of the hand at the earliest, and that if she should attempt to establish the Hearts she must lose two Heart tricks, and there was a great probability that East would win at least one of them and lead a Diamond. Declarer desired the Diamond lead, if made at all, to come from West. Furthermore, with Declarer holding seven Hearts divided 4-3 the odds were against establishing a thirteener: the probable division of the adverse six cards in such case is 4-2. But the chance for having the Club finesse succeed was even. So Declarer determined to try the Club suit, which contained two possibilities; the finesse came first, and whether that won or failed, she planned to try to make up a thlrteener in Dummy. Also, if the finesse lost, West would have the lead. a a a DECLARER could have put Dummy in with a Spade and led a small Club from Dummy at trick

Mrs. Bertha B. Moller

Mrs. Moller thinks that women eventually will assume leadership in public affairs, although today comparatively few women lead in the business and professional world. “One inequality we don't want pushed over on us,’” Mrs. Moller said, “is that a woman ox this country shall lose her nationality when she marries a foreigner.”

three for the finesse. But to have done so would have betrayed the Spade situation, and also would have required a finesse of the Clubs on the first round of the suit. When a finesse can be postponed until a second round it is advisable to do so; consequently to trick two Declarer led the 4 of Clubs from the closed hand; West played the 7; Dummy the King; East the 10. East’s play of the 10 was somewhat disconcerting to Declarer, as it indicated that East was short of Clubs and that consequently a thirteener could not be established. It was encouraging, however, in that it also suggested the probability that East held the Queen, and if so game was assured to Declarer. To trick three Dummy led the Trey of Clubs; East discarded the Deuce of Spades; Declarer played the Ace of Clubs; West the Deuce of Clubs.

Declarer’s effort, to get an extra trick in Clubs had failed, but she still load learned something of great value. She could place five Clubs with West originally, and inasmuch as West had started by leading Diamonds instead of Clubs, West must also have had five Diamonds, as he would not have opened a four-card suit headed by King in preference to a five-card suit headed by a Queen, both being minors. Thus West could not have more than three cards in the two majors. Unless these three cards were three Hearts and No Spades, which was most improbable because in that case East would have had seven Spades, Declarer had no chance of establishing a thirteenth Heart. Therefore three of her possibilities apparently were barred, and her only chance for making the gamewinning trick was the possibility of forcing West to lead a Diamond. a a a IN an effort to do tills, Declarer led to trick four the 9 ox Spades from closed hand. West played the 5; Dummy the 10; East the Trey. Dummy returned the King of Spades; East played the 4; Declarer the Ace, and West the 8. Declarer then knew that West had on’y one major card left. To see whether it was a Spade, Declarer led the Jack of Spades to trick six. West, appreciating that he might be forced to lead a Diamond, and realizing that it would cost a Diamond trick, tried to make Declarer miscount the Diamonds by discarding the 8 of Diamonds. Dummy played the Queen of Spades; East the 6. Declarer, however, was not deceived. She was confident that West had held at least five in each minor originally, and still had three Clubs and either four Diamonds or three Diamonds and a Heart.

If West had a Heart it must be j eliminated, so Declarer led the Trey ! of Hearts from Dummy, East played the 10, Declarer the Ace, and West : the King. To trick eight Declarer : led the Jack of Clubs. Had West refused to take this i trick he knew Declarer would have game, so he won with the Queen of ! Clubs, Dummy playing the 5 and East discarding the 7 of Spades. West then took the 9 and 8 of Clubs, to which tricks Dummy played the 6 of Clubs and 7 of Hearts; Declarer the 4 and 6 of Hearts. To trick eleven West led the 10 of Diamonds. Dummy played the Jack, East the 6 and Declarer the Deuce Dummy led the 5 of Diamonds, East discarded the Jack of Hearts. Declarer played the Ace of Diamonds, and West the Trey. Declarer lost the final trick to Easts Queen of Hearts, but she aireadv had won her nine tricks for game. She scored 30 for tricks ar.c! 100 in honors for her four Aces in one hand.

VOTE IS NEAR IN SENATE ON SUGAR TARIFF Margin May Be So Narrow Curtis May Cast the Deciding Ballot. By United Press WASHINGTON. March 5. A final hotly contested fight over the sugar tariff occupied the senate today, with advocates of the present duty of 1.76 cents a pound and supporters of the proposed 2-cent duty, doubtful of the result of the vote scheduled at 3 p. m. The margin either way seemed so narrow that Vice-President Curtis may have to cast the deciding vote. The issue is on tire 2-cent duty amendment of Chairman Smoot of the finance committee. The debate was opened by Senator Vandenberg (Rep., Mich ), who urged the

increased duty as farm relief for beet growers. Senators from cotton states, meanwhile, were studying a lengthy report by the agriculture committee urging drastic revision of the cotton futures act, which some of them have criticised. The committee recommended also creation of a governmental commission to be composed of the secretaries of agriculture and commerce and the attorney-general with authority to suspend or revoke licenses of “contract markets.” Brothers Sentenced COLUMBUS Ind., March 5.— Omer and George Keller, brothers, pleading guilty in Bartholomew CONSTIPATION RELIEVED . .
