BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridge la*ame THERE still are some people who will dart across a busy thoroughfare, regardless of traffic, and occasionally they escape miraculously without being injured. Some people play bridge in this same fashion —they simply will not stop and think. Take for example in the following hand—there isn’t any real difficulty in making three no trump, but the play all hinges on the first trick. The jaywalker will win the first trick with the lowest card possible and overlook the fact that an entry is needed in dummy.

Yon are almost certain that parttier is going to respond with two no trump and then the wrong hand will be playing it at no trump. If w'e open with a bid of one club, partner may pass.

you ought to be able to get there." Cherry was on her sept. “I suppose we'd better try it.” she said. We certainly can't stay here." Ten minutes later she and Pearson were in the car. The motor sputtered, then settled down to a steady purr and they were off In the darkness. „It- was difficult driving. Pearson and Cherry both kept their eyes on the road ahead. It was still raining, the drops coming down in a steady drizzle. The road that had been caked with dust before the rain was slippery and treacherous now. Part of the time Cherry could see only a few feet ahead. There was little conversation. Pearson was intent on his driving and the little 'girl had no wish to divert him. Once he spoke of a noise in the mechanism of the car. “Doesn’t sound right,” he said. “Well, if the old bus can get us through this I guess she'll deserve a little garage attention.’’ Cherry listened. Here was anew prospect of danger. “You don't think it's anything serious, do you?" she asked. Pearson gave her a quick glance. “Not unless it gets worse,” he answered shortly. His gaze returned to the road ahead. How different he was from the eager, impetuous Max of a short time ago. Cherry, relieved, was nevertheless puzzled at the change. Max's manner was completely impersonal. He scarcely seemed to know she was there. Once or twice his absorption seemed almost rude. She asked the time and wax told it was almost 10 o'clock. After that they settled down to a long silence. It was Cherry who cried out at the first sign of lights. “Look, Max!” she exclaimed. “Do you suppose that’s Scott Junction? Oh, if we can only telephone—!” It was the junction, a rural neighborhood including half a dozen stores, a garage and filling station. Pearson halted the car in front of the garage and went inside. “There's a telephone.” he announced when he returned a few* minutes later. “Do you want to come inside? I've put a call in for Dan.’’ A tiny corner of the garage had been walled off as an office. Inside

no trump bid, so, by deduction, we find only one bid left —an original bid of two no trump. A bid of two no trump is very strong bid. It does not deny a biddable four-card suit, but tells your partner that little is needed for him to go to three no trump, and that you have every suit protected. In response to two no trump, North should go to three no trump. The IMay West's longest' and strongest suit is clubs, therefore the four of clubs should be opened. Declarer plays the three from dummy, East plays the nine. Would you win the trick with the ten spot? If so, you can not make your contract. Before playing to this trick, count up the hand—you have one sure spade trick, one sure heart trick, two sure diamonds and now three clubs —but that is only seven tricks in all, therefore you need those tw'o diamond tricks in dummy. By the rule of eleven, you know that East has no remaining clubs higher than the four spot, therefore. West is marked with the queen of clubs. Why not win this first trick w'ith the ace, and then play your ace and king of diamonds? You now' can lead a small club — if West refuses to cover this, you win in dummy with the jack, while if he goes in with the queen, you play a small club from dummy and still have the ten spot with which to get into the dummy. In this manner it is possible for you to cash your queen and jack of diamonds, and in this w r ay make your contract of three no trump. If the first trick were won with the ten spot, declarer’s five would be captured by West’s queen and then the declarer w'ould have no small club with which to enter the dummy.

this dreary, dimly lighted place they waited. The operator reported Dan was not at the apartment. They called the News office. Five minutes later Cherry was calling eagerly, "Is that you, Dan? Oh, I'm so glad to hear your voice! No, we’re not at Willow Lake. The storm caught us and we missed the road. “We're at a place called Scott Junction. Yes, of course, we're all right only I’ve worried 1 What? You didn't start out? Yes, dear, I can hear you. Yes, we're coming back. You'll wait at the office? All right. Wait a minute—Max wants to talk to you.” * * * IT was well after midnight when the mud-spattered roadster drew up before the office of the Wellington News. The rain had stopped at last. Dan Phillips pulled the door of the car open. “Cherry!” he exclaimed. “Lord, what a time you must have had!” He grinned from the girl to Pearson. ‘‘Say, you two certainly look as though you'd had a soaking.” “Climb in.” said Pearson, “I think Cherry s anxious to get home.” They related their adventures during the brief ride. Cherry let Pearson do most of the talking. Phillips was sympathtic. He explained that the. storm had started just as Beach and he were ready to set out. “But how did you lose the way?” he asked. “I guess I was thinking about the storm and took a wrong turn,” Pearson explained. “I’ve only driven that road twice. “It was a dumb thing to do. I’ll admit. Cherry's half-frozen. She'd better get into some warm clothes and have something to drink.” “Come up for a while,” Phillips urged. The car has stopped in front of the apartment. “No, thanks. Want to be getting on to my own place. I’ll cal] you in the morning. Dan. Good night, Mrs. Phillips.” Cherry could not see Pearson's face in the darkness. She said, “Goodnight,” and followed Dan up the steps. It was so good to be home again! The little apartment had never been a more welcome sight. Cherry paused on the threshold ax Dan snapped on the living room light. “I was afraid we and never get here,” she said. “Oh, Dan, it was an awful trip!” “Never mind about that now, honey. I wax worried about you, too, until your call came. Better get into some other clothes. Is there anything in the place to eat? All I had was a couple of sandwiches.” Cherry discarded her rumpled frock for a warm negligee. She combed out her hair and got into comfortable slippers. When she returned to the living room, the fragrant odor of coffee was in the air. Dan had a flame in the gas stove and was rummaging about a shelf that held supplies. “There's rye bread.” Cherry informed him, “and cheese and a can of sardines. Wait, you'd better let me get them ” nun THEY opened the gateleg table and set out their midnight lunch. It contained all the Indigestible favorites. Dan had made the coffee strong. He found dill pickles and insisted on adding them to the menu. There was thick cream for the coffee and each of them drank two cups. Cherry felt Dan’s arm around her. She snuggled close. “I shouldn't have gone wjthout you.” she whispered. “I’ll never do it again. Oh, Dan, you don't know how frightened I was!” He didn’t and he never would, Cherry was thinking of Pearson's astounding announcement. Dan 6aid easily, “Don’t think about it, Cherry. It’s all over now.”

TARZAN AND THE ANT MEN

To creatures of the Ant Men’s size, the dense forest of thorns surrounding their country was far from impenetrable. But believing it stretched endlessly away, they rarely entered it. To Tarzan. however, this thorny barrier presented a difficult problem. Still, he never ceased to plan on a means of escape. Yet he was in no great hurry to attempt it, since he found the tiny Minunians interesting. Besides, it suited his present mood to 101 l in lazy ease in their city of Trohanadalmakus.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

But was it? They spent a lazy Sunday together. The day was divinely cool. They had a late breakfast and sat about the house reading the newspapers until the middle of the afternoon. Then Dan went out for a time and returned to take Cherry to dinner. They finished the evening with a bus ride—a treat they had not indulged in for weeks. Three days of uneventful calm fo’lowed. The heat wave seemed to be definitely broken. Cherry did not see Max Pearson, tried not to think about him.

The Alalus youth, son of The First Woman, ranged the forest in search of the ape-man. the only creature that ever had stirred within its savage, primitive breast any emotion even slightly akin to affection. But he did not find Tarzan. Instead, he fell in with two older males of his own species. Then the three hunted together as was the custom of these inoffensive creatures. His new acquaintances showed little interest in the weapons Tarzan had taught him to make and use, V*

She kept busy with housework. Dixie Shannon was p.wav on her vacation and Pinky, the kitten, was Cherry's only companion. On Wednesday evening she prepared a dinner that was one of Dan's favorites—pork chops stuffed with dressing, brocoli and a fruit salad. She noticed with disappointment that he did not seem to be eating. “Is there anything wrong with the chops?” she asked. Cherry waited. After a moment she said. “You're not eating. Dan. What's the matter? Aren't you feeling well?”

“ I'm feeling well enough.’* he assured her but he pushed back his chair. “Not hungry, I guess ’’ “Lord. Cherry!” he went on again in a burst of impatience, “don’t you get sick of this sort of life? Aren't you fed .up on it?” “Why. Dan, what do you mean?” “The same old thing over and over. Day after day! I've had enough of it. I want to get out of this town!” The girl was horrified. “But we can't. Dan! You don’t—oh, you don't really mean what you're saying, do you?” “Os course I mean it! What

The two older Mali fed upon fruits, nuts, and tubers. Not so the son of The First Woman. He brought in much small game and sometimes an antelope, for daily he was becoming more skillful with the bow and spear. Often he left what he could not eat for his two fellows. Thus they became permanently attached to him, or at least until some woman of their species should appear. Then their peaceful existence would be shattered as the powerful she would drag one of them away to her corral. . i* jy

In their slow, stupid minds these two wondered a little at their companion. He held his head higher, his gaze was less apologetic, and he strode with a firmer step and less caution. But perhaps they also smiled inwardly as they though of that certain moment when one of their brutish shes would come upon him., fell him with her bludgeon and drag him off by his hair to her cave. And then one day they met a huge, hairy Alalus woman, suddenly, in an open part of the forest
