THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

NEW YORK, Sept. 28.—The smaller woman, five feet four and less, is finding coat selection simple this fall. Fashion's new coat silhouette is pleasant for her. The higher waistline and long, pencil line through the skirt make her seem an inch or two taller than the yardstick says. Os course a short woman, especially if she’s a bit plump, never should wear the dropped armholes you see in so many of the new coats. But she’ll find plenty of Just-as-smart ones with set-in sleeves. Because most shorter women rule out long-haired furs in any quantity (since they overwhelm her size and make her look chunky), these usually are taken out of coat selections for this type. Flat Furs Smart Instead, you’ll see little women’s coats with the smart flat furs such as mink, kolinsky, caracul, Persian lamb and beaver. That squarred shawl collar in the illustration could be in any of these. A medium long shawl collar, as a matter of fact, is probably the best kind a short woman could pick. Not long enough to make her look “all cellar,’ but w’ith enough of an up-and-down line to heighten her a little through the bodice. A plastron collar (cut in flat bib effect with a little upstanding collar at the neck) looks well too. That is, if it's not too wide . . , not out to the shoulder line. Smooth Materials Best Os course, materials should be smooth and unbulky. Smart broadcloths and fine crepes, or some of the indistinct diagonals. If you’re a woman of five feet four or less, you’ll avoid the dumpy look you dislike so much by watching such points, in all other clothes as well as coats. We’ve prepared a bulletin to help you, showing which details of the new fall clothes are most flattering to smaller women. If you’d like it, send the coupon. AMOS PARRISH THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES’ N.

Contract Bridge

BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridge League OF all the perplexing problems which confront a bridge player, the one which arises most frequently is exemplified by the following hand from the national masters' contract pair championship. The decision between doubling the opponents and continuing with one's own suf? must be made many times in each session of play. It is just as puzzling to the skilled player as to the novice, and, while the expert will decide correctly in a greater number of cases, he still is far from perfection. If the decision is close, distribution usually is the determining factor. A freak hand containing very long and very short suits usually will play better at one’s own declaration. while a balanced hand with strength distributed in several suits is adapted better to defensive play. How these principles are applied in practice was w r ell illustrated by Sir Derrick J. Wernher and Geoffrey Mott-Smith, playing East and West, respectively, opposed by W. K. Barratt and John Rau playing North and South.

two hearts, and West two spades. The bidding continued in a spirited manner, with North bidding three hearts, east three spades, and South four hearts. Mott-Smith, in the West, feared that South could make four hearts, so he overcalled with four spades, scarcely expecting to make that contract, but willing to take a small sacrifice. Barratt in the North, having a balanced hand, with high card tricks in three suits, doubled. East passed, and Rau, in the South, found himself in a difficult situation. He knew the spade contract could not be set more than one or two tricks, which would be small compensation for giving up a game in hearts. . From his partner's bidding, he judged that the hearts and clubs were solid, no spade tricks could be lost, and North very likely had a diamond trick. So Rau decided to try for five hearts. Mott-Smith, in the West, having four hearts in addition to his other values, doubled. North passed and now the decision was put up to Sir Derrick in the East. Due to the extremely unbalanced distribution of his hand, he con- j eluded that it must be played at his suit, and bid five spades, which again was doubled by North. The Play The result of the hand showed that each player had bid his cards perfectly. East was obliged to concede one heart, one diamond, and one club, therefore was defeated one trick at his five spade contract and lost 100 points. South could have made five hearts doubled for a score of 650 not vulnerable, but he could not make six, so he had to be satisfied with the 100-point penalty. (Copyright. 1932. NSA Service.
