Quilting Is Revived as Hobby Here Thla 1* the first of two special article* on quilting as a pastime for modern women. Indianapolis Is having a revival of one of the oldest social customs of our country, in the fast-growing hobby of quilt making. A generation' or so ago, the gents el lady met her friends for a social hoflr of work and conversation over a rather cumbersome set of quilt fames. Present day oistom bids fair to reproduce just such scenes in the living rooms of local hostesses. As yet, the “quilting party’’ lias not been reproduced, but many v omen here are piecing quilts, and a few are quilting them. Churches and other organizations hove quilt displays, and quilt teas, where examples of the patch-work a t are displayed. Some are old quilts that have been handed down from generation to generation; other.v quite as lovely in workmanship and materials, are the product of our modern day. Quilting Frames Modified , The quilting frames of today are rrudh like the old ones our grandmothers gathered around, except that they have been modified to make them easier to adjust. The most expensive set has a wooden cogged Wheel, for adjusting the frames, and is arranged so that eight can work at it at the same time. Various stamping desigas for quilting are available. They are old patterns, sometimes slightly modified, but the careful observer can find in them reproductions of the tiny stitched designs on her grandmother’s and great-grandmother’s quilts. Among these quilting designs are the “Pineapple,” ‘Peacock Fan," “Cable,” “Feather Circle” and “Lace Vein Feather.” Names Given by Pioneers Originally these designs probably were the work of some pioneer woman, Now they are reproduced on the conventional stamping paper used in the art needlework craft, with perforated holes for tracing the design on the pieced quilt./ According to a book on the art of quilting, by Ruby Short McKiin, the names of the old quilt patterns which after many generations are being used again, form an interesting history of the women pioneers in our country. One can follow the, brave, young pioneer woman in her journey across the plains and perils of an uncivilized country by the names of the quilts which she planned, originated and 'pieced. Outstanding among these are “London Roads,” “Ocean Wave,” “Lost Ship,” “Drunkards Path,” “Crossed Canoes,” “Bear’s Paw,” “Burgoyne’s Quilt.” “Road to California,” “Wild Goose Chase,” “Rose of Sharon,” “Folded Love Letter,” "Tippecanoe and Tyler Too,” “Lincoln’s Platform,” “Road to Oklahoma” and many other picturesque and imaginative names. Pattern From Orange Peel The “Lafayette Orange Peel” pattern is explained in Mrs. McKim’s booic. Once when the Marquis was being feted in Philadelphia, a young woman guest at the banquet took home as a souvenir anew fruit, an orange imported from Barcelona. To preserve and treasure the memory of the gala days in Philadelphia, she made a pattern for a quilt from the peel of the orange. Other quilt names can be traced to equally historical and interesting origins. These patterns as worked cut by local women will be described in the next article. SORORITY WILL~ BE ENTERTAINED Beta chapter of Phi Tau Delta sorority will entertain Wednesday at the home of Mrs. E. J. Hoyt, 1407 Fairfield avenue.

Grace Hayes Sets a High Standard in Her New Act Ross and Bennett by Their Youth and Eagerness to Please Have an Offering Which Is a Compliment to Vaudeville. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN ONE of the very few who are highly successful in jumping from the musical ccmedy and radio fields of entertainment to vaudeville is Grace Hayes. . The fact is, in many 1 really dread seeing* some of the ether entertainers come to the variety stage because they just do not undenjtand the demands of vaudeville. f Not to with Miss Hayes. She knows all three fields of work and she is intelligent enough to give her best thought, showmanship and ability to zV. three. I ant going to rate Miss Hayes and her act as one of the ten best of the current variety season when ITnake my selection. Here

is one woman who does not'just walk on the stage and permit her reputation to put her over,* She uses two pianists for her regular song routine. This routine is a revelation in originality as Wfell as material. . You will notice real art in a nifty little nothing of a song

about a wise girl who “met the governor.” It is the way Miss Hayes develops this number that makes it sparkle and stand out as a winner. Her number about always being a bridesmaid instead of the bride is put over in the same intelligent style of 'all of her numbers. You think "that she has reached the peak of her

The voice by the aid of a “mike” then goes into nutty impersonations of radio leaders and then invites Mses Hayes tojjet on the air and she does. When the ovation subsides, Miss Hayes brings on her young son and declares that he wrote the act and

Contract Bridge

BY W. E. MTtENNEY Secretary American Bridge League 'T'HE alluring award cf the new grand slam bonus, which is 2,250 points, is apt to cause a great deal of wild shooting on the part of many money bridge players when they think there is any chance of making the grand slam. In the past, most players were willing to stop at a safe small slam, but- now, With this extra large award as the prize, they will take the gamble on a doubtful grand slam. Today’s hand is a good example of this. While I do not think that the grand slam should! be bid, H. Auslander of Pittsburgh played the hand well after bidding the grand slam. |

The Bidding SOUTH bid one diamond. The hand is not strong enough for |an original no trump. West passed. | and Auslander, in the" North, bid i three no trump. This bid of three no trump is a slam try. It does not deny a biddable suit, nor does it deny support in diamonds. South* accepted the slam try by bidding four no trump. This was little optimistic, as South should have had a five-card suit to have accepted the slam try. . After the bid of four no trump, North well knew that there was a small slem in the hand, and decided to take the gamble* for the grand slam, hoping for an advantageous lead or a squeeze play to give him the grand slam. The Play EAST had a. difficult opening. Not Wanting to open away from j either hearts or diamonds, as the 1 jack of hearts or the queen of diamonds might be the trick that would set the graftd slam, he decided to open his short suit, and led the seven of spades. West played the ten, and Auslander won the trick with the jack! The opening lead of the seven in- | cheated to him that East had opened j a short suit. He decided to play East for the queen of dia *.onds and led the fitf* i of diamonds, finessing the jack in dummy. A small heart was returned and won by North with the king. , North led the five of hearts, winning in cfhmmy with the ace and then returning thp four of hearts. West discarded the deuce of spades and North won the trick with the queen. East now had the good jack of hearts. Declarer then led the ace of diamonds, and when West's nine dropped, this warned him that' East now held the queen and eight of dii-.mcnds. Ncrth next took three rounds of clubs, winning the last club in dummy. The ace of spades was led xrom dummy and East followed with the four. And now the squeeze play—the n.r.e of spades was led from dummv and won by tile declarer in .the North with the king of spades. East is helpless—he holds the jack of hearts and the eight and queen cf diamonds. If he discards the jack of hearts, North's ten would !;e good, while if a diamond is dis-

is the “voice.” Here is a clever chap and here is a fine, intelligent and clever act. Vaudeville needs more entertainers like Miss Hayes. There is another act on the bill that has this same quality of class as well as the quality to please. Am speaking of Ross Bennett. The man is an excellent dancer and all of his nutty comedy with hjs partner, a girl, is of the best taste. Here is an act that actually makes one fee! better after meeting them. There is some good aarobatic dancing as well as some amusing satire on the dance in the offering of Naro Lockford and company. Alfred Latell is still the artist^in impersonating a dog. He has long been a standard act. Weak material handicaps Waller and Lee. A1 Verdi goes in for eccentric violin and cello playing but when he wants to play he can play. The movie is “The Sport Parade” and features Marian Marsh and Joel McCrea. Now at the Lyric. a a Other theaters today will offer: “He Who Gets Slapped” at the Playhouse, a Civic theater opening;’ "Mr. Robinson Crusoe” at the Palace, “If I Had a Million” at the Circle, “Rio Rita” on the stage and “Ycu Said a Mouthful” on the screen at the Indiana, and “Too Busy to Wcrk” at the Apollo.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

BREWERS SEEK STATE CONTROL OF LEGAL BEER Industry’s Representatives Are Divided on Product’s Alcoholic Content. 4 BY RAYMOND CLAPPER Lnited Press Staff Correspondent (Copyright. 1932. bv United Press) WASHINGTON, Nov 29.—Representatives of the brewing industry hope that congress, if it legalizes beer, will permit it* to be marketed on the same basis as soft drinks, subject to state regulation. The brewing industry, hungry after a decade of prohibition, will be thankful for anything congress does. But its leaders have some suggestions they will urge on congress. First, they hope the problem of distribution will be turned over to the states. This is a delicate subject, and brewery repressntatives are hesitant to commit themselves to details. Close to Saloon Issue In general, they want the proposed new beer to be treated as existing near beer since it officially would be declared nonintoxicating by act of congress. This goes close to the crux of the saloon problem, which is one of the most troublesome features of the problem of repeal or modification. Simon-pure anti-prohibitionists want no federal strings on either repeal or modificartion. But a number of later reluctant converts want to put restrictions into any federal action. This group is somewhat of a blance-of-power group, and it not disposed to be ignored. Differ on Alcoholic Content Two groups within the brewery industry differ as to alcoholic content. The United States Brewers Association dates back to pre-Volstead days, and is headed by Jacob Ruppert. It includes the famous old houses of Anheuser-Busch, Pabst, Schlitz and Val Blatz. It favors beer of at least 3 per cent, and not more than 3.2 per cent alcohol byweight. The latter limit would be equivalent, this group says, to 4 pei< cent by volume. A younger groyp, the Associated Producers of Cereal Beverages, is headed by William L. Goetz, St. Joseph, Mo. It favors an outside alcoholic limit of 2.75 per cent by weight,' which, it is claimed, equals 3.44 per cent by volume. Fight Higher Tax The Ruppert old-line brewers group say that really palatable beer can not be made with less than 3 per cent alcohol, not because of the alcohol, but because a lesser limit overdilates the solids of the beer. The cereal beverage group apparently believes good beer can be made at a lower figure, and believes its 2:75 per cent limit would not only pass the supreme court test more readily, but would stand a better chance of being allowed to go through the regular channels of distribution now in use for near beer. Representatives of the brewers association will meet here later this week to prepare their case for presentation. As to taxes, the present law provides a tax of $6 a barrel. The brewers would like to see it reduced somewhat, to encourage the start of the revived, industry. They would strongly oppose Increasing this figure on the ground that it would run up the price so r as to restrict sale, while encouraging home brew and bootleg beer.

Helen Lee Worthing

Apartment House Owner Has Miss Worthing Put in Psychopathic Ward. By United Press LOS ANGELES, Nov. 29.—Helen Lee Worthing, former Follies beauty, whose sensational court disputes with her Negro husband, Dr. Eugene C. Nelson, brought her into the limelight, has been placed in the psychopathic ward of the general hospital. Miss Worthing was placed in the psychopathic ward on the complaint of Horace Anderson, resident of the Glendale apartment house where she lived. He /charged Miss Worthing had threatened to end her life, suffered from delusions, and imagined persons were throwing objects at her. A report of Genevieve Dodge, psychopathic parole officer, that Miss Worthing was discouraged, and talked incoherently, also was included in the lunacy commission records of the case. At a court hearing last week, attorneys for the physician Nsaid that S3OO a monthly alimony he had been paying her “had been used to buy narcotics.” Dr. Nelson sought an annulment of their marriage. Miss Worthing previously won an interlocutory divorce decree. 200 Hurt in Anti-Jew Riots By United Press LWOW, Poland, Nov. 29.—Police from nearby towns were brought here today to help maintain order after anti-Semitic rioting in which 200 persons were injured, eightynine of them being taken to hospital.
