ROOSEVELT TO KEEP CLOSE TO WHITE HOUSE Extensive Changes Seen in Offices to Insure Work in Private. by Srrippt.Jfrytrnrrl Xeiripapcr Altinnrg WARM SPRINGS Ga Feb. 3 President-Elect. Roosevelt’s frequent "bedroom interviews" with the press have led to definite reports that both the private and executive offices of the White House will undergo radical alterations after March 4 One report says that Mr Roosevelt will visit the executive offices only in the morning, and hold his more important conferences at the mansion itself from noon on. Another report—and both come ; from persons close to the next President—suggests that he will do almost all his work in offices to be built in the basement of the White House. Although a novelty, this change,, in fact, will be a return to the system of early colonial days. Under L’Enfant’s original plan for * the capital, the front of the White House was to face the beautiful landscape reaching down to the banks of the Potomac river. Office May Be in Basement Mr. Roosevelt, according to one plan, will make this rear entrance the principal approach to the White House. For one thing, he can go in through the ground floor, j and have more easy access to the elevator reaching the upper story. Near the rear basement door may be constructed offices for conferences, as there were in the old days. Here, in the earliest years, was the President’s diplomatic reception room, and receiving diplomats and war debt representatives—on the quiet—will be one of Mr. Roosevelt's biggest jobs. The belief that' the next President will sequester himself is fortified by another quality he exhibits. Quite like Mr. Hoover, he is averse to premature publicity. Likes to Fool the Press Mr. Hoover once said that he "did not see why the press wanted advance or incomplete reports any more than an engineer would want to threw open a half-finished bridge." The same attitude animates Mr. Roosevelt. He likes to fool the press j in a good-natured way, and to elude : their traps; he prides himself on j his supposed ability to spar with i them on their own terms. Even I members of his family, who usually j attend his press conferences, enjoy j the spectacle. “Isn’t, it clever the way he handles j you?” asked one member of the President-elect’s household. "And | can’t he make ycu feel small when j he wants to?” There was, of course, no answer. But if alterations will give him greater secrecy in dealing with world and domestic problems, he probably . will order them. SCIENCE EDITOR NAMED Prof. Richard S. Lull Successor to Dr. Ernest Howe.

CONTRACT BRIDGE BY W. E. M KENNEY SerretarT American Bridge Leasrne Today’s hand was played in duplicate at a number of tables, with East and West vulnerable, North and Sm/th not vulnerable. The approach bidders who held the South hand opened with one spade, which West overcalled with two diamonds and, in most cases that became the final contract. In

one case, South bid two on trump, which contract was defeated. One over one bidders who held the South hand preferred to open with one no trump in spite of the biddable spade suit, because of the tenace positions in the hand and the distributed high card strength. This usually became the final contract, for the opening no trump made West’s bid too dangerous and neither North nor East had sufficient strength to overcall. West reasoned that the opening no trump bid showed three and one-half high card tricks well distributed over three or four suits. In view of his own holding, there could be about only one high card trick between North and East. If North should hold the missing high card strength and the distribution should be unfavorable, tt heavy penalty certainly would result. Those who would be inclined to bid the West hand defensively over a no trump respectfully are referred to my previous article, in which a hand fully as strong as this was defeated 1,400 points. • The Play West opened the four of diamonds and dummy’s ten held. Declarer wisely played for the hearts, preferring to have his tenaces in the other suits led up to if possible. West won with the singleton king and led another diamond. Winning the diamond with the queen, South played another heart and East was forced to let it hold to keep from establishing the suit in dummy. Declarer now played the ace of diamonds and West made a brilliant play by putting in the jack. He could see that he was about to be thrown into the lead and desired to establish an entry in the East hand. 1 Declarer’s next lead was the king of clubs, which West won with the ace. West returned a small diamond to put East into the lead, declarer discarding a small spade. East cashed his ace of hearts and returned the jack of spades. By this time declarer had a perfect count on the West hand, so he went up with the ace of spades and returned the queen. This threw West in the lead to make his last diamond, but he was obliged to lead up to the queen ten of clubs at the end. By virtue of good card reading South was able to make one no trump in spite of West's brilliant defensive play. (Coavricht. 1933. bv NEA Service. Inc.)
