Thousands in Parade Not since war days has Indianapolis seen a parade the like of which brow a crowd of more than 200.000 jv’nple along the line of march Monday. Delivery trucks, coal wagons, and all manner of industrial vehicles were transformed into ornate floats, flower bedecked and rivalling the rainbow for color. "The butcher, the banker, the candlestick maker" and their fellow artisans, the plumber, the qas station man. the auto man. the radio man. as well as barbers, printers, coal dealers and every industry imaginable turned out floats which demonstrated the imagination and ingenuity ol commerce. The brewers' big horses—dapple gray and prancing- pulled cases of M ii nor brew, followed by a giant p : ir bear rampant on the float of the Polar Icc Cos. Girl in Endurance Feat A pretty girl, holding aloft a r T i -mache torch and dressed in flowing white robes, stood bravely aop a float for the whole length of the parade, representing the S' lute of Liberty for the Grocers Association. A miniature playground, complete wi h trees, Bowers, shrubs, slides, and other play apparatus, on which city children played, drew applause from the crowd lining Meridian street and other avenues of the parade. Kievan's sent a complete yacht, mounted on an automobile, with a skipper in oil skins at the helm. Allied Florists entered a beautiful flower garden, mounted on an automobile. Standard Oil was represented by a red brick filling station, with a pert young lady parked in front, while two youthful attendants filled her car with gas ‘ George Washington crossing the Delaware" was tno float of the East Washington Street Merchants' Association represented by stalwarts in colonial uniform rowing a boat. Many Other Floats Other concerns—some 200 of them —also entered floats which were outstanding. As the motor cavalcade swept along the streets, the floats presented a kaleidoscope of color which drew gasps of admiration from the crowd. Some mention should be made of the out-of-town floats which patriotically answered the call of Indiana Recovery day. Shelbyville contributed a Blue Eagle float with a dozen pretty girls waving blue parasols. seated beneath a gigantic NRA eagle. Lafayette sent a float on which was mounted a real live elephant and a donkey, to symbolize the politically dead and the living.

Contract Bridge

BY W F.. M KKNNKV Srcrl4r\ Atnrrirjn Rridtf I ri(u lITHY go on a rampage of bidW ding just because you hold a long, solid major suit? When you need definite high card strength from parner In order to make game it mav be better to pass your hand originally when m first or second position, and you can then enter the bidding on a later round. The great trouble in opening such a hand originally may find you playing it at a slam when even game may bo difficult. Tins was clearly brought out in the following hand, which was recently played in a duplicate match Several players opened South's hand with one spade and as a result, at several tables they played the hand at a slam contract which was easily defeated, and even those who arrived at game experienced some trouble in making However, with proper bidding and good play the hand can be made. The bidding should be South pass. West one club. North need get in no hurry to do anything about this and should pass East would overcall with one heart. South bids one spade. West bids two diamonds. North makes a constructive response of two spades East passes and South goes to three spades, while North carries the contract to four. The ace and king of hearts were immediately cashed by West, who shifted to the ten of clubs. South winning with the king South then played six straight spade tricks, bearing down to the ace and ten of diamonds and the ace and jack of clubs in dummy. ,

West was forced to bear down to the queen and nine of clubs and the king and jack of East kept two diamonds and two hearts. South now led the deuce of diamonds. and when West was careless enough to play the jack, the dummy went up with the ace. immediately returning the ten of diamonds, throwing West in the lead and forcing him to lead away from his quern-nine of clubs. However, if West goes right up with the king of diamonds, this will force North to win with the ace. and all that he can do is to cash his acc of clubs. Herg we find a hand with plenty of quick tricks and good support from par;ner going down at four spades. It is this type of hand which proves that distribution is equally important, if not more so, than high cards.
