Wives Hold Career Edge Over Unwed Spinsters in Minority in Hall of Fame Roll Call. RV GRETTA PALMER Timn Writer XTEW YORK, Jan. 17— It was the IN belief nf the worldly William Makepeace Thackeray that it was only ‘after Jason left her that Medea became a learned woman and a great enchantress.” Which is a rather fancy way of suggesting that a woman will not get a great deal accomplished in her own right as long as she has a man around to absorb her energies and interests. Weil, we have a rather better opportunity today to study the deserted Medea than was offered by the prim age in which Mr. Thackeray lived and wrote. Indeed, it is doubtful whether the respectable society of his age consciously included a single woman deserted after a brief affair—even a single blameless divorce. What do we find when we moderns put to the test this theory that a broken heart is the perfect cornerstone on which to build a successful career? If wp take a firm hold on ‘ Who’s Who,” and look up the first outstanding women who came to mind, we find that it is not so. If we rustle through the most bulging envelopes devoted to women in a newspaper library w’e find it disproved. And very likely the same result will be found if we run over the lust of our women friends and check their emotional status with their accomplishments. Eminent and Married “The first woman cabinet member is married. The first woman to fiy the Atlantic is married. The V inner of last year’s Pulitzer prize for the best novel is married. The v oman usually mentioned as America s outstanding young actress is married. And their Jasons are right at their elbows, helping them along. Bang in the position of a bereft and manless woman does not. on the other hand, seem very often conducive to accomplishment. The woman who finds herself in that, tragic role has usually suffered so great a loss of self-esteem that it is hard for her to believe herself capable of doing anything that is better than third-rate. And so she does not trouble to try. She seems far more likely, indeed, fen waste her powers in gathering a great many skulls to try to compensate for the one she lost, or to take to self-faity or frivolity as a gubstitute for work. Love Need Not Be All To be in love and to be loved back does not exhaust a person's energies. It is far likelier to increase them. fi woman happy in love or marriage has an emotional peace and security which irradiates her efforts and fives her faith in her own abilities. She dares to take a chance at trying some new piece of work because she knows that, even if she fails, she will have someone near her to give a value to life and to rave her from complete despondency. There used to be an old theory gbroad that it was the bachelors who made the greatest progress in their careers "He travels the fastest who travels alone.” was its summation—and very convincing it sounded, too, until people began to look around them and count the heads of the men who stood above the crowd at 50. and to discover them accompanied by a wife and family, comp’ete to several offspring. 1 The old fallacy still attaches in large measure to the woman with interests beyond her home. Do you suppose that it can ever be dispelled by the simple fact that the outstanding work being done by women in the world today is being done by wives?

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W E. M’KENNEY Srrrrtary American Briilee la-a*ue JUST because you make an original bid of one no trump—the strongest original one bid in the Sims system of bidding—it does not necessarily mean that the contract should be played at no trump. A bid on the part of an opponent may upset your well-laid plans or warn you away from no trump and into a suit declaration. Or. like the declarer in today’s hand, you may stumble into the proper declaration. South is justified in making an original bid of one no trump in pteference to a spade, due to t lie ttnance position he holds. However,

with West’s hand, I would prefer the negative double. Why bid two hearts simply because you hold 100 honors when your partner may be void in hearts and have four spades? The worst take-out that East can make is two clubs and you still can bid two hearts. By risking the two heart vulnerable overcall, you may get doubled end get set very badly on the hand. Due to the fact that partner opened with a no trump, North makes a good bid of three clubs to show his five card suit. South, not having the hearts stopped, now must show his suit. North’s raise to four spades is rather optimistic. a * u WEST opens the king of hearts, which is won with declarer’s ace. A diamond is returned and the finesse taken, which holds. A heart is ruffed and a diamond returned, South winning with the ace and ruffing another heart. A small diamond is played back and ruffed with the deuce of spades. South plays his last heart and ruffs with the eight of spades, which prevents East from over-ruffing. A small club is returned, South winning with the ace and leading the queen of clubs, which West trumps with the four of spades. Regardless of what West does, he can make only one more trick. It looks as though his best play is to lead the jack of spades. South will win w T ith the queen and lead the three of clubs, which still permits him to lose only that trick, thus making five-odd, doubled. (Copyright. 1934, by NEA Service. Inc.)
