Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M'KENNEY Secretary American Bridge League SOME players spend hours working on double dummy problems. Usually the plays on them are so tricky,' however, that I don’t know whether they do much to improve your game. In actual play, you can see only your own hand and that of dummy, while in problems you can see all four hands. My daily problems are not presented* as double dummy problems—they are actual playing problems. However, I had an interesting little problem sent to me todav bv Malcolm G. Thompson. Albans. L. 1., N.

little hand and I thought it would be of interest to you, so here it is. a o SOUTH has a good opening two bid—only three losing cards. North makes the natural response of three hearts. South shows the second choice when he bids diamonds. North supports this. South shows length in spades by rebidding ! the spades and inviting a slam. I believe at this point, that North I should support the diamond con- | tract to a slam. However, he wantj rd to make sure that his king of | hearts was not led through so he ! went to six no trump. a a a IN the play, East’s opening lead was the five of clubs. Here is i the trick in the hand—throw away ! the ace of diamonds on this first ; trick! Then lead the queen ot clubs and throw away the king of diamonds. Cash the ace and king of clubs and discard the two hearts from dummy. Lead the nine of diamonds—be- j ing careful to reserve that deuce. Win in dummy with the queen. Return to your hand by leading the eight of diamonds and winning with the ten. Cash the jack of diamonds and then lead the deuce of diamonds which throws West into the lead. West, having nothing left but j spades, is forced to lead into the dummy’s set-up spade suit. Since East has only the king and ten of spades, the king will fall on the second lead. The trouble with those who failed to make the hand is undoubtedly that they paid no attention to West’s apparently worthless hand. (Copyright. 1934. NEA Service. Inc.l

Helen Ready, Ayres Copy Writer, Visits New York on Whirlwind Style Trip Finds Among Other Interesting Things That Knitted Suits Are Very Suitable for Traveling. This is the finl of a series of fashion stories beinr written br experts directing the fashion panorama of local stores. BY HELEN READY Fashion Copy Writer for I- S. Ayres A Cos. It 1 kept a diary, which I never would have, it would have gona something like this: • - • Sunday. July 15.—Arrived New York at 9:30, where 1 learned that sheer suits. Knitted suns and some dark cottons arc the Dost things to travel in. One vision in white wasn't a vision at breakfast in the morning. 1 also learned that you do sleep under blankets on air-conditioned trains, that is. if you sleep on trains. Breakfast at Joe Nathan's, who has sublet Omar Khayam's apartment, which happens to be . quite the '•ritziest” one I was in. It's a perfect model of authentic early American and everything in it is worth a king's ransom. Not being a king, or even a queen. I walked with care and touched nothing! Lunch at the sidewalk case of the St. Moritz. As it sounds you cat right out on the sidewalk and all New York passes between your icetea and your sandwich. O. O. Mclntire says it has the mast Parisian atmosphere of any place—which is decidedly something when you consider that all New York has gone in for outdoor dining and drinking in a big way. A champagne cocktail party about 5 where my eyes got bigger every time a cork popped. (You can take a girl out of the country, but you can't take the country out of the girl.) On to the Waldorf grill for dinner, where I found that nobody dresses in New York on Sunday and that this year, contrary to all other .years, mod women were wearing light summer clothes. Lots of white and prints and many white shoes and hats, the like of which I've never seen before in that city. On to Leon and Eddie's, one of the few speakeasies holding up its head, danced a tango, believe it or not. and then, despite the way it sounds, home to bed at quite an early hour. Monday, July 16—Went through the stores at which I was inclined to turn up my Our fall merchandise measures up beautifully with theirs and they’re still intent on summer things. To lunch at the Chatham Walk, the first of the hotels where outdoor dining started and where all New York is supposed to gather. Again amazed at the amount of summer clothes. Some few sheers, but many tailored white things. Then to the stores again, drawing our own conclusions. Dinner at Hoagy Carmichael's apartment—the little boy who more than made good in the big city. His apartment is beautiful with a grand little porch, done up in quite the Ayres’ fashion in porch furniture. He’s studying now, and in the meantime composing an operatic piano thing, that's far and away the best thing he's ever done. Don’t take my word for it. Deems Taylor thinks highly of it, too. ana ass st She Learns About Fashions Tuesday, July 17.—T0 the Clinic and I learned about fashions from them. Wait till I tell you all! Mrs. Prutzmann and I went to the St. Regis for lunch. Perfectly beautiful and music while you eat! Sat next to two of the best-di'essed women I ever saw, with gorgeous, nice “down east” voices, and across from them a beautiful blond who wasn’t born that way, being taken to lunch by a man old enough to be her grandfather. New York! Two dowagers, in from Westchester, they might nave been, dressed in dark prints with intriguing hats, and next to them what could be nothing else but a gangster and his moll! New York! At 6 to the Park Lane for cocktails where the smart world gathers after the day is done, and again only light clothes in evidence. Then to the Coq Rogue where I heard for the first time that priceless ballad “Miss Otis Regrets She Can Not Lunch Today.” On to the Mayfair Yacht Club for dinner and dancing and then down to see some folks of! on the Bremen where I met Dwight Fiske who sings slightly naughty songs and gets his picture in Vanity Fair! Wednesday, July 18 —Again to the clinic to learn more about how to keep you smart this fall, and Mrs. Prutzman fell down in Park avenue and five people jumped to her assistance and I laughed myself silly against a bus stand. To the St. Moritz for cocktails and to bed early. Thursday, July 19—Again to the clinic where I took an examination on just how much I knew! To the Waldorf for lunch (the clinic was held in the Sert room at the Waldorf > then again through the stores. To dinner at Arthur’s that reminds you of Charley’s here and the steaks are no better. Then out to drive along Riverside drive. Two warships in harbor and their eight flood-lights sweeping messages to a pitch black sky was the most awe-inspiring sight of my trip. Home and to bed at the ghostly hour of 10:30. Friday, July 20—To look at the lines and don’t stop me on that one. I could take pages to tell you what the clothes are going to look like, but I won’t. You only asked for the froth. But don’t think you’re not going to be turned out to perfection this year You are. To lunch at the Marguery, where I saw the Grand Duchess Marie and almost fell out of my chair from staring. Proof of my observations she was wearing a blue and white tailored dress with a little blue and white checked hat to match. To Vogue and Harper’s in the afternoon where I saw pictures just in from Paris and swatches of fabrics that’ll tie your heart in knots. To the St. Moritz for cocktails and then again to the Mayfair Yacht Club for dinner. You dine practically on the East river, go through all sorts of tenements to get there, and watch the yachts steam up as you swallow your clams! I was impressed! And I got a swell white dog to remember it (or him) by! ss ass ass a Guy Lombardo Plays—And How! Saturday, July 21.—Worked in the morning. To the Brcvoort for lunch. Then up Fifth avenue in a bus. Back to the hotel, where I found Mrs. Prutzmann threatened with a throat infection (I can’t spell streppoc—!) She survived. Off for cocktails about 7 and then to the Waldorf Starlit Roof for dinner and dancing. Gay! Lovely! Well, the roof rolls back and the stars shine in and Guy Lombardo plays! What more could any one ask? Saw two stunning shirt-waist dinner dresses, one in gold lame. Also Augustabernard’s sheath dress with the cascades down the back, in red chiffon. Black beginning to make a decided appearance and quite some white, generally in satin, to say nothing of deep, glowing prints. The men tear around in tuxedo trousers and white linen coats. Some few mess jackets with cummerbunds. Which reminds me while I’m on the subject of the men—those bow ties we’ve been ranting about are quite the thing. Everybody’s wearing them—and brown hats with white linen suits. There’s a lot too, of gray trousers and brown coats with brown suede shoes and how those men are tailored! Sunday, July 22.—Sightseeing with my young brother and sister, who had never seen New York before and were they agog! Went through Radio City, where Paul Manship’s statue “Youth” is still causing comment for and against. To dinner that night at “Billy Rose’s” just off Broadway—it’s a theater turned into sort of a night club. A swell funfest, different utterly from the Waldorf but as much New York ns Park avenue and Forty-second street! Home at a reasonable hour—and so to bed. Thus ended my first week. The second was my vacation. We won’t go into that. Except that taking two wide-eyed youngsters sightseeing is wearying in the extreme. Pat got sick on clams, Josephine took a violent dislike of the ocean and I was ready to come home. This was it. New York's no place to keep a diary anyhow. I left out most of the business details and the 8:30 to 5 activity. That, most certainly is NOT included in the froth!
A Womans Viewpoint
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON
IS modern cynicism a frustration, a temperamental trait or only a pose? Whatever the answer, certainly the hard-boiled cynics act quite as foolishly as any sentimentalist when it comes to the major affairs of life. Two notable examples come to mind at the moment, H. L. Mencken and Dorothy Parker.
The first, after years of railing at marriage, of gargantuan snickers at such barbaric customs as church weddings and h o n e y m oons, was led to the altar at 50 by a young woman who was married in church with all the
Mrs. Ferguson
trimmings. Miss Parker, woe's me, after doing all those brittle clever bits about the deceitful ways of men and the unreliability of marriage, after having established herself as the princess of wisecrackers and the high priestess of sophistication, is married at 40 to a young gentleman many years her junior. Take a sweeping glance over the human scene and you will find that our cynics are really softer than the avowed sentimentalists. When it comes to the blind bowboy they are as susceptible as any country miss with he- first beau. And that, I think, is natural. Cynicism is, after all, a cultivated quality and in most cases wholly artificial. Men and women are a,;i alike when it comes to their

desire for love and a happy mating. The hope of happiness, warm, sweet, companionable happiness with one faithful being is the indestructible ambition of each life. For my part, I see no reason to be ashamed of it. Also, I think we must believe in love and the pc sibiiity of its permanence before w? can have it. If, as the Bible says, “Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen,’* then love must also be the evidence of things never really experienced. At any rate, it is apparent that sentimentalist and cynic are comrades under the skin. If you would know them, follow what they do rather than heed what they say.
