Right Attire Dictated by Good Taste Why Shorts and Shirt of Mrs. Holmsen Caused Furore in Reno. BY HELEN WELSHIMEB NLA Service Mi ft Writer THIS U the land of the free and the home of the brave. At least, we all stand up and sing softgs about its being that way whenever we get excited thinking about Gettysburg and Chateau Thierry, and how much water goes over the Hoover dam. and how high the Empire

State building is. Since things are that way, if Mrs M i 1 dred Tilton Holmsen. social beauty from New York, wanted to go barefooted and wearing men’s shorts and shirt, into a public eating place at Reno, it seems absurd for persons to make such a to-do about it. Con sidering

the geometric computations of feminine garments worn on bathing beaches and in ballrooms, the scantiness of the attire isn't so interesting. In fact, the issue of the combat 1* quite confused. The waiter who asked her to leave, and thereby encouraged her to write to the management, really wasn’t objecting to the abbreviated costume. His argument was with Mrs. Holm sen's defiance of social custom and usage. Custom and usage pretty much determine the modp. Good taste, which is more to be desired than rubies and emeralds, takes its cue from them. Point Illustrated Nobody would serve pate de foie gras and eaviar for breakfast. Scrambled eggs and bacon are far more acceptable to the early morning appetite. Not that the delicacies aren’t gastronomic marvels In their place! But custom and usage have prepared a more satisfactory breakfast menu. Good taste sponsored its adoption. It ig that w'a-y with clothing, too. The old adage which teaches us that there is a time and a place for everything is the outgrowth of a need. Life, when lived according to the precedents which have been established by those who desired to make it a gracious, happy, easy art, is a lovelier thing than when beset by bizarre innovations. The objectors to the shorts and shirt costumes lift their complaining voices because they consider the costume a violation of certain accepted tastes that society has decided. through an unwritten law. must be sponsored if the social rhythm is to be harmonious. Each Within Rights Naturally the mode of dressing I must suit itself to the age. The : voluminous petticoats of the crino- j line days would be an encumbrance in this motor vehicle age In which we travel as compactly as possible. Comfort Is essentially important. There are occasions when the shorts and shirt are a wise choice. But comfort must be within the bounds ; of accepted good taste. Mrs. Holmsen was quite within j her rights. But so was the objecting waiter. Aftvr all. the very persons whom he serves established the regulations which he is employed to observe. He was doing his duty as I he saw it. Whenever we attempt to step aside from the prescribed routine we must expect criticism. After all, | the rules which surround us have grown up as a protection. They have developed because they are necessary to preserve the greatest good for the largest number of people. They have come to us as a result of good taste, pretty much.

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridge League THE mid-western players are again coming into their own. For a number of years the eastern players carried away most of the honors of contract bridge, but Ohio players have taken the glory this year. I always have felt that the midwesterners are better card players than the easterners, but the easterners are the better bidders. Now that the mid-westerners are making rapid strides forward in their bidding, they can be counted upon to be right up in the fight at all future tournaments. Here’s a hand that was well played by one of Chicago’s outstanding players, Paul Parcells, who recently attended the western states tournament of the American bridge league at Cleveland, O. a a a EAST cashed the ace and king of hearts. He next led the king of clubs, declarer winning with the ace. North returned a small club, and trumped in dummy with the five of spades. A small diamond was played and the ten spot finessed. When it held, the declarer led the ten of clubs and ruffed with the seven of spades. East had doubled and had already cashed the ace and king of hearts, playing first the ace and then the

king. This marked him only | two hearts. Mr. Parcells definitely knew that East held the king of spades, due to his double, as the ace and king I of hearts and the king of clubs was i not enough to double on. Mr. Parcells’ only hope was that East held just the king and only one spade. He returned a diamond and won with the ace. The jack of diamonds was returned and won in dummy with the king. A small spade was played. West played the deuce and Mr. Parcells

' went right up with the ace. He | then returned a small spade and East had to win the trick with the ; king. We now find East with a diamond and two clubs and. regardless of which suit he leads, the declarer will ruff in dummy with the ten of spades and discard the ten of hearts from his own hand. A good example of a strip and position play. (Copyright. 1934. REA Bervlce.
