Slimness Marked by Drawbacks Ooera Sincrers Deteriorate When They Lose Much Flesh. by ivf.i yn *n;i.r.v Tiinm Wrtltr NTW YORK Nov 16—This r*E!fTi* , n , a*ion toward .kinnihas (ton* far enough. It is #ll righ* for to be shapely. but thinness as a cult i? a alint idea! And reducing is scarcely one of the gr*at proelems of the universe. When thev try to fit the erstwhile fat opera singers into this modem trend. I am for drawing the line. Thev try to ‘ell me that opera singers are growing lithesome, in the New York woman manner, and the nice large <.pagh*‘tti-cnnsuming prima donnas are ou'moded and outnumbred I douV that—and if it's true, it is very 'ad Let ua keep our prima donnas huskv and hearts’ and golden-voiced and restrict the akinnv ones to the Follies You can t smg well on a lettuce leaf, IVts Sanborn holds ( adaverous Can't Sing *'T don t say they need to be obese the music critic wen* on. “but thev must be well-upholstered. Good singers are like prizefighters in the ring—they can't be weaklings thev need stamina and strength They've got to be superpeople. with fighting strength.

A year ago women were rushing pell-mell to the get-thin-quick experts, ruining health and disposition in the process Now they go to the masseuse twice a week, just as they'd go to the hairdresser or the manicurist. The shops are crowded. Manv of them tnclude a healthy system of exercise. If one must work at. staying shapely I am for exerrise rather than diet. Dieting is such a sad . process.

ment directors should be of a mathematical turn of mind. They play some very interesting hands in tournaments, due to their ability to figure out mathematical possibilities and distribution. Here's a most unusual hand played by Mr. Sobel in a recent duplicate tournament. It might be | termed a backward coup. Usually, when you make a trump | coup, you try to shorten your trump ! down to those of the opponent on j your right, but here's a hand on! which Mr. Sobel had to shorten ' himself down to the opponent on 1 his left. tt tt n SOUTH opened the jack of clubs, queen was played from dummy, North won with the king and Mr. Sobel, sitting in the East position, played the five spot. North cashed his ace of clubs and then led a small club. As he did not play the ten spot, Mr. Sobel knew that he was safe in trumping the trick with the deuce of hearts. Mr. Sobel now stopped to reason. Why h=id South doubled? It must be because he had five hearts and

felt sure of taking two heart tricks. As North had made a vulnerable overcall, South was figuring his partner for two tricks. Mr. Sobel s next lead was a small diamond, which was won In dummy with the ace. A small diamond was returned. Mr. Sobel trumping with the three of hearts. The three of spades was played and won with the ace. Now the king of spades was cashed. At this point, have you figured out why Mr. Sobel should lead a diamond instead of a spade from dummy? Its simple if you reason as he did. North bid clubs—if he held five diamonds he would have bid diamonds instead of clubs, therefore at the best he can only have two diamonds left, so Mr. Sobel played a amall diamond and trumped with i the five of hearts. If he had led a I spade. South would have overtrumped. Mr. Sobel next played the queen of hearts, which South won with • the king, and the play gave Mr. ! Sobel the last four heart tricks and I his contract of four odd doubled ! and redoubled. ; i Copyright. 1934. NEA Service.
