Sea Rovers Return; Will Write Book Voyage Started in 1933 From Tahiti, Ended This Year. BV HELEN WORDEN time* p<• i1 Brllff N'EW YORK. Apr;! 3 —Have you ever thought you and like to chuck everything and pull a Jack L/ndon, u> sailing for the South Seas? Ive u!’en toyed with the idea. That is. unii! I swapped jobs with Joe Williams last autumn and gal-j!-r;ed the International Yacht Races .rom the Gloucester fishing boat. Liberty. Manned by the crew of the Gertrude Thibaud, :ne schooner trailed the contenders, nine miles off Newport. The waves were running high. I clung to the rail. Five hours later, they told me that the Endeavour had won. I didn't care. Since then I’ve had nothing but pity for the adventurous soul who tackles an ocean-going voyage m anything short of a trans-Atlantic liner. Chartered Schooner Yesterday I met two boys who chartered a schooner that left Tahiti in October. 1933. and docked at Cannes on Feb. 14. 1935! “I don’t know what you and call us," Philip Carr. Santa Barbara. Cal., said, in his room at the Warwick “Explorers, globe-trotters—!” “I know what our families call u said Morton Clark. New York, “but it isn't printable!" Clark. Carr, George Whitney. G!* n Cove and Frederick Hixon. son of Jo >*ph Hixon. California lumber king, met in Tahiti. A Dane named Wessell offered us hi schooner for a year or so," said Carr. “If we'd put anew engine in it.” ’ Was the voyage expensive?" I asked. Frightfully. But we figured we might as well spend our money that way as lose it in the stock market." • Be idos we had paying guests.” said Clark. "Our first idea was to cruise the Islands." Eat Canned Foods “Never take paying guests." Carr anld. "They demand too much.” “What did you have to eat?" I I “Afostly canned clams!” "Any good weather?" •No The wind would either be dead as a door nail or a raging hurricane!" One guest finished the trip. Dr. P. Edward Swift. Los Angeles. Betty Waterman. Denver, left the White Sh-.dow in the Dutch East Indies, fourth dropped off at Arron and fifth at Bombay!” Twenty-one sailors handled the boat. “Once ni the Mediterranean we thought we were lost, in a hurricane." Carr said. The White Shadow touched romantic ports. "Would you go again?” "No." said Carr. **Oh. we might.” said Clark, “but not with paying guests. It’s too much responsibility!” "Are you staying at home, now?" “For awhile. Until we write a book’” CLASS HEADED BY MRS. DEGISCIIER Mrs. Wiliam H.

\ SINGLE star was framed in a square window—high in the wall—against the night sky. Jingo looked up at it over Betty Lou's head against her shoulder. “And what did Peter Pan do then. Miss Jessie?” "Well, you know Peter Pan was very, very tired. So very tired—" and her eyes closed, her voice trailing off into silence. “What did he do when he was tired?" “He just curled up in a nice, mo.-K-.y bed in the treetop and went to sleep." On a couch across the room Jackie lay asleep, his small brown hand hanging over the edge. It was midnight.- She had just heard a clock strike the hour. Surely they would come soon. “Little blue-eyed madonna—" She opened her eyes with a start. Then her lips twisted in a weary smile. They were alone In the room; she and Jackie and Betty Lou. “I want my daddy,” whimpered the child in her arms. “And he is coming—comingcoming—” Jingo asured her in a sing-song voice. *He is coming straight to you—and then I am going to say good by—” Her head nodded again. She was roused by the movement of the child; her glad little cry as she had slipped off her lap. The confusion of low voices; a door opening. John Dey was standing there, his fac** white and lined, eyes dark circled. Beside him stood his mother and as they came into the room they were followed by the judge and the Westmores. Ann's lovely head was half buried in the fiuffiness of the fox fur about her neck. Jingo rose slowly to her feet and teadied herself against the table behind her. one by one. she scanned their faces; Mrs. Devs, impassive, stony, old; John's, weary, white, kind. Ann Westmore was look.ag at her and for a brief second she returned the gaze steadily. Ann turned away and slipped her hand through John's arm. Behind thorn. the massive bulk of a police officer. Betty Lous arms were about her fathers' neck. ’ Miss Jessie said you would come, daddy, and you did! And you are going to take us home. We want to go home, daddy.” “Better sit down, my girl,” suggested the officer kindly. “If you don't, you'll fall down. There, that's better!" With a hospitable wave of his hand, he indicated the row of straight wooden chairs along the

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. M. M’KENNEY StertUri American Bridre Lnrot A NOTHER of the interesting hands submitted to me by R. R. Richards. Detroit, one of the outstanding figures in America's bridge history. I hope you will get the same enjoyment out of thLs hand that I did. WTien Dick, as he is known to his friends, submitted this hand, he put a notation on it that, “The declarer wanted to catch the king of diamonds; he did, and lost his contract." Before going into the play, just a word about the bidding. Most players holding 150 aces would bid no trump, but here's a hand that can take a lot of tricks against your opponents, or with your partner. The opponents are vulnerable, so why not give them a chance to step into the bidding? If you bid no trump, they will know that you have a fine hand and there is no decided advantage in your playing the hand at no trump. You would just as soon have your partner play it at no trump, if he wants to. Therefore, the opening bid of one club is by far the best. Os course West, who is vulnerable, doesn’t put in one of those foolish overcalls, correctly passing. When North bids a diamond. South should show the strength of his hand by jumping to two no trump. North's bid of three no trump is a definite sign-off. mm* THE opening lead was the jack of spades by West. Now. as Mr. Richards says, the declarer wanted ’o catch the king of diamonds, so he won the first trick in the dummy with the king of spades. He then led the queen of dia-

She came back to Jingo, leaning against her knee. “And, Miss Jessie, what did Peter Pan do when he woked up?" “Betty Lou!” said her grandmother sharply. “Come here —at once!” “But I want to stay with Miss

monds, East refused to cover, so the jack was played. Again East refused to cover and the four of diamonds was played, the king was played by East, and the ace won the trick. The king of diamonds has been captured, but now the declarer has no entry into the dummy to make the two good diamonds and therefore must lose his contract. To make the contract, all that the declarer had to do was to win the first spade trick with the ace, lead the ace of diamonds and a small diamond and he still has the king of spades as an entry in dummy. A simple safety play, but one often overlooked. tCopvriffht. 1935. NEA Service. Inc.) CONVENTION TO BE TOPIC OF MEETING Mrs. V. W.

j C'mon, give us the story—and [straight!” growled an officer. “I think we have the story straight,” Mrs. Dev's finely modulated voice cut in. “This girl, we understand. was a conspirator in a plot to kidnap my son's children. She has been their nurse for several weeks. We trusted her. She—and , this man here,” and her eyes went : uncertainly from Harry to Sam, not knowing which to accuse, “are sweethearts. She has been meeting him nights! Is this not so, Jessica?” Jingo remained silent. “We have done everything for her, I and this is the result!” Mrs. Westmore and Ann nodded affirmatively as she spread out her hands with a futile gesture. “Just a minute, mother,” John interrupted gently. “We must not forget yesterday. She saved Betty Lou for us. We should hear her side of the story.” “Ridiculous!” was his mother’s sharp remark, and again Mrs. Westmore and Ann nodend. Two other officers had joined the group. Harry Barnes and his companion shuffled their feet uneasily. “Go on, John," Instructed Mrs. Dey. “Tell them what we know.” “Jessice saved Betty Lou yesterday. She had dinner with us last night. She promised to come downstairs again—after she looked in on the children.” His voice was even and controlled, although he spoke in sharp, short sentences. He was leaning forward, his hands clasped between his knees. “When she did not come down, I went to find her. The door was locked on the inside. Someone was pounding on the wall.” “The maid who had charge of the children was locked in the closet,” broke in Mrs. Dey excitedly. “And she —and the children were gone!” She nodded her head in the direction of Harry Barnes and Sam. “Which of those men—is Harry Barnes?” “That’s—me!” Harry said shortly. “Vera said she—had met him often at night. That they were sweethearts. That—they planned this together. In that true?” She fixed her steely eyes on the man who was shifting his weight from one foot to another. “We were sweethearts —once,” he mumbled. “Vera's face was scratched, her dress torn,” went on Mrs. Dey in a high pitched voice. “She said immediately after she was locked in the closet she heard a man’s voice. Then they went—taking the children. My emeralds, too —” ana FOR a brief instant, Jingo looked at John Dey and his eyes met hers. Then he turned to the officer beside him. “This is Vera’s story, you understand,” he said quietly, and again his eyes met Jingo’s across the big room. “We have not heard—Jessica’s.” “We trusted her,” repeated Mrs. Dey shrilly. “And now this.” She rose to her feet, her usually erect shoulders sagging wearily. “Come, John, we must go—home.” The big, red faced officer stepped in front of her. “So you think this girl w’as in the conspiracy to kidnap those kids, ma’am?” “Os course! And my emeralds—they belonged to the Russian Czarina. It has been planned for months —” Harry’s feet made a shuffling sound on the bare floor. He took | a step forward but Sam’s hand reached out, pulled him back. The officer spoke again, slow’ly, distinctly: “If this girl w’as in the conspiracy to kidnap these children —make off with your jewels, ma’am, what w’ould have been her object in pulling off that stunt last night—when they could have made a clean getaway? Why would she have done that, ma’am?”
