Spring Garb Evident at Guild Party St. Margaret Group Aids Therapy Unit of City Hospital. BY BEATRICE RLRGAX Timn \\ Oman’s P.?e f.ditor. WE might have thought that the St. Margaret Hospi’al Guild card party yesterday at the Columbia Club was a welcome party to spring had we not known that It was a benefit for the occupational therapy department at the City Hospital. So gay and colorful were the
guests’ ensembles that the wearers could be in nothing less than a spring mood. Mrs. Donald Carter, who had just put the finishing touches on the set for the Civic Theater play opening tonight, wore one of those tweed suits that takes one through the day. Red and

blue were the colors most noted in ! the pattern; the homespun appearance was heightened by the lnnged treatment of the dress neckline, the bottom of the three-quarter skirt, the pockets and the sleeves. Light bone buttons trailed down the front of the dress from the neckline to the hem. Miss Elizabeth Dale, Lexington, Ky„ is a house guest of her brother, \V. Marshall Dale; she came to the party with Mrs. Dale and busied herself Ly assisting Mrs. Dale in distribution of table prizes. Miss Dale wore a suit which had a black jacket striped in white. A red ascot fastened high at her throat, and her black ofT-the-face hat matched the skirt. White dots patterned Mrs. Dale's brown crepe suit, worn over a white blouse, its bosom finely tucked. Odd shaped crystal buttons trimmed the blouse, fastened at the neck with a brown grosgrain ribbon bow. Dots Popular The white dots in Mrs. Charles Kottemans dress were larger, and the same material faced the brown cape worn over it. The edges of j her brown straw hat were trimmed : with brown grosgrain ribbon, frequently pleated. The gown had a , bright green belt. Luncheon Given Before Mrs. Harrison Bennett 1 took her guests to the party, she j entertained them at luncheon at the j club. Mcsdames J. C. Noblitt. Omer Woldridge, J. A. Leist and F. M. Hait, all of Columbus, were in the party. Mrs. M. L. Hayman's dress was printed in the paisley manner Shell | pink predominated among the numerous colors. A large shawl-like collar turned over the black coat worn with it. A nose veil fluttered j down from the black hat. Mrs. Frank Soverns played at the same ! table and the green, red and yellow •>laid of her crepe dress was smocked over the shoulders. Her chamois colored felt hat W’as one that rushed forward over the eyes. Wears Black Gown Mrs. Albert O. Sterne's gown was black, but it was so gayly fashioned that it spelled spring. Chiffon sleeves were finely pleated from the shoulders, and bands of fine lace were inserted occasionally below the pleats. A band of pleated lace turned up around the throat. Her black hat, which was flattened to her head in back, had a pink flower setting it off. Mrs. Gayle B. Wolfe, chairman, wore her pink basket hat as a complement to the pink trimmings of her suit. Mrs. Jackson K. Landers, president, wore well her fuschia colored crepe down, which had a gold shot hip length tunic. The gold was woven into stripes around the short sleeves and the hem. xr a a Indiana Vassar Club members were to hear news about their Alma j Mater at the Founders’ day party today at the home of Mrs. G.

BEGIN HERE TODAV Irene Gardner becomes an air . tewardess. feking a cure for her disillusionment atrer Bart Ralston breaks their engagement And she finds a cure in the rxaita•;on of soaring tar above the earth and its petty troubles. Though she determines never to fall In love again. she Is rresistlblv drawn to the gay. Impudent Barney O'Sullivan, one of the pilots. Irene s reputation as to her hands off ' policy challenges Barney. He promptly proceeds to kiss her to see if it can be done, and Irene likes It though she proles". volubly After a few months Bart no longer disturbs her. and Irene realises that sne loves Barney. She eagerly accepts Barney's invita- ! tion for a picnic on the beach, but Is i humiliated when, after kissing her. he rornfuliv comments that he finds that he isn't so hard-hearted after all. Disillusioned again. Irene goes on a vachti ing party with one of her pals. ' Pete'' Evans, who openly disapproves of Irene s recxless flirtations. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORV CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX IT was a perfect Sunday, one of those blue and gold days only September can bestow. Irene danced and flirted, ignoring Pete's warning. At 5, when her friend said it was time to go, Irene insisted upon staying. “You go if you like,” she suggested. “You needn’t wait for me.” “I will not,” Pete said crossly. “We came together, and we'll go home together.” “Suit yourself, darling! I donT want to go yet. I'm having a marvelous time.” A man on each side—both good looking and casual and a tiny bit condescending accompanied her, whatever she did. A third, not so good looking nor so casual, tagged at her heels. She had given her telephone number to all three, agreeing that it would oe fun if they “came up some time - ’; had promised to go to dinner, dancing and the theater on Saturday. The fact that she couldn’t possibly keep but one of these engagements disturbed her not at all. She would do whichever one appealed to her most when the day arrived. Never had she been so utterly heedless as to consequences. Yet, she told herself, she was sick to death of men —of their lies and evasions and smooth politic way of invading your life and then laugh- j ing at you for taking them seri- | ously. First Bart, then, in an en- ! tirely different fashion, Barney had trifled with her affection. The only way to beat the game . was to be like Peter Evans, and she said as much on their way back to Pete’s apartment. ”I’ve always liked you, Pete, but I used to think it was unbecoming j in a woman to be so cynical. I’m ; just beginning to realize how wise 1 you really are.” Pete stared at her suspiciously. “What are you trying to do? Kid j me?” “Absolutely not. I’m trying to j tell you how much I approve of you. What could be better proof of it ' than for me to follow’ your example?” “Whose? Mine?” Pete cried, hor- , rifled. “For God's sake, don't try i that. You'd never get away with it.” When Irene laughed, Pete said seriously.. * See here, I don’t know what has happened to you, but it must have been plenty to give you an idea like that. You forget it. Understand? You're not the type. What you need,” advised the hardboiled one, “is a home, and a husband who will look out for you.” j “Oh, is that so? Well, try to find one.” “It can be done, Irene! Other girls much less attractive than you are doing it every day. You’re a man's woman! Soft, pliable, sweet. And nothing that ever happens to you is going to change it.” “But I’m through with love. A girl who falls in love is just putting herself in a position to be hurt.” “Everything has its price,” quoted Pete. “Maybe you’ve been jumping at conclusions. All men aren’t alike. Just because you've run across one or two who have happened to let you down.” Such wisdom from Pete of all persons was so utterly out of character that Irene, already overwrought. laughed until she cried. "To think that I should live to hear you defending the masculine sex.” But Pete stood his ground. “You may laugh, but deep down in your heart you know’ I’m right. You know’ that to the average normal woman there is nothing in the world so important as love. Don’t let yourself become bitter and cynical like I am. It doesn’t do anything for you.” “I suppose I'm just to turn the other cheek and ask for more.” “Why not? It’s as good luck as any. Pick yourself up and go on to the next one. but don't lose sight of the fact that men will always be nccessaary to your happiness.” 000 IRENE could see that for once in her life Pete wasn’t joking, and it sobered her as nothing else could have done. Pete was right. She had been behaving foolishly all day ! and nothing had been gained. It hadn't helped the ache in her heart to pretend to be something she wasn’t. And so far as Barney was concerned he wouldn't even know’ |it. But in that she was wrong be- ' cause, when she dragged back to her own apartment at midnight. Eve opened the door for her. looking like the cat who swallowed the 1 canary. "Your Irish pilot just left.” “Not Barney?” “Yes. he came about 7 and when I told him you were out on somebody's yacht, lie asked me how I ! would like to go to a movie with him." “That was nice.” Irene said duly. “I hope you don't mind,” the other i girl said with saccharine sweetness. “Why should I? He's nothing to me.” "I didn't think he was,” Eve smiled. “At least, after the things he said to me tonicht. I knew there couldn't be much between you.” Irene could have wrung her neck but. after all. what difference did it make? Eve was probably lying, but whether she was or not Barney couldn't sav anything about her which would hurt as much as the things he had said to her the night before. The romance was ended forever so far as she was concerned. Just another light-hearted flirtation between an air hostess and a pilot. It had been her fault, not Barney's, that she had allowed herself to ! think of it as anything more. She climbed into bed. exhausted from the excitement of the day as well as her lack of rest the night before. Tomorrow her schedule would begin all over again. To Seattle for the night, then to Porti land and back to San Francisco. I She was sure the whole .matter
would assume its correct proportions when she saw it from the air. Nothing had ever been able to depress h£r while she was flying. 000 MORNING found her refreshed and eager for work. Her eyes beneath the perky little green hat were clear; her skin w’as fresh and smooth. She looked vividly alive and felt it. Barney himself had taught her that nothing in the world was worth worrying about. She longed to rise above the earth and all her petty troubles; to experience once again the thrill of sailing in the sky to which she never failed to respond. It was another lovely day. Sunny and clear. Every seat on the plane except her own in the rear was taken. Bruce Boynton, big and blustering and jolly, was in command. and there was anew co-pilot, named Robert Steel. Everything was propitious for a

Then as was her custom, i she folded coats, tcok tickets, and brought magazines and papers. She spoke pleasantly to the sour look--1 ing man in the front seat, ignoring his scowl. Another of the kind who was afraid she would try to flirt with him. Every one on the plane seemed unusually nice with the exception of this passenger and another in the rear. “He looks like a gangster,” Irene thought, amused at the idea which she knew was undoubtedly wrong. Men who looked like gangsters were more apt to be bank presidents while meek, mild, little chaps often turned out to be political “big shots.” That passenger with his ugly underslung jaw and protruding lower lip probably was a pillar of the church and a devoted husband and father. Nevertheless his manners were

atrocious. When she offered him a newspaper, he took it without a word and began to read it avidly. His hard, brown eyes darted up and down the front page like flies. The sweet little old lady, whose counterpart had been on every flight Irene had made, chose a saying, “I’ve quit reading the newspapers. They’re so full of murders and kidnapings and such things.” The man back of her, who looked like a financial wizard, and probably was a salesman, boomed, “I wonder if they’ve caught 'hose convicts who escaped from San Quentin yesterday.” He was conversationally inclined, but Irene had no sooner begun to chat with him than the buzzer from the cockpit summoned her. She started to obey it, had one hand upon the door when the passenger in the front seat rose, and she felt the menacing nozzle of an invisible pistol pressed against her side. (To Be Continued)

Every Box Taken for Derby Race Additional 200 Available All Will Be Occupied. BY HELEN WORDEN Times Special Writer Louisville, k.v., May 4. “We’re expecting a crowd of 100.000.” Col. M. J. Winn guiding star of the Kentucky Derby, said yesterday. “We've added 200 new j boxes this year, and every one of t ’em is sold out.” I arrived in Louisville from New York yesterday morning. Bright sun, blue skies and long shots con- ; tributed to the charm of Churchill Down. The track is within 15 minutes’ walk of quaint little St. j James Court where my house party is quartered. All roads in town lead to the race course. Gay banners, big posters and soda pop stands point the way. The original clubhouse anc. grandstand, built in 1875, the year j Aristides won the Derby, remains; the hub. Like some country fair,; white shed after white shed has | been added each year. “And we’ve given them all a fresh ' coat of paint this spring,” said Col. Winn, leaning back in his office j swivel chair and gazing out the 1 window at the rambling galleries | which house the general admission, clubhouse restaurant and club boxes. The colonel's sturdy square figure, friendly red face and shock of white hair are familiar to all Derby fans. He's the "big man” of the Southern racing world. His office on the third tier of the grand stand is hung with photographs of Derby winners. Bronze statutes of the horses decorate the directors’ table in the old-fashioned board room. It’s spring time in Kentucky, which means dogwood trees, red bud and bridal wreath m full bloom. Purple flowered acacia trees and white blossomed horse chestnuts shade the quiet streets. Doors and windows are wide open. The girls are in summery clothes and the men are wearing light flannels. “But it turned cold last night,” a gatekeeper tod nfe as I fanned myself. “Up to Monday we had nice warm w’eather.” Hotel Filled Every room is taken in the Brown Hotel. All the local families who could found a place to drape themselves Derby week while they rented their own homes. For the time being Louisville is having a boom. The shop windows have horseshoes of flowers, posters of race horses and “Good Luck at the Derby” for decorations. Gov. Ruby Lafoon is busy greeting guests and preparing to receive the seven Governors who will be with him Derby Day, among them Paul V. McNutt of Indiana; Stiles Bridges, New Hampshire; Eugene Talmadge, Georgia; George W. Earle, Pennsylvania, and Olin Johnston, North Carolina. Asa rule the big crow’d doesn’t show up until Friday. This year they are coming earlier, because of Derby week. Balls, luncheons, dinners, and Derby breakfasts keep things humming. Those who like their gaming in the evening as well as m the afternoon try out the greyhounds, across the Ohio River, in Indiana, or good old French Lick Springs, also in Indiana. Life Moves Serenely Whisky distilleries, bourbon ads on the front of street cars and talk of mint-juleps provide local color. Mixed in with this kaleidoscopic picture are mules, darkies, hound dogs and tobacco warehouses. Nobody hurries here. There is a a velvet-padded silence to the peaceful streets, jogging carts and leisurely ambling of strollers. Rocking chairs, Venetian blinds, old family portraits and plenty of black servants are part of the setup in every private house. The women are all beautiful and the men complimentary. Louisville has its quota of famous persons. Alice Hegan Rice of “Mrs. Wiggs of Cabbage Patch” fame, lives three doors below us. Annie Fellow’es Johnstone, author of “The Little Colonel” series, made her home, up to the time of her death, in the Pee-Wee valley, just outside Louisville. The ghost of James Lane Allen lingers and there are those who still speak of John Fox Jr. and “The Trail of the Lonesome Pine,” but all these, famous as they are or have been, get second place in Louisville on Derby Week. The ponies have the lead here.
ground-breaking RATE DISCUSSED
Ceremony for breaking ground for the new Flower Mission Memorial Hospital was discussed at a board of directors’ meeting Thursday of the Indianapolis Flower Mission at the headquarters. The event will be held the middle of Alay. The board decided to notify the City Board of Health that it will co-operate in plans to provide the additional 530,000 necessary to equip the hospital. The Board of Health is asked to appoint a committee to take charge of plans, according to Flower Mission action. Airs. James D. Ermston, chairman of the building committee, outlined I plans for the hospital which will |be modern in all details and will 1 accommodate 100 advanced cases of ! tuberculosis. It will be a unit of the City Hospital. Guest Meeting Set Mrs. Ralph Chappell and Mrs. Frank Edenharter will present a musical program at a guest day meeting of the Woman’s Auxiliary j to the Indianapolis Medical Society at 2 Friday afternoon, May 17, in Ayres Auditorium. Style show will I be presented. Mrs. D. O. Kearby ! will preside. Miss Wagner to Wed Air. and Mrs. John P. Wagner announce the engagement of their i daughter. Miss Mary Jo Wagner, to Edward J. Neal, son of Mrs. Margaret Neat. The wedding will take place June 1 at St. Joan of Arc Church. Miss Wagner is a graduate of St. Agnes Academy and Air. Neal attended the University of Notre Dame.
Contract Bridge
Today’s Contract Problem West Is playing the contract at four spades. It looks as if there were a losing card in every suit. But Miss Elinor Murdo ~ woman; bridge champion, made her contract by a squeeze play. See if you can figure It out.

Solutions to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M'KEXNEY Secretary American Bridse League THIS is the fifth of a series of hands by Miss Elinor Murdoch. New York, winner of the individual national masters event and America’s outstanding woman player. A good masculine player will try harder with a woman partner, but when playing against a woman he is apt to relax a little. Therefore he will get the best out of her when she is his partner, and, when she is his opponent, if he is on his toes, he may “get the best of her.”

Here’s a play that might fail against an average player, but not against an expert, because he will do a little too much reasoning on the hand. Miss Murdoch sat down in the V/est. Her opening lead against a four-spade contract was a small club. East won with the queen and returned the king. South trumped with the four of spades. The ace of spades was cashed, then a small spade played and won in dummy with the 10 spot. Declarer’s next play was a small heart, and the nine finessed. 000 NOW doesn't it look as if the natural play would be for Miss Murodck to win with the queen? Miss Murdoch, holding the king of diamonds, knew that the finesse was good in that suit. She had only one chance to beat the contract—to try to mislead declarer so he would not take the diamond •finesse. So she won the trick with the ace of hearts and immediately returned a small diamond. Now South reasoned that there was no need for him to take the diamond finesse, since he could win the trick with the ace, take heart finesse, discard dummy’s losing diamonds on the good hearts in his own hand, then ruff his own losing diamond. Well, that's the way the declarer figured the play. So he went right up with the ace in dummy and led back a small heart, finessing the ten spot. Miss Alurdoch won with the queen and cashed her king of diamonds, thereby setting the contract. (Copyright. 1935. NEA Service. Inc.)
