Alert Mentalities Necessary to Solve Clews in Treasure Hunt at Meridian Hills Club

than ordinarily fleeting. Wc were advised to return to the club by 11. We were glad of that suggestion, too, because for some of us the party would have continued until today if we had had no time limit. Now that No. 13 was pie. “Homes, says the FHA are the backbone of America and one of our club members, who knows a good backbone when he sees one, is doing his part.” That could be none other than Dr. H. G. Hamer, who is building anew home near the club. Before Starting Chase Mrs. Will H. Diddel decided it was a good plan to puzzle over tht .ull list of clews before starting out on the chase, so with Mr. Diddel and Mr. and Mrs. Ben Cohee she did some thinking before leaving the clubhouse. Their move was a wise one, for they were winners of the hunt. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Arensman left the club with Mr. and Mrs. Richard T. Hill, Mr. and. Mrs. Charlcton Carter and Mr. and Mrs. George Weaver thought they would be a good combination to figure out the clews. Mr. and Mrs. Carl Eveleigh, Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Showalter and Mr. and Mrs. C. F. Morrell grouped together for the hunt. Mr. and Mrs. Eveleigh’s daughter Sue Anne, and Mr. and Mrs. Murray's son William, took part for the chase. Mr. and Mrs. John Bertermann II joined Mrs. Bertermann’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ira A. Minnick, for the run. Mr. and Mrs. I. W. Sturgeon’s daughter, Mrs. Herbert Sweet, and Mr. Sweet started out in a car together. Pool Their Ideas The Carl McCanns and Howard Morse's pooled their ideas, and Mr. and Mrs. John Spiegel and Mr. and Mrs. Walter Brant put their heads together to figure out the directions. Air. and Airs. Murray and Mrs. Bose sat around the fireplace at the club while the treasure hunters scoured the countryside. Mrs. Bose’s rust wool suit was striped with a ! rib pattern; her jacket*was trimmed in brown beaver in tuxedo style, and her brown velour felt hat was banded in leather. Mrs. Murray wore a caracul jacket over her black skirt and gold satin blouse, trimmed with marquisite buttons. The hungry crowd came back to the club to hot sandwiches and \ coflee, and some nost-mortems j something like . . . “Why didn’t we j figure that out?” tt tt tt The Columbia Club has added an educational feature to its winter program and women are to have a share in arranging it. Bernarr Macfadden is to be the first speaker in the series of talks by nationally known men. Women of the club are to form a reception committee and assist in distribution of tickets. Air.

Zonta Women Hold Founders Day Discussion Women business executives as a group are not paid as well as men engaged in the same work, according to national surveys. Miss Alary Burris, Chicago, Region B chairman, Zonta International, described this condition to Indianapolis club members, at the sixteenth anniversary founders celebration in the Columbia Club. The local group joined in the national observance of the founding last night. In the afternoon broadcast and at the local meetings all clubs urged co-operation in the new “Status of Women” project sponsored by Zonta International, which seeks elimination of restrictive legislation prevailing in certain phases of national life. Miss Burris quoted Mrs. Bertha L. AlacGregor, Chicago attorney, and status of women committee chairman, in urging full recognition of women’s business and professional services. “Out of 697 hospitals approved for training medical students, only 127 accepted women as internes. A survey of 225 lawyers indicates that an average yearly income of from S2OOO to S3OOO is considered ‘good’ for women. More than half earned less than $2000,” the speaker pointed out. Natalie Coffin, former president, presented a brief history of Zonta International. A musical program was presented by Mae Henri Lane, Martha Rucker and Betty Schellschmidt. Willa Proctor presided. Zonta International was founded to “bring about an enduring basis of international understanding and friendship among women” and participates in movements seeking to foster peace and to improve social and economic welfare.

Control of Tana Region Means Control of Egypt, Former Resident of Ethiopia Declares. BY HELEN LINDSAY EMBATTLED Ethiopia, current thorn in a war-weary world's side, isn’t worth the paper on which it is shown on maps, Indianapolis today learned from a woman who should know. And, in addition to that, she added, Alussolini doesn’t want Ethiopia! She also tossed in a sentence to say that Great Britain doesn’t care if Italy does take it! The woman is ihe Rev. Alina Malek, who lived for years in British and German South Africa, speaks fluently the languages of three Ethiopian tribes, and who gave the Indianapolis Council of Federated Church Women her slant on the Italian invasion of Ethiopia in an address yesterday.

Approximately 850 women, meeting at the Broadway M. E. Church, listened with avid interest as Mrs. Malek declared that what Italy does want is a small section which Mussolini hopes to use as a “back door” into Egypt, and which he probably has lost in a secret treaty between Great Britain and Italy within the last two weeks. tt tt tt MRS. MALEK admits that she is waiting an opportunity to “scoot back to Africa.” where she was held an English war prisoner for three and half years during the World War, and was in medical charge of the prison camp, which housed 2000 women and children. She hopes to retain, even while she serves as president of a private girls school maintained by the Methodist Episcopal Church at Aurora, 111., her knowledge of the African tribes’ languages. She knows those languages 60 well that the natives, in speaking of her say, “When the mother of medicine is in the hut, you can not tell from listening that she is a white woman.” Basing her conclusions on observation that England is not pushing the boycott against Italy as she did at first, and has postponed the date for its observance, Mrs. Malek believes that Mussolini has been allowed to “save his face” by continued victories in Ethiopian territory. But. she predicts, England will retain the section around the Blue Nile and Lake Tana, which represents Mussolino's real desires. “Whoever controls that section, controls Egypt,” Mrs. Maiek says. “It is from the Blue Nile that the silt comes which makes Egypt a wealthy country.” tt tt tt WHITE people can not live In Ethiopia, she says. “It is a savage country not because of the tribes in it, but because of the conditions of the country,” she explains. “It is infested with maleria, black water fever, flies, heat and sand fleas. It will get you if you don’t watch out. Even Floyd Gibbons—and he’s a tough egg—couldn’t stand it, and had to be sent to the coast. “Those natives can stand it. They are lean, hardy people.. They are not concerned with the tak-

ing of the cities over which the Italians are so triumphant. What are they?—merely a collection of mud and thatch huts, often without a nail in them. I don't think the Ethiopians are so dumb. They have left their old men, their women and children behind, and let the Italians take them prisoners. .is Italian prisoners, the Ethiopians are relieved of the necessity of feeding them "The Ethiopian tribesmen are not so ignorant of modern warfare as it generally is believed. Fighting began in Africa on the first day of the World War. From the 700 or 800 different tribes, invading troops took porters and trained soldiers. These became acquainted with the European methods of fighting and they still have that knowledge. “Os course the tanks and airplanes seem supernatural to the natives. But they will become accustomed to them, unless Italy can strike fast. If the war continues for three months, it probably will continue three years. Then there will be complications all through Eastern Africa. “Not only in Ethiopia, but all over Central Africa, there are mutterings against the whites as such. If the war continues, there will be an uprising of all African tribes against the white races. a a MRS. MALEK smiles when she comments on the desertion of Ethiopians to the Italian forces. “If I were an Italian, I shouldn’t accept these deserters with open arms. From my knowledge of them, they are likely to stick a knife in the backs of the Italians,’’ she says. Using an African tribesman’s word, Mrs. Malek says that the trouble in Ethiopia is definitely England's “shaurie.” “That means ‘palaver’ or ‘trouble,’ ” she explains. “The British have colonized much of Africa over which they have a mandate. I shudder to think what has been done in that colonization procedure, in the name of ‘civilization. - They have men whom they call ‘labor recruiters’ to get men to go into the gold, diamond and chromium mines. The natives aren't fooled by that word. They call the labor recruiters ‘man catchers.’ I think the white races which rule Africa should keep their mouths shut about slavery. They themselves have made slaves of the Africans. “Selassie freed the slaves, but they were like our people here in the United States who are on relief. They don’t want freedom, for ‘Papa Selassie’ is like the ‘Papa Government’ here —he will feed them and care for them, and give them security; why should they become free, and have to work for security?’’ a a tt POINTING to the map which is much more to her than just blobs of color, Mrs. Malek predicts what will happen at the end of the Italian-Ethiopian war. "This olive spot,” (indicating Ethiopia) “will become yellow and pink the colors representing holdings of Italy and England. The war will fizzle out, and the catastrophe and tragedy of the world will start farther east, in Japan, China and Russia. “And the Ethiopians will become subjects of England and Italy. However, there is a movement now of ‘Ethiopia for Ethiopians’ under a native leader. Without our realization, this movement h3s been swung into the anti-God movement. In the general unrest of Eastern Africa, agitators from Moscow have been at work. Thirty boys were sent in one group to Moscow—no one knows who was back of that action —to be t-ained in this anti-God movement. That means there is danger of the Red influence in Black Africa.” Pastor to Talk The Rev. George A. Frantz is to talk on “Why Are We Stupid?” Monday night at the Indianapolis Literary Club meeting, and Henry C. Ketcham is to present a requested re-reading of a paper by William A. Ketcham on Nov. 18.

This Proves Bridge Pals Must Argue Some Hands Result in Unavoidable Disputes Among Partners. Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M KENNEY Secretary American Bridge league It is hands like today's that causa heated bridge arguments. Can't you just imagine two partners starting in on each other, even before the hand is played—“ Didn’t you hear me bid and rebid diamonds?” and “Why didn't you take me to four diamonds with a hand like that?” Well, the argument over the bidding was nothing compared to the argument that developed over the play of this hand. Today’s Contract Problem Should North and South arrive at a game contract, with this hand, and if so. how should the hand be played with a club opening? AKS 5 3 ¥9 7 3 ♦AQ J 7 ?

West would be out of hearts and, when he got in, would be forced to shift suits. Declarer now played the king of diamonds and, when East's queen dropped, West took the trick with the ace. Now, if you will look the hand over carefully, you will see that, if West returned the three of hearts the contract could be made. North would win the trick with the king, play another diamond and West, . being out of hearts, would be 5 forced to play either a spade or a club, which declarer would win and make his contract.

W< now played the king of clubs and East failed to play the queen, thereby blocking the suit. Now you can see how the arguments start. “Why didn’t you play a small club?” shouted East. “Why didn't you unblock by throwing your queen on my king?” answered West. When I left the table. North and South still were arguing over the bidding, with East and West at sword’s point over the play. (Copyright. 1935. NEA Service, Inc.)
