Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY \VM. E. M KENNEY Secretary American Bridge League IT is tough to be on the defense. That is why all sportsmen get such a kick out of a good defensive play, whether in bridge, football. boxing or any other sporting contest. I want to rate today’s hand as the best-timed defensive hand of 1933 It was played by Ralph Jones of Griffin, Ga. Look the hand over carefully, remember that it was played in an actual contest, and see if you do not agree with me. The king of clubs was the opening iead. Declarer won the trick in dummy with the ace and immediately cashed five rounds of diamonds, discarding two spades fror* dummy. East let go of two hearts. Now follow the discards in the West hand. West followed with two diamonds and then discarded L\c four and eight of hearts, but

what would your fifth discard be? If you discard a spade, declarer will cash the ace and king of spades in dummy and throw you in the lead with a club. Declarer will now take his king of hearts for the ninth trick. You can not discard the queen cf hearts, for then all declarer has to do is to play a small heart, forcing you to win with the ace. Therefore, there is only one discard left, and that is a' club. This is the discard Mr. Jones made. Bear in mind tiiat the nine of clubs is a good trick. Now. when declarer cashed the ace of spades in dummy. East discarded the nine spot. When the king was played, he dropped the four spot and West threw his queen. This left West with a small spade for an outcard. This is the only play that will defeat the contract. You will notice that West had to throw away a good trick. East had to show his partner the jack of spades, and West had to unblock with his queen, to defeat the contract. (Copyright, 1936, NEA Service, Inc.)

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
Women Seek to Combine Peace Work State Club Members to Outline Support of Neutrality. Concerted efforts of Indiana women seeking passage of neutrality legislation by Congress are to be outlined at a conference to be held in the Y. W. C. A. at 10 Saturday. The meeting, called by Miss Mary C. Kennedy. American Association of University Women state international relations committee chairman. is to be attended by representatives of various women's organizations. Hope that the conference Is to : bring a co-operative plan for state I branches and clubs which will make ! the opinion of clubwomen more 1 articulate and forceful with con- | gressmen was expressed by Miss j Kennedy today. Aims of Conference “We feel most of the conference I period should be given, first, to ini formal discussion of the interna- ! tional relations program of each organization; second, how we in Indiana may co-operate more effectively for peace, and third, our goal for this year,” Miss Kennedy said in a letter addressed to state chairmen of women’s organizations. Mrs. Leonard Smith, international relations chairman of the Indianapolis League of Women Voters, is to direct a luncheon discussion at which neutrality legislation is to be considered. She is to represent the Indiana League of Women Voters, in the absence of Mrs. Leonard Kolb, Peru, state chairman. The discussion probably will stress action of the national league, which has prepared a study kit used by organizations in support of neutrality. Included Material The kit includes a pamphlet on neutrality written by Mrs. Quincy Wright, Chicago, national chairman of government and international cooperation; material provided by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace; copy of Senate Resolution 173; pamphlet on “War Tomorrow—Will We Keep Out?” by the Foreign Policy Association, and 10 questions used by women’s study groups, also written by Mrs. Wright. The 10 questions, designed to measure public opinion on certain aspects of neutrality, are being answered both before and after study. They are to be called in next month by the national league, and are to be included in an article by Mrs. Wright. Expected To Attend Other representatives at Saturday’s conference are to be Mrs. Lafayette Le Van Porter. Greencastle, state chairman of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs international relations committee; Mrs. M. T. Crabill, Indiana representative of the national public affairs committee of the Y. W. C. A., and Miss Ruth Milligan, Y. W. C. A.; M v &. Merwyn Bridenstine, representing the Indiana Council of Federated Churchwomen; Miss Amy Bloye, representing the Marathon Round Table of Cause and Cure of War, and Mrs. Ethel Hendricks, Muncie, Indiana Federation of Business and Professional Women’s Clubs international relations committee chairman. Discussion probably will deal with the Nye-Clark neutrality act and the administration bill on neutrality, which President Roosevelt stressed in his message to Congress. Mrs. Greer Is Honored With National Post Mrs. Tilden F. Greer, member of the Society of Mayflower Descendants in Indiana, has been appointed by Burnham Colburn. Biltmore, N. C., governor general of the national society, to a committee on credentials. The committee is to attend the triennial congress at Plymouth, Mass., Sept. 7 to 9. The next meeting of the local society is to be held at the home of Mrs. Sidney L. Hatfield. Feb. 26. The program is to include a program off “Movie Films of Colonial Times.” The state board of assistants met yesterday with the Rev. George S. Southworth, governor, presiding. Mrs. James P. Wasson, deputy governor. Delphi, attended. The society announces a $25 gift to the radium fund of the Seventh District Federation of Clubs and the purenase of five volumes of Plymouth Colonial History for the State ibrary’s geneological department, i.i memory of deceased members.

Radio Lifts Monotony for Eli Lilly Workers

As radio music keeps them'alert, these workers in the capsule sorting department at Eli Lilly & Cos. reach new records of efficiency.
BY HELEN LINDSAY “The music goes ’round and around,” according to the g. the current song hit, and so do the capsule sorting machines at the Eli Lilly pharmaceutical plant. Efficiency in the department has increased noticeably in the last few years since the more than 20 girls in the department have been relieved from the monotony of their task by radio music, Bruce Childs, capsule plant superintendent, said today. Providing diversion for workers in monotonous employment is not original with the Lilly company, Mr. Childs says. It was suggested by the practice of having “readers” in cigar factories in Cuba, where newspapers, magazines and books are read to workers as they roll tobacco into cigars. Situation Different “There is a difference, however,” Mr. Childs says. “The workers in the Cuban cigar factories generally can not read themselves, thus the readers acquaint them with daily news events and educate them. “Here, our idea is to provide workers with a diversion which will keep their senses from becoming so deadened by monotony that they will allow defective capsules to escape detection. “Thousands of capsules pass before each worker’s eyes daily. They pass from a bin at the top of the machine over a belt, constantly moving, and into another bin beneath the machine. “Defective capsules are taken out, and dropped into containers at each side of the belt, from which they are gathered, remelted and molded into capsules again.” Better Than Rest Periods The radio was installed in the department three years ago, following a series of experiments to increase the workers’ efficiency. Several types of rest periods first were tried out; at one, two and varying hour intervals. For a time, the girls were served milk in mid-morning and midafternoon; later, candy was served at intervals, because it was recognized as an energy food, and it was believed that the sweets would stimulate the workers to greater activity. None of the methods were as successful, however, as the introduction of musical entertainment. Few radios in Indianapolis are used as continuously as the one in the Lilly plant. Girls Choose Program The girls decide each day which of the two Indianapolis radio stations is to be tuned in. Because of machine interference in the plant, it is impossible to get good reception on any except local stations, and usually selection of one of these depends on which is offering the best reception for the day. “They are not only interested in music, but in sports broadcasts,” Miss Anna Pletzer, inspector of the department for 20 years, said today. “When the w ? orld series games were broadcast, the girls listened as enthusiastically as any baseball fan in the city. They enjoy broadcasts of football games, and now are anticipating basketball reports.” Eight different sizes of capsules are manufactured in the local plant. Their uses are many and varied. Used to Hold Drugs Some are to be used as containers for drugs. The most recent medical use of capsules is as containers for vaccines, particularly for colds and typhoid fever. But these capsules which dance across the moving belts to the rhythm of popular music have other uses. Some are purchased by watch manufacturers, to be used as containers for minute screws which are affected by moisture. Others are to be used as containers for cigar lighter flints. Several years ago a New York musical production sought means of

staging a rain scene for a chorus number. They found it in thousands of these tiny, gleaming capsules. strung on threads, lowered and raised at the back of the stage under colored lights. Protect False Teeth Anew use of them, Mr. Childs says, is by a dental laboratory. Recently a large quantity was sold to a company manufacturing false teeth, to be used as containers for teeth before they were made into sets or bridgework Manufacturers discovered that in opening and closing drawers in which teeth were stored, they knocked together and became chipped. The capsules prevented this. Capsules are made from the most expensive gelatine, even a better grade than ordinarily is used in food products, Mr. Childs explains. It comes from three sources; ealf hide, from which hair and flesh have been removed; pork hide, treated in the same way, and animal leg bones, from which knuckles have been removed. Miss Stewart to Be Married in City Tonight Marriage vows are to be exchanged tonight by Miss Mary Inez Stewart and John Thomas Rector at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Don W. Stewart, 5804 E. Nineteenth-st. Palms and. ferns are to bank the windows before which the ceremony is to be read by the Rev. L. C. Nurr. Tapers are to burn in sevenbranch candelabra. Preceding the ceremony, Miss Audrey Lee is to play “At Dawning” and “I Love You Truly.” Miss Lillian Ball is to sing “Ah. Sweet Mystery of Life” and “O Promise Me.” The bride, to be given in marriage by her father, has chosen a gown of white rough crepe. She is to wear her mother’s wedding veil of tulle and carry white roses. Her matron of honor, Mrs. Frank Pollard, is to be gowned in pink crepe and carry pink roses. Frank Pollard is to be best man. A reception is to follow. The couple is to live in Indianapolis. Among guests is to be the bride’s grandmother, Mrs. Alice Stewart, Oakland City, Ind. Miss Harriet Denny is to leave Sunday on a trip to New York. Mrs. Ernest W. Clarke, Philadelphia, is visiting her daughter, Mrs. G. A. Knowles.

MY DAY By Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt
•yyillTE HOUSE, WASHINGTON—-The fact is that nobody can live in the White House today . . . and live a usual American life. “We are, generally speaking, a silly, sentimental folk with a preconceived notion of what democratic simplicity ought to be . . . _ “Here we have outgrown most of Europe in scope of our international contact, and we still refuse to surround high officials and their families with not only protection from outside, but what is more important, protection from
themselves and their own understandable lack of official common sense.” The above quotations are taken from a communication to a New York metropolitan daily and they bring up a very interesting point. If we do not allow our high American officials and their families to lead a “usual American life.” I wonder how long we would have a really representative type of American in official life? We surround our Presidents now with what protection has been deemed necessary from the outside, and most of the Presidents have found it irksome, and at times very harmful. It cuts them off from the ability to keep in touch with people in the way they have been accustomed to do all through their lives.
Perhaps the elected official himself might be so busy with his duties that he could forget for the most part a strictly supervised mode of life. But for his family what would the results be for an American boy or girl having to go out and lead the “usual American life” after four or eight years of seclusion? They would find themselves handicapped for life. What man, having a family, would willingly subject them to this kind of existence, suitable for hereditary princelings, no doubt, princelings whose lives must follow along the same way as long as they live, unless they abdicate in favor of a “usual life” in whatever country they may happen to be. I have a feeling that the gentleman who wrote this communication knows our “international contacts” even better than he knows his own country. I still believe the people in this country want their representative* to be average American citizens leading “usual American lives.”
300 Physically Disabled Lack Care, P. H. N. A. Report Shows
More than 300 physically disabled ] persons, known to social workers,: are uncared for, annual report of j the Indianapolis Public Health Nursing Association, made by Miss J Beatrice Short, superintendent, today, disclosed. This. Miss Short said, was because the association must limit amount of service in certain types of cases because of budgetary restrictions of various agencies. Despite this, she said, no call for help from a sick patient, a mother or new-born babe has gone unanswered. The demand for this type of service, visits that can Trot be put off, often has taxed the staff to the limit,” Miss Short reported. “We are caring for 311 crippled children; 44 patients whose illness will continue over long periods of time, and 61 adults physical:/ handicapped as a result of accident or disease. “Over 9000 visits were made by th* four nurses maintained by the Indianapolis Foundation. These cate for crippled children, patiem,’. whose illness extends over a long period and for adults handicapped through disease or accident.” Miss Short’s report also showed that the association had 510 patients in the medical and surgical division; 981 in the maternity service and 353 in the health supervision service. During the year, she reported, 72,675 visits u'ere made to 10,744 persons, over 10,000 of which were in the medical, surgical and maternity divisions. Nominations for officers and directors were presented at today’s annual meeting. Mrs. Benjamin D. Hitz, president, is a hold-over officer. Nominations included Mrs. M. C.
