PI Solution to Previous H Contract Problem BY W. E. MKENXEY Secretary American Bridge League HERE is a very fine hand for teacher's use. It was given to me by Mrs. Katherine F. Peyton. one of Chicago's outstanding bridge teachers. This hand is an exceptionally fine example of the necessity of keeping a card for exit. Against the four-heart contract, declarer receives a very favorable opening, the deuce of diamonds, which forces East to cover dummy’s ten spot with the king. Declarer trumps with the four of hearts and then cashes the ace, king and queen of hearts, discarding two clubs from dummy, Wim West does is immaterial,

but let us look at the East hand. He has to play to three heart tricks. His natural play is the 2, 5 and 8 of hearts. If he does, let me show you what declarer will do. He will cash the ace and king of clubs and the ace of spades, stripping East of both spades and clubs. Now he will lead a small heart, forcing East to win with the ten spot. East, of course, will cash the jack of hearts and then lay down the ace of diamonds. This the declarer will not trump, but will discard the six of clubs. Now East will be forced to lead to dummy’s queen and jack of diamonds, on which declarer will discard his two losing spades and thereby make his contract. How r ever, if East conserves a card of exit and, instead of playing the 2, 5 and 8 of hearts, plays the 5, 8 and 10, he will have the 2 of hearts at an exit card when

By using this exit card, East would force declarer to lead spades or clubs to West and, in this manner, even though he gave up a sure trump trick, he would defeat the contract. tCopyright, 1836. by NBA Service, lac.)

Letter X Has Art Meaning at Southport

High School Typing Class Doing Portraits to Break Monotony. BY ELIZABETH CARR One X beside an arithmetic problem indicates an error. Two Xs at the bottom of a note denote affection. But 4000 Xs to a Southport High School typing class add up to a portrait of Harold Lloyd. After four months of X-ing out errors, the students have an opportunity of X-ing in lessons. It’s Paul Cock-rill's idea (he’s the teacher in the commercial department) that after four months of steady typing “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog,” students need a short break in the monotony. There are certain parts of the typewriter with which the students need to become acquainted, Mr. Cockrill says. “Some students don’t even know where the line spacer is. Or, if they do, they don't give it much attention. When they become employed in an office where squares and figures are required in their typing, they will be glad of this practice.” Get Three-day Vacation Mr. Cockrill allows his students a three-day “vacation” in which they are to hand in three portraits in “typewriter medium.” From keys of students' machines come such reproductions as the Southport schoolhouse, Henry of the comic strip, President Roosevelt, L. A. Hohlt, the school trustee; movie stars, dogs and cats—in fact, 500 type-drawings. Students are allowed three hours of class time, one hour daily, for their pictures, If they care to, they may work after school or take the drawings home. Simple When You Know How “It’s really simple when you know how,” the teacher says. “After tracing the outline of the object, release the roll, move the carriage back and forth and use an X, N or O or any other letter desired for the effect.” Shading, it seems, comes from emphasis—or pounding the keys. Stars are used quite frequently, it is observed from the examples on view at the Woodstock Typewriting Cos., 110 N. Pennsylvania-st. Thousands of persons have stopped to examine the work. It took Clifford Fowler only two hours to type the schoolhouse. Clifford, an art student, used Xs, Ns and Os to advantage for the intricately shaded reproduction. The picture of the President, seated in an easy chair, was three hours in production.

Voters’ League Ranks High in Group Contest Indiana League of Women Voters today received notice it was given first honorable mention in the contest among state leagues for promoting distribution of the national league’s guidebook, “Trained Personnel for Public Service.” Award of $lO for first honors is to be given Mrs. George Gellhorn, Minnesota league campaign chairman, at the national league's convention in Cincinnati, April 28 to May 1. The Minnesota league sold 850 copies within the five-month contest period, which represented distribution to 36.2 per cent of its membership. Missouri received second honorable mention.

MY DAY By Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt

YORK.—Quite a busy day, as days should be when you acquire anew grandchild. First of all I had to see this new member of the family, and it was a sweet baby girl. It is nice to have the weather mild and to see the streets

of New York gradually being cleared of snow. Up to now it has seemed an almost impossible task, and I felt truly sorry for the taxi-drivers. I got into a taxi this afternoon as I left my daughter’s house and as we jogged along down bumpy side streets the driver remarked over his shoulder, “When you came down the street I thought you looked like the President's wife. I've never seen her—only her pictures. Any one ever tell you you looked like her?” To inis I answered noncommittally, “Yes.” Then he said. “Well, you have to hand it to her for being acli”e.” And so I responded, “There isn’t much point to her activity unless she does something useful.”

£?Rgg3gßgsv. >^o

Mrs. Roosevelt

He came back immediately with, “Well, I can’t tell whether it is useful or not.” With that we nearly hit the top of the cab as we went over a large chunk of ice, so he addressed himself to his driving with the remark that “Now in New York’s not pleasant.” I have been seeing some young things today who seemed to be finding life rather difficult to cope with, but I will say that I take my hat off to their spirit. One of them told me she really did not know where the money was coming from to pay for her next meal, but she was rehearsing for a play and it was lots of fun. As long as you get fun out of life, even if you are near the starvation point, youth and hope will win out I am sure. While the rest of us are trying to play safe and think of wise things to do, these young things will enjoy life and probably get a lot more out of it than any of us who are old and sensible.
